The Life Journey of A Genius; From Autistic to an Unsung Hero
The first thing that attracted me was that this drama is based on a novel by Mai Jia. Set in the early era of Communist China. But judging from the storyline it should be around the 1960s, because one of the characters in the story, Manager Wang said he was a war veteran who had fought Japan, Taiwan and join the Korea war (the Korean war ended in 1953).
Although it is acknowledged that the drama's headline is about espionage, like all great stories, it evolves around the integrity of human struggle, sacrifice, love for the country, and romance. The way the characters deal with all the obstacles, suffering, and losses, could stirs our emotions. In 41 episodes we are not invited to explore ways of solving codes using mathematics. Of course, this is not a story about that. We are also not invited to explore espionage specifically. The strength of the story is not in those aspects. Rather, the aspect of the struggle of the main character finds the fact that human potentials are unlimited, all we need to do is challenge our limitations.
In my opinion, 41 episodes is a bit long-winded. Some less relevant passages would be fine if they were not included. For example, Rong JinZhen encountered with Zheng Dang on his campus. Bullies scene against Rong at 701 headquarters. Lie Ting who likes to throw a tantrum, until Yan Shi humiliates Rong who has become a hero and his superior in front of the trainees. Perhaps, while maintaining a suspenseful, and heartwarming storyline, 35 episodes will suffice. The ending of this drama is very beautiful. Only in the rescue of Mrs. Rong, and Miss Rong by Rong Jinzhen on the train didn't even stand out.
All the cast of this drama are amazing. The main player, Chenney Chen perfectly plays an autistic person, and transformations along with his mental development. However, it's not only Chen who plays well, every player, even the supporting roles are able to bring the story characters to life and make us recognize the characters.
I think I will rewacth this serie in the future. I find it phylosophycally rich, For example, the 701 members were loved their country, but inside they still could feel the bitterness. At the end they're just human. If the lost their humanity, they will become fanatic, or extremist.
