2022 dark horse serie.

Finally a series based on people who took part in a titanic project.
The work of builders, the research upstream by planners, is often forgotten by the screenwriters of other nations.

Beautiful OST, filmography, costumes, sets & acting.
You are lucky China, to have many good dramas.

I'm from France, in the 21th century, we only have Podcast style tv series with no logical story - apart from :
-《Kaamelott》;
-《Camera Café》 ;
-《Petits Meurtres En Famille》;
-《Les Petits Meurtres d'Agatha Christie》;
which were very good, but this is so few.

As well as screenwriters & actors who are too ideologized, sadly.
Nobody knows our series since many years because of that.

Stupid drama ? sorry.

Dumbest drama I've ever seen !
And yet I watched series from different nations of Asia, Europe, Americas... from different eras, from black & white to color videos.

Comprehension, Image, Aura & Charisma, are the most important things in front of the camera.
Yang Zi & Xiao Zhan's eyes and expressions reflect 0 intelligence and 0 emotion in their interpretation, as in the official photos of 《The Oath Of Love》.

The job of an actor is to play characters that seem as realistic as possible.
That is to say : to participate in the scenario, give maturity to the dialogue, make it meaningful.

Physically and orally, Yang Zi resembles a young thirtysomething who wants to pretend to be a twenty-year-old but fails.
Xiao Zhan clearly doesn't have acting ability, he feels no empathy.

None of them have personally researched on the thoughts and talks of real doctors, shy students, families dealing with illness, depressed people & couples with an age gap.
However easy with such a simple scenario.

Only the OST were good.

I understand why it took Tencent nearly 3 years to release 《TOOL》.
When the quality is low, there is no rush.

Luckily, Tencent proceeded to do real auditions, & caught up in 2023 with its great science fiction series :
-《Three-Body》.
And that Chinese gem series like :
-《Reset》;
-《Minning Town》;
-《Tian Xia Chang He》;
-《A Lifelong Journey》;
-《Joy Of Life》;
-《The Knockout》;
-《Under The Skin》;
-《Our Times》;
-《Bright Future》;
etc... exist.

I still wish good luck to all the cast ?.

Majestic. Simply.

All actors have played their role wonderfully, especially Rayzha Alimjan & Bai Yufan who are my discovery of 2022.
I look forward to watch their other dramas.

Added to that, good screenwriters, good casting, a good director, the opening & ending OST, the whole team.
《Minning Town》is the Chinese series, even the one in the world that touched me the most.

It's worth 10/10, and I saw that it's going to be released on TV all over West Asia, Central Asia & North Africa.
Well deserved !

Hope for all Continents, but I don't expected France, they never broadcast Asian series here - except Movies.
