100 help plan
The biggest hit of domestic movies in theaters at present-
"The Three Majors".
No. 1 at the box office, No. 1 in word-of-mouth, with a score of 7 on Douban9。
I have to admit that Chen Sicheng fought a battle of word-of-mouth.
As a suspenseful crime film, the movie did not deliberately design the plot reversal of solving the case and chasing the murderer, but told a long and strong true story in a documentary style.
Douban praise high-frequency words:"Best of the Year".
The movie is still unfinished.
In just over two hours, the old girl also felt that it was not enough to watch.
So, synchronously online,The drama version is here
Misty Theater.
These four words alone are already the quality assurance of domestic suspense dramas.
Plus the top-of-the-line configuration
DirectorXing Jianjun, the representative work "Crime Hunting Guide", directly with the profession of portraitist of the Red Police.
The cast lists all ruthless roles, "The Hidden Corner" + "The Long Season" + "Hurricane",Qin Hao, Li Naiwen, Chen Minghao, Tong Liya, Lin Jiachuan, Liu Yitie ......
However, the results were not satisfactory.
Douban Samsung:It's a pity to discard it.
What the hell is going on?In a word, it can be summed up -
is a good suspense drama, why did it become a bitter love drama?!
Good script, bad direction
The movies and dramas are all adapted from an article published by NetEase author Deep Blue in 2018-
"Please tell the director that the tasks of the three teams have been completed".
The story is very shocking, telling the story of the three major teams of the criminal police in the process of handling a vicious case that led to the death of one of the suspects, ten years in prison, ** is still at large, the former captain walked thousands of miles alone, like an ascetic in seven provinces, chasing the murderer for four years.
The archetypal story is extremely exciting, and the tension is stretched to the extreme in both time and geography.
But the drama version did it wrong from the first step.
At the beginning, he played the usual routine of domestic dramas.
Arrest drug dealers together, the captain of the three major teams of the criminal policeCheng Bing(played by Qin Hao) and the team members have been squatting for three days, and after being tired, he kept receiving messages on the pager, and his wife urged him to go home to sign a divorce agreement.
The typical public official, the contradiction between family and work.
Just this scene, the old girl has a secret feeling that something is wrong.
Sure enough. The core protagonist of the archetypal story has the most outrageous character design in this play-
The male protagonist Cheng Bing overturned.
Cheng Bing's story is mainly divided into two stages, one is to be imprisoned and the other is to be released from prison.
No matter what stage he is in, Cheng Bing is a good policeman who is jealous and hateful, and there is no doubt about this persona, from beginning to end, even after thousands of sails, he still stands firmly on the side of justice.
But in the play, Cheng Bing doesn't look like a policeman.
Let's talk about before going to jail first.
He is arrogant and lacks the sense of responsibility of a police officer.
In a ** case that the leader attaches great importance to, in the process of the collective meeting, Cheng Bing, as the captain of the criminal police team, should have highlighted his calm and capable, but the whole process was hanging, laughing and playing.
Just like this, he also boasted that Haikou would solve the case in three days, who would dare to believe it?
He has an impulsive personality and lacks the acumen of a police officer.
A girl who had just entered the second year of high school was raped and killed, and before that, Cheng Bing had a relationship with the girl in the process of investigating **, and he hid in the girl's house without realizing it, which happened after that**.
But afterwards, in the play, he borrowed the words of the team members to shift the responsibility on the second captain's lying about the suspect's whereabouts, and forced this kind of tragic setting on Cheng Bing's body, as if everything was caused by someone else's mistakes, and it caused him a great sense of guilt in his heart, isn't this really a whitewash for the character's dereliction of duty?
The above two points alone greatly reduced Cheng Bing's image as a policeman, and it was difficult for the audience to feel his sense of mission as a policeman and his ability to be a criminal police captain.
Let's talk about after being released from prison.
Ten years in prison was supposed to be a major turning point in Cheng Bing's personality change, but it only took a few minutes to sweep it away in the play, and it was difficult for the audience to substitute for it.
Especially the section where Cheng Bing was released from prison, it even gave people a sense of "the gang boss is back in action".
As we said earlier, even though Cheng Bing in the story is in prison, he is always a policeman at heart.
But in the play, Cheng Bing took the bus after being released from prison, and he saw the thief stealing with his own eyes, but his performance was blind, and the play may have wanted to express Cheng Bing's loneliness about things and people, but it also completely erased his righteous soul as a policeman.
Not to mention, he should eat and drink after he was released from prison, he bought 805's mobile phone when he said he would buy it, and he never had the trouble of lack of money.
Finally, there is such a detail in the play, which is also a very important part.
Cheng Bing lost control of his emotions during the interrogation and punched the suspect on impulse, and then the suspect died, and Cheng Bing was also imprisoned for ten years.
Although it is indeed a crime for the police to torture a confession to death.
However, according to the law at the time, Article 234 of the Criminal Law of the People's Republic of China, which came into effect in 1997, stipulates that a fatal punch can really be sentenced to 12 years
In the prototype story, Cheng Bing was sentenced to 8 years after "breaking three mops" during the interrogation that led to the death of the suspect.
But in the drama version, it has been emphasized that "it is difficult to judge whether the death of the prisoner is directly related to Cheng Bing's punch", in such a situation, he was sentenced to 12 years in prison, is this really reasonable?
(This is only a superficial understanding of the layman's ten points, if there is any mistake, please correct it in the comment area).
casually take out two stills:
One before jail and one after jail.
