The original story of "The Third Brigade" is a documentary literary story "Please tell the Director, the mission of the Third Brigade has been completed" published on NetEase Human World in 2018 by Shenlan, a grassroots police author.
The prototype character Cheng Bing was the captain of the third brigade of a certain city’s criminal investigation detachment. In August 2002, when he and his colleagues were interrogating the arrested Wang Dayong, they found out that the crime of Wang Dayong and Wang Eryong’s brothers raping and killing underage girls was too heinous, and Wang Dayong refused. They refused to confess the whereabouts of his younger brother Wang Eryong and blamed all the crimes on Wang Eryong, which angered Cheng Bing and his colleagues. So they gave Wang Dayong some "means". In the end, Wang Dayong died. Cheng Bing and four colleagues were He was suspected of extorting a confession through torture and was sentenced to prison.
Cheng Bing was sentenced to 8 years in prison and was released from prison in March 2009 with a reduced sentence. After being released from prison, Cheng Bing refused the security logistics job assigned by his leader as a subordinate of the Public Security Bureau and insisted on going to work elsewhere to make money.
In fact, Cheng Bing wanted to capture Wang Eryong. During the four years from 2009 to 2013, Cheng Bing went to work in Hunan, Sichuan, Chongqing, Guizhou and other places. He worked as a porter, night shift taxi driver, courier, janitor, water deliveryman and other low-level jobs. Finally, he worked in After working as a water delivery worker for nine months, Wang Eryong was successfully captured.
Every job Cheng Bing chose was because he had obtained some clues and information about Wang Eryong, and it was all in order to find Wang Eryong as soon as possible. He went to work as a water deliveryman because the water deliveryman could enter the house and get close information about the residents of the community, which would make it easier to find Wang Eryong.
When Wang Eryong was arrested, he had already changed his name, married a wife and had children, and bought a house in his wife's name. He never dreamed that after 11 years on the run, he would be recognized and caught by the then criminal police captain.
The movie "The Three Brigades" starring Zhang Yi basically faithfully restores the original story and Cheng Bing's pursuit of the murderer.
Compared with the prototype character, the film version only made two adaptations: first, the age of the murdered girl in the original work was changed from 17 to 14, and second, Cheng Bing, who was chasing the murderer alone, was changed into a five-person team. Chasing the murderer, but in the end, as the other four team members gradually withdrew, Cheng Bing was the only one who continued to pursue Wang Eryong and captured Wang Eryong.
After reading the original work, I went to watch the movie again. Zhang Yi's interpretation captured the essence of the character Cheng Bing and interpreted this character extremely vividly and successfully.
has a hot temper, a strong sense of justice, stubbornness, perseverance, a solitary character and will never admit defeat.
When Cheng Bing, who had a weathered face and white hair, found the key information in the bathroom of Wang Eryong's house, his excitement and nervousness were beyond words. Cheng Bing's eyes widened, he took a few deep breaths, tried hard to adjust his mood and facial expression, and then walked out of the bathroom pretending to be nonchalant.
Then, Cheng Bing waited in the community and first called the police. Then when Wang Eryong went out, he asked Wang Eryong whether he had poured oil into the bucket. Wang Eryong did not take it seriously at all and regarded Cheng Bing as a "psychopath."
At this time, Cheng Bing’s suppressed anger, grievance and hardship for many years finally burst out together. Cheng Bing rushed forward and punched and kicked Wang Eryong severely. Wang Eryong was naturally not a good person, so he immediately fought back and beat Cheng Bing until his nose was bruised and his face was swollen. He also injured one of his eyes.
But at this time, Cheng Bing was happy and happy after being beaten. When the police arrived, Cheng Bing's injured face showed relief.
Zhang Yi interpreted the role of Cheng Bing very touchingly. It can be said that he completely restored Cheng Bing in the story. During the movie, I had tears in my eyes several times.At the end of
, the theme song "Human Road" sung by Liu Huan sounded. Its straightforward lyrics and Liu Huan's heroic voice, as well as Cheng Bing and the Third Brigade, reflected each other and this story, directly touching people's hearts:
I want to walk through this road. Destined to see the snow orchids,
I want to break through these shoes with my bare feet flat against the windy sand,
I want to see the clouds in the daytime and hold a torch at night,
I want everything to be done in this bright world...
When I learn that Qin Hao, When the drama version of "The Three Brigades" starring Chen Minghao and Li Naiwen was about to be broadcast, I was full of expectations at first.
