.
Another domestic family drama has started broadcasting. " Fireworks and People " broadcast by CCTV has already aired several episodes.
To be honest, I was originally not a fan of the drama "Fireworks". Although this drama was aired on CCTV, judging from the publicity before the airing of the drama.
Whether it is the cast or the plot, it feels almost boring compared to "South to North" and "The Case of Emperor Di of the Tang Dynasty".
This is a large-scale period drama with many veteran actors and actresses. Just looking at the cast, it has the potential to be a hit.
is a costume suspense drama, and it also features a large number of powerful actors such as Zhang Jiayi and Zhou Yiwei, and the lineup is also quite impressive.
However, if you don’t know it by looking at it, you will be shocked when you look at it.
After watching 2 episodes of "Fireworks" in a row, I seemed to have discovered a treasure. "Fireworks" is a domestic drama. Although the cast is average, it cannot stand up to the superb acting skills of the actors. Although the drama content of
is an urban family drama, the dramatic conflicts are dense enough. The first two episodes caught people's attention as soon as they started, and I was instantly attracted to the drama. On the night when
started airing, I wasn’t satisfied with watching 2 episodes, so I watched 4 more episodes on the platform. After watching 4 episodes, I still feel that I am still unsatisfied. I will not give up until I have tied the series and watched the latest 8 episodes.
Of course, I am not the only one who likes the show. After the show was launched, the ratings also soared. Within 3 days of the show, it ranked first in the national ratings for 2 consecutive days.
You must know that this was achieved under the attack of "South to North" and "The Case of Di Gong of the Tang Dynasty", which is really rare.
Moreover, the ratings are gratifying and the audience feedback is also good. is on Douban.com, and at a glance, several pages have 5-star reviews. The most popular words that the audience commented on this "Fireworks" are that it feels real and has the atmosphere of fireworks.
took pictures of the current situation of young people’s lives during and after the Spring Festival, focusing on empathy.
1: Entering the drama
Another Spring Festival, Li Yijin, who has always been well-behaved and obedient, made a bold decision not to go home to celebrate the New Year this year, but to go to her hometown in the Northeast to celebrate the New Year at her boyfriend's house. This is what she said to her boyfriend. an attitude.
Li Yijin took a taxi to a market in the northeastern countryside. She stuck her head out of the window. The bustling market made her feel the authentic Northeastern fireworks.
The fresh air made her full of yearning for the upcoming trip. However, before she even entered the door, reality hit her hard.
Her boyfriend's grandma stopped her outside the door. The grandma said that she had found someone to figure it out. Her eldest grandson and Li Yijin had different horoscopes and were not suitable to be together. If you still want to be together, then you must step over the brazier to get rid of the bad luck today.
My dear, this new wife hasn’t even entered the house yet, so this is going to be very difficult. Li Yijin came from a big city and had never experienced this kind of anger since she was a child. However, this sudden incident also made her a little confused.
However, since she had already come, she had already been mentally prepared, gritted her teeth, and stepped over.
But this is not over yet. In the middle of winter, I am forced to drink something, and then I am pointed at my nose and humiliated. A good year has turned into nothing.
There were only three things to do. Li Yijin looked at her boyfriend's family who were already in a mess, and he stood alone, extremely frustrated.
Originally, their family had to visit their grandma every year during the Chinese New Year, and no one was an exception. This year, she was under tremendous pressure and didn't even dare to answer the phone call from her mother. She came to her boyfriend's house without telling her parents or grandma.
But things are better now. Not only has her parents been angry, but her boyfriend has also been frustrated and blocked. She has had a failed Spring Festival. This is the beginning of "Fireworks", but the two short scenes and dramatic conflicts are enough to grab people's attention.
On one side, Li Yijin is accompanying her boyfriend back to her hometown, and on the other side, her mother and grandma are celebrating the New Year. The contrast between one south and one north, one cold and one hot, instantly creates a dramatic conflict.
These two scenes were shot cleanly and accurately interpreted the meaning of the saying "home is both weakness and armor".
2: What story are you telling?
To be honest, after watching 2 episodes of "Fireworks", let's not talk about how well the actors performed. Just the before and after comparison of these two Chinese New Year scenes is enough to attract people.
I don’t know how you feel, but I think she accurately interpreted the scenes of different families celebrating the New Year.
During the Chinese New Year, young people always have their parents urging them to get married.
During the New Year celebrations in some rural areas, there are still some customs that young people are not accustomed to.
During the Chinese New Year in the city, although it seems a little deserted, everyone seems to have their own lives, leaving enough space and leeway. When celebrating the New Year in the countryside, everything seems direct and real.
Of course, the most important thing during the Chinese New Year is the family reunion. The plot of Qiao Haiyun waiting for his little granddaughter to return is still a bit heartwarming.