The characters are almost completely the same from their eye expressions to their body movements, and how can the audience be convinced of this story.
A murder case that spans more than ten or twenty years should logically be a sense of obsession with chasing the murderer, but the play is full of suspended ......
The details are full of loopholes, and the characters are full of slots.
True dissuasion warning.
False real, low IQ
The police were imprisoned for the arrest of the murderer, and he was released from prison ten years later.
These are also the two most exciting episodes of the story of "The Three Teams", and each plot is attractive enough.
The movie version is limited by the duration, and many details cannot be rolled out, but the drama version can just stretch the overall story line, supplementing the details of the sense of age, the escape route of the criminal, and the difficult process of chasing the murderer.
But adaptation is not a lot of useless cliché filling.
The most obvious impression that the drama version brings to the old girl is-
After the content is enriched, it is like a hodgepodge of domestic criminal investigation dramas, not only does it not have a dazzling sense of satisfaction, but it is even more hollow.
The plot is really familiar, and the direction is getting more and more outrageous.
First, the police became a big brother in prison.
After Cheng Bing was sentenced to prison, he immediately showed his background as a police officer.
That is, all the prison guards have to give him three points of thin noodles.
The unwritten rule that those newcomers in prison are bullied almost does not exist in him, and he is a big brother everywhere.
After being released from prison, Cheng Bing lived a generation.
Whether it was the younger brother he had arrested back then, or the social brother he met in prison, or the old colleagues in the police station who had worked together, they were all used by him, as if he could respond to every call as long as he wanted to.
Second, the misunderstanding of divorced families.
Cheng Bing didn't look for his daughter as soon as he was released from prison, but when he was working in the car wash, he met his ex-wife by chance, and immediately remembered his daughter and became a good father.
There is such a scene in the play.
His ex-wife didn't let Cheng Bing and his daughter see each other, so he went to school to take a look from afar.
At the school gate, because of his strange behavior and unusual parents, he attracted the attention of the security guards, and Cheng Bing, who was originally a police officer, fought with the security guards without giving any explanation.
At that time, the old girl guessed that she wouldn't tell his daughter, right?
As a result, he called his daughter over, and asked about the relationship between the two in public, and then everyone around was pointing at the murderer's daughter, the daughter angrily refused to recognize her father, Cheng Bing was heartbroken, full of powerlessness and ......
Just this plot, the old girl has already watched it no less than three times in the same type of Chinese drama.
Third, criminals are hard to launder.
The old girl really doesn't understand, why does the screenwriter want to be vicious?
The two brothers Wang Dayong and Wang Eryong in the prototype are heinous criminals, raping and killing underage girls, with no humanity at all.
In the play, the two were forced to have a less than perfect original family, a father who was violent and alcoholic, and the mother became their weakness, and even a lot of details were used in the play to portray the image of a strong mother, who did not hesitate to give everything for her son.
When Cheng Bing met the Queen Mother for the first time, he also saw Wang Eryong's daughter, the girl and Cheng Bing's daughter had the same birthday, but they had very different life ......
I really don't know what the screenwriter's intention is to make up a sad childhood and family for the suspect?Do you want the audience to understand and sympathize with a murderer?
The whole drama is filled with such invalid fragments, as well as a large number of intelligence-reducing plots, even if they are deleted, it doesn't seem to affect the direction of the plot.
The old girl can't help but wonder——
Domestic screenwriters, can they only make up these vulgar plots?
It's very screwed and stubborn
To be honest, although there are many problems in the drama version, it is not a bad drama.
A lot of details from the 90s, old hotels, internet cafes, Nokia ......You can see the intentions.
Different from the focus of the movie version, the drama version has weakened the other supporting roles to a certain extent, focusing more on the protagonist Cheng Bing, plumping up the blank spaces in many prototypes, and slowly telling Cheng Bing's heart from multiple perspectives such as life and family.
But it is precisely because of this that in the eyes of the old girl, the essence of the drama has been lost.
A fundamental problem-
What is the significance of Cheng Bing's pursuit of the murderer?
Because of this case, he went from a promising captain of the criminal police team to a prisoner in the blink of an eye, and he lost almost everything, his marriage and family, the daughter who once regarded him as a hero, and all the previous badges of glory disappeared because of the word "murderer".
After being released from prison, he did not hesitate to give up the opportunity to start over and continued to chase the murderer, for nothing else, it was the obsession of the police.
Times are rapidly evolving, but Cheng Bing has become a prisoner of fate.
Having lost his identity as a policeman, he was completely ignorant of the progress of criminal investigation technology and law, and it was even more difficult to chase the murderer, but he had nothing, and persuading him to let go of his obsession with chasing the murderer was tantamount to depriving him of the meaning of existence.
But in the drama version, Cheng Bing added too many common things in Chinese dramas.
The vain character lines and meaningless plot design are completely contrary to the truth of the original real story, and the whole drama presents a stubborn sense of twisting.
Such an adaptation, no matter how good the actor is, can't save it.
Before the press release, the drama version was scored(Open score 7.)5）。
In fact, the old girl feels a little inflated about this.
Maybe I have seen the prototype story, and I will be moved by such a lonely and resolute character obsession, with the progress of the times, Cheng Bing's contribution to criminal investigation is not irreplaceable, but this society needs Cheng Bing.
A stubborn policeman, even if he takes off this police uniform, he is still sticking to that justice.
