entertainment circle has a strong "creative" ability. It can always redefine a word and attach it to a certain type of people to create a new group, such as fresh meat, small flowers, and old cadres.
The "veteran cadres" in the entertainment circle are used to describe male celebrities who are abstinent, have a very positive outlook, and are not good at social networking.
In the past few years, a group of male stars with "veteran cadre" temperament represented by Huo Jianhua, Wang Kai, and Jin Dong have swept the entertainment circle with fans of almost all ages.
While they have both idol temperament and acting skills, they always contribute countless classic pictures of "education" fans every day. This "contrast" has attracted countless fans and made the "veteran cadre" style popular.
However, in recent years, compared to the previous trend of frequently occupying the headlines of topic hot search, now these celebrity "veteran cadres" seem to usher in a "retirement wave", and the heat has dissipated a lot.
When the tide recedes, we will see who is on the shore and who is "swimming naked" on the spot!
As the entertainment industry becomes more and more inclusive, the "gender distinction" is no longer very obvious. Neutral florets and feminine niches abound.
, especially male idols who are indistinguishable from male and female, are constantly emerging with the rise of talent shows and becoming the mainstream.
sister fan and mother fan came into being. These male idols of little milk dog and little wolf dog have successfully aroused the "maternal glory" and desire of protection of female fans.
However, the relationship between idols and fans is like a "supply and demand relationship". When the output of idols causes excess output, the carrying capacity of fans is challenged. Faced with all kinds of fresh meat idols, the "aesthetic fatigue" is also overwhelming. Will follow.
coincides with this time when a group of "veteran" style male stars become popular, which is the direct reaction of the audience to the aesthetic fatigue of "idol stars".
They are different from young idols who often sell cuteness and act coquettishly, and use soft cuteness to capture people's hearts. On the contrary, these celebrity "veteran cadres" maintain their masculine temperament while still maintaining warmth.
In terms of image, service, manners, speech, etc., they are almost insulated from sexy, soft and cute characteristics, but usually show people in an atmospheric and refined image. The fusion of these two characteristics of
not only hits the pain points of female audiences, but also conforms to the aesthetic tendency of some male groups. The explosion of "veteran cadre style" stars is an inevitable event no matter how you look at it. Another distinctive feature of
star "veteran cadres" is "positive energy".
Sometimes they are just like teaching directors. They are rigorous and rigid. They can't see the "crazy" behavior of fans, and they can educate everyone with earnest words. Fans of
are used to putting stars in a higher position, and the stars in this position and preaching are more convincing and unexpectedly attract fans.
Huo Jianhua, who once used the "Legend of Sword and Fairy", never operated Weibo, can be said to be a maverick in the entertainment industry.
Before this, he often made popular searches for "education" fans.
Huo Jianhua showed a strong atmosphere of "veteran cadres" on various occasions. He cares about how fans go home, reminds fans to be safe, and does not allow fans to skip class to chase stars.
In an interview, a fan said that he was a "brain fan" of Huo Jianhua. To this, Huo Jianhua's answer was "Why can't you be a good fan? Why do you have to be a "brain fan"?"
There is a video circulating on the Internet. The content is that when Huo Jianhua was taking the airport shuttle bus, he saw fans sitting in the caring seats and directly reminded him: "Do you want to let someone sit?"
Although the fan replied, "No one is sitting." ", but Huo Jianhua still solemnly said, "No one is sitting, you have to let it."
No wonder fans laughed and called Huo Jianhua "with the face of a boyfriend, fucking his father's heart". After seeing the idol star's soft and waxy appearance, the contrast of the "veteran cadre style" star will make fans experience more freshness.
Of course, if only the temperament of an old cadre reflected in words or behavior, it may be able to sustain the momentary enthusiasm, but it may not be able to support the long-term popularity of these stars.
In the final analysis, actors still have to rely on acting skills and works to conquer the public. It is the kingly way to keep your own characteristics, but also to make breakthroughs and surprise fans and audiences at all times.
From the perspective of acting, to be honest, Huo Jianhua does not belong to the actor who appreciates food.
His appearance and acting skills are still good enough for TV dramas, but as we all know, once TV drama-based actors enter the big screen, their acting skills often cannot withstand scrutiny and finesse. The same goes for
movie cafes. Entering the field of TV dramas, you will encounter situations of dissatisfaction.
However, judging from the works such as "Hide and Seek" and "Rescue Time Rescue" in which Huo Jianhua participated in his later period, it can be seen that he is trying his best to get rid of the label of "Beautiful Boy", trying to use acting skills to reverse the common perception of the public.
Similarly, Wang Kai, who played some sissy " Chen Jiaming " in "Ugly Invincible", turned into a sincere and patriotic war hero in "The Pretender", interpreting the role in the limited role space. It's just right.
