As soon as I saw "Once Upon a Time in the Water" killing the Qinghai poster, I couldn't help but sigh that it was worthy of being supervised by Cao Baoping. As the filming of "Li Mi's Conjecture" and "Scorching Sun". The director of these classic works, Cao Baoping has a unique aesthetic.
The TV series "Once Upon a Time in Bianshui", which he personally supervised, was finally officially announced recently. Judging from the poster, this drama is very textured, and the whole is full of mysterious atmosphere.
Guo Qilin is in a very old cottage and is tied up by five flowers. When he looked around, his eyes were full of horror, while Wu Zhenyu looked at the camera with complicated eyes, and there was a dense jungle behind him.
A few simple scenes make people feel the tension, and the story that happens here must be extraordinary. "Once Upon a Time by the Water" is a suspense drama, and suspense dramas have become more and more popular in recent years, but similar story backgrounds are rare.
Set in Sanbianpo, a fictional region that is full of life, mystery, and unseen dangers.
Guo Qilin plays the role of Shen Xing, a migrant worker, who came here because of an accident and met Uncle Chai, a peacemaker played by Wu Zhenyu. A strange encounter, an unforgettable redemption, the final direction of this drama is elusive.
It is understood that this drama is based on real events, and the prototype is the story of a teenager who has been exiled to northern Myanmar, full of hope, but unexpectedly full of crises. And for the leading actor Guo Qilin, this role is undoubtedly a huge challenge.
Guo Qilin can be said to be one of the most successful "second generation stars" in transformation, as a cross talk actor, everyone thought that after his skills matured, he would directly take over Deyun Club. Unexpectedly, he switched to the film and television industry halfway.
He has participated in the filming of several works, all of which have achieved good results, and his acting skills are also known for their natural and smooth skills, but this time it is different. Most of the previous roles were more lively and interesting, more like playing in their true colors, but this time they are much more serious.
And due to the requirements of the plot, Shen Xing's emotions fluctuated a lot, and he was in a state of panic for a large part of the time, and whether Guo Qilin could successfully perform this role also left the audience with a lot of suspense.
In contrast, Wu Zhenyu is much more sophisticated. has been acting for decades, has contributed too many wonderful works to the audience, and has also left too many impressive roles.
In this drama, he plays Uncle Chai, who looks very ordinary and even a little down-and-out on the surface, but in fact he can maneuver between different gangs and deal with various problems with ease.
However, all this changed after meeting Shen Xing, he gradually removed the disguise on his body and began to show kindness, and the two seemed to be "enemies".
But because of this encounter, they redeemed each other and ** each other. Let the audience feel the warmth between people in addition to tension and fear.
Guo Qilin has always given people the impression that he can speak well and is very lively and cheerful, while Wu Zhenyu is afraid to approach due to his appearance and unconsciously wants to keep his distance.
It is unimaginable that two people with such huge differences in personality can appear in one drama. Although both of them are recognized as powerful, what kind of chemistry will occur after matching can't help but make the audience look forward to it.
The performance of the actors depends on how the director leads, and the director of this drama should not be underestimated, and he is considered to have two important positions: director and screenwriter. He knows the plot very well, and he knows best how to tell the story to the audience.
Whether it is the use of lenses or the way of production, he is very thoughtful. He has also accumulated rich experience in directing "The Beginning", and I believe that under his control, "Once Upon a Time in the Water" can bring surprises to everyone.
This 16-episode suspense drama has just been completed not long ago, and is now being edited and produced in an intense and orderly manner, although the main suspense and mystery are real.
But what is more noteworthy in this drama is the in-depth understanding of human nature, I believe that after watching the play, different people will have deep feelings, which is worth looking forward to.
