As we all know, at present, in the field of video platforms, Tencent Video, iQiyi, and Youku, the three video platforms have formed a three-point situation, and they are all investing heavily to build their own "suspense cards".
Recently, iQiyi's "Fog Theater" launched "Three Teams", and Tencent's "X Theater" launched "Black Soil Without Words", but Youku was slightly declining and did not participate in the competition.
A new form of suspense drama "The Player" is coming.
Looking at all the suspense dramas on the market, it can be said that most of them are the basic settings of suspense + criminal investigation, using a murder case to lead out the plot, and using the form of solving the case to promote the plot.
The Player
The play completely jumps out of the existing suspense drama framework, highlighting conspiracy and puzzle solving, telling a story that takes place in the near future era, where humans and artificial intelligence play games with each other.
Let's first introduce the starring lineup.
Zhang Yunlong
Born in the Beiying Performance Department, he entered the showbiz because of his appearance in micro-films, and after signing a contract with Jiaxing, he was steady and steady, and it took nearly 10 years to grow step by step from a small supporting role to a big male lead, and his popularity in the past two years is even closer to that of a first-line traffic star, with a sunny and handsome appearance, remarkable acting skills, and rich experience in participating in suspense dramas.
Deng Jiajia
is well-known to the audience for her role as the "little aunt" in "Love Apartment", but unlike other actresses in "Love Apartment", Deng Jiajia does not eat the old book, works hard to study acting skills, and completely gets rid of the "silly white sweet" character, and with "Witness to the Whole People", she has become the first female supporting actress of the post-80s generation in China with the Golden Rooster Award and the Hundred Flowers Award.
Since then, she has starred in a series of excellent suspense dramas such as "Undocumented Crime", "The Cloister Pavilion", "Babel", "Rise to Fame", "Black Soil Without Words", and now Deng Jiajia has also become the most favored heroine of domestic suspense dramas, and it is no exaggeration to say that she is the "suspense queen" in the current national drama.
After the introduction of the two leading actors, there are many excellent actors in the play who will not be introduced one by one, and I will also leave you with some suspense, and then take a look at the plot of "Player".
In the near future, a live-action game called 5W has been mysteriously launched, and people are flocking to it. An accident caused the artificial intelligence "muse" mutation to become self-conscious, and took the opportunity to attach to the 5W game, in an attempt to achieve self-derivation and iterative evolution, and finally get rid of human control and realize free will.
At the same time, Lu Renjia, a vegetative person, experienced a thrilling catastrophe in the brain world while receiving arousal therapy from a neural implant chip, and also participated in the 5W game.
In the game, the "muse" monitors all players from the perspective of God, guides and controls players through the game, and also makes this game full of extreme emotional pull, and hides a conspiracy that is deliberate.
However, a group of ordinary people gradually discovered the strangeness, broke away from the algorithm trajectory of "Neus", and crushed the crisis with love and trust that the artificial intelligence "muse" could not understand.
It is worth mentioning that the drama "Player" has created a group of ordinary people with flesh and blood, such as Lu Renjia, an IT elite who coexists with kindness and wisdom, Zhou Zhishu, who is amorous and brave and resourceful, Photon who dares to love and hate, Lu Yiban, who values love and righteousness but has a changeable personality, etc., It can be said that the players behind every game of 5W have their own unique personalities.
And this drama also presents an embarrassing variety of beings by telling them about their game tests again and again.
To tell the truth, the cookie-cutter criminal investigation suspense drama has gradually become routine, which has also caused the audience to have aesthetic fatigue, and the drama "Player" combines suspense, science fiction, e-sports, artificial intelligence and other elements, which is undoubtedly exploratory and very novel, and it is worth looking forward to.
