Source title: Zhang Han’s new drama “The End of the Beacon” is on the air, and the male protagonist of the anti-Japanese drama has a great breakthrough!

Recently, starring Zhang Han, co-produced by Penguin Films and Golden Media, and directed by Lian Yiming, the anti-Japanese war drama “The End of the Beacon” was broadcast simultaneously on Tencent Video and iQiyi.

The TV series “The End of the Beacon” is adapted from the novel of the same name by the writer alcoholic. It tells that in July 1937, the situation in North China was urgent, and the Japanese army was preparing to launch an all-out war of aggression against China. The Black Stone Village in Chahar Province appears to be calm, but in fact the undercurrent is turbulent. Zhang Songling, a well-known talent from far and near, was framed by a traitor and his family was destroyed. He resolutely resolutely joined the army. After experiencing several hard battles, his military literacy has been rapidly improved, and he has also understood that the responsibility of a soldier is to protect the people. In the end, he joined the Communist Party, united the prairie people against the enemy, fought against the Japanese invaders, won the victory of one side, and returned the people to a stable and happy life.

“The End of the Beacon” is Zhang Han’s first appearance in a TV drama about the Anti-Japanese War. This time, his image has achieved a great subversion. With short hair, unshaven beard, and a deep temperament, many viewers did not recognize Zhang Songling’s actor at first glance as Zhang Han, which also triggered discussions on Zhang Han’s transformation.

It can be seen from the exposed poster of “The End of the Beacon” that Zhang Han’s eyes are full of hatred for the family and the country and love for the people’s mountains and rivers, and the firm image of galloping on the battlefield in military uniforms perfectly and truly presents the “prairie” Cavalry”, with a military style, more vividly restores the legendary history of Zhang Songling’s role.

The audience for the anti-Japanese war theme is limited, and the choice of Zhang Han as the male protagonist to take the lead is also because of Zhang Han’s nationality. On the first day of the broadcast, the first four episodes told about the patriotic student Zhang Songling and two classmates who were accidentally involved in the anti-Japanese turmoil in Heishizhai after failing to assassinate Japanese spy Ryuji Nakajima on the train. On the way Zhang Songling organized the “Anti-Japanese Snowflake Club” to Peiping, he witnessed his teacher fall before his eyes, experienced betrayal by his best brother, and finally his family broke down, lost his parents and his first love, Peng Weiwei.

Wiping away his tears, he embarks on the road of revenge, where he meets a group of militiamen who capture him indiscriminately. Zhang Songling was in a hurry and saved his life by virtue of his accounting skills. A turmoil temporarily subsided, Zhang Songling sneaked out of the residence to find the copper abacus and Mongolian knife and was about to escape, but was caught by Wei Ding. Zhang Songling finally let go of his guard with Wei Ding’s company, and the anti-Japanese fighting spirit in his eyes gradually rose…

On the day of the broadcast, Zhang Songling, played by Zhang Han, appeared on the hot search and caused heated discussions. Many viewers said that “Zhang Han’s anti-Japanese fighter Zhang Songling has no sense of disobedience”, “Zhang Han found his own way”, “Zhang Han’s It’s very malleable”… Zhang Songling played by Zhang Han undoubtedly brought a lot of attention and popularity to the drama with a limited audience!

In recent years, Zhang Han’s screen image has become more and more bold breakthroughs, from playing the first Chinese captain in “Ocean City” to Zhang Songling, the grassland warrior in “The End of the Beacon”, and the Cantonese chef in the upcoming drama “Lush” Chen Wei, you can see that Zhang Han has been jumping out of his comfort zone, trying different types of roles, and broadening his acting career. The hit of “The End of the Beacon” further proves Zhang Han’s plasticity and vitality as an actor.

At 19:45 every night, Tencent Video and iQI will be broadcast simultaneously. Looking forward to more wonderful performances of Zhang Han in “The End of the Beacon”!
