CCTV is currently the most popular influential platform in the star platform, and many film and television dramas are squeezing their heads to want to be on CCTV, after all, no matter how sluggish the ratings market is, the dramas broadcast on CCTV can basically stabilize the chassis of breaking 1. However, the dramas that can be broadcast on CCTV are often works starring powerful actors.
Like CCTV's word-of-mouth masterpieces "The Age of Awakening", "The World" and "The Daughter of the Mountain" in the past two years, they are all well-made works in themselves. So whenever CCTV has a new drama online, it will trigger onlookers inside and outside the circle, and this TV series "That Mountain and Sea" has only been launched, and the audience has already watched strongly, giving it the hat of a potential dark horse.
Judging from the effect of the premiere of "That Mountain and Sea", the style of this drama is a typical mainstream theme, and the story told revolves around innovation to get rid of poverty and get rich together, which is a very down-to-earth work. In the content of the premiere episode, "That Mountain and Sea" simply explained the background, introduced the characters, and successfully captured the attention of the audience.
The unexpected plots are one after another, and "That Mountain and That Sea" attracts people into the play at the beginning
In fact, most TV series want to grab the audience's attention to create contradictions, and the contradiction that appeared in the first episode of "That Mountain and That Sea" is the poverty of the Lei family.
There are four members of the Lei family, Lei's mother and her three sons. At the beginning of the plot, Boss Lei has reached the age to talk about marriage, he wants to marry Ju Xiang, but marrying his wife will require a bride price, and the Lei family is poor and counts on the family's cultivated cattle as a dowry book for Boss Lei and Ju Xiang.
But who would have thought that the sudden typhoon blew down the Lei family's cowshed, the family's cultivated cattle were crushed to death, and they couldn't get a cent of the bride price demanded by the Ju Xiang family. The eldest wants to get a wife, the third wants to go to school, and Lei's mother is in a dilemma, so she can only sacrifice Lei and the second.
It turned out that the owner of Meihuadu aquaculture, wanted to find a son-in-law for his daughter who was suffering from heart disease, and Lei Laoer, who was straightforward and manly, became the best candidate.
If Lei Laoer obeyed, the problems facing the Lei family now could be solved one by one, but Lei Laoer was stubborn, and he had to cut off his fingers to show his determination when he picked up a machete.
The matter of Lei Laoer has not been solved here, there is another problem in Ju Xiang's family, Ju Xiang's family thinks that the Lei family is poor and is unwilling to entrust Ju Xiang to the unpromising Boss Lei, Ju Xiang is aggrieved in her heart, and there is a conflict with the family.
In short, the content of the first episode of "That Mountain and That Sea", various natural disasters, and human contradictions came out one after another, successfully allowing the audience to enter the play and be firmly caught by the troubles of ordinary families in that era.
It is worth mentioning that in addition to being dramatic in the plot, "That Mountain and Sea" is more attentive in production. The wooden houses and earthen houses in the play show the feeling of the mountains. Like a large porcelain jar, a wooden table, and a yellowed newspaper on the pasted wall, they all show the delicate nature of this drama in terms of serving the Tao.
In short, even if you don't watch the plot, the audience can feel the poverty of backward production and living conditions here by relying on the scene in the lens.
The actor's acting skills are online, and Zhang Guangbei plays steadily
From the perspective of the cast, the most topical role in "That Mountain and Sea" is Principal Chen played by Zhang Guangbei, who was wearing a patched outfit when he appeared, and was discussing a way out of poverty with Uncle Youcai.
From the perspective of the scenes, Zhang Guangbei's sense of existence in the first episode is very weak, and there are not many scenes, but his acting skills are stable and the sense of substitution is very strong.
When mentioning that Zhaizi has been living on relief funds allocated by the government, he proposed that the relief funds be concentrated to develop planting and aquaculture.
This scene alone can be seen that although the character played by Zhang Guangbei lives in a poor place, he has ideas, culture, and also hopes that the village can take off the hat of a poor village and embark on the road to prosperity.
In general, "That Mountain and Sea" can be seen by more audiences, thanks to actor Zhang Guangbei's national name and his stable acting skills in the play. And besides him, every character in the play has outstanding flashes.
The Lei family's boss Lei has a feeling of honesty and cowardice all over his body. When he was bullied, he could also endure and push, and he had a strong contrast with Lei Laoer at home.
In the scene where Lei's mother persuaded Lei Laoer to be someone else's son-in-law, Elder Lei was half propped up on the bed, with tears in his eyes and a helpless expression full of humiliation. He hated himself for being incompetent and needing to sacrifice his brother to get married, but he could do nothing and could only accept his fate.
And Lei Laoer, who has a strong personality, is like a lit cannon battle throughout the whole process, with a strong temper and a loud voice. When Boss Lei was bullied, he still went up to punch the bad guys, which made the audience quite relieved.
It's just that such a hot-tempered person is destined not to accept the humiliation of being a son-in-law to others, and when he is furious at home, holding a knife and about to cut off his own fingers, the audience's hearts really tremble.
As for the youngest Lei Laosan in the family, he is still a child who has not grown up. Although he was also dressed in shabby clothes when he appeared, his face was immature, and he still had a milky voice when he spoke, which was more like a little girl than the rough Lei Laoer.
In terms of character setting, the three children of the Lei family with completely different personalities are the highlights of the first episode. And the actors in the play have a good grasp of the character's personality, performed the essence of the character, and also collided with a different kind of spark.
Nowadays, the audience is curious about the marriage of Lei Laoer's son-in-law, and is concerned about whether Boss Lei, as a poor boy, can marry Ju Xiang, and whether Lei Laosan can go to school as he wishes and change his fate by relying on knowledge. At present, it seems that the three children of the Lei family are also the key people to let the poor village find an innovative way out of poverty.
It's a pity that "That Mountain and Sea" has only been online for a short episode, and the audience is already impatiently curious about the direction of the story after that.
Of course, the quality of a drama will not be seen until at least a third of the plot is completed. The first episode of "That Mountain and Sea " gave the audience a general understanding of the background of the story, and saw the detailed costume setting and the cast of all acting schools. But then again, it is indeed unreasonable that the three brothers of the Lei family in "That Mountain and Sea" can be poor to this point.
Although the village is poor, the Lei family has three big men with strong hands and feet, and no matter what, they will not become the focus of ridicule, suppression, and belittlement.
In the subsequent plot, "That Mountain and Sea" has to justify itself and explain the specific reason why the Lei family is so poor.
Finally, I also hope that "That Mountain and Sea" will maintain its current texture in the subsequent plot content, and also thank CCTV and Zhang Guangbei for bringing another potential dark horse, so that the audience can't stop watching one episode.
