Starring Huang Jingyu and Xiao Zhan, "Ace Troops" has not been launched for a long time, and this work that tells the 40-year history of the development of the Chinese army has always been highly anticipated by everyone.
This kind of documentary-style work can allow the audience to more intuitively see the various difficulties encountered in the development of the army, coupled with the strong cast of this play, it is expected to become the new king of the military theme.
However, before the drama "Ace Troops" was launched, the first thing to meet with the audience was "Ask the Sky", which tells the 30-year history of the development of the aerospace industry.
This drama in the CCTV broadcast after only 2 episodes of the ratings broke 1, in the early stage without too much publicity, can also get such a bright result, in addition to the "Fragrant Mountain Leaf Zhenghong" accumulated audience, but also with the high quality of the work itself has an inseparable relationship.
In recent years, the quality of the plays selected by CCTV has been more outstanding than one, and there are only a few aerospace-themed works, except for "Feitian" starring Li Youbin and "You Are My Glory" starring Yang Yang, few works have reproduced the development of the aerospace industry. This also makes this dark horse drama thrown out by CCTV make people stay up late and chase wildly, reluctant to fast forward.
Ling Xiaosu staged the "Thorn Head" college student, and the drama bone helped the team to watch
In the first two episodes of "Ask the Sky", the relationship between the main characters was clearly explained, and Ling Xiaosu played Fang Xiaotian originally dreamed of becoming a pilot, and he was also the first in the air force examination, but he was poached by the other party because he left a deep impression on the dean of the Aerospace Academy at the college student science and technology competition.
Ling Xiaosu's role as a college student in this drama is indeed a bit contrary, but this drama is spanning 30 years, and Ling Xiaosu will also play old in the follow-up. Because there is no deliberate emphasis on Ling Xiaosu playing a college student in the play, it is easy to ignore the point of playing tender. However, the appearance of tenderness does not affect Ling Xiaosu's interpretation, and this role is still full of substitution.
"Ask the Sky" explains Fang Xiaotian's personality clearly through a short scene, he argues with friends in the corridor and does not intend to participate in the finals of the science and technology competition, the reason is that his plan still has loopholes, if he uses such a plan to participate in the competition is foolish, it can be seen that Fang Xiaotian is a serious and very rigorous person.
However, the dean's radical method made him say his plan on the stage, and won a full house, and in the end, Fang Xiaotian did not choose to hide the fact that his plan was flawed for his honor, but announced his retirement. Scientific research work itself requires staff to strive for excellence, even a little flaw, can lead to the error of the general direction, Fang Xiaotian's rigor, just suitable for aerospace work.
Ling Xiaosu performed the strength of Fang Xiaotian,but at the same time, the audience saw his unruly side. His self-contained personality allows him to be firm in his thinking and more innovative, but he is also prone to conflict with the collective.
The acting skills of the actors also play a crucial role in this drama, and Zhong Xu, played by Shi Ke, is serious and upright, has excellent strength and technology, but also has an approachable side. The appearance that a scientific researcher should have can be reflected in Zhong Xu, played by Shi Ke.
Dean Gu, played by Hou Changrong in the play, has no leadership shelf at all, and the biggest trait in this character is that he loves talents and is willing to break the rules in order to leave talented people. Dean Gu, played by Hou Changrong, is full of affinity, he has the majesty of the leader as the dean, and he is not an authoritarian who engages in a big speech.
From failure to rise, review the development of the space industry
As a play about the development process of the aerospace industry, if "Ask the Sky" only presents the successful examples of the space industry to the audience, there will naturally be some dramatic conflicts, and the beginning of "Ask the Sky" throws out the process of the failure of the launch of the Changsan B rocket. Due to the lack of maturity of the technology and the higher difficulty of investigation, the reason for the failure of Changsan B has not been found.
The play first allows the audience to see the failure of the development of the aerospace industry, and truly reproduces the difficulties faced by the staff of the China Academy of Space Sciences at that time, they are not only under the pressure of public opinion, letters from all over the country and even around the world, some people accuse, some people talk on paper, but the spearhead is directed at the problem of the China Aerospace Research Institute.
The play does not shy away from these failures and controversies, but focuses on letters that criticize and make sense. These astronauts are under a lot more pressure than we think, and in addition to these denunciations, there are also commercial problems, such as receiving some orders after the successful launch of the satellite, because some of the orders were decided to terminate because of the rocket failure.
It is also under this obstacle that in just three months, they have to find problems and propose new solutions, and the pressure and challenge coexist. However, the development of China's aerospace industry is to learn from such failures, and gradually rise, only with today's Beidou global network coverage, the establishment of the Chinese space station and other space events success, such a transition is more real, more interesting.
