Yang Mi was praised by official media.
Chinese Internet official Weiwei said that she returned to the original intention of the actor.
The China News Agency's National Through Train said: Only by not being kidnapped by the fan position can a good drama argue.
What's going on here? And listen to Tomato-kun.
01, Yang Mi's words tore apart the false glory of the "fan position"
Recently, iQiyi held a new film promotion meeting as scheduled, and officially announced nearly 100 film and television dramas produced by it in one breath.
In the excitement, there are two dramas that attract people's attention, one is "Harbin 1944" starring Qin Hao and Yang Mi, and the other is "South to North" starring Bai Jingting, Ding Yongdai and Jin Chen.
And the reason why these two dramas are concerned is because there is a common controversial point: fan position.
What is a fanbit? To put it bluntly, it is the order in which the names of the actors in the cast list, the first place is called one, the second is the second, and so on.
As early as before the promotion meeting, it was reported that in "Harbin 1944", Yang Mi would be suppressed by Qin Hao.
In this regard, netizens have different attitudes.
Some people feel that Yang Mi, as one of the most popular traffic actresses, will not agree to be suppressed by Qin Hao, who is not as popular as her.
Some people feel that although Qin Hao is not as popular as Yang Mi, he has been working hard in recent years, and he can win for himself by word of mouth.
With the official announcement of the play, the results were finally revealed, and Qin Hao's name was ranked before Yang Mi.
For a while, people who like Yang Mi complained about her, feeling that Erban was not worthy of Yang Mi's coffee position, and those who hated Yang Mi laughed at her for only playing a second time after 20 years in the entertainment industry.
Just when everyone thought that a pink and black war was about to start pulling again, Yang Mi himself showed the truce card.
She posted an article to show her attitude towards the fanbit, saying that the first task of an actor is to shape the character, and everything, including the fanbit, should make way for the role.
Yang Mi's statement not only won the praise of the official media, but also shredded the false glory of the "fan position" - this move can be described as a profound righteousness, not only convincing the people who complained about her, but also blocking the mouths of black fans; The controversy over the position of "Harbin 1944" was also raised high and gently put down because of Yang Mi's timely voice.
But "South to North" has no such luck.
On the same day, "South to North" also carried publicity.
But a keen audience noticed that the order of the actors in the promotional copy and the order at the time of start-up changed.
When it started, the starring order was Bai Jingting Yiban, Jin Chen Erfan, and Ding Yongdai followed closely, but in the latest promotional copy, the positions of Ding Yongdai and Jin Chen fell by one.
For this reason, Jin Chen's fans cried out for Jin Chen, saying that Jin Chen was "deceived".
And what added a fire to the mood of the melon-eating masses was a retweet from Ding Yongdai.
On the same day, Ding Yongdai forwarded a piece of content about Jin Chen's fan discussion, accompanied by several incomprehensible expressions.
On the surface, this retweet seems to be a statement in support of Jin Chen's fans, but if you think about it, you will find that there are a lot of articles.
Ding Yongdai is the beneficiary of this position change, and he also actively cooperated with the drama party to carry out various publicity on the same day, there is no reason to complain about Jin Chen, after all, he occupies Jin Chen's original position.
Therefore, some people feel that Ding Yongdai's forwarding is actually connotating the insignificance of Jinchen's fans.
Not long after, Ding Yongdai deleted the retweet, making people feel that he was not retweeting to support anyone.
After that, Jin Chen also posted that he did not want any sound to blur and affect the work, saying that a good role is the only criterion for an actor to choose a work.
This gradually calmed down the turmoil caused by the position.
In fact, on that day, there was more than two dramas that were discussed because of the position.
"Immortal Sword 4" because the male and female protagonist fans feel that they should be at home, resulting in the drama party directly not officially announcing the cast that day.
On the same day, a number of disputes caused by fan positions broke out, proving that this is no longer an accidental phenomenon, it can be said that the dispute over fan positions is becoming the norm in the entertainment industry.
02. Who cares more about the "battle for positions"
In fact, ordinary audiences watching dramas, will not care whose name is in the front, whose name is in the back, it doesn't matter what position, so who cares about the position?
There are mainly two groups, one is the fans and the other is the actors themselves.
Now many people chase stars, not only the stars themselves, but also the halo on them.
Bigger than height, than appearance, than whose clothes are bigger ... Comparison has become the norm for groupies.
