"Dark Night and Dawn" is expected to be launched on CCTV-8 and iQiyi in September 2024. It tells the story of the first generation of public security fighters in Shanghai around 1950 and the struggle between Chiang Kai-shek's spies who attempted to subvert the new China.
Highlights of the series:
[Narrative Innovation] Focusing on "anti-espionage" and "secondary lurking" after liberation, it stands out among a number of spy war themes and breaks through the narrative boundaries of public security themes. The play shows a lot of life in the alleys of old Shanghai. While the cases are highly burning and urgent, it also has the fireworks of real life [Full Character Setting] The two male protagonists of "old police" and "new public security" collide, the relationship between the enemy and us is constantly reversed, and the "cat and mouse CP" has its own dramatic tension. The character's growth line is clear, the "atypical" male protagonist counterattacks, the "tainted" old policeman breaks away from the predetermined fate and regains his faith
[Strong lineup] Chen Zheyuan, Nie Yuan, Xing Fei, Yao Anna lead the starring, Wang Zhiwen, Ni Dahong, Wang Jinsong, Hao Ping, Kong Lin and other veteran actors join in, new and old actors compete on the same stage, presenting a phenomenal spy war feast

https://x.com/pixietuan04/status/1833909304778432968woahhhh!!!! hoping for a good one hehe
Honestly, I don’t want CZY to end up with a lot of melons that turn out to be fake or test the waters only for him to face unjust criticism, especially from fans of popular novels, FL, or others, as has happened before. 😑 Only one melon from a reliable source is enough, just like he got from FH regarding the director and storyline.
I’ve noticed that the drama is set to premiere on iQIYI before it airs on CCTV, if I’m not mistaken. If they plan to replace "Song of Mortals" on CCTV, which ends on September 18th, they might release the DNAD episode on iQIYI before 18th then.
Please get a good night’s sleep and wake up refreshed to meet our policeman, Lin Shao Bai! 😁 By the way, I'm not sure if they'll release a new trailer tomorrow. They only mentioned "Character relationship stills" and "Dual-end reservation map," so I'm still wondering what type of content they'll reveal.
If iqiyi's event on September 25th is about their next project, which might include drama that is still in production. We might get some content from FH, but it’s best to keep expectations low to avoid disappointment. 🙃
From the Reuters recently, FH shooting is becoming more intense. I like the murderous prince Feng style..he has a pretty face, handsome figure, and a ruthless killing spree vibe with no mercy on the enemy 😁 Can they air this drama early next year? 😭

It’s almost like sharing too much would be a crime. 😂
But can they give some more? 🥺
