From the perspective of film and television dramas, 20 years ago was still an era when youth and trauma literature was rampant, and the boss character was standing, and the silly and sweet heroine had a strong sense of substitution.
But in recent years, the momentum of idol dramas has declined significantly, and compared with the boss and his wife, the real hits have begun to tilt towards suspense and main theme themes.
But I have to say that the audience's aesthetics are improving, but film and television creators are still in a high position.
After the previous "Love as the Camp" was broadcast, it was jokingly called "Tuying", and the picture ideas proposed by the actors were rejected by the director, and the sentence "outdated" made Wang Hedi speechless.
As a result, the director's final shot was very explosive every minute and second, and every pixel seemed to bully the audience's aesthetics.
"Camp with Love" was complained about incompletely, but at the same time, the aesthetics that the entertainment industry still adheres to have actually imperceptibly affected many people.
In the past, our domestic dramas focused on a reality, even if the plot of the domineering president falling in love with me, it was rare to add too many filters and grinding to the actors, and the limitations of technology allowed the audience to see a more realistic state of the actors.
Tang Yan in "Love Wakes Up" is still yellow and black.
Lin Zhiying in "The Star of the Sheep" also has stubble, pores, and big eye bags on her face.
But now, it doesn't matter if you're a 17-year-old girl or a 40-year-old young woman, everyone has milk skin, baby skin.
Not only that, but there are many celebrities who have fallen into beauty anxiety, obviously they are already fairy faces, but they frequently use knives and injections on their faces, and finally have a face full of science and technology, and they can't even do the most basic expression management.
Up to now, the audience still can't accept that the actor's state is too stiff and swollen, but they also can't accept that the actor's face has some natural flaws and graininess.
Tong Yao's performance in the TV series "Faint Fire" was complained by some netizens.
In the play, the heroine Nanya portrayed by Tong Yao is positioned as the most beautiful woman in Qingshui Town, and the beauty of Nanya in the story makes men unable to restrain their desire to possess, making women jealous and hateful and even speaking ill of each other.
The director's lens shows Tong Yao's beauty very aesthetically, his lens contains many perspectives, under the normal perspective, the director magnifies the gentle beauty of Tong Yao's body, soft long hair, gentle face, when the warm light hits her, it is the beauty of the precipitation of the years.
Tong Yao's temperament and the story background of Jiangnan Town are indeed provocative, and it does make people's hearts beat faster.
Similarly, in some shots with ambiguous perspectives, the director focuses on the details, the camera wanders over Tong Yao's body, outlining her curves across the screen, the fine sweat on Tong Yao's neck in the hot summer, and her faintly exposed waist when she bends over, are all blurred in slow motion.
It is no exaggeration to say that Tong Yao has created many roles on the screen in the past two years, but Nanya is really beautiful enough to hold your breath, make people yearn for it, and make people jealous.
But such a beautiful Tong Yao has not escaped the judgment of appearance.
Some netizens complained that "Tong Yao's appearance is also very ordinary in a small town".
Some netizens commented spicily, "Where is Tong Yao like the most beautiful and sexiest woman in the whole town?"
Aesthetics are indeed subjective, and Tong Yao's beauty is indeed not ranked in the entire entertainment industry.
But Tong Yao's portrayal in "Faint Fire" is charming and convincing.
And the reason why the audience is suspicious of Tong Yao's state in "Faint Fire" is because many viewers are blinded by fake skin grinding and filters, and they can't tolerate a little real and natural beauty.
In the camera, when the director wants to shoot Tong Yao's beauty, she is beautiful.
But also from some angles, Tong Yao can't hide her sense of age of 38.
For example, in the interrogation room, Tong Yao was embarrassed, her hair was messy, and her face was even vicissitudes.
For example, in some straightforward shots, Tong Yao even has obvious nasolabial folds, not only is her face not perfect, but her figure is not extremely hot.
But sometimes, beauty is a feeling.
Do you say that Nanya played by Tong Yao is stained with the stickiness of Jiangnan, and her hair is sticking to her slender neck and oozing fine sweat?
Of course it's beautiful, but it's not as beautiful as Nanya's calm and uncompromising temperament at all times.
There is a paragraph in the plot that the male protagonist played by Zhang Xincheng fell for Nanya's beauty and unconsciously stretched out his hand to touch it, but was scolded by Nanya. The male protagonist was seen through his thoughts, and he learned from the rest of the town to verbally humiliate Nanya without words.
Immediately afterwards, Nanya clearly refused to "go out" from the beginning, and then looked indifferent in the back, and in the accusation of the male protagonist, she still straightened her back, did not explain, did not prove herself, and at the same time drew a clear line and left in style.
On Nanya, she won't feel ashamed to watch "Huang Shi", it's not her fault that the button is broken, whoever she caters to and who she rejects will not become anyone's handle, and it will become a reason for anyone to humiliate at will, making her fall into shame and self-blame.
Tong Yao's beauty is not only her natural and relaxed beauty, but also the beauty of her temperament.
These beauties are really more eye-catching than thick dermabrasion filters, and they are really more attractive than the "beauties" who put various templates on their faces.
Maybe Tong Yao's performance in "Faint Fire" can't convince every audience, but aesthetics is subjective, and beauty is objective, the audience can say that Tong Yao's appearance, temperament and even acting skills do not meet their own aesthetics, but there is really no reason to label Tong Yao as "ugly", "old" or even "ordinary".
Moreover, the plot setting of the drama "Faint Fire" itself is very conservative, Tong Yao portrays a married woman, she is married, an adult, a mature woman and a child, and such a character is required to conform to the aesthetics of white and thin, and to maintain the image of being beautiful on the red carpet all the time, is the real drama.
In addition, there is no such thing as a perfect look. Fan Bingbing will be ridiculed for being slightly fat, Liu Yifei will be complained about his gums, Yang Mi's jaw angle is often discussed by the audience, and Di Lieba will also be questioned about his "male appearance".
But these people are the ceiling of internal entertainment's appearance, on the contrary, those who have smiling lips, full apple muscles, and glowing white and glowing scientific and technological faces in film and television dramas are unrecognizable when placed next to these "flawed" beauties.
Of course, this also shows that domestic dramas should really change their aesthetics, stuff any plastic surgery face into the TV series, grab a lot of messy casting, and 40+ have to play a girl with a dermabrasion filter, no wonder the appearance anxiety of girls is so serious now.
Female celebrities are undergoing injections and plastic surgery one by one, and they have become ageless specimens in the illusion of dermabrasion in the later stage, who is not anxious.
I support domestic dramas to have more relaxed beauties like Tong Yao, who look natural, are comfortable, beautiful when they should be, and have tension when acting.
Finally, what do you think of Tong Yao's performance in "Faint Fire"?
