Chapter 390: Emei Peak, also TM alone, quite romantic temperament
As expected, "Latent" did not disappoint the audience, and the scenes between Yu Zecheng and Cuiping were very interesting.
Cuiping has a carefree personality and has lived in the countryside all year round. When she first came to Tianjin, Yu Zecheng had to teach her how to adapt to life in the city.
He taught Cuiping step by step how to use the electric light, toilet, and pajamas. He also tried his best to comfort Cuiping, and used words that Cuiping could understand to let her understand that the two of them were lurking in the enemy's nest now, so they must be careful in their words and actions.
Especially now that Ma Kui has arranged for a person to live downstairs and monitor him, the two of them have to be more careful and careful.
Director Yu is a father and a mother at the same time. After a few days of getting along with him, he is exhausted both physically and mentally.
Cuiping was still so silly. Sometimes she didn't understand Yu Zecheng's caution and would make some mocking remarks.
One day, Yu Zecheng was so angry with Cuiping that he ran to the contact person to complain. Shopkeeper Qiu comforted him, but then he ran back angrily.
An undercover agent with outstanding abilities and strong psychological quality was forced to do this by a "Tu Nizi", which undoubtedly brought a great sense of contrast and conflict to the plot.
The audience almost died laughing after watching this scene, and the comments on the screen were all about feeling sorry for Director Yu Da.
Also out of the circle is [Shaking Bed]. In order to protect their relationship as a couple and confuse the spies watching downstairs, Yu Zecheng holds the bed and slowly shakes it every day, creating a heated battle situation of "a little separation is better than a newlywed".
As time went by, Cuiping complained that Yu Ze shook the bed all day long, whether he was trying to show off that he was good at it, and at the same time, he felt pity for the single agent downstairs.
Yu Zecheng was unmoved and continued to shake the bed. The spy downstairs could only choke silently, feeling mmm in his heart.
This shaker plot lasted for a long time. From Cuiping's arrival to Yu Zecheng's defeat of Ma Kui, the plot never stopped.
At first, Yu Zecheng shook it by himself, but later Cuiping started to cooperate and help shake it. At this time, the audience would smile tacitly, and all kinds of dirty jokes would fly everywhere.
Only pure children will raise their little faces, look at their parents with innocent eyes, and ignorantly ask the uncles and aunts on TV why they shake the bed.
At this time, parents who are more particular will take the opportunity to teach their children through fun and entertaining ways. Ordinary parents will know how to deal with their children when they grow up. Parents who are stupid will ask their children to go to school to ask the teacher tomorrow.
teacher:???
………
As I said before, the main plot of the drama "Insidious" is the spy war, and the plot of Cuiping and Yu Zecheng is the second main plot after the spy war.
When Cuiping first appeared, some viewers were worried whether "Latent" would have a vulgar plot? The style of the entire drama was developing towards romance.
But as the plot unfolded, everyone discovered that Cuiping had another clever plan.
From the perspective of the TV series as a whole, the daily life of Cuiping and Yu Zecheng is a rare and relaxing plot in the overall tense and depressing spy drama "Insidious".
It's like sunshine in the dark clouds, dispersing a lot of gloom. It's quite friendly to many viewers who don't like heavy styles.
Moreover, Cuiping's appearance not only made the plot more loose and relaxed, but also provided a strong supporting role in Yu Zecheng's latent work from a plot perspective.
It is undoubtedly extremely difficult for a person to go undercover in the enemy's nest and fight against the fierce and cunning enemy.
Every time Yu Zecheng walked out of his house, it was like stepping into a fighting battlefield. Even before Cuiping arrived, even his "home" was a battlefield.
Facing such a difficult environment every day puts great mental pressure on Yu Zecheng. Even if he has Zuo Lan as his spiritual sustenance, water from far away cannot quench his thirst for immediate relief. He has not been able to express himself. He is afraid that problems will arise in the long run.
And the arrival of Cuiping just makes up for this.
Although Cuiping often gave Yu Zecheng headaches and often hindered her, forcing him to come out and wipe his butt.
But Cuiping is his own person after all, and Yu Zecheng can let go of his guard and trust her. Even if he just bickers every night and talks about the things they have encountered, it is also a good channel for Yu Zecheng to relax mentally.
In other words, without Cuiping, Yu Zecheng would be holding everything back and unable to vent his emotions, which might lead to a psychological breakdown later on.
At first, the audience didn't notice it, but after professional film critics like Yi Dian Yueban took the lead in analyzing it, they gradually figured it out.
Then he criticized other spy dramas.
It’s also a spy thriller and an emotional drama, and the male protagonist is killing everyone and holding the female protagonist back.
Why is "Latent" not blunt at all, making the audience feel that the plot should be discovered this way? The heroine Cuiping is silly and cute, but not annoying.
