It is an indisputable fact that it is difficult to produce high-quality workplace dramas.
's last out-of-the-box work was "Ideal City" starring Sun Li. In the past few years, there have been many workplace dramas launched in the Chinese drama market, but only a handful of them have met expectations.
If you want to reverse the reputation of workplace dramas, you have to watch the upcoming dramas.
After four years, Sun Li starred in another workplace drama. This time she played a salesperson in the insurance industry. She was a female character who reached the top, was dragged to the bottom by newcomers, and turned against the wind to reach new heights. .
For Sun Li, workplace dramas are her specialty. She has never let anyone have dramas when she acted as an agent who sells a house, and it is no problem to portray a growth-oriented role in the construction industry.
In addition, her vision for selecting dramas is very precise, and she is not good at acting. It is conceivable that the quality of this "39 Twenty-Eight" will not be bad.
has another work, which is even more likely to become a big hit than Sun Li's drama. Even CCTV has strongly promoted it. The first shot of the 2024 national drama is likely to be started by "A Bright Future".
1, main creator: "The First Half of My Life" + "The Wind Blowing Pinellia" team
The reason why Sun Li's "Thirty-Nine Twenty-Eight" is worth looking forward to is precisely because in addition to the starring cast, all members are talented, plus In addition to Sun Li's quality assurance.
director Wang Jun is also a famous director in the industry who has launched many hit dramas such as " Little Joy " and " Rose Story ".
The importance of the creative team is self-evident. It can be said that it directly determines the quality of the work, and the production team of "A Bright Future" is even more impressive than that of "39 Twenty-Eight".
director Shen Yan has directed works such as "Tiansheng Changge" with a word-of-mouth rating of over 8, " Together ", and is also the director of hit dramas such as " Golden Years " and " My First Half of Life " director.
Shen Yan’s greatest advantage is his ability to capture topical and popular works. In addition, his works are also full of reality.
For workplace dramas that are most afraid of suspension, Shen Yan has undoubtedly given everyone a reassurance.
The screenwriter of this drama, Zhang Ting, should not be underestimated. He wrote "The Long River" and "The Ming Dynasty". The most popular work is "The Wind Blowing Pinellia" starring Zhao Liying.
There is no doubt that the strong cooperation between the two is a double insurance for "A Bright Future".
2. Plot: In the financial field, the bottom fights back
A truly good drama also needs a good script.
's "A Bright Future" focuses its main perspective on the financial field, starting from banks, with Lin Qiang (played by Bai Yu), deputy director of the audit department of the United Bank Head Office, as the entry point.
His level and position were not low to begin with, but because he was unwilling to sign on a problematic loan, he offended his superiors and was directly transferred to the Longyuan branch, which had the lowest performance.
Although Lin Qiang, who was demoted, was not convinced, he did not sit still and wait for death. Instead, he worked with Zheng Shuai, another demoted friend who entered the bank at the same time, to solve the problem of chaotic management of Longyuan branch.
relied on his professional ability to find the crux of the problem in Longyuan Branch and solved the problems one by one. At the same time, he helped the tellers of Longyuan Branch to fight for their due benefits and gained the support of more people.
But Lin Qiang, who had offended his superiors before, also offended the branch president Hao Wei because of this move, so the other party put pressure on him everywhere.
As the saying goes, leave a thin line in life so that we can meet each other easily in the future. But Lin Qiang's immediate bosses wanted to beat the troubled Lin Qiang to death directly, which forced Lin Qiang, whose career was in crisis, to fight back.
The United Bank loan case began to be investigated, and the problem was cleared. While saving his career, he also realized his desire to serve small, medium and micro enterprises.
It can be seen that the character Lin Qiang portrayed in "A Promising Young Woman" is a low-level person who has been suppressed time and time again. He sticks to his original intention and does not do anything illegal and disciplined but is retaliated against. After fighting hard, he removes the cancer of the bank. A cool drama setting.
Although the previous film "City Within", which focused on the financial field, overturned, "A Promising Day" is still worth looking forward to.
After all, from the perspective of casting, most of the characters in this drama are male. The female characters are supporting roles in the drama. Naturally, they will not have a large proportion of scenes. This means that "Promising Young Woman" will not Describe the main character's emotions in a large space.
Therefore, compared to "City Within a City", "A Promising Young Woman" will be a purer workplace drama.
Three, lineup: de-traffic, all-star support
Today’s domestic dramas like to use the old and new model most to ensure the popularity of the series and the level of acting skills, but this "Promising Future" is a show that is obviously de-traffic. A work that does not require non-talented actors to play the leading role.
adds another layer of assurance to the quality of the series.
The male protagonist Bai Yu has appeared in "The Silent Truth", "Children of the Qiao Family", "The Wind Rises in Longxi" and other works. Although he entered everyone's attention as a traffic star through the drama "Soul" , but soon transformed and embarked on the path of strength.
What Bai Yu is best at portraying is this kind of character who has been pushed to the bottom and fights back. The role of Lin Qiang in "A Bright Future" feels somewhat tailor-made for him.
Among the powerful actors, Wang Zhifei is the most familiar to the audience and plays the most roles. Although before starring in " Anti-Black Storm ", he had already appeared in many works such as " The Great Qin Empire " and "Beijing Youth". , but the most impressive one is still Gao Mingyuan in "Sweeping the Dark".
But Wang Zhifei is good at playing villains. The role he plays in the drama this time has a bit of joy just by looking at it. He is probably a smooth professional person. I can't help but want to see him and other actors. They are showing off their acting skills online.
In addition, there are Dong Yong, who was nominated for the Magnolia Award for Best Supporting Actor for " Blossoms ", and Li Naiwen, who has appeared in dramas such as "I'm Not the God of Medicine" and " Solid as a Rock ".
Chen Baoguo and Xu Yajun, who are best at interpreting leadership images, are also in the cast of this drama. Li Hongtao, who has appeared in dramas such as "Know or Not" and "White Deer Plain", also plays an important role in the drama.
Such a strong camp is one of the best among domestic workplace dramas.
Conclusion
It is undeniable that workplace dramas are not an easy genre to film.
Because this type of subject matter more tests the director, screenwriter, and actors’ understanding of the industry and characters. If you have no experience in the industry and do not do a lot of research and preparation before shooting, you will only be able to produce a suspended work.
Fortunately, "A Promising Future" depicts the financial industry, which is very close to most people's lives, so it is not a problem to make the film realistic and atmospheric.
Whether domestic workplace dramas can be proud of themselves in 2024 depends on "A Promising Future".
Do you think this drama can be a hit?