Since then, in " Langya List ", "Ode to Joy", "Dajiang Dahe" and other film and television dramas, Wang Kai has tried different styles for each role and performance.
and the same show’s Hu Ge , also don’t want to stop at the setting of "the costume niche", relying on "Langya List" from an idol to a powerful actor.
and when he was 37 years old, he ushered in the first movie "The Gathering of South Station" as the male lead, which completely subverted the image, picked the role of fugitive for the first time, and won praise from the idol Quentin Tarantino.
There are two sides to everything. The style of veteran cadres has increased the recognition of some male stars, and they have been marked with obvious titles at the same time. In fact, "veteran cadres" have also become a kind of shackles invisibly.
You must know that as the audience’s aesthetic and perception requirements increase, everyone’s preference for certain types of people and the persistence of freshness will also decrease.
Therefore, if you want to catch the eyes of the audience, whether it is from the role, acting or image, it is really important to maintain a refreshing feeling.
However, some celebrity "veteran cadres" are still caught in the quagmire of a single play and similar images, consuming the patience of the public.
Jin Dong, as a representative of the "veteran cadre" style, became popular at the age of 39 with " pretender ", and the red is late.
, Jin Dong, who became popular overnight, seems to know what kind of role his image is suitable for, so he is gone forever on the road of "elite".
"Surgery Storm", "Ode to Joy", "My First Half Life", "Mr. Love", " Elite Lawyer " and other series of film and television dramas. The characters played by Jin Dong are highly homogenous.
If you don’t mark it, youIt's even hard to tell which character comes from which play.
has a narrow play path, and most of the characters portrayed by Jin Dong remain young and promising, possessed by the overlord, and exported as chapters. The principle and the famous line are one after another, and the image of almost a successful person in the water, saving the heroine from the distress Street lights.
In addition, the single plot also reflects Jin Dong's bias in choosing the script.
Looking at Jin Dong’s works in recent years, the basic settings of the film and television dramas are modern urban struggle dramas or emotional dramas, plus the similarity in the characteristics of the characters, over time, the audience is numb, and they lose their freshness. .
and this phenomenon is not unique to Jin Dong. For most of the male actors who are labeled as "veteran cadres" style, single play style and similar roles have almost become a common problem.
Although their acting skills pass the test, but the surprise is not enough, the memory points of all the characters are almost overlapped, the audience no longer pays, their presence in the film and television market will become less and less.
At this point, it is reminiscent of the actor Tian Yu who has become popular in the past two years.
Mentioning Tian Yu's name, many people may not immediately think of who it is, but when they see the role he plays, everyone will unanimously say, "Tian Yu is too good at picking a role."
The wealthy and funny teacher in "Charlotte Troubles", the beloved wife of "Little Husband," Yuan Shuai, and the strict and loyal Wang Qinian in "Celebrating More Than Years".
and the hot " golden years " some time ago, the artificial, gossip, sensual, righteous, and loyal "Fan Jingang" made Tian Yu suck a wave of fans fiercely, the so-called "drama throw" "Face" probably refers to actors like him.
It is not difficult to see that each of the characters played by Tian Yu has some minor problems, but they are also absolutely sensible. This also makes these characters full of "human touch" instead of showing a superior "eliteness." .
No wonder some netizens commented that Tian Yu was "just one step away from the explosion."
In fact, in the final analysis, the "veteran" style is also a kind of "personal design". Stars rely on it to maintain their image, and fans rely on it to maintain their fantasy. Anyone who wants or needs to be remembered needs personal settings.
is just as the "People's Daily" once pointed out: no matter how carefully crafted the "personal design" is, it is just a deliberate image.
, no matter how well you "act", you will not be your true self after all. If you encounter a "rollover" one day, it will be difficult to reverse the impression of the public.
is like Jin Dong who takes off his "veteran cadre" jacket and erects a "cultural man" persona. Although he has repeatedly stated that he "wants to appear or pretend to be in the image of an intellectual", he shows his words and deeds. But it is very different from the setting of "cultural man".
mispronounced idioms, excessive boasting, improper speech, etc., and there were even more frequent conversations with Li Jian at Renmin University, saying bluntly that "his assistant is a graduate of the National People's Congress, and he is still his own economic man." , The self-esteem between words is so high that Li Jian, who has always been high EQ, can't help him.
After a series of "rollover" incidents, Jin Dong's hard-to-accumulate goodwill has also been wiped out, and there is only one ridicule. In this way, I remembered the words Da Zhang Wei once described as the lead singer of a certain band, which is quite right.
Once passionately burning "veteran cadres" stars, collectively ushered in the "retirement wave", we can understand it as the inevitable result of the changeable entertainment circle update and overlap.
In the entertainment industry, it is an extremely difficult task to go for a long time and become popular for a long time.
has been as popular as Andy Lau for decades, and it is rare that he is still very popular. Moreover, his image, strength, character, acting skills, works and many other factors are behind him to support him in exchange for today's achievements.
To avoid the "retirement tide", in the final analysis, it depends on the business ability of the job. It is whimsical to rely on people to set up enough!
