Let's analyze the reasons for the success of the Yan Xi Palace story.
One of the main reasons for the success of The Story of Yan Xi Palace is that this TV series shows a state of court struggle with completely different themes, and each female character in The Story of Yan Xi Palace is very unique. For example, Rong Yin, the Queen of Fu Cha, is a very kind person. She never wanted to hurt others at any time, but she was such a kind person, but she didn't get a good ending. When Fu Cha Rongyin finally jumped off the tower, many people felt that the defense line collapsed: Why do good people always get what they deserve? And Empress Chunfei. Empress Chunfei has always liked the queen's younger brother, but in the end she found that it was all wishful thinking. The married man doesn't love himself, and the person he loves doesn't know himself. What's the use of being talented?
Therefore, the main reason for the success of The Story of Yan Xi Palace is that the female characters in this TV series are relatively successful. The audience always likes to watch women's wars, and there are more female audiences, which is also the main reason why a TV series can be successful.
Let's take a look at the TV series starring Wu. There is not much problem with the plot and rhythm of this TV series, which can be said to be a big production, but the main reason is that the relationship between the characters is not well described and the characters are weak, so the audience can't stand it. The TV play is still relatively high, with a lot of data, but it is still difficult to remember it as vividly as The Story of Yan Xi Palace.
These two TV plays have their own merits. Yan Xi Palace can't have the same food theme as Mourning for the Past, but the topic of Yan Xi Palace is high enough, which is the key to its popularity.
