In the Chinese drama market in 2024, spy war dramas are simply going crazy. In the first two months of
, the entire domestic drama market was dominated by costume dramas and urban dramas, which left many fans of spy dramas feeling empty. Who would have thought that in March, a "Storm Chaser" would be released directly? Star CCTV has topped the popularity list for many days in a row, giving the spy war theme a boost.
And this drama has just ended a week ago, and "When the Stars Shine" was released on Hunan Satellite TV, continuing the splendor of spy dramas. Although this drama is not as strong as "Storm Chaser" in terms of lineup, it has been ranked first in satellite TV ratings for three consecutive days after only three days of airing. It is a great success.
This is not the end yet. There is another new spy drama that has been officially announced. It has a strong lineup and has become popular before it is aired. This drama is "Harbin 1994".
The drama is scheduled to be launched on the three major TV stations of Oriental, Jiangsu and Beijing on April 21, and will be broadcast exclusively on Taochang.
In addition to the spy war theme that makes the audience look forward to it, the most critical aspect of this drama is the casting.
Wandering among the big bosses, youthful and urban.
The heroine Yang Mi has devoted herself to improving her acting skills after leaving Jiaxing. She has not met the audience in film and television dramas in 2023, which shows that she wants to transform. determination. When I saw Yang Mi's performance in the trailer of the new drama, I thought that Yang Mi's first step in transformation was on the right track.
Yang Mi’s temperament is very resistant, and she can hold it no matter what style she wears. In the trailer, Yang Mi is wearing a straight suit and looks dignified. Just looking at her face can arouse the audience’s interest.
As Yang Mi's first drama to be broadcast after she decided to transform, whether her performance can once again withstand the audience's review depends on the release of the feature film of "Harbin 1944".
The male protagonist of "Harbin 1944" is also the powerful actor most familiar to the audience-Qin Hao.
Since the broadcast of dramas such as "The Hidden Corner" and "The Long Season", the audience has once again truly felt Qin Hao's ability to shape characters.
This time in the new drama "Harbin 1944", Qin Hao will play two roles, playing a pair of twin brothers, Song Zhuowen and Song Zhuowu. This is neither difficult nor difficult for Qin Hao.
Watching the trailer, Qin Hao is full of tension. There is no shadow of Zhang Dongsheng in "The Hidden Corner" or Gong Biao in "The Long Season". His eyes are full of determination and contemplation, and he looks like a ruthless character at first glance.
was hit on the head by someone who disagreed with him. He looked at the blood on his hand with a look of disbelief. At this time, the character looked submissive.
The scene changed and Song Zhuowen's brother Song Zhuowu was arrested. His face was completely indifferent and he didn't care about life and death.
In another shot, Song Zhuowen said anxiously and sadly that he couldn't even protect his brother, so what else could he protect? He was like a child who hadn't grown up, crying to his friends about his sadness.
Different characters under different lenses.
Although these two roles are played by Qin Hao, at a glance, the audience can still clearly distinguish the differences between these two characters. One is resolute and courageous, and the other is brave and resourceful. Such contrasting characters The setting makes the audience look forward to Qin Hao's performance in the feature film even more.
Fortunately, Qin Hao's acting skills are high-level throughout the whole process, otherwise, if he had a slight crotch pull, he would be overwhelmed by this group of awesome supporting actors. All members of
are kings. This one is definitely the number one in the master game
, Zhang Guoqiang.
As the best actor in the revolutionary category of Huading TV dramas, spy war dramas have always been Zhang Guoqiang’s domain. This powerful actor with a loyal and honest appearance will play the role of the hero's upper-level leader in the new drama. As a special guest, his role will not be too much, but he is still indispensable.
Moreover, with Zhang Guoqiang’s character creation ability, this character will definitely be able to steal the spotlight. In the trailer of
, he has a sad face, telling the male protagonist to pay attention to the mission time and ensure his personal safety. He looks like an underground party member with great potential.Just this one scene makes people look forward to the feature film.
ranked second, Jiang Qiming.
Jiang Qiming played Fu Weijun in "The Long Season", which can be said to have made the audience cry.
His performance is full of explosive power. Even in "The Long Season", there is not a single line, but with his eye expressions and body movements, Jiang Qiming contributed one highlight clip after another.
In the new drama "Harbin 1944", Jiang Qiming will play the role of Tian Xiaojiang. As soon as the trailer appeared, there was a sense of fragmentation.
was wearing a prison uniform, with his hands covering his chest. His whole body seemed to be in great pain. He walked in and looked at the person opposite. His eyes were red and seemed to be shining with tears. He opened his mouth to say something, but the scene stopped abruptly. It's not easy to see this character in just one shot.
Jiang Qiming's acting skills are relaxed and moderate, delicate in emotional scenes, and full of explosiveness in crying scenes. With such a golden supporting role, Qin Hao must be careful not to be robbed of his role.
ranked third, Zhang Zixian.
is another golden supporting role! Zhang Zixian has the face of a comedian, but when he plays the villain, don't tell me, he is really interesting.
In the new drama "Harbin 1944", Pan Yue, played by Zhang Zixian, is bent on catching Song Zhuowen and driving him out of the Secret Service. In the trailer, Zhang Zixian is wearing a suit and glasses. He looks gentle, but he has more eyes than a sieve.
As one of the leading actors, Zhang Zixian must have a lot of scenes. There is also a scene in the trailer where Pan Yue raises a gun in the rain and looks at the enemy hidden in the dark in front of him. His whole body is tense and his expression is extremely nervous.
With such a strong sense of immersion, it seems that Zhang Zixian has completely entered the role. With such a poisonous enemy spying on his actions, the twin brothers played by Qin Hao must be careful.
ranked fourth, Lin Jiachuan.
The ruthless Tang Xiaolong at the center of "Hurry Up" is also here. In "Hurry", Lin Jiachuan made the role of Tang Xiaolong popular all over the Internet with his outstanding acting skills. From the street gangster who pretends to be powerful to the unscrupulous second-in-command, Lin Jiachuan perfectly grasps the contrast between the characters before and after.
In the new drama "Harbin 1944", Lin Jiachuan plays the role of He Shan. Although we don't know whether this character is good or evil, we can see from the drama that this person is not easy to mess with.
In addition, Luan Yuanhui, Wang Herun, Sha Baoliang, Feng Bing and other powerful actors will play important roles in the play. It is no exaggeration to say that all the members are "kings".
