The hit "Back Wave", I didn't expect the word-of-mouth polarization.
Although the ratings are rising, the audience's evaluation of the show is not satisfactory.
"The character setting is suspended", "The plot is unrealistic", "Three views are shattered".....
Even some viewers directly shouted, asking "Back Wave" to be removed from the shelves quickly.
In this regard, Seventh Brother, I don't want to comment too much.
However, just when "Back Wave" was full of controversy, another medical-themed TV series was about to start.
CCTV personally pushed and sent 5 news in a row to promote it, such a big formation, how big is this drama?
"White Castle" is adapted from Wang Chenggang's novel of the same name, telling the perseverance of four doctors with very different personalities.
Different from the TCM inheritance class of "Back Wave", "White Castle" focuses on the emergency room.
For this type of TV series, the audience is most afraid of being too professional or unprofessional.
First, being too professional is easy for the audience to be confused and unable to find resonance with the characters and the story.
Second, unprofessionalism will make the story out of touch with reality, and people will directly want to abandon the drama.
Fortunately, Wang Chenggang, the original author of "White Castle", is a doctor of Peking University School of Medicine.
After graduating, he successfully entered a hospital and became the deputy chief doctor of the emergency rescue center.
The stories and cases in the novel are all his personal experiences.
So, the quality of the episodes is absolutely guaranteed.
First, the story
It is precisely because the stories in "White Castle" are basically Wang Chenggang's personal experience.
So in the play, the audience can witness the growth and what an emergency department doctor sees.
On the eve of graduation, Wang Yangming (played by Peng Guanying) had a disagreement with his supervisor in medical experiments, and resolutely decided to shift from scientific research to clinical.
Soon, with his own advantages, he successfully joined the emergency department of Ruiren Hospital, which ranked first in cardiovascular disease.
Wang Yangming, who has just arrived at the hospital to work, is full of curiosity about everything here, and is full of confidence to realize his ideal of treating patients and saving people.
Despite his rich theoretical knowledge, he had zero practical experience.
So, mistakes can't be avoided.
In the trailer, Wang Yangming, who has no experience, first cuts the patient's trachea, and then dissolves the thrombus without the consent of the family.
It is undeniable that Wang Yangming's original intention is good, and he is bent on saving people.
But he forgot that he was still an intern.
In this regard, Wang Yangming also fell into deep self-blame and began to wonder whether the original choice was right.
However, thanks to his good "teacher" and a group of colleagues who encouraged him and helped him, Wang Yangming regained his confidence.
In the end, Wang Yangming, together with the fat Louis, Zu Wenda and Liu Fei, formed the "four masters of the emergency department" who shared hardships.
The four witnessed each other's growth and transformation, and gained the most precious friendship.
From their bodies, we can see the original intention of being a doctor: where there are the most critical patients, they will appear!
In addition to focusing on the emergency room, "White Castle" also focuses on the hot topic of doctor-patient relationship.
For example, the patient's life hangs in the balance, there is still a glimmer of hope, but the family chooses to give up, as a doctor, can you save?
For example, if the patient urgently needs surgery, if he does not do it, he will die, but his family refuses to take the money, should you be saved as a doctor?
Behind this is not only to show the cruel reality of death, but also to explore the warmth of the world.
2. Actors
After taking a look at the cast list, I was instantly attracted to this show.
There are young actors such as Peng Guanying, Gai Yuexi, Gao Xin, Huang Xiaolei, and powerful people like Zhang Zhijian, Chen Shu, Zhang Chenguang, and Tu Songyan.
To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that there were so many treasure actors hidden in "White Fortress", this show might have been buried like this.
The first one: Zhang Zhijian
Over the years, Zhang Zhijian is undoubtedly the most popular old drama bone, and he can be seen in many TV series one after another.
Although the reputation of "Infernal" not long ago was not very good, Zhang Zhijian's acting skills have been recognized by countless audiences.
In "White Castle", Liu Binhe, played by Zhang Zhijian, is the attending doctor of the emergency department.
