  Strong suspense, "Sadomasochism" CP is good

After encountering a sudden predicament, she meets the mysterious lawyer Gao Jun (played by Peng Guanying). A story of overcoming difficulties together.

The story begins with Ruan Zhenzhen’s husband, Xu Youning, having an accidental car accident and leaving behind huge debts, which leads to more doubts in the follow-up: Was Xu Youning’s accident a pure accident or someone else’s premeditation, and he borrowed huge amounts of money from his wife The whereabouts, whether Dong Wan, the chairman of Xu Youning's company, is good or bad, and who is behind him...

  The story of "Unexpected Arrival" is complicated and confusing, and many details come from some real events in life.

Ruan Zhenzhen is an ignorant "little princess" in the eyes of outsiders. After her marriage, her husband Xu Youning took good care of her, and Ruan Zhenzhen became a housewife, but all of this disappeared with Xu Youning's accidental death.

The setting of this kind of narrative background is based on the director’s observation of life, “In recent years, I have heard things like the death of my husband, the death of my relatives, and suddenly leaving a large debt. This itself has some mysterious, Suspenseful temperament." Director Yan Yutong said.

  The male and female protagonists are still the two familiar faces of "Under the Sun" this time. In "Under the Sun", the male and female protagonists have a relationship of "control" and "anti-control". Relationships are richer.

At the beginning, Gao Jun and Ruan Zhenzhen were also a kind of "control" and "anti-control", but then they went through the process of guarding, approaching, eliminating misunderstandings, strong feelings, and opening their hearts. The relationship between the characters is complicated and diverse. The two protagonists also have obvious differences. growth arc.

  The emotional line setting of the male and female protagonists is still "sadomasochism".

In the play, another male protagonist Tan Shen pretends to be Gao Jun to help the female protagonist Ruan Zhenzhen. On the one hand, he helps Ruan Zhenzhen as a lawyer to deal with the huge debt dispute left by Xu Youning; Using, even using unconventional means, slowly fell in love with her in the process of using her.

This kind of "sadomasochism" of probing each other in the conversation and confrontation, and making fake plays for real has attracted many viewers.

  The suspense remains the same, but the narrative angle changes

  After the broadcast of "Unexpectedly Arrived", many book fans who have read the original "Under the Sun" "Things in the Palm" said that the broadcast of this sequel has realized the two-way rush of the crew and book fans.

Many scenes in the first 6 episodes of the play are "revisiting" "Under the Sun", such as the same traffic light intersection, red car, and water handing shots, and even Fu Huadao is very similar, and the setting of the male protagonist is still the same. A person who is proficient in the law, but in "Under the Sun" it is "abuse and love the heroine" under control, while in "Unexpectedly Arrived" it is "protecting the heroine" under control.

  "Under the Sun" depicts the whole process of the heroine from being at a loss, trying to solve it, to dealing with the evil forces with ease, and what is shown is full of "serious case group six", that is, the sense of sight.

In "Unexpected Arrival", Ruan Zhenzhen solved the financial conspiracy step by step. Although there were doubts, fears and repetitions, and the middle part of the plot was somewhat distorted, it finally told the growth of a housewife.

In the view of screenwriter Fresh Orange, "Unexpected Arrival" should be defined as a story about women's struggles, "When the 'luxury house' is broken, how do the 'dolls' who have been kept in captivity for many years struggle to survive, and recover their wildness and harmony through painful struggles." Fighting spirit, find yourself step by step." As an urban emotional drama with a suspense theme, "Unexpected Arrival" mainly shows the heroine Ruan Zhenzhen struggling, getting lost, sinking in adversity, and finally going to resist and save herself in a suspenseful atmosphere. Road, although compared with "Under the Sun", the drama's sense of criminal investigation has been weakened, but the plot of "Unexpectedly Arrived" is equally high-energy and exciting.

  "Unexpectedly Arrived" combines women, family and suspense elements, which is very common in many suspense dramas broadcast in recent years.

For example, "The Disappearing Child" starts with the disappearance of a child, involving the life problems of different residents in the same building; topics such as marriage.

This creative direction has opened up more diverse narrative methods for the theme of "suspense + urban emotion".
