At the beginning of the new year, the news of the noonday sun came out, and the filming of the much-anticipated "Ode to Joy 3" was nearing the end.
On January 11, one of the leading actors, Jiang Shuying, posted a photo of himself, saying that "22 years and the 22nd floor of you first said goodbye, the 214th day, Shanghai, Ye Zhenzhen killed the green."
This sentence reveals three important messages:
First, since Jiang Shuying's role as the heroine has already been completed, the whole drama is not far from the qingqing;
The second is to reveal the floor where Wumei lives in the play, and like the previous two films, this time it is still the 22nd floor of the Ode to Joy community;
The third is to reveal the shooting time, 214 days, which is as long as 7 months, which is not achieved by ordinary episodes.
At the same time, Jiang Shuying also made a special four other beauty, namely Yang Caiyu, Zhang Jianning, Zhang Huiwen, and Li Haofei, which completely exposed the new five beauty lineup.
This lineup is still different from the official lineup announced by the "Ode to Joy 3" crew in June when it was just ready to start filming.
From right to left, the above picture is Jiang Shuying, Yang Caiyu, Zhang Jianning, Zhang Huiwen, and Sun Qian.
But now there is no longer her name, replaced by Li Haofei, I don't know what happened in this.
So, what is the connection or difference between "Ode to Joy 3" and the first two films?
Five newly moved girls from the Ode to Joy community live on the same floor, among which the hotel manager Zhu Zhe and Yu Chuhui and He Huihong, who have just worked for a few years, share a suite.
The mysterious and cold company personnel Fang Zhiheng and Ye Zhenzhen, who is engaged in life science research, live in two other suites, these five women have very different personalities, different living conditions, and each faces problems and dissatisfaction from the workplace, family, and love.
Fang Zhiheng's suspicious behavior aroused the suspicion of everyone;
Ye Zhenzhen, who is like the proud daughter of heaven, will also encounter inexplicable hostility from the workplace;
Yu Chuhui is born smart, and it is inevitable that the reading work will be opportunistic, and only after suffering losses will he know that he is down-to-earth;
Zhu Zhe's career seems to be smooth, but the upward path is limited by low academic qualifications;
He Mercyhong, who does not understand the world, is always caught in the dilemma of doing bad things with good intentions...
In the face of all kinds of difficulties in life, they went from mutual suspicion to opening their hearts to accepting each other, and in the city of Shanghai, they worked hard to live, warmed each other, and harvested growth.
"Ode to Joy" and "Ode to Joy 2" have old five beauty, namely Andy played by Liu Tao, Qu Xiaoxiu played by Wang Ziwen, Fan Shengmei played by Jiang Xin, Guan Juer played by Qiao Xin, and Qiu Yingying played by Yang Zi, five girls who live together in the Ode to Joy community.
"Ode to Joy 3" was replaced by the new five beauty, namely Ye Zhenzhen played by Jiang Shuying, Fang Zhiheng played by Yang Caiyu, Zhu Zhe played by Zhang Jianning, He Mercyhong played by Zhang Huiwen, and Yu Chuhui played by Li Haofei.
Not only are the roles completely different, but none of the original Wumei actors are reused, the only thing that is the same is that this time Wumei still lives on the 22nd floor of the Ode to Joy community.
The character of the new five beauty is like this:
Ye Zhenzhen, the proud daughter of heaven, engaged in life science research, the name is taken from the "Poetry ZhouNan Tao Yao" "Peach of the Dream, its Ye Zhen Zhen", according to Jiang Shuying's words, this girl loves science, rationality and rigor; also loves sports, cheerful sunshine; noble but not proud, pushing herself and others, kind and enthusiastic.
Fang Zhiheng is a mysterious and cold company personnel, Zhu Zhe is a hotel manager, Yu Chuhui is clever and opportunistic, and He Mercy Hong is not sophisticated, always falling into the embarrassing situation of doing bad things with good intentions.
In addition to the new Wumei, the crew also officially announced four major male actors, namely Dou Xiao, Wang Anyu, Jing Chao, and Zhang Haowei.
In addition, Qu Zheming, Luo Haiqiong, Yu Shasha and others also participated in the play.
Some people may wonder why "Ode to Joy 3" has changed blood, and the five beauties in the first two parts have been interpreted so deeply in the hearts of the people, why not ask them to continue to write brilliant?
There should be no more than three reasons.
First, the five beautiful actors have basically become the popular line now, all of them are able to pick the main characters alone, with the sharp increase in the curry position, the film remuneration is naturally also greatly improved, and the film remuneration added together in the past may not be enough to pay a beautiful one now.
The noonday sun has always pursued quality first, spending such a large price to invite the five beauties of the year, obviously the cost invested in the production of the series will be greatly reduced, which is not what they are pursuing.
Second, with the improvement of the curry position and the change of the environment, it is difficult for the former Wumei to achieve the previous accommodation and tacit understanding, and it can even be said that no one obeys anyone, and how to rank is a problem.
The most obvious is Yang Zi, when filming the first two films, she was still a little transparent, and it was no problem to be a supporting role, but now in addition to the cameo, every other drama is a big heroine.
Jiang Xin's situation is similar, now acting is either a female one or a female second, and then listed her as third as before, and its work team is difficult to pass.
Third, there have always been rumors that Liu Tao and Jiang Xin are not compatible, and the two used to have a deep sisterly relationship, but now not only do they usually have no interaction, but they do not greet each other when they participate in an activity on the same stage, and the reasons for this are divergent.
The relationship is frozen like this, how to shoot together?
Of course, the noonday sun may have its own considerations.
As we all know, many sequels have become dog-tailed sequels, and the noonday sun is no exception, for example, compared to the first part, the reputation of "Ode to Joy 2" has dropped sharply, and the Douban score has not even reached the pass.
Perhaps also afraid of repeating the same mistakes, Noonday Sun continues to use the IP of "Ode to Joy" to attract the attention of the audience, and then thinks of using new characters and new stories to bring new feelings to the audience.
This idea should still be quite clever.
In order to shoot the drama well, noonday sun specially assigned Jian Chuan to direct the play, you know that he is the director of "Ode to Joy", "Ode to Joy 2", as well as "All Is Good" and "Good Guys", for this kind of modern urban family emotional theme, it can be said that he is experienced and has his hands on it.
All of the above makes the audience full of expectations for "Ode to Joy 3", hoping that this drama can once again allow the audience to witness the correctness of the sentence "produced at noon, it must be a fine product".
