The national dramas in 2024 can be regarded as lively, and various dramas will be launched together.
First of all, Wong Kar-wai hit the TV drama market with "Flowers", which was ecstatic, and the peak ratings of the premiere exceeded 2.6, and nearly 150,000 people scored a high score of 8.2, achieving a win-win situation in ratings and word-of-mouth.
Immediately afterwards, the audience has been looking forward to the three-year "The Years of the Great River is Like a Song" (hereinafter referred to as "The Great River 3") finally started broadcasting, and the original team reappeared to speak, and the last masterpiece of the big IP series is a blockbuster reservation no matter how you look at it.
It's a pity that "Big River 3" met a strong opponent like "Flowers", and the premiere did not explode.
However, ratings are not the only criterion for measuring works, and word-of-mouth is equally important, let's take a look at who will be better in the two dramas this time-
"Big River 3": The quality has regressed and the drama has been abandoned
"Dajiang Dahe 3", as a sequel to the hit, was popular before it was broadcast, and every time a new material was released, it caused a lot of discussion, but everyone didn't seem to be satisfied with it after the first three episodes.
Let's look at the comments of netizens first——
"Is this directed by Kong Sheng?" "The shooting is getting worse and worse", "I feel like I'm making up the numbers", "It's getting uglier and uglier season by season", "It's filmed very carefully, but it's not good-looking"
It can only be said that the comments of netizens are on point.
The beginning of the plot is a wave of previous situation review, probably after introducing the plot of the first two seasons, the story begins to enter the main topic, and the process reform of Pengyang Pesticide Factory is successful.
After that, the workers and leaders of the factory thanked Song Yunhui (played by Wang Kai) and Song Yunhui's thanks, and filmed most of the episode, it is difficult not to be considered to be in the water for a long time.
Towards the end of the first episode, the main scene begins, the pesticide phosphorus produced in the factory exceeds the standard and causes death, Song Yunhui comforts the factory workers while taking responsibility and finding out the root problem.
When Song Yunhui cooperated with the investigation and took the expert group to check whether the machinery for producing pesticides was aging, he happened to see the personnel involved going to the operation room to destroy the evidence.
The design of this section is a bit interesting, so many people in the inspection expert group didn't notice the person who slipped in next to them, but Song Yunhui saw it alone, and found evidence that it was hidden in the heavily monitored factory.
The protagonist's aura is a little too wide.
Song Yunhui didn't care about it, and the brothers on the other side were not idle.
Lei Dongbao (played by Yang Shuo) wants to set up a Dengfeng wire factory, the factory has not yet opened, Lei Dongbao talked to his brothers one by one, one for another, in short, these people have two hearts for Lei Dongbao.
is either a fake account and greedy for money or a lot of debts, Lei Dongbao said everything without asking the other party for trouble, and focused on a "You throw mud at me, I will use mud to plant flowers".
Moreover, the people who worked with Lei Dongbao were transferred, which made his work more difficult.
Yang Xun (played by Dong Zijian) is about his sister and his long-term lack of communication, which leads to an estranged family relationship.
This guy was terrible enough last season, and in the new season, all the bad things are piled up, and the audience is also terrible to watch.
What's more, these three story lines are not connected at all, like a story made up, and each of them has nothing to look at.
"Flowers": Getting better, staying up late to chase wildly
"Flowers" is too friendly to the eyes of the audience.
The unique plot, meticulous and unique aesthetics, and just the right amount of humor have raised the reputation of "Flowers".
This drama is really getting better and better the more you watch it.
I think the first thing that attracted me to "Flowers" was not the plot, but the picture.
This drama presents Wong Kar-wai's consistent and unique artistic style, and uses high-quality images to bring the audience a different experience of chasing dramas.
Every frame in the play has a cinematic texture, and each shot seems to have been carefully polished, with beautiful light and shadow effects, whether it is a street or a building, it seems to be given life.
When the audience was immersed in the atmosphere of old Shanghai and couldn't extricate themselves, the plot began to "exert force" again, bringing the audience into the play.
The story line is fully unfolded, the intrigue of the business war drama and the temptation of each other instantly arouse people's interest, how Ah Bao (played by Hu Ge) became Mr. Bao, Wong Kar-wai filled the gap in the original book with his own understanding.
Under the business war, the past and emotional experience of each character are revealed, and even the charm of the supporting roles is infinitely magnified.
For example, Uncle (played by You Benchang), who has seen too much sophistication, has a clear distinction between public and private and knows how to distinguish between proportions, and is comfortable in business.
There is also Mr. Wei (played by Zheng Kai), the comedian in the play, and the purest person in the play, who seems to be very arrogant and has no heart, but in fact has only one heart, that is, to be good to his lover wholeheartedly.
Although these two characters do not intersect in the play, they best represent two different people, one is a businessman who overturns the river and the sea in the Huangpu River, and the other is a young man who falls in love in the Suzhou River.
While others are constantly wandering in the Huangpu River and Suzhou Creek, when feelings and interests are linked to doomed not to go for a long time, each line is more or less full of regrets, which has achieved the BE aesthetics of "Flowers".
What's more worth mentioning is that "Flowers" brought many good actors to the audience.
The one who amazed me the most was Xin Zhilei.
Xin Zhilei is so beautiful under Wong Kar-wai's lens, in the background of light and shadow, Xin Zhilei's red lips make her charming, looking domineering and tender.
Moreover, her acting skills are also very good, Li Li played by Xin Zhilei is bound to make Zhizhenyuan bigger and stronger, one raises her eyes, full of oppression, showing her ambition.
But when saying goodbye to her beloved, she hugged each other tightly, tears rolling in her eyes, and she was full of brokenness.
Whether it is acting skills or appearance, Xin Zhilei is too amazing.
What surprised me the most was Tang Yan.
In terms of image, Tang Yan is too different from the rich daughter she portrayed before, and she is a little ugly, but her acting skills have improved too much.
After being reported for taking bribes by her colleagues, Miss Wang, played by her, rushed forward to reason with others and smashed the jar in her hand at the other party, but in the face of her master's indifference and distrust, she stood in place for a long time and couldn't come back to her senses, her eyes were full of anger and disappointment.
Tang Yan's progress is really impressive.
Epilogue:
When "Flowers" and "Dajiang Dahe 3" were not yet broadcast, they were both popular bookings in the hearts of the audience, and after watching 3 episodes each, one abandoned the drama, and the other stayed up all night chasing after it.
"Flowers" opens high and walks high, and all aspects of the plot, quality, and acting skills are online throughout the process, which is meaningful and easy to accept when watched, and constantly surprises the audience.
But "Big River 3" is a little disappointing, the first 3 episodes have a slow plot pace, each tells its own story and is not related, and a group drama has been changed to a "platter drama", which is too different from the painting style of previous seasons.
However, "Dajiang Dahe 3" has only aired 3 episodes, as long as the follow-up plot is strong, it will definitely make up for the previous shortcomings, and it will not be a problem to save the reputation.
Which of the two dramas do you think is more in line with your expectations?
