Every era has a well-known child star, and in the hearts of the post-85s to post-90s generation, the name Cao Jun is definitely unavoidable. When he was a little younger, he watched his "Nine-year-old County Grandmaster" and grew up watching his "Pauline Lantern" when he was a teenager.
It's just that when we grow up, Cao Jun has gradually lost his voice in the film and television circle, and he is also facing the embarrassing situation of being invisible to everyone when he grows up like many child stars.
The turbulent and displaced Cao Jun, the real dream showbiz
The most impressive thing is that in 2016, actress Lan Yingying announced that she was in love with Cao Jun, and at that time everyone called her the girlfriend of child star Cao Jun.
It's just that after "Little Husband" and "Surgical Storm", Lan Yingying began to have a little fame, and the first reaction of the audience when they mentioned Cao Jun at this time was: he was Lan Yingying's boyfriend.
The film and television circle is a realistic small society, when you are famous, the stars are bright and beautiful, and after the trough, no one cares.
Of course, Cao Jun is also completely without drama, at least he can also act in the internet and network dramas, and occasionally appear on variety shows, such as "I am an actor" and Guo Qilin acted together, and as a result, Cao Jun, who was born in the class, still lost.
As for whether to lose in acting skills or traffic, the benevolent see the wise.
On the stage of "Actors Please Take Place", Cao Jun was ranked last among 40 actors, even less than Zhang Dada. At this time, the audience found that he was losing on the traffic.
In this era with heat and traffic index as the first indicator, the little traffic accumulated in Cao Jun's child star era is completely insufficient to compete with other young idols.
So in the "Actor Please Take Place" Cao Jun became the "no one to choose", the first round of performance was selected by Tang Yifei, under the suppression of Tang Yifei's strong personality, Cao Jun could only act according to the requirements of the woman; the second round was the penultimate can only be selected, the result of cooperation "Wuji", obviously the best performance but still no one is selected, he is so eliminated.
It's not so much that there are no directors and peers to choose him, but that the market doesn't need him much.
Before this show, Cao Jun was really not chosen, but after Cao Jun was eliminated, someone finally remembered him, and that person was Dapeng.
Dapeng selected Cao Jun to be shortlisted for the "Star Sea" actor selection program hosted by the Movie Channel, when Cao Jun will appear at the closing ceremony of the Golden Rooster Awards with Zhou Dongyu, Yang Zi, Yi Yanqianxi and others. Although it is only an appearance, it is also one of the few appearances of Cao Jun on such a big stage in the past 10 years.
Although Cao Jun was eliminated by "Actors Please Take Place" early, in general, the program team at least used the audience's "yi nanping" to Cao Jun to gain a large wave of traffic. Cao Jun also finally ushered in a new opportunity after years of silence, at least the sudden launch of the new drama he starred in was a signal.
Cao Junnan's no. 1 new drama has begun, and the audience is afraid that it will be disappointed
This is really a long time to see, Cao Jun, such a former child star, it turns out that he can still be a male number one. It's just that Cao Jun's title "Our Reverse Youth" does not seem to be a popular youth idol theme in the market, but a youth inspirational theme.
It's just that this drama exudes a "sense of cheapness" from the director and director, director Tian Zicheng is from the MV, before filming this drama, he has only directed one big online movie, and he is a newcomer in the field of network drama.
Looking at the cast, male no. 1 Cao Jun is the only actor who is a bit famous, and female no. 1 Hu Jieqiong once brushed a sense of existence in the short drama "Never Expected", and there is no fame at all in the entertainment industry.
As for Liu Chengrui, Shao Yun and others, they are the eighteenth line in the entertainment industry, think carefully about such a drama being broadcast without any publicity, can it have a good communication effect?
Judging from the plot summary, Cao Jun has emotional drama and family drama in the play, and the effect of his crying scene in the stills is good, and the actress's crying scene bumps into Deng Jiajia.
Just in the current market environment, can a youth series drama really conquer the audience by relying on the acting skills of the actors alone? I don't think so, unless the quality of the drama is very high, but this "Our Reverse Youth" is just a low-cost web drama no matter how you look at it.
Obviously, the reason why the platform made this drama suddenly broadcast is more that Cao Jun just has a trend of turning popular, but in his stage of most need of good script blessings, a new drama of unknown quality was suddenly released, which is obviously to use Cao Jun's fame to bring new people.
For Cao Jun, it is very good to have a scene, where is the qualification to pick a script?
At the end of the day: actors are just commodities, and capital can determine their destiny
Yes, if it weren't for Cao Jun's slightly heated, this drama might have sunk into the sea and never had a chance to meet the audience. At the end of the day, platforms and film and television companies are all planning for profit, and actors are just commodities in their hands.
When capital thinks that an actor has value, it can arrange some works and variety shows to be exposed.
For film and television companies, Cao Jun's participation in "Actors Please Take Place" is a bit hot, so let this "Our Reverse Youth" be broadcast!
This phenomenon that the market determines the fate of actors is most evident in the variety show "Actors Please Take Place". Cao Jun has no market for child stars, so Er Dongsheng and Chen Kaige will give him encouragement, but no one will choose, because mainstream film and television companies can't look up.
Guo Jingming gave He Changxi 3 S cards in a row, why is this? Because He Changxi is from an idol boy band, he is young, there are fans and traffic, that capital thinks he has potential, then Guo Jingming will definitely protect him.
Chen Youwei has been guaranteed to the final is also to eat the dividends of traffic, when Chen Kaige said: "This show is a program that encourages new actors", in fact, the audience should also understand which actors can slowly come to the end and have the answer at the beginning.
Capital will give priority to the popular small fresh meat that can be realized the fastest, so cao Jun's kind of former child stars will naturally be abandoned.
And the actors who have no traffic represented by Cao Jun, do they have a choice in the show business circle? No, if the company wants him to bring a group of new people to act, then he has to let the new people "suck blood", because if this script is not made, the next script may have no hope.
Under such a vicious circle, more and more powerful actors have to bend down to shoot low-cost web dramas, net big and bad idol dramas to match newcomers, and occasionally if they are lucky enough to meet a good script, they will be praised for their acting skills online. If you are unlucky and encounter a bad script, you can only think that you are unlucky, and the good reputation accumulated in the early years will eventually be insecure in your old age.
Just imagine, Liu Yijun starred in "Yan Yuntai", Wang Jinsong, Yin Xiaotian, Bao Jianfeng and others starred in "Thunder Warrior" is really their own willingness to take this kind of drama? I think a bigger part of it is because they are the commodities of the brokerage company themselves, under the company's arrangement, if they do not shoot, can they still get resources in the future?
The current film and television circle is deformed, but this is also the natural law of the market, and it is still difficult for a small actor like Cao Jun to get ahead. #Cao Junnan No. 1 new drama began broadcasting ##演员请就位 #
