In the current domestic drama market, which subject matter fascinates audiences?
I guess it’s an urban drama.
There are many types of urban themes, including urban + female ones, such as " Ode to Joy " and " Only Thirty ", which allow the audience to feel the power of women through the lens.
There are also urban + workplace titles, such as " Settling Down " and " Going to the Wind ", which show the hard work of ordinary people in the workplace through small and large things, which will give a full sense of substitution.
In addition, urban + emotional, urban + family and other genres have special appeal to audiences.
However, this year’s urban dramas are a bit less interesting.
Whether it is "City in the City" and " You are more beautiful than the stars " in the city + workplace, or " Little Days " and " Old Guy " in the city + family, they all make the audience feel bored. How does
break the situation?
Hunan Satellite TV takes action!
's urban emotional drama "Secret Romance" made its grand debut. It only aired 2 episodes and ranked first in satellite TV ratings. Its strength cannot be underestimated.
I watched 3 episodes in a row. I want to say: I finally stayed up late to binge-watch an urban drama!
Healing love, the rhythm is tight and too tense
"Private Romance" tells the story of 27-year-old Tu Xiaoning ( Zhang Jianing ) and her flash marriage partner Ji Yuheng ( Wei Zheming ) who suddenly became superiors and subordinates. In order not to be complained about by colleagues, " "Relationship household", the two decided to have an underground romance in the office.
The stories of urban emotional dramas are similar, and the audience has watched too much and even felt a little tired. Therefore, if the show wants to be successful, it must come up with some unique highlights.
"Private Romance" is full of sincerity and has two advantages that make it interesting.
First, the emotional line is so delicious.
In the past, the audience watched urban emotional dramas in which the male and female protagonists either did not know each other or were childhood sweethearts. The new drama has a new twist. The encounter between the male and female protagonists was planned by the male protagonist Ji Yuheng for a long time.
7-year-old Tu Xiaoning has two major goals in life, one is to get a regular job, and the other is to get married. So as soon as she debuted, she began to wander around the blind date market, going on blind dates from morning to night.The male protagonist Ji Yuheng is a hunter who has been preparing for a long time and waiting for the rabbit.
When Tu Xiaoning kept failing on blind dates, Ji Yuheng came belatedly, took the blind date bear that Tu Xiaoning had left behind, went to the service desk to exchange for the successfully matched bear, and walked directly in front of the other party.
This encounter alone makes people’s mouths curl up, and the subsequent development of the story makes people feel like eating honey, so sweet that it hurts their teeth.
A high school classmate reunites after a long absence, secretly creating various opportunities to win the favor of a beautiful woman, watching the heroine's sudden heartbeat and the hero constantly trying to get closer. To be honest, this kind of direct love is too exciting. !
Second, the plot is fast-paced and not sloppy.
In the first episode, the male and female protagonists meet. At the pre-wedding party of an old classmate, the male protagonist comes to the rescue of the female protagonist. In the second episode of
, the male protagonist proposed to the female protagonist. After opening their hearts, the two decided to get married. The third episode of
is even more incredible, the male and female protagonists live together directly!
What’s even more surprising is that in this urban emotional drama, there is no feudal patriarch or evil mother-in-law. The parents of both the male and female protagonists are gentle and open-minded parents.
Although I don’t understand the two people’s quick marriage, the heroine’s parents gave each other sufficient respect. This kind of urban emotional drama without family obstacles is really a long time coming.
In just 3 episodes, the new drama has brought countless surprises to the audience, including enlightened parents, a crush on the male protagonist, a transparent female protagonist, and a rapidly developing emotional line.
It can be said that the first three episodes of "Secret Romance" gave the whole drama a good start.
Whether it is from the perspective of idol love, narrative techniques, or picture quality, the new dramas all meet the audience's demands for urban themes.
The follow-up love process of the male and female protagonists in the office is also a highlight of this drama, and I am looking forward to it.
Zhang Jianing, Wei Zheming's CP sense is online, and the supporting cast is strong
The key to urban emotional dramas lies in casting, and "Secret Romance" guarantees both appearance and acting skills.
ranked first, Zhang Jianing.
