On April 9, the highly anticipated "City in the City" was launched, and the show quickly appeared on the hot search after it was launched, which aroused heated discussions among netizens.
"City in the City" is adapted from Xiao Lan's novel of the same name, set in the metropolis, showing a fierce duel between Tao Wuji, a newcomer to the bank, Zhao Hui, vice president of the branch, and Miao Che, the head of auditing.
The play is starring Bai Yufan, Yu Hewei, Xia Meng, Wang Xiao, and many powerful actors such as Lonnie, Feng Jiayi, Wang Jinsong, etc., from the perspective of the cast, the strength is still very strong. Especially the combination of Yu Hewei and Wang Xiao is called the ceiling of the uncle circle by netizens.
At present, judging from the effect of the first 4 episodes, the audience's evaluation of this drama has been polarized, and the comment area is either a five-star positive review or a one-star bad review, but on the whole, there are still more positive reviews than bad reviews, as far as I am concerned, I give five-star praise for this drama, and there are two main reasons.
01, the plot is compact, and the whole process is high-energy
As a financial TV series, for most audiences, there is no requirement for the so-called professionalism in the play, because whether it is professional or not, as a layman, I really don't know, so the plot is the key to attracting the audience.
"City in the City" as a whole, the rhythm is still very fast, there is no drag, the first episode introduces the main characters clearly, followed by the first conflict point, Dai Xing died unexpectedly, with the death of Dai Xing, many unknown secrets behind it were also brought out, and the forces of all parties started a contest.
After that, all kinds of intertwined character relationships were also unraveled one by one, although it was a workplace drama, but the first few episodes turned out to be a bit of a suspense drama, the male protagonist in order to investigate the loan company, staged thrilling scenes such as running on the highway and jumping into the river, and I didn't know that I thought it was a criminal investigation drama.
All in all, the plot of "City in the City" is very attractive, and the more you watch it, the more you look at it, the more you get better.
02, the actor has excellent acting skills
Just looking at the four actors Yu Hewei, Wang Xiao, Wang Jinsong, and Tu Songyan, you can think of how enjoyable it is for the old drama bones of "City in the City" to play on the same stage, not to mention that there are golden supporting roles like Feng Jiayi.
In addition, there is Lonnie, who became popular in "Hurricane", this time she once again amazed everyone in "City in the City", and her appearance is as high as ever, but from the current point of view, Zhou Lin played by Lonnie should be a villain, I don't know what kind of development will happen in the future.
There are also many actors who are familiar to the audience, such as Xia Meng, Yang Zishan, Chen Jin, etc., and several of them are very good at shaping their roles, and their acting skills are definitely not lagging behind.
Of course, after the launch of "City in the City", there were also a lot of bad reviews, and most of these bad reviews were focused on the male protagonist Bai Yufan.
Many viewers in the comment area bluntly said that the male protagonist Bai Yufan wants to have no good looks, and he has no acting skills, which is really blind to a group of old drama bones, and some viewers said that Bai Yufan can't support the male number one at all, and it is more suitable to play a supporting role.
Judging from the effect of the current broadcast, the acting skills of the male protagonist played by Bai Yufan are indeed a little worse than those old drama bones, but it is not so much that he can't look at it directly, and he can still catch the play on the same stage with the old drama bones, after all, Bai Yufan has taken the powerful route since his debut.
Although he only started his acting career in 2015, Bai Yufan's growth rate is still very fast, and he is well-known to audiences across the country with "Mountains and Seas", and then starred in "Under the Prosperous City", and his acting skills are also recognized by the audience.
The appearance can not be regarded as outstanding, but as an actor, Bai Yufan's acting skills are absolutely no problem, the reason why the audience feels that Bai Yufan's performance in "City in the City" is average, it is because there are too many old drama bones in this drama, in comparison, Bai Yufan's acting skills are not so outstanding, but it is undeniable that Bai Yufan's acting skills are still online.
All in all, "City in the City" is a good drama worth watching, and I look forward to more exciting plots in the future!
