"Scout Hero" not only broadens the creative dimension of works of the same theme with the innovative perspective of "Scout", but also narrows the distance with the audience through the successful shaping of the image of ordinary soldiers, triggering their emotional resonance. Among them, many young viewers and netizens also joined the army of chasing dramas, "In addition to the fierce battle scenes and earth-shattering **, "Scout Heroes" quietly tells the audience how we won through the presentation of tactical details", "Wen Jie's line captures the importance of ideological work on the battlefield, and the enemy engineering department warms this cold battlefield with language and words", "It not only focuses on the smoke and blood rain of the battlefield, but also delicately depicts the brilliance and complex emotions of human nature behind the war" As director Zheng Xiaolong said in an interview, "The biggest hope for every work broadcast must be that the audience will love to watch it, and they can feel and think while loving it." ”

The creation of group portrait characters is highly recognized, telling the story of ordinary people in the war is different from similar works that focus on macro narratives in the past, "Reconnaissance Heroes" does not show the artillery fire and gunsmoke on the battlefield in a large way, nor does it focus on the high-level strategy to win a thousand miles, but mainly focuses on the wisdom, courage, and sacrifice of the grassroots officers and soldiers, and restores the most real battlefield and the most brutal battle of the year with a small view. Director Zheng Xiaolong said, "Ordinary people and ordinary soldiers are also worthy of our praise, and I think we should fully explain this matter, talk about their wisdom, their comradeship and feelings for the country, I think this is also what makes us different from other works." ”

Take the "living map" Qi Lu (played by Huang Chengcheng) as an example, because he was born in the New Sixth Army, the main ace of the Kuomintang, and understands the power of American equipment and **, he initially knew how to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages and was very good at self-protection on the battlefield, but this kind of behavior is the timidity and fear of war in the eyes of his comrades-in-arms. But through Liang Chen's persuasion and continuous training in battle, Qi Lu gradually understood "who to fight for", and also transformed from a "soldier oil" to the most trustworthy reconnaissance squad leader. This character has a very character arc, interpreting the growth process from an ordinary person to a hero.

Scout Heroes also follows the creative principles of non-mythology and non-dwarfing in the creation of positive and negative characters. Scouts are also flesh and blood, and they can fall at any time; The enemy will also anticipate the actions of our troops and will seize the opportunity to attack our troops. "Wen Wei Po" praised this: The screenwriter and director outline the true face of the war as small as possible through the multi-dimensional perspectives of martial arts and intellectual battles, enemies and enemies in a seemingly "small" pattern. The reconnaissance heroes are not only heroes who shoulder the trust of their families and countries, but also a group of ordinary people from all over the world, who are flesh and blood, laughing and tearing, and have the same emotional bonds. It is precisely through the portrayal of their pyrotechnics and human touch that the heroes fade their halo and enter the hearts of ordinary audiences, realizing resonance across time and space. The cruelty of the war is shown from multiple angles, and the "accidental sacrifice" is also the hero "Reconnaissance Hero" in the mountain and forest ambushes, life and death interspersed, night crossing the river and other combat scenes show the differentiation of our army in the use of strategy and tactics, but due to the large gap between our army and the enemy's equipment, it has caused great difficulties for the volunteers to fight. When necessary, in order to protect their comrades-in-arms and turn the tide of the battle, the soldiers of the reconnaissance squad could only choose to resist the rain of bullets with their flesh and blood, and the scene of their voluntary sacrifice made the audience unbearable and sad.

In the Battle of the 314 Heights, Jin Zhe died with the enemy in order to cover his comrades, Li Wanfu volunteered to carry out the task of blowing up the bridge and died heroically, and Liu Heiniu blocked grenades in order to protect Bi Lei Rod, they are all well-deserved heroes. But in the plot that was broadcast near the end, the sacrifice of the people made the audience feel the fragility of life and the cruelty of war from different perspectives. His abrupt "disconnection" was caused by the shrapnel that flew out and hit the ...... of the back of his neckSuch an unexpected form of sacrifice does not seem to fall into the category of "heroic" or "heroic" in the general sense. But as director Zheng Xiaolong said, "There are not only heroic sacrifices on the battlefield, but also many accidental deaths, such as being hit by stray bullets and being killed by landmines......Their deaths are also valuable, and they are heroes. This is also the innovation of "Scout Hero" in the plot, "accidental sacrifice" is a plot that is rarely shown in similar domestic dramas. These meticulous designs allow the audience to experience the cruelty and unpredictability of war more fully. Human death is instantaneous, and war brings only disaster to the individual. By contrast, peace is even more precious. Female characters cannot be ignored, showing "her power" on the battlefield In the war theme, female characters usually appear as supporting roles, or even are missing. But "Scout Heroes" does not ignore the female power of the war years, and the roles of the two main female characters, Wen Jie and Zheng Yushu, are of great significance. Wen Jie is a "master of psychology" in the play, facing her comrades-in-arms, she can warm her heart and comfort and rekindle his enthusiasm for life; In the face of captives, she can accurately grasp the psychological weaknesses of the other party, obtain valuable intelligence information, and show the pattern and mind of the Chinese People's Volunteer Army to the international community. At the same time, Wen Jie, as an officer of the "enemy engineering department", is also responsible for propaganda and broadcasting to the enemy, interrogating prisoners, translating, rescuing the wounded, etc., which is also the first time in a domestic war-themed film and television drama to positively popularize the work content and significance of the enemy's engineering department. Like the front-line soldiers who charged into battle, women represented by Wen Jie also played an important role and made indelible contributions to the final victory of our army.

In addition, the portrayal of North Korean guerrilla leader Chung Ok-sook also reflects the female brilliance in "Reconnaissance Hero". Zheng Yushu is straightforward and heroic, she has been on the front line of the battlefield all the year round and is very familiar with the terrain and landforms; Plots such as helping Liang Chen blow up the bridge and venturing into the enemy-occupied area to search and rescue Liang Chen not only fully demonstrated her combat ability to not lose to men, but also wrote about the friendship between the Chinese and North Korean people. Wen Jie and Zheng Yushu concretize the female power on the battlefield, they have the delicate softness of women, and the strength and bravery of soldiers, both in ability and courage, showing the demeanor of heroines. Although they came from different countries, they were all the epitome of women who made great contributions to the victory of the war. "Scout Heroes" finds the idea of solving this kind of theme by telling the stories of ordinary people on the battlefield, and the practical significance derived from telling good stories and shaping good characters is more socially valuable. A righteous battle 70 years ago, through the screen across time and space, the audience followed the footsteps of the scouts to the battlefield of that year, looking back at the great and difficult war years, and paying the highest respect to the Chinese People's Volunteers. The Chinese people are not afraid of war, but the Chinese people cherish peace more - this is the theme that "Scout Heroes" wants to convey to the audience the most.

The first round of broadcast of "Scout Heroes" has been successfully concluded on January 27, Guangdong Satellite TV is on the air from January 25, and Shandong Satellite TV is expected to be broadcast on February 12. Let us once again look back at those arduous and eventful years and pay our highest respect to the "loveliest people".
