Two works were produced in succession last year, opening up a new track for domestic criminal investigation suspense dramas.
A movie version of " The Three Brigades " and a drama version of "The Three Brigades".
The two works were broadcast one after another, with the same story setting and different presentation methods. Although both versions have been adapted, the ascetic police image presented in the works is extremely moving.
The leading actors in the two works are all well-known and capable actors. One is Zhang Yi, and the other is Qin Hao.
It is precisely because of the popularity of these two dramas that a number of criminal investigation suspense dramas of the same type quickly entered everyone's field of vision.
These dramas have a common setting, that is, there is a policeman who has been chasing the murderer for many years.
seems to have similar settings, but the stories and characters presented are completely different. For example, " Rivals Shanhe Wuming", which has been released in trailers and warmed up in advance, is both familiar and unique.
Judging from the genre, this drama is a criminal investigation suspense, but it also incorporates counter-espionage elements. Therefore, it can also be called a modern spy drama, which is still very fresh for the audience.
At present, this drama has been reviewed and certified and will be broadcast soon. The spy war drama is about to explode again!
One, chasing the murderer for 19 years, searching for the truth with a lone voice
The last modern spy drama that broke out of the industry was " versus " starring Guo Jingfei and Tan Zhuo.
It’s just that the main perspective of this drama is focused on spies. Unlike most spy war dramas, which focus on portraying positive characters, they emphasize negative characters.
This "Old Enemy: Mountains and Rivers Nameless" focuses on Wu Yu (played by Liao Fan), a police officer from the National Security Bureau. In order to find out the truth of a case, he has been chasing the murderer for 19 years.
Wu Yu seems to be wandering around the world, working indefinitely as a delivery boy, a boxer, etc., but in fact, these identities are just his disguise.
In fact, in the past 19 years, Wu Yu has never forgotten the goal in his heart, and relied on his lonesome courage to trace the truth of the past.
On the way to reveal the secret, he battles wits with the enemy and gets closer and closer to the real culprit. Can he succeed in chasing the culprit? In the
trailer, Wu Yu and the criminal suspect passed each other, but the two people, who seemed to have no intersection, were both aware of each other's existence.
Wu Yu passed by as if nothing happened, but the moment he passed by, the other party showed a fierce expression, which was enough to show how dangerous Wu Yu's situation was.
On the other side, there is a new generation of national security police officers. As witnesses of his pursuit of the murderer, under his influence, he grew into an industry pioneer and followed Wu Yu's footsteps to investigate this old case.
The ultimate battle between black and white and the inheritance of two generations of national security police can be glimpsed in this drama.
2, actor + goddess, stunning casting full of sexual tension
Compared to the plot, what is even more stunning is the casting of "Old Enemy: Mountains and Rivers Nameless".
ranks first, Liao Fan.
The actor Liao Fan takes the leading role as the leading actor Wu Yu, and the audience can follow the drama with confidence.
Liao Fan, a recognized actor, is not inferior to Zhang Yi or Qin Hao in his acting skills, or even better. Therefore, it is not a problem for Liao Fan to portray a character who has been chasing a murderer for nineteen years and has tenacity and belief. .
This drama allows everyone to see once again how malleable Liao Fan is.
In the trailer, as long as he changes his appearance, his look and feel will be completely different. When he was young, he had the sense of immediacy of a tough guy and a sense of justice.
But as he grows older and changes his identity, Liao Fan, as a delivery boy, has experienced more vicissitudes of life. When he became a boxer, his whole body was filled with a strong sense of hostility.
Every time you switch to another identity, the look and feel is completely different. This is the great thing about Liao Fan. The same character can also perform completely different textures.
In the trailer, Liao Fan's fighting scenes are full of punches, which is hearty to watch. He can fight and act well. If "Old Enemy: Mountains and Rivers Nameless" can recruit Liao Fan to play the male lead, it has already won the starting line.
is second, Zhuzhu.
In fact, when paired with an actor like Liao Fan, no matter what type of actress she is, she will have a sense of cliché. But when she saw the sexy and charming Zhu Zhu with an equally subversive look as the heroine, she was instantly stunned.
Zhu Zhu's appearance in the play also has two different stages. One is the girlhood, which looks clean and free from dust.
The other one is dressed sexy and coquettishly, wearing a pink wig, making her look high-profile and eye-catching.
This also makes people wonder what kind of role Zhu Zhu plays. Not only does he have an obvious age span, but his identity is constantly changing. There are so many opposite roles for the male protagonist who has traveled across half of China to chase the murderer. ?
Several previous works have allowed Zhu Zhu to prove herself with her strength. She is not just a beautiful vase with a good figure, her acting skills are her specialty.
is third, Li Jian.
After "Hurry", Li Jian became a professional policeman as he wished. This time in the play, he also plays a policeman.
Since I have portrayed many characters of the same type before, when I saw the policeman in plainclothes wearing black in the trailer, I didn’t need any time to substitute. I felt that Li Jian was the plainclothes policeman himself.
Li Jian's strength is also obvious to everyone, and it depends on his performance next.
ranked fourth, Zhang Zhijian.
The choice of Cheung Chi-kin to play the role of the police chief is also a stroke of genius. The role of
must not only have a sense of majesty, but also a sense of mystery that is unpredictable, and an actor like Zhang Zhijian who exudes a strong aura is perfect.
When you see him wearing a police uniform in the trailer, you will know that he is a very majestic chief.
Based on the strengths of these actors, they will definitely not be a hindrance.
A little worried.
After watching the trailer, the most worrying thing about the casting selection is that Qi Dao is both a director and an actor.
The previous one was also directed and acted by Qidao, and even served as screenwriter, which was the spy drama "无码" by Jin Dong and Wang Zhiwen.
This work is the most suspended and mysterious spy drama I have seen in recent years. The cast is impeccable, but Qidao's writing skills and directing ability are obviously still far behind.
Now as a director, he is still directing a modern spy war with a wider span than "Infernal Affairs". It is difficult not to worry about Qidao's level.
But one thing is for sure, Qidao, who is an actor, is not bad at acting. In the trailer, several scenes opposite Liao Fan were also sparkling.
hopes that Qidao can show his true level this time and stop holding back.
Have you watched this new drama by Qi Dao and Liao Fan?
