Spy war dramas have always been a tried and tested genre by major crews, but this year's spy war drama market has fallen into a downturn. Most of the previously promising dramas have lost in the plot full of loopholes, and even the acting skills have come to a comprehensive overturn.
But CCTV will always make a timely move, and at the beginning of December, CCTV directly presented the anti-special drama "Thrush" in front of the audience, wanting to alleviate the audience's anxiety about spy war dramas.
The drama "Thrush" is completely unpopular or has become a blockbuster, ranking first in the ratings for 3 consecutive days, even if there is not too much publicity in the early stage, it can quickly become popular as soon as it starts broadcasting, which is entirely due to the high quality of the series itself.
I have to say that CCTV has made an extremely important decision, "Thrush" as the finale completely lives up to everyone's expectations, allowing the audience to see a thrilling anti-special drama.
Peng Xiaoran and Liu Xueyi are highly anticipated
Since "East Palace", Peng Xiaoran has not had a work that can be done, and the audience is only left with the impression of exaggerated acting skills. The role of Pang Hongmei is undoubtedly a key opportunity for Peng Xiaoran to regain her strength, after all, spy war dramas occupy an eternal and important weight in the minds of the audience.
Although the costume in the play dragged the character back, this did not affect Peng Xiaoran's performance at all.
It can be seen that Peng Xiaoran has spent a lot of effort on the role of Pang Hongmei, and her subtle expressions are very well controlled, and her every move shows her domineering and decisiveness as a female public security officer.
The role of Pang Hongmei occupies a dominant position in the play, and she is not different from the counseling role of female characters in previous spy war dramas, but portrays Pang Hongmei as a female public security image with explosive force value.
In the play, the role of Pang Hongmei is more like Ji Danyang's personal bodyguard, no matter what kind of changes occur, Pang Hongmei will be by her side, so the setting of female A and male O completely makes the audience's eyes shine.
Liu Xueyi has never lacked acting skills, but what he lacks is just an opportunity to make him popular.
In the years of playing the second male lead, Liu Xueyi quickly got out of the circle with his superb acting skills, and the limelight once overshadowed the protagonist, but it is a pity that Liu Xueyi always lacks an opportunity to take the lead.
And the drama "Thrush" is undoubtedly Liu Xueyi's work to prove himself, the role of Ji Danyang is different from the previous image of the male protagonist, he is mainly a brain player, it depends on how Liu Xueyi interprets Ji Danyang's wisdom on the paper.
As a senior cadre who returned from abroad, Ji Danyang does not only have serious work in his life.
On the contrary, Ji Danyang's character design is completely based on the interests of the audience, but a high-IQ scientist is not lacking in humor and fun, and even incarnates the funny role of the bureau in one fell swoop.
Under Liu Xueyi's delicate acting skills, the perfect fusion of Ji Danyang's arrogance and high IQ was presented in front of the audience, and the appropriate emotional expression made the audience immersed in it and couldn't extricate themselves.
Liu Xueyi and Peng Xiaoran have debuted for many years and finally waited for an opportunity to prove their acting skills, whether the two can seize this opportunity to turn over their resources depends on the development of the next episodes.
I have to say that Liu Xueyi and Peng Xiaoran just stood together and their sense of fate was instantly full, especially the first person Ji Danyang thought of in danger was Pang Hongmei, this scene made the audience see the surging feelings between the two.
Pang Hongmei was injured in order to protect Ji Danyang, and seeing the guilt on Ji Danyang's face, Pang Hongmei would quietly change the topic, while Ji Danyang would put his coat on Pang Hongmei's body intimately. Ji Danyang and Pang Hongmei are completely equal partners, the two have always been tacitly supporting each other, and the audience shouted at each other with this ambiguous sense of seeing through and not saying anything.
Powerful actors joined
Bai Hui played by Suga Suzi is completely on the aesthetic point of the audience, and a smile on the stage makes the audience intoxicated, this is a proper sweet smile, clean and pure, which makes people feel healing when they watch it, and there is no performance component at all, and it is natural and smooth to watch.
The traditional Chinese medicine Bai Minghan played by Ding Yongdai is actually a clear identity, it depends on how Ding Yongdai hides the identity of "Snow Wolf", which is the most important ability for actors.
If it weren't for the fact that Bai Minghan had been told in advance in the play that he was a "snow wolf", the audience wouldn't have believed that an old Chinese medicine doctor with a kind appearance turned out to be an agent of the enemy, which is the brilliance of Ding Yongdai's acting skills.
When Bai Minghan saw his daughter Bai Hui, his eyes were full of a father's love for his child, and his eyes when he looked at Bai Hui inadvertently softened.
