The national drama market in 2024 will be warm and cold at first.
The most popular ones are costume and spy war dramas.
"Walking with the Phoenix" is very popular, which makes people see more possibilities for the theme of ancient costume fairy. And "Wind Chaser" is a popular accident, and the combination of traffic stars + powerful factions has also played a good hand, giving a good start to the spy war drama in 2024.
The upset is the new works of "fried cold rice" from all walks of life.
Unexpectedly, the famous "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" series will collapse in 2024, and dramas such as "Pray for Today" and "See You Again" will be broadcast, allowing the audience to understand more deeply: classics should live in memories, don't remake anymore!
It can be seen that Chinese dramas urgently need a ruthless work that can win the battle of turnaround.
"Spring Lover" is a heavyweight drama taken out by CCTV. As soon as the broadcast started, it won the first place in the national ratings in the prime time, and the ratings approached 2.0, which shows that the popularity is good.
And as the plot gradually deepens, the performance of the actors has also been measured in the hearts of the audience. Today, let's take a look at who is the real acting "ceiling" of this play.
Sixth place, Li Xian (as Chen Maidong)
The male protagonist Chen Maidong played by Li Xian was bullied by his classmates at school because of family changes since he was a child, so he was unruly and always had an unkind indifference.
This character is relatively heavy, and the character design is also very pleasing. handed over to Li Xianlai, who has two urban hit dramas, to play it, which inevitably put the audience at ease.
However, in the new drama, Li Xian's acting skills are not outstanding, mainly because his line skills are not strong enough. In the scene where he appeared to introduce the professional content, Li Xian's lines were drowsy, just like AI reading, without any emotion.
However, as the plot deepened, Li Xian's expressionless performance changed.
Chen Maidong, who got up in the morning, made breakfast for the first time, and in the face of Grandma Chen's teasing of him, Chen Maidong turned his head sideways and smiled shyly, the slightly sunken dimples on his cheeks were almost laughing.
But in the updated scenes so far, Li Xian's overall performance is not eye-catching enough, so it is understandable that his acting skills are at the bottom.
fifth place, Wan Peng (as Wang Xixia)
Wan Peng's popularity is not high, and the few dramas he starred in have not set off too many waves, when I originally learned that she was coming to play the role of Wang Xixia, my first thought was: Can it work?
But after watching the feature film, don't say it, it's really okay.
In the stories of the first few episodes of "Spring Sending Lovers", Wang Xixia did not have many scenes, but every appearance was amazing enough.
With neat short hair, bright eyes and bright teeth, a simple blue sundress that complements her slender figure, and she smiles as cute as the sister next door.
When talking to Zhuang Jie about the current situation of life, talking about the new young people in the company, Wang Xixia spat out, saying that in the face of these energetic young people, he felt that he was simply old.
As he spoke, his brows furrowed, his expression was quite uncomfortable, and his eyes were full of doubt and lack of confidence in himself, showing the discomfort of a young man who had been polished in a big city for many years and was full of passion at first glance.
Fourth place, Zhou Yutong (as Zhuang Jie)
To say that in this drama, the most stable performance of the new generation of actors is definitely Zhou Yutong.
In the new play, Zhou Yutong is a disabled little sun, a big "E person", and her extroverted personality traits cause her to be like a social bandit, no matter who she can talk to.
At the beginning of the new drama, Zhuang Jieren was lying on the hospital bed and was about to undergo minimally invasive surgery, and she communicated with the doctors and nurses she knew along the way, and she didn't let go of those who were far away.
I have to praise Zhou Yutong's line skills for being really strong, and after a scene, it is smooth and natural.
After learning that her stepfather died unexpectedly, Zhuang Jie ran all the way from the company to the station, but finally couldn't resist the panic in her heart, and collapsed and cried on the overpass. His expression was painful, tears kept pouring out, and the whole person was full of great sadness.
Zhou Yutong's crying scene is really too immersive, she just sat there and looked up in pain, and the instantaneous explosiveness of emotions directly infected the audience in front of the screen, and the tension of the characters was enough.
Although it is ranked fourth, it does not mean that Zhou Yutong's acting skills are too poor, but that the actors in front of him are stronger.
Third place, Tian Ling (as Wu Xuehua)
As a powerful Mesozoic generation, Tian Ling has contributed excellent acting skills in many dramas, and in 2023, a "The Wind Blows in the Summer" let the audience see her strong character shaping ability, and when she asked what she met with tears, her emotions instantly infected the audience.
In the new drama, Tian Ling plays the role of women's director Wu Xuehua, who is a loyal and honest character at first glance.
When Grandma Chen asked to solve the marriage problem for Chen Maidong by herself, Zhuang Jie took the initiative to stand up and solve the siege, so that Wu Xuehua couldn't help but show joy, and when she listened to the conversation between Zhuang Jie and Grandma Chen, she also smiled with relief and breathed a sigh of relief.
Facing the little young colleague who was scrambling to go on a blind date with Chen Maidong, Wu Xuehua stretched out his hand again and again to stop it, his face seemed to be shocked and annoyed, his brows were furrowed tightly, and he looked at each other's eyes, as if he had met a girl who had gone astray.
Tian Ling's performance is better than nature, every move carries the vividness of a woman, she doesn't look like she is acting, but like a real person living in this drama, real and vivid.
Second place, Fang Fang (as Grandma Chen)
When I saw Fang Fang appear, my eyes lit up, this old drama bone played Grandma Chen is simply an old naughty boy.
In order to find a suitable marriage partner for her grandson, she forced Wu Xuehua to play table tennis with her, raised her hand and turned back, her eyes were sharp, her expression was fierce, and she seemed to have worked hard.
Facing her grandson who refused to go on a blind date, Grandma Chen frowned and said, "I, an old lady, can I accompany you for a lifetime?"
Grandma Chen, played by Fang Fang, has drawn up how many people's memories of their grandmother? The acting skills are too stable and too real.
First place, Liu Lin (as Liao Tao)
Liu Lin's acting skills are definitely the best in the whole play, she perfectly integrates herself into the role, full of life between joys, sorrows, and gestures.
Facing his daughter's disclosure of his heart to himself and listening to her plan for her future, Liao Tao was moved, pursed his lips tightly to hold back his tears, and slowly turned his head to look at his daughter, his eyes were full of love.
When her husband died, Liao Tao looked at her husband covered with a white cloth with a blank expression, no tears, but she could feel the great heartache in her heart.
obviously doesn't have much expression, but you can still accurately find the emotional changes in the characters' hearts, which is called acting.
Looking for Liu Lin to be the heroine's mother, she found the right person, and her acting skills are undoubtedly the first, and she won hemp.
epilogue
In general, the drama "Spring Sends Lover" is a rare urban romantic drama that can slow down the pace of the plot and concentrate on storytelling.
At present, this new drama has just been updated, and the relationship between Zhuang Jie and Chen Maidong has made a new step of progress, with the death of her stepfather, Zhuang Jie is sad in her heart and has to shoulder the burden of the family at the same time.
There is another fork in the road in front of her, I don't know how she will choose?
And all the actors in the play have gradually entered the role, and they have become more and more natural, I believe that with the further development of the story, "Spring Sending Lover" will bring more surprises to the audience.
