The basic idea of this drama is interesting

Apart from the basic idea, it's hard to find anything good about the drama. During the first two episodes I thought this was a bad parody of spy movies - I was wrong - this is just a very bad spy drama.
The plot and events are full of contradictions and lack of logic, and both the authorities and the spies often act so illogically and stupidly that the drama should be called "Spy Games for Dummies".

The bad script is probably partly to blame, but all the actors perform poorly, even Li YiTong who usually performs excellently in all her roles is uninspired in this drama. Wei Da Xu's "performance" as Huang Zi Cheng is a complete flop.
The VR scenes are also completely unrealistic, for example everyone who uses VR will surely notice how ridiculous it is to "teeter" on roller skates when the movement is made with a controller and the person is actually sitting.

One example of illogicality in this drama ( there are dozens ):
An Spy organization draws up a multi-part plan to steal something. The route of the courier carrying the object is planned so that at a certain point he disappears from all surveillance cameras - and after that he can no longer be located. However, the handover is planned to take place a few hundred meters BEFORE this disappearance. In addition, the handover takes place directly to the car visible in the surveilance camera.
