CCTV has been very popular in the past six months, and has released many popular masterpieces.
At the beginning of the new year, " Blossoms ", with its exquisite pictures and wonderful story, became popular in the industry and was directly called an "orphan".
After that, whether it was the period drama "South and North", the spy drama "The Storm Chaser" or the military drama "海天eagle", all received good ratings.
The main station for watching dramas is indeed well-deserved.
Recently, CCTV took action again.
"Dream City" starring Yang Shuo Jiang Xin was launched on CCTV's prime time slot and ranked first in ratings for three consecutive days after its launch.
Central Television gave this drama a lot of credit. In addition to setting aside a prime time slot, even Xinwen Network gave it 20 seconds of publicity.
After finishing the 6 episodes in one go, Qingshi will take everyone into this drama to find out.
html Episode 21 and 4 threw out three major dramatic conflicts, which firmly caught the audience's attention as soon as it started broadcasting.
This drama is very special in terms of subject matter, focusing on the development of the digital economy.
tells the story of the new generation of entrepreneurs in the field of big data in China, represented by the male and female protagonists Luo Chengyu and Chu Ange, who shoulder the mission, participate in international competition, and go through ups and downs to realize their dreams.
But no matter what the subject matter is, good-looking for the audience is the first priority.
"Dream City" also adheres to the essence of grabbing the audience at the beginning. It is full of drama conflicts from the beginning, and throws out three major drama conflicts in 4 episodes.
First, how should a pregnant woman give birth in a traffic jam?
The story takes place in Jiangnan City.
The male protagonist Luo Chengyu (played by Yang Shuo), who works in a foreign-funded data company, and his girlfriend Jiang Yifei (played by Li Yixiao) drove to attend a new product launch conference.
As a result, due to traffic jams, the two of them could only ride bicycles to their destination.
On the way, the male protagonist not only met the mayor Qi Dongfang (played by Cheng Taishen) who was also blocked, but also met a pregnant woman who was about to give birth.
The mayor arranged for the traffic control department to coordinate a life channel, but the ambulance could not come in due to the road blockage, and the pregnant woman was in danger for a while.
Seeing this situation, the male protagonist made a prompt decision and used big data to direct traffic on the spot to carry out life rescue.
The press conference on the other side was also adjusted to directly broadcast the whole process of the male protagonist using the Yunlong system to save people.
The male protagonist quickly opened up a life path for pregnant women through big data mobilization, and a thrilling rescue was a complete success.
also gives everyone a preliminary understanding of the operability and practicality of the male protagonist's design and development system.
But just as everyone was cheering, the press conference screen was suddenly attacked by hackers. Although it was handled in a timely manner, the vulnerability of Yunlong system was still widely reported by the media.
So the male protagonist returned to the company and worked with his colleagues to scan and repair vulnerabilities in the system again to ensure the security of the system.
Second, how should the company respond to the parachute executives?
The accidental hacker invasion also triggered the second conflict in the play - the company parachuted executives.
Due to an accident at the press conference, in order to ensure the normal launch of the Yunlong system, the head office directly parachuted the heroine Chu Ange (played by Jiang Xin) as the male protagonist's boss.
Everyone thinks that the position of general manager of this company should be Ding Muyang (played by Sun Qiang), because it was him who led the company along the way to achieve its current achievements.
For such personnel arrangements, the male protagonist is very repelled and angry.
At the same time, the purpose of the heroine’s visit this time is to put the research and development project into production immediately and occupy a certain market to gain profits.
However, this goes against the original intention of the male protagonist. He believes that the safety of this project needs to be improved, and it cannot be put into the market for the time being.
One is from the perspective of the parent company and the other is from the perspective of the research and development project. Coupled with the matter of parachute leadership, the relationship between the two has become incompatible.
Third, a large number of employees were maliciously laid off, how to resolve it?
The reason why the HT Chinese company where the male protagonist works is full of talents and its employees are devoted to digital research and development is because of the company's commitment to "everyone holds shares".
But the heroine who came by air told the hero that this promise could not be realized at all.
Ding Muyang, who was apparently promoted to the headquarters, also saw clearly the face of the big boss, refused the promotion and submitted his resignation directly.
The boss who received the resignation did not care. He even directly issued an announcement in the company to indicate that Ding Muyang was fired from the company in order to scare the monkeys.
What makes the male protagonist even more angry is that the company was hacked again, and the other party announced the list of layoffs planned by the head office.
The news of the company’s layoffs can be described as a pebble causing thousands of waves. The issue of everyone holding shares has not been implemented, and the headquarters has launched another major layoff plan.
This is obviously "killing the donkey". In order to fight for the rights and interests of his subordinates, the male protagonist became the company's labor union and decided to negotiate with the company through legal means.
In the end, the negotiation failed and the male protagonist shut down the Yunlong system and led the team to resign collectively.
So a game struggle between Chinese code farmers and foreign capital officially kicked off.
According to the trailer, on the way to starting a business, the male protagonist will also encounter plots such as business rivals, brother betrayal, girlfriend separation, and falling in love with the female protagonist.
. Focusing on a technologically powerful country, "Dream City" triggers the Chinese feelings deep in the hearts of countless people.
Another commendable aspect of "Dream City" is that it triggers deep Chinese feelings in the audience.
is different from many shows that show workplace dilemmas and intrigues. The pattern of this drama is more grand.