And when this comparison mentality meets the performance, it is not who has better acting skills and whose role is more brilliant, but gradually becomes a comparison of positions.
In recent years, there have been many examples of celebrity fans fighting because they are dissatisfied with the position.
Not long ago, the movie "Volunteers" directed by Chen Kaige officially announced the starring lineup, and everyone thought that Zhu Yilong was a fan before the official announcement, but the final version Xin Baiqing pressed him.
This result caused dissatisfaction among Zhu Yilong's fans.
Fans of Xu Kai and Tan Songyun also looked at each other unfavorably because they were flat in "You Are More Beautiful than Starlight", and felt that being equal was an insult to their favorite stars.
The battle for the position of "Green Hairpin Line" is even more exaggerated, and the fans of the male and female protagonists fight with the gods, but it allows the drama party to create a new idea of the official announcement of the flat fan.
The way the actors' names are scrolled is really eye-opening.
Because the trouble was so fierce, it even alarmed CCTV in the end, and directly criticized the battle for the position is boring, fans and the production team should pay attention to the actor's acting skills and the audience's word of mouth.
In order to completely curb this unhealthy trend, as early as 2021, the relevant departments explicitly required that the signing method, order, and position of actors should be performed in accordance with the contract to avoid disputes over positions.
However, the explicit regulations cannot suppress this crooked trend, on the one hand, because the number of fans is large, it is indeed difficult to control; On the other hand, the actor himself is actually competing with the position.
Jiang Shuying was once asked what kind of existence the Fan position was, and at that time, the crusade over the Fan position was not as strong as it is now, so she dared to tell the truth, and her answer was a god-like existence.
This answer shows the weight of Fan in the minds of some actors.
As a person in the industry, although he said that the position was not important, he also said that if someone came to compete with his own artist, he would give it to them.
But when "Camp with Love" was filmed, fans of Bai Lu and Wang Hedi were also controversial because of the position, at that time, Yu Zhengke did not let Bai Lu out as readily as he said, and said that not robbing the fan does not mean that he wants to let the fan and do charity? .
And when he gave Bai Lu support, he even printed "Ichiban" on the poster.
From this point of view, from stars to fans, they all value the position as bigger than the sky, and in this environment, the battle for the position cannot disappear.
03. The "battle for positions" is not worth mentioning in the face of strength
Is it really that important to be favored by so many people?
Excellent actors tell you that the fan position is actually nothing, and strength is the most effective business card for an actor.
In "Crazy", Zhang Songwen's name is ranked after Zhang Yi, but no one can deny his demeanor in the play.
After the broadcast of "Crazy", the most impressive person was Gao Qiqiang, and now everyone who walks to the vegetable market and sees the fish seller can think of him, and this influence has not been weakened by the name being ranked later.
In "Thirty Only", Tong Yao's position is not as good as Jiang Shuying, but the most impressive and outstanding in this drama is her.
Kuotai bag socialization, slapping the parents of students who bully their sons, tearing mistress by hand, all the plots out of the circle are all from the role played by Tong Yao.
What about being a second player? In the hearts of the audience, she is the real part of this show.
There is also this year's high-scoring drama "Long Season", although Qin Hao is the second time, he used his strength to make the audience remember him.
Especially for the sake of the role to gain weight and lose fat in a short period of time, if the two of them, so dedicated, who dares to deny his profession because he is a second time?
The most memorable splash smile scene in "Mountains and Seas" is presented by Reiza, who ranks eighth in the cast.
These actors shredded the false glory brought by the position, making people see that what they should really fight as actors is acting.
If the acting skills are not good, even if you are in a position, you will still be robbed of your style in the end.
Fortunately, more and more actors have made it clear that they don't care about the position.
Luo Jin said that the actor is acting in a play, not a position.
Li Yitong asked rhetorically, can you give two more sons?
Bai Yu said that acting is acting well, and will not consider anything other than acting.
The truth that the position is not important, the actor must understand, and the fans must also understand.
There is a saying in Chinese: "No diamond does not take porcelain work", for the sake of false glory, forcibly fight for the so-called one for your idol, if the strength is not good, then it will only make people feel that virtue is not worthy of the position, not only does not have a long face, but is more humiliating.
It is estimated that the atmosphere of staring at the position will not dissipate for a while, but this wind cannot be long.
Because, "fan position" cannot give face to the actor, and face is given by the audience; What the actors should fight for should not be the order of the names on the cast, but the order in the audience's mind.
