If you want to ask what the "hot-selling regulars" are in Chinese dramas, I think it must be criminal investigation dramas.

From "White Nights" to "The Silent Truth" to last year's "Hurry Up" and " The Long Season ", criminal investigation dramas have emerged in large numbers, pushing the ceiling higher and higher.

Because of this, the audience's requirements for criminal investigation dramas have become more stringent.

Therefore, dramas such as "黑土无语", "The Unspeakable" and " Dislocation " that were aired this year were all hampered by the quality of the scripts and failed to achieve great success.

However, there are still many ruthless dramas in the upcoming drama list that are worth looking forward to.

For example, Sun Li and Luo Jin starred in "Above Dark Clouds".

After a corpse dismemberment case, the police officers disappeared mysteriously, and more and more people were killed. The large-scale scenes in the trailer were so mind-numbing that the main film must be even more exciting.

However, there is no news about the scheduled release of this drama. Another drama came first -

"Twenty One Days" is planned to be released in Peach Factory in September. After reading the trailer and cast, I dare to say that this drama is The quality is definitely not inferior to "Above the Clouds".

Next, let’s talk about this drama in detail.

The subject matter is novel, and the three highlights are eye-catching

Most criminal investigation dramas usually focus on the case, using a shocking murder case to unfold the entire story. When the real murderer surfaced, the story also came to an end.

But "Twenty One Days" breaks this routine. Combining the trailer and plot summary, the drama has at least three innovative points.

One, disaster theme.

What attracts me most about the drama is its subject matter - a rare disaster criminal investigation drama in China.

A department store building suddenly collapsed and settled, and thirteen people were trapped under the rubble.

Perhaps the joys and sorrows of human beings are not the same, but when disaster strikes, vulnerability and the desire to survive are the same.

compete for limited survival resources in a limited time. Everyone works on their own, and disputes continue. The various forms of sentient beings under a disaster are slowly unveiled.

Under the ruins, it has become the best crime scene in the world.

The second one is the setting of all villains.

People expect a miracle to come. If there is no miracle, then just protect yourself.

One of the trapped persons, He Xiaoguang ( Ouhao ), claimed to be a firefighter before and would lead everyone to escape from the ruins.

He took the initiative to stand up and distribute supplies uniformly. However, when supplies were in short supply, he seemed to hide some secrets and threatened the trapped people who knew about it.

There are two sides in the human heart, just in one thought.

People are fighting for resources and killing each other. The unfathomable human nature is more terrifying than the abyss visible to the naked eye.

In a desperate situation, the deepest desires hidden in the human heart are completely exposed.

Third, social reasoning.

This is the most hardcore part of the criminal investigation drama.

“Where there is shadow, there must be light."

After the building collapsed, forces from all walks of life quickly launched rescue operations. However, when the rescue was successful, the situation gradually became out of control.

When lives are threatened, the hearts of people under the ruins are darker than the dark sky. Except for those who have witnessed it, no one knows what happened there. What.

However, the truth cannot be buried in the abyss forever.

Interpol Ye Xiao (Wang Zhiwen) uncovered the truth under the abyss. As the case deepened, the doubts in his heart were like endless darkness.

This race between time and life brings many tests of human nature, morality and faith.

What the protagonist steps on is not only an interlocking maze of people's hearts, but also the suspense of finding traces. Password, when the story gets out of control as the plot progresses, the pleasure of watching the drama reaches its peak.

The whole cast is talented in acting, and many big names have joined the cast.

In addition to the story, the cast of this drama is also the quality of the drama. The biggest guarantee.

Let’s take a look at the powerful actors in "Twenty One Days".

The first place is Wang Zhiwen.

As a double star who has won the Feitian and Magnolia Awards, Wang Zhiwen’s ability to create characters is beyond compare. Doubtful.

In the spy drama "无码", his role as the villain Mu Xihe is the most stable, and he can show the character's scheming characteristics with just one glance.

Even though the series has a mediocre reputation, Wang Zhiwen's acting skills still received a lot of praise.

In the preview of the new drama, the detective Ye Xiao, played by Wang Zhiwen, has a serious expression. When he raises his eyes, his eyes are full of scrutiny. The image of an experienced policeman suddenly stands firm.

This type of role requires dramatic acting skills to be worthy of it.

second place, Jiang Wu.

In the past two years, Jiang Wu has not had many works outside the industry, but his acting skills have always been recognized by the audience. Especially the role played by Lao Tie in "八百" left a deep impression on the audience.

Jiang Wu performed the character's transformation from cowardly and cowardly to reserved and heroic. When he brandished a sword and sang Peking Opera towards sacrifice, the audience was deeply touched.

In the pilot film of "Twenty One Days", the character played by Jiang Wu showed an easy-going smile, and then the corners of his mouth sank, and his eyes were gloomy, making it difficult to distinguish between good and evil.

A good actor can use his acting skills to give his character a sense of mystery, and Jiang Wu is the best example.

The third place is Ou Hao.

In the past two years, Ou Hao's acting skills have become more and more superb.

Whether it is the restrained and inexpressive Qin Li in "The Coward" or the sincere, passionate, upright and kind-hearted Tong Xiaoqi in "The Wind Blowing Pinellia", Ou Hao can easily handle all kinds of characters with great contrast.

In "Twenty One Days", Ou Hao plays the trapped He Xiaoguang. In front of everyone, he is an honest and honest "savior", but in the corner where no one is paying attention, his face is cold and chilling. There is a lot of room for

. I hope Ou Hao can continue to achieve breakthroughs in acting this time.

ranked fourth, Zhang Xueying .

Due to being involved in negative scandals, Zhang Xueying's resources have not been very good in recent years, and she has not had many works outside the industry, but don't forget that she is also a little flower who relies on her acting skills.

In the movie "狗十三", Zhang Xueying naturally showed the contradictions, struggles and final compromises of the character. The director of the film, Cao Baoping, also spoke highly of her performance.

In the new drama, Zhang Xueying plays the heroine Haimei. She has a very important role. I hope she can seize the opportunity and become famous with this drama.

In addition, the play also has many powerful actors such as Wang Ting, Bao Wenjing, Kong Lin joining the cast. The overall acting skills are not weak, so the audience is waiting for a good show.

Conclusion:

The once popular criminal investigation drama has now fallen into a short silence. Is "Twenty One Days" capable of breaking the rules for criminal investigation dramas?

In my opinion, as long as it achieves this, it is destined to be a rare and good drama-

Real.

If criminal investigation dramas only follow the trend and blindly use false and exciting protagonists and exaggerated strong rhythms to create a superficial sense of pleasure, the essence of criminal investigation dramas may be lost.

Audiences have had enough of those bad dramas that are suspended and traffic-generating. Really good dramas can often impress people. Once word of mouth grows, the viewership potential is unlimited.

I hope that the feature film of "Twenty One Days" can live up to the audience's expectations, and we are now waiting for it to be broadcast on schedule.
