I believe that many viewers, like me, are following the spy drama "Harbin 1944" with full expectations.
After all, the male lead Qin Hao and the female lead Yang Mi are both professionals in hit dramas and have achieved very good results.
What's more, this time Qin Hao plays two roles, and Yang Mi plays the villain female agent for the first time. It's really full of surprises and a lot to watch.
However, from the time it started airing to now, I have found that I can no longer follow it, and the more I watch it, the more I feel divided.
The brothers Song Zhuowen and Song Zhuowu played by Qin Hao are okay. Although they are a pair of twins who look exactly the same, they have distinct personalities and are easy to distinguish from each other in terms of language and behavior.
But I can’t understand Guan Xue, the chief of the Secret Service played by Yang Mi.
Guan Xue was extremely shrewd at one moment, not letting go of any clues; at other times, she was like a love brain, and Song Zhuowen was full of loopholes undercover, and she even helped Song Zhuowen find reasons.
This is really difficult for Yang Mi, who played Guan Xue's insanity so vividly.
Sometimes I wonder, is this Guan Xue our undercover agent?
Comments from netizens
Let’s take a look at the comments from netizens about Yang Mi’s performance in this drama. Everyone’s opinions are for reference only.
Some netizens said: Yang Mi used too much force when speaking her lines, especially when swearing, and her hysterical venting was not consistent with the identity of the character she played.
Also, Guan Xue’s style is also weird, especially her hairstyle, which focuses too much on beauty and ignores practicality.
Some netizens believed that Yang Mi’s breakthrough was in the wrong direction and was simply poking at his own weakness.
Spy dramas pay attention to the pursuit of details and tight logic, but Guan Xue is confused on key matters, and is very particular about washing her hair, dancing, and drinking.
But this is not surprising. I guess Yang Mi has more experience in acting like this.
Furthermore, this script should be a drama with a male protagonist, but because Qin Hao plays twins, the focus of the male protagonist is dispersed, and it turns out to be a drama with a female protagonist.
The sequelae brought about by this is that Yang Mi's acting skills cannot fully interpret the role of Guan Xue.
This makes the whole drama look heavy and uncoordinated.
Judging from the results, I have to say: the audience’s eyes are sharp, which can be seen from the ratings.
"Harbin 1944" has gone from the first place when it first aired to the sixth place now, even lower than "When the Stars Shine" which has been on air for 15 days, which shows that my point of view is correct. Director
did fail in his attempt this time, and his efforts went in the wrong direction.
Yang Mi’s strengths are shown
The director wanted to show Yang Mi’s strengths in all aspects to increase the watchability of the drama, but the result was not ideal.
is like this: at the beginning, a gun battle between Guan Xue and Song Zhuowen was specially designed. Guan Xue was shot, but it was only a scratch, which did not affect subsequent actions.
To put it more directly, this is to elicit Guan Xue's healing process, in order to show Yang Mi's superb and delicate acting skills.
I have to say: Yang Mi's performance of Guan Xue tearing open her clothes with one hand and taking alcohol to disinfect them was indeed wonderful. In the
clip, the pain Yang Mi performed was quite explosive, and it was so painful to watch.
But such a close-up also exposed the obvious wrinkles on the 37-year-old Yang Mi's face. No matter how thick the makeup is, it can't cover it up.
Of course, the director's careful thinking in designing this clip is not over yet, because how can a gunshot wound be healed in one go?
So next, we can see that the director designed another clip for Yang Mi to change her dressing.
Although Lao Jin was beside her, she still took off her clothes and changed her dressing by herself. This shot was probably for the purpose of showing Yang Mi's strengths and improving the visibility.
Yang Mi’s fashion show
Judging from the trend of spy war dramas, it is indeed getting closer to fashion dramas. The simple style of Cuiping played by Yao Chen in "Latent" has been eliminated by this era.
Although everyone loves beauty, if you want to express beauty, you need to focus on the role.
When people like Yang Mi change their costumes too frequently, they become indifferent.
According to incomplete statistics, Guan Xue has worn at least dozens of sets of clothes at different times and occasions.
Formal wear, pajamas, daily commuting wear, day wear, night wear, dancing wear, drinking wear, everything is available.
Among them, the most impressive ones are the following ones: The one in the picture above was worn by Guan Xue to attend her boss’s dance.
The one in the picture below was worn by Guan Xue to a formal dance. It has a navy blue evening dress underneath.
The yellow dress in the picture below was worn by Guan Xue when she pretended to be a passerby and went shopping on the street.
Of course, there are also what Guan Xue wears at home: There are two pictures below, one is a suspender pajamas, and the other is a loose-fitting cotton home clothes.
Guan Xue is a "vase"
The director may have realized that Yang Mi could not play a scheming spy image like Chief Gao in "Cliff", so he simply asked Yang Mi to give up this path and take the "vase" route.
In this way, the role of Guan Xue will be much easier to control.
Ever since, we can see the clever Guan Xue who was discovered by our contact personnel at the beginning.
You can also see: Guan Xue is the chief of the Special Intelligence Section of the Harbin Police Department, but has a love brain.
can also see: Whenever the case reaches a critical moment, it is Pan Yue, Hu Bin, Song Zhuowen, etc. who discover and solve the problems. Guan Xue's main role is to listen to advice.
Pan Yue is the master of intelligence
It was Pan Yue who first discovered that Dr. Shi had a problem, because Dr. Shi got out of the car early, which made him think there was a problem.
was the first to point out that there was an hour difference between the time of the broken clock and the time stated by Song Zhuowen, and it was Pan Yue who went to check the clock on the spot.
After Pan Yue was sent to the hospital by Song Zhuowen, he deduced that Song Zhuowen had a clone through the word "twins" spoken by Cui Anping's wife.
Lao Jin is more suitable to be the chief of the intelligence section
I was really shocked by Sha Baoliang's performance. In my previous impression, he was just a singer, but I didn't expect him to be so good at acting.
Guan Xue, played by Yang Mi, is like a child who has not grown up in front of Lao Jin, played by Sha Baoliang.
Whenever Guan Xue needs emotional comfort, he will go to the old golden house to seek a sense of security.
As for what is the relationship between Lao Jin and Guan Xue? I don't think it's that important to dig deep. Maintaining a sense of mystery is the basic quality of a spy.
In this sense, Lao Jincai is more suitable for Guan Xue's position.
Epilogue
All in all, watching the drama "Harbin 1944" was really schizophrenic.
not only has to distinguish the twins played by Qin Hao, but also always be on guard against the emotional disorder of Guan Xue, played by Yang Mi.
In fact, all of these are acceptable. After all, spy war dramas are inherently brain-burning dramas.
But what I can’t accept is: Guan Xue’s character is sometimes confused and sometimes smart. Either he can just be a flower vase, or he can be a conspirator through and through. Director
's method of taking the middle value is actually the most undesirable.
So please forgive me and abandon the drama!
