On December 2, the TV series "Ebola Frontline" was updated in the Douban area to premiere time, December 8. This means that if there is no temporary airborne accident, the TV series will premiere on December 8 at the Beijing Satellite TV Quality Theater. Starring Luo Jin, Mao Xiaotong and other actors, the TV series tells the story of Chinese medical teams fighting the Ebola virus in Africa. Such a drama with its own quality is in line with the tone of Beijing Satellite TV, which is reassuring.
Beijing Satellite TV is broadcasting "Lady Hu Zhu", and the ratings on China's audiovisual big data are very embarrassing, which is a new low for Beijing Satellite TV's recent evening prime-time TV ratings record. Regarding the ratings of "Lady Hu Zhu", of course, there are reasons why the quality of the play itself is too low, but at the same time, there are also the established audiences of the Beijing Satellite TV Quality Theater, which is inconsistent with the temperament of this kind of costume idol drama. For Beijing Satellite TV, everyone still hopes that it can stick to its own quality, and things like costume idol dramas will be slowly broadcast on other platforms.
Obviously, the "Ebola Front" that takes over the baton will be a work that is very consistent with the temperament of Beijing Satellite TV. Earlier, CCTV had broadcast a similar theme of "The Boat of Peace", which was also the theme of international medical assistance and rescue, and won the ratings champion for many consecutive times in the list of China's audio-visual big data. Obviously, this kind of main theme and positive energy of international medical assistance can not only take into account positive values, but also have a need to see, which is prone to ratings explosions.
Ebola Frontline is very trustworthy in terms of writers, directors and cast, and so far. In terms of screenwriting, Douban introduced as follows:
Li Xiangmin, pen name NanKe. Male, Han ethnicity, born in September 1966, Jiangsu Jianhu people, scholar, playwright. Professor, doctoral supervisor. He is a member of the Chinese Writers Association and the Chinese Filmmakers Association. He is a member of the Jiangsu Provincial Federation of Literature and Art, the president of the Jiangsu Provincial Culture and Art Promotion Association, the vice president of the Jiangsu Radio and Television Film Association, and the executive director of the Tv Drama Screenwriting Working Committee of the China Radio and Television Association. Experts who enjoy special allowances from the State Council. In 2004, he was awarded the "Top Ten Outstanding Figures in China's Cultural Industry". He graduated from Fudan University in 1993 with a doctorate degree in economics. He is currently the chairman of Jiangsu Cultural Industry Group and the dean of the School of Cultural Industry of Nanjing University of the Arts.
The TV series that screenwriter Nanke is most popular with the audience is "The Great Qing Salt Merchant", which premiered in 2014, which starred Zhang Jiayi, Zhang Zhijian and others, and the Douban audience rating was 8.4 points. Based on the trailer content that has been exposed by "Ebola Frontline", the drama should maintain the previous creative level of Nanke's screenwriters, and the audience rating will be above 8 points.
Yang Wenjun, the director of "Ebola Frontline", also has many works. "Meritorious Service", "Together", "Farewell to the Clouds", are the recent works of participating directors, and the audience rating is above 8.5 points. The old director is good at mastering this kind of realistic theme of the work. "Ebola Frontline" can be assured in terms of directorial level. It is particularly noteworthy that this is not the first time that director Yang Wenjun has cooperated with actor Luo Jin, who has long cooperated with works such as "Crane and Huating".
Actor Luo Jin is obviously one of the important acting guarantees of "Ebola Frontline". I really think that Luo Jin's good performance began with the TV series "So Many Petite Rivers and Mountains" starring him. In this poverty alleviation drama, Luo Jin plays a young cadre. This character is given a more restrained force by Luo Jin. Obviously, this level of performance of Luo Jin is very suitable for positive energy film and television drama works. In "Ebola Frontline", as long as Luo Jin brings in the energy of "So Many Petite Rivers and Mountains", this drama cannot be wrong.
In terms of the heroine Mao Xiaotong, there are relatively few trailer content screens released so far. The young actor's performance in "Thirty Only" is still satisfactory. In "Ebola Frontline", Mao Xiaotong once again plays the female lead, and will shuttle between a group of male characters. It's very easy to shine. I don't know what the final quality of the show is, whether the heroine Mao Xiaotong can win the best actress award of any TV festival.
In terms of supporting actors, Xu Yajun, Liu Tianzuo, Ning Li, Wu You, etc., are also very worth looking forward to. At present, among the baton dramas of other brother satellite televisions, there is no similar theme. Obviously, "Ebola Frontline" has a relatively good ratings competitive advantage. Beijing Satellite TV has finally returned from works such as "Madame Hu Zhu" to plays such as "Ebola Frontline", which is in line with its own positioning of "quality theater". (Text/Ma Qingyun)
