![]() ![]() And fifteen researchers and two nuclear physicists just died in a fire at a lab in North America. Shi Qiang discovered that all the dead scientists, including Yang Dao, spoke to Shen Yu Fei days before they died. Ironically, it's asshole cop Shi Qiang who believes him. ![]() As a scientist, he needs to see evidence, but he's in way over his head with no other ideas. He demands proof that some entity or power is doing this to him, and she tells him to watch for signs that the universe will flicker just for him in three days when work at his lab resumes. He does what Shen Yu Fei ( Li Xiao Ran) told him to do, which is to halt work on his development of the nanomaterial at his lab. It's like everyone who ever coped with mental illness. ![]() The scene where his wife suggests he consult a psychiatrist feels like being gaslit. Zhang's Wang Miao is a hardcore introvert, naïve, self-preoccupied, and desperately self-protective, keeping his thoughts to himself because he knows people might not believe him from personal experience. Yu He Wei's Shi Qiang is brash, gruff, working class, and all cop, shoulders slumped with class resentment but full of street smarts and cunning. It's a mark of good casting and great actors who can convey what and who they are just by their look and their body language before they even start talking. ![]()
