It's been a while since I watched Chinese Series, in fact somehow I kinda avoid of watching series 'cos it's hard to stop once you started .. so anyway, friends were telling me about ZZ's (周渝民) new series, it's a very different from his sensitive role "Hua Zhe Lei" in or confident businessman "Qi Wei Yi" in or his other goofy and childish characters, instead here he acted as cop, he is a craven and cowardly ruffian who's interested in the chasing girls, but that makes it quite interesting and along the storyline, his character changed to more serious.
ZZ plays Chen Zai Tian aka "Pi Zi" and Mark Zhao plays Wu "Ying Xiong" -- that's how director Cai Yue Xun (the director of and ) came up with the title "Pi Zi Ying Xiong - Ruffian or Hero"
ZZ (痞子) acted as "an officer who relies on bullet dodging, ludicrous intuition, and mysterious information to solve numerous cases"
英雄's characters are righteous and a bit overly unyielding, this case solving expert will heedlessly crash cars, jump from buildings, and kill others every time in the hunt to capture a criminal. He's a man of justice who can distinguish what's right and wrong. He's the hero in his colleagues' hearts, while he's a crazy man to his team captain and officers of higher ranks.
From the news I read, initially Director Cai wanted to reunite F4 to act on this drama, but it was feared that having four handsome guys standing simultaneously in the light might cause the audience to obsess over them, which is a good point .. I personally don't think that this series can stand on the same level as Meteor Garden, they are totally different genre and it would definitely ruin the nice story plot if putting all F4 guys in the scene.
I have yet to finish watching the series .. but so far, it got me hooked! I could give 4 stars out of 5 and Mark Zhao isn't bad at all .. :D
