The popularity of "Long Season" has not receded after it has been crowned, and the word-of-mouth overturn of the blockbuster "Long Moon Ember Ming" is still controversial, and the ratings of the CCTV drama "Ordinary Road" have reached a new high.
The works with a good lineup are quite lively, except for "Grandma's New World", which quietly started.
To be precise, it is coming to an end.
That's right, the return of the Grand Slam and the screenwriter Li Xiang, who has not been out of the mountain for more than ten years, such a strong configuration, the broadcast works are unremarkable, and no one even cares that there are two or three days to end.
Not to mention that the popularity did not exceed the final two weeks of "The Long Season", even the ancient puppets next door who were spit out of the circle because of rotten are not comparable.
Douban 7.4 points, sounds okay.
Take a closer look, only 3,000 people rated, you must know that "The Long Season" is rated by 470,000 people.
Even the pounce is silent, which is also too miserable.
Even if people pretend to be tender and greasy to act in a bad movie after the slam view, they can also search all over the sky.
And Yan Ni obviously has good acting skills, even the theme and intention are extremely profound, so there is no splash.
Looking back at "Grandma's New World", both the style and the expression are excellent.
The actors are all good actors, the unit story is unique and novel, and the script is not bad, not to mention Yan Ni's strength.
Through the glamorous coat of this drama, you can deeply pick up the reason for its hit on the street.
It is not difficult to find that Yan Ni, who holds the "Grand Slam title", may have sounded the alarm for middle-aged actresses through this drama.
First, the intention is profound but the process is sloppy, and the form is greater than the running account of the plot
In my opinion, "Grandma's New World" is indeed a clear stream in the female theme, and it is a work shot from a female perspective.
But its narrative style may be somewhat inconsistent with the aesthetics of mainland audiences.
The script is online, especially the points of each short story are very novel and even have successive reversals, and the characters involved are eye-catching in the setting.
For example, the fugitive Liao Xiangmei, the coffee shop owner Zhu Meihong, the perverted Shen Dong, and the selfish and bizarre Chen Pingping.
Everyone is very exploratory, and it is also true, if each story is told in more detail, it may attract more attention.
For example, Shen Dong, who abused cats, appeared just when hot events were prevalent.
There is no large-scale picture that pokes people's pain points, and the actors are relatively well acted.
The happy twisted musical actor Yu Xiaoxuan did give the audience a big surprise.
However, there is no detailed description of the entire cat abuse incident to the psychological distortion of the protagonist Shen Dong, and then to the specific solution or ending.
Tian Shufang was forced by her son to learn to dance, do live broadcasts, and deduct her pension, and finally washed her white on the grounds that she took out a loan to buy another sea-view house in order to realize her mother's idea.
Let the mother lay down her dignity, be treated unequally, and speak ill of each other, this is how he "filial piety".
Yang Liu was sexually harassed and finally chose to give up defending her rights, which is understandable.
But more than once, Mr. Zhou, who has salted pig hands and violated the rights and interests of female subordinates, can be engaged to Yang Liu, who has no power and power, and was killed by himself, which is also too far-fetched.
What's more, Sun Yuping pulled the brake at the engagement banquet between the two, because there was no electricity, and Mr. Zhou and Yang Liu parted ways.
Or is it introduced by the narrator, and the audience is not incomprehensible, but this forced ending is not perfunctory to the audience?
It's not that you can't make a wonderful story if you are small, it's just that "Grandma's New World" obviously doesn't give actors room to play.
A large number of narrations make the whole drama into a running account form, the plot is sloppy, and each story is shallowly stopped, as if it has not yet reached the climax.
Liu Lin, Geng Le, and Wang Jinsong portray the characters extremely well with a handful of lenses, but to be honest, their strength is much more than that.
Not to mention Li Naiwen, Hou Yansong and other drama bones.
Perhaps the director is also accustomed to telling the story in the form of short films, and it may be well received if it is cut out alone, but when it is placed together in the TV series, it seems endless and illogical.
Only when the true profoundness is revealed can the audience empathize.
Take the "Name of the Rose" small unit that can poke the pain point the most.
Chen Tong, who is infatuated and responsible on the surface, is actually selfish and incorrect, he lied that the vegetative Haiyan is his sister, and he has to take care of Haiyan while looking for a wife.
With violent tendencies and extreme personalities, such stories are explosive in the entire TV drama market.
The story of shattering the three views in this way took about fifty minutes to tell.
This is less than an episode in "The Long Season".
The same is true for other units, the guilt of cat abusers, the disgusting harassment of superiors in the workplace, twisted love, and so on.
It's just a chicken soup style shouting slogan, and the profound intention can only be wasted.
Second, the old age makeup is too fake, Yan Ni's acting skills are in the face of the play
A 52-year-old person plays an old lady who is about 60 years old, does it sound like there is no sense of violation.
But what if this actor is Yan Ni.
The deepest meaning of "Grandma's World" is to tell the audience that no matter what age you can find yourself and break through yourself.
