"The Republic of the Republic of China Detective" of the summer breakthrough password

A train stopped in the snowstorm, several passengers with "ghosts", and a suspense "destruction tragedy" ...

The story of "Detective of the Republic of China" starts from this train. The play is adapted from Agasha Christie's "Detective Polo" series of novels. It places the turbulent cases in the background of the Republic of China. 8 inside reference stories.

Since its launch, "The Great Detective of the Republic of China" has still occupied a notal market share in the summer stall with a fierce drama. On the first day of the launch, I got a heat value of nearly 8,000 on the iQiyi platform. Yunhe data showed that the market share and the public opinion index of "The Great Detective of the Republic of China" entered the top ten of the list. "Hu Yitian Zhang Yunlong explore The topic continued "and" "The Great Detective Harbin Group" and other topics such as "the Republic of China Detective Harbin Group" also took turns on Weibo hot search, which caused heated discussion among the audience.

"Detective of the Republic of China" retains the successful experience of "The Strange Detective of the Republic of China", and at the same time, the decisive decisiveness of "take a step forward". On the one hand, it continues the main configuration of director Zhang Weike, actor Hu Yitian, and Zhang Yunlong, and follows the fast -paced, strong plot unit to explore the case mode; on the other hand, it has made it in the localization adaptation of the case and the framework of the bonus reasoning framework. Trying forward, this is an important reason why it has become a "dark horse" in the summer file.

The birth of the localization "great detective"

Fast -pace is the first impression of "Detective of the Republic of China" to the audience.

At the beginning of the first episode, from the shooting of the railway station to the conflict in court, in just five minutes, the protagonist "Situ Yan" realized the dilemma of justice with law. Subsequently, through a conflict on the breakfast stall, the encounter and acquaintance of "Situ Yan" and another protagonist "Luo Shaochuan". In just half episodes, the "Situ Yan" can break the case and the agile skills of "Luo Shaochuan" jumped on the screen.

The next case is based on a rocket -like speed. On average, every three episodes tell a case, there is no extra branch plot and complicated emotional entanglement. For visitors, this rhythm is the most comfortable, and it is also the best interpretation method for the reasoning of Benge. After experiencing the previous "Republic of China Exploration", the team's control of this rhythm has been quite mature.

For example, in the "Murder of the Richest Manor", due to the constant appearance of the new clues, the identity of the suspect was extremely unclear, and the plot kept reversing. The evidence that is deducted from a ring one also forms a complete "case of solving the case" logic chain.

After the suspense in recent years, social reasoning, as a type of reasoning that can reflect real topics and reflects the profound humanity, is loved by suspense themes, but "The Great Detective of the Republic of China" chose to challenge the "Benge reasoning "". Compared with social reasoning that emphasizes the inner emotions, Benge's reasoning enthusiasts are more concerned about the reasoning process of the case, and look forward to obtaining a sense of substitution and "refreshing" from it.

Generally speaking, the plot with high density and rapid development can easily make the audience feel tired. "Detective of the Republic of China" found the way to dissolve this feeling. On the one hand, the eight core cases presented in the form are intertwined with the growth story of the protagonist, so that the content of the episode has a certain coherence. With the joining of the music teacher "Zhou Mowan", the solid "broken case of the case" has also been formed; on the other hand, the two actors are full of comedy interaction and small cases interspersed in the main cases. The role.

Because the original "Detective Polo" is one of Agatha's extremely well -known works. How to better land on the ground and combine with the background of the Republic of China to make classic stories have new charm, it is not easy. Dai Ying, senior vice president of iQiyi and the chief producer of the "Detective of the Republic of China", told Poisonous Eye (ID: DOMOREDUMOUMOU). Starting from the previous transnational communication, the creative process is facing great challenges. Differences in all aspects must also be considered the degree of acceptance of the original powder on film and television.

"The audience who are familiar with Agatha's works know that her suspense novels will not directly describe the scene of the crime, but to show a complete case through the hero's analysis, restoration, and misplaced design with time and space. This is the biggest of the novel. The charm also puts forward higher requirements for our production team on art, details, and logic, and must be highly rigorous. "Dai Ying said," We must respect the original work to the greatest extent and respect Agansa's novel background. "

Choosing the background of the story in Harbin is the first idea of ​​localization. In the context of the Republic of China, Harbin is almost the city that can accommodate the "exotic style". The cold climate has enveloped the previous layer of suspense, and it also brings more room for creative space to the scene.

Dai Ying said: "Harbin in the Republic of China was known as the" Oriental Paris ", and there were immigrants from more than 50 countries around the world. They were influenced by the culture of immigration. Provide a different background for film and television creation. It can be seen from the core environment of the "Richest Manor Murder Case" that a gorgeous exotic estate appears here and does not seem abrupt.

