The first year of the supporting role, this time it was the turn of Chang Huasen, who was born in 97?
On the evening of the 18th, "Yi Nian Guan Mountain" ended on a super point. The TV series that has dominated the list for more than half a month once again dominated the Weibo hot search list as desired, and the audience's voices are mainly concentrated in two aspects: one is the dissatisfaction with the protagonist's annihilation, "crazy drama", "all dead", and "collapsed people" have become hot search keywords, and the Douban score of the show has also dropped from 7.5 points at the beginning of the broadcast to 6.8 points.
The second is the attention to the character Li Tongguang and his actor Chang Huasen in the play. Yesterday morning, #常华森 The first star of domestic entertainment to talk about high mathematics live## Li Tongguang found that the second child is his sister # # Chang Huasen College Entrance Examination 610# and other topics have been at the top of the entertainment hot search list.
According to data from another think tank Xingtu, although the number of fans has not increased as much as the starring Liu Yuning in the past two weeks, Chang Huasen can be regarded as a successful breakthrough among the leading actors in a number of hit dramas, with more than 200,000 fans. On Station B and Douyin, Li Tongguang's second-creation videos also maintained a good number of views and likes. What's more, in the Weibo Chaohua community, the number of posting interactions of Xinguang CP far exceeds that of other CPs in the same drama, and even jumped to the TOP1 in the drama derivative area for a time.
Although the real-time Weibo topic on the closing day seems to be "equal" with the topic of the series, there is a big gap in the number of readers. On the official shake, although the number of likes on Li Tongguang's related videos also remained at a high level in the same drama, most of the videos with a high degree of popularity (more than one million likes) revolve around Ren Ruyi and Yang Ying. In Detaven's data, the contribution of the male and female protagonists of the TV series is steadily leading, and the number of supporting roles Yang Ying and Yu 13 on the list is significantly higher.
In short, Li Tongguang and his actor Chang Huasen may indeed have gained a wave of attention recently, but the market's attention to him is mainly focused on the CP line, and has not yet been completely transformed into his own fan group. and the representative figures Gao Ye, Chen Duling, Wei Daxun, etc., who are on the table this year, are not on the same level.
However, from the market level, there are still many questions worth exploring: for example, why does this audience like the supporting roles of "crazy criticism" so steadily?
"Crazy criticism" Li Tongguang's CP stewed in a mess, can Chang Huasen be "on the table"?
This year's film and television dramas are mass-producing "crazy criticism", and this time the audience is also steadily falling in love with the "crazy criticism" role. From Gao Qisheng in "Hurricane" at the beginning of the year, to Yutai Ember and Ye Bingsheng in "Long Moon Embers", Xiang Liu in "Sauvignon Blanc" to Xie Wei in "Ning An Like a Dream", all of them are like this. From this dimension, Li Tongguang can be regarded as a "tailor-made" role for the audience: the buffs are stacked, and the characteristics that the audience loves to watch are gathered.
On the one hand, the characters have their own aura of "beauty, strength and misery", and their personalities are complex and multifaceted. As soon as he appeared, he was a young general who captured the monarch of another country on the battlefield, and in the face of a beating by his own monarch, he also knew how to use the youthful temper tantrum to give the other party the desired result, and the image of a young man with force, intelligence, and forbearance jumped on the screen. And the princess's son, the experience of suffering as a child, also gives her gloomy and distorted character a reasonable source.
On the other hand, a number of CP lines are stewed in a mess, opening up different sides of the characters' personalities in an extreme way: switching between "crazy for love" and "creating everyone equally". What's more, the four CP lines arranged for him in the play can be said to have collected all the points that netizens love to knock:
and Ren Ruyi's master-apprentice love carried the CP banner of the show. In the face of Ren Ruyi, Li Tongguang's signature actions are kneeling, hugging his thighs, and crying, coupled with the distorted possessiveness and self-PUA spirit that occurs from time to time, and he is a crazy batch of affectionate little wolf dogs. Although it is not like other master-apprentice relationships that always hang a sense of taboo and a sense of betrayal in the lines, the forbearance and fatalistic involvement between the two are also the points where countless viewers enter the pit vertically.
and Yang Ying's "senior brother" CP, experienced the magical drama of "junior brother and sister and aunt and princess and wife", and also brought famous scenes such as senior brothers eating jujube emojis, "He is the precious legacy left by the master", and finally the small details of the interaction between the two in Hexian County after marriage left enough imagination for the audience. In addition, the marriage contract with Chu Yue has made countless viewers dream of "marriage first and love later", and the interaction between the barbaric county lord and the poisonous tongue young general also has a feeling of joy and hatred;
Compared with the official CP, which focuses on emotional stability and constantly brings out the atmosphere of "you know me", each group of Li Tongguang's CPs is obviously more able to fill the plot tension, so that the audience can feel the conflict and attractiveness.
But it's not enough to have a sense of character design and CP candy, which is also the key to why Li Tongguang's role failed to explode despite a small fire: First, although the audience prefers crazy characters, this is not a panacea, it also needs the integrity of the characters and the self-consistency of logic.
Li Tongguang is precisely lacking in these two. For example, in the finale, the long-famous young general made frequent mistakes on the battlefield guarding Hexian, so that Deng Hui, Ning Yuanzhou and others died successively to save themselves, and the character collapsed;
Second, crazy criticism of roles often tests the acting skills of actors, and it is necessary to accurately present the state of the role. At present, most of the audience feedback said that although Chang Huasen's performance is not a play, it is still a little green, and even the emotional transmission of the characters mainly relies on voice actors. In fact, the more "crazy roles" of supporting roles, the more actors are required to make every appearance an effective appearance.
