The spy war has changed the idol drama, what a hearty and explosive change!
The plot of "Storm Chaser" has developed to more than 20 episodes. I thought it would be an exciting confrontation between the two sides. The male protagonist finally succeeded in taking sides and started a battle of wits and courage with the second male protagonist.
However, as the drama continued to air, the "CP stew" began inexplicably.
There are two deputy CPs. One pair is the characters played by Wang Yang and Gao Lu.
There is actually no need to say more here. After all, they are a couple in the play, but the director even wanted to film the first meeting of these two.
The two of them acted coquettishly and had no role in promoting the plot. It was simply baffling.
Another pair of CPs is a bit exciting, the spy chief and his mistress and singer.
The acting skills of both actors are excellent, so they focus on this pair of CPs. The audience is actually quite excited to see this, but besides these two, there are three pairs of CPs behind them.
The first couple is the male and female protagonist.
Wei Ruolai and Shen Jinzhen, whether they are a poor boy and a rich girl, or an innocent novice and an underground party, the contrasting settings show that the two are a match made in heaven.
But in fact, the two people basically have no emotional communication and interaction, and they even rely on other characters to promote the emotional line.
So where did the emotional line that should have gone -
Wei Ruolai and Shen Tunan.
That’s right, it’s the male lead and the second male lead.
The second male protagonist is the leader in the financial industry, while the male protagonist is like a little white flower. He has no power to restrain the chicken, but he has to protect "Mr." with all his life.
And when the second male lead discovered the suffering of the male lead, he felt so distressed.
The two of them go back and forth and make eye contact, and the second male lead is always able to save the male protagonist at critical moments.
After looking around, it turns out that Wei Ruolai is the real heroine.
I thought it was outrageous enough to reach this point, but unexpectedly another one popped up later -
Wei Ruolai and Niu Chunmiao.
Niu Chunmiao was Wei Ruolai's fiancée whom he had arranged to marry when he was in his hometown. Since she came from the countryside, her behavior must be quite vulgar, which may offend people in the early stage.
However, when he clicked on the comment area, netizens' shouts rushed out of the screen -
"Wow, what a knock."
was heard screaming again.
Wait a minute, did I go to the wrong place? This is really not the Pampering Theater, is it?
From the time Niu Chunmiao appeared, "Wind Chaser" has really gradually drifted away with the wind.
Niu Chunmiao is from the countryside, and it is obvious that the director wants to use her to create a sharp contrast with the heroine Shen Jinzhen.
However, whether it is the lines, the plot or the actors' performances, this character is completely in line with the routines of modern urban dramas. At the beginning of
, these ladies directly come to outsmart the thief.
What a good guy, his techniques were cleaner than those of thieves, and he even took the money away right in front of his face. Is this a Lianjiazi?
After that, he talked to the police with a smile, and the thief gave up and ran away.
No, sister, are you from the countryside?
When we arrived at the door of the Central Bank, someone came directly and announced his family name: "My name is Niu Chunmiao, from Jiangxi, and my gender is female."
Such familiar words were uttered by a little girl walking down from a spy movie during the Republic of China.
sounds awkward.
Then, she spoke again -
"How much does your sofa cost?"
"How much is the monthly rent?"
"Then if I buy a few apartments and collect rent, wouldn't that make a lot of money?"
Wait a minute, as a wild girl from the countryside, I came to the big city of Shanghai.
was dressed in such rags, but he could speak such modern words. The words "sofa", "rent" and "apartment" didn't feel unfamiliar at all. He didn't even need to explain it, and there were no barriers to communication with the male protagonist.
Isn’t this just a proper modern person?
With such a personality, he can even say a few idioms in front of a woman who is suspected of having an affair with her fiancé.
is so smart, well-educated, and has a spoiled temper. Regardless of her appearance, she is probably more like a rich lady than the heroine.
His thoughts are so avant-garde and trendy. Except for his tattered clothes, his behavior is no different from that of city dwellers. So where does Niu Chunmiao's "vulgarity" manifest itself?
There is no doubt that it is a matter of position.
obviously has a very smart little head, but when he meets the second male lead, all the bullshit he talks about comes out.
In the past, he could still outsmart the thief and try his best to make some tricks. But when he got to the second male lead, it was as if there was no string in his head, and he even started to curse outright.
Remember that there was a hint in the first episode that underground gangs are rampant in the hero's hometown, and people in the countryside like Niu Chunmiao should actually understand how serious this matter is.
It is very obvious that the character Niu Chunmiao is actually a proper tool man.
In my opinion, there is actually nothing wrong with the actor's performance, because the setting given to her in the script is relatively fragmented.
is sometimes good and sometimes bad, sometimes smart and sometimes stupid. The screenwriter
wanted to use her to promote the relationship between the male and female protagonists, but also wanted to write out the contrast between the characters. It was both necessary and necessary, but the result was that the writing was completely different.
In fact, this kind of character setting in the countryside has not appeared in spy war dramas.
is like Tao Yuling in " Stalker ".
not only has the living habits of living in the countryside for decades, but is also bold and careful. Jiang Xin's acting skills make up for many vacancies in the character.
And the most classic one is "Latent".
Yao Chen has played Wang Cuiping into a classic among classics. Coupled with the tacit cooperation with Sun Honglei, the two people's seamless acting skills can even be written into textbooks.
The performances of the two actors above actually brought out the two personalities of the characters vividly.
As an underground party member, it goes without saying that he is witty, courageous and calm. The most important thing is how to use rough and subtle details to deceive the bad guys through performances.
This is the key role of identity contrast.
Conclusion
What is so awkward about "Storm Chaser"?
In my opinion, the main line of the story is too biased.
In fact, in a spy war, the most important things are "espionage" and "war", and "Storm Chaser" neither shows how the underground party is walking on thin ice, nor does it truly depict the tense situation.
There are too many things I want to talk about, spy chiefs, singers, underground party members, financial practitioners, and here comes another fiancée from the countryside.
The more I watch it, the less it feels like a spy movie, especially Niu Chunmiao's character design is too modern.
Almost every line is matched with the actor's expression, and it can be directly translated into an urban drama without any sense of dissonance.
"But you are not suitable for working hard in a big city."
No one thought this was out of the ordinary when filming. I think this is the biggest tragedy in today's spy market.
The plot has developed to the present. The male protagonist has grown up, but for the time being, he still follows Shen Tunan unswervingly.
On the other hand, Shen Jinzhen has also taken action. Let's wait and see whether the following plot can regain the remaining reputation and give the audience a surprise!
