Entering 2022, the Chinese opera market has successively launched a lot of costume dramas, and the current hits are "Zhu Qinghao", "Shan He Yueming", "Acquaintance with Junchu" and other works, but the most popular is "And Try the World" starring Yang Yang and Zhao Lusi.
At present, the drama has just been online for 5 days, and the cumulative playback volume has exceeded 400 million, winning the cat's eye heat day crown for 4 consecutive days, and even "Special Battle Glory", which has been at the top of the popularity list, has also lost.
There is a box office myth of Wu Jing beating Wu Jing on the big screen, and there is a hot battle for Yang Yang to defeat Yang Yang in the film and television drama market, which shows how strong his ability to carry dramas is. Costume scripts have a more powerful audience, naturally surpassing the military drama works starring Yang Yang, not only that, the quality of "And Try the World" can also be called the leader of domestic costume dramas.
The opening of the play contributed a number of fight scenes, which undoubtedly met the expectations of the audience, the pace of the story progressed relatively fast, and the multi-element integration in the play, that is, there were martial arts rivers and lakes, there were also temple disputes, and there were many points to watch. But even so, the acting skills of Yang Yang and Zhao Lusi have received a lot of controversy.
Nowadays, ugly men in costume are rampant, more and more male protagonists of costume dramas are not seen, Yang Yang's posture and appearance are ceiling-level, so in the play, the etiquette problem is not big, and there is a sense of vision of the ancient nobleman, but the problem is that every action of Yang Yang is like a carefully designed general, slightly deliberate, not natural enough.
Because of this, after the launch of "And Try the World", Yang Yang was pushed on the hot search because of "holding", but this is not the first time Yang Yang has been subjected to such controversy, there are similar problems in the modern drama "A Slight Smile is Falling City" and "You Are My Glory", although the costume script pays attention to manners, and it is much more comfortable than modern dramas in appearance, but this acting shortcoming still exposes Yang Yang's own problems.
Zhao Lusi starred in the role of Bai Fengxi, as early as before the start of the play, it was considered by the original fans to be inconsistent with the role setting in the original work, the character is not only a heroine, but also has a sense of stunning style, but Zhao Lusi's appearance and temperament are more suitable for interpreting sweet roles, which makes Zhao Lusi even if she strives to break the inherent impression she left for the audience, she still carries a cute and pure shadow, not so in line with the character's cold and dashing image.
Most of the controversy in "And Try the World" comes from the acting skills of Yang Yang and Zhao Lusi, especially Zhao Lusi, who has been accused of letting the audience play, but in fact, her acting skills are not "only visible to fans", from the first episode onwards, it has been enough to amaze the audience.
Bai Fengxi is an informal and unbridled chivalrous image, who stood on top of the bamboo forest when she debuted, and directly reported her name in front of everyone and took away Yan Yingzhou, but because Yan Yingzhou was concerned about the people and was a good person, she ran to the Han family to get medicine for him.
However, the Medicine of the Han Family was difficult to find, and Bai Fengxi wanted to grab it hard, but he happened to catch up with the Sixtieth Birthday of the Han Family Lord, so he could only change his plan, first generously wishing Old Master Han a happy birthday, and then unceremoniously sitting next to the case to drink wine and eat meat.
Eating drama often tests the acting skills of actresses, in the past many actors have become famous by eating drama, and Zhao Lusi's eating scene is enough to prove her dedication. First I picked up the wine on the table and drank it directly at the mouth of the pot, and then I saw the elbow on the table, holding the big one in one hand, holding the small one in the other, and stuffing it into my mouth without saying a word, just from her expression you can see how delicious it is.
Bai Fengxi, who is highly skilled in martial arts, naturally does not take the Han family master and the so-called martial arts masters in his eyes, still eating with himself, while eating, he does not forget to greet the Han family master, not only ridiculing the other party that he has money, but also squeezing the Han family master outside the words may not be able to live the next big birthday, but he has never stopped eating from beginning to end.
It can be seen that Zhao Lusi is really eating, not only stuffing his mouth full, even the expression is very vicious, as if he does not hurry to eat the elbow, the next second someone will grab with her, wolfing but the expression is very enjoyable, so that the audience can experience how fragrant the elbow is across the screen. This kind of eating is undoubtedly a complete loss of his idol baggage, but the more real he eats, the more stable his acting skills are, which not only reflects the informal, big grinning side of Bai Fengxi, but also the chivalrous wanton freedom and arrogance.
Zhao Lusi's "gnawing on the pig's trotter" scene justifies his name at the same time, I don't know how many actors' fig leaf is torn off, and there are shots of eating drama in many film and television dramas, but some actors often eat very contrived for their own image.
In "The Sea of Stars", the heroine Jane Ai, played by Liu Tao, did not eat for several days after escaping from home alone. Seeing the noodle restaurant, she wanted the boss to give her a bowl of noodles to eat, but there was no money in her hand, and the boss pitied her and brought her a bowl of instant noodles.
Once people are too hungry, they must eat it all, but Liu Tao is a slow and rational noodle, maintaining a perfect state in front of the camera, not only does not look so hungry, but it seems that it is difficult to swallow.
However, Liu Tao's scene at least really sends noodles to his mouth, and some actors eat scenes that do not even touch the food in their mouths, but they also have to show the appearance of eating with relish. Yang Ying's eating scene in "Song in the Clouds" was questioned, and the food under the side camera did not even touch Yang Ying's mouth, but she pretended to take a bite and used the borrowed position to play a eating scene, but accidentally "wore a gang".
When the camera switches to the front, she acts as if she has actually eaten a delicacy, and then tells the recipe and preparation process of the food. But this kind of fake eating shot makes the character's subsequent lines become unconvincing, and it is too mysterious to eat the recipe without eating, and both the characters and the plot are completely distorted.
Also fake food is Yang Zi, earlier in the "Ode to Joy" she used her own eating drama out of the circle, played by qiu Yingying when the mood is not good, like to eat, without paying any attention to the image. But in the costume drama, Yang Zi holds the chicken leg in her hand and pretends to bite it, but the chicken leg has not changed at all, the chewing action is also very fake, and Yang Zi's acting skills have become very contrived.
These actresses eat scenes just to go through a formality, not really put themselves into the role, compared to Zhao Lusi' high opinion. Although many viewers complained that Zhao Lusi's acting skills are flawed, but this eating scene must be able to pass, some actors are not willing to really eat is afraid of body shape, but for the really dedicated good actors, only real eating can have real feelings.
