Tang Yan's new drama "Yan Yuntai" has been broadcast.
At present, the ratings are not satisfactory, and it is silent.
is a work taken by Tang Yan during her pregnancy and her first post-birth work. Such results really make people feel bad for those fans who think that she is going to transform and play Wang Zhan.
female legends, history, love, tactics, the keywords of 's popular costume dramas in recent years are basically all the same.
is packaged in this way, but the smell of the wrong product is revealed everywhere. Where is the problem? Let's break it.
01 The setting of the three sisters, another "Lonely World"?
people who often chase dramas may remember the "Lone Solitary World" broadcast in 2018.
It turns into a clue based on the marriage and transformation of the three daughters of Zhuguo General Duguxin’s family: Dugu Prajna , Dugu Mandala and Dugu Jialuo.
The eldest daughter Dugu Prajna, as a big sister, is smart and courageous, always sheltering her sister.
, in order to realize the prediction of Dugu Tianxia and become the queen of the future, she did not hesitate to abandon her love and marry into the royal family of the Northern Zhou Dynasty; but after becoming the most noble woman in the world, she died unexpectedly in childbirth.
Because of the charm of the role, although the prajna actor An Yixuan is a supporting role, but the limelight overshadows the female one Hu Bingqing , when she went offline, she always felt that the taste of the whole show was gone. The second daughter of
Dugu Mantuo , greedy for vanity and selfishness, because she did not want to marry poor boy Yang Jian, she married Tang Guogong Li Ying by mistake, and later gave birth to Li Yuan and became the mother of Datang.
The little girl Dugu Jialuo is kind and intelligent. Although her marriage is not smooth, she advances and retreats with Yang Jian, and finally becomes the founding queen of the Sui Dynasty, fulfilling the prophecy of Dugu World.
"Yanyuntai" takes the marriage and life of the three daughters of Daliao's important minister Xiao Simwen as clues. The eldest sister of
Hu Nian ( Charmaine Sheh ), dignified and prudent, because her mother died early, she actually performed her mother's job to take care of her younger sister.
She loves her family like the Prajna in "Luo Guo Tian Xia", in order to save her sister's black bones, she uses marriage as a bargaining chip to marry the powerful Taiping Wang Sage (played by Tan Kai). The second sister
loves her in her black bones. A few sweet words from a man can seduce her, and she will not hesitate to put her family on the charge of treason for the lover. Xiao Yanyan, the younger sister of
, has been ambitious since she was a child. She believes that women are no worse than men, and she wants to achieve a career.
so similar settings? Isn't it a remake of "Dugu World"?
The Douban score of "Dugu Tianxia" is only 6.2. The first half is because of the blessings of Taishi Yuwenhu and Big Sister Prajna. The second half becomes the story of how Yang Jian and Dugu Jialuo, a dumb and sweet couple, dominate the world. No wonder.
However, in the context of "Yanyuntai", "Dugu World" seems to be much better.
The biggest highlight of "Lone Solitary World" is the role of to shape . As soon as
Prajna appeared, Fan Er, the heroine, drew all eyes. Brother
was bullied, she directly stabbed the other party's horse as revenge, and also made the other party speechless.
Facing Taishi Yu Wenhu's courtship, she told her soberly: When you become the emperor, I become the queen, you can get me.
Moreover, she is confident that she is capable of assisting an emperor. The first episode of
is a short play, which accurately presents the character, ambition, and status of Prajna.
Mantuo’s mother was born in a teaching workshop, so even though she was raised with a wealthy head, she still has the habit of flattering and petty.
just betrayed her identity.
Compared with the two sisters, the younger sister Galo is more ordinary. She is innocent, kind and tolerant, although she is unpleasantTired, but too silly and sweet, obviously not in line with the personality of the founding queen.
However, her logic is always normal.
beats Xiao Yanyan (played by Tang Yan) in "Yanyuntai" by this alone.
02 The abnormal protagonist is enough to destroy a drama
"Yanyuntai" is a drama that could have been brilliant.
In terms of emotions, the three emotional paths of the three sisters of the Xiao family, if they are compiled, the content will be rich.
In terms of strategy, the three sons of Yelu Abaoji are divided into three, fighting each other, strategy and ambition are intertwined, there will be enough tension after the filming is completed.
However, the plot was stretched from the beginning.
This is especially obvious in Xiao Yanyan.
