《The Mutations》Related Info

《The Mutations》The story begins with Chu Sijing (played by Huang Xuan), a member of the Jinyiwei family during the Apocalypse, being ordered to go to Ningyuan City, a borderland, to investigate the truth about the typhoid epidemic.There are frequent sensational rumors of demons at work and patients being eaten by monsters, but local officials claim that it is just common typhoid fever and nothing abnormal.From Ningyuan City to Ninghai Fort, and then to Wumu Island, an isolated island on the sea, Chu Sijing collided with various forces such as Tartar official Boyan (played by Wu Yue), foreign captain Angelica (played by Zhang Rongrong), and the investigation gradually deepened.The situation has become increasingly dangerous.

The mysterious power under the strange imagery and the overtness in people's rhetoric seem to indicate that Wumu Island hides ulterior secrets.The island that should be full of life looks like a wild and polar scene, but the villagers who originally relied on the sea to eat are required to eat no fish.The ice and snow on the island cover up the illness of the villagers, and also provide a hiding place for “Monster” and the forces behind it.Under many obstacles, how Chu Sijing and his team will overcome difficulties and approach the truth has become the most anticipated highlight of the series.

《The Mutations》Incorporating oriental culture is undoubtedly a fresh and surprising attempt.The series combines black ibis, Heng Gong, Xuan Ming and other oriental monsters that have appeared in the Classic of Mountains and Seas - The Mystical Classic of Gods with island adventure stories, which has great oriental aesthetics and visual impact.The confrontation and pull between humans and monsters also has a more oriental philosophy and sense of fate.While following the adventures of the protagonist group to pursue clues about the monsters, the story also provides an in-depth portrayal of complex human nature in troubled times. Good and evil are not distinguished by appearances. Characters in different positions have their own desires and puzzles.I believe that with the joint efforts of powerful actors such as Huang Xuan, Wu Yue, Zhang Rongrong, and Lu Fangsheng, as well as new-generation actors such as Wang Shengdi and Jiang Qiming, the play will bring a wonderful group portrait story.
