Finance is the blood of the real economy.
What can you think of when you see this sentence?
The first thing I thought of was the just-concluded "Storm Chaser", which used finance during the Republic of China as the main thread to connect a thrilling spy story.
However, another drama about finance is coming.
Recently, 40 episodes of the financial anti-corruption drama "City Within a City" have been launched on CCTV's prime time slot and officially started broadcasting.
iQiyi synchronized webcast. What about
? Does the name sound a little familiar?
Don’t worry, we will take you to analyze this CCTV blockbuster drama in detail below.
. Financial anti-corruption, newcomers entering the marriage
Qian Zhongshu said that marriage is a besieged city. People outside want to get in, but people inside want to get out.
Finance, why not?
Tao Wuji, who graduated from the University of Finance and Economics, has a "hero-like" name.
He and his girlfriend Tian Xiaohui, like two animal cubs, broke into the financial city of Lujiazui, vowing to gain a foothold here.
can live in Shanghai, which is not easy.
Tao Wuji is smart and astute, and was quickly appreciated by his superiors, Zhao Hui, the vice president of a bank branch, and Miao Che, the head of the audit.
Will he soar to the sky, or will he eventually fall into the dust?
"It seems that the harder I work, the closer I get to your other side!"
Tao Wuji discovered that Zhao Hui, the spiritual mentor he had always trusted and admired, seemed to be facing constant benefits and temptations, making mistakes step by step, and gradually getting worse. Into the abyss.
Miao Che, the person in charge of the audit, has never stopped investigating Zhao Hui's steps.
In the financial circle, the game between interests and human nature.
Through a story of ups and downs, "City Within a City" tells the story of two generations of financial people, facing the financial crisis, and constantly making choices between the bottom line of their careers and monetary interests.
Moreover, it also features group portraits of executives and ordinary employees in the financial industry, as well as broad realistic expressions. Does
seem a bit broad and metaphysical?
In fact, "City Within a City" provides everyone with a concept, that is, how this money flows from banks to society step by step, and what role it plays in economic operations, etc.
2, the cast, I can't refuse
CCTV drama, it is definitely not fake.
As the most blockbuster work jointly produced by CCTV and iQiyi this year, "City Within a City" is almost impeccable in terms of cast.
The first one is Yu Hewei .
No one has asked about acting for twenty years, and the world knows his one trick.
Yu Hewei once expressed his confusion about his popularity due to his "ghost animal video". He hoped that if he became a hot search, it would be entirely because of his acting skills.
Needless to say.
From Uncle Liu in " New Three Kingdoms " to Cao Cao in "Alliance of Military Advisors", Yu Hewei still chooses to break through himself on the premise that he can "discuss heroes while cooking wine with young plums".
Obviously the figure, appearance, and temperament are not suitable, but Yu Hewei still chose to star in "三body".
likes the original novel, but only in one aspect.
What Yu Hewei likes to do most in his acting career is to constantly subvert his previous image.
Therefore, I have every reason to believe that his performance in this drama will be more plump and vivid than the Zhao Xiankun he portrayed in "Ideal City".
The second one is Bai Yufan .
Among young actors, Bai Yufan is an alternative.
Strictly speaking, he is not "handsome" in the traditional sense.
Therefore, some people question why he always has such good resources and can continue to star in such popular masterpieces as "Mountains and Seas" and "Under the Flooded City"?
In fact, just look at his role as Debao in "Mountains and Seas".
has solid acting skills, understanding of the role, and a strong and upright temperament. These alone are already beyond most male actors of the same age.
The third one is Lonnie.
Needless to say, she is 31 years old this year. Just Gao Qilan has fascinated countless people.
In "Hurry", the director asked Lonnie to wear a pair of glasses to stabilize Gao Qilan's temperament, which was the finishing touch.
Gao Qilan, who wore glasses, looked like a completely different person.
In this drama, Zhou Lin, played by Long Ni, not only still wears glasses, but also has some intimate scenes with Zhao Hui, played by Yu Hewei.
I believe that by then, there will definitely be a "hot search reservation".
The fourth one is Wang Xiao.
As a well-known "second generation star" in the industry, Wang Xiao's reputation has always been very good.
The reason is actually very simple - good drama, good acting skills, and a low-key person.
In the ancient puppet show based on faces, Wang Xiao was able to get out of the show by virtue of his own characteristics, and in the main drama, he was even more at home, so he continued to play roles.
In this drama, he plays the role of Miao Che, the head of audit.
As Zhao Hui's de facto friend and later rival, there were a lot of rivalry scenes between him and Yu Hewei.
You said, how can you not look forward to the drama between the two middle-aged powerful actors?
The fifth one is Wang Jinsong .
Wang Jinsong once said that Wang Zhiwen's plays, especially his lines, are intoxicating.
But in the minds of younger actors, isn't he also a benchmark?
From Yang Jinshui in "The Ming Dynasty" to Yan Houye in "Nirvana in Fire" and Lin Yaodong in "Ice Breaking", etc., they are all classic characters.
As a national first-class actor, with him willing to play a supporting role, the drama "City Within" is really stable.
In addition to the above five, the play also invited Chen Jin, Xia Meng, Feng Jiayi, Yang Zishan, Tu Songyan, Zhang Jianya, Xing Minshan, Li Ying, Jie Bing, Li Hongtao, Dong Qing, Yao Yiqi and others to join.
There are 17 talented people in total. I really can’t stop watching them.
3. Root in reality and reject vanity
When it comes to finance, it means being lofty.
When it comes to finance, it is suspended and false, and has nothing to do with daily necessities.
This is the inherent impression that previous domestic workplace dramas, especially those related to finance, have given everyone.
The play is adapted from Teng Xiaolan's novel of the same name. Teng Xiaolan, the original author of
, has a very deep understanding of the financial industry.
In order to further implement the story, the screenwriter conducted multiple in-home interviews with relevant practitioners in different positions such as the front desk, credit, risk control, investment banking, and auditing of the bank during content creation research.
Moreover, through close observation and experience of the work and life of bank staff, studying relevant materials and documents, listening to the exchanges between them, etc., I fully integrated myself into the context and atmosphere of the banking industry.
From my point of view, there are two other highlights of the show, which are the most exciting.
One is financial anti-corruption.
One is a newcomer in the workplace, and the other is a "veteran" in the financial industry.
The former regarded the latter as his spiritual mentor, but as he gradually grew up, he suddenly discovered that the idol in his heart had already entered the abyss.
"I'm going to tell you now, I'm going to bring you down!"
"But are you sure? Are you so sure you can bring me down?"
He seems to be a lighthouse, carrying many dreams and expectations, one night Storm, everything is back to square one.
Second, it is linked to social hot spots.
Since finance is the main line, this drama touches on many aspects of finance.
From cloning credit cards, loan officers to fly orders, Internet loans, to student loans, support for small, medium and micro enterprises, and other livelihood financial services that are closely related to ordinary people's lives, all are shown in this drama.
A strong wind is blowing, and a big drama is coming.
