Another historical drama has started airing, "Ask the Cangmang"!
Of course, the incident happened suddenly, and I guess many viewers still don’t know about it. However, it doesn't matter, this drama has been promoted for a long time, and the protagonist of the plot is familiar to everyone. It can be said that it became popular before it was broadcast.
"Ask the boundless earth, who is responsible for the ups and downs?"
How heroic and heroic the spirit and ambition are here! This drama can be said to be highly anticipated and predicted by countless viewers that it will become the blockbuster and hit historical drama at the end of 2023.
I know what everyone wants to say? The show hasn't started airing yet, but it already has a lot of names.
is another hit? There are so many hits in domestic dramas! The year 2023 is almost over, and there are only three dramas that can be called hits!
Zhang Yi and Zhang Songwen "Hurry Up". Yu Hewei and Zhang Luyi's "Three Body Problems"! "The Long Season" by Qin Hao and Fan Wei!
Indeed, the above three dramas are indeed highly anticipated and will be the biggest hits in 2023. However, the film "Ask the Cangmang" that we are going to talk about next is not bad either. With its grand historical narrative and super-luxurious cast, it definitely has the ability to compete.
1: What is the plot?
"Ask the Cangmang" is a drama with a major revolutionary historical theme. This time, the plot background is set from 1921 to 1927.
This period of time is a moment of great change in Chinese history. It is also the historical story of how the young Mao Zedong, as a revolutionary pathfinder, gradually grew into a pioneer and pioneer, and explored the correct path of the Chinese revolution.
Actually, in this plot introduction, I don’t need to say more, everyone knows what this drama is about.
Moreover, it is no exaggeration to say that there are probably many people who read this article who know more about it than me.
Even if you don’t listen carefully in class, you must have seen some movies and TV shows about this period of history.
This kind of subject matter also has strong support from CCTV. If nothing else, once this drama is broadcast, all those satellite TV entertainment dramas will have to withdraw on their own. It is true.
I won’t say much more about the plot. Audiences who are interested and want to learn more can discuss it in the comment area.
Next, I will mainly introduce to you some old acquaintances of the actors in this drama, and talk about whether this drama has the potential to become a hit!
2: Who will act?
"Asking Cangmang" is directed by Wang Wei.
Yes, you read it right, he is the director of "White Night", and his masterpiece is "Secret and Great".
To be honest, Wang Wei is an excellent suspense drama director, an outstanding spy war drama director, and even an excellent costume martial arts drama director. His directing ability is excellent, but I still can't believe it when he directs "Ask the Cangmang".
In my impression, Wang Wei has always been involved in suspense themes. Now he is participating in the direction of the historical drama "Ask the Cangming", which makes people curious.
I personally hope to see Wang Wei develop his talent, ensure quality, and let the audience see his strength again.
The screenwriter of "Ask the Cangmang" is Liang Zhenhua, who is also a well-known director in China. The currently popular "Welcome to Maile Village" by Jin Dong was written by him. He is experienced, has high-quality scripts and is equally trustworthy.
The starring role of "Ask the Cangmang" is Wang Renjun, and the main supporting roles include Jiaze, Ning Li, Ma Shaohua, Bai Ke, Huo Qing, Tang Zeng, Wei Daxun, Jiao Junyan, Niu Junfeng, Zhang Xiaolong, Zheng Yecheng, Song Jia, Huang Xiaolei, Tan Kai, Li Chengru wait.
starring and supporting roles, a total of 15 well-known actors. Among them, there are young actors and youth idols. Of course, there are also powerful actors from the Mesozoic generation, treasured supporting actors, and veteran actors. Many actors are old acquaintances of everyone.
With the large number of people and the large number of fans, this lineup, I think there will be no problem in forming three domestic drama lineups. It is very strong.
Among these many actors, there are three actors whose performances I am particularly looking forward to!
3: Wang Renjun
I have seen a lot of film and television works about Mao Zedong.
I have seen Gu Yue's vivid performance in the "Armageddon" trilogy, I have also seen many performances by Tang Guoqiang, and I have even seen the image of young Mao Zedong portrayed by Liu Ye in several movies.
Of course, in recent years, we have seen Hou Jingjian's outstanding performances, such as "The Age of Awakening" and "The Fire of the Road".
However, I really don’t know much about Wang Renjun. I have only seen his performances in "Gutian Bugle" and "1921". The impression given to me is that the personal image is fresh and the performance is delicate and solid. It can be regarded as a successful completion of the role.
