Just at the beginning of the year, the Mist Theater once again ushered in a surprise work -
"Gold Rush"
Mist Theater has always been known for its short and concise story, the plot is thrilling, brushed two episodes, Tomato Jun found this new drama called "Gold Rush", the same is true.
"Gold Rush" is adapted from the novel "1986 Gold Rush Horror", the story takes place in the foreign gold rush K country. In this country, Chinese gold prospectors have discovered placer gold in the Muchang River Basin, and the Simuchang Gold District, as the largest mining area in the basin, has gathered many Chinese gold diggers.
He has white skin and handsome features, which is obviously different from other gold diggers with dark skin and muscular muscles, and he is a city man at first glance.
The old man who was recruiting didn't look like he could dig for gold and wanted to send him away.
Unexpectedly, Chen Feiyu's skill in washing sand, the old man saw the situation and left him behind.
Chen Baojin and Zhao Shengli (Ding Guansen), a red vest boy in front of him, live in the same dormitory, sleeping on their bunks, and Alai (Fan Shuaiqi), who is vicious and talks with a gun at every turn.
The boss is named Peng Shan (Su Ke), who bought a gold mining boat.
With gold mining boats, you can replace a large number of manual gold panning, which not only saves labor costs, but also improves efficiency by several grades.
But because the Carpenter River is divided into several sections, each of which is controlled by a gold boss, the gold mining boat cannot be opened in a small section of his river.
So Peng Shan invited Wu Jianchao, hoping to cooperate with him and use gold mining boats to mine gold together to achieve common prosperity.
However, Wu Jianchao was angry and did not want to let the workers under his hands lose their jobs because of the gold mining boat, so he rejected Peng Shan's proposal.
The two men's beams were thus concluded.
The company stipulates that the gold mined by the workers can only be exchanged to the company for 28 yuan a gram, which is far less than the value of a gram of gold itself.
To this end, some workers secretly hid the gold they found and exchanged it to others at a high price. The mine protection team is the armed force that guarantees that such a thing will not happen.
The private gold was caught by the mine protection team, ranging from a violent beating to a heavy one sent to prison, and often people were killed for hiding gold.
This killer is the fourth force here, known as the "owl", a mysterious gold dealer who quietly exchanges gold for gold in the hands of gold miners.
No one knows who the owl is, and he has almost become the most attractive and frightening legend in the entire Gold Field.
The four forces in the golden field are mixed with each other, and each force is fighting for its own interests, so there are often strange things happening in the golden field.
Or, the workers who were hiding the gold were killed,
Chen Baojin's identity was also suspected by the boss Wu Jianchao, who checked privately and found that this "small half-cut" was not simple.
What is the secret of Chen Baojin's body? What is the result of the struggle between the various forces in The Golden Field? If you want to see it, you can slowly chase it.
After chasing a few episodes of Tomato Jun, it was found that "Gold Rush" still has the rugged and suspenseful temperament unique to the Mist Theater, especially this drama has many powerful factions to help, and it is a group portrait drama.
Liao Fan, Lü Xiaolin and Su Ke portrayed Wu Jianchao, Ah Qiu and Lao Shan formed the old musket gold panning group of the previous generation, and most of them faced conflicts of interest, and infighting was often life and death.
Chen Baoyu, Ding Guansen, Fan Shuaiqi and other new generation actors grasp Chen Baojin, Zhao Shengli, Alai three, represent the young new forces of this golden field, but also play the role of entrants and spoilers.
Whether it is an old musket or a small half- cut, they seem to have a consistent goal on the outside, but they are constantly fighting inside, and this constantly turning plot anchor and story gravity is the best place to watch "Gold Rush".
The core relationship of the whole drama is naturally the relationship between the old musket Wu Jianchao and the small half-cut Chen Baojin.
When Chen Baojin entered the golden field, Wu Jianchao noticed him.
Not only because of the familiarity of the eyes, Wu Jianchao also observed that the old man of the mine protection team looked at Chen Baojin's eyes, which was also a little different, the two seemed to know each other, but pretended not to know.
During the investigation, Wu Jianchao found that Chen Baojin was the brother of Chen Xiangdong, a gold prospector who had a conflict with him.
This moment evoked Wu Jianchao's memories, because many years ago, Chen Xiangdong took his placer gold, he drove after him, and Chen Xiangdong shot at him.
Is Chen Baojin an enemy or a friend, and did he come to the gold market to pan for gold, or to find his brother, or to get revenge? This is also one of the main lines of the drama "Gold Rush".
So on the poster of "Gold Rush", we see the opposite of Liao Fan and Chen Feiyu.
In the background very far back, Chen Feiyu pointed a gun at Liao Fan's head, which may also be the moment when the contradiction between the two broke out.
As the main backbone of the whole play, Liao Fan's acting skills naturally do not need to be said more, a cluster, a frown and even a breath are all dramas.
And Chen Feiyu, who plays Chen Baojin, also brought surprises to Tomato Jun.
