world is a huge slap in the face tour. I still remember that at the "Screaming Night" awards ceremony at the end of last year, Yang Mi, who won the "Actress of the Year", made those bold words on the podium, " In 2024, we will meet in our works. "
Yes, she was very ambitious at that time because she had n TV series and movies starring her to be broadcast. According to the probability, as long as one of them can explode, this year will be a good year for her.
But who would have thought that if the tone was too high, one would trip over one's feet and be slapped in the face so fiercely and quickly.
2024 has just passed its halfway mark. From "Harbin 1944" to "Nothing That Can't Be Solved by a Hotpot" to the much-anticipated "Fox Fairy Little Matchmaker", new dramas and movies have been aired three times in a row, and their reputations have been greatly improved.
This result was unexpected for Yang Mi and the fans who were still looking forward to it.

Yang Mi, who has been in the industry for decades since she was a child star, has already adapted to the camera. She is good at showing her beauty in front of the camera to ensure that the screenshots are always beautiful. She did it.
But if you care too much about the beauty of your skin, it is often difficult to balance performance and emotion.
In "Harbin 1944", which was first broadcast, objectively speaking, we can see Yang Mi's determination to make a breakthrough. As director Zhang Li commented: "Yang Mi used to perform pretty, but now she is starting to get rid of being pretty."
In order to play the role of female spy Guan Xue, she can be said to have worked extremely hard and basically gave up on expression management. When engaging in violent fights, he was not afraid to reveal his ruthlessness and ferocity, leaving many ugly pictures with sunken faces, deep nasolabial folds, and tears streaming down his face.
’s desperate attempt cannot be said to be ineffective.
In a limited number of scenes and plots, she can still act out the pride and arrogance brought about by her complicated life experience. However, her changes are not enough to cover the starring role in so many scenes.
Therefore, many of the parts that were superficial and acted as collapses without getting into the depth of the characters were brought out and she was once again on the hot search list and became the target of public criticism. After all, exerting force does not mean a high degree of completion, and acting ugly does not mean performing well.
She showed irritability and was always on the verge of losing control. She appeared to be stern but inwardly depressed, and her expression of joy and anger was difficult to match her status in the military.
And the greasy and pretentious expression of exertion has even been ridiculed as the female version of the "King of Oil".
Wang Ou and Yang Mi, who are always compared together in and out of the movie, both play the role of agents of the Republic of China, and the finished product was ridiculed by netizens: "Wang Manchun is a poisonous snake that spits out letters, and his every move reveals viciousness; while Guan Xue is like a person who pounces hard on the edge." She used too much force, for fear that others would not know that she was acting. "
And the movie "Nothing That Can't Be Solved by a Hot Pot" with Yu Qian had a box office of only 52 million. It was extremely poor and faced losses. It announced an emergency withdrawal five days after its release. After a while, there was a burst of boos.
The most anticipated and blockbuster ancient fairy tale "Fox Demon Little Matchmaker" is definitely in Yang Mi's comfort zone. This top-notch Chinese comic, from the original anime to the adapted cast, is full of handsome men and beauties, and top-notch domestic entertainment per capita. In other places, he can handle the roles of a man and a woman alone.
Therefore, last year, various Reuters and publicity appeared on the street, and trivial scraps could also be trending, raising the expectations of fans and audiences to the highest level. So much so that the first episode had more than 400,000 online views, making it a well-deserved hit.
is like skydiving, taking off at a high altitude and then plummeting all the way down. One netizen commented highly, before watching the fox demon: "There are so many handsome guys and beauties, even if it turns out to be shit, it won't be difficult to see it."
After watching Fox Demon: "I really can't stand it."
Yang Mi, who once made her debut with her agility and later became popular with her sharp and domineering style, has obviously returned to the comfort zone of ancient puppets and immortals, but she performed a kind of weak and weak facial paralysis.
Tushan Honghong, as the leader of Tushan, even the arrogance and momentum in "Harbin 1944" are gone.
She had no mood swings, her face was cold and stiff, her lips opened and closed like an AI robot; her half-open eyelids seemed to have been soaked in the smell of class, leaving only an old-fashioned coping style, and she felt like giving up her job. The exhaustion of rushing to retire.
Thousands of sails have passed, and the lifeless Tushan Honghong is not worthy of being paired with the lively Gong Jun. She was ridiculed in the drama and looked like Gong Jun's aunt. She should be renamed "Fox Demon Old Matchmaker".
was heated up during the warm-up, but later "Mo Yu Yunjian", which aired quietly without any announcement, was pushed to the ground and beaten wildly. Fans were proud and shouted: "If you can't beat "Qing Yu Nian 2", how can you still beat it?" A fox demon?
But looking back, these dramas have been blamed for so many dramas. Could it be that the leading actors can only take all the blame, and there are no problems with the other scripts/filming/performers/special effects?
certainly isn't. However, Yang Mi, as a top figure who combines traffic and controversy, gathered all the firepower and allowed other issues to be "gently brushed aside."
The red drama "Harbin 1944" devotes a lot of space to describing the difficulties of the female villain, and uses intelligence to enhance the protagonist's spy drama;
"The Little Matchmaker of the Fox Demon" uses an unreasonable "year-old love" that respects the essence of the original work, and the female protagonist The male protagonist was raised from a child for 16 years, and finally fell in love happily. This kind of taboo is outrageous, even surpassing the special path between men and monsters.
Not to mention that the plot is empty and watery, and has been ridiculed like a "children's drama". The graphics are as fancy as a web game. It should be a gripping fight scene. All the actors stand and wave their arms, all thanks to post-production special effects.
Although the main actors are outsiders, the script and the script are the basis of a play, and many of the plots have problems at the root.

