Li Xian, Ren Min, Zhou You, and Wang Zixuan star in the suspense spy drama "When the Stars Shine", which has been announced to be broadcast on Hunan Satellite TV on April 15.
The financial spy drama "Storm Chaser" starring Wang Yibo , Li Qin will be launched on Zhejiang Satellite TV's prime time slot for the second time on April 12.
The spy war drama "Harbin 1944" starring Qin Hao , Yang Mi is currently scheduled to be broadcast on April 20, and will star on Oriental and Beijing Satellite TV.
The four satellite TV stations are basically the most influential and highest-rated local satellite TV stations in my country. They launched their own spy dramas at the same time. What's even more coincidental is that the leading actors in several spy dramas are mainly traffic-oriented. Yang Mi, Wang Yibo, and Li Xian can be said to be some of the top celebrities. It can be seen that these works are the type of direction that traffic users want to transform and try. However, at first glance, they seem to be the main ones, but the actual situation is that they need help from others.
Traffic transformation is not easy
Don’t think that traffic can make all the difference, just stamp your foot and the entertainment industry will tremble. After traffic is labeled as traffic, it has been difficult to take off the label.
Take Yang Mi as an example. Li Shaohong early on cultivated Yang Mi in the direction of becoming a Zhengdan. It can be seen in many dramas at the beginning of her debut that she had a certain foundation of acting skills, but it was just too template-like. To this day, Yang Mi still uses a formula to perform all emotions. After she is defined as traffic, it seems that it indirectly means that she has no acting skills. In fact, Yang Mi still has it, otherwise it would be impossible for so many roles over the years to leave a deep impression on everyone.
Another example is Li Xian. He also worked as a minor star in many online dramas in the early days. He originally took it one step at a time, but ended up taking a shortcut and filming "Dear, My Loved " with Yang Zi. Overtaking in corners and counterattacking became traffic, and people subconsciously equated him with those with poor acting skills.
For a long time, many traffickers hope that they can be recognized. Unfortunately, because they are too prestigious and lack the reputation of "traffic", people have always been unable to accept that they also have certain acting skills.
gives another opposite example. There are also many so-called gangster actors in the entertainment industry. They are not particularly famous, and their acting skills may not be as good as those with traffic. But just because there is no traffic, they can always remain invisible. Sometimes you can keep a low profile until you reach an advanced age, and you still have the nerve to say that you are a capable person. If you compare it like this, popular actors are also very frustrated. They have no choice but to make more money, be popular, and have many fans.
Spy Game has a relatively low threshold.
Traffic cannot be traffic all your life. Time will always pass by. Excellent works are the confidence to walk in the entertainment industry. The current three to five years may still be in the limelight. In ten or eight years, if you want to continue filming, you must quickly transform.
But then again, is the transformation just what they want? Idol dramas are definitely not allowed to be filmed, but a great director who can train actors will not let these traffic people sincerely let them take the leading role in making a movie. Ever since, everyone can see that for a while, many popular actors all plunged into the big pit of suspense dramas.
Suspense dramas have experienced periodic blowouts, and everyone has seen it before. However, the proliferation of a drama genre can lead to predictable results: the drama becomes less and less innovative, and the quality of the scripts gradually declines. Most of the time, the drama is loud but the rain is small.
So at this juncture, if these traffic actors want to transform, what kind of approach should they take?
A costumed Machiavellian drama? The cost is too high and unrealistic, and the chances of a costume drama becoming a star are too low now.
main theme historical drama? Generally, older actors are required, and there are few works that make the audience stay up all day long.
urban life drama? I really don’t know whether it should be difficult for the actors or the screenwriters. Most urban life dramas are superficial and do not dare to delve deeply into the pain points of society.
looked at the past, there is also a spy drama.
is one of the classic film and television themes of domestic dramas, and many excellent works have been produced in this genre. Many actors stand out through spy dramas and reach a high position in the entertainment industry. For example, Yao Chen used "Latent" to wash away Guo Furong's label. A good spy drama can help a comedian with such a high national popularity change his impression, not to mention how much opportunity it gives to popular actors.
In addition, spy dramas have great advantages in terms of production costs and chances of passing review. Shooting a spy drama, on the one hand, allows the popular actors to temporarily take off their idol attire, without having to wear modern clothes or ancient costumes. The costumes of the Republic of China are very unique. On the other hand, this type of drama has a relatively good reputation, and actors can also establish a positive attitude towards their own development. All in all, we hit it off right away.
Strong actors are telling the truth
The real and most critical question is, who are the audiences of people who have always loved spy dramas? Relatively speaking, they tend to be middle-aged and above.
If you look back on the years when spy war dramas were about gods fighting, you can figure out who loves spy war dramas the most. When we look at the lineup of these spy war dramas that will meet you soon, we can actually find clues.
Yang Mi partners with Qin Hao; behind Wang Yibo is Wang Yang; as for Li Xian, there is a gathering of powerful actors. Maybe viewers who like to watch spy dramas won't pay for these traffic stars, but they will definitely pay for these actors they like.
Anyway, if you want to transform and gain recognition from the audience, choosing the right path and having someone to help you are indispensable.
