Starring Lin Feng and Zhou Xiuna, and starring Leung Jing-hui, Guo Zhenghong, Xiong Dailin, Wu Qihua, etc., the suspenseful criminal investigation drama "Black Gold Storm" has been broadcast to episode 6, which tells the story of Wei Jingsheng, senior inspector of the Hong Kong Serious Crimes Unit, and He Weilian, senior investigation director of the Hong Kong Independent Commission Against Corruption, who were repeatedly framed and hunted down by killers in the process of arresting the murderers, and finally found out the truth.
There is no doubt that the TV series "Black Gold Storm" has a strong flavor of The Hong Kong police drama of the 1990s, whether it is from the title, actors, storyline and character design. Although this drama is fried cold rice, compared with the old Hong Kong drama, it still has its own new taste, and it has won the likes of many "diners", and it has also aroused heated discussion among many viewers on social media.
The scale of Hong Kong police dramas in the 1990s was relatively large because of the pursuit of authenticity and watchability. Because in Hong Kong in that era, there was indeed a situation of "one phoenix on the first floor", and therefore, in police dramas, female police officers often disguised as little sisters and used fishing on the street to seduce criminals. Even female police flowers also pretended to be out-of-place practitioners and went deep into the tiger's den to "take risks" and so on. These more exaggerated contents, of course, are vulgar from today's point of view, but they do have gimmicks and can attract the audience to see.
In "Black Gold Storm", this bridge section obviously cannot be passed, which can only be verbally ridiculed by Feng Jie and pretending to be Feng Jie, and as a result, this scale convergence causes the audience to have a feeling of chewing wax when watching.
Another feature of Hong Kong dramas is that the case involves complexity and wide coverage, and "Black Gold Storm" is no exception. The first "storm" in the opening session was a big scene, involving the Major Crimes Unit, the Independent Commission Against Corruption, and many forces and scopes covering Hong Kong and Macao.
Street battles, gun battles, and pursuit battles are the standard of many old Hong Kong dramas. "Black Gold Storm" not only retains this when frying cold rice, but also upgrades it even more. However, the characters in the play shuttle between hong Kong public housing buildings, knocking on iron doors full of age, white sheets being dried on the roof, etc., so that people suddenly immerse themselves in the international metropolis of Hong Kong.
Although the scene of "Black Gold Storm" is grand and there are many characters, the cast is incomparably strong. The male protagonist Lin Feng, everyone is very familiar with, with "Looking for Qin", the recent starring "Star Sea" and "Yitian Slaughtering Dragon" are very popular works. In fact, in addition to Lin Feng's identity as an actor, he is also a singer, and he has won more honors as a singer than an actor.
In contrast, the heroine Zhou Xiuna is slightly inferior, and the "Absolute Double Glory" and "Journey to the West and The Demon" that she starred in are already film and television works from many years ago.
However, the strength of several supporting actors should not be underestimated. Male Er Liang Jinghui is very low-key, but his acting skills are very good, he is a very malleable actor, and he played a mild-mannered chemistry doctor Xu Sen in the hit drama "Heroes of the Flying Tiger", which is impressive. This time Liang Jinghui cooperated with Lin Feng, which is also the second time after "Acts of the Apostles". Li Zhijian, played by Liang Jinghui, is an ordinary detective, and when he first appeared, he helped Lin Feng break the siege, which really made people dream back to "Apostle Walker".
I think that in recent years, the new Hong Kong dramas have always been fried in the theme of criminal investigation and police bandits. Whether it is the plot or the characters, it is also repeated over and over again. Many times, the audience can basically guess the next action or the next line when they look at the previous shot. "Black Gold Storm" is also inseparable from this shackle, from the current point of view, although there are some new flavors of Hong Kong drama fried cold rice, but this is far from enough.
