Which category of domestic dramas can sell well for a long time and never get bored? The author believes that the answer is anti-black drama.
Twenty years ago, the "watermelon baoripe" meme in "Conquest" is still ridiculed and sung by netizens. And the scene where Wang Zhiwen was shot in "Black Ice" is still impressive. Even in the past few years, anti-black dramas have continued to emerge and have caused a sensation without exception. For example, the scene of Xu Yingzi biting the corner of the table in "Sweeping Black Storm" is creepy, and the blood stains of corpses at the door of the Public Security Bureau in "Showdown" are still fresh in memory.
Recently, Wang Jinsong's "Ice Rain and Fire" is a hit, and at the same time, another anti-black drama is also in preparation, that is, "Punishment". Before the broadcast, the audience's expectations were already high, because this is a popular, large-scale anti-black theme drama covering Li Youbin, Cheng Yu and many other old drama bones.
Sure enough, as soon as it was launched, the popularity of "Punishment" soared rapidly.

Five years ago, he bought the Zhao family's house, but fell into the scam of the unfinished building, resulting in the family being unable to move in with a huge mortgage. The wife went to the Zhao family to seek a fair solution, but was beaten by the Zhao family, resulting in serious injuries and kidney removal. Although the man made repeated real-name reports, he never received a response, but let the report letter be in the possession of the Zhao family. While recording the whistleblower video, the third son of the Zhao family broke in with a group of people, threw the man downstairs, and then brutally killed his wife, creating the illusion that his wife committed suicide.
