1. Cheng Cheng adheres to the belief in revenge and joins the complex whirlpool of disputes in the Gao family
Shaohua is fleeting, and Cheng Cheng was originally such a vibrant and energetic young man. However, a sudden catastrophic fire took the lives of his loved ones, and since then, his laughter has disappeared like a cloud of smoke.
The initiator of this disaster was the Gao family, the shadow that lingered in his heart.
With tears in his eyes, Cheng Cheng carefully collected his memories of the past with his relatives, and vowed to take revenge on the Gao family and cleanse them of the sins they committed. He took out the knife that had been passed down from his family for generations, and carefully carved a mysterious symbol on the blade, a secret method handed down by his ancestors, symbolizing that he would do whatever it took to seek justice for his loved ones.
Time flies, and Cheng Cheng, with his own wisdom and courage, gradually infiltrates the core area of the Gao family, waiting for the best opportunity for revenge. In order to get closer to the Gao family, he carefully planned a thrilling "Cloister Pavilion Fire", and while the Gao family fled in a panic, he returned to this well-known ancient mansion in the name of the descendants of the Gao family.
Stepping into his homeland, Cheng Cheng examined everything around him, trying to find the bits and pieces of the year. He closed his eyes tightly, as if he knew every piece of masonry and rubble here.
As the former master, Cheng Cheng now has to disguise himself as an ordinary child of the Gao family, carefully concealing his true identity, so as not to startle the snake and destroy his revenge plan.
Cheng Cheng quickly fell into the strife within this dark family. He is shrewd and cautious, trying to maintain his position in the Gao family, while keeping a close eye on the changes in the Gao family's power.
In his opinion, as long as he seizes the fleeting opportunity, everything will be in his hands.
The idea of revenge has long been deeply rooted in Cheng Cheng's heart, and to make it bear fruit, he must wander within the Gao family and wait patiently for that moment when everything is ready.
No one knows what kind of secrets this seemingly humble and polite young man hides deep in his heart.
Second, the relationship between Cheng Cheng and Jiang Yuanxing gradually warmed up, and the grievances and entanglements intensified
After returning to the Gao family's old mansion, Cheng Cheng was surprised to find that the new head of the Gao family turned out to be a handsome woman with an extraordinary temperament - Jiang Yuanxing. She completely subverted Cheng Cheng's traditional perception of the sons and daughters of the Gao family, and this unexpected courage made him have an irrepressible curiosity about her.
In order to get closer to Jiang Yuanxing and obtain more favorable information resources, Cheng Cheng skillfully showed his decadent and uninhibited side in front of her eyes. He deliberately rubbed his clothes into folds, his hair was scattered, and his whole person exuded a deviant and wild aura, his intention was to dispel Jiang Yuanxing's vigilance.
As expected, this courtesy, which contrasted sharply with his appearance, quickly attracted Jiang Yuanxing's attention. As a shrewd and capable female elite in the workplace, she was full of praise for this young man with elegant manners and proper speech, and the relationship between the two began to be intimate.
Cheng Cheng had an ulterior secret in his heart, but his deepening feelings for Jiang Yuanxing were sincere. Teasing and tempting again and again, and staring affectionately again and again, he has almost been completely captured by the charm of this daughter of the Gao family.
Once, he just wanted to use Jiang Yuanxing's power to speed up the implementation of the revenge plan, but he never expected that he would be deeply in love and unable to extricate himself.
Just as the relationship between the two developed to an ambiguous stage, the family disputes within the Gao family gradually heated up at this moment. As an outsider, Jiang Yuanxing was involuntarily involved in it and fell into a dilemma, while Cheng Cheng played a vital role in this fierce struggle, carefully planning every move, strategizing, and winning a thousand miles.
Their relationship was thus involved in family grievances, and Cheng Cheng's feelings for Jiang Yuanxing became deeper and deeper, but at the same time, he also showed a trace of ruthless murderous aura from time to time, which made people wonder if he was just using this daughter of the Gao family? Their destinies are intertwined, plunged into endless chaos.
Third, the conspiracy of the cloister pavilion surfaced, and there were many suspicions
The struggle within the Gao family is intensifying, the two sides are tense, you come and go, and the undercurrent is surging. Just when Jiang Yuanxing was caught in it and was in a dilemma, Cheng Cheng's sinister and cunning side was gradually exposed.
Behind the scenes, Cheng Cheng quietly arranged a shocking gamble. He instructed his cronies to deliberately create an even more tragic Cloister Pavilion disaster, which caused the Gao family to fall into a chaotic situation of casualties and fatigue for a while.
