Recently, the military drama "Special Combat Glory" starring Yang Yang and Li Yitong was broadcast, and as a result, because the role setting and plot were somewhat frivolous, many viewers did not have a good evaluation of this drama, and classic military dramas such as "Soldier Assault" and "I Am a Special Soldier" were frequently proposed.
In particular, "Soldier Assault", this part is not only the ceiling of domestic military dramas, but also has a far-reaching impact on the entire Chinese film and television circle. Wang Baoqiang, Zhang Yi, Duan Yihong and Chen Sicheng have all become important figures in Chinese entertainment.
Wang Baoqiang, Zhang Yi and Duan Yihong are representatives of Chinese actors belonging to three different ages, Duan Yihong is after 70, Zhang Yi is after 75, and this Wang Baoqiang is after 80. Chen Sicheng has not made much progress in actors, but in directors, especially producers. Although the audience has some controversy about his work, Chen Sicheng is indeed one of the representative figures of the current Chinese film and television circle actor transformation director and producer.
At present, only Xu Zheng, Wu Jing and Huang Bo are more similar, Wang Baoqiang, Deng Chao and Chen Sicheng have a gap.
Other actors Li Chen, Zhang Guoqiang, And Jian Jiadong are worse. Of course, here is still not to talk about the development of several major actors in this drama, or to talk about why "Soldier Assault" has such a great impact.
Why is "Soldier Assault" a domestic military drama "ceiling"? We can see it by looking at the identity of the actor
Now the audience talks about domestic military dramas and basically compares "Soldier Assault", and we all know that it is the ceiling of domestic military dramas, but many people do not know why it is a divine work. Of course, the TV series itself has a good production level, good acting skills of the actors, and then a good story plot.
In fact, there is a reason that the audience has subconsciously ignored, that is, the expression of film and television culture is linked to the values of the audience in the real environment, not to mention the military drama "Soldier Assault" that is almost parallel to the real world. Why is Soldier Assault classic? Because it basically reflects the rapid urbanization that began in China after 2000, the children in the countryside entering the military (without going to work and study), and the various roles of the common class in that era.
The simple and humble Xu Sanduo stumbled at first, but with a strong spirit and the spiritual beliefs of Chinese soldiers, he eventually became an excellent Chinese soldier. And Xu Sanduo's strength also affected many soldiers around them in reverse, and everyone grew up to be excellent Chinese soldiers together.
Soldier Assault was released in 2006, but the original novel was a little earlier. At the same time, we can also clearly see that the timeline in the TV series is almost parallel to reality, so it is almost what happened after 2000.
"Soldier Assault" can be said to be the best military work that reflects the Chinese class and the military spirit in that era. Many viewers will not be attracted to Sanduo when they watch "Soldier Assault" for the first time, because there are too many brilliant characters in it, but after watching it again and again, they find out how valuable it is for people of sanduo's quality. He said he only had this one road and had never seen any other way.
In the novel, Chengcai also says to Sanduo that you are actually the smartest person; the captain also says that life is meaningful to someone like you, and it will wait for you somewhere. Not to mention that in the whole play, there are so many distinct characters.
Many viewers actually hated Xu Sanduo at first, but the more they grew up, the more they would find that Xu Sanduo was an idealized person of ordinary children in that era.
Xu Sanduo enlisted in the army almost just reached adulthood, stunned, and remote mountainous areas, no culture and no knowledge, this kind of person is not to say that he will not work hard, but hard work does not know in which direction to work, just simply make efforts. But when a leader tells him what to do and what not to do, he will be able to remember and insist on doing meaningful things, which is better than many people.
Secondly, Xu Sanduo just entered the Seventh Steel Company, don't look at him dragging his feet, the other soldiers of the Seventh Steel Company were originally selected by excellent recruits, everyone has been training for so long, Xu Sanduo is from the physical training to rely on self-awareness, shooting training and other subjects are completely absent from the five classes transferred past, this span is quite large.
This coupled with a lot of personality, inferiority and discomfort are very normal. But Xu Sanduo is still trying to do something meaningful, rather than willing to fall, which is also more powerful than many people.
Finally, some people say that Xu Sanduo is Long Aotian, and this military career is all because of meeting nobles. In fact, it is quite the opposite. Xu Sanduo really did not have outstanding talents, all by his own efforts, even if he was confused, he did not waste time, there was really no element of dragon pride.
The kind of soldiers who have the talent and high tactical level of Chengcai are trained, and the soldiers with firm convictions are unattainable, and Xu Sanduo should not look at people in the world and cower, and it is not ambiguous to really do things, and the so-called "nobles" are willing to raise a lot of hands precisely because of this.
In addition, Xu Sanduo redeemed the fifth class to a certain extent, he insisted on the last honor of the Seventh Company, he let Gao Cheng understand what a real soldier was like, he became a real comrade-in-arms of Wu Liuyi, he captured Yuan Lang, he pulled Cheng Cai out of the darkness, Xu Sanduo was the noble man of these people.
Domestic military drama god work, 4 protagonists have become "shadow emperor", how much impact is "Soldier Assault"?
The drama "Soldier Assault" is indeed very special, it is not only a masterpiece of domestic military dramas, its influence is also very large. I personally think there are about three levels of this influence.
