html The beginning of the 2000s has always been the period when Chinese dramas are most likely to produce hits. Now that it is already late January, major platforms have come up with their "killer trumpets", and the competition is quite fierce. In the field ofonline dramas, "Black Soil Silence" starring Chen Jianbin and Hu Jun is quite popular.
A vicious criminal case, the death of three people, and the Northeastern criminal investigation theme, every aspect attracts the audience's attention.
On the other hand, Ku's "You Too Have Today" and Mango's "19th Floor" received a mediocre response, and many viewers may not even know that these two dramas exist. I don’t know if
is better than me, but I’ll be shocked when I compare it.
However, the competition of online dramas is still not as strong as that of star dramas. No, now the General Administration has announced the prime time ratings list from January 6 to January 12. Who is the biggest winner?
To preserve suspense, look from the back to the front.
Ranking tenth is
"Ask the Cangmang"
As the most profound subject matter in Chinese dramas, historical dramas have always had a fixed audience group.
Moreover, "Ask the Cangmang" focuses on the youth of great men, focusing on struggle, passion, friendship and patriotism, and has also attracted the attention of many young audiences.
As the male protagonist, Wang Renjun is able to capture Chairman Mao's demeanor, and he has the aura to succeed Tang Guoqiang.
In addition, the performances of veteran drama stars such as Song Jia, Ning Li, and Ma Shaohua also greatly improved the quality of the drama, so much so that when the drama was rebroadcast on Hunan Channel, was still able to squeeze into the list with a rating of 0.3, which is considered good results.
Ranked in ninth and sixth place is
"Reconnaissance Hero"
As soon as Zheng Xiaolong makes a move, he will know whether there is one.
This war drama depicts the soldier as a scout, a dangerous and extremely important role on the battlefield who needs to go deep behind enemy lines to obtain intelligence for our army.
During the period of resisting U.S. aggression and aiding Korea, too many scouts sacrificed their lives, and the story is undoubtedly worth remembering by the audience.
Moreover, Zheng Xiaolong’s reputation is not small, and he actually invited powerful actor Luo Jin and actress Ma Sichun to join the film.
Although there is an age difference between the two, the emotional line during the war is subtle and delicate, which makes people enjoy watching it.
Although the show's ratings on Zhejiang Satellite TV were average, ranking ninth with 0.38, it was able to reach a ratings of 0.44 on Beijing Satellite TV, ranking sixth on the list. This shows that it has great potential and is expected to be broadcast with subsequent plots. The ranking continues to improve.
Ranked eighth is
"Our Translator"
Sure enough, we can't expect too much from domestic industry dramas.
Because no matter what kind of serious industry drama it is, it can have the visual sense of a brainless idol drama.
As you can tell from the title of the drama, the drama mainly focuses on the profession of a translator, but the filming is not professional enough and is even worse than Yang Mi's "Dear Translator".
dubbed the foreign language part, and his mouth shape didn't match up. How convincing is such a performance?
Moreover, each role is quite grand. Those who know it is an interpreter work, but those who don’t know it may think that celebrities are attending a dinner party.
Song Qian's performance is too pretentious, and Chen Xingxu is not much better either. Whoever listens to the buffalo sound will be in trouble.
Please stop using other professions in domestic dramas. As a new drama of Hunan Satellite TV,
had a ratings score of only 0.41 and ranked third from the bottom. It was very embarrassing.
Ranked fifth is
"The Road of Life"
The play tells the inspiring life of Gao Jialin, a young man living in Gaojia Village, northern Shaanxi, who was overtaken by his college entrance examination results but did not succumb to fate.
not only has the atmosphere of the era, but also has regional characteristics. This kind of subject has been a hot topic in the past two years, and every film is a hit.
At the same time, Chen Xiao and Li Qin are also actors with both popularity and acting skills. They are able to put aside the baggage of idols and act like dirt throughout the whole process, which shows the level of care in their performances.
A good drama will naturally not be let down. It has been broadcast for several rounds and the ratings are still high. This time the drama received a ratings score of 0.7 for Yangba, and it lived up to the trust of the platform.
Ranked fourth is
"The Boy Who Screams the Dragon"
Youth school drama, which I haven't seen on the stage of a Chinese drama for a long time.
The biggest highlight of "The Boy Who Mings the Dragon" is that Zhang Ruoyun becomes the core of the story as a teacher. The early plot of
focuses on the scene of teachers and students redeeming each other, as well as the scene of how poor students make a comeback against the odds, which is both funny and exciting.