In the bloody domestic entertainment industry, Yang Mi is able to carve out a bloody path. Apart from the limelight and luck, she has certainly done something right.
She debuted in a drama, and is more powerful than the singing and dancing idols who transformed midway; she has a good personality who dares to make fun of herself, and is more topical than average actors.
Yang Mi is undoubtedly the kind of artist who best suits the traffic era. But now, the tide of hot money and traffic has faded, and the environment and public sentiment are sluggish. The same set can no longer be played today.
Yang Mi, who founded a company and became a female boss, has filmed 8 dramas in just a few years, 7 of which were produced by Jiaxing. They finally broke up in May last year. Everyone is watching and looking forward to it. Yang Mi, who feels that she has finally escaped the control of capital, has finally broken up. You can choose a good script as you like and realize your dream of being a "people's actor".
But after three consecutive attacks in 2024, everyone finally realized: improper selection of dramas is related, but the actors themselves are the biggest problem.
There is a high praise comment on the Internet: "It is our own fault that we still have expectations for her."
's words are not harsh, but there is a strong sense of disappointment and weariness. It's a pity actually.
Did you say Yang Mi didn’t work hard enough?
is wrong. No one can deny Yang Mi's dedication. After decades of debut, she has never been idle for a moment. Even during the critical period of pregnancy, she still ran around the scene wearing high heels with a pregnant belly, and she made a quick comeback not long after giving birth.
Being married and having children has hardly affected her on the fast track of her career. Over the years, she has been filming dramas and variety shows. She has been interviewed on the red carpet and accepted awards. Every private server and street photo shoot at the airport can trigger followers. Buy.
The anxiety of being humiliated and replaced before she became famous still seems to be lingering on top of her head. Therefore, she is like a desperate mother. After becoming popular, she goes crazy for dramas. When her status is stable, she still ensures that there are works to be broadcast every year. Her professionalism is in the front row among the 85 flowers.
Did Yang Mi have no attitude?
is also wrong. In 2021, director Li Shaohong made a sharp comment on Yang Mi's words, "Happiness is hahaha, pain is wow wow. Filming is too procedural and nothing more than brains." He will be mentioned by himself in all interviews, and he will take the initiative to show off to the public.
Criticism from experts and ridicule from everyone, the smart Yang Mi knows her own problems better than anyone else.
During the promotion period of "Harbin 1944", which is known as a transformational film, Yang Mi's determination to change was repeatedly emphasized through the characters "Yang Mi Her Choice" and various interviews, including: finding a professional acting teacher Well, I gave up socializing after work, rehearsed over and over again, memorized all the lines without the script, and was never late.
A person as competitive and shameless as Yang Mi would not say so many harsh words when he is unsure of himself. But why did she refuse to change despite repeated admonitions and still filmed the drama like this?
There is only one answer: She really wants to perform well, but she has no choice but to keep failing, and she is powerless.
Yang Mi is so smart. She is like a calm and self-sustained entrepreneur. She can become a popular star by letting go of her emotions. But she cannot become an artist by carefully designing and following each step step by step. The latter requires a bit of obsession and disregard. Crazy.
is accustomed to acting like a factory assembly line and subconsciously provides batch products with the same specifications, so it is difficult to turn it into a unique and collectible art piece.
Slogans come before performance, and marketing is greater than finished products.
may be motivated by the need to create publicity and marketing, but if you talk too much and talk too much, you will be easily slapped in the face after raising your expectations. Fighting on the street on the ground is different from climbing up a tall building and fighting again.
But every time, the thunder was loud and the raindrops were small, leaving an impression of "a giant in language and a dwarf in action". It is said that things come together in secret. If you practice quietly, you may be able to hold back a big move; if you beat gongs and drums in advance to put yourself on a high place, you will lose your breath long ago.

Try soberly and fail soberly.
The Cicada Master appreciates Yang Mi's shameless tossing and bravery that would rather be ridiculed than to do it again; but the Cicada Master feels distressed that the audience needs to digest her failed products.
Yang Mi is like a high-intensity spinning top. She has more craftsmanship but less aura.
People who exert too much force will not be able to run far. Acting routines are not formed in a day, and it is impossible to change them just by taking acting classes with famous teachers in just a few months.
Zhang Songwen once advised those traffic idols who have been training and waiting for their debut in their teens to be praised by many stars in an acting variety show, "If you want to live with this society, I suggest you take a bus and sit on the street. Go to the markets and see what the lives of the vast majority of people are like.”
Yang Mi at this stage: What you shoot is not important, what you choose not to shoot is more important.
Don’t fight for spots to make guest appearances in main dramas. Just sit on the set like a newcomer and study the acting skills of veteran actors. Instead of working hard to take on dramas like crazy, it’s better to give yourself a long vacation. Only by devoting yourself to the daily life of daily necessities can you perform the joys, sorrows and joys of ordinary people.
You can't be a good actor if you give up your emotions and don't want to be "tempted". How to break the routine? Today, after three consecutive bloodbaths, the whole network is pessimistic: the public has no more opportunities and patience left for Yang Mi to try and make mistakes.
