Whenever it comes to domestic spy dramas, it is no accident that 8 of the 10 dramas will roll over.
But this time, there is a spy drama that successfully breaks through -
"Aiming"
In fact, to be honest, Ami's expectations for this drama before were not too high.
First of all, domestic spy dramas, in recent years, not only have there been few hits, but they have also frequently pounced on the street.
Secondly, the cast, although Huang Xuan is from a literary film and has created many excellent roles, he has also starred in many workplace bad dramas over the years.
Not to mention the other lead actor Chen He, in addition to "Love Apartment", has been relying on lace news to attract attention.
But what I never expected was that "Aiming", which gathered so many street conditions, not only did not overturn, but also became a large-scale "true incense" scene.
The story takes place in 1949, on the eve of victory in the War of Liberation in Matsue.
At the beginning of the play, it is a thrilling intelligence docking.
Enemy intelligence officer Ye Guanying (Wang Yanhui) brings a secret piece of information to Songjiang to prepare to dock with the "guests" sent by the Secret Service.
But in fact, our side has already intercepted the intelligence, so we led our troops to set up an ambush in advance.
However, people are not as good as heavenly calculations, the ambush was accidentally exposed, Ye Guanying saw that the outnumbered crowd was about to be arrested, and in a hurry, he snatched a child as a hostage.
In order not to hurt the child, we decided to adopt procrastination tactics and find an opportunity to rescue the hostages.
Just when the situation was deadlocked, a gunshot rang out, Ye Guanying fell to the ground in response, and the child was unscathed.
It is good that the child can be safely rescued, but the question is, this gun was not fired by us?
So who sent it?
It turned out that there were not only our people, joint agents, but also other masters on the scene.
"Aiming" is full of substitution at the beginning, the rhythm is fierce, not procrastinating, and if you are not careful, you may miss important information.
As the plot continues to advance, it is found that this gunshot is actually related to a pair of partners who were born into death.
Su Wenqian (Huang Xuan), code name Muyu, is usually a wood carving master who sets up stalls in the square, but is actually a folk sniper master.
Chi Tiecheng (Chen He), code name jellyfish, is usually a pastry chef from France, but actually works for the Secret Bureau, and is a fierce killer machine.
The two men have super personal abilities, and have once collaborated to snipe many traitors and Japanese people.
However, with the victory of the War of Resistance, the two were not at odds with each other, and Su Wenqian even directly withdrew from the jianghu and has since been incognito.
But what I never expected was that an intelligence operation would link the two people together again.
Next is the common "two males" duel in film and television dramas.
After Su Wenqian's identity was exposed, Chi Tiecheng quickly found him and hoped to join forces with him again.
However, Su Wenqian has decided to abandon the dark and throw in the light, and join forces with us to fight against the powerful Secret Bureau.
With the help of Su Wenqian, we learned that the Secrecy Bureau will soon have a sniper operation.
So he once again made a sufficient ambush, ready to wipe out the enemy.
But the Secret Service suddenly retreated...
Different from the general spy drama, the protagonist of "Aiming" is aimed at the snipers rarely mentioned in previous domestic dramas.
As the core characters in the series, the images of the two protagonists are very plump and completely faceless.
Su Wen was humble and kind, once made a rule of not shooting, not killing, only saving people, and later when he dropped his belongings to buy expensive cakes for little girls as birthday gifts.
At the same time, he is very skilled, not only with a god of marksmanship, but also with only a steel pen tip to unlock the strong handcuffs.
Chi Tiecheng is completely different, he is fierce, the city government is very deep, in order to complete the task, even children can do it.
Moreover, his subordinates also inherited his vicious style, not only fierce in heart, but also extremely tacit in their cooperation with each other.
In this way, this "two-male" duel will definitely satisfy the audience's appetite.
Of course, in addition to the exciting "two males" duel, this drama also added a lot of emotional elements.
Ouyang Xiangling (played by Yang Caiyu), code name Seagull, and the two male protagonists have a deep blood feud, but the plot developed later, it seems that Su Wenqian and Su Wenqian have resolved a lot of misunderstandings.
It is worth mentioning that this is also the third cooperation between Yang Caiyu and Huang Xuan after "Fanghua" and "Only Yun Knows", and what kind of sparks will be rubbed out by the two sides in the end is also very worth looking forward to.
In addition to the exciting plot and the fullness of the character image, the picture texture of "Aiming" is also very elaborate.
From costumes, wood carvings and other props, to buildings and street markets, they have been carefully studied, and the crew strives to make every detail fit with the old times.
As for the modern equipment such as fax machines and slide projectors that are hotly discussed in the barrage, in fact, all of them have historical basis.
As early as 1845, the slide projector had entered industrial production, and the fax machine had begun to circulate in China as early as the Beiyang government.
Of course, to be able to appear such an excellent spy drama, it has to be mentioned that the director is five hundred.
Wubai is very good at crime suspense themes, and has directed many high-selling and acclaimed works such as "Psychological Crime", "Antiques Bureau Central Bureau", "In the End" and so on over the years.
And this "Aiming" also inherits the consistent suspense elements of his works, and it is really impossible to guess the truth until the end.
However, "Aiming" is 57 episodes long, and there will definitely be many new clues in the follow-up, whether the plot will be injected with water, and whether the ending will be bad, which is really worrying.
But in any case, I am still very fortunate to have encountered such a meticulous spy drama.
Ami would like to say:
I hope that there will be more spy dramas in the future that can withstand scrutiny.