Watching Ding Yongdai's needle is professionally like a veritable old Chinese medicine doctor, and the role of Bai Minghan depends on how Ding Yongdai should hide from the world.
Looking forward to seeing Bai Minghan's identity completely exposed and the head-to-head confrontation with the public security, this is definitely a wonderful acting competition.
As soon as Zhao Wenfeng, the police chief played by Liu Zhibing, appeared on the stage, the audience saw a resolute and ruthless leader.
Don't look at Zhao Wenfeng's kind face and his subordinates to assign tasks, in fact, he hides a knife in his smile, and the knife is deadly, and his prestige as a leader arises spontaneously, and there is an undoubted momentum between the lines.
And the female leader Zhang Yan played by Kong Lin is a gentle knife with her own unique style for doing things.
When waiting at the train station, other people were taking the opportunity to be lazy, but Zhang Yan stood as straight as ever, even if his subordinates reminded him, Zhang Yan still ignored it and continued to maintain a serious posture.
But when he saw his proud protégé Pang Hongmei, Zhang Yan's face instantly bloomed with a satisfied smile.
This warm hug only lasted for a few seconds, and Zhang Yan reminded Pang Hongmei to pay attention to her behavior, which shows that Zhang Yan is very principled and does not allow anyone to break it.
Interlocking storylines
The drama "Thrush" is full of high energy at the beginning, and two assassination scenes are shown in just one episode, which shows the turbulence of the situation at that time.
As a key figure in the development of submarines, Ji Danyang was naturally coveted by many forces, but Ji Danyang chose to return to China without hesitation to shed his blood for the motherland.
But the enemy didn't want things to progress so quickly, after all, the information in Ji Danyang's hands was very important, which also laid the groundwork for Ji Danyang to distinguish the real from the fake Pang Hongmei.
The enemy only cares about the authenticity of the information, and if necessary, you can choose to kill people to ensure that the content is never leaked, but our purpose is to ensure the safety of Ji Danyang's life.
As soon as the play came up, there was a drama of "real and false Monkey King", and the audience who watched it was overwhelmed, and they all felt nervous for Ji Danyang across the screen. The hotel in Hong Kong is peaceful on the surface, but in fact, there is an undercurrent of forces from all sides, and Ji Danyang can't tell who is his connector.
But Ji Danyang is not a stupid white sweet male protagonist, and soon he heard the flaw from the fake Pang Hongmei's mouth, and finally finished the street with the real Pang Hongmei, but how to escape has become the most difficult problem at present.
I have to say that the director knows how to capture the hearts of the audience, and the constantly reversing plot makes the audience's hanging hearts never be able to let go, and they are completely brought into the situation at that time by the actors.
I thought that Ji Danyang would finally be able to return smoothly after this ordeal, but the ambush on the dock was the key, and this was the enemy's only purpose to cut Ji Danyang to the roots.
And the public security has long thought of countermeasures, and the enemy can only end in failure, but then the plot throws another question for the audience, "Who is the snow wolf", which is the highlight of the whole plot.
Before this, the director had already played two heavyweight battles to unravel the prelude to the war between the enemy and the enemy, so that the hardcore opening method was the most correct way to open the anti-special drama, and the tense and exciting atmosphere had been rendered to the extreme.
Every scene in the play is paving the way for the next plot. Although the audience already knew that the snow wolf was Bai Minghan, Ji Danyang didn't know and trusted Bai Minghan 100%, which was undoubtedly the biggest hidden danger around Ji Danyang.
In this way, the clear-eyed werewolf killing game is more interesting, every step of the snow wolf's actions is carried out under the noses of the audience, and the audience only needs to immerse themselves in the enemy's disguise.
"Thrush" can be favored by CCTV naturally has its reasons, the high-energy plot of the whole process makes the audience want to stop, Ji Danyang's contribution to the talent of the road is comparable to Tang Seng learning from the ninety-nine eighty-one tribulations, it depends on how Ji Danyang breaks the game.
But at present, the emotional line between Ji Danyang and Pang Hongmei obviously occupies half of the timeline, which is undoubtedly a red light for the audience.
The most taboo thing in spy war dramas is to put the cart before the horse, the emotional part far exceeds the development of the plot itself, and most of the previous spy war dramas have been defeated here.
The existence of emotional lines is not allowed in spy war dramas, but the director and screenwriter should reasonably balance the weight between the two, and the audience watches the tense and exciting spy war plot rather than how the protagonist falls in love.
The emotional line can only play an auxiliary role, rather than occupy the main duration, I hope that the drama "Thrush" can realize this, not repeat the mistakes of the past, and finally start high and go low.
Looking forward to the next plot broadcast of "Thrush", it will truly bring a thrilling spy war feast to the audience.
