On the evening of September 28, the content of the second chapter of the TV series "Hutong" was updated on the genuine video platform. This chapter starts from the 1980s in Beijing, and tells the story of the second generation of "neighborhood aunts". In the first chapter, I wrote a drama review article thinking that the main actors Zhao Lusi and Hou Minghao lacked acting skills, which caused the whole work to have a wrong taste of old Beijing, so this chapter is very twisted. In the second chapter, the lack of acting skills of the protagonist seems to have been adjusted.
In this chapter, Cai Wenjing plays the descendant of Tian Zao, who also belongs to the Hutong generation who is more able to cover things up. However, this time, the heroine appeared in the form of a Hutong princess. Because of her princess temperament, she is very popular in the hutong, and everyone is willing to listen to her. Not only uncles and aunts like her, but also the young people listen to her. This kind of character design of the Hutong princess is actually a test of the actor's performance. If the performance is not good, it will not be convincing. In the plot at the beginning of the second chapter of
"Hutong", the heroine played by Cai Wenjing first participated in the poetry reading activity, and recited modern poetry on the spot. This kind of poetry and calligraphy temperament was perfectly grasped by Cai Wenjing. Of course, audiences who really understand poetry may feel that Cai Wenjing's performance is still different from that of a real young literary woman. Only from the point of view of TV series, it is already passable to shape the character like this. At least, as the audience, we are willing to believe that the heroine likes poetry and is committed to the development of literature. In the second chapter of
, the actor Liu Huan plays a hutong stringer with a very sensitive business sense. This character is more exciting, and because of this exciting spirit, it has become an important point of view in the play. Liu Huan's realization of the role is indeed much better than Hou Minghao in the first chapter. Hou Minghao is still the burden of a typical traffic star, while Liu Huan in "Hutong" is purely an actor who serves the role and knows how to shape the role well.
male and female protagonists, one is more static, the other is dynamic. When the opponent plays, it is very flavorful. Whether it is Liu Huan or Cai Wenjing, they are able to hold their roles relatively prepared. Because they act correctly, the story of this chapter is easier to set up. For the TV series "Hutong", the line of pure realism is taken, and the characters are accurate and real, which is the biggest prerequisite. Therefore, such a TV series requires acting skills and can be used to determine the actor's performance skills.
At the same time, Fu Ning, the screenwriter and director, has a relatively accurate sense of the age of Beijing in the 1980s, and it is easy to get some middle-aged audiences to empathize with . In the 1980s, there was indeed a literary craze in some cities. Many literary magazines are the places that young people yearn for. This yearning is very similar to the yearning for some big Internet companies a few years ago. In those days, being able to come into contact with literary works such as poetry and novels was simply a very sacred thing.
Therefore, when many young people in the play recite poems in Beihai, audiences who have really experienced this generation will easily develop empathy. The 1980s was the most glorious era of Chinese poetry. Back then, the poets could travel far away without money, as long as they brought their own poems and names, they would surely have food to eat. The glory of this kind of poetry came to an end after the 1990s.
In the second chapter of "Hutong", a new batch of foreign famous novels arrived in the bookstore, which triggered a wave of young literary youth queuing up to buy it overnight. This kind of thing is also very real. In "Hutong", the most popular foreign literary masterpieces, and the young people talk about philosophers like Nietzsche and Kant. This is not an exaggeration. At the same time, many Chinese literary masterpieces were also in a mess. For some novels, as soon as they are published, there is a rush to buy them.
These things, in the present, seem incredible. Many of our current youth have no enthusiasm for buying paper books. Therefore, in "Hutong", the fact that the male protagonist played by Liu Huan can also make a fortune as a second-order dealer of literary masterpieces may be unreal to young audiences. In fact, in a particular era at the time, this,It is true. This literary masterpiece boom was still prevalent in many remote areas by the end of the last century. At that time, in many remote areas, literary masterpieces were still unavailable.
Later, with the rise of the Internet, people could buy books online, and the boom in literary masterpieces in many remote areas of China gradually dissipated. Let's just put it this way, around the new millennium, there is still a business, that is, going to many used book markets in Beijing, pulling the books that have been eliminated by the library, and then pulling them to some remote areas, and the prices are still high. The dissipation of this craze has something to do with the fact that the Internet has made buying books more convenient. Literary masterpieces, finally not nervous.
Based on the current plot, Liu Huan and Cai Wenjing's acting skills are obvious to all. In a TV series with a realistic style, the male and female protagonists must have acting skills. Otherwise, it will easily collapse in large sections. (Text / Ma Qingyun )
