In 2013, an entrepreneurial-themed movie "China Partners" was born that was a box office hit.
The film is directed by director Chen Kexin, starring Huang Xiaoming, Deng Chao, Tong Dawei.
tells the story of three good friends, Cheng Dongqing, Wang Yang and Meng Xiaojun, who went through hardships and jointly founded a new dream training institution.
was not only a hit at the box office, but the creators of the film also gained a lot from the film.
In particular, Huang Xiaoming, one of the male protagonists, was recognized by the audience for his acting skills as Cheng Dongqing.
In the film, Huang Xiaoming put aside his "evil smile" domineering CEO style and brilliantly interpreted the role with a restrained and natural performance.
Huang Xiaoming also relied on this role to win three Best Actors in one fell swoop: Golden Rooster, Baihua, and Huabiao, and he became famous.
After 11 years, Huang Xiaoming brought another drama version of "Chinese Partner" - " Red Hot ".
The drama recently landed in the prime time slot of CCTV 8 and ranked first in ratings for 2 consecutive days after its launch.
After finishing the 6 episodes in one go, Qingshi will take everyone into this drama to find out.
, ideas are plagiarized, project financing is difficult, and employees are poached. This drama reveals the many difficulties on the road to starting a business.
is also an entrepreneur. The protagonist in the movie "Chinese Partners" founded an education and training institution.
"Red Heat" focuses on a more advanced industry, the high-tech chip industry.
Although the entrepreneurial directions are different, the protagonists in "China Partners" also face many problems on the way to starting a business.
The first one: the idea was plagiarized.
The story of "Red Heat" takes place in 1997. The male advocate Haichao (played by Huang Xiaoming) is a top student at Tsinghua University.
He and his classmate Li Dongsheng ( Zhang Chao decorated ) studied and researched the chip of the navigation and positioning system together, and achieved good results.
In order to improve the ability to develop chips, the male protagonist and his classmates applied to American universities after graduating from college.
When studying abroad, the male protagonist accurately captured the development trend of the chip industry and decided to start a business with Li Dongsheng.
Unexpectedly, his entrepreneurial idea was stolen by others, and the other party used their creativity to directly obtain millions of dollars in financing.
The person who plagiarized their ideas was Huang Zhongkai ( played by Li Zhiting) who came to China to compete with them before.
So the male protagonist went to consult a lawyer to see if he could take the other party to court, but the answer he got was that the chance of winning was very low.
The reason is very simple. An idea is an idea and has not been registered as a patent, so plagiarism cannot be proven.
And the lawyer said it bluntly in front of them, I’m afraid you can’t even afford the legal fees!
Although the lawsuit was not settled and the creativity was not recovered, this incident taught the male protagonist the first lesson on his entrepreneurial journey.
That’s how valuable unique ideas are and how important it is to apply for patents in this technological era.
The second one: project financing is difficult.
The male protagonist and his party want to start a business, but technology alone is not enough. Someone must invest.
So the male protagonist and his classmates went to solicit investment, but the investors told them that the male protagonist’s current technology was not enough to convince him.
But in order to prove the technology, the male protagonist must go through design, tape-out, verification and then testing, which will cost millions in one round.
But the problem now is that the male protagonist and his party have no money. In order to solve the problem, the male protagonist thought of a way.
rewrites the algorithm for the chip in the Berkeley Lab navigation robot, and then improves the speed and sensitivity of the navigator.
Just rewriting the algorithm can improve the performance of the chip. If the hero gets financing to redesign the chip, the performance will be even better.
As a result, such changes still failed to convince investors.
In the end, the male protagonist competed with the navigation robots on the market with his own navigation robot that rewrote the algorithm.
Through intuitive comparison, investors recognized the hero’s technology, and the project financing problem was temporarily solved.
The third one: employees were poached.
The technology is available and the funds are in place, but when the male protagonist and his team start a company, they are faced with the problem of employees being poached.
The first person to be poached was the male protagonist’s senior.
When the male protagonist and his team got project financing and went to find their senior, they were told to quit other companies because the salary offered by the other company was three times the current salary.
The second one is the male protagonist’s good friend.
After the student was poached, the male protagonist once asked his friend if he would also leave, and his friend definitely said that he would definitely not.
As a result, my friend was eventually poached because his father had kidney cancer, and the other company directly found a good doctor for his father's treatment.
Two of the four people who started a business together were poached. The entrepreneurial journey of the male protagonist and his party is in jeopardy.
According to the trailer, the male protagonist will also encounter plots such as business rivals and brother betrayal on the way to starting a business.
How to resolve these problems, we are just waiting for the male protagonist to take action.
. The director picked the right actors and all the members performed online. Huang Xiaoming made people dream of becoming Dongqing.
For an entrepreneurial drama, in addition to the exciting plot, the actors' performances are also a highlight.
"Red Heat" has gathered a lot of talented actors. Judging from the plot currently aired, there are already 4 actors who have shown good acting skills.
No. 1: Huang Xiaoming
Zhang Haichao, played by Huang Xiaoming in the play, wears a plaid shirt and black-rimmed glasses. As soon as he appears, he will make people dream of becoming Dongqing.
It’s just that compared to the stupid Cheng Dongqing, Zhang Haichao’s character has more idealism.
And compared to 11 years ago, Huang Xiaoming’s acting skills are now more delicate and exquisite.
When he was raising funds when he was a student, his expression was sincere and his tone was sincere.
lowered his attitude and spoke sincerely in every word, vividly displaying the image of a first-generation entrepreneur who started from scratch.
After a successful career, Zhang Haichao has a steady temperament and full of elite taste. At first glance, he is the backbone of the company.
