's recent popular new dramas include costumes, espionage, suspense... There are all popular themes on the screen in recent years, but there is still a lack of a genre that is suitable for all ages, period dramas.
From the popular " longing for ", to the popular " Parents' Love " for ten years, to the ratings champions " human world " and " blossoms " in the past two years...
era With the broadest audience base and content that arouses emotional resonance among the audience, the drama has repeatedly set off crazes such as "national drama watching" and "discussions across generations".
However, period dramas seem to have fallen into silence since the beginning of the new year. Which drama is likely to become the next hit?
Just recently, the TV series " Six Sisters " was completed, and the final special episode was released. At the same time, the lineup was officially announced.
So, what potential does this "Six Sisters" have to become a hit period drama? Let’s take a look.
Highlights 1
The story focuses on the ups and downs of the three generations of women in the He family. It is real and heart-breaking.
As the saying goes, "Six women, one drama", what will happen to the eight women?
"Six Sisters" is adapted from Yi Bei's novel of the same name. The drama revolves around the story of the old lady of the He family, her daughter-in-law Liu Meixin, and six granddaughters, and the story between three generations.
In the 1950s, the male head of the He family, He Changsheng, moved his family from Jiangdu, Yangzhou, to Huainan, Anhui Province in order to support socialist construction.
He longed to have a son to continue the family line, but in the next twenty years he had six daughters.
After his death in a car accident, the old lady of the He family took her daughter-in-law Liu Meixin and six granddaughters, ushering in the era of women taking charge of the family...
Overall, the plot has many highlights that can arouse the audience's interest.
One is the ups and downs of the personal fate of the six sisters of the He family.
The play spans a long time, from the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China to the new century.
In the play, the experiences of the six sisters of the He family have gone through many twists and turns, and their fate is intertwined with the times.
Their identities, experiences, and stories are the epitome of the reality of ordinary people in China at that time, which also makes it easy for the audience to resonate with the experiences and emotions of the characters in the play.
For example, Mei Ting plays He Jiali. Her status as the boss has created her hard-working, enterprising, tenacious and courageous character.
After her father passed away, He Jiali gradually became the backbone of the He family, controlling the family with her grandmother.
However, as the eldest sister, she often had conflicts with her younger sisters because of her strong sense of responsibility.
He Jiawen, played by Gao Lu, is the second sister of the He family and the one with the best conditions.
But she did not fight for it, so she lost the opportunity to become a gymnast and Peking opera actor, and finally became an ordinary worker.
After losing her husband in middle age, she handled the complicated relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law with a calm and sober attitude.
Another example is the fourth child, He Jiahuan, who was almost abandoned by his mother at the train station.
Perhaps because of this experience, she worked hard to change her destiny and became the only person in her family who used knowledge to change her destiny.
He Jiahuan, played by Wu Qian in this drama, represents the pioneers who dare to be the first after the reform and opening up. They are the pioneers of the times.
It is not difficult to see that the play takes the joys and sorrows and the ups and downs of fate of the six sisters of the He family as the main line, supplemented by a strong realism background, thus outlining the changes in the family life of ordinary people after the founding of New China.
The second is that it shows the cruelest reality of life and is resonant.
There is always a battle between brothers and sisters for their parents' resources or favor.
When the story revolves around a family with many children, there must be a lot of conflicts and realistic portrayals.
Each of the six sisters has their own little plan, and the mother's partiality also adds fuel and jealousy to the fight between the six sisters.
However, these grievances and hatreds are ultimately not worth the reconciliation of fate and the love of flesh and blood in blood.
"You will never be able to compare with the second sister."
"I don't care, I will decide dad's job.""
" I don't want you to do my son's job, I want him back. "
Just seeing these lines and clips in the trailer makes people suffocate, real and heartbreaking.
The story of "Six Sisters" will inevitably make people think of "家有九风".
This The old drama has a score of 8.9 on Douban. It tells the life story of a mother and her nine daughters.
To this day, this drama is still a classic in the hearts of many viewers, which shows how great the period drama is.
Judging from the script. , "Six Sisters" can also score, the original novel has a score of 9.3 on Douban.
Previously, three novels by writer Yibei have been adapted into films and broadcast, namely "Xiao Min's Family", "Mature Years" and " Little Days ". ".
Although the quality of these dramas varies, the topics of family, middle-aged marriage, education, and various aspects of life that involve laughter and tears have aroused heated discussion on the Internet.
This time, he is also responsible for this drama. The script is written by my own mother, so I believe the quality is guaranteed.
Point 2,
A substantial starring cast, 15 talented actors, both good looks and acting skills.
era drama wants to get out of the industry, the actor's career. Acting skills are also one of the keys.
In order to create a distinct group portrait, "Six Sisters" also invited a group of powerful actors, who must have good looks and acting skills.
First of all, the absolute leading role is Mei Ting, who plays the eldest sister He Jiali. .
Mei Ting has played countless classic roles.
The most well-known ones are Mei Xiangnan in "Don't Talk to Strangers" and An Jie in "Parents Love".
