In the first quarter of this year, the TV drama market can be described as a hundred flowers, much more lively than the movie market next door.
Science fiction, criminal investigation, suspense, idol, emotion, fairy tales and other themes have been launched, and many of them have achieved good results on their respective tracks.
Seeing that the major themes are "competing for glory" in the market, there is no spy war drama that is also known as one of the theme giants.
The spy war films that have recently left a deep impression in the minds of the audience are "Fengqi Longxi" broadcast on Yangba in April last year and "Opponent" starring Guo Jingfei and Tan Zhuo the year before last.
The former is set in the Three Kingdoms period, while the latter is a modern spy war drama, mainly focusing on national security officers.
Although the theme of these two dramas is spy war dramas, they are very different from the spy war dramas set in the war years in the traditional sense.
As a previous hot theme, there have been many excellent works such as "Lurking", "Before Dawn" and "The Pretender", I believe that many "spy war fans" are also very looking forward to this theme.
However, some time ago, there was indeed a small-cost spy war drama online, which is "Butterfly Shadow" starring Wei Daxun and Feng Yue.
Although there has been no spy war film online for a long time, which left enough freshness for the audience to a certain extent, "Butterfly Shadow" did not seize this opportunity.
First of all, the drama has a backlog of 8 years before it can be launched, and there must be some designs that lag behind modern aesthetics.
Secondly, the relevant settings of the play are not outstanding, not only the acting skills of some actors have been complained about, but some plots are also very shocking, so the natural reputation is not much better.
Fortunately, it has recently been reported that "Infernal" starring Jin Dong and Wang Likun will be broadcast on Jiangsu Satellite TV tonight, and it will be popular before it is broadcast.
Although this drama has not yet been officially broadcast, it is not small. Costing 300 million, it once appeared in the investment list of four satellite TVs, which can be described as a complete explosive product.
And from the current information about the show, there are indeed many points worth paying attention to in this drama.
The first is that the subject matter is attractive and the script is original.
The drama "Infernal" is set in the period of the Wang puppet regime.
It mainly tells the story of Agent Lu Feng, who completed many tasks in a battle of wits and courage with the enemy, won a turnaround for the final victory in the War of Resistance, and at the same time grew into a staunch communist.
When various literary adaptations are popular in the market, the drama "Infernal" has taken a different approach to using original scripts, which is actually a plus point.
What is even more surprising is that the director of the drama "Infernal" wears three roles in the play, he is not only the director, but also one of the screenwriters, and even made a cameo appearance in the play, leaving the audience with a lot of expectations.
At the same time, the drama "Infernal" also integrates various elements such as lurking, undercover, assassination, etc., and gathers many elements with a sense of novelty.
Judging from the trailer that has flowed out so far, this drama is indeed very eye-catching, in a short trailer, the audience can feel the sense of oppression and suffocation, the rhythm is very tight, it seems that the plot should be very exciting.
This time, Jin Dong no longer has the assistance of brothers who treat each other honestly, and some of them are suspicious and suspicious opponents by nature.
In this dangerous environment, how he will complete his tasks and missions, this series of plots is enough to attract many audiences to stop.
Therefore, in terms of plot, the drama "Infernal" has actually won a lot.
Secondly, the cast in the play is strong. When it comes to the cast, the first thing to say is definitely starring Jin Dong.
Jin Dong played the three-faced spy again after starring in "The Pretender", and this time he returned to the familiar No. 76.
It seems that Lu Feng is the most outstanding agent of No. 76, but in fact, his identity is impure, and his real identity is an undercover agent of the military commander.
It's just that in the process of performing the task later, he gradually discovered the true face of the military commander.
After experiencing the betrayal of his mentor and the killing of his relatives, he was already dissatisfied with the darkness and power struggle within the military system, and chose to abandon the secret and turn to our camp, successfully turned into a double-sided spy at two levels, and lurked within the military system as our party.
And although Jin Dong has dabbled in urban dramas and spy war dramas, what really makes him popular is spy war dramas.
In 2015, he won the love of countless audiences for his role in "The Pretender", not only that, but he also won the "Most Powerful Actor" award and was nominated for Best Actor in the 22nd Magnolia TV Series.
In Jin Dong's work resume, it can be found that he has participated in many spy war dramas, and his performance in the play has mostly been well received by the audience.
In recent years, Jin Dong has also starred in many urban emotional dramas, but the response is not as strong as spy war dramas.