As a talented little girl, Zhang Jianing's acting skills have been recognized by the audience as early as in "Do you know whether you should be green, fat, red and thin".
In the new drama, Zhang Jianing transforms into the cute little Tu Xiaoning.
When she was "robbed" of her regular job by a related employer in the workplace, Tu Xiaoning, who was sitting in the dressing room while stroking her work badge and crying silently, was really heart-wrenching.
Even without lines, I can feel the great sadness in the character's heart.
When Tu Xiaoning decided to marry Ji Yuheng, the depression in Tu Xiaoning's heart was gone. Her smile was bright and bright, like a little sun that constantly radiates warmth. Who wouldn't like such a shining character?
Zhang Jianing's acting skills are natural and delicate, the character is entrusted to her, and the director is so discerning.
ranked second, Wei Zheming.
Originally, I was worried that Wei Zheming, who has no famous masterpiece, would be troubled by his performance in the new drama, but when his character Ji Yuheng appeared on the stage, I was relieved. When
came to Tu Xiaoning's rescue, Ji Yuheng had a face as beautiful as a crown jewel and was handsome in a suit. When he handed a rose to Tu Xiaoning, his eyes were full of love. The ambiguous elements in the air were constantly surging. It was so sweet.
However, even though he was deeply in love with Tu Xiaoning, Ji Yuheng was full of energy and merciless at work. When asking Tu Xiaoning about the details of the loan process, his expression was serious and his eyes were sharp. He was really a cold-faced judge.
Whether it is his acting skills or his relationship with Zhang Jianing, Wei Zheming has brought me too many surprises, and I can't help but wonder how the subsequent emotional line will develop.
is third, Liu Jun .
The drama star Liu Jun is an old acquaintance of the audience. In previous works, his role in the drama was the image of a "scumbag father", but in the new drama, Liu Jun "becomes better".
When his daughter came home, Tu’s father, who wanted to chat with his child, opened the door with a happy face, but when he saw his daughter with a serious face, he secretly screamed, and quickly changed his face and closed the door, which was ridiculous.
When Tu’s father heard his daughter asking him to introduce some boyfriends, Tu’s father directly said, “You’re going to take my life away from me.” This set off the cheerful and natural family atmosphere.
has a sad and sad face, portraying a plump and three-dimensional image of a helpless old father who is forced by his daughter to "reverse blind date".
With Liu Jun here, the atmosphere of this new drama is so relaxing.
ranked fourth, Hu Ke.
Hu Ke is also a well-known and capable actress. She plays a couple with Liu Jun in the drama, which is a lot of fun.
Faced with her daughter's reverse blind date, after Tu's mother recommended a person to her, she looked at her daughter with a flattering smile on her face, with deep helplessness hidden in her eyes, and her expression was so vivid.
After hearing Ji Yuheng's confession about Tu Xiaoning, Tu's mother looked at him seriously, with concern for Ji Yuheng and distress for her daughter in her eyes.
Although Hu Ke didn't have many scenes in the first three episodes, her appearance made the new drama full of excitement.
ranked fifth, Wang Zhener.
Rao Jing, played by Wang Zhener in the drama, is so aura. She is dressed in professional attire, speaks and acts resolutely, and her serious attitude at work made me sit upright outside the screen.
I guess this role will be Tu Xiaoning’s Bole, and I look forward to Wang Zhener’s more exciting performance in the follow-up plot.
In addition, Zhou Chengao, Dai Yunfan, Ke Ying and other powerful actors all gave wonderful performances in the play. It would be a pity not to watch all the acting talents performing on the same stage.
Conclusion
How long has it been since I saw a wonderful urban emotional drama?
I have watched so many bad dramas that I almost forgot that urban emotional dramas can also progress quickly, be sweet but not greasy, and be both real and beautiful.
The title of "Private Romance" is quite idol-like, and the main film is full of romantic atmosphere. The settings of marriage first, love later and office romance make the content more full and interesting.
Not only does the character's career line continue to grow, but also the emotional line that gradually blends into a loving couple. This new drama is really addictive to watch.
The show has just been updated now. I believe that as long as the level of the plot is maintained, it will definitely not be a problem to become a hit.
So, do you like this show?
