What if you get on the "Beginning" car and don't want to get down?
Friends who chased 10 episodes last night for the first time raised their hands in the comment area!!!
Last weekend to see, directly equalized, the next day with my friend two brush I feel like I have a disease! This disease is called ""Beginning" drama chasing syndrome", probably with diseases such as -
1. After watching it yourself, you still have to press the head to chase amway around friends - did you watch "The Beginning"? Huge looks! Not yet? Go and show me! I must not be allowed to get on the car alone and enter the loop, but to cycle everyone together!
2. Originally I only wanted to click to watch two episodes, one accidentally got on the head, 8 episodes after watching it is already the second half of the night, ah! My dark circles!
It is rare to have pity with the "come total" that cannot be stopped in 8 episodes in one breath
3. There is no update of the day looking forward to the update, the daily chanting Tencent video fast plus more, wait until the male protagonist Bai Jingting smoothly urged more success, and began to suffer from gain and loss, Ma Ya, Tuesday 2 episodes Wednesday 3 episodes, next week again 2 episodes, "beginning" that is, "end", the car has not been addicted, on the end of the station, this is a swollen fat thing?
4. Daily Q: Did "The Beginning" explode? Is Bai Jingting and Zhao Jinmai on fire? The sequelae of fanatical love for a drama is probably death, empathy for actors, becoming a career batch, and frantically paying attention to whether the popularity of this drama is worthy of it...
Brush the rating every day, bullish or not
5. Seeing that there is a question about this questioning that in order to show the sense of superiority, the confused speech of closing the eyes and black eyes, I am too lazy to argue with him, throwing up a Du Bureau special emoji, super easy to use!
To be mild, I will use Officer Zhang's connotation ↓
……
After summarizing the above symptoms, I feel that I am already a little sick.
Sigh again, good drama really has the vitality of natural growth, as long as someone is willing to sincerely sow a seed, in the soil of the Internet it can take root and thrive on its own, and the love of drama fans for it is the best nourishment.
The scribblers have also been frantically producing lately
Well, the end of the passionate speech, the following serious Amway, the content will have slight spoilers, mind those please do not draw down, go directly to the show.

Stimulation: Bai Jingting asked you to get in the car? High concept: "Anti-bombing CP" staged bus high-energy werewolf killing
The freshness of "Beginning" first comes from the concept of "time loop" that has rarely been touched by previous national dramas, and this time the gold medal production team boldly shot at noon and adapted the novel of the same name by Pray Junda, which is a brave taste.
The setting basically follows the original book.
Both male and female protagonists are naturally chosen
College student Li Shiqing (Zhao Jinmai) sits on a "death bus", the bus will have an accident in the middle for various reasons, and Li Shiqing and other passengers on the bus will die together.
But the dead Li Shiqing will soon be resurrected in the car, and then blown up, and resurrected again... Dead and alive, alive and dead, cycle after cycle.
A moment ago, I was dead
The next moment, I lived
The first variable in the desperate situation is Xiao Heyun (Bai Jingting), a spectacled brother sitting next to Li Shiqing.
In order to avoid the fate of being killed again, Li Shi was in a hurry, married the little brother for sexual harassment, and made a fuss to catch the sex wolf to go to the police station, so that the two could get off the car in advance.
I thought I could get away with it.
I didn't expect that getting out of the car was not an inevitable condition for jumping out of the loop.
The bus with two fewer passengers had another accident, Li Shiqing woke up from the car again, and the serendipity she got in misfortune was that the little brother also entered the loop with the memory of being killed.
After several grinding, the "anti-bombing duo" finally formed a team successfully.
The brother's profession is a game architect, the setting of this kind of time loop is relatively clear, after accumulating several times of experience in the dead and alive, he quickly helped Li Shiqing to clear the timeline, and found a secret law in the previous time loop: each time they enter the loop, the two will wake up one minute earlier than the last time.
And this little more time will also help them get more clues in the new loop, unlock more event puzzles, and finally lead the audience to spell out the whole picture and understand the truth together.
Why does something happen to the bus? Why does the car still explode after obviously preventing the traffic accident? Does the explosion of the car mean that someone in the car has a bomb? So who is this person? How to find out to stop the explosion? Does the success of the anti-bombing to save the whole car also mean that the cycle will be completely lifted? Can the male and female protagonists finally succeed in getting out of the loop...
