"The Boy Who Can't See a Shadow" is released.
I originally thought it would be another hit from Mist Theater, but I didn’t expect it to be just a male version of "The Returned Daughter."
wildly hinted that it was the lost child of the male protagonist, who looked exactly like Bian Jie, but it turned out that everything was just a coincidence, and Bian Jie actually died, and it was related to his stepfather and his daughter.
The whole thing has nothing to do with the male protagonist who is a police officer. Do you think this is nonsense?
But I have to admit that the casting of this drama was successful.
Zhang Songwen and Cheng Taishen's acting skills are enough to hold up the whole show, so "The Boy Who Can't See a Shadow" didn't win a big victory but it didn't end badly either.
In fact, there are more suspense dramas waiting to happen.
Sun Li and Luo Jin No matter how low-key "Above Dark Clouds" is, it can't resist the enthusiasm of drama fans. Wang Zhiwen, Liu Yijun, Qin Hao and others are also about to appear in suspense dramas.
But if you want to ask which drama has the potential to be a big hit, I would like to say that the next one will definitely detonate the suspense market of the entire summer season -
The online drama " Dislocation " (formerly known as "Intersecting Scenes") It will debut in July to meet the audience, and the show has indeed entered the promotion period. It seems that good things are about to happen.
Therefore, compared with "The Boy Who Can't See a Shadow", which opened high and went low, whether "Dislocation" can avenge the humiliation of Fog Theater, let's check the goods first.
When the plot of the novel overlaps with the case, is it a planned murder or a witness to the whole process?
"Dislocation", formerly known as "Intersecting Scenes", is adapted from the work of Japanese mystery writer Matsumoto Seicho. The author pioneered "social reasoning" and is one of the "three peaks of Japanese mystery literature".
Therefore, the plot of the original work is very rigorous and the level of suspense is extremely high.
There are two protagonists, one is the female detective Jiang Guangming ( Ma Yili ), and the other is the mystery novel writer Gu Jiming.
Jiang Guangming is also a loyal fan of mystery novels. Gu Jiming became famous because of one of his works. When she opened his novel, she was instantly shocked -
The description of the place where the case occurred in his novel was unexpectedly The environment is exactly the same as the real case!
In fact, this novel was copied by Gu Jiming.
Moreover, there is more than one murderer in the whole case.
The first thing that happened was a rape case. Let’s temporarily call this guy the murderer-.
In order to raise funds for the wedding, the murderer broke into the house, robbed and raped the hostess of the household.
Then, the second murderer appeared. His dog always came to the hostess's house, and he also came to find the dog that day. As a result, he was misunderstood as a rapist. The second murderer couldn't bear the insult and strangled him to death.
And these were all seen by a writer and written into his manuscript.
By coincidence, the writer checked into a hotel and threw the manuscript directly into the trash can. The hotel staff saw the six pages of the manuscript in the trash can and copied them down.
She gave what she copied to her boyfriend, but this boyfriend had two things in common. In order to get married smoothly, he killed his girlfriend, a hotel waiter.
After learning that the writer had died of illness, the boyfriend, the third murderer , wrote down the manuscript and published a novel in his own name.
So, the third murderer is usually the male protagonist Gu Jiming in the play.
Everything is revealed, but the heroine in the game has no way of knowing.
Gu Jiming has a very perfect alibi, and how did he learn about the entire case? We know that the characters in the play are confused.
The above is the plot from the original work. Maybe it will be slightly changed after the adaptation, but I have to say that the setting alone is very attractive to me.
Shihoushidi has joined forces, and it’s a surprise that a national first-class actor is in charge.
The most critical part of the suspense drama is casting.
Once the acting skills are not good, everything will be lost, no matter how exciting the plot is, it will not help. And "Misplaced" can be placed in the C position of the summer movie by Fog Theater, which must be a bit particular.
ranks first, Ma Yili.
From "花" to "My Altay" to "Dislocation", Ma Yili's vision in selecting scripts is unquestionable.
And just judging from the trailer, this girl is really going all out.
almost appears without makeup, and the female detective who spends all her energy on the case has an extremely good handle on it.
has no aura, a completely down-to-earth look, and natural acting skills.
The 47-year-old Shihou showed this face completely to the camera next time. The bags under the eyes almost fell down on the face. The rough skin made it impossible to see any shadow of a female star.
ranks second, Shidi Tong Dawei .
Before, Tong Dawei was not available at all, but now he has become a senior in the Mesozoic era, and his performances come and go more freely.
In " Rose Story ", he is an "affordable man" who grasps the characteristics of men very well. This time,
has become a "gentle scum" type of writer.
has a completely different image. When he appeared, I immediately understood:
This guy is not a good person!
’s heart is completely opposite to the righteousness on the surface. He looks like he has been sucked dry, and calmly says The essence of character performance.
ranked third, national first-class actor Wang Jinsong .
We still don’t know whose script Wang Jinsong got, but we deliberately speculate based on the plot.
Perhaps, he played the role of a writer who saw what happened and wrote down the manuscript.
After all, Wang Jinsong’s copywriting on social platforms is “peeping into the truth on a rainy night.”
I have a hunch that after this character is brought to the screen, there will be more exciting adaptations.
Not to mention anything else, just watching the three leading actors makes me impatient.
As the "universal male lead", Tong Dawei's acting skills cannot be underestimated. This time he will subvert his image again, with a full sense of contrast, which will definitely set off a climax.
As for the heroine Ma Yili, it is no longer a problem, but I don’t know what exciting scenes she will have with Wang Jinsong.
Conclusion
Although the opening of "The Boy Who Can't See a Shadow" was not very successful, the suspense market has become hot.
The City Next Door, Machiavellian and Ancient Idol have all become blockbusters, so suspense dramas are needed to relieve the heat.
It is worth mentioning that "Dislocation" is the highlight of the film produced by Han Sanping. I still remember the last suspenseful web drama he produced, but it was "The Hidden Corner".
can put it online in the summer, so he must be very confident.
"Dislocation" is actually very important to Ma Yili and Tong Dawei. Ma Yili's previous reputation was not optimistic. This year, her two dramas have been well received. If the suspense market is opened, she is likely to return to the peak of her career.
And Tong Dawei has opened up a new track, and there is a high probability that he will be completely out of the circle. The collision of the two Mesozoic generations is also the spring for suspense fans.
I wonder if you are looking forward to this drama?
