"Hua Rong" premiered, the old routine of fantasy and bitterness, Ju Jingyi and Guo Junchen's acting skills are not flexible enough

On the evening of June 1, the TV series "Hua Rong" was launched on iQiyi 6 episodes and officially premiered. Starring Ju Jingyi, Guo Junchen and other actors, this TV series tells the love story of fantasy cultivators. Based on the current episodes, the narrative of the show is more old-fashioned, and the bitter content is a point of interest. The acting skills of Ju Jingyi and Guo Junchen are not flexible enough, and it is okay to say that they are dull.

The story is too old-fashioned, which is the biggest reason why "Hua Rong" is not good. The female protagonist has "superpowers", and the male protagonist is responsible for discovering these, and then, in the academy, the two are first teachers and students, then couples, and finally, all kinds of sadomasochism. This kind of fantasy drama, overwhelming, was already rotten ten years ago. So, it's too routine, it's not good-looking, it's not surprising, it's not interesting.

Of course, "Hua Rong" also has its own knowledge, that is, to circle the audience, especially female audiences, with bitter content. Most of our past bitter dramas are Qing Palace dramas or Republic of China dramas, and the heroine is particularly difficult, and there are always people who harm her. For example, the likes of "Huan Zhu Gege". This kind of drama is especially close to female audiences, especially female audiences whose lives are not satisfactory.

This time's "Hua Rong" is also a similar path. In the play, the heroine is also particularly difficult, and there are always people who bully her and look down on her. And the final trend of the plot must be that the heroine counterattacked, the identity counterattack, and the love counterattack. This kind of plot is actually to create dreams for women whose lives are unsatisfactory. Low-end audiences, especially satisfied with bitter dramas, can cry and laugh together.

The plot of the first few episodes of "Hua Rong" is basically a superposition of bitterness. When the heroine was a slave, it was not easy, her mother beat her, and after entering the academy, it was still not easy, it was not easy to study, and in life, she was bullied by the second young lady. This kind of content is actually to satisfy some women's cognition of their own life: my mother doesn't love me, and the school flower still bullies me. Those who can see this kind of TV series as good probably have similar cognition.

In addition to the old fantasy routine, in addition to the bitter old road, are the two protagonists of this TV series, and their acting skills are really thin. Ju Jingyi's thinness is not only reflected in her acting skills, but also in her food. This young actress, scrawny, as if she had been abused all the time in her life, could not eat enough. There is a slang term in our village for such a girl, called Chai He Niu.

The lens itself can make people fatter. Even so, Ju Jingyi is still skinny in the camera. This is something to pay attention to. This thin look is not only ugly, but also very withered. The withering of appearance directly caused the withering of acting skills. No aura, no wit, etc., are all Ju Jingyi's current problems. If she could eat a little more, the breath of "energetic people" between her eyebrows might be a little fuller.

In "Hua Rong", Ju Jingyi is a sluggish look of not having enough to eat in many bridge pictures, and she can't play the youthfulness of a young woman. In fact, this is not just a matter of personal acting skills, but the actress's sense of "boredom" in life. The heroine is bored, and the whole TV series is bored.

Even more boring than Ju Jingyi is Guo Junchen. When the young actor performs, he does not have a basic expression, like an unreasonably designed robot, only reading lines. In many fantasy dramas earlier, the male protagonists also had no acting skills. But it is rare to see such an excesses as Guo Junchen. Although fantasy bad dramas don't need any acting skills, at least, you can't just read the lines, but you should have a little sense of participation in the scene.

Zero expression is Guo Junchen's biggest problem. He has a similar problem in other TV series. Even if the character needs to provide emotions, he still can't act out emotions. The whole process looks like a repeater, which is not the state that an actor should have. In a state like this repeater, in fact, you don't need to use any actors, you can go directly to the robot. Guo Junchen's performance lowered the performance level of the already low fantasy drama.

In comparison, the sister and sister in this TV series, the two actresses, can act much more than Ju Jingyi and Guo Junchen. The younger sister plays a villain who bullies others, which belongs to her own drama. The older sister plays a good person on the surface level, and she is also much gentle and lovely. The plays of these two actors formed a contrasting relationship and achieved each other. Even if acting skills are not needed in fantasy dramas, it will still be relatively good to have a scene with a character contrast like sister flowers.

To sum up, I think that the TV series "Hua Rong" is a very low-quality fantasy drama work in recent times, with an outdated story, bitter feelings, and dull and weak acting skills of the male and female protagonists. Such a TV series can exist as a negative teaching material. (Text/Ma Qingyun)
