When idol dramas are packaged in batches to meet entertainment needs in streamlined commercial packaging, most mainstream dramas, with More sophisticated production and a better cast support the quality of domestic dramas.

However, this summer season, there are so many so-called "potential dark horses" online, but except for " Bianshui Past Events " starring Guo Qilin , which is eye-catching in terms of plot content and theme style, other The drama was aired without any splash.

Under this situation, only CCTV dramas can change the sluggish TV drama market. This latest good drama "Going to the Southwest" has a ratings of 1.3 in just two episodes. The easily winning ratings are enough to show the dark horse potential of this drama.

Revolutionary themes, excellent texture, highlighting the quality of key dramas

The TV series "Going to the Southwest" is a key drama created to celebrate the 75th anniversary of China. The TV series tells the story of the Southwest Bureau of the CPC Central Committee led by Deng Xiaoping and Liu Bocheng, who united the masses and commanders to overcome numerous difficulties and made great achievements in building the Southwest.

As a revolutionary drama based on real history, "Going to the Southwest" does not involve joking about history, but only solid script creation and plot connections that respect facts.

It is reported that in order to create a sense of immersion in the era, the drama team read through tens of millions of words of historical materials and organized exchanges with authoritative cultural and historical experts. There are about 200 named characters in the drama, more than 80 of whom are Characters with real prototypes.

It can be seen from the theme configuration of the TV series itself that this drama will be a key project broadcast by the main station. The launch of the TV series is even more impressive, and even "Xinwen Lianbo" has promoted the TV series.

After watching the feature film, you will find that this drama is definitely worth it. The

TV series is placed in a complex historical background, but the story line is very clear. The main line of the plot is actually the process of Southwest China moving from a state of war to an economic state. Looking back now, the path we chose is extremely correct and firm, but this process is also tortuous and difficult.

The first episode of "Going to the Southwest" put the audience's contradictions on the table. In order to break Chiang Kai-shek's dominance in Chongqing, Comrade Deng Xiaoping was arranged by Chairman Mao to enter Sichuan and liberate the southwest.

The first dilemma before us is the difficult geographical environment. The terrain in the southwest is complex, making it difficult for large troops to enter Sichuan. At the same time, reserve supplies are also affected. However, our People's Liberation Army has emerged from tough battles and is able to Look at problems and situations rationally and have confidence to win the Southwest.

Objective problem solving, the second dilemma is the actions of Chiang Kai-shek's reactionaries. They regard the southwest as the last line of defense, and they attach great importance to it. The enemy is in the dark, and we are in the light. Through the tension of the plot, "Going to the Southwest" premiered at once The two episodes eliminate the sense of immersion that sticks to the rhythm.

Although the current plot is still being laid out, it is certain that "Going to the Southwest" has demonstrated the quality of a major drama.

The cast is well-equipped, and the powerful actors' acting skills are soul-stirring

The great comrades appearing in this drama are actually very mature characters in mainstream film and television dramas. Like Chairman Mao and Deng Xiaoping, there are many special actors. Their performances require almost no thought and polish, and they have the ability to convince the audience as soon as they appear.

But "Going to the Southwest" still made some articles about the lineup.

Actor An Rongsheng, who plays Comrade Deng Xiaoping, has always been a typical actor of young Deng Xiaoping. He has portrayed Comrade Deng Xiaoping in many film and television dramas. The most memorable works of the audience, "Red Bank" and " Long March " have laid the foundation for His recognition as a special actor.

Because An Rongsheng is so familiar with this role, he already has a very clear understanding of Deng Xiaoping's life. In addition to having an appearance close to that of a leader, he also successfully performed the spirit of a leader.

In the work "Towards the Southwest", we can also feel the knowledge and thoughts of the characters. For example, when he accepted the organizational arrangements and led the large forces to liberate the Southwest, An Rongsheng's eyes were shining. This kind of devotion to the revolutionary cause The longing for motivation further demonstrates the character's firm and decisive core of faith.

In addition to An Rongsheng, there are many familiar faces in "Going to the Southwest".

Actor Liu Zhibing is not a special actor. Liu Zhibing has also been active in various hit dramas in recent years. With his mature and steady image, he has created many golden supporting roles.

In the drama "Going to the Southwest", Liu Zhibing also played the role of Liu Bocheng as a calm and restrained leader. Wearing a pair of black-framed glasses, he has a calm and wise image. When analyzing the situation, he is unsmiling and his tone is calm but full of convincing reliability.

It should be said that in the scenes opposite these powerful actors, from their images to their voices, from their emotions to their bodies, they all give people a fully immersive experience with a sense of integration.

Especially Liu Zhibing’s original lines are clear and personal. Even his accent seems relaxed and natural, as if he is the character himself.

Strong actors support the attraction, and young actors are also very important.

Niu Junfeng, who plays Comrade Wang Buxian in "Going to the Southwest", is actually not a front-line actor in the entertainment industry. He has a simple image. In his early years, he was even a supporting role in idol dramas, but it is precisely Niu Junfeng's relatively low-key appearance. , when he appeared in mainstream dramas wearing uniforms, he had a simple earthy look.

At the same time, Niu Junfeng also performed the bravery and fearlessness of young people in the plot. He dared to prove the truth and himself in practice. In the face of the revolutionary cause, Niu Junfeng really demonstrated Comrade Wang Buxian's unwavering sense of belief.

In general, the drama "Going to the Southwest" brings together too many eye-catching talents. Just the cast configuration creates a scene where gods fight against counterfeiters. The combination of powerful and non-traffic-oriented young actors and the actor's performance comfort also make the plot better to watch.

Of course, mainstream dramas also have their own limitations. "Going to the Southwest" focuses on the revolutionary cause. If it wants to break through the circle and become popular, it must not only be shot with a sense of reality, but also must get rid of the stereotypes of mainstream dramas in the early years and show the drama of the plot and the contrasting charm of the characters.

At this point, many revolutionary themes have been overturned. As for whether "Going to the Southwest" can impress the audience, it depends on whether the screenwriters and actors can be more bold in their creation, show the characters' rigor in the revolutionary cause, and also show the characters' fireworks in their daily lives.
