The great thing about this play is that the screenwriter and director never wanted to make the play appear lofty by pretending to be sophisticated and pretending to be a ghost.
The plot is so simple and easy to understand that it is outrageous, and there are almost no scenes that make people confused. It looks smooth and natural all the way. Although it is occasionally dull, the screenwriter always has a way to add small climaxes from time to time, so that you can't give up the drama when you go deep into it.
The scenes and compositions are impeccable, and the photographer's preference for symmetrical compositions lends itself well to the rigor that comes with this intense scientific vibe. The soundtrack is very weak most of the time, because there is almost no melody, it is more appropriate to say that it is a sound effect rather than a soundtrack. Although there is no melody, it can always render the atmosphere just right, and sometimes even bring the feeling of suffocation.
The color of the whole play is just one word, yellow. very yellow. Yellow desert, bleak and wild. Yellow light, gentle and romantic. Yellow itself is full of contradictions, just like the protagonist Lao Bai is also a huge contradiction.
I had a vague sense of the romance of chemistry when I was in junior high school. The elementals are placed in a transparent container, bubbling and gurgling. Sometimes softly combined, sometimes violently explosive. Sometimes it turns into a nice color. This drama portrayed my romantic feelings about chemistry in a surprising way. Chemistry is like a song, like a poem, like a painting, in short, very romantic. Chemistry has sound, rhythm, and color.
I promise, this writer must be an overly funny guy.
