Hit suspense series reaches finale
(China Daily) The 21-episode suspense series Bianshui Wangshi (Tales of Bianshui) on livestreaming platform Youku's White Night channel has become a surprise hit this summer. 

According to Douban, China's influential review aggregator, the series started with a rating of 8.1 out of 10 and rose to 8.2, making it one of the highest-rated domestic suspense dramas of 2024 to date.

The story is about a complex, fictional world called Sanbianpo. The narration follows young Shen Xing played by actor Guo Qilin, a novice worker who embarks on a perilous adventure to survive in this mysterious realm while searching for his uncle.

Along the way, he encounters a mysterious figure named Uncle Cai, leading him into a journey filled with danger and difficult choices.

The TV series uses extreme realism, genre-specific storytelling, cinematic quality, and profound human insights to build the bizarre, detailed world of Sanbianpo. From the environment to the costumes and language, every detail is meticulously crafted to enhance viewer immersion and empathy, expanding the aesthetic boundaries of domestic suspense dramas.

The series not only constructs the realistic world of Sanbianpo but also creates an innovative new language system.

The crew invited language experts to consult in developing a new language by integrating phonetics, script and grammar from Dai, Thai and other Southeast Asian languages. This new language helps actors better master their roles, enhancing the audiovisual experience and fitting seamlessly into the storyline.

Director Mou Xincen said that today's audience demands and can handle much more information. Simply focusing on suspense or crime-solving is no longer sufficient to meet their entertainment needs.
