It's been a long time since I've watched a decent costume business war drama.
In the national drama market, costume business war dramas have always been a special existence.
Needless to say, classics such as "Mansion Gate" and "Qiao's Courtyard", and the later "Qing Salt Merchant" and "The Year the Flowers Bloomed and the Moon Was Full" also had word-of-mouth ratings.
However, in recent years, the themes of costume fairies and costume detectives have become popular, and there have been fewer and fewer costume business war dramas, which have gradually faded out of the audience's sight.
It's been a long time since I've seen a costume drama with real historical charm, but fortunately, the goose factory made a move.
"Big Businessman" officially started on April 15, with a strong team and a strong lineup, if you want to ask which drama is expected to be a big hit, just watch this new drama!
Adapted from Zhao Zhiyu's novel of the same name, the original world view is grand, which can be called a milestone work of Chinese political and business novels, and the author Zhao Zhiyu is even more knowledgeable, to say that the novelist who best understands the political and business relations of the Qing Dynasty, Zhao Zhiyu is definitely among the best.
"The Big Businessman", the most popular novel, was adapted into a TV series, which can be said to be full of highlights, but such a drama with connotation and depth, I sweated for the male protagonist Chen Xiao.
Return to the historical drama, the Qing Dynasty merchants under the wheels of the times
"Big Businessman" tells the story of Gu Pingyuan (played by Chen Xiao), a scholar who was framed and exiled, using his ingenuity, faking his death to get out, and developing his own business kingdom under the invasion of foreign merchants.
Looking at the synopsis, this drama is a very serious business war drama backed by history. And in such a TV series, the starring role will not be handed over to any little fresh meat, right?
Clicking on the cast list, I breathed a sigh of relief, the male protagonist Gu Pingyuan is played by the powerful actor Chen Xiao. Although he has not won the title of Emperor Shi, his acting skills are obvious to the audience.
In "Menghualu", the male protagonist Gu Qianfan played by Chen Xiao is stoic and decisive, and he is suave in ancient costume, and in "The Road of Life", as soon as Chen Xiao appears, he vividly interprets a middle school student who wants to go to college and is full of ideals and beliefs.
In "Little Days", which was broadcast in March, Chen Xiao also abandoned his star temperament, his eyes were full of exhaustion, and he played the low-eyed and pleasing husband to the fullest.
In the new drama "Big Businessman", Gu Pingyuan, played by Chen Xiao, is a recorded fugitive and a scholar who has been framed for his innocence.
In the stills, Gu Pingyuan, who has not yet been framed, is dressed in plain clothes, elegant and noble, and the temperament of a scholar is fully displayed, frowning lightly, as if he has seen something unfair.
At the boot-up ceremony, Chen Xiao was in a full state, and his bald head was difficult to hide his handsome appearance, with deep eyes and a high nose bridge.
In Reuters, Chen Xiao was dressed in white, his eyes were calm, and he had the strength of a jade-faced scholar. Comparing the stills with the vicissitudes of the sweater and snow, the contrast is too great.
It can be said that Chen Xiao's character-shaping ability is really too strong, and what he plays and thinks can perfectly portray the character traits of the characters at different stages.
All the members are fried king, this one is a master game
If Chen Xiao reassures me as the male lead, then after reading the entire cast, I am worried about whether he can suppress these supporting roles with explosive acting skills.
The first place, Cheng Taishen.
This name may not be familiar to the audience, but when it comes to the roles he has played, I think everyone will be able to react.
The god of catching gods in "The Four Famous Catches", Feng Huacheng in "The World", Xie Zetian in "Walking to the Wind", and Cheng Taishen, who won the Huading Award for Best Actor with a "Liu Qing", his performance amazed the audience, whether it is form or god, it can fit the role incomparably.
In the new drama "Big Businessman", Cheng Taishen will play the role of Chang Siye, just by listening to the name, you know that this role is definitely not simple, in the play, he will be a noble man of the ancient plains or a roadblock, we will wait and see.
second place, Huang Zhizhong.
