The State Administration of Radio, Film and Television has a special fund for TV drama guidance and support, a script support project, and a key TV drama in the "14th Five-Year Plan" of the Beijing Municipal Radio and Television Bureau.
The screenwriter is Gao Mantang and the director is Zheng Xiaolong, these two old comrades-in-arms are both top figures in the field of domestic TV dramas.
The two swords are combined, how bad can the plot be?
Plot

There is a young policeman named Wang Xin, played by Bai Jingting.
He was hard at work in the carriage, but at that moment, he saw an old policeman as a bad guy and mistook the old policeman for a fugitive.
Then, they began a hilarious master-apprentice relationship.
At first, the two of them didn't like each other and hated each other very much.
But slowly, the two of them figured it out, and then they became close partners.
Wang Xin, played by Bai Jingting, and Ma Kui, played by Ding Yongdai, work together in the railway public security, doing all kinds of magical tasks, such as anti-pickpocketing, anti-abduction, anti-narcotics, line patrol, cracking down on theft, robbery and fraud, in short, do everything.
Their motto is that the safety of passengers always comes first, and the safety of trains between the north and south is the most important.
These two railway policemen, the old and the new, have passed on the police spirit from generation to generation, witnessing the development of China's railways all the way, from steam locomotives to electric locomotives to high-speed rail bullet trains, China's changes are really earth-shaking!
