Taken together, the drama linkage phenomenon in the Korean and American drama markets focuses more on the brand effect of the drama. By allowing different dramas to interact and continue the nostalgia of the drama, it retains fans of the drama. More importantly, the drama linkage phenomenon has also become the IP of different dramas. The brand identity gives the drama IP a distinctive feature.
The content linkage of domestic dramas has only appeared in recent years, either through "drama-film linkage" or "film-drama linkage" to increase the popularity of the drama.
However, it is worth noting that in addition to creating IP, this linkage method also has some potential disadvantages behind it, that is, if it is too strong, the plots of different dramas will overlap, and forced mutual promotion will risk arousing the audience's resentment.
However, the current phenomenon of TV series linkage still has more advantages than disadvantages. It can help different video platforms gain user traffic, increase the attention of the drama, and gain more potential viewers.
The White Night universe created by Django has linked up to seven movies. This is a situation that has not promoted the Chinese drama "Psychological Crime", the Korean drama "Monster", the Japanese drama "Unnatural Death" and the American drama "Basic Acting".
The more linked dramas there are, the harder it is to insert content, because it is very difficult to find a suitable entry point for unrelated stories, locations, and characters.
In "Corpse Talk", the traces of "forced insertion" are slightly obvious. The good thing is that the setting of "Q" and the actors' acting skills make the audience ignore this problem.
Chen Qian is the best example. The "anticlimactic" feeling just now disappeared the moment the man in black appeared.
There are many like him.
"Isn't it a little hasty for Q to show up in this way?"
"It's a bit hasty, but why should Gao Yanan and Li Dabao be arrested?"
"Is it for Guan Hongyu and Qin Ming?"
"Have you noticed that Q is looking for people with high IQs?"
"Han Bin, Qin Feng, Qin Ming... this is really the case."
"What on earth is Q going to do!"
…
When the creative team of "Detective Chinatown 2" was interviewed, media reporters asked many times who "Q" was, and director Huang Tao answered again and again: "Actually, like you, I don't know the identity of Q. Maybe some viewers I have already guessed the right direction, but the correct answer will not be revealed until "Detective Chinatown 3" is released."
Django has also been asked several times, and his answer is: "As a mystery series, especially an Easter egg that has been buried for so long, its best result is that it is a little smarter than the audience, and it is reasonable and predictable. outside.”
In short, all the current clues cannot accurately guess who Q is.
At this moment, the barrage and questions in the final episode of "Corpse Talk" are all manifestations of the audience's appetite and curiosity being aroused by the biggest mystery in the White Night Universe [Q's true face and purpose].
"Reveal your face!"
Chen Qian was a little excited in front of the computer.
as if,
The answer is at hand.
【"Bah..."
Suddenly, the harsh sound of sliding iron cables was heard.
Qin Ming looked past the man in black and saw Gao Yanan and Li Dabao falling rapidly. Below was a sharp iron fence. Zhou Xun and Lin Tao grabbed the iron ropes from left to right, but there were counterweights hanging on them. How can it be pulled by human power?
In the blink of an eye, the chain stopped sliding.
"Who are you?"
Qin Ming asked with a frown.
Obviously, the key figure in saving Gao Yanan and Li Dabao is the man in black in front of them.
The man in black did not answer.
I saw him slowly pulling down his hood and tearing off his mask, revealing his true appearance.
"It's you!"
Qin Ming recognized him at a glance as the suspect in this serial murder case.
"ah!"
glutinous rice
At the same time, the iron rope fell a little further, scaring Gao Yanan and Li Dabao to scream.
"Don't come here!"
The man in black opened his mouth to stop Zhou Xun and Lin Tao who were about to come over. He then unzipped his jacket and revealed a timer, which showed 2 minutes and 41 seconds. He raised the corner of his mouth and said with an evil smile: "There is something in front of you. Two options, the cable's reel is connected to my pacemaker. Only when I die will the cable stop falling and watch them die, or kill me."]
Chen Qian raised his eyebrows, a little confused.
Putting aside whether this man in black is Q, why is he doing this?
Lure Qin Ming into committing a crime?
But what does it matter whether Qin Ming committed a crime or not?
Or is it just a mental abnormality?
But the design of this plot cannot be so simple.
Suddenly, many questions came to Chen Qian's mind. He couldn't figure it out and was still confused.
He couldn't help but sigh, if only Django were here, he could ask.
[Hearing this, Qin Ming cursed: "You madman, why should I kill you!"
The man in black smiled and said: "I am a heinous person. I have five lives on my hands, and each of them died miserably. If I are captured, I will be sentenced to death. You are enforcing justice by killing me."
When Qin Ming heard this, he immediately refused: "I am not qualified to enforce justice."
"No, no, no." The man in black shook his finger and said with a hint of meaning: "You are qualified. This is much easier than finding out your father's death."
Qin Ming seemed to have thought of something and understood something.
At the end of the roof, Zhou Xun and Lin Tao couldn't hear their conversation. They wanted to get closer to the man in black when they weren't paying attention, but they were discovered.
"Don't come here!"
As soon as the man in black finished speaking, the iron rope dropped a little distance again, and then stood at the edge of the building, saying: "Don't hesitate, Qin Ming, I am a sinner, give me a gentle push, and you can save the two women over there. !”
Seeing that Qin Ming was silent, he pointed to the number on the timer and said: "Time is running out. You are now the 'god' who can decide good and evil, life and death. Don't hesitate, Qin Ming, choose!"]
At this time, the soundtrack became weird, and the close-up of the camera showed Qin Ming staring at the man in black.
"Fuck!"
Chen Qian suddenly remembered what Song Yi said to Qin Feng at the end of "Detective Chinatown 2", "When you stare into the abyss, the abyss is also staring at you." Goosebumps suddenly appeared on his body.
Song Yi, the man in black, Q, there must be some kind of relationship between them!
If this is the case, then Q may have started planning from the 213 massacre in the first season of "White Night", and this plan can be found in all movies and TV series.
Chen Qian couldn't help but swallowed his saliva and thought to himself: Django, Django, your game of chess is too big!
[At the critical moment, the police car siren sounded, and the police who came to support arrived.
Seeing that the man in black's attention was diverted, Zhou Xun and Lin Tao rushed over as quickly as possible.
At the same time, the timer is about to return to zero.
Under everyone's gaze, Qin Ming reached out to the man in black, and the man in black fell backwards and fell from the roof. 】
The scene freezes and the ending song plays.
"What the hell?"
Chen Qian's eyes widened.
That's right,
Only half of the story was told, and the other half was put into the second season of "Forensic Qin Ming".
In fact, this part of the plot is a scene from the original "Detective Chinatown 3". What Jiang Ge thought was that he would be filming his own "Detective Chinatown 3" anyway, so he didn't need to use it in vain.