In other spy war dramas, the male and female protagonists bid farewell to each other and kiss each other, which makes people feel physically uncomfortable. Seeing the female protagonist dragging her feet makes the audience want to rush into the TV and give these two stupid bitches a hard time.
Forced fight.
The characters, the plot, or more precisely the logical details.
The emotional line of "Latent" starts suddenly, but develops step by step, relying on the main line, neither fighting nor competing, just right.
This is very important. There are always bad dramas that forcibly ignore other plots for the sake of emotional scenes, creating opportunities for the male and female protagonists to get along emotionally.
For example, when the hero and heroine are on the run or doing something important, and the situation is extremely urgent, but your butt is burning, you suddenly find yourself next to a moonlit ancient tree and a small lake, and let the hero and heroine slowly fall in love.
Isn’t this making people angry!!!
You can't finish things first and then find a place to talk.
Arranging the plot in this way is a reversal of priorities, regardless of importance, which will seriously affect the quality and reduce the audience's perception.
"Latent" does this very well, neither Yu Zecheng, Cuiping, nor Zuo Lan has any brains for love.
In everything, the interests of the family and the country come first, personal feelings come second, and although the emotions are strong, they are restrained. This not only enhances the main plot, but also adds a different kind of charm to these emotions.
Revolutionary love is often more touching than many loves...
There is also the heroine, Cuiping in "Latent", although she was stunned and stupid when she first came in, but she listened to Yu Zecheng's advice and was fooled by Yu Zecheng, and she also started to make little progress and kept growing.
Although Cuiping sometimes lags behind, in many cases it is not her own fault, there are many external factors.
And Cuiping is not only a hindrance, but also helps Yu Zecheng a lot at critical moments, some of which are important assists.
Even in the later stages of the plot, Cuiping has fully grown up and is almost no longer a hindrance. Instead, she has become an important arm of Yu Zecheng.
In contrast, some female protagonists who are also lagging behind do not only cause trouble for the male protagonist, but also insist on claiming self-righteousness and risking their lives under the banner of so-called self-reliance and self-improvement, and they do it from beginning to end without remembering to eat.
Remember to hit.
With such a brain-dead person, I really can’t understand why those male protagonists love her so blindly. Is it exciting?
With such an awkward plot and characters, the audience will definitely not buy it.
If you are perfunctory to the audience, don't blame the audience for swearing. If you are sincere, the audience will naturally support you.
………
After the initial turmoil, Cuiping quickly became the new favorite of the audience.
She and Yu Zecheng formed [Shaking Bed CP], which also replaced the previous "official couple" Yu Zecheng and Zuo Lan in the hearts of the audience.
Taking advantage of this trend, the ratings of "Latent" have been soaring. On the fourth day of broadcast, the average ratings have reached 2.76. Looking at its upward trend, it will only take a day or two to break 3.
The overall momentum of "Latent" is not as good as that of "Bright Sword", which was called crazy back then, but this year, both "The Mansion Gate" and "The Prequel of the Lotus Lantern" are much inferior to it.
Many people speculate that "Latent" has the opportunity to become the third TV series to break the 5-digit mark after "Wulin Gaiden" and "Bright Sword".
However, Sunward internally has cautious opinions on this. Based on their experience, although "Latent" has an amazing momentum, a large part of its current popularity is based on the two hot spots of Sunward drama and Zuo Le's new drama.
Although a few days after it was aired, its reputation has been fermented and the plot has begun to have some influence, but compared with the original "Bright Sword", it is not at the same level.
"Latent" only has 30 episodes and the broadcast period is limited. If it cannot form a phenomenal explosive popularity as quickly as "Bright Sword", it will be difficult to achieve the myth of breaking 5 and 6 ratings.
According to Sunward's internal estimates, the audience for the hot spots brought by the "Latent" Shanhe drama and Zuo Le's new drama will be saturated in the near future. If new high-influence hot spots cannot be formed in the future, the ratings growth is bound to decline.
By then, less than 10 days will definitely not be enough to support "Latent" to break through 5. Even if the rise drops too fast, it is difficult to say whether it can break through 4.
Of course, even so, the results of "Latent" are very amazing. At least it has not ruined the reputation of Zuo Le, the king of TV dramas...
While the ratings of "Latent" were rising all the way, the plot of the drama also began to slowly reach its first climax.
Just as Yu Zecheng and Cuiping were slowly adapting to life at Jinmen Station, Japan surrendered and the Communist Party of China began to hold military mediation meetings. One of the representatives from our party was none other than Yu Zecheng's dreaming leftist.
blue.
At the same time, Lao Yu also received the first order to come to Tianjin.
The list of spies sent by the military unification to contact and monitor our party representatives was handed over to our party, and then our party announced it at the military adjustment meeting. This gave the military unification a severe slap in the face and took advantage of public opinion.
