Zhang Weijian, an actor with an important position in the Chinese film and television industry, has attracted attention for his outstanding performances in early classics.
However, in recent years, his acting skills in film and television dramas have caused widespread controversy. From classic works such as "Clever Little Don't Understand" and "New Chu Liuxiang" to the later "Little Fish and Flowers", "Xiaobao and Kangxi", Zhang Weijian has always attracted the attention of the audience with his unique acting style. However, his recent performances that are too funny in some works have caused netizens to complain, and some people even question whether his acting skills are stagnant.
First of all, looking back on Zhang Weijian's early classic works, I have to mention his wonderful performance in "Clever Little Don't Understand".
This drama has become a classic, and Zhang Weijian's character creation and performance in it are first-class. The witty and smart little ignorance that the audience is familiar with is Zhang Weijian's superb acting skills that are vividly presented in front of the audience. Similarly, his appearance in "New Chu Liuxiang" is also deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, successfully presenting the classic characters in the novel, laying the foundation for the success of film and television dramas.
However, as time went by, Zhang Weijian's acting skills seemed to go the other way.
In recent years, although his masterpieces such as "Little Fish and Flowers" and "Xiaobao and Kangxi" have shown his versatility to some extent, audiences have begun to find that his performances are gradually inclined to be funny and somewhat exaggerated. Especially in the guest appearance of "Smiling Proud Jianghu" and starring in "Heroes of the Sui and Tang Dynasties" and other works, his performance style has caused the audience to cry and laugh. Perhaps influenced by the comedy route, Zhang Weijian's acting skills seem to have fallen into a grotesque cycle, which makes the audience's expectations and evaluations of him divided.
Although Zhang Weijian created many classic roles in the early days, his acting skills in recent years may have been somewhat limited.
The audience began to question whether he was serious enough about each character and whether he ignored the depth and connotation of the character in his pursuit of laughter. In some productions, his performances seem to cater more to the laughter of the audience than to really go deep into the hearts of the characters, which makes his acting acting seem unrealistic to some.
Perhaps, this is also a dilemma that many actors will face in their careers, that is, how to maintain their own style while constantly challenging new levels of performance.
Mr. Zhang may be in an awkward position, and his success in comedy has made it difficult for audiences to accept his performance in other types of dramas. It also reminds actors to be more careful when choosing their works, not only considering the fun of the work, but also the depth and emotional expression of the characters.
However, we can't deny Zhang Weijian's success in the field of comedy. His funny style has shaped his unique acting image to a certain extent, which has left a deep impression on the hearts of the audience. Because of this, he can achieve a good reputation in works such as "Xiaobao and Kangxi".
As a special form of performance, comedy requires actors not only to have enough funny talent, but also to capture the audience's laughter in the performance, which is exactly what Zhang Weijian is good at.
On the other hand, the audience's controversy over Zhang Weijian's acting skills also reflects the audience's changing expectations and requirements for actors. Actors are no longer just funny with smiles, and the audience wants to see actors show more comprehensive acting skills in different types of plots. This also means that actors need to continue to learn and Xi grow, not be bound by past successes, but dare to try different types of roles and challenge their own performance limits.
In general, as a veteran actor, Zhang Weijian's acting career may have experienced twists and turns, but his success in the field of comedy cannot be ignored. The audience has controversy about his acting skills, which is also a reflection of his increased expectations and the diversity of actors' roles. For Zhang Weijian, it may be time to re-examine his acting career, challenge new fields, and respond to the audience's expectations with more mature and diversified acting skills.
