Re-adaptation of Classic Myth: Is Creation of the Gods Worth the Watch?
The highly anticipated Chinese summer film season has kicked off, including the long-awaited release of a film that had been shelved for six years, "Creation of the Gods I: Kingdom of Storms". From its inception, this film has garnered much attention and discussion. Director Wuershan, known for his distinctive style in supernatural fantasy films such as "Painted Skin: The Resurrection" and "Mojin: The Lost Legend", has established himself as a prominent figure in the Chinese film industry. The cast is also extensive, featuring over 30 actors including Kris Phillips, Huang Bo, Li Xuejian, Xia Yu, Chen Kun, Yuan Quan, and many more. Moreover, the film has collaborated closely with New Zealand-based creators from "The Lord of the Rings", aiming not only to capitalize on star power but also to create a grand ambition of building China's epic film comparable to "The Lord of the Rings". However, this new epic film that has generated both buzz and controversy since its early stages faced mixed reviews upon its release. Simultaneously, the movie's box office growth has been less than expected compared to the huge investment.

The Emotional Depths of The Tale of Rose: Liu Yifei’s Touching Portrayal
Since its inception, "The Tale of Rose" has been under the spotlight, garnering significant attention throughout its development. Firstly, the involvement of director Wang Jun and screenwriter Li Xiao, both renowned for their urban-themed works and recognized by the Magnolia Awards, along with the addition of Liu Yifei, has heightened audience anticipation. Additionally, the drama is produced by New Classics Media, a subsidiary of China Literature Group, known for its leading role in urban dramas and its expertise in adapting Yi Shu's works, with an impeccable track record.