The military commander was counterattacked before he could take action. Station Commander Wu was almost furious. At the same time, he also realized that there might be a traitor at Jinmen Station, so he continued to deal with the military transfer meeting and dug out spies at the same time.
In the meantime, due to the dispute between the deputy webmasters, Lu Qiaoshan and Ma Kui each had their own agendas and planned to use the traitor as a trap for each other. Yu Zecheng took the opportunity to fish in troubled waters and sow discord.
At this time, Jinmen Station discovered the signal of an underground party radio station code-named "Emei Peak". Stationmaster Wu put his suspicious eyes on Ma Kui, Yu Zecheng and other people transferred from Chongqing.
At this time, Maguire made a fatal mistake.
Because he was suspicious of Yu Zecheng, he sent people to follow Yu. When he discovered that Yu Zecheng was getting close to the traitor businessman Mu Liancheng, he thought that something was wrong between them, so he also put Mu Liancheng under surveillance.
Later, when Mu Liancheng escaped, he felt that there was something fishy inside, which might be related to Yu Zecheng, so he took this matter as a clue and told Station Master Wu.
What Ma Kui didn't know was that Yu Zecheng and Mu Liancheng got close because Yu Zecheng blackmailed Mu Liancheng on behalf of Station Commander Wu.
It was a good thing that he didn't mention this matter. When he mentioned it, Lao Wu thought that Ma Kui knew something and immediately felt disgusted and resistant to him.
Just at this time, Boss Dai came to investigate corruption. The frightened Lao Wu and Yu Zecheng colluded to confess. Yu Zecheng took this opportunity to express his loyalty to Lao Wu and gave Ma Kui eye drops.
Later, when Boss Dai failed to investigate the corruption, Yu Zecheng once again revealed the secretly transported war preparation materials to the underground party.
Being cheated twice in a row, Webmaster Wu was going crazy, but before he could make a move, Boss Dai suddenly hung up.
………
There are various theories about how Boss Dai died. It was due to his superior achievements, assassination by our party, revenge from Japan, infighting within the military system, it was purely an accident...
Anyway, Boss Dai died, Station Commander Wu's backer was gone, and just as he made two mistakes before the military transfer meeting, Old Wu panicked and couldn't care whether he caught the traitor or not, so he ran to Chongqing to look out.
As soon as Lao Wu left, Ma Kui was completely high.
Due to the Mu Liancheng incident, Lao Wu found an opportunity to belittle Ma Kui and suppressed the matter. Ma Kui did not know that Lao Wu was corrupt and thought that Lao Wu might have something to do with the underground party, so he prepared to investigate Lao Wu.
Wu.
He found Lao Wu's Secretary Hong, had a lively chat, and prepared to get him drunk. Secretary Hong was very cooperative, and looked at Ma Kui, who was having a heart-to-heart with him, with a complex expression on his face as he drank one glass after another.
When Secretary Hong was drunk, the excited Ma Kui touched the key and went to search Stationmaster Wu's office, but he didn't notice the drunken and charming Secretary Hong muttering softly.
"I'm sorry, Brother Ma, my sister-in-law is too... I... I couldn't control it..."
Ma Kui happily searched Lao Wu's office, but was discovered by Yu Zecheng. The two confronted each other. Ma Kui returned without success, but Yu Zecheng unexpectedly discovered from a document that the military commander was hiding in Yan'an.
An undercover agent, codename [Buddhist niche].
Relying on the relics left by Lao Lu, Yu Zecheng found out who the Buddhist niche was, and asked the underground party to exchange the Buddhist niche for the captured contact manager Qiu Zhanggui.
During the transaction, Yu Zecheng deliberately plotted against Ma Kui, linking him with Zuo Lan step by step, creating a situation where Ma Kui was very close to the underground party, and then left the matter to compete with Ma Kui for the deputy station.
The long land bridge mountain points out.
Lu Qiaoshan had long wanted to take advantage of Ma Kui and took action immediately, while Yu Zecheng stayed away to avoid suspicion.
Ma Kui had a lot of backers, and it was difficult for Lu Qiaoshan to defeat him alone. Yu Zecheng found an opportunity to tell Lao Wu about Ma Kui's office turmoil.
Old Wu was very disgusted with Ma Kui before about the Mu Liancheng incident. Now that he learned that Ma Kui had attacked him, he couldn't bear it.
After all, he was the boss of Jinmen Station. As soon as stationmaster Wu took action, Ma Kui immediately stopped cooking. Lu Qiaoshan promptly "searched" a calligraphy and painting with poems about Emei Peak from Ma Kui's residence.
Stationmaster Wu sneered and said the famous saying: "Emei Peak, you can still take a photo alone, it has a romantic temperament."
In one sentence, Ma Kui was completely branded as an underground party member and became a lost dog.
