In the bustling city, there is a convenience store called No. 444. It seems to be no different from other stores, but every time it is quiet at night, it always arouses people's curiosity and speculation.Legend has it that strange phenomena often appear in this convenience store after midnight, as if a portal to another world quietly opens.

Xia Dongqing, a seemingly ordinary young man, has just graduated from university and is busy preparing for postgraduate entrance examinations and job hunting.His appearance is not outstanding, and it can even be said that he is inconspicuous in the crowd, but he possesses a little-known secret - he can see sentient beings in another world.This ability is both a burden and a responsibility for him, because he must learn how to deal with communication and collision with these otherworldly creatures.

In this convenience store, Dongqing met Zhao Li, a man from The Ferry Man who worked as a civil servant in the underworld.Zhao Li's duty is to guide the lost ghosts to where they should go, and the convenience store is the frontier for him to complete this work.He and Holly formed a special cooperative relationship. The former guided the latter on how to communicate with these ghosts, and the latter became the former's right-hand man in dealing with the endless supernatural events.

At the same time, Wang Xiaoya, a girl with a straightforward personality, also became a member of this team.Her appearance added a lot of vitality to the originally dull convenience store.Although Xiaoya is not able to see another world like Dongqing, she has become a key figure in supernatural events with her keen intuition and extraordinary courage.She is often able to discover the crux of the problem at critical moments and provide important clues to Dongqing and Zhao Li.

In this world full of unknowns and dangers, Dongqing, Zhao Li and Xiaoya formed an unspeakable tacit understanding.Together, they faced one challenge after another, gradually uncovering the unknown secrets hidden behind the city.In the process, they also gained growth and friendship, and became indispensable in each other's lives.

As time goes by, Dongqing has a deeper understanding of her special ability and gradually learns how to use it to help more people.In the process, Zhao Li gradually let go of his former stubbornness and indifference and became more humane.Xiao Ya continued to exercise his courage and wisdom in the process and became an indispensable member of the team.

Convenience Store No. 444 has become their common home and a bridge for them to communicate with other worlds.Here, there is a profound story hidden behind every supernatural event, and it is through these stories that they gradually realize the true meaning and meaning of life.

Zhao Li finally handed over Chi You's soul to Lord Taishan and successfully got his own soul back.Zhao Li's soul then lives in Dongqing's body, sharing the same body with Dongqing.

Dongqing and Jiutian Xuannvya were together, and they lived a happy life and had children.Dongqing also helped Zhao Li send away ninety-nine and eighty-one souls, so that Zhao Li could become a normal person.

Zhao Li's predecessor was Ksitigarbha, so his soul cannot be taken away by Acha in the underworld.Zhao Li's soul has experienced many exchanges and manipulations in the story, which embodies the true meaning of The Ferry Man.

《The Ferry Man》Since its launch, it has won the love of the audience with its unique plot and sophisticated production.However, behind this fantasy series, there are many little-known stories and creative insights.Today, we will reveal the behind-the-scenes story of this series and find out.

First of all, I have to mention Xiao Yin, who plays the female lead Wang Xiaoya.During the filming, she was often frightened and did not even dare to go to the toilet alone.This kind of dedication and professionalism is admirable, and it also brings a more real and vivid character image to the audience.

When Peng Xiaoran was filming a scene of standing precariously on a windowsill, she was wearing pajamas and sickly makeup, which made people think it was really haunted.This hard-working performance not only demonstrated her professionalism, but also added a lot of horror atmosphere to the series.

In the play, Yu Yi's performance was equally outstanding.He presented many “firsts”, such as his first time filming a thriller, his first online drama, his first time playing a fantasy character, his first time appearing naked, etc.This spirit of courage to try is admirable, and it also brings more freshness and surprises to the audience.

It is worth mentioning that in the filming of "The Ferry Man", in order to give the audience a sense of immersive reality, a large number of live simultaneous sounds were used.In the later stage, while transforming the soundtrack according to different plots and characters, the noise in the simultaneous sound of the scene was also eliminated.This sophisticated production technique makes the audience more immersed in the plot and feels a strong audio-visual impact.

In addition, the male and female protagonists in many episodes of the drama are all played by employees of a certain video website.This not only gave these amateurs the opportunity to be electrocuted for the first time, but also saved a lot of money on actor costs.This innovative cast combination not only allows the audience to see different faces, but also injects new vitality into the series.

In order to save costs, the director even contributed his own car.This kind of love for art and dedication to the work is touching, and it also allows us to see the importance and investment the production team puts in this series.

In Episode 3 - Lust, Caution -, the “Little Fox Fairy” costume doll enshrined by Xiaoxue, who wishes to become beautiful, was actually provided by the screenwriter himself.This creative and personalized prop design adds a lot of fantasy to the series, and also allows the audience to feel the screenwriter's intention and talent.
