Preface
Recently, another spy war drama "Thrush" was launched, and after only a few episodes, the audience couldn't stand the intelligence reduction plot of forced love and the protagonists with silicone faces.
Looking back at the TV dramas in recent years, whether they are from heaven or to the world, modern or ancient, they can only be regarded as idol dramas, and everything is mainly in love.
When everyone is insulting this phenomenon, they forget that all this is the result of the aesthetic tendency of the market.
At the beginning, Yang Zi devoted herself to studying acting skills and spent her time to participate in a "Battle of Changsha", which was highly praised, but her popularity and popularity were miserable, so that in order to get ahead, she could only star in idol dramas with plastic surgery.
Is the prospect of the drama really as dark as Yang Zi expected?
There is a lot of controversy in the transformation of idol dramas!
Speaking of famous child stars, Yang Zi must definitely be counted as one, and she is also a rare one who has not disappeared after everyone has grown up.
Along the way, she has not been smooth, and she was even once concluded by Song Dandan that she was "bound to lose", thinking that she was not beautiful enough to go far on the road of being an actor.
But in fact, acting mainly depends on acting skills, and appearance is secondary, especially for actors in dramas.
The original Yang Zi also thought so, but after all, he couldn't ignore Song Dandan's words, and finally transformed into an idol drama after many attempts.
Since the age of 7, Yang Zi has been a young actor in the crew, and has been the queen actor of Ran Dongyang in Yang Hongying's campus series.
The wonderful interpretation of the role of Xia Xue in "Family with Children" made Yang Zi famous in one fell swoop and became a national girl.
Then when the third part of this drama was filmed, Yang Zi made a decision that surprised everyone, that is, to suspend filming and concentrate on preparing for the college entrance examination.
This decision requires a lot of courage, you must know that Yang Zi at that time could continue to walk in the entertainment industry with her acting skills and resources, even if she did not have the blessing of academic qualifications, no one would look down on her.
She can also choose to work and study part-time, and enter the school of her choice through special recruitment.
But she didn't, she just chose the experience path that an ordinary high school junior should have, calmed down, and prepared for the exam seriously.
Because of the filming of "Family with Children", Yang Zi had a good relationship with Song Dandan at that time, and she was always taken care of by her and respected her very much.
So when choosing a school in the college entrance examination, Yang Zi specially asked Song Dandan's opinion.
It was at this time that Song Dandan said the words that made Yang Zi entangled for many years and felt inferior:
"You're not fit to be an actor, you're not good-looking enough. ”
This sentence has been haunting Yang Zi's heart, making her constantly ask herself if it is really inappropriate?
She applied for the acting major of Beijing Film Academy with doubts and confusion, and also participated in the filming of some movies and TV series during college, such as "Happiness Knocks on the Door", "Flowers Are Not Flowers and Fog", etc., and slowly took off the restraints of her child star.
Yang Zi's most successful drama during college was the war film "Battle of Changsha", which was widely praised as soon as it was broadcast, and became the highest-rated mainland TV series on Douban's annual list.
But this drama also had limitations at the time, so that everyone knew that it was a good drama, but few people watched it, and it did not reach the level of being out of the circle.
For most passers-by, they didn't know that Yang Zi had filmed such a TV series, and it was difficult to give her that overwhelming feedback.
After "Battle of Changsha", Yang Zi filmed several drama-oriented film and television works one after another, and her acting skills were as good as ever, but she gained little.
She couldn't help but think, is it really as Song Dandan said, without good looks, no matter how good the acting skills are, it is useless?
After thinking about it again and again, she decided to transform to prove herself, no longer acting in dramas, but plastic surgery to appear in idol dramas.
For her decision, countless fans expressed incomprehension and didn't know whether to support it, but many people encouraged her to take on more scripts like this at the most appropriate age.
From what is the fire to the gradual loss of popularity?
For Yang Zi, "Fragrant Honey Sinks Like Frost" is a very special idol drama, and it is her first phenomenal work out of the circle.
Although the film and television dramas she filmed before have won her many awards, and there are also works with high traffic similar to "Ode to Joy" and "Qingyunzhi", none of them have reached the point of "Fragrant Honey Sinks Like Frost".
This drama is quite twisted just by looking at the plot, but Yang Zi used her acting skills to prop it up, and successfully made the audience ignore all the unreasonable settings.
In this drama, Yang Zi's crying scene is quite infectious, compared with idol dramas in the same period, it can be said to be a dimensionality reduction blow.
This drama not only made her popular again, but also successfully brought fire to Deng Lun, who played the first male, and Luo Yunxi, who played the second male.
Immediately after Yang Zi made persistent efforts, the modern idol drama "Dear Love" broke the circle again, and Li Xian's popularity as the male protagonist also rose sharply, and the "current boyfriend" reached the peak of his career.
That is, since this drama, the industry has circulated the physique of Yang Ziwang's male protagonist.
For a while, all the crews extended an olive branch to Yang Zi, hoping to use her popularity to make the male star they wanted to become popular.
However, there are always ups and downs in everything, and metaphysics is always unreliable.
In recent years, Yang Zi's idol drama road can be said to be quite difficult, especially the "Green Hairpin Xing", which was originally with Wu, was cut in half because of Wu's indiscretion.
"Please Advise for the Rest of Your Life" has also been postponed, and "Female Psychologist" has frequently canceled its launch plan because of the accident of the supporting role.
These three dramas have caused Yang Zi to have not announced a new drama for a long time, and it is better to be hidden than to be hidden in the snow, and in the eyes of passers-by, it is like she suddenly disappeared.
Although the problems of the three dramas have nothing to do with Yang Zi himself, no one shouted that Yang Zi can be a good actor, and public opinion began to turn again.
Maybe it was the big ups and downs that were too fast, so that Yang Zi could see many things clearly at once.
Break out of the cocoon into a butterfly, and the road ahead is no longer confused!
Yang Zi was no longer entangled in Song Dandan's words, she suddenly realized that the so-called circle-breaking popularity was nothing more than that, fame, fortune and wealth were like a passing glance, and they came and went quickly.
She finally remembered her original intention, which was to become a real actor and star in good works.
After that, Yang Zi was more cautious in picking scripts, she did not leave the idol drama market, and this year's "Sauvignon Blanc" is still worth watching.
But she no longer resists starring in dramas and challenges her acting skills, the movies "Silent Witness", "Me and My Hometown" and so on are enough to prove that she is a powerful actor, not one of those little flowers with empty appearances.
On a variety show, Song Dandan took the initiative to mention what he had said for the first time, and said that he was very sorry for Yang Zi, if Yang Zi hadn't insisted enough at that time, there might not be a popular future.
Regarding Song Dandan's belated apology, Yang Zi only smiled, because now she is no longer entangled in this matter.
At Tencent's "Starlight Awards" in Macau, Yang Zi wore an eye-catching butterfly dress and walked confidently and calmly on the red carpet.
Now there is no inferiority complex and confusion on her face, and all that is left is the pride of breaking out of the cocoon into a butterfly.
epilogue
For Yang Zi, everyone always has an extra tolerance, and even if they don't understand all her decisions, they won't be too opposed.
This national girl did not live up to everyone's expectations too much, no matter which track she was serious and worked hard to do her best, and there was no outrageous black material after her debut for many years.
It's a pity that being too popular is not necessarily a good thing, her fans are extremely combative, and sometimes it will cause discomfort to passers-by.
I hope that Yang Zi can not forget her original intention, whether it is a drama or an idol drama, acting with heart and presenting the best works to everyone is the most important thing.
