Pursuit, imprisonment, love, family ties!
clears away the layers of fog, the showdown between black and white.
This is the trailer for the Hong Kong police and gangster drama "Crime Case 2". TVB, which has recently suffered a series of ratings failures, finally cannot sit still and is going to make bigger moves. On April 1st, Jade Channel and Youku started broadcasting simultaneously.
Since the beginning of the new year, TVB's four new dramas, "The Myself Is Here", "The King of Kings", "Goodbye Pillowman" and "After Marriage", have all received dismal ratings. Only "The Myself Is Here" The ratings of the finale exceeded 20 points, and the TV Emperor Haoxin and TV Queen Huang Zhiwen left the nest, and they couldn't stand it.
Even "After Marriage", starring Chen Ziyao and rated as high as 8.1 on Douban, did not receive good ratings.
"The Strange Case 2" is here to save the ratings.
After all, "The Strange Case" 3 years ago was regarded as the most dark horse in the ratings of the year. It was not taken seriously and was not in a good schedule, but it managed to win the annual ratings crown in one go.
Also, Hong Kong dramas have been in decline in recent years, and there are only a few gimmicks:
sequels, cast explosions, and king bomb types.
This "Secret Case 2" has all the hits.
type, the last line of Hong Kong dramas, police and criminals.
stars the original cast of Chen Zhanpeng, Lin Xiawei, Huang Zhixian, Jiang Zuman, Zhang Yingkang and Liu Peiyue, as well as familiar faces such as Ma Guoming, Alex Fong, Jiang David and Liang Xiaobing.
once again staged a good show of a strange police case.
If this trump card doesn't work, it would be a strange case.
1: Story
The first impression of the story of "The Strange Case 2" is the strong Hong Kong style.
From the pictures to the lines, it seems familiar.
is like a culmination of all the great police movies.
A sudden gun battle, the tension of Chen Musheng's style;
The confrontation between soldiers and thieves, the battle between good and evil...
It is like the endless reincarnation of the tiger killing case.
After reading it further, I realized that the ambition of
's "Secret Case 2" is a comprehensive upgrade of the Hong Kong police and gangster dramas.
three major highlights.
The first is the sequel to the Tiger Killing Case. The main plot of the
series is the opening terrorist attack case.
Junsen and Weili investigated this serious case of international killers ravaging Hong Kong. They used supercomputers to search for clues in the Internet and successfully solved the case. However, they unexpectedly discovered that the real culprit of the previous tiger killing case, Zi Le, had sent a message before he was arrested. Encrypted messages and huge amounts of cryptocurrency are sent to the dark web, obviously hiding a huge conspiracy.
Immediately afterwards, a "mysterious man" appeared in Hong Kong planning a large-scale destruction. The "mysterious man" was related to the statue of Zi Le. Junsen and Weili must not only decipher the message completely as soon as possible, but also contend with the "mysterious man".
Obviously, the original cast members are returning to carry out last season's highly acclaimed Tiger Killing Case to the end.
The second is the seven strange cases.
The biggest feature of Hong Kong dramas is that they are fast-paced and not draggy.
"The Strange Case 2" has 30 episodes and 7 cases, namely "The Killer's Ultimate Mission", "The Mystery of Prison Break", "The Story of the Bones", "Undercover Old Lover", "The Storm of the Dragon's Head Stick", " "Rebirth" and "The Embattled Drug Lord".
Just by looking at the title, you will know that there are killer missions, police escapes, years of old cases, and gang leader gang troubles...
There are many suspense, weapon fights, and rivers and lakes.
The male protagonist played by Chen Zhanpeng was once imprisoned.
is interesting.
The third is the return of the "tiger-killing couple".
Judging from the trailer, the popular villains of the first film, the "Tiger Killing Couple" Zhang Yingkang and Liu Peiyue, one turned mad and the other died, but will be "resurrected" in a special way.