Although the movie version is very touching, due to the 2-hour duration of the movie, the content that can be expressed is limited. The TV series can depict many plots and details in detail, and I believe it should be more delicate and touching. The drama version of
"The Three Brigades" has started airing. I followed 3 episodes in one go. It feels really good!
Qin Hao's Cheng Bing, Chen Minghao's Wang Dayong, and Li Naiwen's second brigade captain Pan Dahai are all well-shaped and full of personality. The other members of the Third Brigade, including Master Qi Shu, Naughty Old Ma, Leng Tou Qing Shitou, and the only female police officer Lin Ying, all have their own characteristics, and the actors all fit their respective roles.
I watched the first three episodes of the drama version of "The Three Brigades" . Except for one part of the plot that I think has been "magically changed", in other aspects, I think the drama version is completely comparable to the movie version. In terms of the shaping of some details, even More than the movie version.
However, in the drama version, in order to show the brother's love for his younger brother and his cruelty and brains, swapped the identities of Wang Dayong and Wang Eryong. The person who died after being captured was Wang Dayong in the original story and the movie version. , the drama version became Wang Eryong.
The adaptation of this detail is harmless and will not affect the presentation of the overall story.
The "magic change" is that in the original work, Cheng Bing and the others "took tricks" on the criminals were changed to say that no one else did anything, and Cheng Bing only punched Wang Dayong, but it was this punch that made Cheng Bing Bing was sentenced to 11 years in prison.
He only punched once, so it cannot be considered torture to extract a confession. How could he be sentenced to such a severe sentence? This is obviously not in line with reality.
In the original work, Cheng Bing and the others did teach the criminals a lesson for a long time before they were sentenced.
, I don’t know why it needs to be changed? There is no need to change
.
Moreover, this magical modification is not the biggest failure. The biggest failure of the drama version of "The Three Brigades" is:
After Cheng Bing was released from prison, the plot began to become slow and watery!
Originally, according to the length of the original work, it would have been very suitable for the drama version to be made into a 12-episode suspense drama, but the length was lengthened. It was shot twice as long, and it was stretched into 24 episodes, and the screenwriter did not have more richness and excitement. To fill it with content, don’t we need some boring plots to fill it in?
Moreover, from the moment Cheng Bing set foot in Chapang, the flavor of the whole story changed!
The reason why the screenwriter and director set up Wang Dayong as a powerful criminal with omnipotence, and the reason why they wanted Wang Dayong to flee abroad and let Cheng Bing chase the murderer abroad, was simply to make Cheng Bing, a man who had lost his identity as a policeman, When arresting Wang Dayong, we can do things a little more unconventionally and freely.
However, with this setting, the tone and flavor of the entire story changes.
Originally, in the real story, Cheng Bing went through all kinds of hardships alone, traveling to various cities in the country, working odd jobs to find criminals for 4 and a half years, before he captured the criminal Wang Eryong.
However, episodes 9-14 of the drama version turned this story of persistent and difficult pursuit of the murderer into a curious and exciting drama version of chasing the murderer overseas. And it's not Cheng Bing alone, it's the entire Third Brigade.
Well, even if your show just wants to use prototype stories and characters to write a brand new story, then at least the process of chasing the murderer should be more reliable, and the process of chasing the murderer should be more tense and rhythmic, right?
However, in the drama version of "The Three Brigades", starting from the 9th episode, the plot became more and more watery, more and more dragging and loose. , until the 14th episode, a full 6 episodes, the plot progress was as slow as a snail, and even Said there was no progress.
html What can be told in one episode can be extended to 6 or 7 episodes. How can this plot be attractive?
After all the members of the three brigades gathered in Chapang, they thought they could finally start chasing the murderer in a serious manner. Unexpectedly, the plot style gave people the feeling that it did not feel like they were looking for someone, but more like the three brigades were searching for someone. In one episode of foreign travel team building, I couldn't find a single highlight to mention. In the latest 16th episode of
, Cheng Bing returned to the country to pursue the murderer and ran to the Northeast. The plot was a little better, but the procrastination problem remained.
What a pity for this drama.
Such a touching prototype character, such a good subject, such a strong cast, but because of the incompetence of the screenwriter and director, it was finally filmed like this!
is really a good hand of cards!
I originally thought that the drama version was expected to surpass the movie version, but looking at it now, let alone surpassing it, there is no way to catch up!
originally felt that Qin Hao's performance was different from Zhang Yi's, but because of the drag on the script, Qin Hao couldn't save the plot from being protracted and boring, nor could he save the drama version of "The Three Brigades"!
