49-year-old Zhou Xun "overturned"!
To summarize simply, "The Legend of Ruyi", which was broadcast 6 years ago and removed from the shelves 4 years ago, was "whipped", and Zhou Xun became the target of public criticism because of his starring identity and his attempt to "cover his mouth", and was condemned by the whole network.
Today, it seems that Ruyi is indeed unpleasant:
entered the harem, but he delusionally wanted to be a single-minded person for a lifetime, and he couldn't wake up as early as Zhen Huan;
married the emperor, but tried not to fight or rob the white lotus, and secretly sought the throne with different hearts;
was framed by someone, but he pouted and couldn't argue with anything, and he also fell into a handle and had an ambiguous relationship with the guards;
In the end, all of his children died and he died, as if the white land was really clean, how could the audience who chased you for more than 80 episodes feel embarrassed?
Zhou Xun's three sins
The first sin: you should not be forced to pretend to be tender
In the series, Zhou Xun was widely complained about because of Ruyi's appearance as a girl.
In an interview, she responded to this question:
"When did we start to be influenced by stereotypes, as if getting old was a fault. “
Zhou Xun didn't say it right, the "fault" was not getting old, but forcibly pretending to be young.
forcibly pretending to be tender is an overconfidence in oneself and a lack of respect for the audience.
Why does "Shangyang Fu" open high and go low? How many viewers like me chase it to the middle and really can't watch it?
The collective failure of the actors to play tender is one of the reasons.
38-year-old Zhang Ziyi plays a 15-year-old girl, hugging the emperor who is also born in the 70s and shouting "uncle";
66-year-old Zhao Yazhi plays a 35-year-old lady, feeling that she is not a girl's mother, but a grandmother......
The audience looked embarrassed, but the only ones who were not embarrassed were the actors and the director.
In fact, 5 years before "The Legend of Ruyi", 38-year-old Zhou Xun performed Jiu'er in "Red Sorghum", and was praised for being "girly", but only 5 years later, her "girlishness" is gone, why?
Jiu'er dares to love and hate, and her innocent and delicate expression is easy to appear young, while Ruyi's low-key and introverted expression is easy to show maturity.
Some netizens speculated that it may have something to do with Zhou Xun having just finished medical beauty and not fully recovering, otherwise how can it be explained that a pouting mouth is about to "overflow the screen"?
However, the pot of "forcibly pretending to be tender" should not be completely carried by Zhou Xun.
The director is the core character of the series, the actors are selected by him, the makeup is made by him, and he is the main person in charge of the quality of the final product.
In this regard, Zhou Xun is responsible, but not the main responsibility.
The second sin: bullying by Zhou Xun's crew
Around "The Legend of Ruyi", the rumors of bullying by the crew 6 years ago are being dug up in a steady stream-
Huo Jianhua played an angry scene, and his face hurt until his liver hurt and his face was blue, and Xin Zhilei was slapped over and over again, slapped until she doubted her life.
The worst is the villain Li Chun, who jumps on the pond in the winter, and is so cold that he collapses......
But does all this have anything to do with Zhou Xun?
These so-called "bullying" plots are the difficulties emphasized by the actor in an interview to show his dedication, which are related to the plot and have nothing to do with Zhou Xun.
Some netizens were not convinced, saying that Zhou Xun played a big name, changed the script according to his own understanding, and asked the main creators, including the director, to listen to her, which is also a kind of bullying.
First of all, this is chasing after the wind, and hearsay taken out of context is not necessarily the truth.
Secondly, good actors have ideas for roles, and Zhou Xun's ideas are the icing on the cake or the addition of a snake to the role, only director Wang Jun has the most right to speak.
The third sin: man is guilty
Compared with Zhen Huan, what is Ruyi's biggest problem?
Love Brain!
Once, love brain was a compliment, and women with love brain made people feel "innocent and cute", and Zhou Xun himself was like this.
Among the four major flowers of the year, why did Zhou Xun have the best reputation? Isn't it related to her "love brain"? Repeatedly defeated, defeated again and again, Zhou Xun's "brain" for love used to be so "pitiful".
I don't know when it began, "love brain" became a derogatory term. Modern women are no longer proud to devote themselves to love, but to concentrate on their careers.
