is adapted from Cai Jun's suspense novel "One Hundred and Twenty Days of Peeping". It also has a good cast of actors such as Qin Junjie , Deng Jiajia , Liu Huan , Li Meng and other actors. With the company's lineup, " Babel " has attracted great attention from many viewers, especially loyal fans of suspense dramas, since its launch.

This drama has indeed put a lot of effort into suspense. A sudden and bizarre "floating corpse case" occurred in the moat of Haigang City, causing criminal police captain Lu Xiao (played by Qin Junjie) to be deeply involved. The suspect "Water Ghost" not only possesses extremely strong anti-reconnaissance capabilities, but also possesses diving abilities that exceed human limits, which troubled Lu Xiao and his comrades.

On the other side, ballet dancer Cui Shan (played by Deng Jiajia) was imprisoned by an unidentified man in black. Why was she imprisoned, and what is her inextricable connection with the "Floating Corpse Case"? This drama adopts a two-line narrative method. The plots on both sides develop independently and echo each other. The suspense is indeed one after another.

The Tower of Babel, also known as the Tower of Babel, or the Tower of Babel. In this play, the Tower of Babel is also a new project to be developed by female entrepreneur Cheng Lijun. Coincidentally, Cheng Lijun is the owner of Cui Shan's ballet company, and the next target that the water ghost wants to attack is also Cheng Lijun. It seems that the two narrative clues are about to intersect on Cheng Lijun, and the puzzles will be solved one by one.

"Tower of Babel" wants to tell more than just a simple crime. The man in black's peeping on Cui Shan, Cui Shan's growth experience from childhood to adulthood, the ulterior secret behind Cheng Lijun's construction of the Tower of Babel, and the intricate relationships between the various characters in this drama all point to the complexity and elusiveness of human nature. . Judging from Cai Jun's original work, the story of "Tower of Babel" undoubtedly contains not only the sin of murder, but also the healing of mutual redemption between people. I believe that the upcoming climax of the TV series will give the audience Bring a different experience.

However, perhaps to create a suspenseful atmosphere, or perhaps to prevent the foreshadowing from being exposed in advance, the early narrative of "Tower of Babel" is relatively fragmented, often making it unclear to the audience and making it difficult to resonate emotionally. As for the protagonist Lu Xiao, although it is true that he is a wise and courageous criminal policeman, the play is full of jumping and fighting, which has a superhero feel, and the long chase scene seems unnecessary. The overall result is that the audience feels out of place.

This may be a common problem faced by current suspense dramas. A drama series can set up a good suspense and have a relatively profound theme, but how to tell a story satisfactorily and well has become a difficulty that many works cannot overcome. Since "The Hidden Corner" and "The Silent Truth" triggered the craze of suspense dramas, many dramas have had luxurious casts and extremely attractive concepts and gimmicks, but in fact, the successful ones are There are only a few, and this cannot help but lead to reflection - suspense dramas need to be improved to a higher level.

Take "Tower of Babel" as an example, the important thing is not to impatiently place one suspense in front of the audience, but to express the theme of the drama as early and clearly as possible. Otherwise, although the suspense is very It's enough, but the audience may not stick around until the end. However, as long as you can maintain enough patience, the answer to the mystery of "Tower of Babel" is still worth looking forward to. At the moment when the truth is revealed, the audience can understand the true meaning of "Tower of Babel".
