"Ode to Joy 3" is getting closer and closer to broadcasting, and the controversy on the Internet is getting bigger and bigger.
At the beginning, the first part of "Ode to Joy" was launched, which triggered a hot discussion on the whole network, not only was nominated for awards at major TV festivals, but also led a wave of urban women's TV drama shooting trend.
The first two films revolve around five girls with different personalities and identities who live on the 22nd floor of the Ode to Joy community, telling the bittersweet and bittersweet life they work and live in Shanghai.
Nowadays, although "Ode to Joy 3" is still a play of five women, although it still takes place on the 22nd floor of the Ode to Joy community, it only borrows the signs of the first two films, which is already a brand new story, and the starring lineup is also a full change of blood.
Compared with expectations, more viewers are not very optimistic about this sequel, feeling that they have lost their original taste and are just selling feelings.
At the beginning, "Ode to Joy" could be so successful, inseparable from the shaping of the five women in the play, each with a distinct personality.
They represent a certain type of woman in reality, and many viewers can find their own shadow to a greater or lesser extent.
Several actors have also interpreted the most real and vivid side of the role, created another masterpiece of their respective acting careers, and won the support and love of countless audiences.
Now 6 years later, in the rapidly changing showbiz circle, the "Ode to Joy Five Beauty" has undergone earth-shaking changes in both acting resources and life circumstances, and the difference is huge.
Today we may wish to talk about --
1, Yang Zi: "Qiu Yingying", who is caught in a single cycle, lacks an opportunity
Qiu Yingying, played by Yang Zi, came to Shanghai from a small place to work hard, and she represents most girls with ordinary qualifications but dream of having a place in a big city.
Qiu Yingying is a complete "love brain", as long as she plunges into love, it is easy to lose herself, and even for her boyfriend to turn her face with a good girlfriend, which is also the most speechless place for her.
But on the other hand, she is a kind and simple girl, whether in front of friends or family, she is like a child who has not grown up, will not hide her emotions, and lives frankly and innocently.
Qiu Yingying, who is brash and straightforward but also cute, has formed a high degree of fit with Yang Zi's own momentum and lively temperament.
If before this drama, Yang Zi was still the little snow of "Family with Children" in everyone's impression, then "Ode to Joy" began to let many viewers find that this little girl had grown up.
Later, Yang Zi said in an interview that she had been filming for a long time before taking over "Ode to Joy" ("I couldn't receive any scenes in half a year"), which gave her a chance to be recognized again.
In fact, at the beginning, Yang Zi wanted to play Qu Xiaoxiu, but at that time, this role had already been set for Wang Ziwen, and Yang Zi had no choice but to take on this role that was not very pleasing.
In order to play this role well, Yang Zi has made great efforts, and has also specially designed some actions, expressions and funny lines to highlight Qiu Yingying's cuteness and ignorance of the world, so that the audience can better accept this role.
Although Qiu Yingying was complained about by many netizens after the broadcast, it did make Yang Zi popular again and successfully achieved transformation.
Immediately after, Yang Zi starred in the Xian Xia drama "Qing Yun Zhi", and the cute and playful costume appearance began to let Yang Zi find a path that was very suitable for her, that is, Xian Xia drama and idol drama.
After that, she starred in blockbuster dramas such as "Fragrant Honey Sinks Like Frost" and "Dear, Loved", which made Yang Zi's popularity soar all the way and laid the foundation for her status as a small flower.
Although it has become a big traffic celebrity in the circle, at the same time, it has also limited Yang Zi's play path.
You can see that after Yang Zi, there are also dramas such as "Sauvignon Blanc" and "Agarwood Like Crumbs" to be broadcast, almost all of which are all fairy tales, the genre is very single, and it seems that it is only the male actors around her.
From the former child star to the ancient puppet drama and love drama professional household, it seems that the acting career is rising in a straight line, but Yang Zi has fallen into the cycle of repetitive types.
In Pigo's view, if you want to have greater achievements in performance, Yang Zi must break through the single cycle that she is currently trapped in.
In fact, Yang Zi's performance skills are very solid, as early as "Battle Changsha", Yang Zi's portrayal of the heroine Xiangxiang is particularly infectious.
For example, there is a scene after the victory of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, Xiang Xiang returns home to see that things have long been human, his family is no longer alive, and the loneliness and sadness and trance on his face are heartbreaking.
For Yang Zi, she has now received flowers and applause, and all she lacks is a chance for her to jump out of her comfort zone.
I sincerely hope that Yang Zi will not waste her talent for acting and can try more diversified roles.
2, Jiang Xin: "Fan Shengmei", who has been silent for 2 years, is difficult to say
Compared with Qiu Yingying, Fan Shengmei, who has worked hard in Shanghai for many years, understands the reality of human feelings and sophistication, and is more sleek in handling things.
