After 95 years of internal entertainment, "Yan Ba" has become the trend, and "Yan Ba" should be a bonus, not a shackle
In the era of color appreciation, netizens like to comment on the appearance of domestic entertainment actors. Recently, netizens selected 95 Hua Yanba, Liu Haocun, Wang Churan, Zhou Ye, Zhao Lusi, and Song Zuer were on the list. The trend of the little flower beauty pageant has also blown to the small circle.
In the #Internal Entertainment Handsome Guys of All Ages# entry that appeared on Weibo, from the post-85s to the post-05s, with every five years as the dividing line, including Zhu Yilong, Chen Xiao, Cheng Yi, Tan Jianci, Yang Yang, Wang Junkai, Wang Yibo, Yi Yangqianxi and others, and even Liu Yaowen, who was not yet a minor in the Times Youth Group, were all nominated. Before that, there were 95 Sheng Yanba, Wang Hedi, Hou Minghao, Wu Lei, and Song Weilong were selected.
As the competition among artists becomes more and more fierce, the involution invisibly accelerates the inflation of appearance. As long as you have the support of fans, you can get the entrance ticket for the appearance vote. In contrast, the gold content of the ancient "four beautiful worlds" seems to be much higher.
Why does the public pay attention to the appearance of actors? With a "prosperous beauty" chasing dreams, the entertainment industry must be invincible? Many cases tell us that the answer is probably not. So how can actors break through the shackles of high-value appearance and find the rules of survival?
The two sides of the same body of "Yanba"
If you want to give a default criterion for the selection of appearance, it is the golden rule of three courts and five eyes, and the proportion of facial features and the face shape are perfectly matched to create a sculptural appearance. In the beauty contest, fans often like to take the face of the main lord and then divide it by line to prove the perfection of their idols.
Aside from the external factors of innate conditions and acquired transformation, there are many reasons behind the appearance of actors who frequently appear in film and television dramas to become social currency. First of all, this is closely related to the Internet age, people's social relationships have been reshaped, and the focus of attention has shifted, thereby amplifying the influence of appearance.
The emergence of new terms such as the era of color appreciation reflects that appearance has become the label of actors to some extent, and is active in the social scene as a circulating currency, meeting the social needs of the public. In fact, as early as the "China Face Value Economic Insight Report" released by Mob Research Institute, it has shown signs that face value is justice, and the data pointed out that nearly 400 million active users at that time were the audience of the face value economy. It means that appearance has become the focus of public attention, and it also lays the groundwork for some artists to create characters to nugget fans and rich mines.
The public pays attention to the appearance of actors, not only out of expression appeal, but also visual needs. Film and television works starring high-value actors can add points to the visual level, and the pleasing viewing experience can enhance the attractiveness. "The face is in the rivers and mountains" plays an effect, highlighting the certain empowerment of some high-value actors to the series. This is the benefit that Shengshi Beauty brings to actors.
Liu Yifei and Chen Xiao's "Menghualu", Yang Yang's "You Are My Glory" and "Try the World" with Di Li Gerba and Zhao Lusi respectively, and Wu Lei's "Long Song Xing" and "Star Han Splendid" cooperated with Di Li Gerba and Zhao Lusi respectively. Most of these different internal entertainment and love are composed of high-value actors to form the starring lineup of popular dramas. And these high-value actors also use the drama to bless their actual performance.
In other words, high appearance can win popularity and popularity for actors, in exchange for more good resources and good opportunities. Especially in the early stages of their debut, it is important to quickly help them gain public recognition. Liu Yifei's title of fairy sister has been worn for nearly twenty years, and the emotional filter is strong. With the role of neurotic female star Gao Wen, Di Li Gerba has a name in the circle and opens up a passage to the advancement of the ranks.
It can be seen that the appearance of an actor can affect the audience's acceptance and evaluation of his performance to some extent. There are two sides of everything, and while actors eat the dividends of appearance, potential risks also accompany them, and there is no shortage of people in trouble.
On the one hand, the public's pursuit of prosperous beauty has boosted the appearance anxiety of actresses caused by the aesthetics of white thin and young, resulting in a narrowing of the possibility of actresses on the screen after the freshness period of their appearance. So when they compromise on the aesthetic trend and go to "dress up", the appearance they once proud of becomes a sniper's shortcoming, making the "undefeated beauty of the years" a paradox.