Although it is a remake of the Japanese drama "Dragon Sakura", the localization effect is quite successful.
It’s a pity that the plot collapsed in the later period. It not only arranged the emotional line between high school students, but also strayed from the theme.
Moreover, the characters are not down-to-earth. They are all hidden geniuses. The setting of being admitted to Qingbei after working hard for a few months in the third year of high school is just like watching it in a TV series. It is ridiculously fake.
Therefore, 's score of breaking 1 can only be ranked at the bottom among the popular new dramas of the Eighth Central Committee of the Communist Party of China. Ranking fourth on the overall list is not ideal.
Ranking third is
"If Running Is My Life"
urban life drama. The audience has watched a lot and basically understands the routines.
This is also the reason why there are fewer and fewer hits on this type of subject matter.
But "If Running Is My Life" has opened up a new path. At the beginning, the heroine's leg was amputated in a car accident, and the heroine's mother was so fat that the actor's original appearance could not be seen. can be described as a "hell-level opening."
However, only with this premise can the reality of human nature and life be fully demonstrated.
Her husband said he didn’t dislike her, but he didn’t dare to look at her festering wounds, was unwilling to have sex with her, and even cheated on her mistress, who was nothing compared to the heroine. It was so true.
Whether it is the young flower Zhong Chuxi or the veteran drama star Xu Di, they have breakthrough acting performances in this drama.
No wonder that even though the cast is not that strong, the show is still on CCTV, and the ratings are as high as 1.3. What a treasure!
Ranking second and seventh are
"Flowers"
Wong Kar-wai is filming a TV series, and the entire Chinese drama market is sweating.
"Flowers" is a period drama, set in old Shanghai in the 1990s, and perfectly presents the prosperity of Yellow River Road to the audience.
It is said that many old objects were purchased one by one by the creators, and they restored the Shanghai scene in the old photos one by one.
combined with the "Wong Kar-Wai-style" movie screen, the atmosphere immediately came.
Of course, the plot is even more worrying.
Mr. Bao, played by Hu Ge, and Li Li, played by Xin Zhilei, compete with each other. They come and go, and the ambiguity between the two is also full of a sense of fate.
And Miss Wang, played by Tang Yan, allowed the audience to see her breakthrough. She is not only very vital, but also sincere and calm, which is so popular.
In addition, the characters of Dong Yong, Zheng Kai, You Benchang, Ma Yili, and Papi Jiang are all unforgettable. It is rare to see a work where group portraits are so deeply rooted in people's hearts.
Since the drama was launched on CCTV, the ratings have been far ahead. The rating of 1.8 is not the peak. After the second round of broadcast on Dragon TV, it can also reach a rating of 0.43. This is the true strength of ruthless dramas.
But I didn't expect that "Flowers" was not the first place, but another work that was even worse.
The first one is
"The Years of the Great River"
Give way, the noon sun is coming!
Needless to say, the results of the first and second parts of "Dajiang Dahe" are outstanding.
And the third part also made its debut amidst the high expectations.
Wang Kai, Yang Shuo, Dong Zijian, Yang Caiyu, only a familiar team can protect the ratings.
, as a sequel, is not bad at being able to maintain this level.
Only in terms of plot, director Kong Sheng focused more on the style of a "serious drama", with less down-to-earth daily life and more slogan-shouting themes.
is inexplicably reminiscent of the style of "County Party Committee Courtyard".
At the same time, Yang Xun's character of making false accounts also made the audience hold their breath inwardly.
But I am afraid this is the reason why the audience has been unable to put down the show. The more angry they are, the more they want to watch it. The plot is so appetizing that the ratings are as high as 2.8 with , and it is not impossible to break 3 in the future. Let’s wait and see.
Conclusion
Competition among star dramas is fierce, but the quality varies.
But it is not difficult for viewers to find that good dramas are still concentrated on the CCTV platform. Age, youth, inspiration, and struggle, these positive themes are still the mainstream in the market.
There is a reason why the ratings of some vulgar idol dramas are lagging behind.
However, I prefer these reruns of good dramas, "Ask the Cangmang" and "The Road of Life". They can compete with new dramas. It's really not easy.
This also proves that a truly good drama will not fade over time, but is like a cup of tea, the more you taste it, the more fragrant it becomes.
So in your mind, which drama should be number one?
