Recently, the TV series " Red Hot " was launched. The drama co-starred Huang Xiaoming, Wang Ou, Zhang Chao, Shi Shi, Li Zhiting. It is an urban entrepreneurial drama, mainly focusing on Huang Xiaoming Zhang Haichao, played by Zhang Haichao, tells the story of the struggle of a group of young people to start a business and promote the development of domestic science and technology.
The premiere performance of the show was not ideal. The ratings fluctuated greatly and gradually showed a downward trend. The situation was not optimistic.
In the play, Huang Xiaoming and Wang Ou play a loving couple. They play the male lead Haichao and the female lead Huang Linxi respectively. Wang Ou appears with long hair shawl, giving people a gentle and virtuous feeling. Huang Xiaoming is in a suit and leather shoes, very domineering. Overall feeling.
The plot of
is relatively high-energy at the beginning. The female protagonist was detained when she appeared because she violated relevant laws and regulations and was sent to a U.S. prison. This involved the technology company where the male protagonist worked. After some discussions, the male protagonist was involved in whether to divorce. Among the contradictions, on the one hand he couldn't bear the heroine, on the other hand he couldn't bear the company's image being damaged.
Then, the screen changed, and the story of love and entrepreneurship when the male and female protagonists were young began. At this time, the male protagonist was a college student of Tsinghua University.
Although Huang Xiaoming takes good care of himself, he plays a 46-year-old college student with a weathered face and sagging skin, which is really inconsistent. With such a face, it is really unconvincing that he is a college student.
There is a scene in the drama where the male protagonist is running with his classmates. Under the full-body camera, Huang Xiaoming is slightly hunched, the neck lines on his neck are exposed, and the wrinkles on his knees are obvious. No matter from which angle he looks, he has nothing to do with students.
Before that, Huang Xiaoming filmed "Summer of the Bubble" at the age of 33 and played a high school student in it, which was ridiculed by the crowd. Later, he gradually lost weight and reduced the filming of idol dramas. I thought he would transform, but he didn't expect that he would be even more exaggerated now, playing a college student at the age of 46.
However, in this drama, not only Huang Xiaoming is pretending to be young, but actually the whole cast is pretending to be young. Li Dongsheng, played by Zhang Chao, and Zhang Haichao, played by Huang Xiaoming, are classmates, and they are both top students at Tsinghua University. The 36-year-old has obvious pits on his face and many dark circles under his eyes, so he is not suitable for playing the role of a student.
Huang Zhongkai, played by Li Zhiting, is set to be a Chinese college student and a science talent, representing the University of Berkeley in the competition. At 37 years old, he is the youngest among the leading actors in terms of facial appearance, but he does not look like a teenager and it is embarrassing to play a student.
Although Wang Ou’s character is not a student, she is also set as a young person, a girl in her early twenties, young, beautiful and very fashionable. I saw that she was wearing an afro, which was very visually impactful. Her nasolabial folds were obvious and her skin color was yellow. Although she was still very beautiful, it was obvious to the naked eye that she was no longer young.
What’s more embarrassing than all the members pretending to be young is the plot. The female protagonist is an uneducated urban beauty who sells contact lenses. The male protagonist and others are top students from Tsinghua University. The female protagonist accidentally met each other in the process of selling contact lenses. The male protagonist, and then she quickly became involved with the male protagonist and other classmates.
This is very confusing. Do Tsinghua students have a lot of free time? How can they stay with sales every day? This is not the most embarrassing thing. Later, in the competition between Tsinghua students and Berkeley students, in order to spy on the enemy, a group of Tsinghua students asked the heroine selling glasses to go over and find out the details of the other party.
I really don’t understand the brain circuit of a screenwriter. Later, the heroine, as an inconspicuous salesperson, actually ate with the college students in Berkeley and asked about their calculation speed. As a result, the Berkeley students knew that the heroine was an undercover agent, so they used their tricks and talked more about calculations. Speed, and then the information on the male protagonist's side was wrong. In addition, the male protagonist wore a fake product sold by the female protagonist, and his eyes were injured and he lost the game.
is really off the mark. A group of Tsinghua students asked a salesperson to get information. This ordinary salesperson can also have dinner with important talents at Berkeley. The screenwriter's imagination is really incomprehensible.
is followed by a cliche plot. When the heroine saw the male protagonist wearing the contact lenses she sold, she fell in love with him and followed him every day.
The female protagonist praises the male protagonist in all kinds of ways, and calls him handsome whenever she disagrees. Brother Xiaoming's acting in this drama is like "going back to before liberation overnight". He finally succeeded in losing weight in the past two years, and now he is back. previous route.
In the process of pursuing the male protagonist, the female protagonist also did not forget to make money. She used the male protagonist's photos to make money, carried out false propaganda, and deceived those parents, saying that if students bought the learning machine "endorsed" by the male protagonist, they would be able to make money. Like the male protagonist, he was admitted to Tsinghua University. After being discovered and criticized by the male protagonist, the female protagonist still did not repent.
Such a female protagonist is really speechless, and the male protagonist is also indescribable. On the surface, she is very powerful, but in fact, she is just mediocre. After the show was aired, the screen was full of one-star negative reviews. The audience's comments were almost unanimous. They mainly talked about two aspects. One was that all the members were complaining about pretending to be young, and the other was that the plot was suspended, making people feel distracted and without a sense of involvement.
I can only say stop. Some screenwriters should not be too obsessed with their own world and look at reality more. The same is true for Huang Xiaoming and Wang Ou. They should have a clear understanding of themselves. At what age they will No matter what kind of drama you are acting in, forcing yourself to act tender will not work.
