Looking at these children, it is difficult not to be moved : The aunt bought popsicles for the four children. Xiao Pengfei looked at his aunt with surprise, touch, and disbelief that he could not believe that he could also eat popsicles. The sensible Zhuang Tunan saw his mother giving him a big portion. When arranging noodles, I would keep staring at them and swallowing my saliva...
The audience loves Kobayashi Tung-cheol the most, and he has left many famous scenes.The first version of
is played by 8-year-old Sun Sicheng. Like his mother Song Ying, he is very good at talking. When he was watching the news broadcast at Grandpa Zhang's house, he was jokingly disliked for "one person occupying a bench." He immediately stood up and retorted, "You guys There is a TV at home, it’s so strange, I asked my mother to buy one.” Then she went home and complained to her mother, and said twice, “Uncle, I think my butt is too big,” which made Song Ying immediately make up her mind, “We will too.” Buy"; when "bullying" Zhuang Xiaoting, he threatened her, "I will tell Brother Tunan not to play with you" and "I won't take you to the toilet", but was destroyed by her own brother.

After returning home, she even cried and yelled that Song Ying had "abandoned her husband and her son" and "treacherous." Crying and laughing under the red flag...
Under the background of the children, Fan Chengcheng's 3.0 Zhuang Tunan was criticized by netizens.

As Tunan's role becomes more and more important, some viewers joked that they want to crowdfund to send Tunan to study abroad, and then come back to take reunion photos after the finale.
Why are they always the most outstanding?
In fact, in many previous period dramas, young actors with superb acting skills often became the focus of the drama, making the audience say "they are reluctant to let the children grow up."
Another period drama "Children of the Qiao Family" directed by Zhang Zhangzhou, the director of "Alley People", has had several actors since childhood, and the young actors have all done it with great vigor.
For example, many viewers like Qiao Simei: version 1.0, played by Su Yike, is a cute and cute little sister with braids; version 2.0, played by Zhang Xiwei, is smart and agile with a hint of stubbornness, and has the ability to ride the train alone.

Liu Lin and Guo Tao starred in "The Glory of Our Fathers". The children made many viewers sigh that "they are so good at acting." : Xiao Fengju, who is both fierce and defensive, has a fierce personality and is a firecracker who explodes at the slightest moment. When adults gossip about her sister, she will go home and stab someone with a kitchen knife. However, after being scolded by her mother, she will always act firmly and quickly. Replied "Okay", he is arrogant but cowardly; Xiao Zhaoxi, who is naughty and mischievous, is determined to be the king of children, "makes trouble" every day, and fights with Xiao Fengju. It is Xiao Zhaoxi who plays "Catch the Baby " "Ma Jiye" ...
Why are they the most outstanding in period dramas?
There is a saying that children actually have advantages in acting. They have not been polished by life, and they play more roles that fit their own image, and their performances are more revealing of true feelings. After the director gives instructions, they don't think too much about "what reaction to give". They often give the most direct and real feedback in the atmosphere and in the opponent's scene, relying more on instinct.
In the context of period dramas, the innocent and romantic little actors not only have a sense of the simplicity of that era, but also have rich imaginations. Under the guidance of adults, they can better represent the era at that time, and with appropriate costumes, It’s more like something out of a period drama. Compared with children, some young actors whose professional abilities are not up to par have heavy acting marks, and their understanding and interpretation of roles are not adequate, so they will inevitably be compared.
The young actor has no data in his mind, no hot searches, no fan reviews, and no cake or cake. The potential of being undistracted meets the experienced acting in period dramas, and he can mobilize emotions even more.
There is such a scene in "Alley People". Lin Dongzhe can't write, so he directly copied Zhuang Tunan's and replaced himself with a father. After being invited by the teacher as a parent, he mentioned "mixed doubles" and watched him get beaten up. Crying, the audience in front of the screen was amused. In the behind-the-scenes video, Li Qingyu, who plays Lin Dongzhe, said that he wanted to fake crying when he was acting in this scene, but "Dad" Li Guangjie acted so well that he "scared" himself into tears and "brought out my fear."
To a certain extent, this is also the mutual achievement of a good crew and young actors.
How to choose young actors
How do you find these young actors who have aura and acting skills, and even some whose appearance is highly suitable for adult actors?
likes to use the noon of acquaintances, and is used to using "old friend ": Su Yike, who plays Qiao Simei 1.0, has previously played Xiao Huirou in " Qingpingle ", a father who sounds milky. , the cuteness of countless netizens; Xiao Rentian, who played the 2.0 version of Zhuang Tunan, starred in Xiao Zhao Zongshi in "Qing Ping Le"; played Qiao Erqiang 2.0's Liang Jiatong, who previously collaborated with Noon in "Mountains and Seas" ... …
Previously, Feng Lei, the casting director of "Children of the Qiao Family" and from CD Home Casting Studio, revealed in an interview that the casting process for young actors is actually more complicated and labor-intensive than that for adult actors. The first requirement is to play well : "Some experienced children are easy to be 'greasy', and some have good appearance but lack the understanding of acting. Each character has been seen by at least 300 people, and based on this, the range has been gradually narrowed down, from 300 to 50 , and then to 10, the director will lock in a few interviews and auditions. "
Did you see that even children are worried about being "greasy"? It is even harder for young actors who have been in the entertainment industry for many years to escape such criticism.
These young actors were collected from various institutions and schools across the country. Later, the crew also collected a lot of information about children who had no acting experience and compared them one by one. However, most of the young actors finally identified had acting experience. .
Details Control Noon also has strict requirements on appearance, requiring the young actors to look as similar as possible to the corresponding adult actors, and each group of children must be matched harmoniously together: they must have the feeling of brothers and sisters, and they must not match the others. It can only be eliminated; the height and body shape of young actors must be coordinated, and they must be consistent with actors of other age groups. This standard is very precise. For example, among the four beauties of young people, there is a girl from Nanjing who is 90% similar to Song Zuer. It is a pity that the two The height difference between individuals is only 7 centimeters, but the main creator's request was 12 centimeters, so they had no choice but to give up.
After "The Children of the Qiao Family"
is turned on, the crew will ask the young actors to join the set immediately, so that they can more immersively experience the atmosphere of the story, so that the performance will be more natural: let the young actors eat and drink together , live together, get to know each other as soon as possible, just like the friends in the play; get used to the sets and props of the 1970s and 1980s in advance, and wear costumes whether on the set or out; tell them stories from that era... all kinds of Only under high demands did it gain unanimous praise from the audience.
All of this is obviously a cost of time and energy that young actors, especially idols, who are competing for traffic and exposure in variety shows cannot pay.
Looking at it this way, compared to the parents who played the leading roles in period dramas, the "eldest sons" lack acting skills; compared to their "childhood", they lack talent and investment, so it is no wonder that they are looked down upon and scolded by the audience. It's a related household.
