Trapped at home during the Spring Festival, I inadvertently saw this "Black and White" web series, and the film's textured picture immediately attracted me into the plot, and I didn't even eat dinner, brushing up 12 episodes in one breath. Because I was moved by this conscience drama, I felt it.
At the beginning of the plot, a muscular young man prepares to sneak onto a cargo ship, and there are many armed gu puzzle boys on board who are busy carrying "goods". In the grass tens of meters away from the ship, countless public security officers are ambushed. After the man infiltrated the boat, he was found by Gu Qiuzai, who began a thrilling hand-to-hand fight on the ship, and finally the leader of the gu qiaozai who escaped detonated the oil drum, and the man was injured.
In the opening few minutes, the play explains many clues in one breath, the man is a veteran of the Special War, his fiancée was abducted by Gu Qiuzai, and the man only went to the boat to save his fiancée. As for how the plot began, I did not hesitate to depict this paragraph with pen and ink, because the beginning of the play was really amazing.
Although the plot begins with a one-line narrative, it uses a very flexible editing method, and the first scene at the beginning is a man sneaking into the cargo ship, but for the causal logic, it is cut into many small fragments and stuffed into the later plot. Such a superb editing technique raises the quality of the work in an instant, but at the same time raises the threshold for watching the play.
Because the audience who does not watch the play seriously may be dizzy by this slightly magical opening, the initial part of the treatment, although it is indeed suspected of showmanship, but I have to admit that the beginning plot of the whole play is impeccablely handled. And the memories that were cut into the main plot plot, and no shot was repeated, which was why I decided at the beginning that the quality of the show would not be bad.
The name of the male number one is Xiao Ang, is the veteran of the war mentioned above, if Xiao Ang is a martial arts master honed by the troops, then the male second is a self-taught sanda champion, the name of the male number two is called Wen Dan, compared to Xiao Ang's sunny tough guy appearance is different, Wen Dan looks slightly thin, but still the muscles are angular.
The two main characters in the play almost satisfy the fantasies of most girls about the male god, but this is not an idol drama. Because Wen Dan was locked up on the cargo ship, the two saved each other by chance, and the moment they jumped off the cargo ship together, the two people's lives began to intersect.
The reason why Wen Dan was imprisoned was because his sister was abducted by Gu Qiuzai, and he, like Xiao Ang, was entangled with Gu Qiuzai in order to find someone. At this point in the story, in fact, it has been very implicit to tell the audience that Xiao Ang and Wen Dan are the same kind of people, they are the kind of people who dare to desperately enter the dangerous situation in order to protect important people.
Due to the inflammation of Xiao Ang's abdomen, Wen Dan took Xiao Yang through the tropical jungle for 3 days, and the whole story took place in the chaotic Jinshan Point area. On day 3, they met a little fat riding an electric donkey pulling durian, and although the actor of the little fat is a vegetarian, the laughter of the whole play should be on him.
Xiao Chu's appearance is very special, his hair is dyed yellow, and his personality is like the wall grass of The Left and Right Fengyuan, but in fact, his nature is not bad. Now it seems that the reason why he dyed his hair yellow is also to "establish a will" in the village, because in his village, there are not only gangsters who do not do evil, but also gangs that run gray businesses. If Xiao Fat wants to survive in such a chaotic world, he must dress himself up like Gu Qiuzi.
When Xiao Fat encountered Xiao Ang, who was seriously injured, he still enthusiastically took the two of them back to the village, and when he encountered two gun-wielding Gu Qiu boy blocking the road on the way, Xiao Fat also took the initiative to cover for the people in the car. In the appearance of Xiao Fat, although I saw the nonsense funny that Zhou Xingchi was good at, in this little person, I saw more of the simple kindness of ordinary people.
And Xiao Fat probably didn't expect it at the time, because of this kind deed of his own, he would later be retaliated against by Gu Qiuzai's violent beatings and tooth extraction. The story line of Xiao Fat is not as legendary as the two male protagonists, but when he threw away the poison given by the ancient puzzle boy, he may have thought that he would not have a good end, but he was not ashamed of his friends and hearts.
