Or to say, CCTV has the national drama "Goldfinger".
In the past two years, as long as it is a drama that CCTV has watched, no matter what genre, no matter how unpopular, it can be a hit.
For example, in the urban life drama, in the national drama market full of bad movies, CCTV was stunned to launch "If Running is My Life", which started the first shot of the year.
There is also the period drama "South to North", which fought a bloody way in the Spring Festival, not only broke 3 in ratings, but also won a high score of 7.2 on Douban.
CCTV always seems to be able to rejuvenate with a clever hand, and some seemingly dull and old-fashioned themes, or difficult bones, can always be played with new tricks by it.
No, after "If Running Is My Life", Yang Ma was not idle, and this time she set her sights on urban romantic dramas. The new drama "Chenghuan Ji" will land on CCTV 8 tonight, and the goose factory will be broadcast simultaneously. After reading all the trailers in one go, I assert that there will be another hit this year!
Noisy and noisy living atmosphere, and a love affair with "family".
"Chenghuan Ji" is adapted from Yishu's novel of the same name, which tells the story of Mai Chenghuan (played by Yang Zi), who was born in an ordinary family, because he was urged to marry by his mother when he was nearly 30 years old, and had to discuss the marriage process with his boyfriend Xin Jialiang (played by Niu Junfeng) in advance, but due to the disparity in economic conditions between the two families, under increasing pressure, the two finally parted ways.
The mother's excessive intervention in life and emotional unhappiness did not defeat Mai Chenghuan, but allowed her to meet her life partner Yao Zhiming (played by Xu Kai) on the journey of developing her career.
Obviously, this is an urban idol drama with a traditional flavor, but in terms of character settings, this drama is not ordinary. Because the male protagonist Yao Zhiming is the grandson of Mai Chenghuan's step-grandmother, this relationship is calculated, and the female protagonist is half of the male protagonist's younger sister. This kind of development is kind of interesting.
At the same time, from the trailer, the audience can feel the warmth between Mai Chenghuan and his family, as well as the nourishment of love to the characters, but even so, life is inevitably full of chicken feathers.
It is not difficult to see that every conflict in the play is very intense, but the trailer leaves a sense of mystery and does not elaborate more, more of a picture of the dispute, the contradiction between mother and daughter and the conflict between the male and female protagonists at work, the prosperous Mai Chenghuan and the mature and stable Yao Zhiming, the life of ordinary people is indeed not so smooth.
And the play wants to reflect thousands of ordinary people from them, who are entangled by their families and bound by feelings, but still keep running for their dreams, because they have not given up on life, insist on working hard, and remain optimistic and cheerful, so life can be as bright as sunshine.
Of course, the team of the play is also very good, co-director Wang Chengxin's masterpiece "Sideburns Are Not Begonia Red" enjoys a good score of 8.0 on Douban, and chief director Tian Yu's "I Don't Want to Be Friends with You" also has a high score of 8.1 on Douban.
The screenwriter is also very important, and the screenwriter of the play, Li Jingling, is also experienced, and she also has masterpieces such as "The Legend of the Swordsman of Shushan War" and "Acquaintance with Jun Chu", at least to ensure that there are no major problems in the logic of the plot.
These main creators join forces, as long as they play steadily, it is not a problem to create a new drama, and everyone is fully committed to watching the behind-the-scenes specials, thinking that "Chenghuan Ji" will definitely shine in domestic urban dramas.
Yang Zi starred, and powerful actors gathered together
An urban romance drama is very particular about casting, after all, CP sense is a kind of metaphysics, and it is not a simple matter to have both appearance and strength, and the sincerity of the new work "Chenghuan Ji" is directly placed on the table.
The first place, He Saifei.
As a national first-class actor, holding the Golden Rooster Best Actress and Hundred Flowers Best Supporting Actress trophies, He Saifei is a well-deserved powerful actor.
