As a national drama, the plot of the Wind Chaser takes place in that turbulent era that has gone away, but the portrayal of the protagonist is based on the insight into the present and grasp the mood of The Times. The drama not only cuts in from the new perspective of financial economy, but also breaks the boundaries of time to some extent, and hits the identity and resonance of today's audience with the vitality of the drama core and the character growth line. The play breaks the cold cold of The Times with warm human feelings, inspires the contemporary youth to forge forward with the growth of the youth of The Times, and expands the solid and profound creative direction of the Republic of China theme works with unique ingenuity and character

(Phoenix net review)
The screen of the TV series "Wind Chaser" is full of movie texture from the shooting Angle to the tone, the editing is multi-line parallel, dense but not chaotic, and the huge amount of information in each episode makes the audience dizzying. In terms of service, the crew abandoned the "filter" and pursued a sense of authenticity, using a large number of old objects of the year to restore the style of Shanghai in the 1930s. While the production is well made, the show's excellent characterization has also won praise from the audience. From the leading role to the supporting role, almost every actor brings the characters to life in front of the audience with wonderful rendition
[38]
.
(People's Daily online review)
The Wind Chaser has created a new world for the narrative of spy drama with its unique narrative way.
The play is set in the early 1930s. In November 1931, the Provisional Central Government of the Soviet Republic of China was established, and the government led the base areas in the struggle to break the enemy's economic blockade, and economic work such as finance and finance made certain progress. The fate of these characters is a highly condensed and artistic transformation of the revolutionary historical story.
What is quite new is that the series chooses finance, an area rarely involved in spy war narration, to expand a new path for spy drama to deeply cultivate the theme of faith. The series uses a series of financial events to drive the plot and guide the audience into the depths of history. The author focuses on the resistance Wei Ruolai's master Shen Tunan encountered in the process of financial reform: he was assassinated in order to recover the custody of customs duties from foreign banks; Its work of investigating counterfeit currency also failed in the process of covering up the scandal for the Kuomintang reactionary high-level. This reality fully exposed the corruption and social darkness of the Kuomintang government at that time, and also paved the way for Wei Ruolai to join the new democratic revolutionary cause led by the Communist Party of China.
Focusing on the pursuit of faith, the drama uses the narrative language of spy dramas to skillfully weave the interpretation of faith into a suspenseful story, causing the audience to empathize with the fate of the characters. The life path of the protagonist Wei Ruolai has certain typical and practical significance. At first, he embraced a sense of justice and hoped to serve the country through finance. In the contacts with Shen Tunan's sister Shen Jinzhen and other Communists, he gradually came into contact with and understood Marxism. In the end, after witnessing the betrayal of the Kuomintang reactionaries and the sacrifice of the Chinese Communists, he found his own faith, tempered it into steel, and grew into a financial worker who stood alone on the economic front of our party. Wei Ruolai's growth process not only reflects the ideological and emotional characteristics of young people in that era, but also conforms to the trend of drama contradiction and historical logic, which makes it easier for young people to have a sense of substitution and spiritual resonance. The audience can see from him that the truth of faith is tested in the face of crisis, the strength of faith is tested in the rain of bullets, and the beauty of faith is manifested in the close connection between the fate of individuals and the future of the country and the nation.
Through artistic techniques, the play has created a number of three-dimensional plump characters. Positive characters such as Xu Nuo, Wei Ruolai, Shen Jinzhen, etc., their images are fresh, amiable and respectable. The negative characters, such as Lin Qiaosong, also try to avoid simplification, conceptualization and simplification to make the plot more diversified.
In the play, two very different scenes of "Shanghai" also form a sharp contrast: on the one hand, the so-called upper class, drinking and drinking; On the other hand, the life of the city is very miserable, a large number of workers and small traders are precarious, under the ravages of war and the oppression of the reactionary government. By showing the real life status of the toiling masses, the play reflects the truth of The Times, provides a psychological basis for the growth and transformation of the characters, and also makes the spy war narrative show a certain historical thickness and deep ideological background.
One of the lines in the play says: "There is an old Chinese saying, ride the long wind, break 10,000 miles of waves. The barren fields you see, given time and patience, will grow into fertile fields that will sustain the economy of the world." Now that line has come true. From the drama, the audience can also see that it is not only time and patience that make dreams come true, but also the unremitting efforts of generations of strivers to pursue the light of faith that cannot be extinguished in their hearts
