Director Liu Jiang’s ＂Security Crisis＂ was released, and the power game relationship between Edward Zhang and Gao Yuanyuan became a mystery.
Recently, produced by iQiyi, Perfect World Film and Television, Beijing Radio and Television Film and Television, and Perfect Pengrui Film and Television jointly produced, the key project of Qiai Studio-the first domestic hard-core anti-espionage drama "Security Crisis" directed by the famous director Liu Jiang, with the strong support and guidance of the Ministry of National Security, has been officially completed after 193 days of intense shooting.
The play is starring Edward Zhang, Gao Yuanyuan, Cao Bingkun, Sunny, Cheng Taishen and Zhaoqi Shi, with Lin Yongjian playing a special role. Producer Gong Yu, co-producer Chi Yufeng, chief producer Wang Xiaohui, Zeng Yingxue and Yang Yufei, chief producer Dai Ying and Wang Tong, chief planner Yang Wenquan, chief producers Zhang Yan and Chen Yanhua, producers Liu Yamin, Luo Xi and Wang Tao, and executive producer Liang Daqian.
As can be seen from the compact and high-burning preview of the drama released on September 27th, the overall style is very hard-core. With the appearance of the main characters, all kinds of action scenes such as gun battles, car wars and blasting are shocking, which stimulates people’s sensory nerves. Yang Guang, a national security policeman played by Edward Zhang, has many plots of chasing the enemy and fighting in close quarters, and the real feeling of boxing to meat is very tense. The most surprising thing is that Gao Yuanyuan, the "goddess", also has action scenes in the picture. On weekdays, she is beautiful and elegant, showing such a cool side and full of freshness. Zhao Yazhu, who is played by her, is sometimes full of amorous feelings and sometimes heroic. This highly contrasting change also implies that her identity is complicated. Although the real film is not seen, the hot and cool scenes and the intricate relationship between the characters are enough to hang your appetite! Through the statistics in the preview, we also know that "Security Crisis" not only lasted for 193 days, but also consisted of 2,099 plays and 620T materials, and there were as many as 468 scenes, with 29 starring roles and 345 staff members, which shows that the workload is huge and the process is difficult. Now the play has been successfully completed, and all the creators have worked tirelessly to forge fine works.
Shooting in 193 days, unveiling the mystery of nuclear safety for the first time
In recent years, with the continuous enhancement of China’s comprehensive national strength and profound changes in the international strategic pattern, the conspiracies of western hegemonic countries to suppress and undermine China’s rise have become more rampant, and national security has been threatened, especially the national nuclear power technology, which represents high-end and top-secret technology, has encountered unprecedented impact. At present, China’s nuclear power is entering a new stage of large-scale accelerated development, so ensuring nuclear safety is an inevitable requirement for safeguarding national security.
In response to the new situation and new problems faced by China’s anti-espionage struggle, Security Crisis focuses on the technical security of national nuclear power, with the national security personnel as the main line to defend nuclear security and the struggle with foreign spy organizations as the main line to start the story. This is the first film and television work focusing on nuclear safety in China, which is closely related to the pulse of the times and has lofty ideas.
Faced with the proposition of this era, the whole group went all out. As early as before the start of the script, the creators did a lot of work. They almost searched the real spy materials and related historical materials at home and abroad aimed at China’s security in recent years, and combined with the personal experiences of many national security police officers on the hidden front, they chose from a large number of cases to create literature and art. In order to truly restore this secret battlefield, the crew specially selected Qingdao and Weihai to shoot, and rebuilt it on the abandoned office site of the National Security Bureau, restoring the original work of the national security personnel one by one, enhancing the actor’s sense of belief, and even pursuing the authenticity of the plot, the crew specially went to a nuclear power plant for filming, revealing the real appearance of the nuclear power plant for the audience for the first time. Really achieved the script is true to follow, the framing is strong, and it satisfies the audience’s multiple feelings of watching the drama at one time, such as curiosity, fresh vision and strong sense of substitution.
Director Liu Jiang opens up a new perspective and writes a new chapter of anti-espionage under the melody of the times.
"Security Crisis" is a major breakthrough in content, shouldering multiple missions such as popular science knowledge, realizing theme innovation, paying tribute to unsung heroes, and transmitting positive values. Such an arduous task is undertaken by Liu Jiang, the director of "Grand Slam" and his gold medal team. Director Liu Jiang is a household name. He has won the Best Director Award of Feitian, Golden Eagle, Magnolia, Chun Yan and other important awards for many times, and his works have won the Best TV Drama Award of Feitian, Golden Eagle, Magnolia and other national TV drama awards. It was undoubtedly a reassurance to the audience that he operated the knife himself.
