On May 12, the TV series "Undercover Police Flower" premiered on Beijing Satellite TV. In terms of viewership data, the performance is very good. However, in terms of audience reputation, it is obviously very dangerous. In the Douban short review area, the audience reviews that this TV series has so far received are all one-star bad reviews. The fact that the audience gave one star uniformly is enough to prove a lot of things.
The ratings data of "Undercover Police Flower" is good and expected. I have explained my personal views in the article introducing the final file of this TV series, the theme of undercover anti-drug has its own conflict highlights, these conflicts are hard conflicts between anti-drug criminal investigators and drug dealers, even if the quality of the script is not high, it will still have good ratings. In the same way, if the anti-Japanese drama is on the star, it will still have good ratings.
This "Undercover Police Flower" directed by teacher Gao Yalin belongs to a work that is both outdated in script and shooting. The audience's one-star bad reviews are also based on this outdatement. If this TV series had been placed 15 or 20 years ago, it would still be remarkable. However, at the moment, the story has fallen behind, and the shooting technique and editing technique are both behind.
The backwardness in the story is visible to the naked eye. For example, in this kind of TV series, the protagonist must have his own halo, especially in disobeying the orders of the leader. In "Undercover Police Flower", the heroine went her own way as soon as she came up, and the leader asked her to take down, she just wanted to pursue the drug dealer alone, which caused the failure of the entire operation. This model of individual heroism is a common model for this type of film and television drama 20 years ago.
However, at present, the aesthetic level of the audience has improved, and this rotten mode cannot be used. Because the audience knows that in the work of real traffic police and anti-drug police, obeying orders is the first priority, and any comrade who does not obey orders, even if the level is high, is for nothing. Individual heroism cannot be shaped by disobeying the orders of the leadership.
Another example is a drug seizure, which violates common sense in drag racing. 20 years ago, in the filming of film and television dramas, the scenes of drag racing were not easy to shoot, so criminal investigation and anti-drug TV series, if you shoot the scenes of drag racing, you will definitely get a good reputation from the audience. However, the moment is different, the audience grew up watching "Fast and Furious", drag racing scenes, will feel, but so. At the same time, everyone began to demand the rationality of drag racing.
In "Undercover Police Flower", the drag racing competition between the heroine and the drug dealer is unreasonable. Even if the heroine does not know that the other party is a drug lord, but only believes that he ran a red light and violated the rules, she did not dare to directly chase on the road. Because there are many pedestrians and vehicles on the road, this drag racing chase mode will hurt the innocent. So, at the moment, we basically can't see who the traffic police are chasing. In order to show the heroine's personal heroism in "Undercover Police Flower", he also engaged in this play, which is a typical outdate.
Even, when our anti-drug criminal investigators eat, they all eat instant noodles, which is also an outdated creative method 20 years ago. This kind of scene, 20 years ago, the audience would feel that our anti-drug criminal investigators are really not easy, and they can't wait to send their onion noodles to comrades.
However, in the present, the audience will question the screenwriter and director, the motherland is so strong, it is not difficult for comrades to have a restaurant, sit down for four dishes and one soup, right? We normal people eat in the canteen, there are four dishes and one soup, it is not difficult. This kind of scene of eating instant noodles, why bother? Director Gao Yalin seems to have been away from the audience for too long, and this outdated bridge is still filmed as a treasure, which can only leave jokes for everyone.
What makes the audience feel most outdated is that the heroine has a mother who opposes her becoming a police officer. For 20 years, this kind of police family opposition to the work of the protagonist is really rotten street. In the two episodes of the premiere, the heroine's mother nagged countless times because of this matter, which can be said to be annoying to the audience. Does director Gao Yalin really not know that this script template is seriously outdated?
In addition to the script, in terms of filming, "Undercover Police Flower" is also relatively outdated. First of all, the director's ability to control the narrative line is very weak, and the later editing is not powerful. Secondly, the color grading of this TV series, the texture is not good, the appearance 10 years ago, can not keep up with the times. At the same time, the director is not strong enough in detail shooting, and many fancy shots look very showy, in fact, it can only be seen by knowledgeable drama fans, and the director's lens language ability is too poor.
Especially in some tense and exciting bridge shooting, the director's camera ability is stretched. Teacher Gao Yalin's lens language is not enough to make the audience nervous. And the heroine brought by Zou Yuanqing is also very different from the acting skills of his mother Yan Ni. Shouting and making a fuss is not to have acting skills, but to cover up his lack of confidence in acting skills.
If so, this "Undercover Police Flower" is outdated in many ways and is a mediocre work. (Text/Ma Qingyun)