But she also loves vanity, can't afford to buy a brand, you must buy a high imitation, take Andy's luxury car to attend a class reunion, and fill the bitterness of reality with vanity.
Fan Shengmei, who looks sassy, has unspeakable pain: her parents are bent on favoring her brother, and they let her work alone in Shanghai to send money to her brother, and the burden of the family also makes her extremely eager for materials.
Fan Shengmei, who sent money to her brother, paid the rent, and her salary had bottomed out, flashed tears in her eyes, letting people see her vulnerability and helplessness.
I have to say that Jiang Xin fully grasped the characteristics of the role, and the sense of proportion was very in place, which also became another classic role for her after "The Biography of Zhen Huan".
At first, Jiang Xin was somewhat resistant to this role, until director Kong Sheng said that she would definitely be able to play this role well, which made Jiang Xin instantly have confidence.
When filming in the middle stage, Jiang Xin also understood the difficulty and pity of the role, which made her fully immersed in the emotions of the role.
"Ode to Joy" has made Jiang Xin's fame to a higher level, coupled with her acting skills, it is reasonable to say that the prospects should be bright.
However, in the following years, Jiang Xin's development was somewhat unsatisfactory, and in Pigo's view, it was mainly affected by two factors.
First of all, Jiang Xin's criteria for selecting dramas are really somewhat incomprehensible.
In particular, "Deep Love" adapted from Zhang Ailing's "Half Life", in which Jiang Xin and Liu Jialing played a pair of sisters in their 20s, which was madly complained by netizens.
Secondly, Jiang Xin's own upright personality has also made her openly and secretly offend many people and affected her development.
For example, zhao liying was pointed out for "false singing", and Chen Yanxi was said in person that Chen Yanxi was "married to a son", and the scene was once very embarrassing.
The most famous is undoubtedly the Oolong incident with Liu Tao's girlfriend, which was originally a two-rib knife for the sisters, and did not want to lead the unnamed rumors to Liu Tao, not only on the hot search, but also caused the two to be estranged.
In the entertainment industry, the land of right and wrong, the straight nature may not be able to eat open, and a little caution will be said to be "low emotional intelligence".
Fortunately, after two years of precipitation, Jiang Xin ushered in a wave of outbreaks.
In the past two years, dramas such as "Xiao Shede" and "Meritorious Service" have been recognized by the audience, and Jiang Xin's acting output is as stable as ever.
This year, she also has a spy drama "Lurker" to be broadcast, and huang Xiaoming plays a "fake couple", which can be said to be one of the most anticipated dramas in the second half of the year.
3, Qiao Xin: "Guan Juer", who has always been on the edge, is a pity
Kwan is an obscure character in Ode to Joy.
Although she comes from a small place, Guan Ju'er, who has a well-to-do family, does not have to worry about life, and her biggest trouble is her emotional destination.
Quiet, gentle and understanding, this is the audience's first impression of Guan Ju'er.
Many times she is a listener, rarely taking the initiative to express her opinions, and she is often a "small transparent" existence when she stays quietly on the side.
Until the later stage, Guan Ju'er took off her glasses and permed her hair, and the shape of the flaming red lips stunned all the sisters present, and also marked that she finally broke through the inner shackles.
Like Guan Juer, Qiao Xin was also a neglected presence in the show business circle.
Although the Chinese opera starred in such a big production as "Langya List" as soon as he graduated, in the following years, Qiao Xin's development was mediocre, and the role he played did not leave any impression on the audience.
Even in "Ode to Joy", the gentle and low-key Guan Ju'er is the least talked about among the "five beauty".
However, this gentle and considerate lady image still harvested the good feelings of many viewers, and in the second part, the change of Guan Juer's style and personality made Qiao Xin the focus of the audience's hot discussion.
After the fame soared, Qiao Xin's resources did improve a lot.
Most of the plays participated in are also female number one, such as "While We Are Young" and "Ordinary Glory", partnered with zhang Yunlong, Xu Weizhou, Zhao Youting, Bai Jingting and other first-line actors, and there are more and more commercial activities outside the venue.
But Qiao Xin has a problem that has been criticized by the audience, that is, her eyes are large and unfocused, and she can't see it very well with glasses, and the problem of taking off her glasses is magnified.
To be honest, Qiao Xin's acting skills are not bad, and the feeling and temperament of the character can be grasped, but sometimes the eyes cannot be integrated into the performance, which often affects the overall level of the performance.
This also led to the audience not remembering her after performing these plays. In addition, these several female works rarely break the circle, and Qiao Xin is gradually forgotten by the audience.
Last year, Qiao Xin participated in two theaters, one is "Peak Explosion", and the other is "Embracing You Through the Cold Winter" starring Huang Bo and Jia Ling, but because of the drama, most people do not realize her existence in the film.
Qiao Xin is only 29 years old this year, just 5 years after the fire fell into silence, red fast, sink fast, let people regret it, but Qiao Xin's family is rich, "rich and white" She does not have to worry about future life.
