"Hunting Ice " directed by Gao Qunshu, starring Zhang Songwen and Yao Anna has been completed. This drama really shows that the crew is really poor in terms of picture quality and service. It’s not that this drama is very exciting. There are almost no big hit dramas on the entire market in February. If there is a shortage of dramas, you can watch it.
This drama is quite lucky. After filming, Zhang Songwen became popular, and there were almost no big hit dramas in the market during the same period. Therefore, this poor drama has become a hit drama.
Of course, Zhang Songwen's acting skills are really attractive. On the other hand, Yao Anna's recklessness also provides this drama with a lot of popular short video emotional value, which can be said to be a hit. I won’t analyze the TV series today, but let’s make a certain analysis from a few additional points.
is an adaptation of real events. There is no heroine in the original work? "Hunting Ice" is quite rare.
1. The drama "Hunting Ice" is now over. Many netizens may know that this book is a documentary novel written by Guo Guosong. It was published by Guangdong People's Publishing House in April 2023. publishing. It tells the story of an ordinary chemistry teacher in China who started his extraordinary journey of "ice hunting" after being accidentally exposed to drugs.
Relying on his wisdom and courage, he went deep into the tiger's den and launched life-and-death struggles with drug traffickers, and eventually became an important informant of the Chinese public security department.
Of course, this is an introduction. The real incident is Liu Zhaohua, the famous leader of the five major drug lords (the drug lord who does not sell drugs to Chinese people)
The original work is a rare and excellent Chinese anti-drug novel (it tells the story from beginning to end about the police handling the case) It’s evidence, evidence!) (One-to-one filming of a TV series will never pass the review). However, the role of the Second Princess does not exist in the original work. It was added by the screenwriter. I won’t say much about how the Second Princess was filmed. Everyone’s eyes are sharp. (The second princess’s case is about: she thinks, she feels)
There is a fragment in the TV series, the second princess: The rest of you are wrong, the ambition of the sparrow is the ambition of the swan. The original work does not have this character, let alone this line.
The reason is that there was no police line in the script at the beginning. It was added just to pass the review. Even though it was added, I was not satisfied with it, but the screenwriter said it couldn't be changed and hired another Gaoming. It was like this because there was no money. This Liu Zhaohua, the most important reason for not selling out to the country is that the country is strict. He still wants to live in the country. He was on the run for nine years and finally returned to his hometown before he was caught. To be honest, without Zhang Songwen, this drama would definitely have been buried.
2. The biggest problem with this drama is that the production level is very poor. Coupled with the scale and character lines, the script problems are very serious. The pace is fast and slow, the texture is good and bad, not to mention the acting is uneven, and there is the disconnection problem caused by the villain and the protagonist of the script.
Zhang Songwen really tried his best in this drama. He is very good at acting, but when he meets a bunch of people who can't act, it will seem a bit awkward in the drama, but he can still tell with just one look that he has feelings for Ami, and Aaron's hesitant speech can reveal the hidden disdain and arrogance, and many details are revealed in a cold-blooded manner.
These clips were all removed, so some of his deleted clips were shown to attract some attention. His dramas are not promoted even when Penguin doesn't have major dramas. B-level dramas have been broadcast to an S+ level, and they haven't received many hot searches and promotions (most of them are about the second princess).
became popular because of his chicken-style acting? Wang Hailin commented on Yao Anna, wrong
The biggest topic and gimmick of this drama now is actually Yao Anna. Her acting skills are indeed not good, but her image is actually more in line with the character of this policewoman. But the acting was poor and the script was messy, which ultimately led to terrible effects. Many of the clips were also magical, and netizens were very happy.
What Wang Hailin said is undoubtedly more representative.Let's see what Wang said about Anna Yao;
"We are not afraid that the rich second generation will lose their ambition with their toys, but they are afraid that the rich second generation will be complacent."
If you don't have the natural conditions and acting talent, don't go to the Huohuo circle!
Wang Hailin said bluntly, yes, you have a dream. Everyone has the right to pursue their dreams, but this does not mean that your choice is naturally correct. Many rich second-generation men like to play games. You can buy a team and be the boss, but you have to be the boss. The team members' operation seems a bit excessive; the second princess may be used to being spoiled by her old age, and she uses her usual pursuit of stars in the audience to cash in
Wang Hailin said: Li Tie also has a dream, but you can't say that his dream is naturally correct!
However, I see that many netizens criticize Yao Anna, but there are also many people who think she is okay, and some even praise her. So what is the reason? I think there are probably two points.
1. One thing to say is that the second princess is terrible at acting, and the character fits her personality quite well. Although the chicken-style acting is very magical, she is so dark that she naturally loves her. Sometimes I feel that this character is so naive that it is quite fun.