As the story unfolds, one question after another is thrown to the audience, so that the audience and the male and female protagonists can harvest the excitement and joy of guessing and solving puzzles.
In particular, the highlight of guessing the werewolf section is completely a video version of the werewolf killing.
The male and female protagonists are equivalent to the prophets, and after realizing that there are werewolves in the car, they check one by one to focus on suspects.
As soon as he got on the bus, the bus driver who was issued a good guy card by the naïve heroine, well, in the latest episode of last night's update, has exposed the hidden identity.
The heroine collapsed and ran away, as if a large idol collapsed the scene
And a few passengers who look particularly like werewolves, the director of an episode of a focus, with a large number of flashback crossover narratives, to unlock their respective stories, but also constitute another major highlight of the show - those struggling in the whirlpool of life of the various small people, each has their own life dilemma and personality fate, because of the encounter, the situation is different, but also determines that they will make a variety of different reactions and choices when the anti-bomb CP is in trouble for help.
This practice of digging deep into the side characters is also a narrative ambition.
The main creative team did not stay at the level of game design that hastily set up NPCs, but tried to give each little person enough space to dig deeper into the humanity behind different people's hearts, and the audiences of different groups of people will also gain their own empathy in the life stories of different passengers.
In addition to the bus, there is also a police branch line headed by Zhang Cheng (Liu Yijun) and Du Ju (Liu Tao).
Li Shiqing and Xiao Heyun will get off the car in advance to seek police help many times in the cycle, and the spark of interaction between Officer Zhang, played by Liu Yijun, and the interaction between the two young people is their favorite place.
Although Officer Zhang does not move much, most of the time he is amiable, but He Chao will act with his eyes.
And the heroine met for the first time in the fifth cycle, while softly persuading the heroine, said, although you said, I have been a policeman for more than twenty years, I have seen everything, you don't need to have scruples, you can say a little more.
As a result, the heroine told an experience that was more outrageous than the "ghost story", and our officer Zhang was calm on the surface, and his eyes were gradually filled with great unconfidence.
From touching his lips to hide his shock, to deciding to take out his mobile phone to record, the bullet screen is laughing: he panicked, Flag stood early, twenty years of police career tragic waterloo, or less knowledge.
When the heroine finished talking about her fifth cycle, Officer Zhang was almost frozen.
The mind has probably been fighting with heaven and man, obviously the heroine's ghost words are completely supernatural, but the details of many accidents really should not be known to a person who got off the car in advance, and her ghost words seem to be a little true...
To believe or not to believe? So embarrassing!
In the end, I still couldn't help asking the heroine, did you have this symptom before or did you have it today?
In fact, as a person who has personally experienced it, who encounters such a thing that deviates from the spectrum does not have self-doubt, and the heroine also feels that she is going crazy.
"Shall I check [my brain] again?"
Innocent and aggrieved, funny and pitiful.
It is also the spark of the real reaction of normal people in this abnormal story that makes the whole drama full of all kinds of hooks that attract people to watch.
Officer Zhang and Li Shiqing met and exchanged for the second time, in the ninth cycle.
After Li Shiqing got out of the car, she called the police to report that there was a bomb on the car, hoping to use the power of the police to stop the explosion. The anti-bombing duo was also invited to the bureau as a suspect for questioning.
In Officer Zhang's world, he and Li Shiqing never knew each other before, but Li could call out his name ↓
He also knows the little secret that his right hand can't exert force— echoing the details of the fifth cycle, when Officer Zhang helped Li Shiqing screw the mineral water bottle unscrewed. Officer Zhang was once again caught in a battle between heaven and man, and Sanguan suffered a strong impact and was carried away by the story told by the heroine.
The audience also knows that they are watching a very serious interrogation, but they are still creaked by the strong contrast between the two. One dared to speak, the other did not dare to believe, and pretended to calmly tear his soul, half choosing to believe and half could not help but question.
Officer Zhang, as the most serious and cute NPC in the time loop world, is really "difficult".
Why would a policeman who is so sharp, professional and patient suffer from this inhuman soul tearing and faith test again and again?

Good love: Those who are willing to try again for others
Under the high-energy story setting, the reason why the drama does not levitate and has a strong sense of substitution lies precisely in the laying out of these details and the real texture of the characters.
The setting is fake, but the reactions of each character are real and vivid, delicate and realistic, empathetic and immersive.
For example, male and female protagonists.