But it is this kind of drama that breaks the age limit, the heroine's face is incompatible with the actual persona, and she can't enter the play at a glance, and naturally she won't continue to chase the drama.
The smooth and delicate skin can be comparable to the actors in their twenties on the same screen, except for the old wrinkles on the forced painting, the brow wrinkles cannot be wrinkled.
Grinning, abrupt double eyelids, clearly visible under-eye bags and nasolabial folds, and incredibly smooth and shiny skin with age spots.
And the kind porcelain tooth, which really makes people can't get into the play.
In fact, Yan Ni has made a lot of sacrifices, and roles like "grandmother" are taboo for many actresses.
Being able to take on such a role shows Yan Ni's courage and professionalism.
But to be honest, isn't it a little powerless to hold such a "shelled egg" face to tell others not to be limited by age.
If it's just Yan Ni pretending to be old alone, it's actually okay.
I can't stand other actors around to make comparisons.
Liu Lin plays Sun Yuping's good sister in the play, and when she appears in the camera, netizens in front of the screen can't help but marvel.
Three years younger than Yan Ni, she is the real "pretending to be old", and the sunken face, eye bags, eyebrow wrinkles, and the gullies and ravines at the corners of her mouth are all undoubtedly leaked.
Although Yan Ni's acting skills are online, when her face does not match her age, she cannot show the audience her own experience and sense of age.
The apple muscles, which are "fuller" and stiffer than children, only have crow's feet made by special effects on the whole face, even if they are in a good mood, they cannot "rejuvenate".
Many netizens said that elderly makeup is not real and has no sense of substitution, and it is even better not to add special effects makeup.
The strength is bursting, and the audience also recognizes it, but because of the change in appearance, people complain, and it is really worth the loss.
Third, some faces, once changed, can never go back
Everyone has a heart for beauty, especially actresses, to resist high-definition lenses to present the audience with the best state, maintenance is a must.
The audience actually understands, but if you have to "technology and ruthless" the whole point, you can only be on the road to repair forever.
For the matter of medical beauty, the attitude of insiders is relatively consistent.
Zhang Meng once became popular for "Three Thousand Gold of the Xia Family", she looks pure and lovely, her performance is smart, and she is also very out of the circle in the same frame as others.
Originally the future was promising, but she shifted her face.
And it's the kind that moves more and more ugly, and the more ugly it looks, the more it moves.
What follows is endless repairs and restorations.
It is impossible to return to the previous state of affairs without recovery.
Because of this, Zhang Meng also publicly cried in the online complex, saying that the thing she regretted the most in her life was plastic surgery.
Indeed, one side is over, and the nose is going to poke out.
Yu Zhengzheng, who was sitting in the judges' seat, spoke bluntly, saying in public that he had seen her after many days, and was "scared to death" by his nose as soon as he hit the eyes.
Although the sentence that I found behind it seems to be gone now, the picture turned to Zhang Meng's face, and it was not convincing.
Hearing this, Li Chengru couldn't help but speak.
He should have seen many examples of the entertainment industry burying his acting career due to medical beauty.
Li Chengru took the stubble and said that "any arrival on your face will affect your performance."
Even actors know that there is no such thing as a director who has to cast his own work.
The three words "Mou girl" have now become a label for newcomer actors to become popular, and the eyes of the old Mozi are the famous "poison".
In the CCTV interview, Zhang Yimou repeatedly pointed out without scruples that the muscles of the face will be damaged as long as they move slightly, which will definitely affect the performance.
There are too many such examples.
Actresses who pay special attention to their faces will also be more cautious in terms of "technology and ruthlessness".
Yan Ni's personality has always been relatively hearty, and even for the matter of medical beauty, the projects she has done have confessed in the show.
Of course, cutting your eyelids is normal.
In pursuit of higher appearance and a better self, it is nothing to have a double eyelid.
It's just that with age, especially in his fifties, this eyelid has been visibly pulled down.
Even beauty needles are such a thing, Yan Ni admitted in the interview.
Had to admire her directness again.
But after all, it is not her own collagen, and when it comes to the camera, Yan Ni's face is no longer so natural.
Whether it is "Dear Parents" dressed tenderly, combed with twisted braids, or "Youth Pi 2", as long as Yan Ni appears, the audience will play in a second.
The whole face, eyes and mouth will move, but no matter how exaggerated the expression is, the facial muscles are stiff and can't move, and the eyebrows are a little difficult to wrinkle together.
No matter how powerful an actor is, it has become an embarrassing existence after medical beauty.
The skin is in good condition, you can play a girl pretending to be tender, you will definitely be scolded, and there is a sense of violation in playing the age-appropriate old age.
Even wrinkles rely on makeup, which is also outrageous.
The big heroine drama after the slam TV did not have a little splash, and Yan Ni's return this time undoubtedly sounded the alarm for other actors in the film and television industry.
Some faces, once moved, can not go back.