Huang Zhizhong, a national first-class actor and actor, is the winner of Huading, Feitian and Magnolia, his performance is natural and vivid, no matter how deep and heavy the role is, under Huang Zhizhong's interpretation, it has become vivid and vivid.
Hai Rui in "Ming Dynasty", Yang Liren in "The Right Way in the World is the Vicissitudes of Life", as soon as Huang Zhizhong appeared, he was able to focus the audience's attention on himself.
In the hit drama "When the Stars Shine", Hua Zhuoqin, played by Huang Zhizhong, faced with his son's impolite behavior, he glared at each other angrily, with seriousness, nostalgia, and warnings. With a cold face and not saying a word, you can feel the sense of oppression through the screen.
Such a non-angry and self-authoritative performance directly shows the image of the character's superior to the fullest, and I can't help but sigh that Huang Zhizhong's acting skills are really as stable as ever.
In the new drama "Big Businessman", Huang Zhizhong is a special guest star, and he will have no less roles, with his aura and role-shaping ability, I am afraid that he will steal the spotlight again.
With such a powerful faction joining, I don't know what kind of sparks Chen Xiao will create when he plays against him?
third place, Li Chun.
Li Chun, who is also a special guest star, has been rising in popularity recently, and in 2018, he starred in the role of Wei Yanwan in "The Legend of Ruyi".
was framed during pregnancy, Wei Yanwan sat on the couch and pondered, her eyes were calm and composed, she had no expression on her face, but she could feel the calculation in her heart through the screen, Li Chun's acting skills were amazing, she completely integrated herself into the role and created a flesh-and-blood palace concubine role.
In addition to "The Legend of Ruyi", Li Chun has contributed excellent acting skills in "Flower Thousand Bone", "Celebrating More Than Years", and "Sword in the Snow".
In the new drama "Big Businessman", Li Chun will play the role of Su Zixuan, who is in a full start-up state, with a pair of bright eyes full of smiles. She is not the kind of big beauty who is stunning at a glance, but she is extremely attractive, and I look forward to her bringing wonderful performances to the audience again in the new drama.
fourth place, Zhu Yawen.
Among the actors of the Mesozoic Generation, Zhu Yawen's strength should not be underestimated, and his acting skills have been reflected in film and television dramas such as "Breaking through the Guandong", "Red Sorghum", and "Changjin Lake".
Compared with modern urban dramas, Zhu Yawen is more suitable for era, history and other dramas, he has a strong tough guy temperament, and his heroic spirit has fascinated many people in "Red Sorghum".
In the new drama, Zhu Yawen plays the role of Li Cheng, wearing a bright red military uniform, he looks even more tall and handsome, out of the greasy feeling of urban dramas, and he looks domineering and majestic after successfully removing the oil.
Zhu Yawen and Chen Xiao are two completely different styles, and the two appear in the same drama, which really makes people curious about what kind of contrast there will be.
In addition, Liu Peiqi, Liang Guanhua, Zhu Yin and other national first-class actors will also play important roles in "Big Businessman", so many powerful factions joined, I can't help but wonder how good the acting quality of this drama should be.
epilogue
"Big Businessman" can stir up a thousand splashes with just a start-up trailer, and there is no need to worry about the potential of the hit, not only the script has a unique charm, but the theme of business warfare under the real history attracts the audience's attention, with pattern and depth, it is not an ancient puppet drama that only knows how to talk about love.
Moreover, the screenwriter has many excellent works such as "Four Worlds in the Same Hall", "Mengfu on the Sea", "The Wind Blows in the Summer", and the cast is also full of "Wang Bang", such a big drama of all living beings, there is really no reason to refuse.
However, the show has just started, and the storyline, picture texture, and environmental atmosphere are still shrouded in mystery, which is really tickling people's hearts.
I believe that as long as "Big Businessman" is broadcast smoothly, the original work will be highly restored, and it will not be a problem to become a big hit.
