Text | Whoops
Since the beginning of spring, all walks of life have shown more obvious signs of recovery, and the film and television industry is no exception, building new groups, coding new plates, and trying new plays, in short, regardless of the front and back of the stage, it seems to be "busy". For the actors in the C position, it is "good cake" one after another, and the news of entering the group after the completion is also endless. Among them, especially the popular flowers with both topics and strength are the most lively.
Therefore, Xingfan will come today to make an observation of the popular flowers that support half of our cultural life, the time span is roughly the post-80s to post-00s, to see whether they have precipitated or been submerged in the past two or three years.
01
80-90 "Transformation"
That's right, this year's uncle circle is very hot. But uncles often have, and "Crazy" does not often have. It can be said that the current film and television market is still the post-80s generation. In the historical short drama "Daming under the Microscope", Zhang Ruoyun, the simple but still dazzling "national male protagonist" is a strong proof of this.
The ten-year time span makes the actors have their own different development in the specific path. However, overall, the 80-90 echelon can still be summarized by one keyword, that is, "transformation".
Among them, the big male protagonist and the big female protagonist are one of their first choices to consolidate their own power, and the aforementioned Zhang Ruoyun is a classic case. In addition, there are 85 flowers led by Zhao Liying, 90 flowers led by Yang Zi, etc. However, because this path is not low for the ability to carry dramas, so usually acting skills are just needed, so there are not too many latecomers, and 90 generation is counted as one. Obviously, at this moment, holding "Lotus Tower" and "Heroes", he is trying to open up his own path to the male protagonist with the theme of martial arts.
In fact, the fire gathering area of "transformation" is still in the two major themes of realism and suspense criminal investigation. For example, Sun Li and Luo Jin, two post-80s powerhouses who cooperated again in the suspense drama "Above the Clouds"; relying on the two dramas to be broadcast "Life Luyao" and "Thirteen Years in the Dust", 85 students Chen Xiao who have achieved dual-track parallelism; Bai Jingting, who further improved the texture in the era drama "South to North", as well as Xiao Zhan (era youth drama "The Sea in Dreams"), Gong Jun (era inspirational drama "Flying Elephant"), Di Li Gerba (prosecutorial drama "Public Prosecution Elite"), Ou Hao (suspense criminal investigation drama "Unspeakable") and so on.
With the rejuvenation of the main theme, the rekindling of the suspense criminal investigation heat, and the advancement of the wave of realism, most of the flowers of the 8090 echelon have used this as a springboard to begin transformation. For example, Ren Jialun is one of the first in his 90s to embark on the track of realistic transformation, and the masterpiece "Blue Flame Assault", but the effect is not as expected, but the subsequent male protagonist "Wu Gengji" may help him. Of course, there are also actors like Huang Jingyu, who are rooted in realistic themes such as military criminal investigation, and are taking sci-fi works such as "Sea of Dreams" as one of the options for reverse expansion.
In addition, the advancement from the TV drama circle to the international market of the movie screen is also a major feature of the transformation, the typical character is Zhu Yilong, who achieved a successful leap with the funeral theme "Life Events" last year, and then entered the suspense crime film "Mistakes by the River". This year, it is the duel between Zhao Liying and Yang Mi, the two 85 flowers, who will test the waters again for their transformation with the anti-trafficking film "Tiger and Wolf Road" and the comedy "No Hot Pot Can't Solve" respectively.
In fact, generally speaking, the transformation speed of "flowers" is slower than "birth" to a certain extent, whether it is the different opportunities given by the market, or the different flowering periods between male and female artists, or the same work is easier to produce than flowers, etc., so that some 90 flowers have not officially entered the transformation state.
For example, Tan Songyun, who just partnered with Xu Kai to group the urban romance drama "You Are More Beautiful Than Starlight" not long ago, and Yang Zi, who is filming campus love "199 Love" with Fan Chengcheng. The former may benefit from the babyface and sweet girl atmosphere and are in no hurry to transform; However, the latter is facing the risk of resource downgrade to a certain extent due to the lack of reputation of its works in the past two years, and at the same time, works such as the anti-drug movie "Hunting Drugs" and the big heroine ancient puppet drama "Sauvignon Blanc" that may bring them a turnaround are cut off.
It can be seen that for the 8090 echelon, in the context of "transformation", some people have taken the lead in completing corner overtaking, and some people need more patience.

