The recently concluded "Rebel" once again raised the audience's expectations for spy dramas, whether it was Zhu Yilong and Tong Yao of the younger generation, or the old drama bones Wang Zhiwen and Li Qiang all contributed superb acting skills.
Recently, another spy drama "Hengshan Hospital" has struck, so that the audience who "entered the pit" because of "Rebel" can once again feast their eyes.
Starring Yang Zi's ex-boyfriend Qin Junjie, Tu Yansong and others, the drama unfolds with the identity of the two as a clue, telling the process of small people from selfishness to righteousness.
The "battlefield" is condensed in a hospital, competing with many forces, praying mantises and yellow finches are difficult to distinguish, the plot is meticulous, tense and exciting, and there is a sense of horror film vision.
From the perspective of plot introduction and actor ranking, "Hengshan Hospital" can be seen as a "double male protagonist" drama, and the rivalry between Qin Junjie and Tu Yansong in the play is the main line.
Although the performances of the two male characters are very exciting, the audience's eyes are involuntarily attracted by the supporting actress played by the old drama bone Xi Meijuan.
Xi Meijuan's character in the play is the president of Hengshan Hospital, and in the plots of the first few episodes, it is not stated that she has a special identity, but only shows her communication ability and wisdom.
In the complicated situation at that time, on the one hand, she needed to deal with all the forces, on the other hand, she also had to maintain the safety of the hospital itself, and did her best to protect the weak under the overall situation.
But even if he did not show a special identity, the dean under Xi Meijuan's interpretation always gave people a sense of unfathomable every time he appeared, as if there were deeper secrets hidden under the calm appearance.
In addition, Xi Meijuan's role in the play is also one of the main drivers of the plot.
The setting of the play is the power competition and intrigue that occurs in the hospital, as the direct leader of the hospital, the role of the dean is the bridge connecting the direction of the event.
Judging from her actions and performances in the play, new surprises are expected to appear in the follow-up, and perhaps there is a deeper content around the dean waiting to be revealed.
In spy dramas, the mystery of the characters has a vital role in the characters themselves and the plot, which will affect the excitement of the plot to a certain extent.
There is no doubt that Xi Meijuan's performance in the play has done this, and people can't help but want to find out about the role she plays.
Xi Meijuan is a well-deserved old drama bone, she has won numerous awards for many years since her debut, and she also has the honor of a national first-class actor, which is enough to show the industry's recognition of her strength.
In the performance, Xi Meijuan's style is also very changeable, you can play the villain boss who is inconsistent and fierce, you can also play the gentle and virtuous infatuated grandmother, you can also play the spicy mother-in-law, you can reverse it, and use the amazing acting skills to interpret each character with different personalities.
Unfortunately, although Xi Meijuan has awards and strengths, most of the labels on her body are mainly based on the role of mother type, which is slightly single.
Like many old drama bones, Xi Meijuan, who is now 66 years old, is now playing almost all supporting roles, and even in some dramas, she is still a "soy sauce" role that does not play much.
Although this is the choice of the market, in the eyes of many viewers, it is still inevitable to regret Xi Meijuan and the old drama bones who are in the same situation as her.
Especially when film and television dramas are becoming more and more inclined to traffic, stars with popularity can act as protagonists, and powerful factions can only be "green leaves", this kind of difficulty is becoming more and more obvious, and even triggered a wave of inference that "watching the protagonists to see bad movies and bad dramas".
Of course, for the traffic we can not be killed with a stick, after all, there are still a lot of talent and hard work of small fresh meat, small flowers, I believe that in time, they will also become the main force in the film and television market.
And old drama bones such as Xi Meijuan also hope that the market can give them more opportunities and bring us more good works.
However, it can be seen from Xi Meijuan's supporting roles that even if good resources are difficult to tilt to them, superb acting skills can also make them stand out from a group of actors.
This time in "Hengshan Hospital", before, Xi Meijuan guest starred in the TV series "An Jia" starring Sun Li, which also triggered a wave of heated discussion and earned enough tears from the audience.
It can be seen that strength is the last word, and even if there is acting, even if it is a supporting role, it can bloom.
From this point of view, although Xi Meijuan rarely has a protagonist work now, who can say that her acting career is not successful?
However, compared with the development of her career, Xi Meijuan's real life outside the play is somewhat frustrated.
The actor profession has a special nature, which is also the main reason why many actors and couples are difficult to go to the end, and Xi Meijuan and her ex-husband Zhou Yemang have not been able to escape this "curse".
The name Zhou Yemang is not as loud as Xi Meijuan, but the role of Lin Chong, the "leopard head" he played earlier, is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
At that time, Xi Meijuan had a child at an advanced age, but still did not keep this marriage, and after parting ways with her ex-husband, she was willing to be a single mother, and it was painful to take the baby alone for many years.
On the other hand, the ex-husband Zhou Yemang is much more dashing, it is reported that he married "Qiong Girl" for the second time, and the two have also become a model of love in the circle.
The contrast between a single mother who takes a baby alone and a happy remarriage and a happy family is too obvious.
However, leaving aside the regrets of marriage, Xi Meijuan can be called a winner in life.
