In the world of detective literature and movies, the "train" is an inescapable space and element. The ending case of the fifth season of
"Star Detective" occurred on a moving train, but the story is far more than just solving the case. While they were still intensively discussing, the countdown to the "bomb" sounded, window shots, screaming, and escaping, there was a mess, and the train "bang" and "exploded". The murderer in the first half has not been caught, new cases have appeared one after another, and the audience is falling into a more exciting detective world.
For a variety show, it is not easy to get to the second season, and it is even more difficult to achieve the fifth season. In addition, program-related topics have been searched 107 times across the Internet, of which Weibo has been searched 41 times and topped the list 22 times; Douban scored 8.9 points in the fifth season, and received the highest score in Douban's top ten in 2019. Domestic Variety shows, Sina's top ten variety shows in 2019, and the 8th China University Student Television Festival, the most popular online variety show among college students. The audience's eyes are discerning, they are constantly innovating in the core "detective" story, and are constantly deepening their connection with social reality. Surprises and resonance will always reward creators who dare to break through.
is fully upgraded,
come to experience another life in the "real scene"
"because it (train) is luxurious, full of emotion, and even deadly; because it moves fast, and it is very easy to form an isolated room. In such a small and depressing space, the dramatic tension and conflict that a good story must have naturally ran out." said Brener, the director of the 2017 movie "Murder on the Orient Express".
In order to further increase the tension of the story and bring more experience to guests and audiences, "Star Detective 5" is unlocking more types of real scenes. This season’s detectives have come directly to the moving luxury cruise ships and trains. The space is special, whether it is the relative independence and rich levels of the cruise ship, or the wonderful setting of the long and narrow space of the train that cannot avoid monitoring, the story is more exciting.
is not only an upgrade of the scene, the case of the fifth season is obviously more capable.
Traditional detective reasoning cases mostly revolve around the collection and demonstration of murder clues. And each story in "Star Detective 5" has its own completely different characteristics, whether it is the progress of the case, the design of the scene, the topic of concern, etc., it can bring new surprises. The
"Pianist on the Sea" case created a multi-layered "Inception of Dreams". On the Gulangyu cruise ship, you can enter the bottom photo world by holding multiple overlapping photos and taking pictures. Enter the photo world and return to the real world after being killed, and disappear from the real world after entering the photo world for more than 30 days. When people choose to go back because of regret, the overlapping timelines make people hooked.
In "Puppet Revenge", in order to further highlight the atmosphere, not only use nursery rhymes to start the story, but the case is designed as two consecutive murders in the secret room. The rhythm is fast and tense, and the result is confusing; "Pansi Restaurant" borrows the "back in time" Conceptual design, the case is unfolded through the legend of the moonlight pen and the moonlight treasure box, the intricate timeline, every time it is repeated, the logical starting point will be changed once, and there is no upper limit to the brain burn; "X School Murder" directly continues the fourth season At the end, the creativity of Liu Haoran, Zhang Ruoyun and other guests was turned into reality, and embryo transformation was discussed to make the show full of science fiction. Although the story of "MGQ Fashion Wind and Cloud" is not complicated, it has to restore the entire crime process and logic of the crime. It's amazing, it turns out to point to the truth one after another.
Almost every case is meticulously logical and contains surprises. The guests need to peel off the truth for a long time to make the final theme more profound.
Regarding the case, whether it is the confession of the culprit by all members of "The Pianist on the Sea" or the sudden "explosion" of the "Northern Slow Car Mystery", the cases in the show are no longer regulated.Zhongju’s brain-burning reasoning process further strengthens the content’s sense of participation, atmosphere and storytelling; in terms of scenes, from last season’s “unmanned island” to this season’s “luxury cruise ship” and “northern slow train”, more The unique space types coming and going are entering the Ming Detective universe, and the charm of the story can be stimulated to the greatest extent.
From the subject to the details, the
case can reflect the reality "shimmer"
"Maybe your slap is not on your child, but the moment the slap falls on the victim, the child looks in his eyes and hits him in his heart. It’s the same.” Sa Bening said when the northern slow train drew up slowly and the real murderer was caught in the closing case.
In "Sea Pianist", the reconciliation between father and son outlines the increasingly tense intergenerational relationship in the real world. Which sentence of gratitude the parents are waiting for the child? The child is waiting for an apology from the parents has become the best summary of all the contradictions; "Zhen's No Good Street" directly hits the topic of "Internet illegal production", from the secret photography of pinhole cameras to the application of others Information was borrowed, and several alarming hot cases were presented at one time. The discussion about personal information security in the era of big data and hidden risks under social sharing has also triggered a large number of official agencies including the Capital Internet Police and Hunan Public Security. Like the release of MGQ; "MGQ Fashion Wind and Cloud" describes a "workplace like a battlefield" environment, breaking through workplace violence and mid-life crisis in the workplace, coupled with the dedication of the guests, audiences at every stage can find their own Realistic pain points, but at the same time I also got a more correct workplace perception. Every case in the
show has become a microcosm of the real society. Whether it is a celebrity's forcible establishment, father-son relationship, domestic violence, etc., they are all designed into specific themes and embedded in them. These topics can take care of multiple levels of society. Angles.
The "Northern Slow Train Mystery Case" gives people two very important points to think about: "Everyone says that there are only zero and countless domestic violence, but no one tells us how people in it should save themselves. This case may be even worse. Let us think about this topic; in addition, we also asked whether it is possible for us to change the things we regret." The whole case also shows the process of people fighting against regret and leads to deeper reflection. When Xiao Zhan's "Exterminating Violence" became a death knight, he actually went astray when he wanted to control violence with violence. Accept regrets and embrace the future better.