The deeper "localization adaptation" logic is to bring a stronger sense of substitution through the combination of our familiar history. In the "Oriental Train" murder case, the Russian princesses, Swedish ladies and other characters in the original work have become diplomats who enjoy exemption, soldiers who retired in warlords, female students, etc., and each of them, each of them, also They were all linked to the turbulent social background at the time, and the story was transplanted to China around 1920. Although the detailed localization and re -creation is carried out, the core of not losing the original work is the key to the success of the "Detective of the Republic of China".

First of all, it is to retain the core "tricks", that is, the reasoning process, which is not only the subtleties of Agaha's works, but also the most important part of reasoning enthusiasts. But more importantly is to retain the core values ​​of the work. Behind the "Oriental Express Murder" is the extreme presentation of legal and human conflict. With the fact that the legal system is not sound, how to deal with the "criminal criminal search". In the play, "Situ Yan" has made the correct choice that he thinks, which is not only in line with the background of the times, but also respect for the original story.

The narrative rhythm of the more "net sense", the unexpected anti -routing plot, and the localization adaptation of loyalty to the original work, not only make "The Republic of China Detective" a "dark horse" of the summer file of the episode, but also proves this creative idea Effectiveness: firmly grasp the core needs of the target audience, and jump out of the original creative framework to tell the story that makes the audience a more sense of substitution.

Think a little more, take more steps

In March 2020, the broadcast of "The Strange of the Republic of China" made many audiences shine. Total producer Dai Ying once mentioned that when he first came into contact with the script of the show, he felt the chemical reactions of the three label combinations of suspense, reasoning and comedy, and high -density cases. Experience.

After two years, Zhang Weike, Zhang Yunlong, and Hu Yitian were the main creations of "The Strange Exploration of the Republic of China", and once again staged a story of the country's explorer. In this process, there are both inheritance and continuity, as well as breakthroughs and innovations.

"Exploration of the Republic of China"

The formula of the "Republic of China+Suspense of Cases+Unit" has been proven to be valid. The old and new periods of the Republic of China are undoubtedly suitable for telling the legendary story, which is why the drama of the Republic of China has always been in the market. As mentioned earlier, the form of the unit can not only accommodate more cases, but also meet the needs of contemporary audiences. Coupled with the tacit understanding of Zhang Yunlong and Hu Yitian in the "Exploration of the Republic of China", they all laid a good foundation for "Detective of the Republic of China".

However, the "Exploration of the Republic of China" and "Detective of the Republic of China" are two different series, not the "sequel". Dai Ying mentioned that the style of "The Republic of China" is lighter comedy and younger, and "Detective of the Republic of China" is a series of more stable and heavier inferences. As the first film and television adaptation authorized by the Agansa series in the Chinese region, this is a challenge, but it is an attempt to help the type of visits of the Republic of China.

In addition, the two actors' settings are also different from the "Exploration of the Republic of China" and therefore produced a special chemical reaction. "Situ Yan" played by Hu Yitian after experiencing a series of incidents, he lost his qualifications to become a lawyer and became a "detective". This design is the result of "retaining the original setting and localization".

As the characters who hatched the same creation team, although "Situ Yan" and "Lu Yan" have "the strongest brain", they also retain the calm and calm temperament of Polo, and the character that upholds justice and jurisdiction. "Luo Shaochuan" became the combination of Captain Hebinsinis and Jepu in the original book. Not only did they join forces to solve the case, they also gradually achieved reconciliation with their own dilemma.

This summer's summer stall is still lively, and behind the "Dagua of the Republic of China" becomes the "dark horse" of the summer file, it shows the logic of iQiyi's drama selection.

After the episode market entered the era of circles, several popular episodes have a relatively fixed successful paradigm and mainstream creative direction. In this case, although innovation may bring unexpected results, it also means that it also means Undertake higher risks.

The transformation of type dramas in the content of iQiyi is often not a big stagnant, but on the basis of retaining the attractiveness of the type, taking a small step forward.

"Detective of the Republic of China", as a drama of the Republic of China, introduced the European reasoning story in Agaha's pen as a blueprint. On the basis of retaining the core charm of the Ben Ge's reasoning, it brings new new stories to classic stories with localized adaptation. Perspective, this is also the creative idea of ​​iQiyi summer episodes.

The "Basic Law of Genius", which just ended the last day, chose to see the "mathematicians" who are not common in domestic dramas. While innovating the subject matter, through strengthening the line of affection, reaching real topics related to intergenerational relations, reaching the intergenerational relationship. In the process of interpreting the "genius", the collision of different educational concepts was displayed; the recently broadcast "Cang Lan Jue" has explored more possibilities of oriental fantasy themes of Oriental fantasy with the "Cang Lan Jue" of "Cang Lan Jue". Sexual, "Cang Lan Jue Fantasy Aesthetics" and "Cang Lan Jue Special Effect" and other topics have been on Weibo hot search, creating a visual feast.

"Airlines Kunlun Market" is also a new attempt in the adventure treasure hunting track. The design of the "group portrait of the rivers and lakes" and the layers of reversal have brought a new experience to the audience; Late broadcast, continuing the first "female group portrait", telling the story of several protagonists after entering the society.
