The rural light comedy "Liu Laogen 4" produced by Benshan Media has been broadcast for a week, and the audience's evaluation is mixed.
Some people feel that "Liu Laogen 4" keeps up with the trend of the times, narrows the topic of public concern to Longquan Villa, and presents it in the form of comedy, which is a kind of progress.
Some people also believe that "Liu Laogen 4" and the classic version of more than ten years ago have gradually drifted away, and the focus of the plot has deviated.
It is not unreasonable to say so, if it were not for fan Wei, Yan Xuejing, Li Jing and other old actors sitting in town, the audience would really feel that they were watching "Country Love".
Last year, the audience's feedback when "Liu Laogen 3" began to be broadcast was too good, and the reason was mainly concentrated in two aspects, one was Fan Wei, who was named as the main actor, and did not appear until the finale, the scene was only four episodes, and the starring identity was not worthy of the name.
On the other hand, Guo Tiecheng, who played "Liu Erkui" in the first two films, failed to return, and the role was changed to Played by Sun Xiaofei, Zhao Benshan's apprentice.
When the filming of "Liu Laogen 4" began, the audience put forward two hopes, one is to increase Fan Wei's role, and the other is to hope that the drama can invite Guo Tiecheng back.
In "Liu Laogen 4", Fan Wei has appeared in advance, but the actor of "Erkui" is still Sun Xiaofei.
In the face of all kinds of doubts, the pressure on "Erkui" Sun Xiaofei is also very great. Recently, Sun Xiaofei accepted an exclusive interview with the media and talked about many details during filming, including the control of the characters, some evaluations of himself on the Internet and so on.
Erkui played by Guo Tiecheng has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and in the first two parts of "Liu Laogen", in addition to the "iron triangle" composed of Zhao Benshan, Fan Wei and Gao Xiumin, it is the "Erkui" played by Guo Tiecheng and the "Feng Township Chief" played by Li Zhengchun that are the most successfully portrayed.
Li Zhengchun died of illness more than a decade ago, and Guo Tiecheng's failure to return made the audience feel a little uneasy.
The pressure caused by Guo Tiecheng's success to Sun Xiaofei can be imagined.
Sun Xiaofei was the fifth batch of disciples received by Zhao Benshan, and he was in the same group as Zhang Xiaowei, Zhang Kai, Song Xiaobao, Dong Sanmao, and others.
Over the years, in many film and television drama works of Benshan Media, there are Sun Xiaofei's figures, such as "Zhang Long" in "Mr. Kanto", "Inch Plate Head" in "Cherry", "Sun Erhu" in "Veteran", "Mazi" in "Man Forty To Get Married" and so on.
Even with rich performance experience, sun Xiaofei and Guo Tiecheng, who came from the class, still have a certain gap in character shaping.
This time, in an exclusive interview with the media, Sun Xiaofei specifically responded to some topics that the audience cared about.
Sun Xiaofei admitted that it is very stressful to take over the role of "Erkui", after all, Guo Tiecheng Zhuyu is in front, and he himself does not want to surpass the former, but only wants to perform his own style.
Before filming began, Sun Xiaofei had a deep understanding of the character of Erkui, and also studied the performance of Guo Tiecheng in the first two parts of "Liu Laogen".
In "Liu Laogen 4", Erkui put down all the business in Russia, returned to Longquan Villa with funds, and continued to participate in the company's operation as general manager.
According to Sun Xiaofei, after Erkui returned to the villa, he carried out a series of reforms, took the position of manager of the financial department of his wife Ding Xiaoman, and also removed the position of manager of the sales department of his sister-in-law.
For the return of Erkui, Sun Xiaofei made a lot of preparations, in order to make the figure look more symmetrical, he deliberately lost more than 20 pounds, so that when wearing a suit, he could show the style of the general manager.
Because of the reasons of the first two films, Sun Xiaofei's role as "Erkui" will definitely cause controversy, for which he has completely opened up, thinking that the audience's evaluation of the actor is understandable, and these bad reviews are both a pressure and a driving force for him.
In the later plot, Erkui will compete with Dakui, and according to this rhythm, Zhao Benshan is estimated to be like Wang Dana in "Country Love", and the role will become less and less.