Directing the contemporary national security theme for the first time, director Liu Jiang showed professional foresight, just as when filming Before Dawn, he abandoned the traditional spy war techniques, injected new styles and characters into his works, and opened up a new direction for the traditional spy war drama. In "Security Crisis", he has a broader vision, closely follows the current new international situation, tries to restore the "intelligence war" launched by various foreign forces against China in secret based on real cases, and boldly uses a number of foreign actors to shoot in a novel way of "using the original sound in situ" according to local conditions. In this way, the cases have their own characteristics, the characters have their own origins, the plot is true and credible, and the audience has a stronger sense of substitution and immersion.
Director Liu Jiang strives for perfection in all aspects: in terms of the authenticity of the content, the drama invites relevant consultants to check the whole process, and strives to make every case and every plot stand; In the plot setting, following the creative principle of "big things are not empty, small things are not limited", director Liu Jiang opened up the artistic creation space with fascinating stories, compact brain-burning plots and vivid characters under the rigid framework of the case. What is even more surprising is that the play will show a lot of spy means and techniques, which are unprecedented and worth looking forward to; In terms of shooting details, he is carefully polished and repeatedly scrutinized, even without time or cost. It is reported that in the process of shooting, he abandoned all the contents in front of the screen because of the addition of a computer. It can be seen that this detail control director can’t tolerate even a trace of flaws, and this pursuit and persistence in art is admirable.
Edward Zhang Gao Yuanyuan premiered Guoan drama, and the drama bones gathered on the same stage.
High-quality works can’t be separated from the blessing of excellent actors. The male and female protagonists of Security Crisis, Yang Guang and Zhao Yazhu, are led by powerful actors Edward Zhang and Gao Yuanyuan respectively. As first-line stars with high national standards, Edward Zhang and Gao Yuanyuan have created many classic characters on the screen, which are deeply loved by the audience. This is their first time to try the theme of national security, and the brand-new screen image will undoubtedly bring surprises to the audience.
In the play, Edward Zhang plays the role of Yang Guang, the deputy director of the Third Division of Guoan. From his role, we can see that he is a defender of national security, and his image is absolutely positive, which is very consistent with Edward Zhang’s calm and determined personality. In order to play this role well, Edward Zhang is very serious. Every scene and every line are carefully pondered, even regardless of input. In the director’s remake because of a computer, he is the happiest. Like the director, he is also "sand in his eyes", and quality is above everything else in their eyes.
"Security Crisis" is Gao Yuanyuan’s first spy image work, which is a brand-new challenge. Director Liu Jiang gave a very high evaluation of her performance in the play, calling it "brilliant". For this role, Gao Yuanyuan herself loved it very much. When she bid farewell to the role, she wrote a letter with sincere feelings between the lines. After reading it, the director could not help feeling that "she wrote more sincerely than the screenwriter." At this time, she seems to have integrated with the role.
The addition of powerful actors Cao Bingkun, Sunny, Cheng Taishen, Zhaoqi Shi and Lin Yongjian can be described as icing on the cake. They are all "old acquaintances" of the audience. They have excellent acting skills and have created many impressive roles on the screen. This time, the lineup of the acting school assembled "Security Crisis", which injected thickness into the plot performance and doubled the audience’s expectations.
In addition, the drama also assembled Hou Yansong, Shi Jingming, Zhong Wenguan, Yu Jiwei, Wu Yihan, Wu Jun, Jin Tiefeng, Fudiyoujie, Zhu Hongjia, Ju Jiang, Lv Xin, Sugiyama Youmei, Ke Guoqing, Wang Zhihua, Yang Qing, Wang Peilu, Xu Guangyu, Luo Guangxu, Yao Gang, Li Zongqi and Lin Aofei. It is worth mentioning that in order to ensure the authenticity of the plot, the drama invited many foreign actors to participate, which I believe will make the audience have a strong sense of substitution after broadcasting.
"Security Crisis" was born in response to the times, with lofty ideas, steady and steady script, authentic content, thrilling plot, unique production, novel and changeable style, and high-profile actors who gathered the gold medal production team, not only shouldered the corresponding social responsibilities, but also observed the audience’s appreciation and taste of the drama. It is definitely the most anticipated blockbuster next year. At present, "Security Crisis" has been finished, and it has entered the intense post-production in an all-round way. It is expected to meet the audience next year, so let us wait and see.
