Criminal investigation dramas should be the most popular type in the domestic drama market.

"White Night" starring Pan Yueming has both popularity and reputation. After many years, the audience is still urging for the second part.

And " The Long Season " even achieved a high score of 9.4 on Douban, and its reputation is overwhelming.

However, this year’s criminal investigation dramas fell far short of the audience’s expectations.

's high-profile "The Boy Who Can't See a Shadow" and " Misplaced " were huge disappointments. Even with the addition of powerful acting skills, they could not save their ratings.

Isn’t it possible to see a decent criminal investigation drama this year?

Of course not, Goose Factory took action and came up with "The Truth Behind and ".

has only aired 8 episodes, and it has directly scored an 8.5 rating . This shows that it is a hit.

This drama has a clear plot line, rigorous logic, and a depressing atmosphere. Fans of criminal investigation dramas really have something good to watch this time.

01 The plot is brain-burning and confusing

"Behind the Truth" tells the story of detective Anping (played by Han Dong) and colleague Shang Jie (played by Qu Jingjing) investigating a bizarre death case, and unexpectedly discovered that this case was connected to a murder case many years ago. Together.

With their persistence, this mysterious case was solved, and the truth of the old case also came to light.

Some people may say that this is still the old routine of linking new cases to old cases, so there is nothing interesting about it.

But in this drama, it is really different. It only used two tricks in the drama to pique my curiosity.

The first trick: the case is bizarre and strange.

A shocking case is often the best way to quickly draw people into the atmosphere of the plot.

So the opening of this drama is the scene of the crime. The "woman" in the red dress appears, the man suffocates to death with a look of horror on his face, and the body is suspended in the air and then falls.

Coincidentally, the secretary of the victim Guan Jingtang was also killed a few days ago. What the two cases have in common is the "woman" in the red dress and the Hibiscus flower painted on the scene.

Some people took a breath when they saw this. This "ritualistic" method of committing crimes seems to indicate that this serial murder case is not over yet. People who are closely related to Guan Jingtang may be next. victim.

The plot only depicts the scene of a case, but uses many hints of clues to pave the way for a suspenseful and weird atmosphere. No matter who is in the perspective of the play, it will feel creepy.

The second trick: The reasoning is rigorous and logical.

The biggest feature of this drama is that it uses the idea of ​​​​classic criminal investigation dramas along the plot, that is, the audience follows the police's perspective to witness and participate in the reasoning of the case, which requires extraordinary plot logic.

The death case surrounding Guan Jingtang in the play points to his current wife and stepson, the children left by his ex-wife, the nanny and the nanny's son.

What really caused a stir was that the three million that Guan Jingtang took out during his lifetime disappeared.

The performance of these suspects is difficult to distinguish between true and false. They have their own agendas and test each other, making the plot more complicated and confusing.

And Anping monk Shang Jie has to dig through such complicated clues to find the clue leading to the truth.

So the bizarre cases are just appetizers, the real meal is the show's solving process.

It can be said that this drama takes the plot development of classic criminal investigation dramas to the extreme, perfectly combining bizarre cases with rigorous logical processing. Such brain-burning criminal investigation dramas are too rare.

02 Han Dong leads the cast, and the cast is strong.

The solid foundation of the plot has been laid. Next, it depends on the performance of the actors. Judging from the plots of the previous episodes, the actors who appeared in the drama all performed very well.

First of all, Han Dong.

When it comes to Han Dong, the first thing that the audience may think of is Jiu Age in "Bu Bu Jing Xin".

As for Han Dong's most impressive role in recent years, it has to be the villain, such as Yan Shifan in " Under the Golden Clothes " and Da Siming in " Jade Bones ".

However, in the new drama, Anping, played by Han Dong, is a thoughtful and experienced veteran detective.

In the play, Anping squats in front of his master's tombstone. The old case is still unsolved, and his eyes are full of regret and nostalgia.

But when he faced the suspect, he fully maintained the qualities he should have as a criminal police officer. He stared at the suspect closely, observed the expression and movements, and did not miss any details of words and demeanor.

With Han Dong's acting skills, he can control both the decent and the villain.

ranked second, Chen Sisi. The name

may sound a bit unfamiliar to the audience. In other words, the audience must know Cao Guiren in "The Legend of Zhen Huan".

The fact that she can make this character so memorable is a testament to her acting skills. In

's new drama, she plays the role of Zhang Limei, the nanny of the Guan family.

In the play, she was brought back for questioning by the police, and she looked nervous. When talking about her experience in the Guan family, she could look up and look directly at the police, and her tone was somewhat sincere.

But when it came to herself, she lowered her head and did not dare to look directly at the other person.

Zhang Limei’s facial expression seemed to imply that her words were half-truth and half-false, and there was a secret behind them.

Chen Sisi grasped Zhang Limei's psychology just right.

ranked third, Zhang Haoran.

In " Anti-Crime Storm ", Zhang Haoran played He Yong's informant Xing Fei. Although there were not many scenes, he still left a deep impression on the audience.

In the new drama, Zhang Haoran plays Guan Hongjian, the son of the victim.

His behavior in the play was very abnormal. When he learned the news of his father's death, he did not show any sadness. When he looked at the corpse, there seemed to be some disgust on his expression, and he was even impatient to ask questions.

This character is very scheming and may be reversed in subsequent plots. Zhang Haoran’s performance in subsequent dramas is worth looking forward to.

is ranked fourth, Qu Jingjing.

Qu Jingjing played Zhou Qian, a medical soldier of the rescue team in the movie " The Wandering Earth ". The audience must still have some impressions. In

's new drama, she plays the heroine Shang Jie, the daughter of Master Anping.

In the play, she watched a video of burying people alive with suitcases, her brows furrowed tighter and tighter, her hands clenched tightly, and her eyes were filled with pain and unbearability.

And she was transferred to Anping probably to find out the cause of her father's death.

Qu Jingjing’s heroic appearance makes her perfect for playing roles such as a policewoman.

In addition, there are also actors such as Yi Daqian , Alia, and Zhou Haodong in the play. Although there are almost no popular actors in the play, the acting skills they displayed in the play are obvious to the audience and they are quite capable.

03 Conclusion

The main creative team of this drama is the production team of the popular online drama "Mao Liar", which has accumulated a good reputation, and this "Behind the Truth" did not disappoint the audience. As a criminal investigation drama,

has the right rhythm of the plot. There are many clues but it does not appear complicated. Every development thread in the drama is clearly arranged.

And this drama does not add suspense for the sake of suspense, and forcibly adds some unclear plots. Every scene related to the case in the drama has a cause and effect.

At the same time, some blank spaces in the plot also leave enough space for the audience's imagination, making the audience more immersed and involved in the plot.

So no matter which angle you look at it, this drama is undoubtedly a conscientious criminal investigation drama.

believes that the follow-up plot will be fully unfolded, and the popularity and reputation of this drama will be further enhanced.
