Last year's noonday sun at the beginning of the Year detonated the ratings with a poverty alleviation drama "Mountains and Seas";
A year later, it once again triggered a wave of dramas on the internet with the new theme time loop short drama "Beginning".
In "The Beginning", the acting skills of a number of actors are remarkable, Zhao Jinmai and Bai Jingting, the two new generations, are completely supported, Liu Yijun and Liu Dan are even more difficult to distinguish, only Director Du, played by Liu Tao, who has little role, has been complained about by netizens.
So what is the problem of Liu Tao's dissatisfaction? We put Together Yu Nan, Wu Yue, Wang Qian, and Yan Bingyan, who also played senior policemen, and the gap came out.
First, Liu Tao | "Beginning" Du Jinsong
Among the actors of "The Beginning", Liu Tao, who does not have much drama, ranks fourth. It is enough to prove that the producer recognizes her "coffee position", but what is unexpected is that her performance is the most dragging leg of the whole play.
First of all, her wig is enough for the audience to play, and this short wig is deliberately selected to show the character's neat and neat style of handling and increase the sense of character experience.
But her facial features can not keep up with this shape, her expression is always upright, the facial features are as stable as Taishan, the eyebrows are always locked for thinking, the eyes are confused and pretentious, and the face is full of writing: "The old lady is a senior leader, very cattle, can you see it?" ”
I thought she could see some clues from the inherent clues, but after a few cycles back and forth, she would always only look at the monitoring and say four words: send a drug test!
What's more frightening? It is this role that is dispensable.
If you think about it carefully, you will find that this role does not exist and does not affect the plot at all, and the police officer Zhang Cheng, played by Liu Yijun, has no problem at all, and reporting to Du Jinsong does not play any role in the advancement of the plot.
In fact, according to Liu Tao's resume, she should not have played this police flower role like this. At the age of 15, she entered the military literary and artistic corps and served as a literary and artistic soldier for 3 years.
Although in those three years, she was mostly dry carrying water, growing vegetables, and feeding pigs, but the plain and regular life, at least let her infected with the temperament of the soldiers.
Personally, I think the reason why she played "Director Du" is because her play path is relatively narrow, or her acting skills are more vain, she may not be suitable for this kind of line less, and she needs to rely on eyes and micro-expressions to convey the character characteristics.
In comparison, "Pressure Cooker Auntie" Liu Dan is much more handy in this regard, her lines are even less, basically "no" and "meat" two sentences, but also through the eyes portrayed an extremely numb world-weary woman image.
Also post-70s actresses, Wu Yue, Yu Nan, Yan Bingyan to create this kind of chief role is much more comfortable, they have both the majesty of the leader, but also the flesh and blood of the individual, will not be in a state of tension for the sake of human design.
Second, Wu Yue | "Sweeping the Black Storm" He Yun
Wu Yue was born in Shuxiang Mendi, his father was the calligrapher and painter Wu Yiren, from a young age Wu Yue has a deep achievement in seal engraving, and has won many awards. But at the age of 19, he was admitted to the theater and stepped into the entertainment circle with one foot.
Two years after graduation, she played the military reporter Wen Lu in "Peace Years" and won the Golden Eagle Outstanding Supporting Actress Award, and since then she has formed an indissoluble relationship with the roles of soldiers and policemen, and in dramas such as "Rose Blossom" and "Children of the Compound", she played either a military doctor or a police flower.
Although her acting career is mostly supporting roles, her acting skills are obvious to all, in "The First Half of My Life" because of the sense of substitution for playing a small third who destroyed other people's families, Weibo was scolded to close the comments.
And then the dubbing skills she showed in "Sound Immersion" made people have to look at her with surprise: it turned out that Ling Ling was so powerful outside the play!
In the blockbuster drama "Sweeping Black Storm", which began airing in August 2021, Wu Yue played He Yun, who is ostensibly the deputy director of the public security bureau of Luteng City, but in fact is the umbrella of the black forces, and at the same time she is a poor and hateful woman who is tricked by fate.
When she first appeared, she was dressed in a proper police uniform, spoke lightly and lightly, and did things crisply and neatly, with both the calm and calm of the workplace and the majesty of the great leader.
At this time, it is difficult to imagine that she is a "black policeman" who plays for the tiger.
Later, as the plot developed, her dark side was also revealed. For many years, she has been a mother who knows the law and breaks the law, but in the face of the police uniform that represents justice and light, her heart has struggles, helplessness, unwillingness to be destroyed by fate, and grievances to be manipulated.
Wu Yue's entire performance is not mysterious for any reason, and under the appearance of calmness, the inner waves are turbulent, and the sense of proportion is very good, which vividly reflects the hateful and pitiful share of being both a ghost and a lamb.
Third, Wang Qian | Ji Jie of "Six Groups of Serious Cases"
In 2001, the criminal investigation police drama "Six Groups of Serious Cases" was launched, and by 2010 it had aired four in a row. The six groups of flowing water, the iron Ji Jie, as the first female protagonist throughout the four parts, the female police officer Ji Jie played by Wang Qian is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
In the play, Ji Jie has short hair in her ears, walks with the wind, and speaks directly. She can drive a big car, catch criminals, have first-class observation and adaptability, and is a strong woman who is stronger than her male colleagues.
In short, she has one word all over her body: sa.