As soon as he appeared, he brought a calm aura, and the movements and demeanor of the operation were battle-hardened at a glance.
In the trailer, in the face of the patient's demands, he always adheres to the position of "life first" and does not miss any hope.
Second place: Tu Songyan
As a national first-class actor, Tu Songyan's acting skills naturally need not be said.
From "Double Sided Tape" to "Life in Two Cities" to "Snowflake That Floats", no matter what role or what kind of scene, he can successfully control it.
From good guys to bad guys, from modern dramas to period dramas, the unique Tu Songyan has interpreted his own style.
In the play, Louis, played by Tu Songyan, is an experienced doctor and Wang Yangming's master.
In the trailer, only 1 and a half minutes, Tu Songyan bears all the laughs.
In front of the boss, the nest should be nested, and in front of the apprentice, it should be serious.
And whenever he is reprimanded, his obedient and cute image is exaggerated and funny.
However, once put on the white coat, Louis gives a sense of reliability.
During an operation, Wang Yangming made a serious mistake and was banned from the operating table by the leadership.
Fortunately, there is a master like Louis, and finally relying on his efforts, Wang Yangming has a chance to return to the emergency room.
Third place: Chen Shu
In my opinion, Chen Shu is a rare actress in the entertainment industry who can change styles.
Not only can he control the heartthrob of all kinds of styles in "New on the Beach", but also can perform the intellectual and elegant side in "Love in the City", and can also play the heroine of the female hero full of bandit spirit in "Iron Pear Flower".
This time, Guan Ling, a doctor played by Chen Shu, does not speak angrily and has strong professional skills.
As soon as she appeared, she calmed the young doctor in front of her.
Fourth place: Huang Xiaolei
In terms of appearance and figure, Huang Xiaolei is not at all inferior to some popular actresses.
Although she is known and loved by everyone for her role as the "silly aunt" in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", Huang Xiaolei has always been a popular person.
For example, her role as Qiao Chunyan in "The World" impressed the audience, but it is a pity that the fire of "The World" did not bring much change to her career.
In "White Castle", Huang Xiaolei's appearance is very eye-catching.
sometimes long hair shawl, flaming red lips; Sometimes it is coiled into a ball head, pure and cute.
Fifth place: Gao Xin
Su Mingzhe in "It's Good" and Qin Feng in "Special Combat Glory" are completely two characters with great contrast, but they are easily controlled by Gao Xin.
And in "White Castle", he played the doctor Zu Wenda, whose personality is somewhere in between.
Faced with the fleeing patient who did not want to be treated, he rushed out and threw the other party to the ground, and in the face of the injured who was no longer breathing, he was so busy that he sweated profusely and never gave up until the last moment.
In just two scenes, it can be seen that the character of Zu Wenda is flesh and blood.
In addition to the above 5 actors, there are also old drama bones Zhang Chenguang, as well as familiar faces such as Sun Hao, Li Qian, Sun Zhihong, Yu Mingjia and other familiar faces from the audience.
With this group of actors coming together, "White Castle" must be a real show.
Third, write at the end
In fact, there are no less than 5 TV series focusing on the emergency room, such as "Emergency Room Story".
As a layman, it is absolutely impossible to really understand the professional knowledge about medicine in this drama.
But "White Castle" isn't just about a doctor's growth.
But in the work of emergency department after emergency, there are some thoughts about life, ideals and life.
I believe that all the audience understands that the doctors in the emergency room are fighting with death every day.
Sticking to life is the embodiment of the doctor's sense of social responsibility, and it is also a serious proposition shouldered by the play.
The broadcast of "White Castle" is to truly reflect the actual situation and inner world of front-line medical workers, pull in the distance between them and the audience, and eliminate the gap between them.
However, whether a domestic drama is good or not, in the final analysis, depends on whether it can resonate with the audience.
So is "White Castle" a siege of doctors and patients, or a battlefield between white angels and death?
Probably, it is a test of life and death for the patient, and it is also a test for the doctor.
