After 4 years of backlog, CCTV finally gave up, and as soon as Song Yi appeared, the sexiness of spy war dramas came out

I have to say that spy war dramas have become the main ratings of domestic dramas this year.

First, there is "Infernal" starring Jin Dong and Wang Zhiwen;

followed by "Thin Ice" by Wu Yue and Wang Jinsong;

Later, there was "Lurker" by Huang Xiaoming, Wan Qian and Jiang Xin.

You think that's the end of it?

Just when Zhang Songwen's "Lonely Boat", the great director Zhang Li's "Harbin 1944", and Liu Yunlong's "The City of Might" were gaining momentum, a spy war drama with a backlog of 4 years quietly started.

The 42-episode spy war drama "The Hive" will land on the Central Eight Prime Time from August 27.

It was started in December 2017, completed in April 2018, and broadcast in August 2023.

The TV series "Hive" has gone through a long period of time from filming to broadcasting, and it is finally time to meet the audience.

After watching the trailer of "The Hive", I think it is difficult to say whether this spy war drama can explode, but it still has a lot of highlights.

The background of the story is set in 1933, after the Japanese army captured Shanhaiguan, the anti-Japanese situation in North China was precarious.

Shanghai is a place that is even more volatile, with multinational forces glued and undercurrents.

Agent Gu Pan (played by Song Yi), after completing the task of his mentor Pucong, was secretly arranged to complete the assassination mission aimed at Koji Kamiya, the director of the Japanese Department of Economic Affairs.

Although Gu Pan completed the task, he was framed and seriously injured.

In a desperate situation, he was rescued by our undercover agent Wei Dong, and with his help, Gu Pan went through the test and entered the secret organization "Hive" to try to find out why he was framed.

In the process of searching for the truth step by step, Gu Pan not only found out about the internal espionage organization, but also learned more about the dark and corrupt side of the national government.

So with a righteous expectation in his heart, he began to throw himself into our camp, lurking under the code name "Seahorse".

In the end, after experiencing many difficulties and dangers, he not only destroyed the "beehive", but also cracked the "dark sun plan" that the Japanese army had planned for a long time.

Looking at the whole story, it is not difficult to see that "The Hive" is buried with three major highlights.

1. Women's perspective

In previous spy war dramas, most of the perspectives were male, and female characters were either vases or foils.

In fact, the charm of female characters can make the sexiness of spy dramas stand out.

On the one hand, female characters are the "seasoning" of spy war dramas.

In the rapidly changing situation, the existence of female characters can put the finishing touch on spy war dramas and achieve unexpected effects.

On the other hand, female characters tend to have their own tinges of pathos.

As long as the female characters are portrayed well, they can greatly add a touch of brightness to the spy war drama and broaden the depth of the entire drama.

And "Hive" chose Song Yi as the heroine, and she fancy her versatility.

In the spy war drama "The Pretender", Yu Manli, played by Song Yi, has a bloody, righteous and evil smile.

Not only is it fascinating to watch, but it also feels a chill behind it.

This kind of difficult temperament is exactly what female characters in spy war dramas need.

2. Fierce doubt

If you want to understand this drama, you need to read these three keywords - "fierce", "chaotic" and "suspicious".

Many spy war dramas like to set the battlefield in Shanghai, which has a certain history as support.

On the surface, there are forces of many countries here.

Secretly, black and white, the Japanese army, Japanese and pseudo spies, etc. are intricately intertwined, highlighting the word "chaos".

It is in the context of troubled times that the multifaceted nature of female characters is even more complex than that of men.

They can be gentle and virtuous ladies, or fearless warriors of faith.

Either don't shoot, or you can do it cleanly as soon as you make a shot, taking advantage of women's natural advantages and playing with the enemy between the palms.

The temperament of the "fierce" woman is at a glance in spy war dramas.

In my opinion, the focus of the story of "The Hive" is obviously on the element of suspense.

Take Han Dong and Song Yi, they were enemies and friends at the beginning, and later fought side by side, the relationship between the two was not achieved overnight, but experienced the test of life and death.

In this process, Han Dong had to trust Song Yi on the one hand, and guard against her on the other hand.

3. The temperament of spy war dramas

In fact, many people will be worried, afraid that "The Hive" does not have the temperament of a spy war drama.

In my opinion, this worry is superfluous.

First of all, the background is chosen correctly, which makes this show have a unique charm.

Secondly, Song Yi, as the heroine, can resist the banner of spy war dramas this time.

The whole drama tells the story of the fate of the characters through the ups and downs of the characters, telling Agent Gu Pan's entanglement of self-identity and self-redemption, which is very interesting.

Not only that, the suspense elements are cleverly set up, and the plot development is unexpected, which lifts the crisis while bringing the situation into another dilemma.

In this way, the audience cannot predict how the next plot will develop, and it is impossible to predict the mystery without seeing the ending.

Finally, the play changes the setting of the positive characters in the spy war drama and the face image of the enemy.

Luo Xingming played by Han Dong, Gu Pan played by Song Yi, Tan Zhongwen played by Fan Xing....

Whether it is the protagonist or the supporting role, each has its own characteristics, which is unforgettable.

In general, "The Hive" has the potential to be a hit in all aspects, which is really very exciting.

However, I don't know why, not only is the play not officially announced, but there is not even an official blog, which is very surprising.

Is it confidence in your own strength, or do you not want to be too high-profile.

Anyway, let's wait and see!
