Tencent Video announced Bai Jing Ting’s new crime drama Xing Jing Shi Ke 1: Feng Hua Zheng Mao has begun filming today in Yanbian in Jilin Province with the release of a slew of booting ceremony photos.
The planned 40-episode also stars Sun Qian (Love Song in Winter), Lan Ying Ying (This Thriving Land), Wang Zhi Wen (The Limbo), Zhang Zi Xian (In the Name of the Brother), Alan Aruna (Sword Rose), and Sun Shao Long (This Thriving Land).
Xing Jing Shi Ke 1: Feng Hua Zheng Mao also proves yet again that Bai Jing Ting, recently known for his hit sci-fi crime drama Mobius, seems to now be leaning more towards dramas with some meat rather than the same tired historical romance dramas he was starting to become known for more recently.
What with the the 31-year-old actor recently starring in crime dramas like Mobius, Justifiable Defense, Always on the Move, and now Xing Jing Shi Ke 1: Feng Hua Zheng Mao, those of us who also prefer a drama with some substance can rejoice, eh?

The Chinese drama is adapted from “Gong He Guo Xing Jing Cui Dao Zhi“(共和国刑警崔道植), which was written by Feng Rui (冯锐).
It sounds fascinating because it looks at the beginnings of modern criminal investigation in China, with a plot that sounds like this:
Set against the backdrop of the numerous serious crimes with dire social impacts solved by Chinese police in the 1990s, the film tells the story of the police’s breakthroughs and innovations in criminal investigation, criminal investigation technology, forensics, and other areas.
It celebrates the police’s youthful passion for combating criminal offenses, their constant reflection on the meaning of the police profession, and their unwavering pursuit of justice and truth.