"School X Murders" focuses on the "gene editing case" that is much discussed nowadays. The truth behind the "perfect child" moved Wang Ou to tears on the spot, and at the same time encouraged people to respect independent living entities, only protection and respect. In order to help them thrive; "Revenge of the Puppet" directly refers to prejudice, and uses a story that listened to rumors to cause tragedy to appeal to everyone to "make friends and look at others with your heart"; "NZND Concert" focuses on the topic of "star personality" , The characters in the plot lost themselves for the sake of false personality, and even hurt others, the players also felt a lot of this. After the show was broadcast, the topic of "how to treat celebrities forcibly erecting people" also appeared on hot searches, sparking heated discussions among netizens.
"Star Detective 5" caring for reality is not to use the shell of realistic topics to present entertainment content, but to refraction from the theme to the details, through the motivation of key characters, the reproduction of real scenes, and the feelings of the guests. , Experts and professional suggestions, etc., constantly arouse ordinary users in front of every screen, and continue to generate a steady stream of practical meaning.
"Focus on children, pay attention to victims of domestic violence, and say firmly to domestic violence, no!" The North Slow Train is still moving, and the volume of appeals is increasing. "Star Detective 5" reveals a world that may be overlooked but is closely related to us; and for the reproduction of this "link", the presentation in the program is both profound and warm. Although each season of the program focuses on social issues, the design of the case is closely linked with reality, and it is attempted to bury it in a dimension that is less discussed in the public view. This is the thinking of the creator, and the creator is trying to want the audience to think. The positive energy of
is not limited to the program, but also has an impact on a broader social level. It really makes this kind of reflection into the public view. Capital Internet Police, China University Student Online, Li Yinhe, and even the international NGO organization that focuses on women’s rights, Orange Umbrella Likes and others reflect the reality drive of the show, such as in "The Revenge of the Puppet"In the end, Li Yinhe appealed, “The most basic way to correctly understand a thing is to get rid of prejudice. Each of us should always maintain an objective and truth-seeking attitude, and treat the people and things around us.”
It can affect more people and promote the development of society in a healthier direction. This is its value.
From cross-border to extended border,
"Ming Detective Universe" is forming. When the last season of
ended, the interactive micro-series "Suspect One" brought the audience into a world of deep participation. The audience becomes a national detective, watching the micro-drama video while following the plot development and unlocking the plot clues. This new form allows users to participate in the whole process of finding clues and solving cases, as if they are in it, and the experience is very exciting.
In the fifth season, what innovations does the IP derivative have?
, as the NZND combination of the script roles in "Star Detective", can attract a lot of attention from related cases in each season. Before the broadcast of this season, the official announced that it would hold the NZND ice-breaking concert. In addition to the NZND of the Universe Group, the NZND directly sat on the excavator and jumped on the field. Substituting the virtual combination into reality, the entire interaction also opens up a new gameplay, and players can unlock more new content through multiple rounds of interaction.
All kinds of fresh and interesting elements, multiple participation in the gameplay, the boundaries of the "Ming Detective" IP are constantly expanding. The main clues surrounding how to make the audience more "participate", it is no longer just a program, but a set of watchable, playable, audible and imaginable exploration universe. The emergence of more normalized derivative programs of
can better reflect the ability of creators to operate this IP. "Famous Detective Academy", which was launched alternately with "Star Detective", invited more amateur guests to participate. Each issue will be based on different themes, combining team battles with individual battles, and will design things such as "look at the picture to find the true murderer" or "whether It has nothing to do with "Werewolf Killing" and other mini games, and select the detective assistant in the main program.
's "brain-burning reasoning" and completely different personnel match keep this variety IP at a high level, while also gaining access to more audiences' interest. The current Douban score of this derivative program is fixed at 9.2. Someone commented, “This kind of entertainment makes ordinary people have a strong sense of participation, and the process of thinking is very distinctive.” According to the show’s chief director He Shu , The second season of "Famous Detective Academy" "Famous Detective Dormitory" is also planned.
The entire Ming Detective IP is trying new ways of playing while also normalizing this innovation, making derivative programs a part of complementing the main program and achieving each other.
In November last year, the 4K restored version of "Sea Pianist" was released nationwide, and it achieved more than 100 million box office results. In the variety show on the other side of the theater, another "sea pianist" is performing. They jointly released a joint promotional video and poster to create the concept of simultaneous release. The dual linkage in time and content, large and small screens were opened at the same time, and the story was also diversified. In the end, the results naturally realized the mutual benefit of both parties. win.
In addition, "Star Detective" has also cooperated with many movies according to the different cases of each issue. For example, in "Puppet Revenge", "Emergency Rescue" starring Peng Yuyan and Xin Zhilei recorded relevant clues; Qin Feng, who plays a detective in "Detective Chinatown", also came to "Chinatown" in "Detective Star" to participate in the investigation. Subjects, elements, characters...There is only unexpected cooperation, no unachievable linkage.
The perfect ending of "Star Detective 5", the innovation of a comprehensive N-generation program to the extreme. From inside to outside, from programs to society, it seeks a deeper interaction. And this attitude of insisting on originality and caring for reality is the important inspiration left by this program to the industry.
""The Star Detective" is really a show where anything can happen." He Jiong said.
