Tencent's costume drama " Yong'an Dream " is about to be staged, and the plot setting is super eye-catching! The entanglement in past lives and the present, and the plot of marriage first and love later, make people excited and can't wait to see it! The cast is also a highlight, with Xu Zhengxi playing the male lead Lu Shiyan, and Ouyang Nana challenging the role of the heroine Shen Zhen. This combination got the audience talking a lot, with some finding it fresh and interesting, while others had reservations.
01 The male protagonist Xu Zhengxi challenges the role of a powerful official
As the male protagonist of "Yongan Dream", Xu Zhengxi has attracted much attention! Not only does he have great looks, but his acting skills are also top-notch. Costume roles are a piece of cake for him. Recall that in 2023, his wonderful performances in dramas such as " Double Purple " and " Flower Liuli Anecdotes " won unanimous praise from the audience and demonstrated his comprehensive strength.
In "Yong'an Dream", Xu Zhengxi once again challenged the role of a powerful minister, showing his excellent ability to control characters. Through his delicate acting skills and precise detail processing, he vividly displayed the character's inner world and complex emotions. Especially his majestic ancient costume style is simply reminiscent of his classic images in other works, such as "Yu Wenhu", which is really surprising!
Xu Zhengxi’s many years of experience in the entertainment industry cannot be overshadowed. His deep understanding of the characters and superb acting skills make every character come to life and leave a deep impression on the audience. In "Yong'an Dream", he not only has to show wisdom and courage in court struggles, but also finds himself in complex emotional entanglements. This is undoubtedly a huge challenge for his acting skills.
02 The heroine Ouyang Nana's appearance and acting skills are mixed.
Although "Yong'an Dream" is only a small-budget web drama, it has to be awesome in terms of styling! Especially the most beautiful woman in Chang'an played by Ouyang Nana, her clothing, hairstyle, jewelry, and makeup must be meticulous, and she must not look like a street vendor or a mess.
Fortunately, judging from the stills exposed so far, Ouyang Nana's style is pretty good, the colors and styles suit her well, and her hairstyle is quite classical. However, even so, the audience friends still didn't buy it. They felt that the most beautiful woman in Chang'an she played looked like Lu Xiaokui who had traveled through time in modern times, or the maid next to the most beautiful woman!
In fact, young actors in the entertainment industry generally have good appearance conditions, and are much better than us ordinary people. But if you play a role like "Beauty", you have to come up with some real material.
Take a look at Ouyang Nana in "Yong'an Dream". Her "big bright" hairstyle in the trailer simply exposed all the flaws in her appearance. Looking from the side, the facial lines are like a wall, giving her a maid-like look.
Ouyang Nana is in the trailer of "Yong'an Dream" this time, but she has a maid face and superficial acting skills! When she was performing the crying scene, her eyes were closed and she was grinning. Her facial features were flying around, her body was shaking wildly, and it was dizzying to watch. This level of acting is in the same vein as Lu Xiaokui's back then, with similar approaches but the same effect!
I think of her wild acting skills like "Mom has been gone for ten years" on the variety show stage, but it made "The Ant Walk" a classic scene in the history of variety shows! And in the TV series "Yes!" In "Mr. Shang", she even played the optimistic and naive heroine Lu Xiaokui with a low IQ. This acting black hole is really hard to complain about.
In today's entertainment industry, casting is increasingly focused on traffic and popularity. Sometimes, whether you are suitable or not, you have to step aside. Just like Ouyang Nana in "Yong'an Dream", her acting skills and appearance are really not outstanding, but she has traffic, so she can play the leading role as the heroine, and she is still the "number one beauty"! This is the charm of the traffic era. Whoever masters the traffic password is the king!
But then again, it is not easy for the drama "Yongan Dream" to make a comeback. Judging from the trailer, the ancient puppets are full of routines and basically nothing new. It seems that if this drama wants to be popular, it needs to rely on something else!
