On the stage of domestic suspense dramas, 2023 is destined to be a milestone year.

's first drama " The Long Season " has created a life suspense drama with a brighter style and a more humorous plot.

even used the three elderly men to complete the deconstruction of their fate in the process of solving the case, creating a good drama with a long aftertaste.

In the end, this drama received a high reputation of 9.4, becoming the ceiling of suspense dramas.

The theater’s two subsequent productions have not lost their reputation.

With the launch of three high-scoring dramas, the brand of x theater has also been established.

Entering 2024, x theater continues to work hard, and recently launched the fourth work "黑土无语".

The drama is a suspenseful criminal investigation drama directed by Zang Xichuan and starring Chen Jianbin, Hu Jun, Deng Jiajia and others.

With Zhuyu from the first three high-scoring dramas at the forefront, the audience's expectations for "Black Soil Silence" are very high, and the number of reservations directly exceeded 2 million. The popularity of

Looking at word of mouth, many viewers in Douban’s short comment section gave this drama good reviews.

has a praising plot, a real and down-to-earth traditional criminal investigation, and a strong atmosphere of the fireworks of the times.

Some people praised the actors. Chen Jianbin and Hu Jun were very impressive, and Deng Jiajia’s mysterious female boss Wang Ping was amazing.

Some viewers said frankly that this drama has the feel of "Serious Case Group Six", like a true criminal investigation story in which the mission must be achieved no matter what.

After finishing 7 episodes in one go, Qingshi will show you what are the highlights of "Black Soil Silence".

1. The story starts straight to the point, 3 people were offline in 6 minutes and 4 suspects were introduced.

As a suspense detective drama, "Black Soil Silence" does not make any mystery at the beginning, but goes straight to the theme.

A horrific murder occurred in Lanhe County in northeast China. Three people were killed overnight.

These three people all died in the famous local enterprise Hongqiao Group, and the cause of death of each person was also different.

Yan Hongqiao, the boss of Hongqiao Group, died of gunshot wounds, the security guard had his throat cut, and female college student Chen Xiaoming committed suicide by jumping off the building.

I have to say that there were three dead and three lives in the first 6 minutes, and the pace of the series is not unpleasant.

Since Lanhe County was withdrawn from the county at that time, this case was taken seriously. The criminal investigation captain Guan Yu (played by Chen Jianbin) was ordered to solve the case and a military order was issued for five days to solve the case.

With the investigation of the case, four suspects related to the case were also introduced.

The first one is Yang Si (played by Hu Jun).

The police found fingerprints at the crime scene. After investigation, the owner of the fingerprints was a man named Yang Si.

Yang Si, nicknamed Heqiao Laosi, was imprisoned for robbery and wounding fifteen years ago and was just released from prison two months ago.

Moreover, after this case occurred, Yang Si’s whereabouts were also unknown.

So Guan Yu immediately ordered a search for Yang Si, and found traces at a bus station and arrested him.

After Yang Si was arrested, he was vague at first. He did not explain the situation until his fingerprints were found.

He went to Yan Hongqiao's company on the night of the incident because his house was on fire and he wanted to find a warm place to spend the night.

The reason why there were his fingerprints at the scene was because he found someone dead inside and wanted to take the opportunity to find something valuable.

When the police asked him why he didn't call the police, Yang Si explained that the phone bill was too expensive.

The police naturally did not believe Yang Si's answer, but based on the currently known evidence, it is indeed impossible to prove that Yang Si was the murderer.

So the police continued to investigate Yang Si's social relations and unexpectedly found a clue.

Yang Si's stepson Yang Xuesong (played by Wang Guangyuan), and the deceased female college student Chen Xiaoming were once lovers.

Chen Xiaoming broke up with Yang Xuesong for money, and first stayed with Yan Hongqiao's nephew Feng Gen, and then became Yan Hongqiao's lover.

On the computer at the Internet cafe where Yang Xuesong once worked, the police even found chat records between him and Chen Xiaoming.

