Since November has entered, the domestic drama market has become hot.

The period drama " Alley People " has a strong period atmosphere and superb acting skills. It has received a lot of praise since its launch and remains very popular.

After being dormant for more than half a year, the ancient puppet drama suddenly seemed to have an enlightenment. " Yongye Xinghe " and " Pearl Curtain and Jade Curtain " each have new ideas and are equally popular.

and the fantasy drama "大梦guili" have also gained the love of many audiences.

But while other genres are competing against each other, there is still one genre that has not seen much movement, and that is spy dramas.

Except for "Storm Chaser", there hasn't been a spy drama worth watching this year.

But don’t worry, there is a spy drama scheduled for now.

" Rivals" will be broadcast on cctv8 on November 7 and will be broadcast simultaneously on Goose Factory.

After watching the trailer, the plot of this drama is full of twists and turns, and the atmosphere is tense and depressing. The spy drama that the audience has been waiting for for a long time is really here this time.

01 Taking life as a guide, breaking the situation and arresting the murderer

" Enemy " tells the story of national security police officer Wu Yu ( Liao Fan) who took off his police uniform because of a secret theft case. From then on, his temperament changed drastically, and he began a 19-year-long The path to pursue the murderer.

At Wu Yu's insistence, he used the only clue to uncover the layers of disguise, battled wits and courage with the enemy, and was finally able to prove his innocence.

It can be seen from the trailer and synopsis that this drama is different from the usual spy dramas of the era, but an anti-special spy drama in a modern setting. There are two most interesting aspects of this drama. Worth paying attention to.

Highlight 1: Criminal investigation and espionage are combined in a novel format.

In spy war dramas, searching for intelligence, catching moles, and working as undercover agents are all classic scenes. However, the spy war dramas of the past two years have incorporated some fresh elements on this basis. For example, "Storm Chaser" combines the financial industry with Combined with espionage.

This new drama combines popular criminal investigation elements with spy dramas.

In the play, the confidential originals of the 14th Academy of Aerospace City were stolen, and the murderer was nowhere to be found. Only Wu Yu was a major suspect. As a result, he was imprisoned, lost his job, and left his fiancée.

Many years later, a new generation of national security police officer Guo Weijie (played by Zhang Kaitai) launched a new investigation into this case. He also became a witness to Wu Yu's pursuit of the truth.

In the play, Wu Yu's investigation and the police's pursuit are two clues running in parallel, perfectly integrating the treacherousness of the espionage war with the suspense of the criminal investigation.

Highlight 2: The game between good and evil, the pursuit of the murderer spanning many years.

As can be seen from the title of the play "Enemy", this play mainly shows the game between good and evil. Wu Yu, who is lonely and persistent in pursuing the truth, is an old enemy of Zhang Chi (played by Qidao), a cunning criminal.

Wu Yu is the only person who has seen Zhang Chi in the play, and this has become his obsession. So he kept his name anonymously, delivered food, fought in underground boxing rings, and worked as a bartender, trying to find the real murderer in these places.

And Zhang Chi is a criminal with no guilt. He knows that Wu Yu has been looking for his whereabouts, so he staged a trick and appeared around him.

There are many action scenes such as street car chases and hard-core fights in the drama, which are exciting and exciting to watch.

The cases in this drama are confusing and the relationships between the characters are complicated. Just by looking at the plot, this drama will be settled.

02 Liao Fan takes the lead, and the powerful players gather together

In spy war dramas, the plot is flesh and blood, and the characters in the drama are bones. Therefore, the characters stand up and the plot is convincing, so all the castings for this drama are Powerful faction.

ranked first, Liao Fan.

Liao Fan's outstanding acting skills have allowed him to occupy a place in film and television dramas. In "The Silent Truth" and the movies "Let the Bullets Fly" and " Evil Does Not Suppress Right ", Liao Fan's performance left a deep impression on the audience. impression.

In the new drama, Liao Fan plays Wu Yu. After losing his identity as a police officer, he walks on the edge of black and white. His hair is longer, he has a beard, he is dressed in black, and his temperament has become gloomy.

In the trailer, Wu Yu stared ahead as if he thought of something, but his eager steps suddenly stopped, as if he thought of something and was momentarily stunned.

Wu Yu's momentary frustration and decadent mood as well as his tenacity and stubborn character were vividly performed by Liao Fan, and his performance has always been stable.

is second, Zhu Zhu.

Zhu Zhu is definitely an actress with both good looks and abilities. Her roles in "The Story of Rose" and "Rebel" are all very eye-catching.

once again appeared in a spy drama. Different from the elegance and nobility in "Rebel", the Huang Xiao she played in this drama wore a pink wig and heavy makeup as soon as she appeared on the stage, but it did not affect Zhu at all. Pearl's original beauty.

As soon as the camera turned, Huang Xiao seemed to be a different person again. She was even more beautiful and attractive in a black, close-fitting long skirt.

Huang Xiao should be the owner of the bar where Wu Yu works, but her identity is not as simple as it seems. Zhu Zhu's interpretation of this role is worth looking forward to.

third place, Li Jian.

With his tough-guy appearance and calm temperament, Li Jian has almost become a professional in military and police roles. For example, Li Xiang in "Hurry" and Qin Yong in "The Boy Who Can't See a Shadow" are both upright police officers in the drama.

In the new drama, Li Jian plays the role of national security police officer Hu Xiafeng, a former colleague and friend of Wu Yu. In the trailer, when Hu Xiafeng scolded Guo Weijie, he glared at him fiercely and shouted out a sentence full of anger.

This kind of calm and serious police character is already familiar to Li Jian.

ranked fourth, Zhang Zhijian.

Veteran actor Zhang Zhijian has created many classic roles in the domestic drama market. Gao Yuliang in "In the Name of the People" and Meng Dehai in "Hurry" are both fresh in the audience's memory.

After "Hurry", Zhang Zhijian once again played Li Jian's superior. In the new drama, he played Luo Ping. Just standing there with a dark face made him feel oppressive.

A role like this should be played by an experienced actor to be able to hold up the role.

In addition, there are actors such as Kai Tai and Qi Dao in the drama. I believe that so many powerful actors can join forces to present a spy drama.

03 Conclusion

Spy dramas are a popular genre in the domestic drama market, and the previous films such as "Insidious", " Cliff ", " Rumors " and "The Pretender" are all well-known classics.

Nowadays, the "golden age" of spy dramas is long gone. In the past few years, only "Renegade" and "Storm Chaser" have achieved both popularity and reputation. Compared with the frequent hits in the past, it can't help but make people sigh.

But the emergence of "Enemy" seems to bring new hope.

is a spy drama with a modern background that is relatively rare among domestic dramas. This drama not only retains the elements of classic spy dramas, but also incorporates elements of criminal investigation that are more popular with current audiences. The two complement each other.

As long as the quality of the plot is consistent with the trailer, this drama is expected to surpass the classic.
