In the Chinese drama market, what is the most popular TV drama theme in recent years?
I think it is a suspenseful crime drama.
From "White Night" and "The Silent Truth" to "" and "", the suspenseful crime dramas in recent years are really more ruthless than the last.
However, this year’s suspense dramas are barely interesting.
Whether it is " Gloomy Fire " launched by CCTV, or "The Boy Who Can't See a Shadow" and "Her and Her Them" brought by Mist Theater, they cannot meet the requirements of a hit, and even the popularity and reputation are low. Somewhat unsatisfactory.
Among the upcoming films, "Above Dark Clouds" starring Sun Li , "Twenty One Days" directed by Wang Zhiwen, and "Snow Maze" produced by Zhang Yimou are still trying to convince the audience.
Is it possible that the current summer season will leave suspense drama fans feeling empty?
Don’t worry, a ruthless drama is coming to save the audience from drama shortage!
" Bianshui Past Events " produced by Cao Baoping airborne on Youku, and the first 4 episodes were well-received.
"Wall Crack Recommendation", "Perfect", "Come and See" and other eager Amway can't help but make me excited. After watching 4 episodes in a row, I want to say: This is how suspenseful crime dramas should be made!
hardcore plot, so right!
"Once Upon a Time in Bianshui" tells the story of Shen Xing ( Guo Qilin ) who wants to reunite with his uncle Shen Jiandong (played by You Yongzhi) and comes to Sanbiangpo to work.
Just when he thought his family could finally be reunited, the disappearance of his uncle and various murders caused Shen Xing to "fall into the quagmire", constantly swinging between crime and escape.
A typical suspenseful crime drama usually starts with a showdown between good and evil, an ultimate chase between the police and criminals, or an intellectual confrontation, but the new drama has put a new spin on this theme, with two major highlights that make people indulge in it.
First, new characters.
Compared with the police or high-level protagonists of ordinary suspense dramas, the male protagonist of the new drama is just a poor and stupid boy. He has no golden fingers and is not a so-called police undercover. He just wants to work in Sanbipo to make money.
As for the other male villain, Uncle Guai (Wu Zhenyu), he is not a dangerous person who commits crimes for the sake of doing evil. Even though he is engaged in a gray industry, he still has a decent face and makes money just to support himself. Stockade.
It can be said that there is nothing about the police in the new drama. It is completely a story of "ordinary people" about small people who endure hardships under the hands of big people, want to seize a glimmer of life, and oscillate between going to the dark side or keeping their hands clean and looking for opportunities to escape.
Such a plot, don't tell me, it's really unique.
Second, the scale is large.
The large scale of the suspenseful crime drama is not really a highlight worth showing off, but the new drama is so different. The story takes place on the exotic three-side slope, a tropical exotic land where fish and dragons are mixed.
Here, selling counterfeit wine, gold mining, murder, and gunfights seem to be common and trivial matters. Human life is not worth mentioning in the eyes of some people.
For example, when Shen Xing met Uncle Cai for the first time, he was beaten up first. When he wanted to accuse the murderer of Uncle Cai's men, Uncle Cai didn't give him a chance, and stabbed him with a sharp knife, and then the whole dagger disappeared into his flesh.
To be honest, anyone who reads this paragraph will sigh that Shen Xing is so miserable.
In addition, there are many viewers watching the blood in the play, but in fact, the scale of violence that is common in that area is really quite large.
It can be said that the drama "Once Upon a Time on the Edge of Water" has a novel and unique plot, and the story content is extremely attractive. The pace is fast but not chaotic. Every life lawsuit comes very quickly, making people unprepared.
It is this kind of passionate content that makes people enjoy watching it.
The powerful acting is so exciting
The suspense drama has the best acting. In addition to the exciting plot of "Once Upon a Time on the Edge of Water", the actors' acting skills are even more surprising.
ranked first, Wu Zhenyu.
Uncle Guai, played by Wu Zhenyu in the play, is ruthless and humane. He is not like a villain, but more like an ancient mountain king who turned into a bandit in order to feed the village.
said that during the conversation with his younger brother, Uncle Guai did not have a superiority complex. Instead, he sounded sincere like a big brother, with an expression of guilt and helplessness. His whole person was relaxed and natural, and his acting skills were too delicate.
However, when getting along with Shen Xing, Uncle Guai changed his face again. His expression was sinister, his eyes were full of murderous intent, and his sinister expression made people feel cold. He obviously didn't mean to be cruel, but it just made people know that he was not cruel. Easy to mess with.
Wu Zhenyu’s acting skills are so wonderful.
is second, Wang Xun .
Wu Haishan, played by Wang Xun, is also eye-catching. When
appeared, Wu Haishan was in trouble. He looked calm and had no ability to fight back. He wore glasses and was polite. He looked like a amiable and wealthy businessman with an extraordinary temperament.
However, I think Wu Haishan is a truly ruthless person who shows no signs of shame. When he asked his subordinates to deal with a little boy, his expression was sinister, without any hesitation or compassion, and his cold appearance did not put human life at risk at all. In the eyes.
Wang Xun’s acting skills are absolutely outstanding.
The third place is You Yongzhi.
Shen Jiandong, played by veteran drama star You Yongzhi, was hurriedly offline after less than half an episode, but his acting skills are equally reassuring.
Facing his troubled nephew, Shen Jiandong pointed at his nose and yelled, which seemed quite harsh, but his tone was full of concern for Shen Xing's life safety.
You Yongzhi's performance is impeccable, but there are too few scenes and it's hard to get enough of it.
is fourth, Jiang Qiming .
Wang Anping, played by Jiang Qiming, is really bad.
deceived people into pawning a brand-name watch. His words were simple, his expression was smart and honest, and he looked like an honest person. But who would have thought that the money given by Wang Ping'an was counterfeit money?
When he saw that the unlucky guy who had been deceived bought a real "stone" with fake money, and was exposed by his boss as a fake money scam in public, Wang Ping'an immediately evacuated the crowd with a cold face, his eyes were indifferent, and he looked like it had nothing to do with him.
I have to say that each role played by Jiang Qiming has its own characteristics, without any trace of performance, and is too powerful.
is fifth, Guo Qilin.
Guo Qilin has given remarkable performances in dramas such as "Celebrating More Than Years" and "The Son-in-Law". He is good at shaping small characters, has excellent tongue-in-cheek, and each character has its own happy atmosphere.
Originally I was thinking, would it be possible for such a comedian to act in a suspense drama?
didn’t expect it to be really impressive.
In the play, Guo Qilin played Shen Xing, who was miserable. He was beaten, stabbed, and heavily in debt. Guo Qilin captured the low-level struggle of the little character just right, and his acting skills are remarkable.
In addition, Zhao Runnan, Jiang Qilin, Wang Xiaomu and other actors have given wonderful performances in the drama. In the future, Qi Xi, Zhao Jun, Yin Ziwei and many other powerful actors will join the cast. This new drama, It’s quite interesting!
Conclusion
"Once Upon a Time by the Edge of Water" is a suspense work full of tropical style. It not only brings a different visual experience to the audience, but also brings different thoughts and inspirations to everyone mentally.
Moreover, the setting of the new drama is quite novel among domestic dramas. In this drama, the male protagonist does not have a halo, and the villain is not an absolute villain. He has empathy, but is equally ruthless when his interests are touched. The content of
is unique and in-depth, and the picture scale is unimaginably large.
It can be said that "Once Upon a Time on the Edge of Water" is a suspenseful crime drama worth watching, with its ingenious design of superimposing suspense and humanity. It is full of highlights.
So, do you think this drama suits your taste?