It was Cheng Cheng's move that made the Gao family's power change speed suddenly accelerate.
In this chaotic whirlpool, Cheng Cheng consistently gave Jiang Yuanxing spiritual support and comfort, making her gradually grow into an important pillar of the Gao family in the fierce internal struggle of the family.
He whispered softly at times, and admonished him solemnly, quietly changing Jiang Yuanxing's way of thinking and decision-making process through various means.
On the surface, everything seems to be calm, but in reality there is a turbulent undercurrent. As an outsider who has nothing to do with the Gao family, why did Cheng Cheng take such pains to maintain this already rotten family order? What kind of motive did he have to approach Jiang Yuanxing again and again? These questions spread like a fog in the minds of the audience.
Some people question that Cheng Cheng orchestrated the disaster of the Cloister Pavilion, and his real intention was to take advantage of the chaos to seize the power of the Gao family; Some people also speculate that he deliberately wooed Jiang Yuanxing in order to use the power of this strong woman to clear the obstacles on the road to revenge for him...... All kinds of speculations emerge one after another, but the truth can only be revealed by Cheng Ben himself.
Unconsciously, the audience has been deeply immersed in this family drama that blends fiction and reality and is full of suspense. Even Jiang Yuanxing began to wonder, what kind of identity background is this wise man who can always turn crises into opportunities? Layers of suspicion loom over everyone's heart, making people look forward to the next turning point of fate.
Fourth, the real Zhang Xincheng is not embellished, showing his charm and true colors
In this family drama where fiction and reality are intertwined and suspicious, actor Zhang Xincheng successfully portrayed the mysterious role of Cheng Cheng with his superb acting skills, showing the unique charm of a young man who is unpretentious and real.
What the audience saw in front of the screen was Cheng Cheng with a slightly vicissitudes of life and not handsome and chic facial features. Zhang Xincheng did not deliberately cover up his small flaws, but presented them in front of everyone with the most authentic appearance.
The untouched pimples on his face and the faint wrinkles on his forehead all tell that this young man who is only 26 years old has entered a new stage of his life.
However, it is this mature temperament that does not match his age that makes Cheng Cheng's personality portrayal more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. The audience was able to fully immerse themselves in the character without being distracted by overly glorified appearances.
In the emotional exchange with Jiang Yuanxing, Zhang Xincheng showed excellent control ability and maintained an excellent competitive state as always. Sometimes he exudes an elegant and noble gentlemanly temperament, and just right to express his respect for Jiang Yuanxing; However, at some moments, he instantly transforms into a ruthless aura that makes people shocked.
It is precisely because Zhang Xincheng can freely switch between his identity in and out of the play that he successfully created Cheng Cheng, a cunning, witty, and moody character.
Especially in a seemingly unintentional shot, Zhang Xincheng is concentrating on tidying up his appearance, but a puzzling smile suddenly appears on the corner of his mouth, which makes the audience feel creepy at this moment.
This is exactly the unique charm that Zhang Xincheng exudes in front of the big screen without filters. He is never pretentious, nor is he pretentious, but just shows every detail in the most natural way, but because of this, the character is more deeply rooted.
This unpolished sense of realism is the most charming thing about Zhang Xincheng.
Part 5: Deng Jiajia's superb acting skills interpret the myriad of characters
In addition to Zhang Xincheng's wonderful performance, another highlight in "The Cloister Pavilion" is the heroine Deng Jiajia's fine depiction of Jiang Yuanxing's character. As a bold and capable female elite in the workplace, Deng Jiajia successfully expressed Jiang Yuanxing's multiple traits vividly.
Sometimes, Jiang Yuanxing is an unruly and independent strong woman. In the face of the reproach of her superiors, she was not afraid, but responded with an aggressive attitude, her eyes were sharp, her tone was firm, and her whole person was full of courageous momentum.
This is the key factor for Deng Jiajia to successfully show Jiang Yuanxing's side in front of the audience.
However, in the blink of an eye, she was able to quickly transform into a gentle, virtuous, and knowledgeable intellectual woman. When fighting fiercely with Cheng Cheng, Deng Jiajia will show a demure and elegant posture, revealing a shy attitude between his eyebrows, the two of them come and go, laughing and scolding, and having fun.
Deng Jiajia is highly skilled and skillful, and with only subtle facial expressions and body language, he can skillfully fuse the two diametrically opposed personalities on Jiang Yuanxing's body.
The audience was gradually attracted to her acting skills and completely conquered by her vivid and vivid performances.
In the extreme environment involving the conspiracy of the Gao family, Deng Jiajia's acting skills are amazing!