On the whole, in today's words, Jin Dong can be said to be the "chosen spy fighter".
So this time, Jin Dong once again attacked with a spy war drama, and the drama has already made many viewers look forward to it before it has been officially broadcast.
In addition to Jin Dong, there is also the old face Wang Zhiwen in the main play. This time, Wang Zhiwen played the villain Mu Xihe in the play.
As a senior veteran actor, Wang Zhiwen's ability to carry dramas is undoubted. In "Wind and Rain Send Spring Home" broadcast in February, he also sat firmly in the chair of "acting responsibility".
In the case of a group of supporting actors' crotch pulling skills, Wang Zhiwen's performance has become one of the bright colors, portraying the honest and clean secretary of the discipline commission.
Similarly, he is also an old acquaintance in spy war dramas, and the undercover "postman" he played in the popular drama "Rebel" has also earned many tears from the audience.
This time, Wang Zhiwen once again challenged the villain role, I believe it will bring a bright performance to the audience.
And judging from the trailer, the appearance in just a few seconds has made people feel the coldness and fierceness of this character, and the aura is very powerful.
And Zhang Zhijian's joining is also very exciting, because of his previous outstanding performance in "In the Name of the People", he was also affectionately called "Secretary Yuliang" by the audience.
Zhang Zhijian also appeared in this year's popular "Crazy". Under his interpretation, Meng Dehai's complex character image was created very three-dimensionally, which was praised by many fans.
With his previous "record", Zhang Zhijian's acting skills have also been certified by the audience. Therefore, this time in "Infernal", the audience is also very relieved of him.
In the play, Zhang Zhijian plays Lu Feng's mentor, for Lu Feng, he is not only a mentor, but also a father.
However, in the process of working with the military commander, he gradually learned the darkness inside it, and it was the betrayal of his mentor that gave him the "fatal blow".
It can be seen from this that the career line and mentor-apprentice relationship between Shem Guan and Lu Feng are also very interesting.
The heroine of the play, Wang Likun, is known as the "Plain Goddess" in the entertainment industry, and her beauty is deeply recognized by everyone.
But Wang Likun is not a "vase" like existence, not only outstanding appearance, acting skills are not her shortcoming. In short, she can be said to be an actress with both appearance and strength.
In her early years, she successfully appeared in the circle with the role of "Shen'er" in "Beauty Heart Scheme", and later starred in various types of TV series.
In the period of endless spy war dramas, she also starred in many works, including "Mystery Case 1937", "Blue Blind Prison Break" and "Agent Five Group 2".
Therefore, starring in a spy war drama again this time should be hand-to-hand for Wang Likun. In the play, she plays the agent Hua Xiangyu.
In the trailer, she is an agent who stole intelligence neatly and calmly resolved the crisis, and she is also an ordinary person who will cry after being deceived by her beloved.
From the perspective of the cast, the drama "Infernal" can be regarded as a "king fried" combination, which has both pleasing looks and immersive acting skills.
In addition to the above two advantages, in fact, the production team of the drama "Infernal" is also very good.
Director of photography Dong Jinsong once directed the high-scoring film "Daylight Fireworks", and also won the Golden Horse Award for Best Cinematography with the movie "The Last Night on Earth".
Art director Shao Changyong should not be underestimated, as the director of the period drama "Great River", he won the Magnolia Award for Best Art with his solid professional skills.
And he also has a lot of relationship with "No. 76", and it turns out that the art director of "The Pretender" is also him.
Therefore, as the art director of "Infernal" this time, I believe that he must have a very large space to play.
There is also lighting director Mao Weiliang, who has also participated in the production of many popular movies.
From the perspective of the production team, the drama "Infernal" can be regarded as a collection of "great gods" in the industry, and with hardware cooperation, then the presentation effect of the entire drama will naturally not be bad.
Finally, it is worth mentioning that unlike most TV series with a three- or four-month production cycle on the market, the drama "Infernal" lasted seven and a half months from the start to the finale, and in order to ensure the quality, the crew traveled to many places, only for the real scene shooting to present a more realistic visual effect.
Just from the perspective of time spent, I believe that this drama must also have the excellence of "slow work and meticulous work".
For spy war dramas, if you want to shoot well, you need to work hard in all aspects, and it is certainly not easy to get out of the circle.
However, at present, whether from the perspective of the plot, the cast or the production team, the drama "Infernal" has the potential to be a big hit, as for the response, the market has its own feedback after the broadcast.