As the Queen Mother Xiao who will be in power for 27 years in the future, the plot is bent on highlighting her courage and wisdom, but she is written as a simple and unreasonable "reckless man". At the beginning of the plot of
, it was a wrestling scene. Xiao Yanyan, who looks delicate and petite, directly challenged the warrior Mo Lugu on the grassland, and it was not fighting wit, but fighting physical strength-wrestling.
did not seem to spend much effort, she defeated the best warriors on the prairie.
Is this reasonable?
Even if we want to break the prejudice that women do not lose men, we don't have to compare our strength!
let women use physical strength to suppress men, I don’t know what the screenwriter thinks? Are you afraid that the audience has too little misunderstanding of gender equality?
A woman's physical strength is naturally inferior to that of a man, so during the whole process, we can see the double dangling in front of our eyes. Although
is related to Tang Yan's pregnancy, even if he is not pregnant, it is impossible to get such a strong man. After
defeated Mo Lugu, the little girl Yanyan took her trophy—a good horse to the market.
then met the male protagonist Han Dejang ( Dou Xiao), and then he fell in love with a better horse. In order to get other people's horses,
first used small means to frighten their horses, then frightened their horses by framing them, and then forced them to buy and sell them as their own. After getting
, she didn’t listen to Handeran’s persuasion. In order to prove that there were no horses on the grassland that she couldn’t control, she ran wildly in the downtown area on her horse, regardless of bumping into people, kicking over stalls, or destroying buildings. The scene of a large-scale traffic accident.
finally broke into the execution ground, and escaped as the daughter of the prime minister's house. Is this a copy of "My dad is Li Gang"? Are you afraid of ruining your father's reputation? Where can
show the wisdom and bravery of the heroine? Only impulsive and reckless.
However, compared with the following plot, this is nothing.
In the willow shooting competition watched by the emperor and men participated in, Xiao Yanyan stole Mo Lugu's waist badge, riding on a horse snatched from Handran, pretending to use Mo Lugu's name to participate.
, you know, this is the crime of deceiving the king! It will hurt the whole family!
However, I am a heroine and I am self-willed. Anyway, the screenwriter will come back naturally if something goes wrong. Therefore, after the emperor's speech on "Who says women are worse than men", she will be fine.
You must know that Xiao Yanyan is the daughter of the prime minister and a future female politician, so she must not lack a keen political sense.
Under the influence of her father, her perception of political sinisterness cannot be zero, even if it is not 100% clear. In order to prove his ability,
pushed his family to death. Apart from IQ problems, I can't think of a second reason.
is too naive and too thin to portray the characters, so those lines that praise Xiao Yanyan can only stay in the mouths of others and force them to be given to the audience by others. After all, her ownThe performance is too convincing.
is more anxious than Xiao Yanyan's IQ is her second sister black bones.
is simply a marriage freak in the black bones, and every day he wants and hopes is to marry a good boy.
However, who did she choose in the end? The waste wood is happy to hide.
Xiyin pursues Wuguli, at the beginning, it is entirely for the power that she represents behind her back.
In order to get married with the prime minister's family, he first showed good intentions to Hu Nian, but Hu Nian directly understood his intentions, and then he turned his goal to the dull bones.
uses two words to evaluate Xiyin’s way of chasing women, namely: is greasy and clichéd.
is talented, but Xi Yin did not.
wants to look, but it doesn't match it. The only two characteristics of
are ugliness, and a basket of love words with no nutrition and no true feelings.
I am obsessed with you when I first see you; what I think about you; I will give you the most precious things in the world, including the throne of the queen...
When he came down, Wu Guli was so devoted to him, and so desperate to save joy and hide, he did not hesitate to put his father on the charge of treason.
Seeing this, I am also drunk.
just wanted to shout: Where's the brain?
Even if you don’t understand politics and love, as a daughter of the prime minister’s family, don’t you know that treason is the one to lose your head? Just send the family on the road of nowhere?
Of course! These crises can also be resolved, after all, the plot needs tool man to promote it!
(here, please type the "tool man" on the public screen)
, which is slightly normal, is Hu Nian played by Charmaine Sheh.
two sisters get into trouble, she always helps with the aftermath; in the face of the King Taiping’s confession, although she does not love, but she sees the political situation of the Qing Dynasty, and is willing to marry for the sake of her family, is a woman with reason greater than emotion. Among the three sisters of
, only this one is worthy of the position of prime minister's daughter.
