" Article 20 " achieved both word-of-mouth and box office success during the Spring Festival of 2024. Lei Jiayin , Chen Minghao , Zhang Yi , Wang Xiao , Fan Wei , Pan Binlong and other actors His acting skills have been highly recognized by the audience.

Actresses such as Ma Li , Gao Ye, Zhao Liying also received numerous praises for their performances, but at the same time it also brought up a question, which of the three actresses is the leading female lead in "Article 20" , who is the heroine of "Article 20", Li Maojuan, Lu Lingling or Hao Xiuping?

Regarding this issue, many netizens on the Internet have argued. Because of the differences in drama, image, publicity, attention, and traffic, this seemingly non-issue has become a problem on the Internet.

​ 1. Ma Li, who has the most roles

If we only talk about the appearance time and the number of roles, Li Maojuan, played by Ma Li, should be regarded as the heroine of "Article 20".

Li Maojuan has two advantages. One is that she is related to all three "Article 20" cases and participated to a greater or lesser extent, and this relationship is not just because she is Han Ming's wife.

In Wang Yongqiang’s case, Wang Yongqiang’s wife Hao Xiuping was not only a family member but also a key witness. She was also a victim of rape by Liu Wenjing. Ensuring the safety of Hao Xiuping and her daughter became a big deal. After all, Liu Wenjing’s father, Mr. Liu, had been trying to intimidate and induce her. Hao Xiuping changed her confession.

Li Maojuan took over the task assigned by her husband at this time and was responsible for taking care of Hao Xiuping's mother and daughter. Of course, it was also due to her negligence that Li Maojuan's daughter was almost kidnapped, which directly stimulated Hao Xiuping to jump off the building and indirectly prompted Kangcun villagers and witnesses to stand bravely. out.

In the case of Zhang Guisheng, since it was an old case that Han Ming had been following, Li Maojuan was also familiar with this case and helped Han Ming drive to chase Zhang Guisheng.

One more thing, the comedy effect of the scene where Han Ming and Li Maojuan shouted to Zhang Guisheng in the car that "impulse is the devil" was indeed full, but as Zhang Guisheng was suddenly hit by a truck, many viewers in the cinema screamed out, overjoyed, The switching of emotions between shock and sadness was unbearable for a while.

As Han Yuchen’s mother, Li Maojuan was Han Yuchen’s “main player” in preventing school bullying from injuring Zhang Ke. She and Han Ming met with the head teacher and Director Zhang many times, and got together with her husband and brother many times. After discussing the solution, we contributed two high-energy comedy scenes to the whole film.

The key is that Li Maojuan also had two head-to-head confrontations with Zhang Ke's father, Director Zhang, and the negotiation process between the two was full of situations that were overwhelming.

It can be said that although "Article 20" is not a pure comedy, the film still has many high-energy comedy scenes, and Li Maojuan is the funny person in this film.

The second advantage of Li Maojuan is that she has intersections with most of the main characters in the movie.

Li Maojuan is Han Ming’s wife, Han Yuchen’s mother, and Li Maoquan’s sister. At the same time, in the eyes of Director Zhang and the head teacher, she is Han Yuchen’s parent. In the eyes of Lawyer Chen, she is Prosecutor Han’s lover, and Deputy Captain Li of the Criminal Police Team. younger sister.

Li Maojuan met Lu Lingling, a female prosecutor and Han Ming's first love, through Han Ming, and met Wang Yongqiang's wife and daughter through Lu Lingling. Li Maojuan also met Zhang Guisheng through Han Ming.

Therefore, if we measure it from the number of scenes, the length of appearance, etc., Li Maojuan played by Ma Li is certainly the heroine of "Article 20".

2. Lu Lingling with a positive image

Gao Ye was first the assistant director in Zhang Yimou's film "The Love of Hawthorn Tree". She also had a small cameo role in the film. Although her subsequent acting career was not very bumpy, it was It’s also one step at a time. The biggest feature of her acting skills is that she doesn’t choose a role and can spread her wings easily. She can easily handle whether she is a high-end white-collar worker or a gangster sister-in-law. In "Article 20", Zhang Yimou had a keen eye for her to play the role. Lu Lingling, the most positive female prosecutor.

If there is any weakness in Li Maojuan, who has the most roles, it is that the image of this character is not so positive. She nags at home and even becomes "jealous" with Lu Lingling. In the end, she was administratively detained for accidentally injuring Director Zhang.

Compared with Li Maojuan, Lu Lingling's biggest characteristic is that she has a very positive image. In addition to her somewhat simple and rough working methods, she is impeccable in both professionalism and conduct.

In the case of Wang Yongqiang, Wang Yongqiang himself has pleaded guilty. Liu Wenjing's family, represented by Mr. Liu, is very powerful and often causes troubles. There are also many people in the procuratorate who hope to prosecute Wang Yongqiang as soon as possible.

If she simply implemented the legal terms, Lu Lingling would not bring any disadvantage to herself, and her superiors would not have any objections to her, but she still insisted on finding the "missing knife" and risking her life to protect Hao Xiuping. The purpose of mother and daughter is to restore the truth of the case. She has a very classic saying, what we handle is a case, but it is also other people's lives.

The male protagonist Han Ming gave a passionate speech at the end of the film that moved countless viewers. However, before Han Ming's speech, Lu Lingling also had a heart-stirring speech in the conversation between the two, which had a great impact on Han Ming.

From this perspective, it makes sense for us to say that Lu Lingling is the heroine of "Article 20".

3. The most talked-about Zhao Liying

Hao Xiuping, played by Zhao Liying, does not have many scenes. The key is that she is a deaf-mute in the film and can only express in sign language, which means that in the general sense, she has no Lines.

However, Hao Xiuping, played by Zhao Liying, has become a very popular topic on the Internet. The first reason is because of Hao Xiuping's tragic fate.

Hao Xiuping, as a deaf-mute, was raped many times by Liu Wenjing, played by Aruna. Although there are only a few scenes, it is shocking enough and can directly poke into the hearts of ordinary people.

In order to find witnesses for her husband, Hao Xiuping had to face the pursuit of Mr. Liu and his gang. In desperation, she did not hesitate to sacrifice her own life in exchange for the witness's awakening. Her silent confession before jumping off the building and her unhesitating leap. The jump also shocked the audience in the cinema.

The second reason why Hao Xiuping is a hot topic on the Internet is because of Zhao Liying herself. In our impression, Zhao Liying is better at playing well-behaved, smart, clever and cheerful characters. Playing the tragic Hao Xiuping is undoubtedly a good choice for her. A huge challenge, and at the same time, there is a huge gap for the audience.

Another possibility is that Zhao Liying's acting skills and performance are indeed remarkable. Therefore, a combination of multiple factors made Hao Xiuping, a character with only a few roles and no lines, become a hot topic on the Internet.

Don’t think that this kind of topic is just a hot topic, just like the sister-in-law in "Hurry Up", because this character left a deep enough impression on the audience that when "Hurry Up" is mentioned in the future, they will think of the sister-in-law. An Xin, played by Li Yitong, has less first love. Someone remembered.

​Similarly, if someone mentions "Article 20" in the future, I am afraid that the first and most easily remembered character is Hao Xiuping, played by Zhao Liying.