The appearance is unremarkable, a college student, a game designer, is not a high-energy character.
Xiao Heyun has a weak fighting ability, and his personality is not a great and righteous character, at first he will selfishly think that he got off the car and escaped a disaster, and later under the impetus of the heroine, he also recognized the reality and really threw himself into the mission of cracking the cycle, when the two people were hunted down and killed by werewolves, isolated and helpless, they would self-doubt the necessity of saving people - are they worth it?
All his psychological changes, real, delicate, and unpretentious, will make people think that the little brother is the other me.
Li Shiqing's bravery was not something she had at the beginning, and her belief in being willing to "try again" for the people on the rescue car was added little by little by the kindness from around her in many cycles.
Dragging the male owner out of the car is because among the passengers, only he asked the driver to stop when she pretended to have a heart attack, and wanted to call her 120;
She wanted to save the driver because she was stolen from the car many years ago, and it was the driver who helped her find it;
There are also "medicine women" who are enthusiastic about feeding her quick-acting heart-saving pills, Ma Guoqiang, who simply took out watermelon to eat for her, and Jiao Xiangrong, who handed her sanitary napkins... These various passengers, those who only dare to shrink to the side and watch from the wall when the anti-bombING CP goes out to save people, may not be brave enough, but it does not mean that they do not have the right to survive.
Indifference, cowardice, wait-and-see, cringe, fear... Behind these reactions is the real human nature, which is also related to the passengers' respective life circumstances.
Cowering like Ma Guoqiang, shortly after his release from prison, his wife and daughters scattered, thousands of miles away carrying a bag of watermelons he planted himself, sent to his son who had not been seen for many years to eat, the last want to cause trouble, the most afraid of trouble is him, how can he still ask such a person, the first time without any worries to go to help others?
Humble as Jiao Xiangrong, debt-ridden, no work, just driven out of the garage, full of anxiety that the daughter will abandon school to work, just to live is already exhausted people, have the heart to help but also stagnant, the latest cycle promised to help the two people of the motivation is to see the bonus of righteousness and courage - for 20,000 yuan can not die, who will not feel sad for such a father?
There is also the cutest middle school teenager Ludi ↓
As the only person outside the duo who believes in the cycle, in many cycles, unknowingly, he is sluggish in the face of a sudden murder, but in the latest episode, when the male protagonist reported the secret code, his courage was immediately stimulated, sacrificing himself to grab the pot and hold the bomb, without blinking.
Aaaah! How many of the two souls in front of the screen were ignited by this teenager!
Only the lovely second dimension will not hesitate to believe that he was chosen by the Light, the one who saved the world!
Every little person in this story will not let people want to criticize their choices, human nature itself has many faces, good and evil are integrated, those who will be timid and weak in the first reaction to choose to protect themselves, those who cannot stand up for others and cannot be heroes of others, not a guilty snowflake, just an ordinary and ordinary person.
And there is always no shortage of lovely teenagers who are nourished by good intentions, who have not yet been tempered by life, who are willing to believe that they can save the world, and who are willing to try again for others.
Lou Cat's Apostle, Asthma Terminator, The Chosen Man of Light, Flute, and the waving action when saying goodbye to the male and female protagonists are also very two-dimensional

Tribute: Those who still choose to be kind in the face of difficult circumstances
I can't tell whether the coolness of the game of circular tasks is more boiling, or whether these real and cute people make people hot.
The addictive place of "Beginning" is actually very comprehensive, the skeleton is novel and flesh-and-blood, and the narrative labyrinth of high concepts is supported by the texture of realism, so that the novel narrative brings the audience fun to solve the puzzle, and at the same time, the real characters and emotions touch the audience's heart.
To some extent, when Jiao Xiangrong overheard that the heroine did not bring sanitary napkins, took the initiative to open the suitcase, took out the bag of sanitary napkins from the layers of clothes and handed them over, and Tao Yinghong's fierce eyes when she first pulled the pressure cooker to detonate the bomb, they were all unexpected, but the stark hedge between good and evil was as powerful as the shock to people's hearts.
People like Jiao Xiangrong, who remain kind in times of difficulties, and who have expended all their energy just to survive, are the majority of people around us.
Because of the plot setting, the episode is short, and the fermentation time will not be too long, but I really hope that such a high-quality drama can completely break the circle in a short period of time and bring an exciting start to the national drama market in 2022!
