"The wind and the sun are beautiful, the spring flowers are blooming, and we have ushered in the chairman of the group, parentheses (original)." After Zhang Guoli finished reading, Zhang Tielin's face changed.
Don't worry, it's a reversal right away.
"From today, Chen Xincheng (Zhang Tielin) officially takes over the overall work of the nursing home."
After listening to Xiao Changqing (played by Zhang Guoli), Sun Qiancheng (played by Wang Gang) slapped his thigh, his face full of unconvinced.
Next, Sun Qiancheng said ruthlessly: I have the final say in this center.
In the next second, the reversal came again - Xiao Changqing smiled evilly, and won a cup with Chen Xincheng with satisfaction: "Money, let him find it." The power must be firmly held in our hands. ”
It's over? There is also a third reversal, Xia Mingzhou (played by Zhou Tao) made the final decision: Okay, I will preside over the overall work.
Come on, three old guys, report to Mr. Xia obediently.
As soon as this trailer came out, it completely caught my eye, the lines were humorous, and the three old guys played against each other, giving people an inexplicably familiar sense of "coolness".
reminds people of the millennium more than 20 years ago, a costume drama called "Ji Xiaolan with Iron Teeth and Copper Teeth", "It's all about reason~ All the songs are songs, two mouths with iron teeth and copper teeth, and they eat rice in the pot".
The "Iron Triangle" composed of actors Zhang Guoli, Wang Gang, and Zhang Tielin swept the screen and was filmed for 4 consecutive seasons, becoming an unforgettable memory of a generation of national dramas.
It's been 15 years, 69-year-old Zhang Guoli, 66-year-old Zhang Tielin, 75-year-old Wang Gang, plus 56-year-old Zhou Tao, once again in the new drama, the trio fights wits and courage, and pinches each other, making people dream back to "Ji Xiaolan".
On May 14th, that is, tomorrow, Beijing Satellite TV and Jiangsu Satellite TV will start broadcasting this 36-episode urban drama "Old Guy".
The lineup is strong enough. screenwriter Zhao Dongling, director Wen Deguang, in addition to Iron Triangle and heroine Zhou Tao, there are also Wang Zijian, Liu Jia, Zhang Haowei, Sun Anke and other powerful factions to help.
Netizens ridiculed, "I didn't wait for "Ji Xiaolan", I waited for "Old Guy". ”
Some netizens ridiculed, but they didn't expect that the peach factory showdown "Celebrating More Than Years 2" turned out to be the starring actor "Old Guy" who is nearly 300 years old.
Why does this urban light comedy have such confidence?
Can this drama rekindle the audience's enthusiasm for chasing "Ji Xiaolan"?
It's up to these "old guys".
1, the "Iron Triangle" runs a nursing home, some of you have seen this story
"Old Guy" mainly tells the story of Xiao Changqing (played by Zhang Guoli), Sun Qiancheng (played by Wang Gang), Chen Xincheng (played by Zhang Tielin) 3 retired old friends "strong-hearted", after retirement, they got together and co-founded a warm center, the pension center gradually operated in various difficulties, they solved problems for the elderly at the same time, but also in the process to become better old guys.
Combined with the trailer, the story of "Old Guy" has at least three major highlights:
One is the "Iron Triangle" + Zhou Tao's drama.
Although this is the first cooperation of the Iron Triangle after 15 years, and the story has come to the city, if the "Iron Triangle" is not dramatic, this drama will be equivalent to not being filmed.
Fortunately, watching the trailer, the screenwriter understands what the audience wants too well.
Three old guys, teaming up to run a pension center.
The process of starting a community was not all smooth sailing, and the old guys themselves faced their own problems.
Sun Qiancheng and Xia Mingzhou (played by Zhou Tao) are tense because of their daughter's unhappy marriage, but they still have to ask for money from their wife, so let's have a line first - "Do you want 20,000 or 30,000 this time?" "It's about the same, that is, it's still four million nine hundred and seventy eighty thousand."
The money is coming, but there is also a chairwoman.
