Reflections after watching the TV series "Surgical Storm 1"
For a long time, industry dramas have been regarded as the "weakness" of domestic TV dramas. The lack of deep understanding of the industry environment and industry spirit, superficial case analysis, and inaccuracies in professional terminology and professional actions have been criticized. Whether "Surgery" created by the "Conscience Team" Noon Sunshine can break out of the mold of medical dramas and reproduce the reputation of the "Virgo" team in professionalism has always been the focus of attention in the industry. However, the show also has professional flaws and reviews such as "a suspense drama under the guise of a medical treatment" and "a modern version of "Langya Bang"". In an exclusive interview with a reporter from Beijing Morning Post, director Li Xue did not completely deny the idea of ??"cloaking it as medical treatment", but at the same time said that although the two have spiritual similarities, the stories are completely different. "Langya" "List" is more idealistic.
In terms of the quality of medical dramas, the gap between American dramas and domestic dramas is obvious. "ER", "Grey's Anatomy", "House", etc. are highly praised, while the reputation of "The Mentalist", "Young Doctor", "Obstetrician" and others have plummeted. Only one "Obstetrician" It saved the face of domestic medical dramas.
Li Xue said bluntly that before filming started, he had watched some foreign medical dramas, such as "Emergency Room Story" and the relatively niche "Black Alert", and he liked the fast pace of the latter very much. As for domestic medical dramas, he hasn’t watched them very much. We consulted with medical consultants, and they said that medical treatment is updated every four years, or in other words, it is updated. Looking at the medical dramas from previous years, they are already outdated to some extent. Medical methods, medical concepts, and medical systems are all constantly changing. "Heart Technique" is about four or five years old now. We don't want to look for a previous successful case to learn from. We just want to focus on the concepts that some current creators want to express about medical care. ?
Suspense, revenge, emotion? When these elements are mixed in a medical drama, netizens will inevitably question the creator’s expression and professionalism, especially when there is a male protagonist in the drama. The idol drama routine of the heroine being both a colleague and a roommate? I discussed this drama with the screenwriter Zhu Zhu. Is it a medical drama or an emotional drama? Some people say it is "covered in a medical guise". I don't completely deny it, just describe it. The original life of a doctor is not our original intention. ?In order to make the routine more rational, the crew paid more attention to many details. For example, Lu Chenxi’s house is in a faculty dormitory of a university. If Zhuang Shu wants to work in a hospital, the nearest house must be the most suitable. Moreover, the decoration of the house is nice and large, so this house is still tempting to him.
It is said that medical dramas are difficult to film, but what exactly is the difficulty? From the director’s point of view, the inconvenience of filming is the biggest difficulty. Li Xue gave the simplest example, "It's impossible for me to go to Union Medical College Hospital and Peking University Third Hospital to shoot, because there are too many people." ?But the filming required a specific environment, so we had to do something special. ?The scenes in the operating room were filmed for 10 days. For 9 days, the door of the operating room could not be opened. The shots of the door opening could only be Finished shooting in one day. ?In addition, the number of people entering the operating room is also strictly limited. ?At first, the hospital only allowed 12 of us to enter. I said sorry that I couldn't finish it, because in addition to the actors standing on the operating table, we also had some staff Must be present. In the end, the hospital allowed 18 of us to shoot in the operating room. Finally, all the nurses in the operating room are little girls wearing costumes and makeup, and the doctors can only be played by the executive director and assistant director. ?During the filming process, there was no extracorporeal circulation machine, an expensive equipment necessary for cardiac surgery, and we could only rely on the prop man to suck the blood through his mouth to create a sense of blood flow.
Furthermore, there are a large number of professional terms that are too difficult to memorize. ?Our medical consultant, Mr. Han Cunyi (thoracic surgeon at Peking University International Hospital), can speak up to 40 words when he opens his mouth. We may only be able to speak a few words. The professionalism in the industry is the most difficult to overcome and must be overcome. of. Although we made mistakes and bugs, I admit it, but I tried my best and took it seriously. ?
Even with the reputation of a "conscience team", it is still difficult to avoid professional flaws when dealing with a medical subject for the first time. However, compared with the 9% saline solution in "Young Doctor" that was criticized for making pickles and the "Male Obstetrician" who used bare hands to touch the frequency of fetal heart rate, most of the unprofessionalism in "Surgery" is concentrated in surgery. Wearing gloves before violates aseptic operation? And other small details.
Li Xue admitted, "Some of them are due to the fact that in the dramatic expression or editing process, I may have paid too much attention to the beauty of the lens and the good angles, and ignored the guidance of the medical consultant." But I don’t think these things are enough to obliterate, or overturn, the theme and aesthetic value of this play. ?