The first is the status of the domestic military drama itself, "Soldier Assault" was launched in 2005, and it has been 17 years so far. In the past 17 years, there have been countless domestic military dramas, but no other military dramas can reach its status. Of course, some viewers may want to say "My Regiment Leader My Regiment".
In fact, "The RegimentAllen" and "Bright Sword" are more of a war drama, and there is still a big difference between this kind of contemporary military drama.
This drama has become the peak of domestic military dramas, and since then other military dramas have followed suit, the equipment of special forces has become more fancy, the training has become more diverse, and the types of people involved have become more diverse. The protagonists of the current military dramas may be untamed, or they may be hanging children, but they will eventually strive to become the king of soldiers.
However, no protagonist can have the most primitive purity, persistence and persistence like Sanduo. There is also a theatrical theme of a special soldier carrying two guns to the enemy camp. But there is no longer the name of the special soldier: what wolf, what eagle, what tiger and what leopard, can be more classic and louder than old A.
Now the protagonists of military dramas, special soldiers, have begun to talk about love, and like to see those inseparable Qingqing and me under the national righteousness, but there is no longer any theme to develop with brotherhood and growth as the core. What's more, there is no mention of the concept of "survival" in the drama again.
These are the important reasons why "Soldier Assault" surpassed later domestic military dramas, because its core is the purest.
Second, this drama also has a huge influence on real audiences, let's not mention the impact on the participation rate of Chinese soldiers. This is almost the same as the impact of Tom Cruise's "Top Gun" on the U.S. Air Force's participation rate, how many people watched "Soldier Assault" before joining the army.
Since we talked about the impact on Chinese soldiers joining the army, this impact on the values of many young people at that time cannot be ignored. This drama is more like a life motto drama of a double male protagonist, two personalities, three completely different views of the transformation of people in the military camp, and finally achieved a soldier king, a gun king.
Just like Yuan Lang finally said to Chengcai: If this is your way, are you willing to come to Old A.
Everyone here was so alive that it touched many young Chinese people at that time. Let them see the meaning of life and life after the play, and what is the meaning of living. Xu Sanduo said that meaning is to live well. Yuan Lang said that it is never meaningful to say that what has not been done is meaningless.
The drama "Soldier Assault" has too many emotions, and the impact on the values of young people at that time is really too great, and it is really impossible to say a thousand words.
The third is the influence on Chinese artistic creation, which may be rarely noticed. But in fact, "Soldier Assault" and the historical drama "Daming Dynasty 1566", it has a high level of Chinese artistic expression.
I remember a film review about Jiang Wen's "One Step Away" that capital's film is to make people forget the anxiety brought by capital and immerse the audience in the movie, and "One Step Away" is to make the audience who should be immersed in the film feel anxious and detach from the movie.
This TV series is the same, mass entertainment is to forget the pain of reality, calm in a beautiful experience, and "Soldier Assault" Xu Sanduo's role, not to give people a very cool sense of experience, but a deep, long, painful feeling.
This Chen Sicheng's talent is the male protagonist of the standard "Dragon Auror" cool drama. Smart with its own buff, able to compete for the first place everywhere, sleek and flexible, very adaptable to this fast-paced, capital-controlled world.
In reality, Lan Xiaolong, Duan Yihong, and director Kang Honglei are people like Xu Sanduo, and Chen Sicheng, and many stars now are people like Chengcai. There are more and more such people as Chengcai, which can be seen from the current phenomenon of the entertainment industry, although there are also many films that are very beautiful in appearance, but many of our dramas and movies lack in-depth thinking.
4 "movie emperors" in 17 years, domestic military drama "ceiling"? Can we still make Soldier Assault?
Can we make the next Soldier Assault? The answer is that it is unlikely, and this has nothing to do with talent. It's not that there's no relationship, it's that they don't play a decisive role.
Because China's economy has been developing, the mainland film and television industry as a whole is also developing forward, but there are two things that have always been the shackles that cannot be broken through when Chinese culture develops. In the past, the artistic pursuit of the planned economy was pursued with scale, depth and breadth, but now the restrictions are too severe, and many divine scripts in the past may not pass the trial today.
The director, screenwriter and team of "Soldier Assault" are all remnants of this model, which originally led to the difficulty of the birth of works with artistic pursuits, which in turn was related to the rise of Internet capital after 2010 to seize the entertainment industry, and the complete pursuit of profits by Internet thinking, not to mention diluting the pursuit of art.
Even with the economic development of other developed countries, there is no pursuit of normal cultural industry construction. It is completely relying on big data, IP and traffic stars to cut leeks, and finally made the Chinese cultural industry what it is now. In this environment, even if there is such a director and screenwriter, it is difficult to make such a military drama.
Finally, it is recommended that you go to see the original novel of "Soldier Assault", many details are added particularly well, and the TV series version will be more complete, and you can't watch the same kind of drama combined to relive a different flavor.
In addition, the directors of "Soldier Assault" and "My Regiment Leader My Regiment" are Kang Honglei and the screenwriter is Lan Xiaolong; the latest TV series they cooperated with is "Winter and the Lion", which reflects the "War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea", or there are domestic war dramas worth looking forward to.
I hope that domestic film and television dramas are getting better and better, welcome everyone to pay attention to and discuss!
