In the domestic drama market in 2025 years, there has not been a suspense drama that provokes the beam.
The reputation of "Bleaching" has fallen to the bottom due to the controversy over the plot, actors, and publicity, and the Douban score is only 3.0.
Although "Burning Sin" and "Above the Afterburner" have received a Douban score of more than 0.0, the popularity is not satisfactory and the response is mediocre.
It wasn't until 3 that the audience waited for a "Chess Player".
Produced by Han Sanping and starring Wang Baoqiang, such a team must not lack popularity, and the ratings rank first in the country.
At present, this drama has been updated to the sixth episode, but when you open the comment area, the call to abandon the drama is getting louder and louder.
The actors' excellent performance can't be saved, what went wrong with this drama?
"Chess Warrior" tells the story of Go teacher Cui Ye (played by Wang Baoqiang) who accidentally gets involved in a crime, embarks on the road of crime in the oppression of life, and has a different path from his brother Cui Wei (played by Chen Minghao), who is a policeman.
If a suspense drama wants to become a hit, in the final analysis, it still needs the plot.
This drama revolves around the process of the male protagonist's "blackening", and many viewers who have watched the first few episodes have been persuaded to retire by several key loopholes in the play.
The first is the way the male protagonist is dealt with after being kidnapped.。
After Cui Ye was hijacked at the credit union, he had to help the robbers escape in order to protect himself, which is understandable.
But after he deliberately caused a car accident and seriously injured the robbers, he chose to escape with the stolen money.
Shouldn't the male protagonist explain the situation to the police at this time?
A car accident is not inexplicable, nor is it the so-called "dead end", you have to turn yourself into an accomplice to the robbery, and you are not guilty.
The second is Cui Ye's criminal motives.
Cui Ye's work, marriage, and family in the play are unsatisfactory everywhere, but these are not the reasons to support his choice of crime.
And the biggest reason for him - his son is seriously ill and urgently needs money, which is also a bit far-fetched.
The elder brother and ex-wife both care about Cui Ye's father and son, and they will not help him, but Cui Ye wants to break the law and commit crimes.
This kind of plot direction of "there is a road to be blocked" is very different from the "desperate situation" imagined by the audience.
originally thought that the loopholes in the first one or two episodes might be made up for by the follow-up plot, but it is obvious that the foreshadowing loopholes in the early stage are too big, and the follow-up plot is gradually collapsing.
I thought the plot would be more concentrated when it entered the main line, but I didn't expect it to be quite loose.
The robbers who survived the car accident approached Cui Ye and said that they had previously tied up Qin Xiaoming, the bank accountant, and asked him to help deal with it.
It's almost time to "kill for money", and they still want to take the blame on themselves.
The screenwriter seems to have set the premise that "Cui Ye is a criminal", and then wrote the script, without considering what kind of psychology he had before he really fell.
Co-author: Now criminals also have to be "prefabricated", right?
Since it's all set like this, the highlights of the game between villains and decency can still be watched, but the plot has begun to give the male protagonist a halo again.
Cui Wei found that Cui Ye's son gave his daughter the same Go problem as the "chess game" left by Cui Ye in the credit union, and asked Cui Ye in person.
But when Cui Ye saw the chess game, the first thing he said was to ask"What is this drawingThen he asked Cui Wei with an uncharacteristically urgent roar.
The younger brother who has played Go for more than ten years is this reaction, isn't it abnormal enough?
It may still not be enough. Cui Wei didn't think about him at all, and left directly after a few words.
The professionalism of the old criminal policeman is not effective when it comes to the male protagonist.
Cui Ye's side was even more outrageous, following the account book left by Qin Xiaoming to check the smuggling of businessman Wang Hongyu, and the two people involved in the smuggling chatted about shipping while playing games.
also directly let Cui Ye find the den.
If Wang Hongyu's smuggling is so easy to investigate, will it be Cui Ye's turn to find him?
And if Cui Ye is really so powerful, then he is not only more suitable to be a criminal policeman than his brother, but he will not live a life so depressed.
But Cui Ye, who is so nimble-minded, has to be threatened by a hairy boy Jin Xiasheng.
His brother died in order to distract the police, and in addition to questioning Cui Ye with fierce emotions that day, he turned his head as if it had never happened.
Even, Jin Xiasheng is still in the mood to flirt with other girls and fall in love.
Then his brother is a tool for the male protagonist to show his talent.
In order to show the IQ of the male protagonist, the other characters in this drama have been demoted, but the male protagonist's methods are not very clever, and the plot seems to be unfathomable, which seems to be even more nondescript.
Although Wang Baoqiang, Chen Minghao, Li Naiwen and other acting schools have played flesh and blood in the roles, what cannot be changed is that the currently updated plot content is far-fetched everywhere.
The protagonist's actions began without clear motivation support, and the follow-up plot did not come back, climbing the plow in the east and a broom in the west, giving the male protagonist a motive.
In order to promote the development of the plot, the twists of many key episodes seem to be a bit random and cannot withstand scrutiny.
The audience was disappointed with "The Chess Warrior" precisely because they had great expectations, but apparently, the plot presented in the end was too far from what they expected.
So do you think this drama is still worth chasing?