On the other hand, high appearance is also linked to public opinion. If you are not careful, you will be eaten back by the personality and excessive marketing created by the brokerage company. In addition, the small fresh meat road that is not suitable in the traffic era has a bad popularity, and the artist's appearance usually becomes the tipping point of the rice circle confrontation, and these negative effects related to appearance cannot be ignored.
More importantly, sometimes the high appearance that allows an actor to break through in the casting stage will become a shackle to the long-term development of his career, or even a shackle to be broken. First, the appearance may limit the path of the play, and the actor is easy to be solidified in a certain type of homogeneous role, so that out of the comfort zone, the audience pays a higher cost. For example, idol actors to play realistic themes, there is a certain threshold for acceptance.
Second, actors attract attention with their appearance, which is easy for the audience to ignore their acting skills, and plasticity is weakened. For example, 95 Hua Yan Ba Zhou Ye, who was previously complained about in the main drama, and then won back a game in the ancient puppet drama "Heart Protection", using his acting skills to justify himself. Moreover, high-value actors are also prone to make it difficult to enter the play because the fashion image is too clear. While Yang Mi and Yang Ying were crowned as gods on the red carpet, they also had to face various harsh accusations of their performances.
The double-edged sword of high appearance makes the actors who own it face more pressure and challenges. It is true that appearance can help them open up their career territory to a certain extent, but it is by no means the first competitiveness. Acting skills are the foundation of an actor's life, and the personality charm outside the play can make them go further.
How to break through the shackles?
An era has an era of face benchmarks, and an era also has an era of acting examples. In fact, appearance and acting skills are not a pair of insulators. The public likes to classify actors with mediocre appearance but superb acting skills as powerful, but if they have both appearance and acting skills, then such actors can enjoy the dividends of buff superposition. From Zhang Ziyi and Zhao Liying to Hu Ge, Chen Xiao, Li Xian, Wu Lei, are representatives.
Needless to say, regardless of appearance, acting is the magic weapon that allows actors to get through the trough and create highlights. But the industry and the general environment of the times are also the factors that determine the trajectory of an actor's performance. Especially for high-value actors, the impact of these non-controllable external factors seems to be greater. No one can talk about development out of the times, which also dooms different generations of actors to have different rules of survival.
In 2011, the first generation of "Four Beauty of the World" voted by netizens - Zhong Hanliang, Qiao Zhenyu, Yan Yikuan, Huo Jianhua, and in 2013, the second generation of "Four Beauty of the World" - Ma Tianyu, Zhang Zhiyao, Qiao Renliang, Yuan Hong, although the ancient costumes of these actors have caused an aesthetic boom, but the marks of the times still remain on them.
Except for Zhong Hanliang, who is still acting in ancient puppet and Chinese puppet dramas in 74, the rest of them are almost walking on the edge of the film and television circle, which has become the tears of the times. Chen Kun, Lu Yi, and Huang Xiaoming, who also started with idol dramas in their early years, can make countless girls mesmerized every time they appear on the screen and even a look back and a smile. As these hard currency, beauty helped them quickly harvest fans and open up the market to gain a foothold in the early stage of their debut.
Of course, in addition to outstanding appearance, the path to popularity in high-value is inseparable from the gold medal creator's point stone into gold. At that time, the film and television industry valued ingenuity and polishing, so the high-quality products came out one after another, the time and place were in place, and the appearance became a more critical person than acting skills.
Chen Kun and Lu Yi have starred in the TV series of the famous director Zhao Baogang many times, and their acting skills were not very proficient at that time, but they were made into a template for female perfect lovers in dramas such as "Like Fog Like Rain and Like Wind", "Never Blind" and "Farewell, Vancouver", and became one of the first-line. Huang Xiaoming became famous after starring in a series of costume dramas and Republic of China dramas such as "The Great Han Tianzi", "Huanzhu 3", "The Condor Heroes" and "New on the Beach". Qiong Yao, Jin Yong and other famous IP endorsements, coupled with Gao Xixi, Zhang Jizhong and Li Ping's first-class main creators, helped him advance his career.
