The popular "City in the City" on CCTV became a popular dark horse as soon as it was launched, not only the ratings have soared, but the plot in the play has attracted many netizens to enter the pit.
However, if a good drama wants to become a hit, it must be able to handle all aspects, but "City in the City" is far from a full score hit, but it loses in the shaping power of the actors.
Today, let's take stock of the crying scene rankings of different actors in "City within a City". In terms of the shaping power and empathy of crying scenes, "City in the City" happened to step on the thunder point that the protagonist is not as good as the supporting role.
First place Chen Jin plays Teacher Ouyang
Teacher Ouyang in the play is Dai Xing's wife, and Dai Xing died of a heart attack within a few minutes of going online because of a heart attack, and he was in a car accident while driving.
Overnight, Ms. Ouyang lost her husband, and her deceased husband was also facing an audit investigation by his superiors. When Teacher Ouyang saw the corpse covered with a white cloth, Chen Jin, who played Teacher Ouyang, did not cry, did not howl, her legs were weak, her face was pale, compared to despair and pain, the emotions portrayed by the actor at this moment were more unbelievable and unacceptable.
When emotions surged up, and the body was more real than tears, Chen Jin collapsed, fainted, and when he opened his eyes again, he was already lying on the hospital bed, as if he had been drained of his soul's torso. At this moment, Chen Jin just started to act in a crying scene, her stumbling tears slipped silently, and her eyes that couldn't be opened were full of sadness.
It wasn't until the auditors came to the door that she stood up strongly, with an indifferent face, but the corners of her eyes were full of cold marks.
The real heartache is not yelling, the crying scene performed by Chen Jin is more in line with Mr. Ouyang's calm character design, and it can also highlight the heavy blow to the character's heart by her husband's death. This kind of slowly increasing emotion is much more advanced than howling when you come up.
Second place Yu Hewei plays Zhao Hui
The character of Zhao Hui can definitely be said to be the soul of "A City in the City", and many viewers clicked on this drama and decided to chase it down, all because of Yu Hewei. The Zhao Hui he portrayed was still very principled and bottom-line when he appeared, but in the beauty plan and economic difficulties, as well as the pig-killing plate laid by the big brother, he still embarked on the road of corruption.
And the scene that really made the audience empathize and understand the role of Zhao Hui was Yu Hewei's drunken crying scene.
In this scene, Zhao Hui admitted that Zhou Lin, who looked almost exactly the same as his wife, at this moment, Yu Hewei's eyes were full of tears, the tears in his eyes were as aggrieved as a child, he held the actress's hand, and said hesitantly, "Li Ying, Rui Rui is sick, our daughter is sick...... Our house can't be saved."
At this second, Zhao Hui, who was full of successful people in the bank in a suit and leather shoes, became a child who was crushed by emotions, he missed his deceased wife, and he overflowed with guilt for his daughter.
It's hard to believe that the audience will begin to empathize with the pain of a villain because of this crying scene, and this is the crying strength of a powerful actor.
Third place: Yang Yuting as Bai Yu
Speaking of Yang Yuting, many people will feel unfamiliar, but when it comes to Yang Yuting's husband Fang Bin, I believe many viewers are familiar with it.
It's a pity that House Bin is a powerful actor recognized by the audience, but Yang Yuting, as House Bin's wife, has not been influenced by him at all.
In the play, Bai Yu's interpretation by Yang Yuting has a bunch of bad things, she is depressed after giving birth, her work is not smooth, and her life is very difficult.
It is normal for such a character to collapse and cry, and it is easy to arouse the audience's sympathy, but Yang Yuting's crying scene focuses on a ghost crying wolf, her face is hideous, the face in front of the camera is so exaggerated that her facial features are flying wildly, and there are all kinds of swollen and uneven silicone sensations on her face, and the moment she cries to the ground really has a sense of immediacy of a bitter love scene 20 years ago.
I have only seen this level of crying scenes in ancient puppet dramas and old-fashioned Qiong Yao dramas.
Fourth place Xia Meng plays Tian Xiaohui
The role of Tian Xiaohui itself is not likable in "A City in the City", and the actor Xia Meng, whose acting skills are young, too young, and have little acting experience, is even more difficult to meet powerful actors like Yu Hewei and Wang Xiao.
In daily dramas, she relied on a childish face to shape the setting of youth, and there was always a feeling of "fake innocence" in the expression she revealed, and as for the crying scenes that need to be shaped with emotion and explosiveness, she performed even worse.
In the plot, Tian Xiaohui was fired from the plot because she made a mistake at work because she believed her cousin's words, and finally got a decent job.
The moment she walked out of the company, Tian Xiaohui couldn't hold back anymore and cried directly. But actor Xia Meng's crying method is too blunt, his mouth is grinning, his brows are wrinkled, and there is a big embarrassment written on his face, not to mention that he doesn't look good, and he cries very fakely.
Fifth place Bai Yufan as Tao Wuji
As the starring role in "A City in the City", Bai Yufan should have been the highlight role in this drama. But a few days after the launch of this drama, only Yu Hewei was attracting the audience, Bai Yufan's appearance was not good, his character was not attractive enough, and even his acting skills began to lag behind.
After Dai Xing's death, the simple-minded Tao Wuji always felt that the coldness and ruthlessness of the system were killing his enthusiasm for work, and he retorted indignantly in front of his girlfriend because Dai Xing was suspected of not being worthy, "Everyone has to find some stains to be satisfied."
This scene is actually Tao Wuji, a rookie in the workplace, the first time he has seen the coldness of the rules of the system, and the state he showed should be a heavy blow to the three views, disappointed and helpless, but looking at Bai Yufan's crying scene again, it is right to have tears in his eyes, but his eyes are godless, and there is a kind of stiffness that can't cry.
In this scene, the audience couldn't feel Tao Wuji's young, immature, simple-minded and even stubborn personality, but began to wonder if Tao Wuji's lacrimal glands were too dull, and it was time to get through the lacrimal glands.
Of course, the ranking of the crying scene does not represent the acting ranking of the drama "City in the City", because some of the worse acting skills, such as Lonnie, have no emotional scenes so far, but it is certain that through the three, six, nine, etc. of the crying scene, the acting power of the actor himself can be basically determined.
Like actors Yang Yuting, Xia Meng, and Bai Yufan, not only is the crying scene bad, but every second of their play makes the audience want to hurry up.
It's a pity that Xia Meng and Bai Yufan are the heroines and the male protagonists, and the two actors who should not have poor acting skills are the actors at the bottom of the crying scene in the play. I can't imagine what "City in the City" would have been like without Yu Hewei's hard support.
