Among them, Goose Factory is far ahead on the popularity list with " and Fengxing ". The appeal of the top Zhao Liying can be imagined. But Taochang was not to be outdone, and used the period spy game "Wind Chaser" to pursue him. Compared with Wang Yibo and Li Qin, the duo of "Xingyue CP" Zhao Liying and Lin Gengxin is obviously more attractive.
In addition, dramas such as "Little Days" and "Huajian Ling" have also gained the favor of many drama fans, and the data is quite impressive. With so many popular dramas on the horizon, can any new work stand out? Don't tell me, it really does.
Now " Today's Girls " is officially launched. Only one day after it was launched, the rating is as high as 8.8, which shows that the popularity is extraordinary.
At the same time, Douban's word-of-mouth review was released. Seeing all the four-star and five-star reviews, the audience finally let go of their hanging hearts.
I watched 3 episodes in one go, and I just want to say, if urban female dramas are shot like this, why worry about not being a hit?
Slow life + fast-paced workplace, comprehend the secrets of life on the tip of the tongue
"Today's Them" tells the story of a Chengdu girl Lu Zhenzhen ( Song Yi ) who originally had a sweet love and a successful career in Beijing, but because of being cheated by Liang Qingran in a hotel, ( Charmaine Sheh ) was forced to resign due to an acquisition, and her boyfriend was poached back to work in Chengdu. This put the man who originally wanted to stay in Beijing and continue to work hard into a dilemma.
Although it is an urban female drama, the drama presents an extraordinary viewing quality. The camera focuses on one of the four major cuisines in China - Sichuan cuisine. It takes Chengdu on the tip of the tongue as the main line, interspersed with three urban Women's pursuit of career and love are two major highlights that make the audience unable to take their eyes away.
The first highlight: the hot Chengdu food.
It can be said that the entire drama "Today's Girls" revolves around Sichuan cuisine. The beginning is full of life. Gu Dapeng ( Zhang Guoli ) took his apprentice Chen Dong ( Zhang Chao ) to the street to buy food. When he came back, he cooked a large table of food for the old employee who had a birthday, including round glutinous rice balls. When served, it was truly mouth-watering.
Later, Lu Zhenzhen had dinner with her boyfriend. Faced with her boyfriend’s confusion about business, Lu Zhenzhen directly demonstrated to him with food. A bowl of crystal clear ice powder was served on the table. Just hearing the description made me want to have it directly. bowl.
The second biggest attraction: neat working women.
As an outstanding entrepreneur and investor, Liang Qingran moved all the way from Hong Kong to Chengdu, and was bound to show off her talents. Her eyes were also directly set on the time-honored Chuanbailou. Then he went to Beijing to acquire a hotel and recruit qualified talents for himself. Step by step, he worked steadily and demonstrated the decisiveness of contemporary urban women at work.
And Lu Zhenzhen went all the way north from Chengdu and became a member of the Beidiao drifters. With his outstanding ability, he became the manager of the Beijing Hotel. During the interview, she did not lose her composure in the face of sudden accidents and difficulties from customers. However, she solved the whole matter gracefully, allowing the audience to see her outstanding professionalism.
There is no doubt that this drama handles the career line in a calm and impetuous manner, just like a kitten jumping into the arms and acting coquettishly, tickling the hearts of the audience. The food scenes of
put the audience on the scene in Chengdu. The aroma of the food can be smelled through the screen, making people want to buy tickets and go to Chengdu for a big meal.
It can be said that "Today's Them" is very high-level in terms of narrative. It can not only ensure the audience's demands for women in the workplace, but also ensure the depth of the content and show the sense of mission of Sichuan cuisine inheritance. Just three episodes are simply not enough to watch. But the most attractive thing is the actors' performance.
The national first-class actors are the voice actors, and the actors are so eye-catching
For an urban drama to be successful, it is crucial to choose the right actors. "Today's Them" allows people to see the director's unique vision. It is voiced by national first-class actors, and all the actresses are beautiful and strong. Two words can describe it, stable.
No. 1, Zhang Guoli
As a national first-class actor, Zhang Guoli's acting ability is beyond doubt. The character Zheng Gang he played in " is as Solid as a Rock" is decent on the outside, but extremely corrupt on the inside, perfectly interpreting what "sanctimonious" means.
In the new drama, Zhang Guoli appears as a happy old man with a gold chain, riding a motorcycle and wearing big sunglasses, in excellent condition.
Facing the crumbling restaurant, Zhang Guoli's grief when he wanted his son-in-law to help but was rejected was very immersive. You can feel the character's inner depression through the screen. In urban dramas, there is such an old actor Gu sets the tone at the beginning and his acting is solid.
Second place, Charmaine Sheh
As the Best Actress at the Huading Awards, Charmaine Sheh directly broke the TVB record with her role as Wen Huixin in "News Queen" and became TVB's first triple crown.
In the new drama, Charmaine Sheh plays the ambitious investor Liang Qingran. She is full of momentum when she appears on the stage, and her every move is clean and neat. Although this character is also a tough leader, the audience will not be attracted to the role of Wen Huixin.
In a scene where she met an old friend, Charmaine Sheh was originally determined to control her diet, but when her friend took out a burger, her eyes lit up and she said she couldn't eat it, but the next second she was directly attracted by the smell. After taking a big bite, a few expressions showed the character's playfulness and agility, making the character more vivid and three-dimensional.
In third place, Song Yi
"The Pretender" allowed the audience to see Song Yi's ability to shape characters. The subsequent "Qing Yu Nian " and "The Son-in-Law" allowed the audience to see her solid acting skills.
In the new drama "Them Today", Lu Zhenzhen, played by Song Yi, is playful and cute. As a hotel manager, when encountering emergencies, Song Yi behaves calmly and generously, and every move is calm and powerful. His dialogue skills are even more powerful, and he firmly establishes the character's image as soon as he appears.
I have to say that Song Yi is indeed an all-round actor. The urban drama "Today's Us" is inseparable from Song Yi's life-oriented acting skills.
In addition, "Today Us" also invited many powerful actors such as Li Chun, Zhang Chao, Wang Renjun, Li Junxian to sit in. With so many acting talents gathered together, there is no need to worry about the characters of this drama. .

's cookie-cutter plot and mindless characters have repeatedly disappointed the audience. But this "Today's Girls" finally allows people to see more possibilities of domestic urban dramas, life lines, sweetness and abuse intertwined. Professional line, full of refreshing feeling.
