On the evening of August 19, the popular Xiaosheng Wang Yibo starred in the series "My Strange Friend" premiered. The reason why the
series has attracted attention is because of the gimmick starring Wang Yibo: the resident host of the well-known variety show "Everyday Upward", who played the male protagonist Lan Wangji in the phenomenon-level hot drama " Chen Qingling " in 2018. These two identities made Wang Yibo explode and became a popular niche, which also gave the three-year backlog of "My Strange Friend" a chance to go online.
Judging from the plot setting, "My Strange Friend" is positioned as a light comedy. The story of
takes place on the super-powered teenager Wei Yichen. Due to an accident in childhood, the potential in Wei Yichen’s body was stimulated by an alien meteorite, thus possessing teleportation, mind-reading , predicting, discharging, and taking away from space. Things and other superpowers.
is a young man who doesn't know how to control superpowers, so he becomes an alien in the eyes of others and has to avoid the crowd.
Fortunately, life is not always bitter. Fortunately, Wei Yichen met a kind-hearted professor. After all the hardships, he helped Wei Yichen find a warehouse with a stable magnetic field and return to normal life with the help of the magnetic field.
One day after he became an adult, Wei Yichen was attacked and lost his superpowers. At the same time, the notebook that recorded the secret of Wei Yichen's abilities also disappeared strangely. In order to retrieve his superpowers, Wei Yichen embarked on a different adventure...
, due to the backlog after production for three years, the audience did not have much expectations for "My Strange Friend". Due to the complexity of Wang Yibo's fan base, comments were polarized after going online. Fans were full of five stars to encourage idols, while black fans all counterattacked with one star, deliberately discrediting.
The question that follows is, is "My Strange Friend" really worth watching? The answer to this little bit by
is that there are a lot of laughs in the drama, and the characters are also full and three-dimensional, which adds a lot to the story. Boutique dramas are not counted, but they are really a good choice when they are bored to pass the time and serve meals.
Let’s talk about this first. 5 minutes before
is billed, it was a hilarious scene where Wei Yichen found out that he had lost his superpower. Facing the "underworld" members in the house who were staring at him, Wei Yichen tried his best.
In the first step, he opened his hands with a solemn expression, preparing to fetch things from the air, and failed.
In the second step, the eyes are firm and the feet jump up, the teleporting posture is ready, and it fails again.
imagined it was a domineering scene that easily brought down the gangsters in the house, but in reality, it is a poor worm who has lost his superpower. The operation was as fierce as a tiger, but it was useless.
Imagine that the superpowers in the movie are releasing super powers, but there are no special effects in the screen. How funny should the scene be?
is no wonder that Wei Yichen is watched by the people around him "watching a monkey playing a circus". All of a sudden, a sense of comedy came out.
In addition, the setting of "Wei Yichen's only remaining mind-reading super ability can only be triggered by touching the opponent's cheek" in the story is also very fun. In order to explore the other party's inner thoughts, Wei Yichen started to touch her face when she didn't agree, so she got many slaps in the face, miserable and funny.
is not about making jokes rigidly, but starting from the setting of the story background and the character of the characters, rationalizing the jokes. This episode is very well done.
is followed by the character image setting. The main line of the
story is Wei Yichen's process of regaining his superpowers. During this period, Wei Yichen discovered that his superpowers were scattered and transferred to the other six students. At the same time, he also discovered that an evil force was eyeing his superpowers. . Against the background of the story of
, the protagonist’s character setting should be biased towards the heroic character, responsible and strategic, but "My Strange Friend" took a counter-routine, setting Wei Yichen to have a super high IQ but a zero EQ. Qingqi image.
He is the one who gives the idea when encountering difficulties, and he is also the one who loses the chain due to emotional intelligence when confronted with the villain, which makes people love and hate.
The villain is also very interesting here, and the contract is to laugh at the scene: some people see the wind and the rudder is strong, stand on which side; some people can't stop the medicine for face blindness, and an electric stick treats his own as an enemy corona. After finishing, I looked proud: I defeated the enemy, it was amazing!
In the plot structure, Wei Yichen led the superpower team and the villain's confrontation process is a little trivial, many times winning is too simple. The screenwriter and director of
should have noticed the bugs in the plot, so set up these interesting personalities, hoping that the audience's attention can be put on the drama conflicts brought about by different characters' personalities.
So are there any shortcomings in "My Strange Friend"? The answer to this question is yes.
Compared with the corner of Lan Wangji in "Chen Qing Ling" in 2018, Wang Yibo's performance in this play is obviously much greener. The expressions and emotions are blunt, and the performance traces are heavy. But considering that "My Strange Friend" was filmed before "Chen Qing Ling", it is indeed excusable. Such performances can only satisfy fans, passers-by will not buy it.
There is another fatal flaw in the series, that is, the jump between plot and plot is too fast. The content of the previous storyline of
has not been explained clearly, so it skips to the next plot, and the audience can't keep up.
was probably due to insufficient funding during filming. There were a lot of "completely deleteable shots" in the drama, and the time length was too much to affect the development of the main story.
"My Strange Friend" is a funny story, but this funny is limited to Wang Yibo's fan group, and we will keep waiting for the episode to be updated. The story line for finding superpowers is not enough to attract other audiences, and it is destined that the show will not become a hit.
In addition, the five-star reviews and one-star bad reviews of "My Strange Friend" on Douban app are also worthless. It is completely a carnival between fans and black fans.
is a sand sculpture drama, "My Strange Friend" is worth opening, but if it is for other drama needs, such as high-quality dramas, high-quality dramas, "My Strange Friend" is completely unsuitable for these titles.
