On the evening of August 17, the TV series "Behind the Truth" was launched on Tencent Video with 4 episodes, officially starting its premiere mode. Starring Han Dong and Qu Jingjing, this TV series tells a crime investigation story in an imaginary geographical environment. Based on the current plot content, the quality of this TV series is relatively low, and there are serious deficiencies in cultural level and narrative techniques. This is a TV series on the theme of criminal investigation with a relatively outdated creative consciousness.

Let’s talk about its biggest problem first.

Fictional. If crime and criminal investigation themes want to be valuable and interesting, they must follow a basic principle: not fictional. This includes the authenticity of the regional background and the authenticity of the historical background. After fictionalizing the regional and historical backgrounds, the criminal investigation story can only become a third-rate story, unable to carry other effective values. Uneducated screenwriters and their teams like to make this kind of low-level creative mistakes.

The most obvious fiction in "Behind the Truth" is the fiction in terms of the regional background. The second is the era background. From this TV series, it is difficult for us to tell whether it is a southern urban environment or a northern urban environment. A truly valuable TV series needs to first solve the problem of regional background. In the same plot, it is also unclear whether it is the 10s or 20s. The ambiguity of the two backgrounds has made this TV series only struggle among third-rate dramas.