Wei Zile (played by Zhang Yikang) survived the drug overdose in the previous episode, but his brain was severely damaged due to lack of oxygen, and he lost his memory and normal ability to speak and move. Judging from the trailer, he obviously escaped from prison.
Youli, played by Liu Peiyue, died completely in the last movie. She should return as a new character and meet Wei Zile again like a fate.
2: Lineup
"The Strange Case 2" is TVB's gold medal producer Liu Jiahao's farewell to his retirement. This veteran producer is familiar to Hong Kong drama fans. He has produced "The Storm", "The Full Moon at Home" and "The Talk". "Love Story", "Guarding Flowers in Dangerous Love", etc., and even "He Comes from the Jianghu" starring Uncle Xingye.
Hong Kong drama ace producer, after Li Tiansheng, there is one less one.
The cast of the drama is indeed not weak, with the leading role of Chen Zhanpeng and Lin Xiawei as an emperor and a queen, and powerful actors such as Huang Zhixian and Fang Lishen as important supporting roles.
Artists participating in the unit include Ma Guoming, Liang Xiaobing, Sun Yaowei, Jiang David, etc.
Speaking of Chen Zhanpeng, ordinary viewers may not be familiar with him.
But Hong Kong drama fans know that he is definitely the backbone of Hong Kong dramas in recent years. He has participated in "Big Wheel", "Heroes of the Walled City" and "Super Messenger".
can play and act. Although he is from ATV, the style of the older generation of TVB Hong Kong stars is most directly reflected in him. In a word, he has a stage.
To be honest, although he has not been reused by Wireless in recent years, compared with many actors of the same age, Chen Zhanpeng's acting skills and audience popularity are already much higher. Moreover, when filming the drama, he will take it one step at a time. If he participates in the show, he will definitely be able to sustain the show.
Secondly, Alex Fong
was a Hong Kong romantic comedy niche back then, and gradually settled in TVB.
He plays the genius biology professor Tang Guanfeng, who is also a key helper for the protagonists this season to deal with the international killer gang. Alex Fong, who was at the peak of
, has performed in many romantic comedies by Ye Nianchen. Because TVB is not very popular, his joining can bring a fresh performance style to the series.
hopes that this Hong Kong film star will shine again in TVB police dramas.
Also, Lin Xiawei is back, and the "defying cp" will most likely continue to be in the spotlight.
Feng Yingying was named a national fairy by netizens last time. She returns in the sequel. Not only does she have other emotional arrangements, but she will also bring the male and female protagonists together.
In addition to the former Shaw Brothers martial arts representative David Jiang, Ma Guoming, who is everywhere, Sun Yaowei, the "most beautiful Akko" Liang Xiaobing and other talented actors who play unit roles,
tvb The last thing to worry about is acting skills.
3: Hong Kong flavor
Some people say that "The Strange Case" is not worthy of its name. Except for the tiger killing case and the missing bullet case, no case in the first season can be regarded as a strange case.
I don't entirely agree.
Compared with the strange case itself, the biggest advantage of this series is actually that it has the traditional strong conflict and fast pace of Hong Kong dramas.
One case after another, one character after another.
Hot scenes, layers of in-depth suspense reversals.
Pure Hong Kong flavor, forcing you to take the bait.
What is more attractive than the strange case is its "high density".
One sentence and one plot can make you nervous for a long time.
For example, the international killer team at the beginning of the sequel, the suspense of the tiger couple, and the unsolved case of 30-year-old bones.
Although Hong Kong dramas are in decline, there are still three points in the bad ship.
The Hong Kong flavor of police dramas is the unique secret of Hong Kong dramas.
Only in Hong Kong dramas can we see the hesitation of the protagonist's humanity and the suspense of the protagonist's fate. This is why "The Strange Case" is worth watching.
Justice is not inevitable.
There is a contradiction, so drama can be established.
Instead of starting from the beginning, it became a must-win cops and robbers game.
Despite the limited creativity of Hong Kong dramas today, strange cases may not always be strange cases.
But a drama.
has fun.
This sequel to the hit movie is always worth following.
