is directed by Liu Guotong, written by Fei Huijun and Li Xiaoliang, and starring Jin Dong , Cheng Yi , Cai Wenjing , and the TV series " Bottom Line " is on the air. At the beginning, the trial surrounding the case in the play also attracted attention.
What is the bottom line? In fact, it is what we call "degree" in our daily life. Maintaining this degree can ensure the normal operation of things, and once this degree is exceeded, it often means qualitative change. The reason why today's society can maintain an orderly order is because the bottom line of the law plays a vital role in guaranteeing.
Beginning with "I heard "Shao" in Qi, and I don't know the taste of meat in March", Confucius 's admiration for "truth, goodness and beauty" has been established, and it is still an important criterion for evaluating works of art. The author will use this evaluation dimension to expand "Anatomy" of the TV series "The Bottom Line".
Seek truth: take "truth" from life, try to restore the whole picture
It is reported that from the preparatory stage of filming, the "Bottom Line" project team has organized a systematic collection team to go to Changsha, Hengyang, Beijing, Shanghai, Hangzhou, Shenzhen, Guangzhou and other more than 60 courts and mediation organizations to conduct field research. , and successively interviewed more than 200 court workers in the front line, and collected more than 500 representative cases of various types in detail, so as to not only have a deep understanding of the organizational structure and operation mechanism of the court, but also be able to put themselves in their shoes to understand The daily life of court workers inside and outside the court, as well as the specific content of various cases that emerge in an endless stream. The so-called truth comes from this step-by-step interview and investigation and data collection.
In terms of case restoration, as my country's first rule of law drama with a panoramic view of the latest achievements of the judicial reform of the people's courts, a major feature of "Bottom Line" is that it has achieved multi-angle and all-round coverage in time and space. The plot is ups and downs, fascinating, and gripping, but at the same time, "Bottom Line" is not about the big things that happened in the courthouse, but a broader perspective, which further broadens the narrative space and time of the whole play.
is only concerned with the "sudden death case of an anchor in the live broadcast room" described in the first two episodes. The way "Bottom Line" handles this case is by no means a flat presentation of a single-dimensional perspective like a general rule of law drama. It shows the audience the facts of the case and a series of ins and outs surrounding the case in detail. The effect of this has shortened the distance between the audience and the judge's work site to a large extent. It is precisely because of this that the purpose of enhancing the real look and feel of the TV series has been achieved.
The audience watching "Bottom Line" will have a very strong feeling: the cases in the real society are never black and white, but there are many different aspects, there are different versions of "truth", that is, There are all kinds of unexpected inversions. Therefore, it is not an easy task to break through the many obstacles and the fog to see the sun and see what reality is really like. With the arduous journey of the truth gradually emerging, the audience also seemed to follow the judge's perspective and learned the ups and downs behind the labor dispute.
Seeking goodness: no black or white, returning to the essence of the event Difficulties and dangers, a moving story of fulfilling the original mission and adhering to the belief in the rule of law.
First of all, as the protagonists of the film Fang Yuan, Zhou Yi'an and Ye Xin will undoubtedly be "good people" in traditional film and television works, but in the TV series "The Bottom Line", you can see Fang Yuan neglecting his family due to work and quarreling with his wife , and subsequently encountered stab wounds and revenge by the parties; Zhou Yi'an is smart and clever, but is often considered to be too flexible, hovering on the edge of the rules, or even non-compliant; Ye Xin is an idealist..."Good people" are relative, But "goodness" is himThe sparkling qualities in them.
Secondly, the "seeking goodness" of the TV series "The Bottom Line" is also reflected in the insight into human nature in real life. There is no absolute villain in the play, each character is complex, and the villain also has a soft heart side. In many intricate cases, such as the "Sudden Death of Anchor Live Streaming", "Workplace Sexual Harassment", "Transnational Divorce", "Piano Sharing", "Celebrity False Complaint", conflicts and disputes are constantly being staged, and all kinds of small people appear, but it is difficult to be directly The "good" or "evil" are defined as "human beings" who strive to live in a bitter and happy life.
Take the sudden death of an anchor mentioned in the article as an example. The story focuses on the emerging industry of live broadcasting, and involves a labor dispute between the MCN agency and the anchor on whether to sign a contract and clarify the employment relationship. The girl who died His parents and family members were also involved in the case in order to seek justice, and they even made trouble in the case filing hall when the leaders of the Supreme Court came to Xingcheng District People's Court for investigation, which caused a certain degree of difficulty in handling the case. Xiaoxiao's case not only revealed the common problems of some current anchors lacking labor security due to contract issues with MCN agencies, but also revealed the unusual personality problems of this case through details. There is no so-called "non-black" in the case That is white.” This also makes it necessary for judges to clear the fog between law, reason, and emotion, explore the essence of the incident, and make a fair trial.
Seeking Beauty: Diversified Artistic Techniques, Awakening Empathy with
In terms of artistic techniques, the whole play of "The Bottom Line" is full of fireworks, and the overall artistic concept and the use of lens language are more sophisticated. The entire TV series does not adopt a step-by-step chronological narration, but constantly changes the time and space of the interlude, trying to let the audience understand the complete picture of each case and each case handling process. Therefore, in terms of audience's acceptance, what they see must be rich content from multiple angles and aspects: not only the first scene of the case, but also the ins and outs before and after the case; both court workers shine in different trial positions Their daily work and their respective lives outside the courthouse after get off work; both the fine tradition of three generations of court personnel passed down from generation to generation, and the touching and selfless dedication of the court police officers in the new era, which aroused the audience. Inner sympathy and empathy.
sings the main melody and celebrates the new era of Acura. Under the guidance of Supreme People's Court and State Administration of Radio, Film and Television , as a key repertoire of Hunan Radio and Television to meet the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, "Bottom Line" has achieved careful research in the early stage, careful planning in the mid-term and detailed planning in the later stage. The meticulous shooting of the film presents high-quality content that combines storytelling and ideology. On the other hand, "Bottom Line" is also not out of the norm in terms of art form and expression techniques. It unfolds simultaneously through multiple timelines, multiple clues, and multiple perspectives. With a very realistic plot and convincing story details, it presents a rather complex and three-dimensional reality to the audience, creating a benchmark rule of law TV series that is close to the times and rooted in the people.
