urban drama "Cheng Huan Ji " is currently being broadcast on CCTV. In the drama, Yang Zi, Niu Junfeng, Wu Yanshu, He Saifei and other actors are deeply loved by the audience. But these two actors made people look at each other with their toes on the ground, extremely embarrassed.
Mai Chenghuan (played by Yang Zi) works in the sales department of a star hotel. He works diligently and takes great care of his family in life. She met her boyfriend Xin Jialiang (Niu Junfeng) because of a power bank, and later developed a relationship. She always thought that Xin Jialiang was an ordinary person who came to work in Shanghai from other places.
didn't learn about his identity as a second-generation rich man until he saw him at a reception. Due to Mai's mother's urging to get married, and because she felt that her three-year relationship with Xin Jialiang was not easy, she believed that they loved each other, so she reluctantly agreed to the proposal.
Under the bombardment of Mai's mother, Xin Jialiang arranged a meeting between the two families. As soon as Xin Jiali appeared on the scene, she looked mean. She would be late for dinner and make remarks at the dinner table that looked down on the Mai family and said they didn't want to see the Mai family.
sometimes asked Mai Chenghuan to help order food, and sometimes said that their consumption level was not at the same level. He even spoke rudely to Mai's father and pushed the fish tail to them... all kinds of sarcasm.
The actor Hu Dandan was a little intentional in his performance, which seemed a bit exaggerated and embarrassing. It makes people feel unnatural at first glance, and compared with Yang Zi in terms of acting, it forms a dimensionality reduction attack.
In terms of appearance, at first glance, you can see the overly plump apple muscles and pointed chin on the face of the "rich lady", which is full of technology and cannot be seen at all. I really want to fast forward as soon as she appears.
In contrast, Yang Zi looks very natural, and all the details of the performance are observed from the expression on the face to the emotional changes of the character.
At first, she didn't know that the Xin family was dissatisfied with them, and they didn't sincerely want to talk about marriage with them. They behaved generously and decently, and greeted them with smiles.
After hearing what Xin Jiali said, he asked her to order again. A trace of doubt and embarrassment flashed on her face. She didn't know if she did it on purpose. When
realized that she was deliberately looking for trouble, she was patient at first and found various reasons to resolve the embarrassment.
But when she bullied Mai's father and Mai's mother even more, she understood the intention behind the whole thing, and no longer tried to mediate to resolve the embarrassment, she threw her face and left. It's a smooth set, making it easy for people to get involved.
Every word of Xin Jiali feels very forceful, and the whole performance seems deliberate and contrived. Maybe it is what the instructors said. She knows what she is playing, but she cannot express the emotions of the character as naturally and smoothly as Yang Zi.
Including Chenghuan’s mother Liu Wanyu and Xin Jialiang’s mother Chen Dejing in the play, the contrast between the two is equally obvious.
Liu Wanyu is a woman deeply troubled by poverty. Her life is full of helplessness about the current situation and fear about the future. She is smart and capable, and has a strong desire to control family affairs. She takes care of everything from arranging her daughter's work to taking care of her daughter's food, clothing, housing and transportation.
She hopes that her daughter can fulfill her unfulfilled wish, but at the same time she is afraid that her daughter will follow her own path and spend her whole life doing trivial housework. This complex emotion makes Liu Wanyu's character appear both strong and contradictory.
He Saifei vividly demonstrated Liu Wanyu's ambivalence about wanting to control her daughter's future but fearing hurting the relationship between mother and daughter, allowing the audience to deeply feel the complexity and authenticity of this character.
In comparison, Xin Jialiang's mother Chen Dejing seemed a bit inadequate. She knew clearly that Xin Jiali's actions were inappropriate, but she remained silent and allowed her to attack the Mai family.
After all, this is a major event for her son to talk about marriage. No matter good or bad, facing such a dinner and such a situation, there should be some movement. But her eyes were dull and she kept sitting still. She felt like she was in a daze, and she felt completely emotionally. No response.
No matter who she was playing against, she acted very flatly. She couldn't see the inner turbulence and changes in her expression. She only expressed her emotions through some amplified movements, which always felt not three-dimensional. Maybe if these small characters were polished more carefully, would the show be better?
Of course, everyone has different feelings about watching the drama. Maybe they are not savvy enough to understand the emotions expressed. Do you think the actors in the play met your expectations?