In fact, it is not so much that the supporting characters are "stable" on the table, but that the audience is tired of those stereotyped characters, when the reality is becoming more and more "depressing" and everyone lives in their own rules and regulations, they also hope to find a little bit of "coolness" in these people who are perverse and reckless and crazy in their hearts, even if he may be dark and crawling and not fully in line with positive values.
Back to reality, Li Tongguang's character "ceiling" actually determines the degree of blessing he can bring to Chang Huasen. For example, Detaven data shows that the recent hot words of public opinion around Chang Huasen mainly include sick and delicate, good-looking, apprentice, personality, etc. At the same time, data shows that with the advancement of the plot, Chang Huasen has also gained more attention from women aged 30-40, and the overall user proportion is dominated by women aged 18-40.
However, this is already a crucial step for the teenagers who were previously unknown in the film and television drama market. Although his acting skills still need to be improved, he is at least being seen: just like many people have noticed his science and engineering hegemony during the "factory flower" period of "Youth with You", of course, this point has also sparked discussion again in his live broadcast of more than 3 million fans.
For the current Chang Huasen, with the end of the series, how to stabilize Li Tongguang's fans is the key. Countless cases of overturning in the entertainment industry tell us: Although holding high the banner of CP and the character of a scholar are all powerful weapons for fans, they are also very easy to backlash, and personality charm and acting strength are the real hardcore existence.
The supporting role is easy to fire, but the big heroine is getting more and more difficult to stand up?
The emotional backlash of "Yi Nian Guan Mountain" is not all due to the "grave and grave" of the finale, there are actually early signs in the middle section, and the main reason is that it is difficult for the big hostess to "stand up".
Objectively speaking, Ren Ruyi's setting is a major feature of this year's costume dramas: it does not focus on growing characters, but focuses on people who come down from "heights", with its own story, and this setting does win at the starting line. As soon as the heroine appears, it is the ceiling of force and intelligence, and the coolness and ignition are doubled. But this also means that it is more difficult to maintain the stability of the character's core. Compared with the growing heroine, she is also more likely to collapse her personality.
This point finally broke out in the emotional line of the official CP. If the series of operations in the early stage where the heroine only wants a child is still ridiculous, then the two after falling in love are ubiquitous "greasy", holding hands, kissing scenes, and even sharing famous scenes, and the TV series is not stingy with various atmospheres to highlight the feeling of "only you understand me".
The sugar is delivered to the mouth, but in addition to the audience's "no CP sense", the rebellious psychology brought by the emotional line also lies in its imbalance in proportion. The most typical, taking the assassination of the eldest prince of Anguo and the second prince as an example, it was originally a very interesting and strategic part, but the TV series quickly skipped it in the form of subtitles and transitions, and instead gave the scene to Ren Ruyi and Ning Yuanzhou's chat. The audience's rebellious mood was also stimulated in the reversal of "as if watching a trailer" and "chatting".
With such an operation, it is no wonder that netizens are gradually immune to love, and even regard it as the most important reason for the "big heroine" to reduce intelligence. If you remove Ning Yuanzhou's Qingqing and me, the portrayal of Ren Ruyi in the TV series is relatively clear: first, the force value that is always online, there are many famous scenes in the play where one enemy is one against a hundred, especially the scene where Emperor An is held hostage to liberate Zhu Yiwei at the end is a classic.
Second, the values of the characters are also growing. From a lone wolf to a lone wolf who is willing to do something for Zhu Yiwei's woman, it is a change in her vision; from following the queen's last words as a guideline, to seeing through the values of the mother attached to her husband and children, believing that she can actually live happily by relying on herself.
Third, she always has her own main mission: to find the truth about killing the queen and avenge it, which also includes an examination of Zhu Yiwei's system. However, in the whole story, her main line progress is attached to the male protagonist, helping the male protagonist to train the little princess who dresses as a man, and even the famous scene of the liberation of Zhu Yiwei in Miyagi also has the purpose of delaying time for the male protagonist.
However, this is not a typical big heroine narrative. Especially in the protection of Hexian County at the end of the story, whether it is in the face of the civil strife between Anwu and Wu, or the fighting on the battlefield, she appears as Ning Yuanzhou's "subsidiary". Even the narration of the characters left behind by the final assassination is "dying for love", leaving the audience to argue between "martyrdom" and "martyrdom".
As a big heroine story, Ren Ruyi's appearance can be regarded as an innovation in the creation of domestic dramas, but it quickly fell into the most common routine and became a pity. This feeling is also reflected in another high-profile female character in the play: Yang Ying.
grew from a cowardly white rabbit to a king of rites who can face the monarchs of other countries, and the famous scene of picking out his daughter as his own plan in the later period exceeded one million likes on Douyin, but in the end, such a woman can only choose to become a bargaining chip in the alliance between the two countries, respect her husband like a guest, and have no greater political ambitions. inexplicably weakened the charm of the first love in the early stage and dared to let Ning Yuanzhou "abandon" Emperor Wu, and the "growth of the empress" expected by the audience finally failed.
One is the big heroine in the master area, and the other is the growth of the big heroine in the novice village, and they were questioned in the middle and late stages, obviously: not all of them are caused by love. In fact, it represents the problem faced by domestic dramas in the creation: limited innovation. talked about feminism and women's independence, but unconsciously pulled them back into the box, not daring to touch the wider world.
In any case, this winter, "Yi Nian Guan Mountain" still left many traces that are unique to it: about the actors, about the characters, and about how to tell a good story.
