The premiere is coming! CCTV's 37-episode spy war drama is coming, big names are gathered, and explosive models are booked
The spy war theme is also a big hit in domestic dramas, but the spy war dramas that have been famous over the years, such as "Rebel", no matter what kind of data they broadcast, are difficult to match the reputation of spy war ceiling "Lurking" and "Wind".
Among the many spy war dramas to be broadcast, "Lonely Boat" cooperated by powerful actors such as Zhang Songwen and Zhou Wei can be described as quite eye-catching.
After "Crazy", Zhang Songwen burst out of the circle and played the villain again in "Lonely Boat", and the topic was even higher.
But just when the audience was looking forward to the launch of the spy war drama "Lonely Boat" and refreshing the new ceiling of the spy war theme, CCTV launched a 37-episode spy war drama, and news came out.
It is reported that the TV series "Lurker" has successfully passed the trial and has become a CCTV drama to be broadcast. If nothing else, the TV series will soon meet the audience. The key is the quality of this drama presented in all aspects, which allows it to show the potential of the blockbuster.
The configuration is online, the texture is excellent, and "Lurker" is a hit book
The spy war drama "Lurker" is set in Shanghai in 1941, telling the story of underground worker Fang Jiashu (played by Huang Xiaoming) when his identity is about to be revealed, and Tao Yuling (played by Jiang Xin), an underground revolutionary with the same position, the two disguised as a couple with two children, continue to lurk in the mission, and work together to get through the difficult situation in each other's care.
From the perspective of the plot, one of the highlights of "Lurkers" is to abandon the current routine that spy war dramas are always based on male perspectives. In addition to the important male protagonist, the female protagonist Tao Yuling also took on the heavy responsibility of promoting the main line of the story.
This is the special feature of "Lurkers" and the eye-catching point of this show.
Audiences who have watched the classic spy war drama "Lurking" should know that the latent couple cooperated by Sun Honglei and Yao Chen in the play is quite eye-catching.
And "Lurker" also staged a similar plot and bridge, and it is bound to create a spy version of the Smiths, and the two join forces to reject a single protagonist aura. This alone is more interesting than most spy dramas that use female characters as tool men or drag oil bottles.
Moreover, the team configuration of the drama "Lurkers" is a popular standard at a glance.
Director Gao Han has participated in the creation of many popular dramas, not only co-directed with director Xu Jizhou "Reunion Dinner", "Killing the Tiger's Mouth", "War Thunder" and other works, but also participated in directing the national drama "My Brother Called Shunyo" and the popular costume drama "Qing Yu Nian" in 2019.
Although most of these works are not film and television dramas directed by him alone, judging from Gao Han's directorial resume, he is experienced and familiar with the creative process of blockbuster dramas, which is also an advantage for the TV series "Lurkers".
In addition, Yu Fei, the screenwriter of "Lurkers", is not well-known, but he holds well-known works such as "Six Groups of Serious Cases" and "The Eternal Airwaves", and his screenwriting and creative ability is very in line with the requirements of strong logic and outstanding rhythm of spy war dramas.
In other words, the plot framework and production team of "Lurkers" give this drama destined to be good. And the cast also added weight to the work again.
The male protagonist successfully went to oil, Jiang Xin played steadily, and the gathering of big names is worth watching
Huang Xiaoming, who is the domineering president line, always makes the audience complain greasy, but in fact, Huang Xiaoming's acting skills have a high ceiling, as long as the role and style are appropriate, he can surprise the audience.
This time in "Lurker", Huang Xiaoming's Fang Jiashu is very charming. In the trailer, he is dressed in a suit, clean and fresh, with the maturity and steadiness of a middle-aged man, and also has a quiet sense of mystery.
As an undercover agent, Fang Jiashu walks between life and death, and even if he is calm in disguise, there will be moments of emotional outbursts.
For example, the scene flashed in the trailer, Fang Jiashu held Tao Yuling who almost collapsed, Huang Xiaoming's eyes were scarlet at this time, and his hair couldn't stop trembling, although the character comforted Tao Yuling in his arms, but just this scene made the audience have a sense of fear.
In contrast, Jiang Xin's interpretation has broken her previous image on the screen. Tao Yuling is an agent, but obviously not an experienced agent like Fang Jiashu. She will panic when the enemy is entangled, and she will be in a trance because she is forced to kill.
Jiang Xin in these episodes is a weak woman. But in the trailer, she often shows a firm gaze, allowing the audience to see the inner faith of the characters.
But such a seemingly weak, but actually resolute female character is completely opposite to the image of a big woman that Jiang Xin often plays on the screen. This is Jiang Xin's performance breakthrough, and it is also an opportunity for the audience to see her acting shaping power.
As the male and female protagonists of "Lurkers", Huang Xiaoming and Jiang Xin have convinced the audience from popularity to acting skills. But in the cast of "Lurkers", there are more than these two.
Wu Xiaoliang, who played the villain, once brought a full surprise to the audience in "Sweeping Black Storm". He is ruthless and full of ruffianism, and this time in the trailer of "Lurker", he is full of dangerous values, especially in the interrogation scene, he is quick and ruthless, and his eyes are sharp and oppressive.
In most young students, Wu Xiaoliang's aggressive performance method is rare, and it is also very suitable for the charm of the villain.
In addition, actor Wan Qian is also a big surprise in "Lurkers". Wan Qian's own interpretation style has many changes, not only can control the urban drama full of life, but also can interpret the female boss in modern spy war dramas. And most of the characters she created this time are also villains.
It can also be seen from Wan Qian's appearance in the trailer that she is full of domineering delicate female devils. From the perspective of role positioning, there are many male villains in film and television dramas, but female villains are relatively rare. But the rarer it is, the easier it is to whet the audience's appetite.
Judging from the trailer alone, the drama "Lurkers" can be said to be a gathering of big coffee, not only the starring actors are very well-known, but the supporting roles are also actors who are quite familiar to the audience.
Wang Zhifei, who also appeared in the supporting role list, has acted in many popular dramas in recent years such as "Sweeping Black Storm", "Happiness to Ten Thousand Homes", "Ordinary Road" and so on, and the audience has a high degree of recognition of Wang Zhifei's acting skills, and is also looking forward to his performance in the new drama.
All in all, in terms of cast, "Lurker" can be said to be the configuration of the ceiling level of domestic dramas. As long as the plot and character do not collapse, the combination of these actors is the icing on the cake and the highlights are constant.
Of course, "Lurker" needs to be a hit at the right time and place, and the fermentation of public opinion is very important, so I also hope that the drama can seize the opportunity, smoothly go online, find the publicity point, and amplify the revenue of the hit period of "Lurker" to the extreme.