In this way, the three old guys were also unconvinced by each other - "It is the two of us who do the work, and he is the one who benefits." "I've got to take care of the whole picture."
Seeing that Zhang Tielin is like an emperor, the following two are gone-"We have to form a united front." ”
Yes, this is He Shen and Ji Xiaolan teaming up to set the emperor in the air.
can be the same as "Ji Xiaolan" back then, infighting is infighting, and what should be done must be done.
No, the unified action of the three is here - "dry garbage" and "wet garbage", Zhang Guoli: "Call me?" ”
I went to the detention center, a small cubicle, Wang Gang: "The three of us are a gang" Zhang Tielin was unhappy: "Is the team okay?" ”
The three's own joyful performance method brought the audience back to the Iron Triangle at once, and also diluted the heaviness of the pension drama itself, and this good show is coming.
The second is the battle of the elderly workplace.
This drama is an Iron Triangle reunion drama, and it is also a reality comedy.
The old man's later life is a social hotspot that many people pay attention to today, and "Old Guy" also brings out various realistic topics and cool points through the establishment of a nursing home by Xiao Changqing, Sun Qiancheng, and Chen Xincheng.
The old people who live in the community bring all kinds of troubles, and Audio-Technica is busy solving all kinds of problems.
Aunt Niu was deceived in the house, tube.
Aunt Xu faced a family dispute and arranged.
In the trailer alone, there are at least three different pension cases, with a fast pace and a cool story.
The third is the life of old age.
The title of the play is "Old Guy", and there is another key to the good look of the series, which is how to face the old.
The play shows all kinds of elderly people and their diverse lives, some of them face family conflicts, some encounter health crises, and some fall into the whirlpool of emotions.
For example, Chen Xincheng can't let go of his glorious past, and he is on the same page as his rebellious dream-chasing son; Xiao Changqing was widowed in his early years, and he was alone with the food and clothing of a large family, and he always had the heart to. Sun Qiancheng is here, and he has to be busy "taking the rape".
As it is said in the play, "When you get old, the more you live, the less dignified you become." "If you are destined to be abandoned by society when you are old, what is the point of struggling for a lifetime?"
The story is obviously also through Xiao Changqing, Sun Qiancheng, and Chen Xincheng, interpreting a positive and healthy concept of aging, reflecting the spiritual transformation of China's silver-haired people from "providing for the elderly" to "learning for the elderly, having fun for the elderly, and doing something for the elderly".
From these, it can be seen that this play has both inspirational + realistic + comedy elements for the elderly.
These elements are nested within each other, believing in a tight plot and a funny iron triangle.
The main plot is interesting and interesting, and the side plots are murmuring, which cooperate with each other to form a complete and fulfilling story.
2, the "Iron Triangle" is the first to ride Zhou Tao, Liu Jia and Wang Zijian are matched, and the powerful factions gather
Without further ado, what the audience wants to see the most is, of course, the Iron Triangle.
Zhang Guoli plays Xiao Changqing in the play, Wang Gang plays Sun Qiancheng, and Zhang Tielin plays Chen Xincheng.
Xiao Changqing is gentle and wise, Sun Qiancheng is "scheming", and Chen Xincheng is domineering and childish.
Looking at the posture of "Ji Xiaolan" and "He Shen" reporting to the "emperor", the iron triangle of "Ji Xiaolan" has crossed.
The joyful mode of the three people in the play who love and kill each other from beginning to end is still the same, who doesn't say anything after watching it: Okay, you have to act like this!
But there is also more of the old guy's mutual support and affection.
Watching the Iron Triangle show, I am happy.
But in addition to the Iron Triangle, the series also added a heart booster: Zhou Tao.
As a senior host who has hosted the 17th Spring Festival Gala, Zhou Tao used to give people the feeling of elegance and intellectuality.
But in fact, Zhou Tao has made many guest appearances in sketches in recent years, and his performance is not bad.
In the play, she plays Wang Gang's "leader", with a hint of cold humor in the sassy, the performance in the trailer is quite outstanding, there is a scene where Xia Mingzhou, who presides over the overall work of the pension center, opens the window and shouts at the iron triangle outside: The office is heavy, no loud noise!
