The 2024 Spring Festival is really lively.
The three comedy blockbusters are very positive. Among them, Shen Teng, Jia Ling and Ma Li actually started a group competition.
There is really something fun to watch during the Chinese New Year.
I want to ask which one I want to watch the most?
Here Shen Teng leads the male lead with 100% of the role, while over there Jia Ling lost a hundred pounds.
It's hard to decide for a while. This is simply the problem of the century!
However, when "Article 20" made its debut, everything seemed to have an answer.
The configuration of "Hurry" plus "The Long Season" plus "The Three Brigades", Fan Wei, Chen Minghao, Gao Ye, "Crazy Donkey", "Li Hongwei", and Chen Minghao are all here.
plus Yu Hewei, Zhang Yi, as well as Qiao Shan, Da Pan and Li Naiwen.
This is simply the ensemble cast of last year’s hit movie. Who can resist being tempted after watching it?
It seems that Lao Mouzi is really going to win the Spring Festival box office championship again!
However, what I never expected was such a star-studded work.
officially announced its first meeting with the audience. The one who attracted the most attention turned out to be the 85-year-old Zhao Liying. This time her status in the world was fully demonstrated -
"Article 20" is about the male protagonist Han Ming (played by Lei Jiayin). As a middle-aged prosecutor, he just wants to be safe in the workplace.
unexpectedly encounters a series of cases and problems in his family. He decides to step out of his comfort zone to find the truth and defend his family at the same time.
sounds like a male-led drama, and it is about the workplace or reality.
But in fact, this is a work with a lot of laughs, and Zhao Liying, as the second female lead behind Lei Jiayin and Ma Li, plays the key role of Hao Xiuping.
It is very possible that this character is the biggest tear point in the entire movie.
Yes, you read it right. The character played by Zhao Liying is a hearing-impaired person. She has no lines and can only communicate in sign language. Although there is not much introduction to
, you can get a glimpse of it from the trailer.
In the film, she completely tore off the baggage of her image. She did not deliberately discredit her but appeared completely without makeup. Her clothes were washed out and her hair was extremely oily.
Although there are only a few simple clips, the tension of Zhao Liying's performance can be fully felt across the screen.
When the child was snatched away, Zhao Liying flew up to her. She subconsciously opened her mouth as wide as possible. That was the only way for someone who could not scream to ask for help.
During the tug, she held on to her child tightly, and I was already involved.
The crying scene after losing the child is even more touching.
couldn't help but burst into tears, but she had no energy to manage her expression at all. She communicated in sign language as quickly as possible. Her mouth was constantly opening and closing, and her expression was so urgent that it was on the verge of collapse.
At this moment, Zhao Liying seemed to have integrated into the character, and she really wished she could speak.
The scenes with such large expressions are not broken, Zhao Liying's acting skills can be imagined.
can see that this girl worked hard to break into the film industry.
As far as the entire movie is concerned, Hao Xiuping can be said to be the most lovable character. Her setting is destined to arouse the audience's emotions, and she is the focus from the beginning.
As a tragic character in a high-intensity comedy, Huang Xiuping is the highlight in the opening scene.
What Zhang Yimou knows best is to manipulate the audience. I believe that the highlights of the whole scene can also shock the audience. It is difficult to lose this game.
After watching the live broadcast of the "Article 20" press conference, I completely changed my view on Zhao Liying. Although
has a third-level configuration, as soon as it debuted, this girl directly sat firmly in the C position.
Judging from the color matching of their clothes, Ma Li, Lei Jiayin and Zhang Yimou are in New Year colors, Gao Ye and Wang Xiao are in couple colors, which are obviously designed, and Zhao Liying wears white, which is a proper c.
When working with a senior director, the question that the host cannot avoid must be his impressions of working with a national teacher.
I believe everyone is familiar with it. Best actor Zhang Yi has infinite respect for Zhang Yimou, and Yu Hewei is about to praise Lao Mouzi to the sky.
has reached "Article 20".
Ma Li said this -
I never dared to think that I would have the opportunity to cooperate with director Zhang Yimou. In fact, I came here to learn. I think this life is worth it.
Indeed, being able to collaborate with Lao Mouzi is something that many actors never dare to dream of.
When Zhao Liying arrived, her style of painting changed.
host: What is your biggest feeling about working with director Zhang Yimou?
Zhao Liying: I didn’t have much communication with the director (pause). I was surprised by the director’s trust. I hope to give the director a satisfactory answer. It is very rewarding for me to work with so many outstanding actors.
was neither humble nor overbearing. Instead, he raised his hand to the other actors, who could be heard stumbling a little nervously, but obviously Xiao Zhao's true temperament has not changed, and he has gained a little more art of speaking, and he has really grown.
But what I didn’t expect was that she really didn’t regard cooperating with Zhang Yimou as an honor. The focus of her expression was that she hoped to be recognized as your "Zhao Xiaodao".
The organizer later designed a dumpling-making session.
There are three tables, and Zhao Liying is still in the middle with the children.
Zhang Yimou is at a random table, and it can be placed anywhere. When he goes to the two tables next to him, the actors will interact with them immediately, except for Zhao Liying's table.
Actually, I can feel that Xiao Zhao is still a little nervous and not very good at socializing. He only concentrates on making dumplings at the table.
Zhang Yimou originally put his head around, wanting to interact, but Zhao Liying just didn't look up.
Lao Mouzi smiled awkwardly and wanted to blend in, but found that no one was paying attention and walked away in a sullen manner. It felt like my father tried but couldn't blend in at the children's table.
But in the end, Zhao Liying still stood firmly in the C position next to Lao Mouzi. This row of noodles was really enough.
sat down again, Zhao Liying gave up the C seat to Gao Ye, and sat next to her with her child in her arms. In fact, from beginning to end,
’s status in the world goes without saying.
Conclusion
In fact, this is not the first time Zhao Liying has tried to make a movie.
She voiced Zhou Dongyu in "Gongsuo Agarwood" and played the villain very well. There were many highlight clips. Later, she was also online with Deng Chao in "Riding the Wind and Waves".
In fact, the audience's recognition of actors is always based on their acting skills, and an actor's status in front of the public also depends on whether he has a masterpiece that he can produce.
Strength determines everything, and it is not an exaggeration to describe her current counterattack as "the boat has crossed the Ten Thousand Mountains".
Many netizens even jokingly call her "Zhao Liyin". She immediately disappears when there is a scene. No one can be found no matter what the activity is. I think this is another level of recognition for her.
Of course, as for whether this status can be maintained, it depends on Zhao Liying's specific performance in "Article 20".
Will you choose to go to the theater on New Year’s Day to watch Lao Mouzi’s new film?