The male protagonist who worked for a foreign-funded enterprise at the beginning of the series led the team to develop the Yunlong system, but the beneficiaries of the scientific research results were not the male protagonist and his team.
The head office first parachuted senior executives to take over the Chinese company, and a series of patent certifications were not carried out in China.
The leaders of Jiangnan City recognized the role of Yunlong system in urban management and wanted to carry out government procurement.
was told that they could not cooperate because the first users of the new system were for foreign customers.
From here we can see how terrible foreign technology monopoly on scientific and technological research and development results is.
The series also uses this background to launch a technological war between Chinese code farmers and foreign capital.
The drama is about young scientific and technological personnel represented by the male protagonist who break the foreign technological containment, serve the country with science and technology, and start a business to become stronger.
pursues, builds and realizes dreams in the fields of big data and artificial intelligence.
Reformers represented by Mayor Qi Dongfang have taken the vivid practice of innovative development in various fields such as promoting industrial transformation and development of digital economy, urban governance, and reform of people's livelihood as a sideline.
Then the main and secondary lines are intertwined, young people dream of a technologically powerful country, and city managers build nests for their dreams.
They work together to turn dreams into reality, and jointly interpret the resonance of personal destiny and national destiny, and the harmonious resonance of personal dreams and the Chinese dream.
So "Dream City" is not only a business war drama, but also an inspirational drama full of feelings about family and country. The fate of each character in the play is closely connected with the development of the country. The intersection of personal dreams and the Chinese dream forms a grand picture of the times.
Through these vivid stories, the audience can not only see the arduous journey of entrepreneurs, but also feel the fighting spirit of young people today in pursuing their personal dreams and the feelings of a strong country and my country.
. 3 regrets. Will there be improvement in the future?
In addition to the above highlights, the problems in this "Dream City" are also obvious.
The first is the actor’s acting skills.
The cast of the CCTV drama "Dream City" is very strong, and the performance of many actors is remarkable.
For example, the heroine Chu Ange, played by Jiang Xin, has short hair, is capable and sassy, and looks very elite in professional attire.
Cheng Taishen, who played the ruthless villain in "The Boy Who Stole Shadows", this time transformed into a mayor who is dedicated to the people, and his performance showed no sense of disobedience.
Veteran drama star Cheng Yu has a sense of majesty and a calm demeanor, and he portrays the character perfectly as soon as he appears.
Compared with these actors, Yang Shuo’s performance as the male protagonist is hard to describe.
Luo Chengyu, played by Yang Shuo in the drama, is an IT talent, but his appearance and status do not look like a technical talent at all.
’s performance is also very exaggerated. No matter what the occasion, he shrinks his neck and frowns, and keeps gesticulating with his hands, which feels very greasy.
’s original lines were not very good either. Many netizens complained that his voice was too hoarse and could not be understood without subtitles.
The second is that the professional presentation is too perfunctory.
"Dream City" focuses on the high-tech industry, so there will be certain related professional plot displays.
The plot of rescuing pregnant women through big data is very good, and it intuitively shows the role of big data.
But in the subsequent plots, the professional plots involved were not satisfactory.
For example, after the male protagonist’s system was attacked, the department worked overtime to conduct system self-examination and vulnerability repair.
There is no visual display of this part of the plot in the play, allowing the audience to see how programmers deal with the problem.
just shows a few programmers typing on the keyboard and looking at computer programs.
And whether it is the male protagonist or his subordinates, the discussion of the system is not professional enough, and they just stay on the text rather than the code.
The third is that the plot logic is not rigorous enough.
For a good work, the logic of the plot must be rigorous enough.
But "Dream City", like the Yunlong system in other dramas, has many loopholes, and many plots are outrageous.
For example, the male protagonist went to his teacher’s house for dinner, but as soon as he went there, he was punished for the press conference.
To be honest, Qingshi didn’t know that they were a teacher-student relationship at first, and thought it was a father-son relationship. After all, such reprimands could only be given by a father to his son.
turned out to be a big departure. It is a teacher-student relationship. It can only be said that this relationship is not an ordinary close relationship.
And according to such a close relationship, the male protagonist should be very familiar with the teacher, but he didn’t know that the female protagonist was the teacher’s daughter.
For example, if the female protagonist is parachuted in to be the leader, the male protagonist, as a subordinate, should not start arguing with the female protagonist even if he has emotions.
As the main developer of the entire project, the decision to conduct security testing before going online is a developer's serious and responsible attitude towards the research and development project.
But even so, the leader cannot be given any face or face, as if he is the real leader, rude and irritable.
The male protagonist works in a high-tech company, but he is hacked again and again, and even the hackers obtain the confidential layoff list.
For a security system that can be easily hacked, other companies should not dare to purchase corresponding products.
The most important thing is that the company's new system is about to be launched, and the head office will lay off all R&D personnel? After the
system is launched, it may encounter many bugs and system crashes, which require continuous maintenance, overhaul and updates by R&D personnel.
When laying off employees at this critical time, does the head office think that the branches are not dying fast enough?
With a plot like this, it’s no wonder that netizens called it fake and cliché, and the screenwriter really has no experience at work!
Generally speaking, this drama has its advantages and disadvantages. I hope that the plot and performances can be improved in the future and it will become the new king of CCTV dramas.
