The 29th Magnolia Awards ceremony is definitely the top event in the entertainment industry this summer.
As soon as the awards ceremony began, the hot search was not interrupted.
Only, after the announcement of the list of winners.
The winners, who should have received flowers and applause, were questioned from all sides.
Best actor Hu Ge narrowly defeated Fan Wei, and netizens complained that Magnolia was actually "self-congratulatory in the circle".
Not to mention the other best actress Zhou Xun, who has recently been caught in a public opinion storm of "indisputable".
If Magnolia speaks by acting.
It doesn't matter if the winners are controversial in their acting skills.
Why is it that even the guests in charge of awarding awards have to be picked?
It turned out that Liu Yifei was invited by the organizer to attend the Magnolia ceremony.
She wore a high-fashioned dress to show the demeanor of a goddess.
Unexpectedly, a seating arrangement made her sit with Wan Qian, the goddess of side faces.
As we all know, Liu Yifei's hump nose once became a template for plastic surgery hospitals.
However, Wan Qian is not simple, her tall nose bridge did not fall in front of Liu Tianxian.
What's more, the female guests present are thinner than the other.
In contrast, Liu Yifei can be described as "big shoulders and round waist".
Could it be that the "fairy sister" is going down to earth this time?
In fact, we are flickered by an aesthetic domestication!
01
As we all know, aesthetics is a very subjective thing.
Although the aesthetics are not the same between people.
But the pursuit of beauty has a common template.
That's why there is a saying that "good-looking people are alike".
Then, Liu Yifei, who used to be the representative of Shenyan.
Why is it picked by the public for being out of shape?
Could it really be that the years are unforgiving, and she no longer has the brilliance of the past?
In fact, this has a lot to do with the aesthetic changes over the years.
I don't know if you've ever thought about a question.
Since when has plump beauties stopped being popular in the entertainment industry?
In 2023, female stars Dong Jie and Zhao Jinmai will appear on the streets of Paris hand in hand.
They are eye-popping under the lens of passers-by.
It's not that I'm attracted by their beauty.
was deeply shocked by the female star's thin figure of a piece of ribs.
More netizens commented sharply: It looks like a figure that only existed in the famine era.
However, it also has a lot to do with the lens.
After all, there is still a saying that "photogenic fat ten pounds".
Therefore, it is not incomprehensible that female stars pursue an excessively thin figure in order to look good on camera.
However, in the 90s of the last century, Hong Kong Star did not have such body anxiety.
is also photogenic, and the fat on their arms can even be clearly seen in the picture.
I'm afraid I'll be picked on for being too "fat" now.
This is a reminder: why has our aesthetic changed so much?
In fact, the answer to this question can be found from Liu Yifei.
In 2002, 16-year-old Liu Yifei became popular in the country for her role as Bai Xiuzhu in "The Family of Gold Powder".
In the second year, Liu Yifei played Wang Yuyan in "Dragon Babu", and since then, the name of "fairy sister" has spread all over the country.
It can be seen that as soon as she debuted, her appearance was widely recognized by the public.
Not to mention that she later played Ye Ling'er, her delicate image and excellent acting skills directly conquered the discerning fairy sword players.
Not only that, Liu Yifei, who has just entered the entertainment industry, was soon favored by the film industry.
In 2011, she collaborated with Tianwang Liming in "The Legend of the Hongmen Banquet", and the posthumous and independent image of Yu Ji deeply touched the hearts of every audience.
Liu Yifei's appearance has been fully verified in the test of the big screen again and again.
To say that "the national aesthetic has been unified" does not sound like an exaggeration.
Moreover, her beauty has also been highly recognized by industry insiders.
The famous writer Yishu has a novel called "The Story of Rose", in which the heroine Huang Yimei sets a peerless beauty.
When the book was about to be remade into a film and television work, director Wang Jun could be said to have found Liu Yifei without hesitation.
He insisted that Liu Yifei play the role of Huang Yimei.
After all, in the director's heart, only the top actress can better convince the audience.
In this way, "The Story of Rose" came out and won an astonishing 2 billion views.
But behind the huge fame, there are also a lot of doubts.
02
Many viewers no longer buy Liu Yifei, and even made negative judgments on her appearance.
This is the 26th Magnolia, Liu Yifei attended the award ceremony and was "ridiculed" by the group.
Some people think that Liu Yifei's appearance is overestimated, and she is not so good-looking at all.
Some people also say that Liu Yifei's posture is too poor, far worse than other female stars.
is simply a complete criticism of Liu Yifei.
In fact, the deep-seated reason behind this is not her personal, but related to the age of the public.
With the rise of the Internet, more and more people can join online discussions.
At the same time, it has also greatly lowered the threshold for surfing the Internet, so the group of people who have gone online in the millennium have long been updated.
So most of the people who are picky in every way now are the young new generation.
Although this is only part of the sound, it is enough to illustrate the influence of aesthetic differences.
Open any software, and you can see a large number of Internet celebrity faces and skinny figures.
It turns out that unconsciously, the mainstream aesthetic has undergone earth-shaking changes.
It is not Liu Yifei, but the new audience.
If such a statement is not convincing, you can also witness it from a group photo.
In the group photo of many artists, Liu Yifei is very beautiful, and she is not compared to others at all.
is enough to show that her appearance is still very strong, which is very different from the overwhelming "infamy".
Of course, the most discussed issue is her posture.
There are countless words about "too fat, too fat".
The person who said this must not understand the aesthetic concept of the ancient tradition of the mainland.
In ancient times, there was a word called "pearl round and jade", which described women as plump and beautiful.
During the Tang Dynasty, the mainstream of "fat as beauty" prevailed.
The favorite concubine Yang Guifei is a typical "slightly chubby" beauty.
It can be seen that Liu Yifei's posture perfectly conforms to the ancients' pursuit of beauty.
Modern aesthetics, on the other hand, abandon tradition and turn to the embrace of Western aesthetics.
Assuming that the aesthetics of Westerners are really ahead of their time, forget it.
However, the current global aesthetic has entered the stage of "regression".
The story of the remake of "The Little Mermaid" by a famous American film company.
As soon as the heroine appeared, she directly "thundered" the audience.
As soon as the film was released, it was complained about a lot at home and abroad.
In such a scenario, can Western aesthetics really represent all of humanity?
03
Obviously, the question of whether it is beautiful or not cannot be forced.
But netizens' "crusade" against Liu Yifei is really unwarranted.
No matter how you look at it, her well-proportioned figure has nothing to do with "fat".
Obviously, many people have lost too much weight, but it has become a kind of ridicule of normal figures.
It is reminiscent of the thought-provoking aphorism: when abnormality becomes the norm, normality becomes "crime".
Korean artist Kim Hyun-ah once publicly said on the show that she fainted backstage many times because she wanted to keep in shape.
There is even a stretcher all year round for emergency use.
Isn't this a manifestation of "pathology"?
Perhaps, in the future, the public aesthetic will become more and more "extreme".
I still hope that the people can maintain their own independent judgment and not be carried away by the mainstream.
Even if Liu Yifei is not RMB, he can't be liked by everyone.
However, her "dilemma" alone speaks for itself.
After all, the beauty of "Sister Fairy" has long been recognized by many parties.
No matter how subjective the concepts of beauty and ugliness are, they cannot completely confuse right and wrong.
So, how do you embrace diverse aesthetics while maintaining your heart? This is a question that many people have to think about now.
