The most popular film and television drama at the beginning of November is the result of the Golden Eagle Award . The hero and heroine of the TV series " The World " Lei Jiayin and Yin Tao both returned with the award, and the audience recognized their acting skills quite a bit. . In particular, Lei Jiayin, as the male protagonist, as the soul character in "The World", has propped up the main line to watch, and has also won a well-deserved title among many shortlisted actors.
Obviously, the awards for film and television dramas are now dominated by mainstream dramas, and the audience also places more expectations on powerful actors.
But unfortunately, the acting skills of actors are never the only guarantee for the quality of film and television dramas. The lineup is quite eye-catching, but the TV series " Big Game ", which has only been aired for two days, is like this. In this drama, Lei Jiayin, who just won the video emperor, also participated, but even he could not save the initial reputation of the drama.
click on the Douban comment area of the TV series "The Great Game" and you will find that the performance of this show is controversial in all aspects. Some netizens complained about the plot, "A factory on the verge of bankruptcy, a male protagonist who is open, and a plot of moral kidnapping. Only Wanqian fans and old actors are left, and there are a lot of people who take the name of a century-old factory seriously", and more There is a blunt statement, "The male and female lead actors each have 1 star, and the script and plot are too drawn."
Obviously, as a work with a mainstream theme and a strong cast, "The Great Game" did not meet the audience's expectations, and it also disappointed a large number of netizens to abandon the show. Judging from the level of the work itself, it is not that some netizens have strict requirements, but that the work itself has reasons to persuade the audience and make people unable to refute.
The rhythm is slow, and I lost patience at the beginning. Zhou Meisen screenwriter really missed this time
In fact, netizens who are more concerned about the trend of film and television dramas in the past two years can find that the audience's patience with domestic film and television dramas has become less and less . Those so-called "rewatch X episodes will look good" marketing tactics no longer work. Many works are life-and-death at a glance, and it is necessary to show quality in order to seize the opportunity and retain the audience.
The problem with "The Great Game" is that the rhythm is a little slow and even a little procrastinated at the beginning. The entire TV series revolves around a century-old factory that is on the verge of bankruptcy.
tells the story of Sun Heping, played by Qin Hao, who was urgently recalled for poor management and is about to go bankrupt. The North Machinery Company, with its strong professional ability, market sense and absolute leadership, leads everyone to transform a century-old factory that is hanging by the thread into a functional company. In just a few years, it has gained a new life and has succeeded in a successful boss.
According to Zhou Meisen's preferred narrative method, the premiere content of "The Great Game" needs to explore problems and show contradictions. But in at least three episodes, the main story of "The Great Game" is looser. The whole play uses a lot of space to introduce the characters, showing the feelings between the characters and the big factory.
As a 100-year-old company, the problems encountered by Northern Machinery Co., Ltd. are not clearly pointed out, whether it is internal contradictions or technical problems, or due to the influence of the general environment. Why this company urgently needs tens of millions of funds, and even what advantages this company has, and why it is necessary to continue to survive, did not tell the audience.
As a bystander, the audience did not even know whether the bankruptcy of Northern Machinery Company needed to stop losses in time or urgently needed reforms for the company itself. In the first three episodes, I just watched the male protagonist looking for old classmates for investment, but it failed to highlight the professional ability of the male protagonist.
Moreover, "The Big Game" is actually a work with a sense of age, and the main line of the TV series is to highlight the restructuring. It stands to reason that at this stage, there should be no more color-screen Android phones, ultra-thin large TVs and other props that highlight the characteristics of the times. The slow rhythm of
and the help in the manufacture of props let the audience take the lead in giving "The Big Game" an unprofessional definition.
The plot, the characters lack warmth, and the perspective is too high, so that the audience can't enter the play The reform will also suspend the role of the audience. After all, for ordinary people,Most audiences are unable to have an in-depth understanding of the operation of enterprises and the development of an industry.
Therefore, if "The Great Game" wants to make the audience empathize with , what it needs is a simple and easy-to-understand plot setting. But at present, the content of "The Great Game" is all about storytelling from the perspective of the upper level of the enterprise, and the audience cannot empathize and cannot enter the play.
Take the male protagonist played by Qin Hao as an example. As an overseas sales general manager, after serving as the factory manager, he began to find a way out for the factory. He used his connections to find his old classmates and old friends. , If you have money, you will make money, and you will be able to do your best.
and the male protagonist's network is also on the same level as himself. In the end, a group of savvy people are trying to find a way to make up an astronomical number that ordinary audiences can't imagine. In addition to marvelling at the huge amount of money, the money is just cold numbers to the audience.
Compared with the perspective of the leadership, the plight of the working class is the point of view that can arouse the empathy of the audience. Problems that technicians can't figure out even if they are bald, the poor working environment of workers, or the impending unemployment and family burdens after bankruptcy, are more realistic.
In short, the biggest problem with "The Great Game" is that the viewing angle is too high and the temperature is lacking. However, the show "The Great Game" is not useless, at least in terms of the actors' acting skills, Qin Hao, Lei Jiayin, Wan Qian and other powerful actors are all adding color to the characters. In the
drama, Lei Jiayin played a few roles, but he was amazing when he appeared on the stage. Maybe Lei Jiayin's character is not down to earth in terms of personality, but his performance is really real and natural.
In this rival scene with Qin Hao, the two chatted one after another. The two seemed to be chatting like friends, but in fact, every word was being tested. Qin Hao promised Lei Jiayin with a preferential price, but Lei Jiayin wanted to take the proxy price from Qin Hao.
The whole conversation has been discussed, there are games with words in adult words, and there are also decent ones.
From the perspective of actors, Qin Hao and Lei Jiayin grabbed the audience from the very beginning. Judging from the current reputation of the whole drama, the audience who are still looking forward to the follow-up plot of this drama is also because the actors in the drama are too eye-catching.
But unfortunately, a good drama is definitely a mutual drama between actors and characters. If the drama promotes people, it may go out of the circle, but if people promote the drama, it is destined to hit the street. If "The Great Game" wants to achieve good results, it really has to seize the opportunity to catch the audience's attention with the plot highlights and the growth lines of the characters while the audience is still expecting and patiently starting the broadcast.
Finally, I hope "The Big Game" can turn the tide, even if it can't save the audience who abandoned the show, but also retain the attention that the cast brought to the show.