In my impression, Hou Jingjian shocked me more. Wang Renjun may have to take a back seat and continue to work hard.
At least, if Wang Renjun wants to develop greatly as a special actor, he needs to be more focused. After all, Hou Jingjian is about to become Tang Guoqiang's successor. The same type of plays he has participated in in the past two years are really different. few.
The waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead. Tang Guoqiang has aged, and what follows is a world of young and special actors.
Wang Renjun participated in "Ask the Cangmang", and his performance is worth looking forward to.
4: Ma Shaohua
Yes, you read that right, Ma Shaohua is back.
In "Ask the Cangmang", Ma Shaohua will play Sun Yat-sen again and show his expressive performance.
Although Ma Shaohua does not only play this role, he also has many well-known masterpieces. For example, in his early years, he played Dou Ying in "Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty". In recent years, he has also played Cai Yuanpei in "The Awakening Age".
Even, in the 2023 historical drama "Ding Baozhen", he also played Ding Baozhen and gave a good performance.
But in my heart, there is no one more suitable to play Sun Yat-sen than Ma Shaohua.
To be honest, ever since I watched "Toward a Republic", I have been obsessed with Ma Shaohua's performance. The Sun Yat-sen he portrayed was just like something out of a history book, vivid, flesh-and-blood, expressive and three-dimensional.
This time, Ma Shaohua comes out again and participates in "Ask the Cangmang".
Judging from the plot, the space given to Ma Shaohua should be quite large. I personally look forward to Ma Shaohua's performance and hope he can continue to amaze the audience and deliver a satisfactory answer.
5: Ning Li
Speaking of Ning Li, he is also an old acquaintance of everyone.
In my mind, Ning Li can be said to be an example of a late bloomer. In his early years, he acted in many film and television works and had opportunities, but he never became a hit. And it wasn't until he portrayed Li Toyota in "Undocumented Crime" that he was out of control and became completely popular.
It’s just a blockbuster. By relying on one character to gain a foothold, Ning Li has truly relied on her strength to get where she is today.
Since "Undocumented Crime", Ning Li has frequently appeared in various major dramas and is deeply favored by major directors. In "The Hidden Corner", he played Zhang Jinglin, and in "The Silent Truth", he became Zhang Chao again.
Later, he played Dai Li in "The Great Battle", and he collaborated with Sun Honglei and played Ma Shuai in "Anti-Gangster". In addition, he also played Lin Yu in the spy drama "Rival" and portrayed the little cobbler in the movie "The Myth of Love".
speaks fluent Shanghainese, which is simply not good.
Last year, Chen Xincheng in "Police Honor" was Ning Li's masterpiece. His expressive performance impressed me with admiration.
In 2023, Ning Li appeared again in the costume suspense drama "Under the Fancheng", playing Song Chen.Under Ning Li's shaping, the role of Song Chen directly overshadowed the protagonist and became the most glorious character in the whole drama. A supporting role can be turned into a masterpiece. Ning Li's acting skills are amazing.
This time, Ning Li participated in "Ask the Cangmang", and his performance is also a highlight and deserves everyone's attention.
Of course, "Ask the Cangmang" has a strong cast and many good actors.
Everyone has their own preferences for radish and green vegetables. The ones I listed are just my personal preferences.
There must be many viewers, and they are also looking forward to the performance of other actors.

6: What else is there to watch?
In the current domestic drama market, big dramas and new dramas are coming one after another, and there will be a crowded schedule.
Currently, CCTV's eight series of "Xiao Man's Life" have been completed. If nothing unexpected happens, two new dramas will be launched one after another. Among them, Zhang Ruoyun's "The Boy Who Sings the Dragon" is the first to meet the audience. The play has been launched in CCTV's eight prime time slots.
Judging from the two episodes aired, the drama conflicts are fierce, the plot rhythm is not sloppy, and it has the potential to be a hit of the year.
Then, on December 12, a spy drama "Huamei" will be broadcast on CCTV's eight prime time slots. The subject matter is pleasing, the lineup is interesting, and the strength cannot be underestimated.
However, apart from this, I have not seen any other competing TV series. As a result, the domestic film and television drama market has basically formed a gap period. It can be said that CCTV's "Ask the Cangmang" has almost no competitors. It is launched at this time, which is a huge blessing to the ratings.
The subject matter is good, the lineup is strong, and there is a large platform supported by CCTV. It is difficult to think whether this "Ask the Cang Mang" will be popular!