In the past two years, He Saifei has not had many works, more supporting roles, and in "The Road of Life", she played Qu Jindi to bring textbook acting skills to the audience, with an aura that can be collected and released, and a strong ability to shape characters.
And in this new drama, the drama bone will be incarnated as a vigorous and resolute heroine mother, facing Yao Zhiming, who wants to arch her own "cabbage", her eyes are sharp, domineering, and she asked lightly: "Do you want to fight Huanhuan's idea?"
Behind the seemingly light words, there is a persecution with scrutiny, such a stern and gentle "tiger mother" can't help but wonder about the moment when He Saifei and Yang Zi played on the same stage.
second place, Yang Zi.
I think as soon as Yang Zi makes a move, the audience can not worry about it at all. As a rare anti-drama talent in domestic entertainment, her appearance and acting skills are seen by the audience, although Yang Zi's appearance is not that kind of high-end beauty, but the more she looks at it, the more pleasing it is, and the more she looks at it, the more interesting it becomes. Last year, only one "Sauvignon Blanc" detonated the costume market, and its strength should not be underestimated.
Judging from the preview, Yang Zi's state is still very full, with a pair of smart eyes that seem to be able to speak, because of the requirements of the emotional explosion scene, Yang Zi also gives a sense of strength and brings the character's emotions to the extreme.
When interacting with the male protagonist Xu Kai, Yang Zi incarnated as a "royal sister" again, in the face of the male protagonist's hesitation, Yang Zi directly broke his head and kissed, his movements were neat, his eyes were firm and smiling, such superb acting skills made it difficult for the audience not to love.
third place, Xu Kai.
Xu Kai has had a lot of dramas in recent years, from "Snow Eagle Lord" to "Praying for the Present Dynasty", his acting skills and appearance have been complained about, and even if he didn't take the lead. However, this time with Yang Zi, I think Xu Kai will make great progress, and he will also realize that his real track is actually an urban drama.
Judging from the trailer, Xu Kai is wearing a suit, the whole person is in good spirits, his face has become handsome, and the whole person is full of elite. But inside is full of bad thoughts, in the face of the "mother-in-law" who praised him, Xu Kai almost laughed, his smug eyes, the corners of his grinning mouth, and he couldn't suppress his happiness through the screen.
Indeed, if you don't improve yourself all the time, you will always go around in costume dramas that are not suitable, and in the end, in the eyes of the audience, you will only find no such person, and you will play with Yang Zi in "Chenghuan Ji", Xu Kai's move is obviously the right one.
In addition, Niu Junfeng, Xu Lingyue, Zhang Yao and other young generation of powerful actors will also play important roles in this new drama, such a strong lineup will definitely achieve the rich group portraits of the new work "Cheng Huan Ji", and I am looking forward to it.
epilogue
All urban dramas say that they want to take the realistic route, but most urban dramas give the audience the feeling that they are unrealistic.
"Cheng Huan Ji" often reminds people of their own lives.
For example, as we get older, we find it more difficult to communicate with our parents, and it is difficult for both of us to empathize with each other. Some seemingly caring gestures are overwhelming.
is like Mai Chenghuan said in the play: "I, Mai Chenghuan, never want to be this doll again."
But even so, the care between the children and their parents is not less at all, and the sincere conversation and open communication between the mother and daughter have eased the tension and begun to understand each other better.
The truest side of human nature is to empathize, when Mai Chenghuan asked his mother: "Mom, have you ever regretted it? Presumably, her own heart is full of pity for her mother.
This time, urban dramas are finally not limited to the bad stalks of fighting the little three scumbags and the big heroine's counterattack.
It's about letting the audience see ourselves.
When a family life drama shows the most authentic side of life, the more people watch it, the more addictive they become. Life is colorful, with happiness and ups and downs. The latter is usually more abundant than the former.
But the experience of life is roughly the same, those ups and downs, that period of family affection, those times that can't be returned. It reminds everyone all the time: the son wants to raise but does not wait, and he must accept the joy in time.