The image of the domineering female president will not come out.
If the feature film is also at this level, I'm afraid that TV series invitations will be indispensable in the future.
But in addition to these four protagonists, the supporting roles found in the series are not light.
The first place, Liu Jia.
"Hello, Li Huanying" is popular, everyone still thinks that Liu Jia is a late bloomer, but in fact, she has long been a powerful actor, the spy war drama became famous, and "Ren Changxia" won the performance award.
Her plays can always bring people a comfortable feeling, and this time she played Zhang Tielin's wife, and the back robe was no exception.
second place, Wang Zijian.
Starting from the real estate agency of "Settle Home", Wang Zijian has taken root in the position of an actor, and his solid and sophisticated performance is really no worse than that of a professional actor.
Wang Zijian is especially suitable for appearing in urban dramas with a light comedy atmosphere, you see, this is not all right.
third place, Sun Anke.
Maybe the audience is unfamiliar with this name, but Yang Buregret in "Heaven and Dragon Slayer", and the performances in "Wading in the Sea of Anger", "Children of the Qiao Family" and "Soul Hunting" should leave an impression on many people.
This time she played Wang Gang's children, which is also appropriate.
fourth place, Zhang Haowei.
The main creator knows how to play stalks.
The eldest prince in "Celebrating More Than Years" is also here.
In this play, he plays Zhang Tielin's son,
It seems that he is still a "prince", and the father-son drama is also right.
When these powerful factions get together, they have to have an acting feast.
3, the ace screenwriter is in charge, this time the "Iron Triangle" is going to break the game?
Although the Iron Triangle reunion is full of highlights, there is a faint concern from the audience that has to be mentioned: classic reboots are often the hardest hit areas for domestic dramas to overturn.
Although "Old Guy" is not a reboot, for the audience, it feels similar.
And the reason why there is a classic frequent overturn, the main problem is that the story is short and the production is so-so.
It can be seen here that the key to a good classic reunion and reboot drama is a wonderful and down-to-earth story.
And this "Old Guy" does exactly that.
The play invited Zhao Dongling, the ace screenwriter of the national drama.
Not to mention the many previous high-reputation masterpieces, in the past three years alone, she has had word-of-mouth masterpieces such as "Happiness to Ten Thousand Homes", "Police Honor", "Glory of the Fathers" and so on.
Zhao Dongling is good at writing realistic themes, and is also good at creating group portraits of characters, and catches people's attention in wonderful drama conflicts.
Director Wen Deguang has filmed "All About Dr. Tang", and urban dramas and group dramas can't make it difficult for him.
The main creator is reliable, in addition to the core attraction of the Iron Triangle, the series does not forget to focus on the real plight of the elderly, and it also has a deep insight into life.
Through a nursing center and the complex human nature behind each case, it shows the warmth and coldness of the real society and the appearance of all kinds of beings in the times.
Excavating human nature in the plot and gaining insight into people's hearts is the core of the show, and it also makes the play by no means a water drama of consumer feelings.
In addition to the touching of the Iron Triangle reunion in the trailer, what touched me the most was the future in the eyes of the three old guys-
What is the future may be "unknown", "adventure", and infinite possibilities.
But do older people really have a future?
watched the Iron Triangle live for most of his life in the play, and he is once again anxious to devote himself to unknown challenges like a young man, think of a way, and work hard, I know that it is good to be young.
Rightfully own the future and take risks.
But, turn your head to look at this exciting new life.
Maka~
They are anxious and worried, but they are also happy to look forward to it.
69-year-old Zhang Guoli, 66-year-old Zhang Tielin, 75-year-old Wang Gang.
Three old guys, or the Iron Triangle.
Compared to young people, they have no future?
Opposite.
Their hopes for the future are pure.
Old guy, you can also live well with hope.
No matter how old you are, live well with a group of good friends, and there will definitely be good things waiting for you.
Can "Old Guy" fight a bloody way out and justify the "Iron Triangle" and the drama series played by veteran domestic entertainment actors?
The answer is yes or no, it depends on the Iron Triangle.
