I guess that many people will no longer feel the drama shortage recently, because two major dramas were released on CCTV on the same day, one is " Cheng Huan Ji " starring Yang Zi , Xu Kai and others, and the other This is partly due to the fact that "City Within a City" starring He Wei and Bai Yufan was launched on the same day, but there has been a split in word-of-mouth. So which one of the two dramas is better?
"The Story of Cheng Huan" has great stamina and its popularity is far ahead
In fact, the drama "The Story of Cheng Huan" is an urban life emotional drama. In this drama, Yang Zi plays the heroine Mai Cheng Huan. The emotional weight in the movie is full. As a young celebrity born in the 1990s, I have to say that Yang Zi is very good at selecting scripts and has a very vicious vision.
The heroine Mai Chenghuan was born in Shanghai since she was a child. She has been loved by her parents. Under the strict discipline of her mother, Mai Chenghuan has always longed for her own independence and freedom.
From the perspective of character setting, Mai Chenghuan and her mother are very typical Chinese mother and daughter. The mother always wants to control her children, and even hopes that their children will develop according to the growth trajectory she has set.
Therefore, it is easy for independent growth to collide with traditional thinking, and communication and coordination will become difficult. In this family line, the design of the family roles is very distinct, and the actors' acting skills still have a sense of immersion.
In the line of love, Mai Chenghuan is also very bumpy. Although she said her boyfriend was from a rich family, she kept hiding her true identity from Mai Chenghuan and lied that she was born in poverty. However, after the man's parents learned about this, they believed that Mai Chenghuan's status was very different from theirs. , and also looked down upon them very poorly.
After her love was blocked, Mai Chenghuan had to face challenges in the workplace again. The cake she accidentally made was mistaken by her colleagues for a work meeting, which undoubtedly brought practical results to her career. A real crisis.
With the three main threads of family, love and career intertwined, it can be said that the drama "Cheng Huan Ji" has full potential. Just one day after it was launched, the number of pop-up interactions exceeded 5 million. It can be said that Yang Zi is The backbone of this show. The drama "Cheng Huan Ji" vividly interprets the cruelty of life, and the down-to-earth plot is also very immersive.
"City Within the City" is divorced from reality and has an exaggerated plot
. Different from "The Story of Cheng Huan", "City Within the City" tells the story of two generations of financial people facing the financial crisis and constantly making choices between their career bottom line and monetary interests.
Originally, the audience saw that the actors assembled in "City Within the City" were all extraordinary, especially with Yu Hewei and Wang Xiao as the leading actors. Unexpectedly, no matter how superb their acting skills were, they could not support the unprofessional plot.
The reason why the plot of "City Within a City" is unprofessional is because it is divorced from reality and too exaggerated. Many details in the drama cannot withstand scrutiny. For example, bank staff lack basic common sense. This is supposed to be a drama about finance, but many details are not hard-core enough to support it.
You must know that the most important core of financial-themed film and television works is to give them another layer of meaning: to expose the ruthlessness of the capital market to more people. It seems to be about financial struggles, but it actually revolves around people's hearts. "City Within a City" does not highlight this aspect and is out of touch with the public and lacks resonance.
It can be seen from this that comparing the two dramas, the difference is not even one star. Of course, these are all the author's opinions. What do you think of "Cheng Huan Ji" and "City Within a City"? Which drama do you like more? Welcome to actively leave a message for discussion below!
