There is something good to watch during the Spring Festival in 2024.
The competition between every film is extremely fierce. When a new film is scheduled to be released, every wave of publicity arouses crazy discussions among netizens.
Judging from the several films that have been scheduled, there is no doubt that this year’s Spring Festival will be dominated by comedies.
"Mr. Red Carpet" starring Andy Lau reproduces famous scenes in the entertainment industry in the trailer. Ning Hao is so "bold" that the audience must rush into the theater to "judge" him.
The dark horse sequel "Flying Life 2" released during the Spring Festival in 2019, with its familiar style and flavor and the core of passionate dream pursuit, it simply stepped on the audience's interest points.
and "Hello, Li Huanying" creators once again created "Hot and Spicy". Just the appearance of Jia Ling losing 100 pounds can arouse the curiosity of countless viewers.
Do you think this is over?
Of course not!
"Article 20" also joined the melee of the Spring Festival stalls. Sure enough, Lao Mouzi still couldn't let go of the big fat piece of the Spring Festival stalls.
Lei Jiayin performs steadily and is full of jokes
"Article 20" tells the story of the middle-aged prosecutor Han Ming (played by Lei Jiayin) who became a temporary prosecutor after being transferred from his job. He just wants to be safe in the workplace.
But after being accidentally involved in a series of cases, Han Ming decided to risk everything and use his own way to give fairness and justice a chance.
looks like this is a reality-themed movie, and in fact it is, but there are a lot of laughs in the trailer.
"What do you do?"
"I am also from the Procuratorate!"
"Get out!"
Han Ming mediates conflicts between the masses. As soon as he introduces his identity, he is pushed away by the masses.
"I want an explanation"
"Impulse is the devil, you will regret it if you go there"
The person involved in the case impulsively rode an electric car and drove wildly on the road. Han Ming and his wife chased after him in their car, shouting slogans as they chased.
With some free time, Han Ming was sitting on the electric car and was about to stretch his waist. Before he could do it, the electric car overturned and he was led to a row of electric cars.
Han Ming had an unlucky day, let alone Lei Jiayin's interpretation of this role, which added a lot of laughter.
When Han Ming, played by Lei Jiayin, introduced his identity to the crowd, he couldn't hide his smile. His arrogant little expression was full of showing off, which was in great contrast with the desolation after being beaten.
The laughter naturally collided. After
was beaten, in order to make himself look even worse, Han Ming picked up the net that was used to bandage the wound and put it on his head. His hands and head were busy for a while before he reluctantly put it on.
Lei Jiayin's dull expression and unstoppable movements looked like someone dancing with uncoordinated limbs. It was pitiful and ridiculous. After
was transferred, he unexpectedly discovered that he and his first love had become colleagues. He sat motionless at his work station and glanced over there seemingly casually, but his affectionate little eyes revealed his deliberate behavior.
After being teased by his colleagues as a "boy", Han Ming hurriedly retorted before he could swallow the food in his mouth. He choked on his food mid-sentence, but looking at his expression, his whole facial features were wrinkled with anger and he cursed very dirty words.
Lei Jiayin has simply given Han Ming a soul. At first glance, he looks like a simple and honest good man. The audience can get the characteristics of the character with almost no need to speak.
Zhao Liying's ability steals the spotlight, and her acting skills are recognized by Zhang Yimou
I believe that after watching the trailer of "Article 20", the audience rushed to the cinema to watch Han Ming played by Lei Jiayin.
However, the lineup of "Article 20" is not as luxurious as usual. Zhang Yi, Gao Ye, Wang Xiao in "Crazy", "Li Hongwei" Aruna, "Crazy Donkey" Wang Peilu, and Chen Minghao in "The Long Season" , Jiang Qiming, Liu Yitie, and Fan Wei all came.
also includes Ma Li, Yu Hewei, Li Naiwen, Xu Yajun, Liu Yaowen, etc. Who would not want to go to the theater after watching this lineup.
However, I never expected that among the many celebrities gathered in the film, the one that attracted the most attention turned out to be the one with only two scenes in the trailer -
's second female lead, Zhao Liying.
In the film, Zhao Liying plays the hearing-impaired Hao Xiuping, which is probably the biggest tear point in the entire film.
Since there are no lines throughout the whole process, emotions can only be conveyed through body movements and expressions. Therefore, the acting skills of the actors are very high, but in the few shots, you can feel the explosive power of Zhao Liying's performance.
In the film, Zhao Liying completely abandoned her idol baggage and appeared completely bare-faced, with messy hair on her face and simple floral linen clothes. Her gray face almost made the audience unrecognizable to her.
After learning that the child was lost, Hao Xiuping, played by Zhao Liying, burst into tears. She kept making sign language and opening and closing her mouth. She wanted to open her mouth to speak, hoping that someone could understand what she meant.
At this moment, Zhao Liying's expressions and movements showed the collapse of a mother who lost her child. The audience could feel her helplessness across the screen.
After searching for the child for a long time, she suddenly found that her child had been taken away. She rushed over and grabbed her child tightly. Since she could not speak, she could only open her mouth wide and shout "Ahhh" , trying to call for help.
The powerlessness of struggling and the mother's insistence on protecting her child to the death were perfectly interpreted by Zhao Liying, as if she had integrated into the character and expressed the character's truest emotions.
Zhao Liying's performance directly grabbed the audience's heart and made people sympathize with the character. Zhao Liying played the role so well.
Zhang Yimou, who collaborated with Zhao Liying for the first time, couldn't help but praise her at the "Article 20" press conference -
"I didn't expect she gave me a big surprise."
Zhang Yimou even said bluntly that when the audience Entering the theater, Zhao Liying will also give the audience a big surprise.
has received such high praise for their first collaboration. I can’t imagine how exciting Zhao Liying’s performance will be in the feature film. Anyway, I can’t wait.
It is worth mentioning that at the "Article 20" press conference, Zhao Liying wore a white suit and sat firmly in the C position of the audience.
During the group photo at the scene, Sister Zhao still stood firmly in the C position next to the director. This was enough to show everyone's recognition of Zhao Liying.
Conclusion:
In fact, actors can be recognized by the audience and the industry because of their acting skills.
Zhao Liying is the best example. She has always been a breath of fresh air in the entertainment industry. Before she became famous, she worked hard on her roles no matter how small. Starting from a small role, she gradually received the script of the heroine.
After becoming famous, Zhao Liying did not compete for hype and traffic like other female celebrities. Instead, she acted steadily and brought rave reviews to the audience one after another.
Many netizens even nicknamed her "Zhao Liyin". Once she joined the team, she did not participate in any red carpets or activities. She calmed down to study the role, while maintaining the mystery of an actor.
believes that Zhao Liying's performance in "Article 20" will definitely surprise the audience.