In the small character of Xiao Fat, the play does not give a description of thick ink, but as an ordinary person under the aura of the protagonist, he is unarmed and may not even be able to beat an ancient puzzle boy, compared to Xiao Ang, who can single out the entire gang and Win dan who won the boxing king, such a small person as a supporting role looks small, but in fact it is also very great, because Xiao Fat represents the righteous indignation of every ordinary person in the face of bullies.
Maybe Xiao Fat can't even contribute a punch in the main fist game, but I am still very grateful to director Tian Lu for not ignoring every little person like Xiao Fat, the director can use Xiao Fat to outline the embarrassment of all ordinary people in the chaotic world, and it can also be seen that the director of this "Black and White" has a good foundation.
In addition to the two skilled male protagonists, the performance of the two female protagonists is also amazing. Ye Zi is a young female doctor in the clinic in Xiao Fat's village, because she has saved many people, so both black and white are more polite to Dr. Ye. During Xiao Ang's recuperation in the clinic, the gangster's Gu Qiu boy came to the door and Dr. Ye came forward to settle the situation.
The depiction of Dr. Ye in the play is not too whitewashed, and Dr. Ye's so-called leveling of Gu Qiuzai is also blocking his own life, hiding a gun under the pillow, ready to break the net with Gu Qiuzai at any time. Dr. Ye, played by Xue Huiwei, is innocent, kind and beautiful, and is also delicate and brave in front of the muzzle of Gu Qiuzai's gun.
Compared with another female protagonist, Lan Ya, Dr. Ye's story line is slightly simple. Lan Ya is the adopted daughter of the president of the Chamber of Commerce and the mastermind behind the whole story, she is good at disguise, calculating, and finally embarking on a dead end. If Dr. Yip is likened to a lily in the story, lanya is a veritable piranha flower.
The purpose behind all of Lan Ya's conspiracies is to sit on the president of the Chamber of Commerce and become the boss of the entire Chamber of Commerce and the gang. And the root of all this evil is from jealousy, she is jealous of her adoptive father missing his lost daughter, she is jealous of the other woman beside xiao Ang, who she likes, because of jealousy, Lan Ya has evil thoughts, and eventually causes a tragic tragedy.
In fact, in the play, not only Lan Ya ended in tragedy, but even dr. Ye, the white-clad angel, actually did not get Xiao Ang's love in the end, because the last scene in the play gave Xiao Ang's fiancée a scene of being released, and this shot also showed that the dark forces involved in the story have also been brought to justice.
Although the show is only 12 short episodes, the story is quite complete, almost no shot is superfluous, and the cinematic visual experience really makes the show unconventional. And this drama can stand out from many online dramas, and there must be many merits in it.
Unlike most previous web dramas, "Black and White" will unconsciously cause people to think deeply after watching, and there are many lines in the plot that make people profound, especially the president's part. After Xiao Ang was rescued by Dr. Ye, he temporarily defected to the Chamber of Commerce and used his own way of doing things to protect the clinic's thoughtfulness, which is called "people walking tea is not cold".
In several conversations between Dr. Ye and Xiao Ang, the "debt of human feelings" was mentioned. During Xiao Ang's wife search, dr. Yip has always been the care of Dr. Yip before and after the saddle, and Dr. Yip is not just a savior. Dr. Ye fell in love with Xiao Ang and asked for a peace charm for him, but never gave it away.
After Xiao Ang's fiancée was rescued, it was doomed that this "love debt" could no longer be repaid, and Dr. Ye did not say his love from beginning to end, but completely sealed this love in that possession charm.
The story does not directly reflect whether Dr. Ye's concealment in front of love is right or wrong, but uses an open way for the audience to understand the answer by themselves, and the reason why the play has a super artistic height is because there are still many questions about such openness. The reason why watching this drama will cause people to think deeply is also because of the open-ended problems lurking behind the story.
A good work will not directly send the answer to the audience, but let the audience find the answer in their hearts. Thank you again to director Tian Lu for being able to make such an excellent work!