4, Wang Ziwen: "Qu Xiaoxiu" who is living in the spring breeze, a "Ye Wenjie" has been expected to be full
Qu Xiaoxiu in "Ode to Joy" is a veritable rich second generation.
This eccentric girl has a rebellious temperament of "my life is up to me", which makes her stand out from the crowd of girls.
But this girl who is usually mean and high-minded has become a feminine and brutal little girl in front of her beloved Dr. Zhao, which makes a serious Dr. Zhao helpless and difficult to extricate herself.
This prickly, love-and-hate leprechaun is, in the words of Wang Ziwen, "a variety of Mary Sues."
At the age of 15, he went to South Korea as a trainee and began to step into the show business circle, and by 2006, he officially became an actor in "Who Is My Father", and Wang Ziwen, who became famous in 20 years, was inspirational enough.
After going out of the circle with the role of Qu Xiaoxiu, Wang Ziwen and Wang Kai cooperated in the suspense drama "If snails have love" while the iron was hot, which satisfied the CP psychology of many audiences.
In the past few years, Wang Ziwen's resources have been quite good, and he has cooperated with cao Baoping, Zhang Yimou, Hu Mei and other big directors, and he has also gained his love in the variety show "Suddenly Moving Again".
But Qu Xiaoxiu's image is too deeply rooted in people's hearts, although after "Ode to Joy" Wang Ziwen continued to play, the audience's first impression of her is qu Xiaoxiu.
Not being able to meet such a rich and multi-faceted role as Qu Xiaoxiu is a pity for an actress with a flexible temperament like Wang Ziwen.
But When Pigo took a look at Wang Ziwen's work, he might usher in a new breakthrough.
For example, the upcoming drama version of "Three-Body Problem", in this high-profile IP drama, Wang Ziwen plays the heroine Ye Wenjie, and her character modeling has been praised by many viewers, and people's expectations are full.
In addition, Wang Ziwen also has "She Kills", "Chinese Criminal Police", "Gentle Shell" and many other works have not yet been broadcast, I don't know if the next two years can be successfully transformed?
5, Liu Tao: "Andy", whose acting skills have been overrated, can he play two "turnaround battles"
In the eyes of many people, Andy, played by Liu Tao, is a career-oriented strong woman.
As an elite returnee returning from a Wall Street company, Andy is an "idle class" with a car and a house and money, exuding a rational and mature elite temperament.
But she is also an emotional weak, because of the family's mental history, she does not dare to really invest in love, which has also become a demon in her heart.
Only in front of her friends will Andy spit out her inner fear and vulnerability, allowing people to see the other side of her high-cold appearance.
Before "Ode to Joy", Liu Taogang played the role of the lord of the Phoenix County in Kong Sheng's "Langya List", because this cooperation gave Liu Tao the opportunity to play Andy.
Liu Tao later admitted that she had never played such a strong-looking but emotionally handicapped role, and she also groped for a long time to understand how to play such an "emotional little white" image.
Despite being famous for many years, "Ode to Joy" broke the audience's inherent impression of Liu Tao's past "virtuous wife and good mother", and Liu Tao's fame has also gone all the way up.
But in the past two years, although Liu Tao's popularity has not decreased, he lacks weighty works to match it.
"Chasing Dreams", "I Really Love You", "The Sea of Stars", almost broadcast a flutter, especially the big female lead drama "Great Song Palace Words" that has been pinned on high hopes, and it is even more tragically criticized by netizens.
It is no wonder that some netizens said that After leaving "Ode to Joy", Liu Tao almost became a professional household in bad dramas.
It can be seen that most of Liu Tao's roles after "Ode to Joy" are playing homogeneous images, coupled with the poor reputation of several works, to a certain extent, Liu Tao has gradually drifted away from the title of "strength faction".
Even after starring in a hot drama such as "The Beginning", Liu Tao's interpretation of the role of police chief was also questioned, feeling completely different from the whole drama.
Especially compared with Liu Yijun, Liu Dan and others in the same drama, Liu Tao's indifferent face throughout the performance is even more unbearable to look at.
In fact, for Liu Tao now, she has enough popularity, and what needs to be done now is to "create a sense of freshness" and let the audience see more possibilities in Liu Tao's identity as an actor.
After Pi Ge saw that Liu Tao had two big dramas "Battle shanghai" and "County Party Committee Compound" to be broadcast, I don't know if I can play a beautiful "turnaround battle".
Looking at these 5 actors now, some people are no longer famous, and some people are still radiant, in large part because they have acting skills to support, not just a flash in the pan.
For actors, whether they choose to be "traffic factions" or "strength factions", the premise is to be a "good actor" in order to maintain competitiveness.
I hope that "Ode to Joy Five Beauty" will continue to output wonderful roles in film and television works, and prove their strength with acting skills!
