If I were to say which subject matter among domestic dramas is most likely to be a hit, I think it must be criminal investigation dramas.
Since the explosion of "The Hidden Corner" in 2020, domestic criminal investigation dramas have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, and there are many excellent ones among them.
For example, "The Silent Truth" and " The Long Season ", both of which are well-known masterpieces.
The upcoming film list is also very surprising.
For example, "Above Dark Clouds" starring Sun Li and Luo Jin has great potential. You can tell by looking at the actors that this work is stable.
But besides this, there is another work that caught my attention. That is the criminal investigation suspense drama "The Beginning of People", performed on the same stage by Wang Jingchun , Zhang Ruoyun and directed by Li Lu.
It is reported online that the drama will be available to everyone in 2025 and will be broadcast exclusively on the Goose Factory network. The script of the drama is of high quality, the cast is strong, and the cast is full of big names. In my opinion, it is expected to hit the "ceiling" of criminal investigation dramas.
The entanglement of life experience leads to many mysteries
The play mainly tells the story of orphan Gao Feng (played by Zhang Ruoyun) who is obsessed with finding his biological parents. An unexpected car accident intertwined the fate of him and the rich girl Wu Feifei ( Ma Sichun).
This car accident implicated a skeleton that had been buried for many years, which was not only related to Gao Feng's life experience, but also concealed the secret that Wu Feifei's family was trying to hide.
In front of everyone, the lies were revealed one by one, and the truth came to light. How will the two young people break the situation?
In my opinion, this drama has two highlights that make it stand out among the criminal investigation dramas.
1 The complex relationship between human nature and characters
The trailer begins with Gao Feng’s inner monologue, “Where do I come from and where do I go?”, which reveals the mystery of Gao Feng’s life experience. This question also runs through the entire drama. .
"There are no absolute good and bad people in this world, only people who choose between good and evil all the time." This meaningful sentence also indicates the complexity of the character setting in this play.
Good and evil are like two ends of a scale. Everyone in the play is swinging on the edge of good and evil.
In the play, Gao Feng and Wu Feifei were on opposite sides. During the investigation, the case gradually deepened, and the two formed an alliance to help the police solve the case.
This also means that Wu Feifei is on the opposite side of her father Wu Guohao (played by Wang Jingchun). What discovery made Wu Feifei not hesitate to go against her father? How will the relationship between father and daughter change?
The relationship between the characters changes with the gradual revelation of the plot and the truth, which also makes us curious about the subsequent development.
2 A closely linked case
This drama describes an unsolved case that spans many years. Gao Feng has been obsessed with solving the mystery of his life experience.
A corpse that had been buried for many years connected him with the Wu family. What is the connection between Gao Feng's life experience and the Wu family?
What role does Wu Guohao, the head of the Wu family, play in this?
The trailer leaves a lot of room for the audience’s imagination. In addition to the known clues, it also makes us curious about what twists and turns the main film will have.
In addition to the plot, the team of the show also gave the audience reassurance.
This drama will be directed by director Li Lu himself. His previous films "In the Name of the People" and "Human World" are masterpieces and have won wide acclaim.
Moreover, director Li Lu is particularly good at insight into various problems in society. I believe that with his directing this drama, there is no need to worry about quality issues.
Screenwriter Chen Yu should not be underestimated. He has served as the screenwriter for three works directed by Zhang Yimou: "Manjianghong", "Sturdy as a Rock", and " Sniper". This made the audience's interest in "The Beginning of Man" The quality is full of expectations.
A good script and configuration are of course inseparable from a good actor's performance, and the starring role of this drama is also surprising.
The starring cast is full of big names, and all the actors have excellent acting skills
The actors of "The Beginning of Man" can be said to be fighting gods, and all the actors are talented, and they are sure to bring a visual feast to the audience.
ranked first, Wang Jingchun.
It goes without saying that the actor Wang Jingchun’s abilities are outstanding. He has contributed outstanding acting skills in "The Hidden Corner" and "Police Honor".
He plays the role of policeman Chen in the popular suspense drama "The Hidden Corner". His heartfelt warmth and compassion are moving.
In this drama, Wu Guohao, played by Wang Jingchun, seems to be a big villain. In the trailer, he faces the window and closes his eyes tightly. His expression is a little sad, and he seems to be calculating something.
It has to be said that in just one scene, Wu Guohao's role was established by him.
second place, Zhang Ruoyun.
In the new drama, he plays Gao Feng, who is troubled by his life experience and looks a bit withdrawn and indifferent. In the trailer of
, Gao Feng is dressed in black, with tears falling like broken beads, and the suppressed emotions seem to break through the screen.
This shows Zhang Ruoyun’s ability to control the character.
In addition, the heroine is played by Golden Horse Best Actress Ma Sichun, and the supporting roles include Tang Yan, who became popular through " Flowers ", and powerful actors Yang Jue and Sarina. This combination makes people call it a fairy line-up.
As long as they perform normally, there is basically no need to worry about the quality of "The Beginning of Man".
Conclusion
The biggest problem with current domestic suspense dramas is that there are many works, but the quality is uneven, and there are too few "out of the circle".
This is related to its high requirements on script quality and actor skills.
"The Beginning of Man" gave me new hope.
The plot of the drama is cleverly set, and the creative team and cast are even more powerful. It is expected to become another hit after "The Hidden Corner" and "The Long Season".