90-00 "Topics"
As the predecessors transformed one by one, the positions of the original idol dramas and even traffic dramas began to be updated, and they were gradually filled by younger flowers.
For example, Zhao Lusi (to be broadcast "Secretly Can't Hide" and "Shenyin"), Yu Shuxin (to be broadcast "Immortal Sword Six Prayer to the Present Dynasty" and "Cloud Feather") and other 95 flowers who came out successively last year with their respective hits, are also welcoming a new round of melee in endless stockpiling and painting cakes.
However, it is not difficult to see from their respective follow-up works that the little flowers are basically still focused on the existing romance field, after all, they are still in a period of fierce competition, and they need to achieve sustainable circle powder powder, and whether ancient or occasional, as long as they can make people laugh, they can bring attention and topics to themselves.
And Wu Lei (to be broadcast "Love Only" and "In the Blizzard"), Wang Hedi (to be broadcast "Camp with Love"), Tan Jianci (to be broadcast "Sauvignon Blanc", "I miss you very much", "Wang Jinjin who was lost by me twice"), Zhang Linghe (to be broadcast "Ning'an Like a Dream" and "Cloud Feather") and other young students who went out with them last year, the path to get the topic is roughly the same.
In contrast, Song Zuer (to be broadcast "Worry-free Crossing" and "Bending the Waist") who first relied on word-of-mouth works such as "Children of the Qiao Family" and "The Sky of the Wind Dog Boy" to prove their acting skills, Zhang Jingyi ("He Came from the Fire" and "Wang Jinjin Who Was Lost Twice by Me") and others have to make up for the missing traffic in the subsequent dramas to be broadcast.
Although there is no rush for young flowers to transform, for artists such as Luo Yunxi and Zhang Binbin who are sandwiched between these two echelons, there seems to be some subtle embarrassment to go forward or backward.
Take Luo Yunxi as an example, with "Fragrant Honey Sinking Ashes Like Frost" and Yang Zi soaring together, the route style is similar to Cheng Yi from "Liuli", but the subsequent broadcast works with mediocre response, as well as the highly anticipated but delayed inventory ("Long Moon Ember Ming" and "Hao Yi Xing"), all make him always breathless, even the live puppet drama "Love Meets Darwin" that was just completed at the end of last year, for him at this stage, it is difficult to play a decisive role in the survival of the heat.
Of course, there are also post-00s flowers such as Zhang Zifeng (to be broadcast "Journey Through the Moon", "Crisis Route", "Great Victory", "Goodbye Dad"), Wen Qi (to be broadcast "I See Two Identical Clouds" and "Reindeer"), Liu Haocun (to be broadcast "Centrifugal Force" to be broadcast in the upcoming movie "Dragon Horse Spirit", "Thinking of Looking at Each Other", "Through the Darkness of Me") and other post-00s flowers that focus on the amphibious nature of film dramas, and Zhang Wanyi (to be broadcast "Father's Flag" and "Sauvignon Blanc"), which focus on the main theme and realism, Cultivate their own actor texture in the bones of old dramas, and occasionally go to the rising stage of the traffic drama to supplement their own topicality.
However, those who have traffic should be successful, and those who have word of mouth should be popular, which is the "truth" that has not changed for eternity. Before their strength grows enough to support their transformation, no matter which path they are taking, they are basically inseparable from the consolidation of their own value by "topics".

brief summary
In addition, there are some maverick students and flowers, such as "Tsing Yi" Li Qin, Jin Chen, etc. who swing back and forth in traffic dramas and word-of-mouth dramas, Li Yitong, Chen Duling, etc. who often "embellished" in big male protagonist dramas or male group portrait dramas, Xu Kai and Liu Yuning, who seamlessly enter the group and are eager to justify their acting skills.
In fact, there is always a lack of new faces in the market, just like so far this year, there has been a new wave of post-95 flowers like Li Hongyi, Ao Ruipeng, Wang Churan, Li Randi and so on, although compared to the early circle fans, with explosive "predecessors", they are considered latecomers, but because of this, their potential is unknown.
After understanding the theatrical path of many artists, we can find that the selection of plays is nothing more than deep cultivation and expansion, and only by clearly grasping their goals at this stage can they gain a foothold in the fierce market competition. Sometimes, seamless entry into the group does not lead to effective broadcasting, and there is a risk of being too obsessed with big IP and big productions. At present, many people have made a statement for "not advancing or retreating", perhaps some people can stop when making choices to give their future self more thought.