In fact, this is not her first time to play a policeman, as early as 1996, she played a police flower Xiaojuan in the movie "Anti-Drug Hero".
After "Six Groups of Serious Cases" entered the preparatory period, in order to play a good policeman, she deliberately went to ask the real police for advice, and an old policeman with many years of experience in the police told her that if you want to distinguish who is a policeman in the crowd, you have to look at his eyes.
So she carefully observed, and later found that the real policeman was always sharp-eyed and not empty.
During filming, she applied this experience to the role and got good feedback.
Xu Qingdong, the director of "Six Groups of Serious Cases", is Ji Jie's husband, which is why other personnel have changed more or less under the four films, and Ji Jie has always existed.
In addition to being an actress, Wang Qian is also a screenwriter, and she is also one of the screenwriters of "Six Sisters in Serious Cases".
Many people say that she is high and low, and perhaps as an actress she leaves the impression on the audience that the work is getting less and less. But in fact, she has not been idle in private, she turned to the background as a producer, as a screenwriter. In 2013, she wrote and starred in the TV series "No Fraud in the World", and she played Zhu Xining, the director of the police station, who still had the capable style of Ji Jie that year.
Wang Qian is not only widely recognized as an actress, but she is also very successful in being a producer and screenwriter. The 2021 broadcast of "Ah Cradle" is her first independent screenwriting work, and it is worth mentioning the film "Ah! The screenwriter of "Cradle" is her husband Xu Qingdong, which is probably a way for her to commemorate her deceased husband.
Fourth, Yan Bingyan | "Opponent" Duan Yingjiu
In 2012, a "Ten Thousand Arrows Through the Heart" allowed Yan Bingyan to win eight post-film trophies in one go. But after this, she did not become the "top stream" of everyone's big purple and red.
Speaking of which, it is only because she does not take advertisements, does not participate in commercial activities, does not go on variety shows, and does not participate in everything that has nothing to do with movies and TV series.
But as long as there is a work, she can't keep a low profile, because her solid performance skills are too impressive, the media strives for coverage, and the audience spreads word of mouth, and her brilliance cannot be hidden.
In the popular "Opponent" some time ago, she played the national security captain Duan Yingjiu. The requirements of her profession made her present three faces, when she went undercover, she was a female wandering the streets; in uniform, she was a majestic and courageous national security captain, mobilizing, directing, and carrying out tasks to kill and decide; and back home, she was just an ordinary middle-aged woman who had to deal with chai rice oil and salt, and had to face a life of chicken feathers one by one.
After receiving this role, Yan Bingyan slashed her waist-length hair, and in order to fit duan Yingjiu's extraordinary personality, she began to exercise iron and hired a fighting coach to practice professional fighting.
Not only that, during the shooting, she was a fully vegetarian face, she said: Duan Yingjiu has time to draw eyebrows and draw eyes, and it is good to wash her face and brush her teeth. The clarity of modern machines is so high that even the audience can see it with light makeup, so it is directly plain.
When the drama first started, some people complained that Yan Bingyan was old and fat, but with the deepening of the plot, who still superficially talked about her tall, fat and thin?
Duan Yingjiu is not Yan Bingyan's first policeman, in her debut film "Hunting down the Wild Wolf Gang", she played a female SWAT captain, and in the "Red Cross Square Team" that made her popular, Xiao Hong, who she played, was also a police flower.
Over the years, she has grown older and played higher and higher roles, and what has not changed is that her charm has always been there.
Fifth, Yu Nan | "Wolf Warrior" Long Xiaoyun
Yu Nan is a very low-key film queen, she has won countless film trophies at home and abroad, but when she says her name, some people will not know who she is, also because outside the movie, she seems to not exist in the entertainment industry.
In the movie "Wolf Warrior", Long Xiaoyun, played by Yu Nan, is both the captain of the special forces "Wolf Warrior" and the lover of Leng Feng. On the one hand, she needs to not smile and have the prestige of a female chief, on the other hand, she has to follow up with a little daughter's attitude. This point is actually not easy to grasp, if too much emphasis on the side of the little woman, the authority of the chief is three points less, and if too much emphasis on coldness, the emotional drama is not so warm.
But Yu Nan's treatment is very delicate, and when she appears on the scene, she is a heroic and fully open imperial sister image, it seems that the air everywhere she goes is instantly frozen.
Then in the confinement room, when Leng Feng was "interrogated" to let him drink, he said, "I want to see what you look like when you are drunk", and she had a fleeting smile on her face.
When Leng Feng began to tell her story, she quickly put away her smile and returned to the state of a fierce chief.
In just two seconds, the little woman's side was reflected.
To put it bluntly, this kind of role should be played into three points, and the appearance depends on the capable aspect on the one hand, and the eye drama is the most important. It's not that just by "holding it", showing a pretentious look will be praised by the audience: Wow, she is so powerful, she is a leading figure at first glance.
A comparison will find that Liu Tao's performance now seems to be caught in a strange circle, acting pattern, from "Ode to Joy" Andy has always been a confused overbearing president state, some deliberate and contrived components. It's no wonder that she took on all the negative reviews of the show in less than 10 minutes in the first eight episodes of "The Beginning" this time.
If Director Du is replaced by any of the other four actresses above, I think the reputation of the play will be even higher.