Yang Xuesong once said that one day he would kill Yan Hongqiao. So far, the second suspect Yang Xuesong has been locked in. The motive for the murder was love and hatred.

However, after the police obtained evidence that Yang Xuesong was suspected of murder, Yang Si admitted to the police that the murder was a homicide.

However, Yang Si's confession was full of doubts, and the police also discovered that Yang Si might not be the real Yang Si.

In addition to Yang Si and Yang Xuesong, two other people are also suspected.

One is Yan Hongqiao’s ex-wife Wang Ping (played by Deng Jiajia).

Wang Ping is also a well-known entrepreneur in Lan County. After her divorce, she concentrated on her career and had many business dealings with Yan Hongqiao.

But her ex-husband was killed, and she was not surprised when the police came to question him.

It was Wang Ping who gained the most after Yan Hongqiao's death, and she also obtained the rights to develop new lands through various means.

And she also received a text message saying that Yang Si had confessed.

From this, one cannot help but wonder whether Wang Ping was one of the masterminds behind the murder of her ex-husband.

The other is Yan Hongqiao's nephew Feng Gen (played by Yu Yang).

After the incident, Feng Gen made a fuss outside the gate. When the police did not disclose any information, he said that the person who died was his uncle.

The dead Chen Xiaoming was once his lover, but soon he became his uncle's Xiaomi.

When the police investigated the pistol used at the scene of the crime, they also discovered that the person who traded the pistol was Feng Gen.

Various incidents indicate that Feng Gen is closely related to the murder case.

It has to be said that a bizarre murder turned a small town upside down, and the truth of the case became confusing.

Who is the murderer? What is Yang Si’s true identity?

believes in these answers. As the plot unfolds, the truth will emerge one by one.

2. The acting show is on. Chen Jianbin is "stable", Hu Jun is "ruthless", and Deng Jiajia plays a popular "sister-in-law".

In addition to the wonderful plot, x theater also has another feature, that is, it has rich acting skills.

From Fan Wei in "The Long Season" to Ning Li in "Under the City", everyone's performance is unforgettable.

The same is true for "Black Soil Silence", which has many talented actors, the first of which are the two male protagonists Chen Jianbin and Hu Jun.

Let’s talk about Chen Jianbin first.

Because Chen Jianbin has played the role of a policeman in works such as "Trident" and "Thirteen Years of Ashes", he has also contributed outstanding performances.

So for Chen Jianbin, he is very good at playing the role of a policeman, and he can also perform with his own unique flavor.

In this drama, Chen Jianbin plays the role of the criminal police captain Guan Yu, and he is very effective when he appears.

I was eating alone at home. Before I even took a bite, I was called to the murder scene. I couldn't turn on the car while driving, so I had to take a comrade's motorcycle to go there.

After arriving at the scene, Guan Yu suffered from hypoglycemia due to not eating breakfast. Guan Yu squatted down and ate a piece of candy before he felt relieved.

These simple shots outline the image of a middle-aged man whose life is unsatisfactory and whose health is deteriorating.

But as soon as Guan Yu entered the crime scene, his identity changed, from a middle-aged man to a professional policeman.

looked at the corpse, investigated the scene, and even had several crime processes appear in his mind in a short period of time, and then overturned them one by one.

Through these details of handling the case, Chen Jianbin well conveyed a sense of persuasion with the keen intuition and experience of this criminal police officer.

Then there is Hu Jun.

In this drama, Hu Jun changed his past tough guy image and played the role of Yang Si, a rugged man from the Northeast. The character

is nicknamed "Heqiao Lao Si". When he was young, he took advantage of the cover of night to rob, and his attacks were particularly ruthless. Anyone caught by him would lose half of his life.

As soon as Hu Jun appeared on the scene, he showed the viciousness of this character.

The scar on half of his face, the fierceness in his eyes, and the suspected murder tool in his hand scared the drunkard to the point of peeing. After

was arrested as a suspect, Hu Jun also showed Yang Si's cunning when facing police questioning.