When he appeared on the scene, Chen Baojin brought his own details that were incompatible with the entire gold field, whether it was Mandarin, knowledge, skin or style, he did not look like a coolie who needed to go to the mine to pan for gold.
The name "Chen Baojin" is also quite interesting, and it seems to be vaguely explaining his bottom line, which is to protect gold.
Although he does not look like a gold digger in appearance, Chen Baojin has a very young personality. Friends have difficulties, he dares to stand up for the first time.
Zhao Shengli did not bring shoes, he gave away his precious rubber shoes.
Zhao Shengli accidentally burned the foreman's stinky feet, and Chen Baojin was the first to fight for him.
Alai pointed a gun at Zhao Shengli, and it was Chen Baojin who said good things for her to break the siege.
He has a flexible mind and has his own ideas.
When Ah Qiu's child was kidnapped, the whole golden field was searching all over the mountains, and only he peeled back the cocoon to find the clues of the child in the mine, and finally found the lost child.
He is purposeful, intelligent and detail-oriented, and he is very serious about righteousness, and he will not hesitate to lose a finger for the sake of his friend's righteousness.
In "Gold Rush", the role of Chen Baojin is very plump and three-dimensional, and only two episodes have been released so far, and Chen Feiyu, who plays Chen Baojin, has contributed a lot of dramatic moments.
There are three scenes that impress Tomato Jun the most.
The first scene was when Chen Baojin wasted the power of the nine bulls and two tigers and finally entered the gold panning field. When he signed the autograph, he found that the Wu Jianchao he was looking for was the boss of the golden field, and he immediately became alert.
The expression before signing is like this, childish, green, and even a little harmless.
But after seeing Wu Jianchao, his eyes instantly became sharp.
I have seen a lot of scenes of changing faces in one second, and Chen Feiyu's one-second face change is still very distinctive.
From cuteness to seriousness, anger and even cross-examination, it can be described as a good actor in one go.
The second scene is the first confrontation between Chen Feiyu and Liao Fan.
He clashed with the foreman, causing the workers to start a group fight, Wu Jianchao to deal with it, and when the flashlight shone on Chen Feiyu's face, his raised expression could see the resentment and fierceness towards Wu Jianchao.
"What's your name"?
"Chen Baojin".
In order not to make Wu Jianchao suspicious, Chen Feiyu immediately put away his sharp edge.
When Wu Jianchao asked him again why he was panning for gold, he replied, "In order to get rich."
This is both a textbook answer and a betrayal of Wu Jianchao's hostility and disdain, and the two have a gunpowder flavor from the first time they play each other.
Although in the play, Liao Fan's acting skills are definitely more than Chen Feiyu's, but Chen Feiyu's few lines do not pull the crotch, and it can also be regarded as a play that can steadily catch the bones of the old drama.
The third scene is a rare explosion scene, and it is also a confrontation between Chen Feiyu and the two drama bones.
The three of them found the missing child, but they were tied up as kidnappers.
When he was caught, Chen Feiyu was still unwilling, and his eyes were very aggressive.
But when he was almost cut off, Chen Feiyu made Chen Baojin soften.
Because they are the weaker party at the moment, if they don't explain it well, they are likely to lose their fingers. When he saw Wu Jianchao coming, Chen Feiyu still had a hint of prayer in his eyes. Because the only person who can save him at this time is his own boss.
After the confrontation with Wu Jianchao, especially the scene of cutting off the finger after that, there is both the unwillingness and struggle of the role, as well as the emotional explosiveness of the screen, which is very good.
Chen Feiyu is a post-00, only 22 years old this year, and it is already very good to have this level of performance.
As a young actor, in this "Gold Rush", it can be seen that Chen Feiyu has made a lot of efforts.
In order to create this role, he not only studied the world view of the entire "Gold Rush" in depth before filming, but also carefully pondered the interpretation method of Chen Baojin's entire role.
In addition to viewing materials and watching video materials, he also learned a lot of gold mining techniques and methods, including sand washing, sand blowing and so on.
Although Chen Baojin is a young character, he is also quite complex, carrying the mission of finding his brother and fighting wits with various forces in The Four Wood Fields.
If you have to work hard, the character performance will come up.
During the filming of "Gold Rush", Chen Feiyu was never afraid of suffering or tiredness, and the fall was a real fall.
For the sake of the character status of some scenes, he grabbed the mud and smeared it on his face.
Because of shooting under the big sun, and because of Chen Baojin's gold panning identity, Chen Feiyu deliberately tanned his body.
Such an attitude is worth affirming.
Although his acting skills are not the best, at least in "Gold Rush", Chen Feiyu can catch the drama thrown by a film emperor-level actor like Liao Fan and a powerful actor like Su Ke, which is already a great progress for him, and it also surprises Tomato Jun.
Because of the help of so many powerful actors, "Gold Rush" has its due texture and can gain the praise of the audience.
