A few days ago, in the "annual comedy competition" selection competition, the well-known comedian Jin Jing unexpectedly lost, which surprised many people. A total of 25 participating groups, Jin Jing and long-time partner Liu Shengying were actually squeezed out of the top 12 and did not qualify for the group battle. After that, although he was able to continue the next game as a resurrection, it was obvious that the two were hit and were very depressed. From a distinctive and popular comedy actress to today's preliminary loss, what has happened?
To be fair, in addition to Jia Ling and Zhang Xiaofei, Jin Jing is a comedy actress who has risen in recent years. Although she has no proper acting training, her performance style is also self-contained, pompous and unpretentious, moody and sad is very strong, seemingly some "fine points", but in fact, it is relaxed and impersonal, belonging to the more spirited ghost horse type among comedians. She and her college friend Liu Shengying have been sorry for each other to this day with funny plots and stylized performances.
However, in the "Confidence Shines Brightly" created by the duo in this comedy competition, from the content to the performance, the "winning magic weapon" that Jin Jing relied on before is losing its original advantage. "Confidence Shines Brightly" tells the story of a 33-year-old woman who fails to run a fake person and becomes her true self with the comfort and encouragement of her friends. Arrogant enough that he did not even want to bend down to pick up things and disrespect others, King Ofina, because he accidentally vented in front of the property steward, he thought that he had lowered his noble head. When people pretended to be her own role model, she stood up "confidently". After experiencing the "pickpocketing" incidents such as answering vulgar audio and being talked about "looking up queen" blind date and then failing, the 33-year-old young woman woke up, took off her wig and threw off her English name to restore Wang Lijuan, admitting that "I pretended not to learn and did not learn" and "I completely lost nothing". At the end of the story, although Wang Lijuan, who wants to live boldly, has a "bad personality" and "loves vulgarity", she is "still proud" and "her high head has never been lowered"... Pretending to be noble and elegant and knowledgeable is certainly not self-confidence, then knowing that you are not enough (returning to your true self) to live boldly but still proud and never bowing your head is self-confidence?
Looking at the performance again, Jin Jing's expression, especially the exaggerated body language to the point of pretentiousness makes people mad, a little difficult to watch, the original degree of free release has disappeared. In short, you can't see what kind of light the heroine in "Confident Shines". The problem is that Jin Jing, as the screenwriter and star, does not seem to have figured out what self-confidence is, and what is the difference between self-confidence and arrogance. So, the audience and mentors did not hesitate to give scores to express their views on Jin Jing and Liu Shengying and their works— a score that was even lower than that of two non-professional actors. Although Jin Jing still insisted that this work was what she wanted to express, the final score proved that the quality and standard of "Shine with Confidence" was not like the work of a mature and successful actor. This result was probably not expected by Jin Jing, but it was reasonable and unexpected for the audience who had seen his works.
Don't think that Huang Bo, a high emotional intelligence mentor, is just comforting Jin Jing, "Because she (Jin Jing) is a successful actor, after adding a lot of points to her, she was given a lot of restrictions, there was no way, she could only wear colored glasses to see her." In fact, what Huang Bo wants to say is a suggestion, suggesting that Jin Jing can try to cooperate with other screenwriters, "put some new things in, the world may be wider." If you can't wake up Jin Jing, then the words of another mentor, Xu Zheng, are more straightforward: jin Jing's works before were very popular and easy to understand, and had their own performance style, but "Confident Shine" I did not understand and grasp too much, especially when I saw the second half.
Starting with the airport groundwork trainer who participated in "Paramount Tonight" in 2016, Jin Jing slowly established his own style of creating and performing comedy, and most of his works came from life: always fantasizing about being secretly loved by girls, annoying workplace ABC, ready to fall in love with the little fairy... The story of drawing nourishment from life is also more skilled in acting, and because of this, Jin Jing, who has not undergone scientific training, has become popular in two or three years and has become a "comedy sister" in the mouths of many contestants this time.
Thanks to the ability to express the joys and sorrows of the characters with exaggerated faces and body language, Jin Jing's exaggerated comedy stands out with its distinctiveness, while an unprofessionally crafted casualness and wildness are also growing rapidly. In 2020, when she participated in the 5th season of "Happy Comedians", she was confused, "From the beginning of the industry to now I feel that I have been in a state of ignorance, I don't know what kind of effect my work will be, just think it is funny? ”
Although Jin Jing has been engaged in comedy for 4 years by 2020, the chief screenwriter of "Happy Comedian" warned her that she did not have much experience in comedy sketches and could not imagine the different effects that a work might have. Perhaps it was already secretly laying the groundwork for today's event. Unfortunately, in the years of her fame, she participated in the "Mars Intelligence Bureau", "The Temptation of the Meal Bureau", "Miss Beauty", "Longing for Life", "Actors Please Take Place", "Extreme Challenge", "Youth With You", "Supernova Games", "Ace to Ace", etc. Almost all the popular variety shows, filming film and television dramas, gags, game competitions, live sales, not that comedians can not cross-border grinding, I am afraid that a heart that should focus on comedy is slowly scattered in the busy daily life, and it is difficult to return. What's even more frightening is that when a person's funny memes and a certain sentence in the comedy are magically circulated, people will be mistaken for a success, and cognition may also be problematic.
The game is very realistic, no matter who you are before, what you have done, the hard thing on the field is the vote of the audience, and the basis of the audience vote is the solid and good work. Perhaps, this small setback will give Jin Jing a reminder of what went wrong? Sometimes people walk too fast, too tired, too impetuous, the heart and brain are often unable to keep up, without flesh-and-blood connected feelings and thinking refinement, often lose the root. Excessive exaggeration is a problem, and it is even more problematic to think that the good theme and intention of the work are difficult for the audience to accept or get.
Being "resurrected" means that Jin Jing still has a chance to compete. Fortunately, comedy does not compete for a moment to win or lose, lose a big deal and start over, she is already ready to fail repeatedly, if it is not out of love, "keep your head held high" is just a gesture. I look forward to her "playing fine" every time in future competitions.