Just confessed where he was during the time of the crime, and he gave multiple versions.

What he said depends entirely on where the police ask questions, and then depends on what evidence the police have.

Just like what the police said about Yang Si in the play: When an awl is pierced into a fiberglass ball, the tip will be slippery.

At the same time, Hu Jun also performed the delicate emotions of this Northeastern man, such as his guilt and confusion after the death of his ex-wife.

His adopted son bought him a new mobile phone. While he declined vaguely, he wiped his hands and picked it up to look at happily.

The most exciting thing is the rivalry between Chen Jianbin and Hu Jun.

After Yang Si was caught, he pretended to be honest and honest at first. Every time, Guan Yu had to nudge him with clever words so that he could squeeze out some useful information.

There are two people, one is serious and the other is making jokes, and then you go back and forth, you attack and I defend, and the sense of confrontation is very strong.

In addition, although the acting aura of the two male protagonists is very strong, "little aunt" Deng Jiajia also contributed dazzling acting skills.

In the drama, Wang Ping, played by Deng Jiajia, is the ex-wife of "Black Boss" Yan Hongqiao.

came to the north from the south to make a living when she was young, and then married Yan Hongqiao. After the divorce, she became a female entrepreneur and maintained business relationships with her ex-husband.

After her ex-husband died, she used only a basketball game, a Hongmen banquet, and a few carefully prepared documents to suppress her competitors and gain control of the project.

It can be said that Wang Ping is just like the heroine Fu Jiang in the comics her secretary often reads. She has a beautiful face and figure, and is a beautiful and dangerous woman.

Deng Jiajia also performed the characteristics of this character very well, hiding ambition and courage under her beautiful appearance.

I have to say that after the "sister-in-law" played by Gao Ye in "Crazy", Deng Jiajia's "sister-in-law" is also going to be popular. After

3 and "The Long Season", "Northeast Suspense Universe" has another hit.

As we all know, Northeast China has always been a "hotbed" for the birth of suspense dramas.

Works such as Qin Hao's "Undocumented Crime" and Fan Wei's "Meritorious Service: Old Events in the Northeast" all set the background of their stories in the Northeast.

Following "The Long Season", "Black Soil Silence" also uses the Northeast as its background.

But compared with the warm tones of "The Long Season", "Black Soil Silence" is cooler from the pictures to the story.

The story begins with a bizarre murder case. As the investigation deepens, a period of Northeastern past events spanning from 1990 to 2005 also emerges.

In the investigation of the case, "Black Soil Silence" also returns to the shooting techniques and narrative logic of traditional criminal investigation dramas.

In an era when surveillance was not widespread, the police in the drama ran the case on two legs and found new clues through the suspect's social relationships.

then raises questions based on the existing evidence, then looks for supporting evidence, and finally makes a fact-based judgment to reveal the truth of the case to the audience step by step.

I have to say that this kind of following-like reasoning experience is really immersive, and it is easy for the audience to get involved in the plot.

The most important thing is that the play is not only a pursuit of a murder case, but also a case that cuts into the background of county withdrawal.

As the tide of the times rolls forward, people in the black soil are fighting fiercely for survival, profit, and friendship. Buried under the black soil is the truth, the past, and human nature.

So compared to the murder case, the series focuses more on the fate of the characters and their choices.

For example, Yang Si, under his rough character appearance is his passionate love for his wife and son, and the self-sacrifice he has made for this love.

Guan Yu’s persistence is the interpretation of the soil and water that nourish a person.

Although the black soil town is small, it is also the place where a group of people have their "roots". Here are the memories they want to protect and the future they want to manage.

So you see, from "The Long Season", "Happy Face", "Under the Busy City" to "The Silent Black Soil".

Although the stories are different, the essence of the series is actually the same. They both describe the joys and sorrows of small people in a big era.

I have to say that such a suspenseful work is really worth watching.
