The two most popular themes, Costume dramas and suspense dramas have always been a life-and-death battle.
Although the audience groups of the two genres are different, a hit drama in one genre is bound to seize the popularity of the other genre.
And costume dramas and suspense dramas are genres with considerable output and easy to produce high-quality products. It is not a show where you sing and I take the stage, but a showdown between the best.
For example, the currently popular " Sauvignon Blanc 2" and " Misplaced " have allowed these two types of themes to compete again.
But the popularity and reputation are about the same, so it must be a close tie.
Let’s take a look at the upcoming new dramas to see which type of themes can make them more popular, which will once again set off a craze for watching dramas.
After watching the dramas in the waiting list, this time I want to bet on a suspense drama.
Not only Sun Li , "Beyond the Clouds" with Luo Jin and the original cast of "White Night" returns, and there is also a strange combination, but I have a feeling that it will become a hit "" "Secrets of the Sea".
I boldly predict that once this suspense drama comes out, all other types of dramas in the Chinese drama market will become inferior.
One, sisters each have their own secrets, complicated emotional entanglements
After the explosion of suspense dramas, the advantage is that the number of dramas of the same type has increased significantly, but the disadvantages are also very obvious, and the plot setting begins. It’s all the same.
Most suspense dramas habitually use bizarre cases as the entry point for the sake of suspense and scale. Although
is a very profitable password to attract viewers, it will inevitably make the audience tired after using it for a long time.
If you want to break the situation, you naturally have to break the rules in terms of plot settings.
Although there is also a serial murder setting in "Secret of the Sea", the overall plot content is different everywhere.
This drama focuses on the forensic doctor Tong Yan, and a twin sister who looks exactly like her but has completely different personalities.
That year, she learned that her sister had been raped and murdered. This case also became an indelible pain in her heart. After becoming a forensic doctor, Tong Yan continued to pay attention to this case until the murderer reappeared 24 years later. .
But what Tong Yan didn’t expect was that not only the murderer but also his deceased sister appeared with him.
The suspense begins here. What is the truth behind the murder of my sister? Why has my sister never contacted her in 24 years?
What is even stranger is that the sister is inextricably linked to the serial murder case being investigated by the police station.
The relationship between sisters shown in the trailer is even more shocking. The sleeping sister is lying sideways on the bed, and the younger sister suddenly appears from behind, showing a weird smile.
When my sister told the story between the two, she also emphasized that she saw that her sister was living a good life now and was unwilling to give in.
html Is there another hidden story behind the case 224 years ago? What kind of ulterior secrets do these two sisters have?
The seemingly innocent sister may have another side that is unknown. The two sisters each have their own hidden agendas, test each other, and develop intricate emotional entanglements.
In the process, police officer Lu Zhu discovered the secrets about the two people’s life experiences and the conspiracy behind them, and the truth gradually emerged.
It can be seen from the story setting and trailer that the purpose of this suspense drama is not to shock the audience by the scale, but to explore the multi-dimensional work of human nature, family affection and love through a pair of twin sisters.
Two, Zhou Dongyu plays two roles, Peng Guanying challenges the criminal police character
Compared with the plot, what attracts me more is the casting of this drama.
ranked first, Zhou Dongyu.
One person plays two roles. It may be difficult for other young actresses to present it, but for Zhou Dongyu, the Golden Horse Award-winning actress, she is completely in her dominance zone.
In the trailer, Zhou Dongyu plays a calm and rational female forensic doctor, and her eyes look very pure.
depicts the sister who came back after 24 years. Her eyes and state are completely different. She has a tormenting, perverted and ferocious smile that makes people feel chilled down the back.
As long as he does not act in costume dramas, Zhou Dongyu can be targeted in modern dramas no matter what type they are.
Presumably this drama will allow Zhou Dongyu, who came to earth to act in TV series, to land steadily and open up a new track, instead of landing face first like " Qiangu Juechen ".
second place, Peng Guanying.
Although " The Story of Rose " has ended, the drama has such great stamina that when I saw Peng Guanying, I immediately thought of Zhuang Guodong.
Peng Guanying's appearance and temperament are indeed very suitable for portraying the role of an elite male domination, including the role of a gentle scum without any sense of violation.
But in this drama, Peng Guanying challenges the image of a criminal policeman. He has lost his sense of sophistication, and his clothes are quite down-to-earth. Through the screen, you can already feel the wisdom and delicacy of the character.
ranked third, Liang Jing.
Liang Jing, who had been working behind the scenes before, has also moved to the screen in recent years.
Liang Jing is a former actress, and she is completely capable. In this drama, the character she plays also has a sense of madness. This scene shows the character's collapse, and the murderous look in her eyes. It's very scary.
ranked fourth, Zhang Guangbei .
Chu Yunfei, our old acquaintance, is also in this drama.
Zhang Guangbei is so recognizable that even though there is only one shot in the trailer, the audience can recognize it at a glance.
But with his ferocious look and anxious expression, he is not a calm person like Chu Yunfei. It is still very exciting to see what kind of role the veteran actor Zhang Guangbei will play.
The fifth place is Ning Wentong.
Speaking of Ning Wentong’s name, perhaps everyone is unfamiliar with it.
But when it comes to King Ji in "Nirvana in Fire", King Yong in "Know or Not", and Li Laiyou in "County Party Committee Courtyard", do you have such a picture in your mind instantly? Face.
Yes, Ning Wentong is the kind of actor who makes the audience unable to name him, but every role he plays is a classic actor. This time he is also here to add icing on the cake for "Secret of the Sea".
Whether they are young actors or middle-aged actors, they are all recognized as capable actors. "Secret of the Sea" seems to be a high-quality suspense drama.
Conclusion
I have to say that putting Zhou Dongyu and Peng Guanying together, even thinking about it, they don’t match each other.
The petite Zhou Dongyu matches the tall Peng Guanying. The contrast in the body is too strong, it is difficult for people to feel CP, and it will only look a bit strange.
But in a work that focuses on suspense and the emotional drama between the male and female protagonists is only an auxiliary work, it does not have much impact.
From an acting point of view, the two actors are a powerful combination, and their acting skills are destined to be sparkling and exciting.
Are you looking forward to the combination of Zhou Dongyu and Peng Guanying?