Regarding the statement that Lu Chenxi’s character is unrealistic and will not survive three episodes in the palace drama, Li Xue laughed and said that she is the real version of Lu Chenxi. This character is exaggerated and idealized. . In fact, Renhe Hospital is also an ideal hospital. We are really not describing the reality of any hospital. It is a complex of many hospitals, maybe a bit like the countryside in "Country Love". ?
In addition to the naive, brainless and upright girl Lu Chenxi, there is also the mature, rational and responsible "great doctor" Zhuang Shu, a gray figure who walks between hospitals and drug dealers. Yang Fan (Director of Thoracic Surgery of Renhe Hospital); and Fu Bowen (Director of Renhe Hospital) who subjectively refuses to give up the scalpel but continues to practice medicine regardless of his health, objectively causing danger to patients? Whether he is a decent, villain, or gray Characters, all characters follow a bottom line, no matter how much power struggle they have, no matter how much one person hates another person, for example, Zhuang Shu thought that Fu Bowen was the person responsible for his mother's medical accident, but he would still cooperate with him to stand up On the operating table? Each character has multiple sides, but they will not give up their professional ethics and professional ethics. ? Comments after watching the TV series "Surgical Storm 2"
I climbed up excitedly to update. I just watched the latest 18 and 19 episodes with my mother. Come up and change the rating! 5 stars! This meeting held by the leaders of the National Health and Family Planning Commission must be 5 stars! It’s so similar, so real! I’m so excited that I can’t find the adjectives to express my admiration and will only use too much!
< p>I have always believed that a medical drama is not for health education, nor is it an examination of major public health issues. A film and television series that can focus on the practical problems of medical work, try its best to show one side of the medical community, show the problems that may or even have occurred in our work, show the emergencies that may be faced in the clinic, and our helplessness and entanglement , what we can and cannot do in the rules is sincerity, and it is also a tribute in a sense. The specific conditions of hospitals at all levels in different places are different, and it is impossible to 100% meet everyone's psychological expectations, but as long as you are willing to pay attention to these issues , then I am grateful. And for me, this expectation was fulfilled perfectly.Regarding episodes 18 and 19, you may be more concerned about the relationship progress between Zhuang Shu and Lu Chenxi. It is true that the sense of CP is coming out. Lu Chenxi’s growth can be seen, and Professor Zhuang is the perfect male god. But my mother and I pay more attention to the details of the college committee. My mother is a pediatrician and a fan of Jin Dong. She likes spoiler diagnoses and professional habits. We pay more attention to the relationship between the Health and Family Planning Commission, the university-affiliated hospital and the university. The filming is very real, and it is also a very cruel reality. I also hope that viewers who have watched this series understand that hospitals are also managed units, such as the Health and Family Planning Commission, the Medical Insurance Bureau, the Finance Bureau, etc. Even now, the most strict management should be public opinion. You see what the leaders of the National Health and Family Planning Commission are most afraid of, the media! I can’t comment on this. Public opinion supervision is a double-edged sword. After all, not all doctors in the hospital can be benevolent doctors. Hua Tuo is reincarnated and the master is rejuvenated in seconds. There is supervision. It's a good thing, but sometimes it's also stressful, and sometimes you can't let go. It's also true that doctors' awareness of self-protection or psychological barriers has increased. I can only say that I hope to find a balance. The road is long.
To put it simply, we all want to be a pure doctor like Lu Chenxi. What Lu Chenxi sticks to are the two words on the wall of Fu Bowen’s office, original intention. The original intention is correct. Dr. Lu's skills are perfect, but she is really spoiled by Fu Bowen. I can be considered a second-generation doctor who grew up in this hospital. She is much more arrogant than me! When I first watched the first few episodes of the drama, I was really shocked. The screen is full, girl, no matter how good your skills are, you can't do things like this. Professor Zhuang's complaint is what I want to say, it's all right. But looking back, I feel heartbroken. Isn’t this who I was in college? What Lu Chenxi can learn from is that he completely failed in doctor-patient communication and failed all workplace rules. Seeing me so entangled and anxious, I not only wanted her to grow up quickly, but also felt that it was really worth killing the girl in my heart. I'm also looking forward to the final answer given by the screenwriter. By the way, I think Zhuang and Lu have a mutually healing relationship, which is great.
In the end, the customary confession is that what Director Yang said was all conscience. It is true that he has selfish motives, but there are many like this in the hospital. This kind of director is more practical than a pure intellectual, not in a derogatory sense. There are so many people, management by pure intellectuals is going to be messy. He knew in his heart that as long as he didn't mess around with him, he wouldn't suffer a loss. The bottom line was still there, although the situation was a bit worse. And I was attracted by the fatherly style in the first two episodes? The tearful eyes of teacher Liu Yijun who confessed his love, the small waist, the long legs, and the glasses!
Ahem, Will I restrain myself?
In short, thank you all for your comments. It’s great to watch the show with you. Douban is still the same Douban.
