Probably not. I see that Lan Yingying is very diligent in promoting on Weibo. Although this drama is really not good, I want to complain about this drama today. "Elite Lawyer" is an urban legal drama directed by Liu Jin and starring Jin Dong, Lan Yingying, Zhu Zhu, Yuan Quan, Liu Mintao and others. The drama revolves around the workplace of Quan Jing Law Firm and tells the story of a group of legal practitioners headed by Luo Bin and Dai Xi, who strive to protect fairness and justice and strive for professional ideals. The drama premiered on December 20, 2019.
First of all, let’s talk about the problem of flaws. To give a simple example, the heroine educates the delivery boy on the law, and the work-related injury insurance regulations she recites smoothly are the old version that was implemented before 2011. For another example, the characters in the play mention several laws such as intellectual property law, product patent law, and commercial law, which do not exist in reality. These are serious legal flaws. Can the screenwriter do some homework? It's really a headache. If you don't complain, who are you complaining about?
Originally, I thought that the slight advantages and flaws would be fine, as long as the actors’ acting skills were online and the plot was interesting, I would tolerate it. At first, I felt that all the actors here were capable, and none of them were here to "fish in troubled waters". But I couldn't stand it anymore. First, about Jin Dong's character in the play. Everyone said that after Jin Dong became popular, he only played one kind of role, that is, a handsome veteran cadre. Whether it's He Han or Tan Zongming played by him, it feels like the same feeling. It has never changed. It's really exhausting. Also, I have always been very optimistic about Lan Yingying's acting skills, but I don't know this time. What's wrong, her character is also unbearable, and her acting is a bit embarrassing. (I am posting a beautiful picture of Zhu Zhu for my own sake)
Finally, there is another big problem, that is, this drama is said by netizens to be a plagiarism of the American drama "Golden Lawyer". All these things added up one by one, it was really unbearable and had to be complained about.
