In 2018, the movie "Evil Does Not Prevail" starring Peng Yuyan was released, which was also his first work after transforming into a male lead.
However, what made the audience fall through the glasses was that Peng Yuyan's Mandarin in the play was obviously not standard enough, and his accent was relatively heavy, which was incompatible with the atmosphere of the movie's plot.
This directly led to netizens complaining about him: "This Mandarin is unbearable", "The accent is so heavy, it looks so uncomfortable".
Some viewers also joked: "Is this making a martial arts film, or a Lingnan police movie?" For a time, Peng Yuyan's Mandarin issue was frequently searched on the Internet, and public opinion was in an uproar.
As a Hong Kong actor who has been in the mainland market for many years, Peng Yuyan's Mandarin problem directly exposes his shortcomings in language. Previously, he relied on his appearance advantage, but this time he was defeated by the accent problem.
Some industry insiders also pointed out that since this turmoil, mainland directors have realized that Peng Yuyan's Mandarin cannot meet the requirements, and it is difficult to mention making big-budget dramas or movies, which is undoubtedly a heavy blow to Peng Yuyan's acting career.
Just when Peng Yuyan's accent problem did not subside, the Weibo night in 2018 set off another uproar.
In the seating arrangement that night, Peng Yuyan and Li Bingbing originally sat in two rows. However, before the recording of the show began, Peng Yuyan asked the staff to change positions without authorization, and finally sat in the first row and took photos with a group of first-line stars.
This move immediately caused an uproar on the Internet, and a large number of netizens expressed strong condemnation, believing that Peng Yuyan did not respect his predecessor Li Bingbing.
Subsequently, Peng Yuyan's agency issued a statement, saying that the staff at that time took into account the stage effect and suggested that Peng Yuyan change seats, and it was purely unintentional to offend Li Bingbing.
But netizens generally didn't buy it, thinking that it was just an excuse, and Peng Yuyan was obviously trying to seize the front row position. A comment bluntly said: "Who doesn't know that the first row position is for A-list stars, and you also have a little fresh meat?" ”
This incident directly hit Peng Yuyan's image in the eyes of the public, and was regarded as disrespecting his predecessors and industry rules.
After experiencing the accent and the change of seats, Peng Yuyan's impression in the public mind has deteriorated significantly. The popularity accumulated by appearance before plummeted after these two incidents.
In recent years, Peng Yuyan has participated in very few works, which shows that his development prospects in the mainland are worrying.
Industry insiders pointed out that it is not easy to reverse the negative impression of the public, and Peng Yuyan must speak through his works to prove his acting strength, but there are not many opportunities at present.
And his appeal among fans is no longer in its heyday, and now when Peng Yuyan is mentioned, the public's first reaction is "accent" and "disrespect for predecessors", and there is a long way to go to clear up these impressions.
Looking back on Peng Yuyan's development process, from his debut to a smash hit, and then to the decline in popularity, it can be described as a dream. The rapid fading of its influence reflects the undercurrent of the entertainment industry.
In this circle, no artist can maintain his peak state for a long time, public favor is fleeting, and once there is negative news, the fall will be very fast and ruthless.
Peng Yuyan has been reduced from the pride of the sky to a nobody, and at the same time, it also warns those hot entertainment newcomers that today's applause and flowers do not mean that tomorrow will also belong to you.
How to maintain humility and learn from the past is a question that young actors must think about.
For Peng Yuyan himself, a brilliant acting career is about to come to an end. He who has won the peak, whether he can return by strength and regain the favor of the public remains to be tested by time, and we can only bless and not let the past glory become a stumbling block on his way forward.