Compared with these actors with infinite beauty in the early years, Jin Dong, who also took the beauty route, seems to be less lucky. As a peer student, the latter's performance road was bumpy. It was not until he was nearly 40 years old that he turned over through the two dramas "The Pretender" and "Langya List" in the noon sun, which shows the empowerment of actors by the gold medal team and high-quality film and television dramas. And after years of tempering, he has a more mature male appearance, making Jin Dong a "master killer".
Whether it is relying on appearance to become popular, or turning popular first to be seen in appearance, the career trajectory of post-75 middle students in the pre-traffic era is synchronized with the positive development of the industry, and is supported by excellent works. This also buried a hidden danger, causing this wave of people to be divided today.
People who stay in the comfort zone of idol dramas are shuffled by the market when the back wave hits. Even spit on greasy. And those who are motivated to change always find opportunities to prove their abilities again through new works.
The career peaks and troughs of some high-value actresses are similar to those of the same generation. Li Xiaoran, who also became famous in Zhao Baogang's drama in the early years, has received ordinary responses in Chinese puppet dramas such as "Lin Shen Sees the Deer" and "There Is You in This Life" with Jin Dong and Zhong Hanliang in recent years, but the eldest princess in "Qing Yu Nian" has been well received. It once again proves that actors must have good dramas as the cornerstone, otherwise they will not go far with high appearance.
In contrast, the post-85, post-90s, and post-95 actors who caught up with the east wind of the traffic era have undergone tremendous changes in their living environment, not only because the industry atmosphere has undergone impetuosity to precipitation, the film and television industry chain has been reshaped due to the intervention of video platforms, but also the popularization of aesthetics brought about by the competition of broadcast channels has become difficult to please, and the improvement of national popularity has gradually become difficult.
The post-85s and post-90s peanuts eat the dividends of the traffic era, and the high appearance allows them to provoke the beams of ancient puppet dramas and current puppet dramas, step on the stroke to complete the class leap, and with the help of the barbaric growth of the industry, use big data to accumulate market appeal, and fans are also attracted by the dreams created by these high-value actors.
Yang Mi, Zhao Liying, Yang Ying, Di Lireba, Chen Xiao, Yang Yang, Ren Jialun and others are representatives. They are similar to the polarized situation of the Mesozoic actors, taking the initiative to explore, avoiding the impact of the back wave and the aesthetic fatigue of the audience, and continuing to stand at the head of the tide. For example, Zhao Liying, who chose to attack rural dramas and business war dramas, and Chen Xiao, who starred in period dramas and suspense dramas, all broke the shackles of high-value appearance. And those who have no career support are slowly left behind, and can only stay in variety shows or fall into the quagmire of idol dramas.
It can be seen that at a time when the market in the film and television drama circle is hot and the industry returns to intensive cultivation, the public's tolerance of high-value actors is also decreasing little by little, and the negative public opinion of not being worthy will be ignited if it is not careful. This is equally obvious in the performance of post-95 actors. Wang Hedi and Zhou Ye, whose reputation has reversed, and Wu Lei, who got rid of the curse of child stars, have proved that the audience is now more willing to pay for acting skills, and appearance is only an add-on.
For actors with beauty advantages, it is important to think about how to develop their strengths and avoid their weaknesses. Taking the road of diversified drama is one of the ways out, not limited to a certain type of role, diligent cultivation of professional quality, in order to bring freshness to the audience and gain recognition. In addition, with the rise of emerging entertainment methods, actors' daily business channels have begun to diversify, such as Xiaohongshu, Douyin, and Kuaishou can help them enter the sinking market, gather passers-by, and filter blessings are conducive to the conversion of fans of film and television works.
In addition to using social media platforms to show closeness to the people and break the sense of distance of high appearance, you can also participate in some variety shows to show the charm of personality to circle fans, such as Wang Hedi, Zhou Ye, Zhu Zhu are the beneficiaries, and have been praised by netizens for their "good-looking appearance and interesting soul".
In the final analysis, the aura exuded by the title of "Yanba" also hides a crisis, and how to transform challenges into the power of growth and trigger new opportunities is a topic that actors should think about. After all, in the film and television industry, where content is now king, acting well is more important than looking good.