However, this character is not without bugs.
According to the plot, Hu Yan is about 18 years old, at least younger than Handejoon, but Charmaine Sheh is 45 years old! (Ahem! Pretend I can’t see it)
You know, the script is the basis of the script, and the character creation fails, so what else to watch?
Do you see Dou Xiao's handsomeness or Tang Yan's girlishness?
03 Acting pulls the hind legs, who can be saved?
In addition to the script and role modeling, many actors' performances are also difficult to describe. The first thing
will say is Tang Yan.
smiled happily, frowned unhappy, other times the fundamentals were expressionless, coupled with the dubbing word by word, it is really difficult to enter the scene.
Contemplative Xiao Yanyan
Angry Xiao Yanyan
Worried and angry Xiao Yanyan
(What is the difference between Tang Yan’s performance in the different scenes above)
Because she is pregnant, she suddenly needs a stand-in for the big thin scenes.
However, if the rest of the scene can be shaped well, the above problems can also be ignored.
However, it is a pity that it is really difficult to find advantages in her.
In the play, Xiao Yanyan always mentions her idol, the Queen Mother.
Who is the Queen Mother?
Shuluping, the queen of Yelu Abaoji, the first emperor of the Liao Dynasty.
Shu Luping married A Baoji when she was 14 years old, and she contributed a lot to her being able to claim the title of emperor.
She has done the following major things in her life:
After Abaoji became the chief of the department, she followed Abaoji to fight and made suggestions for him.
Abaoji was elected as the Khan of the Eighth Khan Department. She helped Abaoji change the election system of the Khan's three-year election to hereditary.
When Abaoji was opposed by her brothers, she helped her husband to make a decisionHis determination, bloodbathed the opposition forces.
In the end, Abaoji can establish a nation and proclaim her emperor, and her planning role in it is essential.
Shulu Queen Mother
Undoubtedly, Shulu Queen Mother is a woman with both ingenuity and iron and blood.
Therefore, except for the protagonist's halo, Xiao Yanyan, the "silly white sweet" portrayed by Tang Yan, can't really connect her with the ruthless character of Queen Mother Shulu. The protagonist of
collapsed, how can the whole show stand?
Today, the audience's filter for Tang Yan still stays at Zi Xuan 11 years ago. After
"Sword and Sword III", she was immersed in "Silly White Sweet" and could not extricate herself. What presented to the audience was similar roles, and she did not see any progress in acting.
Now, she is 37 years old and has reached the age in urgent need of transformation, but I don't know if she has the determination to transform and whether she can hone the strength for her transformation.
After all, if the transformation fails and the original filter is broken, it is better to stay in a safe place.
But the question is, how long can the original filter last?
In recent years, not to mention the well-known actresses of the post-90s Yang Zi and Guan Xiaotong , even the 98-year-old Zhao Lusi quickly occupied with "The Rumored Chen Qianqian" and "I Love You" market.
and post-00 Zhang Zifeng , Wen Qi are striding forward on the road of growth.
, especially those who are born after zero and zero, are both capable and talented "drama masters", and they have won mainstream awards early.
Zhang Zifeng won the Hundred Flowers Award for Best Newcomer at the age of 8, and Wen Qi won the Golden Horse Award for Best Supporting Actress at the age of 14. If
does not transform in time, Tang Yan's generation of 85 flowers must soon be troubled internally and externally.
As the male lead, Dou Xiao, although he has completed the role, is quite satisfactory and no surprises.
Charmaine Sheh and Tan Kai are powerful and their roles are also pleasing.
Charmaine Sheh performed Hu Nian's maturity and wisdom.
Tan Kai as the gold medal supporting role, this time still live up to expectations.
The King of Peace, he plays, can be domineering and coquettish; under the cold-blooded appearance, there is a heart that longs for love and warmth.
Hu Nian and King Taiping are rare logical online and IQ online characters in the play, but after all, they are supporting roles and limited roles.
The pair of Xiyin and Wu Guli, not to mention their acting skills, neither have their expression control in place.
The woman habitually stares, and the man squeezes his facial muscles and facial features together when he gets emotional, which is really bad.
So, where is the highlight of this show?
Now, what we can expect is that it should not run more and more on the silly road, and there should be fewer bridges that show the lower limit of IQ.
Otherwise, what did we as the audience do wrong? Want to withstand the crit of the bad drama again and again?