When something happened to his wife, through Huang Xiaoming's eyes, the audience could see Zhang Haichao's maturity in being nervous but still remaining calm and looking for a solution.
Not only is his acting not greasy, Huang Xiaoming’s status in the play is also online. We look forward to Xiaoming’s more exciting performances in the future.
Second place: Zhang Chao
As a powerful Mesozoic, Zhang Chao has had wonderful performances in works such as "Soul of Chess" and " is not a problem ".
This time he plays Li Dongsheng, the male protagonist’s brother and rival.
Li Dongsheng is a passionate and passionate character. He encourages the male protagonist to start a business with him and is not discouraged when facing difficulties in starting a business.
But this character also has a sharp edge of paranoia. His free and uninhibited hairstyle and the appearance of leading a group of people shouting "money, money, money" are really crazy.
Judging from the trailer, Li Dongsheng also turned against the male protagonist and even went to jail.
And Zhang Chao’s performance is also remarkable, with brotherhood, confidence, ambition and enthusiasm.
Third place: Wang Ou
From "Mature Years" to "Xiaoman Life", Wang Ou has been a regular guest on CCTV, so there is no need to worry about his acting skills.
In this new drama, Wang Ou plays the heroine Huang Linxi in two states.
When he was in college, Wang Ou appeared with an "Afro", painted on colorful eye shadow, and energetically promoted the contact lenses in his hands.
’s exaggerated expressions and movements make the character’s carefree image stand upright.
is also a direct exporter of feelings. He boldly pursues Zhang Haichao and has a cool attitude of not caring about it.
After starting a business with the male protagonist, Huang Linxi changed from an afro to a long, straight black hair, and his temperament became calmer and wiser.
Even when she faced the dilemma of being arrested, she had a resolute face and firm eyes, maintaining a calm and unhurried feeling.
Fourth place: Li Zhiting.
Huang Zhongkai, played by Li Zhiting, is also eye-catching.
Huang Zhongkai is a villain in the play. He always confronts Zhang Haichao and constantly causes trouble for his startup company.
As a villain, he has brains and means.
came to China to participate in a competition during college. Faced with the temptation of "undercover" Huang Linxi, he used every trick and successfully deceived the other party.
After meeting Zhang Haichao and Li Dongsheng again, Huang Zhongkai was not ashamed of "stealing" Zhang Haichao's creativity.
When the male protagonist started his business, he set up various obstacles, especially when convincing the male protagonist and his classmates to join his company, he fully demonstrated the ability of a company CEO.
In addition, powerful actors such as Shi Shi, Li Chuanying, Ling Zhuo, Zeng Meihuizi also contributed outstanding performances in the drama, adding a lot of color to the drama.
. When talking about entrepreneurship, put "Chinese Partners" and "Red Heat" together, and the difference will come out. Although
are all about entrepreneurship, they also star Huang Xiaoming.
But compared with "Chinese Partner", this "Red Heat" has many bright spots.
The first is the more relaxed atmosphere.
The main line of entrepreneurial themes is that the protagonist counterattacks from a small person to a big shot, and in this process he will face many difficulties.
Therefore, the tone of most entrepreneurial dramas is serious and passionate, but "Red Heat" has an extra dose of comedy.
For example, at the beginning of the series, the female protagonist was arrested on suspicion of smuggling in the United States, and the male protagonist had no choice but to raise money in order to bail her out.
He first found his friend Xue Atu, who turned out to be meeting his in-laws in the bathhouse. He also bluntly said what's wrong with meeting each other sincerely?
After that, the male protagonist went to find Li Dongsheng again. The two who were once partners have already broken up.
When he heard Li Dongsheng come to borrow money for him, his first sentence was, are you crazy?
Zhang Haichao, who was forced to panic, directly started to pick off the car window, and as a result, the two grown men struggled with each other.
I have to say that this scene where Zhang Haichao stopped a car and asked Li Dongsheng to borrow money was really funny and weird, just like two elementary school students fighting.
The female protagonist first met the male protagonist selling contact lenses to him, but the male protagonist asked him whether his things have a license.
couldn’t see the male protagonist after she fell in love with him. She asked Li Dongsheng for help, and he asked her what her specialties were.
As a result, the heroine said, I have very long legs.
Later, the heroine applied for a tutoring class in order to go abroad. The heroine’s grades were so poor that the boss wanted to persuade her to quit, but she unexpectedly turned against the boss.
The interaction between the two is very funny, focusing on the absurdity of making the impossible possible.
The second is a more grand pattern.
is also about entrepreneurship. "China Partner" focuses on individuals and shows the process from ordinary people to successful people.
And the pattern of this "Red Heat" is even grander.
In the play, there are not only the hard work of entrepreneurs represented by the male protagonist, but also the intrigues between enterprises.
The most commendable thing is that it triggers the deep Chinese feelings in the audience.
The background of the play is the 1990s. At that time, China's chip industry had just started, and there was a big gap between it and Europe and the United States.
Faced with such a situation, the researchers represented by the male protagonist are not discouraged.
When competing in a GPS navigation competition with foreign players, he tried his best to challenge and made a declaration to the world:
Courage is not about having a gun in your hand, but that you still do it even though you know you will lose.
In order to learn more advanced chip technology, the male protagonist and his classmates came to the other side of the ocean. After learning the technology, they responded to national policies and returned to the country to contribute their own strength.
So "Red Heat" is not only an entrepreneurial drama, but also an inspirational drama full of feelings about family and country.
From Zhang Haichao’s perspective, it shows us the arduous journey of Chinese science and technology entrepreneurs to start their own businesses, as well as their family and country feelings as they strive for the dream of becoming a technologically powerful country.
Such works and the spirit of these patriotic scientific and technological innovation people are worth watching and carrying forward.
