In general, "24 Hours" in the sixth season is still full of suspense, but no matter what kind of ups and downs the plot appears, it seems to have been expected, and there is no surprise and heart-wrenching feeling when watching previous seasons. Episode 18 tells that after JACK BAUR lifted the nuclear bomb crisis, he suddenly received a call from China's CHENG. CHENG told BAUR that Audrey was still alive, but Audrey had to be exchanged for a circuit board from the nuclear bomb. This circuit board hides the secrets of Russia's nuclear weapons system. By mastering this secret, China can crack the Russian nuclear weapons system and achieve a strategic situation of equal confrontation with Russia.
I won't talk about how BAUR saves Audrey because of his righteousness. I believe that Americans will be more flesh-and-blood than us when they shape their heroes. I would like to talk about the simple idea of being a Chinese viewer when the Chinese element appears again in the film.
First of all, the American screenwriter did not make up the plot that China needs a nuclear bomb circuit board as if the Chinese wanted to steal nuclear secrets through the hostage Audrey, but only wanted to restrict Russia through this circuit board. This is clear from BUAR's dialogue with China's CHENG. I admire the screenwriters of "24 Hours" very much. They showed quite calmness and objectivity when dealing with Chinese themes. Except for the episode of BAUR's surprise attack on the Chinese embassy in season 5 (it's season 5, forget it), people feel a little bit sorry for our security system, but when it comes to diplomacy, technology, interrogation, personnel quality, etc. It gives people a strong and rational understanding of the Chinese side, rather than a rogue country like some legends. On the other hand, when we look at the attitude of our literary and artistic works and the news media when reporting on the United States, the gap is self-evident.
At the end of the 18 episodes, there are two suspense for us: 1. Will BAUR die with the Chinese side in order to save Audrey? Yes, "24 Hours" may not have a 7th season; 2. If BAUR successfully rescues Audrey, then no matter what. Whether the circuit board is obtained by the Chinese side will pave the way for the seventh season. In this way, the next season of "24 Hours" is very likely to have a "China-US contest" situation. As a rising power, in theory, there is no reason for the screenwriters of "24 Hours" to let China always play a leading role in such a globalized TV series, and I also believe that with the quality of American literary and artistic workers, they Will give full respect to Chinese elements.
"24 Hours" has been filmed for 6 seasons and a total of 142 episodes. It is almost unimaginable in China that the TV series can attract countless attention with such a length. The screenwriter's vision and understanding of global politics, military affairs, and terrorism are probably a hundred times stronger than those of domestic experts who often appear on TV. I'm really tired of those domestic TV dramas that want to preach, to literature, to suspense, and to action.
