At the beginning of 2024, a wave of craze has been set off in the domestic drama circle, with Wong Kar-wai's "Flowers" and Hunan Satellite TV's "Our Translator" all earning eyeballs. However, in this wave of craze, the new drama "Scout Hero" directed by Zheng Xiaolong was launched in a low-key manner, but it received praise from the audience.
This drama not only won the first place in the ratings on the day of its premiere, but also ranked first in the satellite TV ratings for many days. What has aroused wide acclaim among the audience is not only the novelty of the plot, but also the strength of the starring lineup, the superb skills of director Zheng Xiaolong, and the brilliant performance of Qi Lu, a "little potato in the south".
Zheng Xiaolong, one of the domestic gold medal directors, has made the audience remember with works such as "Desire", "Golden Wedding", and "The Legend of Zhen Huan". The starring lineup is even more powerful, with powerful actors such as Luo Jin and Ma Sichun joining hands with old drama bones Xing Jie and Song Jialun to perform together.
And the plot is even more reassuring, the crew strives to be highly restored in the service road, from the vehicle to the map. During the filming, the actors conducted military training in advance and chose the mountainous area of Chengde, Hebei Province, with similar terrain to shoot in-depth, making the overall presentation more realistic.
One of the eye-catching roles is Qi Lu, played by actor Huang Chengcheng. The character of Qi Lu did not attract much attention from the audience at the beginning of the play, but as the plot developed, he gradually showed a strong personality and perseverance.
Especially in the face of minefields, he challenged himself and shouted fearlessly in the rain of bullets, which made a deep impression. Although the image of this "little potato in the south" is somewhat incompatible with his comrades-in-arms, at critical moments, he shows excellent reconnaissance ability.
Qi Lu's background also laid the foundation for his growth, he was a member of the new 22nd Division of the New Sixth Army of the Kuomintang, participated in the War of Resistance against Japan, and became a volunteer in the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea. This character is not simply "oil", his reconnaissance ability and dedication to the mission make him stand out in the play. In the face of the tense situation of the war, he played a key role in inferring the enemy's situation through the sound of gunfire. In the play, his actor Huang Chengcheng showed Qi Lu's growth and tenacity with a vivid performance.
A key literary drama in the play made Qi Lu more plump. In a conversation with section chief Liang Chen, Qi Lu showed his persistence and rejection of "fear of war". The scene not only has depth on an emotional level, but also reveals the delicate balance between protecting oneself and completing the mission in war. Huang Chengcheng vividly interpreted this dialogue through superb acting skills, showing Qi Lu's inner struggle and growth.
In the development of the plot, Qi Lu's image gradually shows multifacetedness. He not only has a brave side, but also cares for his comrades and a sense of responsibility for the mission. In the face of adversity, he was able to handle it properly and ultimately fought for peace. Huang Chengcheng shows the growth of the character through subtle changes in expression in the follow-up plot. His Qi Lu is both a brave warrior and an individual full of emotions, which makes the character more three-dimensional and touching.
Regarding Huang Chengcheng's acting skills, the audience's impression of him may be stuck in his previous works, but in "Scout Hero", he showed excellent acting skills through his deep role understanding and superb performance.
In the play, his careful preparation for the role and respect for the audience make the character of Qi Lu more vivid. Huang Chengcheng once said that actors should consider creation from the perspective of the play rather than the audience, and he did this. He showed a deep understanding of the character in his performance, presenting a full, touching image to the audience.
In the finale, "Scout Heroes" will show even more thought-provoking power. This war drama shows the difficult years of that era through reconnaissance, rescue, surprise attack and other missions. The audience can not only see the wonderful fighting scenes, but also feel the resourcefulness and strategy in the confrontation between friend and foe.
Such a truly restored war film is undoubtedly a work that the audience desires. In the process of watching, we must not only remember the "greatness of the volunteers", but also understand that they are a group of ordinary people, because they stand up for everyone's vision. It was their sacrifice that brought about the prosperity we have today. Let us always remember that they are the most respectable people!