She is very familiar with period dramas.
This "Six Sisters" is her first challenge in a period drama that spans many years.
The role has also advanced from a little girl like An Jie to the eldest sister He Jiali. Highest expectations for this drama.
"I have never been selfish at all for this family these years. "
When she said this, Mei Ting did not have too much emotion, but this feeling of grievance and forbearance is exactly the true state of the eldest daughter of many ordinary families.
Give this role to her, it is stable.
Highlights , her various looks are very contemporary, making people dream of An Jie.
Surprisingly, there are also starring roles by Gao Lu, Ying Er, Wu Qian, Cao Feiran, Li Jiaqi, and Dong Jie, which make this drama more interesting. Good looks and good acting skills.
From Lin Xiaoniang in "Do You Know" to Wu Fei in " is good ", the strength of Mesozoic actress Gao Lu was finally seen in "Six Sisters". "In ", Gao Lu plays the role of He Jiawen, the second daughter of the He family. The bride's appearance in the behind-the-scenes is very beautiful.
Wu Qian, who debuted as the campus beauty of Wuhan University, made the audience remember her with her role as "Little Mo Sheng" in the hit drama "Why Sheng Xiao Mo". In "Six Sisters", Wu Qian plays the fourth daughter He Jiahuan, who is quite unique.
The fifth daughter Liu Xiaoling and the sixth daughter He Jiaxi are played by Cao Feiran and Li Jiaqi respectively.
In addition, Dong Jie plays the role of Zhang Qiufang in the play. The appearance is very contemporary.
Judging from the character profile, she is a gentle and upright female image, which fits her own image.
In addition to these seven actresses, she plays the role of the eldest sister He Jiali's husband in the play. Lu Yi is also an old acquaintance in Chinese dramas.
Fans of the drama should all know that this is not the first time that the two of them have collaborated. They have filmed the movie "血色心" a long time ago.
Mei Ting and Lu Yi were both young at the time. This was also Mei Ting's first work. She was only 19 years old at the time.
This time the "old faces" in the "top drama" reunite again. What kind of chemical reaction will there be in the new drama?
The supporting roles are even more eye-catching.
For example, Xi Meijuan made the producer want to cry in the extras.
From Empress Dowager Cixi to various mother figures, her ability to control roles is obvious to all. Having won the Golden Rooster Award for Best Actress twice, she is a well-deserved industry benchmark.
This time, she plays the role of the old lady of the He family in the play, which is also very exciting.
and Liu Jun, who plays the father of the six sisters.
He has played many "scumbag dads", and his role this time seems not to be likeable.
It is worth mentioning that he and Gao Lu played husband and wife in "Do You Know", and this time they reunited and became a father and daughter.
Wu Junmei plays the mother of the six sisters. This time she and Mei Ting, who is 9 years younger, interpret the mother-daughter relationship, which is also full of topics and highlights.
In addition to the 11 actors mentioned above, this drama also has Lin Yongjian, Li Chen, Li Jian, Shen Yue and other talented actors joining the cast. There are no less than 15 talented actors and a strong lineup.
Point 3:
The solid shooting and production make people fall into the drama in one second.
In addition to the high-quality script and excellent actors, the production team of this drama also makes people feel relieved.
director Lou Jian has won awards from major film and art festivals. His representative works include "The Mask", "Secrets of Jinling" and "Spirit and Flesh".
No one expected that a drama director would "change his profession" to make low-cost online dramas and become popular.
The 2021 dark horse detective drama "Yu Ci Xiao Wu Zuo" was written by him, and the Douban score remains at 8 points so far.
Such a small-cost online drama with no traffic stars and no big IP blessing can be so successful, which shows the director's skill.
Judging from the final episode, the filming and production of the show is also very solid.
In order to create a period drama that truly fits that era, the crew worked hard on the details.
, for example, is very attentive to scene restoration and strives to be "real".
They chose to shoot in Huainan, where the story takes place, and built the main scene on an open space covering an area of over 10,000 square meters.
The high-rise and low-rise building communities in the play are all built on real scenes. The brick and tile buildings have a sense of age, restoring the style of Huainan, a small city on the bank of the Huaihe River in the last century.
From spring and autumn to winter and summer, the presentation of the pictures is completely real.
Scenes full of fireworks and a sense of life also make the play more textured.
In addition, the team behind the scenes also spared no effort to restore details such as props and costumes. The entire crew has more than 50,000 props and more than 10,000 actor costumes.
In the lens, a dozen-inch small color TV, a Double Happiness washbasin and other old objects from the last century flash by. We all used one or two of them when we were children, which makes people instantly resonate.
There are always some parents who are short-sighted, and looking at them will drag people back to the past.
It is not difficult to see that "Six Sisters" is a drama suitable for the whole family to watch. Now that it has been completed, the time for its broadcast is not far away.
Qingshi asserts that "Six Sisters" may become the next "king bomb" of period dramas, and hopes that it will bring sincere touching to the broad audience.
