One year after the hit "Hurry Up", Zhang Songwen's first new drama is released. He also plays the villain, and the prototype is a drug lord with a legendary experience. It is full of attractions. However, the buzz in the early stages of this drama was almost entirely focused on the female lead - Anna Yao, who plays the role of a female anti-narcotics police officer.
Anna Yao is the second daughter of Huawei founder Ren Zhengfei. Since her debut in 2021, she has been facing the challenge of "fighting for her father" since her debut in the entertainment industry. In "Hunting Ice", she played the role of policewoman Zhao Younan, with a smart look She has short hair, a fierce and fierce personality.
However, after watching the drama, many netizens complained about her raw acting skills and insufficient dialogue skills. In the scene of a gun search, because her movements were too stiff, netizens complained about her "chicken-style acting".
However, some netizens said that this drama was very difficult at first sight. Yao Anna did all the action scenes such as running and fighting. At least she was willing to endure hardships and had a correct attitude. She was much better than some popular artists who cut out pictures and said letters.

Objectively speaking, Anna Yao's acting skills do have many shortcomings, but the problem of "Ice Hunting" is by no means limited to Anna Yao. There are many irrationalities in the plot logic of the show, there are many loopholes in many details, the service is very crude, and the shooting techniques are too original. Many netizens said that it felt like they were watching a documentary in the political column.
In response to the many controversies, director Gao Qunshu issued a long article in response. First, he supported Yao Anna, saying that she is very simple, has no trace of acting training, has a consistent image and temperament, has not had plastic surgery, and is very cooperative. Later, he emphasized that the whole drama was "very poor" and the reason why it was shot in a rough way was "on the one hand, the lack of budget, and on the other hand, we wanted to make a simple, documentary and rough drama to bring everyone back to the 20s." In the 1990s..." It can only be said that the "rough" feeling is there, but whether it is unpretentious or simple, the score of 4.7 reflects the audience's opinion from one side.
The crew's lack of money will indeed affect the quality of the series, but the audience has also spent real money to watch the series. It is understandable to have expectations. It is normal to complain if you think it is not good. Literary and artistic creators should be able to withstand the evaluation of the public. Confidence and broadmindedness.
To say that it "stands up to the evaluation", we have to mention Zhang Songwen, who "drags the aircraft carrier alone" in the drama. This is the first TV series he aired after the popularity of "Hurry Up", and he also acted. As the villain of "The Smiling Tiger", many viewers were worried that he was performing a fixed routine, but he used a textbook performance to portray the Chinese version of "Breaking Bad" Huang Chongwei in a vivid, three-dimensional, vivid and plump way.
He used his rich life accumulation and good details skills to make the performance layered and enjoyable. Therefore, even if Huang Zongwei is indeed somewhat similar to Gao Qiqiang in terms of personality and personality, the audience can still tell at a glance that this is not the "second Gao Qiqiang". He has his own unique indifference, selfishness, thoughtfulness, and arrogant ambition. And the desire is hard to fill.
Zhang Songwen’s performance in the drama filled in a lot of character details
Therefore, even though the drama caused a lot of controversy, Zhang Songwen received mostly praise. When Zhang Songwen responded to the drama’s controversy on Weibo, he also maintained his usual humility: "Every audience has reasons to like and dislike a film and television work. This is normal...Everyone takes the filming of every scene seriously and hopes to do their best. For me, the future is still I will do my best..." Being decent, friendly, strict with himself, and respectful to the audience and peers is very Zhang Songwen, and it is also the closest to what the audience thinks of an excellent creator.

"Hunting Ice" only has an investment of 40 million yuan, and it is a "shared drama" in which the film studio is responsible for its own profits and losses. In the online drama sector, it belongs to the bottom of the food chain, but the current broadcast popularity is close to 30,000, which is higher than what many platforms promote. The self-produced dramas are all high, ranking at the top of the lists on multiple data platforms. It is impossible to achieve such results just by complaining about Yao Anna and relying on quality. More people were attracted by Zhang Songwen's performance. It is not an exaggeration at all to say that he can carry a drama by himself. It can be seen that for viewers who just want to watch a drama well, a sincere attitude and powerful acting skills are the greatest "capital".
's diligent and dedicated professionalism, sincere love from the heart, the accumulation of every bit of rooted life, and the unremitting persistence of all-out efforts. Only with such quality and awareness can we hone ourselves and gain progress in every performance and every role. , to become a qualified or even excellent professional actor. A truly excellent actor will shine wherever he goes.
Just as Anna Yao said, if she can gain understanding of performance through her cooperation with Zhang Songwen and the audience’s criticism and suggestions, learn some practical skills, face her own shortcomings calmly, continuously improve her performance ability, and strive for If she can get the approval of the audience next time, then her performance in "Ice Hunting" will be considered not in vain, and the criticism will not be in vain.
