If you want to ask which theme is the most influential in domestic dramas? I think there must be urban romance dramas.
As a "big viewer", urban romantic dramas have left unforgettable achievements in the long history of national dramas.
Far away are "Beijing Love Story" and "Why Sheng Xiaomo", and closer are "Love Only" and "Going to a Windy Place". All of them are a double harvest of popularity and word-of-mouth, making people stay in front of the TV every night and wait for updates.
However, the urban romantic drama in 2024 has left the audience a little overwhelmed. First, there was a low-key opening of "Little Days", and finally the popularity hit the street, and then there was a high-profile debut of "Chenghuan Ji", with mixed reputations.
Could it be that domestic urban romance dramas are no longer good, and they can't come up with a good work?
It wasn't until I saw the news of the finalization of this "Miss Match and Mr. Delicious" that I knew that this was stable.
The play will be broadcast exclusively on the whole network of Z TV tomorrow night, and many powerful actors will gather, filling the audience's expectations. After reading all the trailers in one go, I assert that there will be another hit this year!
Noisy and noisy to make food, sweet and sour dessert love
"Miss Match and Mr. Delicious" tells the super foodie Ruan Tang (played by Chen Yihan), who has a unique skill, that is, as long as the food has been eaten, he can perfectly crack the recipe.
Originally, this skill made Ruan Tang popular in the food world, but a food competition broke her peaceful life. And Chen Moyu (played by Chen Xiao), who learned that Ruan Tang had this skill, also came to the door for revenge.
Judging from the content of the story, "Miss Match and Mr. Delicious" is a sweet and earthy urban love drama.
A cute foodie with a stunt and a male god chef with a black belly and a poisonous tongue, one is a foodie who can crack the secret recipe of food after eating, and the other is a kitchen god who can reproduce food after tasting it, the passionate confrontation between these two is simply so sweet that it explodes.
In the trailer, Ruan Tang and Chen Moyu are a pair of happy enemies, Chen Moyu is bent on getting the secret recipe for food, so he does not hesitate to do chores in Ruan Tang's restaurant.
As for Ruan Tang, he decided that Chen Moyu was a bad person, and he just wanted him to retreat and leave quickly.
In the face of Chen Moyu, who was sarcastic about himself, Ruan Tang of course refused to admit defeat and participated in the competition, with the momentum of winning the first championship.
It's really been a long time since I've seen such a sweet and sour urban romance drama, with the taste of classic idol stories, the whole drama doesn't have a strong idol drama filter, it looks refreshing and distinct.
In addition to the sweet love of the two protagonists, there is also a main quest of the male protagonist's revenge in the story waiting for the audience to explore.
It is not difficult to see that every conflict in the play is full of highlights, but the trailer leaves a sense of mystery and does not elaborate more, more of a picture of the dispute is revealed, and cracks appear in the feelings of the male and female protagonists.
Of course, the team of the show is also very good, director Chen Chang's "Love Only" directed last year was out of the circle, with a Douban score of 8.2, and screenwriter Xu Su's "Fire Blue Blade" is still a classic.
These two main creators have joined forces, and the quality of "Miss Match and Mr. Delicious" has stabilized.
However, in fact, the most reassuring thing about this drama is the cast, after all, the success of a drama is inseparable from the blessing of acting skills, and "Miss Match and Mr. Delicious" is also inseparable from the following heavyweights.
Chen Xiao starring, and Chen Yihan has too much CP feeling
The current audience is becoming more and more sober, although the traffic in the film and television drama market is dominant, most audiences pay more attention to the acting strength of the actors. "Miss Match and Mr. Delicious" is very careful in casting, and it can be seen that the director is full of sincerity.
The first place, Chen Xiao.
The powerful Chen Xiao is one of the very few domestic entertainment actors who can complete the transformation from a beautiful man in ancient costume to a realistic theme.
From "Smiling Proud Jianghu", "Menghualu" to "The Road of Life", Chen Xiao has won the recognition of the audience with his excellent acting skills.
In the new drama "Miss Match and Mr. Delicious", Chen Xiao plays the male protagonist Chen Moyu, who is a super chef with low business and a dark belly.
In the trailer, Chen Xiao is dressed in a chef's outfit, looking like a male god himself, facing the Ruan candy he tasted, Chen Moyu cautiously asked about the taste of the dishes, and forgot to put down the soup spoon in his hand, showing the character's inner tension vividly.
I think Chen Xiao's acting skills have entered the ranks of powerful factions, but he has always lacked a role, and he has completely exploded, I hope this is his opportunity.
second place, Chen Yihan.
Chen Yihan's appearance is pure and cute, he laughs like a little sun, and his lively and cheerful personality is very consistent with the character characteristics of Ruan Tang in the new work "Miss Match and Mr. Delicious", it can be said that this role is tailor-made for Chen Yihan.
In the trailer, Ruan Tang played by Chen Yihan has a pair of big eyes and bright eyes, and his sinister tone highlights the arrogance of the character.
There is no need to embellish too much, as long as you stand there, the figure stands directly. I can't wait to see Chen Yihan's performance in the feature film.
third place, Tian Lei.
Tian Lei's acting skills are solid, but he has been tepid. Shi Hongwei in "Big River", Loushanguan in "An Home", Li Shundong in "Breakthrough", Tian Lei's performance is free.
In the new drama, Tian Lei will play the role of Xi Xiaowan, although I don't know what kind of relationship he has with the male protagonist Chen Moyu, but with Tian Lei's strength, it is not a problem to create a plump character image at all.
In addition, Li Mao, Zhou Chuxiao, He Fengtian, Ruan Shengwen and other powerful actors all have excellent performances in "Miss Match and Mr. Delicious", this character group portrait drama is too exciting.
epilogue
Domestic dramas are in a period of drama shortage, don't look at the popularity of dramas such as "City in the City" and "Chenghuan Ji", but it is still far from enough to say that it has reached the craze of chasing dramas on the whole network.
In fact, the subject matter that the audience wants to see is not so complicated, and there is no need for the screenwriters to design all kinds of unbelievable plots, just a simple story, a heart-warming plot, and characters with a great sense of substitution, which can meet all the requirements of the audience.
And these highlights are reflected in this "Miss Match and Mr. Delicious", from the script, team to lineup, there is a level that is not lost to the hit drama, and the sweet interaction between the male and female protagonists in the trailer also makes people laugh.
The audience has been suffering from idol dramas for a long time. The arrival of this "Miss Match and Mr. Delicious" just makes up for the vacancy of urban romantic dramas in the current domestic drama market, and also relieves the audience's hunger.
Now that the show has been finalized, I will meet you tomorrow night, I believe that as long as it is broadcast smoothly, it will not be a problem to become a hit.