Netizens believe that the career of a harem woman is "palace fighting".
So, when you enter the harem but still want to be sorry for me, you are stupid; you are in the center of the palace fight but you still have to be "as light as a chrysanthemum", hypocrisy, and you are framed by others but you don't retaliate ruthlessly, it's not happy!
What kind of person will have such a persona?
It must be a person with a superior background and a high level, and only they are qualified to be "as light as a chrysanthemum".
Most netizens do not have this qualification. Therefore, the more "light" Ruyi is, the more the audience "hates" her.
Because people are guilty, Zhou Xun, who took over this role, is even guilty.
And because Zhou Xun herself has a little "light" in her life, it confirms her "sin" even more.
Zhang Ziyi's trick
The former four big flowers, now still active on the big and small screens, only Zhou Xun and Zhang Ziyi.
Zhao Dayan, I can't find this person, Xu Jinglei, because of the involvement of an artist surnamed Wu, has almost faded out of people's sight.
Zhang Ziyi, "Splashing Ink Gate" plus "Fraudulent Donation Door" and "Beach Gate", almost disappeared from the entertainment industry.
Only Zhou Xun has not been "robbed" before "Ruyimen".
But if a person is used to smooth sailing, shouldn't he suffer a "little disaster"?
"Small robbery and great luck", Zhang Ziyi can understand it best, she did 3 things right.
The first thing is to talk about a love that is favored by others
In Zhang Ziyi's love history, the most favored is the section with Sa Beining.
One is the "International Chapter" of the entertainment industry, and the other is a CCTV talent who graduated from Peking University, and he is talented and beautiful.
Sa Beining's image at that time was very good, and he was recognized as the "fifth diamond king", and Zhang Ziyi, who was in a trough, was with him, and he could wash off a little bit of the "wind and dust" smell on his body, which added a lot of points.
Unfortunately, the two broke up soon after. Among many reasons, Zhang Ziyi, who turned over, no longer needs him as a "stepping stone", and he is also one of them.
Zhou Xun happens to be single now, if she can have a clapping love in time, everyone will naturally bless her and forget to denounce her.
The second piece is to come up with a heavyweight work
When Zhang Ziyi was at a deep trough, Wong Kar-wai extended an olive branch to her and invited her to star in "The Grandmaster".
Zhang Ziyi, who was holding her breath, understood the importance of this role, and she worked very the shooting scene, so she fell into a back injury.
Sure enough, Zhang Ziyi won a total of 12 actress awards for the role of Gong Eryi, and it is impossible to determine who will come later, but it must be unprecedented, and it has established her reputation as a powerful actor.
Those "splashing ink doors" or something, overshadowed in front of these twelve actress awards, no one mentioned it again.
From this point of view, if Zhou Xun then comes up with a work comparable to "The Grandmaster", then the trivial matter of "Ruyimen" will disappear immediately.
The third thing, no longer "cover your mouth"
In fact, the development of "Ruyimen" to the current situation is related to Zhou Xun's team's attempt to "cover their mouths".
In today's entertainment industry, celebrities no longer look like they are on top, netizens see that you are not going well, and you can set off a "god-destroying" movement in minutes.
In the first season of "Sister Lang", how much Wan Qian was loved at the beginning, netizens regarded her as the "God of Sister Lang", but once her "light as a chrysanthemum" character was punctured, this "god" was quickly abandoned.
A little earlier, Chen Kaige's "Wuji" was scolded, and netizen Hu Ge made a short film "A Bloody Case Caused by a Steamed Bun" to ridicule it, and Chen Kaige went to the battle, trying to control public opinion by "covering his mouth".
Netizens are not used to him, not a single Hu Ge has arrived, thousands of Hu Ge have stood up, and Chen Kaige has become a clown.
If Zhou Xun really did something wrong in "Ruyimen", it should not end up "covering his mouth".
Zhang Ziyi was scolded so badly back then, and she didn't come out to defend herself. When the crowd is angry, it is useless to justify, and it may become darker and darker.
Therefore, if Zhou Xun no longer justifies and no longer "covers her mouth", the turmoil will soon pass; if she talks about a wonderful love and launches another heavyweight masterpiece, public opinion will immediately flip.
Only by working hard and moving forward can we defeat the crowd.