Although Li Yijin left without saying goodbye, which made her mother Meng Mingwei angry, Meng Mingwei felt heartbroken when she saw her daughter coming back in such a disgraceful state.
Grandma Qiao Haiyun was even more heartwarming. She listened to her little granddaughter's grievances, opened her arms, and warmed her family with love.
The story of "Fireworks" also revolves around the joys, sorrows, sorrows and joys of Qiao Haiyun's family.
The New Year reunion is just the beginning. The real conflicts that need to be bridged and the daily life that needs to be faced. has just begun. The real trivial matters are still to come.
After the Chinese New Year, every family has changed.
The main conflict in the eldest daughter’s family is Li Yijin’s marriage problem.
According to the plot, there should be a big problem in the relationship between Li Yijin and her boyfriend, and it is not easy to completely heal it. At this time, the mother Meng Mingwei appeared on the stage. For the sake of her daughter's marriage, she was screwed. Heartbroken.
3: How was your performance?
One, Xu Fan
Xu Fan plays Meng Mingwei in the play. The setting of the role of Meng Mingwei in the whole play is very interesting.
Although she is the eldest, she is not Qiao Haiyun's daughter. Moreover, she was born lame, which also gave her an additional label.
As soon as this setting came out, it would be easy for everyone to sympathize with Meng Mingwei without over-description. He is not his biological child and has flaws, so naturally he has no status in this family.
went home for the Chinese New Year. As the eldest, she was busy and it was understandable, but once she added the layer of not being her biological child, she became a bit bullying. The second child went home during the Chinese New Year and did nothing. He said he loved beauty, but in fact it was more like bullying.
And the defect of lameness gave Meng Mingwei an inexplicable sense of inferiority. Therefore, the character Meng Mingwei is full of emotions as soon as he appears. And Xu Fan also accurately grasped this point.
Her expectations for her daughter, her nagging, and her laments are all for her daughter, not only for her daughter, but also for herself. Her daughter is her support and her support at home.
In the conversation with her daughter, Meng Mingwei suddenly paused when she talked about her helplessness, which made people even more sympathetic.
To be fair, Meng Mingwei may not be a lovable parent at first, but it is this inexplicable pause that allows you to instantly understand your parents' difficulties.
Xu Fan is still amazing. With a few words and a few nagging words at the beginning, you can get into the character in an instant. Meng Mingwei's low-pitched complaints during the conversation with the second child can also let you quickly understand the character's psychological state.
If she didn’t have low self-esteem, she might also be a woman who loves beauty. If she didn’t have low self-esteem, she might also be an enlightened parent. If she didn’t have low self-esteem, she might also be an enviable mother.
Second, Song Chunli
Song Chunli plays Qiao Haiyun in the play, the patriarch of a family. The rule she has set for the family is that they must go home during the New Year. This has been a rule that has not changed for many years.
This year, my eldest granddaughter went to the other party's hometown in Northeast China for her lover, breaking the rules for the first time, which made the old lady very angry. However, the old lady still loves her granddaughter after all.
Song Chunli is an experienced actor, and she has long been familiar with such roles.
She has played similar roles in the 2022 new year drama "In the World" and in "Days of Our Lives".
Especially in "Days of Our Lives", the character she played, Hehe, is simply a model of a good Chinese grandma. When her grandson was sick, she took good care of her. Even if she was wronged and starved, she would still protect her grandson.
That man devoted his whole life to his family, and it was only when he was dying that he let go of all his burdens.
Different personalities have different performance methods, but Song Chunli handles them all with ease, and the details of her performance are amazing.
The same is true in "Fireworks". Whether it is lines or facial micro-expressions, Song Chunli can handle them with ease. Many actors in the play play opposite her, just like a teacher looking for a student.
Thirdly, Ma Sichun , Li Xiaoran
The performance of Ma Sichun and Li Xiaoran, from my personal perspective, should be considered quite satisfactory. Compared with powerful actors such as Song Chunli, Xu Fan, and Liang Jing, these two actors are still far behind, but they are not holding them back.
Overall, there is room for improvement in Ma Sichun and Li Xiaoran's performance. We look forward to their subsequent performances.
In addition, the performances of these powerful supporting actors, including Liang Jing, Liu Jun, and Li Chengru, are also remarkable, with frequent highlights. In short, almost all the members of "Fireworks" have excellent acting skills.
Conclusion:
The story is good, the dramatic conflicts are intensive, and the actors' acting skills are online.
I once again recommend this "Fireworks" to everyone. If you like similar themes, don’t miss it. After reading it, I believe you will come back and thank me!
Finally, I wish you all a happy life, no worries at work, and all the best in the new year!
Enjoy the rest of your vacation!