Moreover, I have watched the Chicken Soufun movie several times. The real blame here should be Gao Qunshu’s. The camera position design is beyond human ability, and there is no sense of rhythm in either the positioning or the editing. The strength and quickness of the movements of the second princess are actually better than that of a lot of male meat, but in this section that is supposed to increase tension and immersion, if he doesn't nod, who dares to go through it like this?
is also searching the house. There are ready-made textbooks on the stairs of "Mobile Force" directed by Johnnie To, and I don't even copy them. It can only be said that Gao Qunshu didn't care at all when he took this job, and he probably didn't expect this film to be really successful. On top of that, I didn’t expect that Songwen’s popularity would in turn revitalize all the residual value related to him.
I really feel that most of the blame for "chicken-style acting" lies with the director. It is probably because the actors did not ask for the guidance of professional police tactics instructors, and the actors learned it from the movies themselves. It is not easy to imitate to this extent with zero basic knowledge, let alone a girl. One of my brothers has just entered the police academy for half a year. When he came back during the Chinese New Year, he could not compare to Miss Yao when he made gestures with a banana and a gun.
2, the reckless and sincere rich second generation, looks better than the paper people packaged by capital. In the final analysis, they are the foil for their peers.
As for the current Chinese entertainment industry, don’t think of the Chinese entertainment industry as pure and beautiful girls. On the contrary, it is extremely rotten. To be a star in China, you don’t do drugs, don’t mess around, don’t assume your foreign identity, you have real lines for acting, you don’t need a stand-in in martial arts scenes, you don’t need bodyguards to aggressively say “get aside” when you go out, and you don’t have to find a bunch of people to pick you up at the airport crying. Shouting for autographs is more than 80% of celebrities.
How many people in the entertainment industry come from ordinary families? Aren’t they all kinds of second generation? Aren’t they always protected by a godfather and godmother?
The most important thing is that in recent years, domestic film and television dramas have been dominated by capital, and the film and television routines of fake paper figures have become more and more obvious. For example, in police and gangster dramas, everyone is skinny and skinny, and their acting skills are also terrible. The action scenes are just poss. I recalled that even in the domestic police and gangster dramas in the past few years, I can't find a classic female police officer. Role.
There seems to be no policewoman who is not the heroine, but there seems to be no policewoman who plays an important role. There are even fewer police dramas like "Serious Case Group 6" where the heroine and the supporting actress are both outstanding.
Anna Yao's acting skills are not good, but at least she is sincere and not pretentious. Those second-generation capitalists also use poor acting skills to play various protagonists, and they are also annoying in a natural way. In contrast, Yao Anna is so devilish, so devilishly charming that you still find her sincere and a bit cute.
Zhang Songwen can’t bring the second princess? But "Hunting Ice" proves that Anna Yao has become a disruptor in domestic entertainment.
After watching this drama, I felt that Anna Yao is quite suitable to play such a reckless and straightforward policewoman role. Her biggest problem is that her acting skills are almost non-existent, but she still has a bit of a resemblance to a passionate young man who is new to criminal investigation, and she doesn’t care much about image. As for her disobedience to discipline and her tendency to act recklessly, it can be explained that she retired because of this character. .
Generally speaking, Anna Yao still has a long way to go in acting, judging from last year's "Where the Wind Is" and this year's "Ice Hunting". She has taken a big step this time. She needs to play more supporting roles that fit her personality. She still needs to be cautious about the protagonist who takes on the leading role alone. She really can't support it at the moment.
Actually, I don’t know what she wants to do? If you want to be a star, spend money on the best agent, the best planning team, the best makeup team, and the best public relations team. If you appear in more variety shows, in the news, in hot searches, and in hype topics, you can become more popular, at least it will be better than the current situation where you have no sense of existence.
If you want to be an actor, I suggest you study acting seriously. You can either become a teacher or go to school. It will take a few years to sink in.
Wang Hailin said that you need to have acting talent. In theory, this is true, but there are various kinds of second-hand actors in the Chinese entertainment industry. Nowadays, in a situation where capital-related households and traffic stars are rampant, let’s deceive the fans of traffic stars.
Anna Yao’s looks and figure cannot make her a popular star (nor will the audience recognize her). If she really wants to pursue acting and her talent is not good, then she should find ways to train herself and see how far she can train in the end. After training, you might as well start with supporting roles in dramas, stage plays, and film and television dramas, which will test your basic skills the most.
If you don’t have enough basic skills to be an actor, you must be able to act if you really want to be an actor. I believe you can train to a certain extent. If you want to become a superstar, you really have to be rewarded by God. But to become a qualified actor, you can still achieve your dream of being an actor through hard work.
pass first and then develop. After all, the family background is there, and we don’t expect this to support the family.
If you just want to play, that's a different matter. In fact, it is not impossible for Wang Hailin to consider becoming a producer or something like that.
