Recently, a TV series with realistic themes is quietly harvesting the ratings of major platforms, although it did not get too good results at the beginning.
But basically every time it is updated, the ratings will rise once, and "The Great Examination" may become one of the popular dramas that everyone chases in the nest during the National Day.
It is not difficult to see from the name of the TV series that this TV series revolves around the "exam".
The high school student played by Li Gengxi has become a "left-behind candidate" because her parents are out of the house all the year, without the company of her parents, and without the care of her parents, she takes care of herself every day, occasionally has a fever and is sick, and only the class teacher accompanies her.
Perhaps it is the environment of life since childhood, so that Tian Wenwen, played by Li Gengxi, has become much more mature than children of the same age, understands things, and is stronger in the face of difficulties.
For this role, Li Gengxi also said that there are some differences from the high school students he played before, and he faces more challenges, because the character of "Tian Wenwen" is very different from his own.
In addition to being sensible in the play, Tian Wenwen's patience and tolerance are also her biggest personality characteristics, although this is what we often call virtues.
But it is also undeniable that the reason for such a personality is mostly because there is no parent's company around, so Tian Wenwen can only choose to tolerate some things after encountering some things.
But fortunately, later Tian Wenwen learned how to vent her inner emotions and dissatisfaction, and she could not blindly tolerate it, so at the time when Tian Wenwen's personality exploded, Li Gengxi was also worried, and she did not know how to grasp it properly.
In order to make the character more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, Li Gengxi also discovers through the life around him, and also practices using his eyes and expressions to convey this emotion.
In addition to studying the character personality, Li Gengxi also read the background information of the story, which is set in the 2020 flood in Shexian County, Anhui Province, because the disaster caused the delay of the college entrance examination, and Tian Wenwen was one of the survivors who were rescued from this flood.
Li Gengxi also mentioned this clip in an interview, when filming the flood scene, it can almost be said that it is a 1:1 restoration, and the moment when he was deeply immersed in it, Zhou Bowen's father reached out to save himself, it was like the real thing, and there was still the impulse to thank Zhou Bowen's father.
Even the actors themselves have been substituted into it, not to mention the audience in front of the TV series, and some netizens have also said that they were touched by Li Gengxi's performance.
In fact, this is not the first time that Li Gengxi has starred in a college entrance examination, she has acted once before in "Little Joy", and it has been well received, and the role she played at that time, "Ying Zi", and Tian Wenwen have some similarities, one is that her parents are not around, and the other is a single-parent family, all of which have a more mature side than their peers.
Therefore, for Li Gengxi, this time playing Tian Wenwen still has certain advantages.
Judging from her current performance, she is also more skilled than in "Little Joy", and even some netizens believe that Li Gengxi can already become a "professional household for college entrance examinations".
However, a drama can not be supported by only one actor, in addition to Li Gengxi, the other two young actors also performed well, Hu Xianxu, Rong Zishan are young actors in the strength and appearance of coexisting.
Of course, it is also indispensable to the joining of two old artists, and when I saw Wang Qianyuan play the principal, I was actually not used to it.
Because most of the film and television dramas he usually plays are policemen, suddenly becoming a principal is still a bit jumpy, how to look like a gentle and elegant headmaster face.
However, under the portrayal of Wang Qianyuan, the audience is soon familiar with his new identity, and perhaps the director also knows the advantages and disadvantages of choosing Wang Qianyuan, which is also a kind of trust and recognition of Wang Qianyuan.
As for the old principal "Chen Baoguo", he played this role with ease, and he could feel the majesty of the principal as soon as he appeared, especially when expressing the feelings of the characters, such as when it came to his deceased daughter, a sentence: You have passed, I can't get by. In an instant, the feelings were full, and the old principal had tears in his eyes, but the audience had already burst into tears.
I have to say that on the portrayal of emotional drama or the old drama bones have experience, which fully proves that if you want to move the audience, you don't have to cry and make a fuss, sometimes a subtle action and eye look is enough to pull the audience's emotions to the extreme.
"Big Test" does not have too much gorgeous language, there is no exaggerated plot, more is to use details and feelings to drive the direction of the whole play, each actor has its own mission, not the lead actor will occupy all the halo, if you use the face value to compare "Big Test", then she is a cute woman, not amazing, but the more you look at it, the more you like it.
At present, the ratings of "The Great Examination" have been squeezed into the top three, not to say that it can get the first, but according to the current trend, there should be no big problem in ranking in the top three, and I only hope that it will not be bad.
