According to the statistics of relevant departments, the backlog drama accounts for nearly 50% of the TV drama market, that is to say, the TV series produced every year can finally meet only about half of the audience, and the remaining half becomes a backlog drama, waiting for them can only be silently waiting or looking for opportunities to reduce the price, turning to the prefectural and municipal TV stations, and some are eventually eliminated.
In 2020, there are many backlog dramas waiting for the opportunity to be broadcast after a long wait, and they are lucky in comparison, such as Liu Yunlong's "Odds of Winning" (2015), Wang Zhouzhou, Xiao Zhan's "Wolf Highness" (2017), Ren Jialun's "Autumn Cicada" (2017), and Zhang Ziyi, Zhou Zhouwei, and "Shangyang Fu" (2018) starring Yu Hewei, which just aired in 2021. The main reason why they can be broadcast is that the main actor has a continuous heat, or the popularity of the main actor continues to rise. And many other TV series are not so lucky, especially those that have not been reviewed and not broadcast, for example, in 2017, according to incomplete statistics, there are 60 TV series that have not been reviewed, in addition to the existence of key backlog drama actors, policy problems, a large number of works backlog reasons for narrow digestion, competitiveness is not prominent, if the filing review time limit has not been broadcast, it will disappear in the "long river of history". This also includes some episodes that we've heard of or learned about before. Today, I will introduce you to four spy dramas that cannot be broadcast for various reasons, some of which need to wait for the opportunity, and some of which may be completely out of touch with the audience.
I. TV series "Sunset on the Long River"
The TV series "Sunset on the Long River" was launched in January 2017 by an overseas film crew aboard the Hornet aircraft carrier in San Francisco, USA. On January 17, 2018, the domestic film crew started production at the Xiangshan Film and Television Base in Zhejiang Province. As the first Sino-US CO-production TV series, the drama cuts from local feelings and engraves a magnificent historical epic with a grand pattern and a global perspective.
This spy drama by Zhang Luyi, Zhang Junning, Zhang Chenguang and many famous actors from China, Japan and the United States, 90% of its content comes from real cases, the war scenes of the drama are really shocking, the spy war plot is gripping, and the exquisite real scenes and special effects sound effects are like the film texture. The drama relies on the famous "Doolittle air raid" or "air raid on Tokyo" in World War II, with the male protagonist Muichiro and the female protagonist Ye Biying rescue the "believer" carrying the secret plan of "bombing Tokyo" as the main story, which not only highly restores a series of historical events, but also reveals many unknown behind-the-scenes stories.
However, due to the current international situation and the irresponsible attitude of the Western countries led by the United States to slander and slander our country under the epidemic situation, as well as the situation of commemorating the 70th anniversary of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea in 2020, the production and broadcast of various film and television dramas on the theme of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea is in full swing.
2. TV series "Top Secrets"
The reason why this TV series cannot be broadcast seems to be needless to say, we have to lament the producer of this drama "wise eyes and pearls", first because of the use of Zhao Lixin for two years, it is difficult to solve his problems through various methods and scientific and technological means, and ready for broadcasting, but did not expect a bigger blow to follow, Zheng Shuang's people set collapse to become the last straw that crushed the show, and now it is estimated that the producers have no place to cry! And this spy drama "Top Secrets" will not be unexpectedly completely out of touch with the audience!
III. TV Series "Red Sherlock Holmes"
From the above list of TV dramas that have not been reviewed and not broadcast in 2017, we can see the name of this TV series, which depicts mao Ding, chief of the reconnaissance section of the Yan'an Border Security Department in the Yan'an Border District during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, fighting with the enemy's special forces, facing the enemy lurking, setting up a situation, releasing a heavy fog, and everyone in the Yan'an Border Security Department worked together to calmly face it, through a series of detections, reasoning, wisdom fighting, and even white-knife encounters, and finally exposed the enemy's conspiracy and defeated it. The reason why it has never been broadcast is that the lead actor Zhao Lixin.
After Zhao Lixin was banned for inappropriate remarks, the first to be affected were the TV series that he starred in and had not yet aired. And "Red Holmes" is one of them, different from other TV series, zhao Lixin in this drama as the first starring, the role is undoubtedly the most, so even if the use of technical means, not to mention how much investment, in terms of effect is difficult to fool the audience, therefore, this TV series is afraid to say goodbye to the audience.
IV. TV Series "Wartime We Are Young"
In the table above, we also saw a TV series "Wartime We Are Young", which was directed by Wei Dajun in 2016, and unfortunately became one of the works at the bottom of the box.
Speaking of Wei Dajun, everyone may not know much, but the TV series directed by him, "Militia Ge Er Egg", "Guessing Fist", and "Bronze Dagger" are all more familiar works. And why did this TV series "Wartime We Are Young" become a backlog drama? Xiaobian believes that the reason why this drama is not asked about is that the main actors are from newcomers and do not have the conditions for hype.
"We Are Young in Wartime" is a revolutionary drama starring Feng Xiaotong, Yu Bin, Guan Le, Wang Chuanyi, Guo Feng, Lin Xinlei, Qi Zhi and so on. The play tells the story of a group of young people with different identities who come together during the war years, go through layers of hardships, become tenacious fighters, and finally complete their mission. We can see that there are almost no familiar faces among these lead actors that are familiar to our audience. Perhaps director Wei Dajun hopes to promote new people with this drama, but it seems that satellite TV and broadcasting platforms have not bought this account, because they are more concerned about the influence and eye-catching ability of the TV series itself. Therefore, this TV series labeled as a youth inspirational war spy war has also disappeared in the long river of history.
