Just two terms of domestic horror films and network movies can probably dissuade the vast majority of netizens.
It is not that there is a tendency to discriminate against them, after all, for so many years, the boutique rate of domestic horror films and online movies is simply a gold rush in the sand, which disappoints the audience, forming a vicious circle of low cost to poor word-of-mouth and then returning to low cost, and naturally does not attract many big coffee actors to participate.
However, in the recently aired "Water Monster 2: Black Wood Forest", the performance of the female lead actress Wang Zhen'er was unexpectedly stunning, so much so that some people began to discuss whether she was the ceiling of the actress of the network movie.
"Water Monster 2: Black Wood Forest" tells the story of the female forensic doctor Qing Ling, who bravely breaks into the black wood forest of the forbidden land of the water monster, without fear of danger, and explores the mystery behind her brother's disappearance.
Obviously, this is a rare big female protagonist in the big movie on the Internet, and the heroine is definitely not the soft and powerless female image in the domestic horror film, who can only be at the mercy of fate. On the contrary, she is an extremely independent character who dares to go deep into the strange village with a shotgun in hand and find the truth behind the fog, and has a very charismatic personality.
In fact, such big female dramas have emerged in an endless stream in recent years, but they are too brilliant to put them in the big online movies. You know, limited by the cost problem, the vast majority of domestic network giants can not afford to hire big stars, can only find some actors who do not know how many lines.
Many of these actors are not eye-catching in appearance and acting, and actresses are the same plastic surgery face, in order to quickly attract the attention of the audience in a short period of time, they can only win attention by wearing revealing costumes and selling meat, after Pan Changjiang and Ding Haifeng starred in the Internet University "Wusong Blood Battle Lion Building" is a typical example.
And even if some actresses themselves have excellent conditions and good popularity, the time and energy they invest in starring in the internet are often confused. This year's highly criticized Internet University "Deadly Shark Beach" is a typical case, the heroine Zhao Yihuan has been famous for a long time, but when shooting this movie, in addition to the consistent show of body, there was no breakthrough.
The producer is very confused, and a few broken sampans are basically all props. The whole movie is full of cheapness, which also caused many investors who crowdfunded the film to jump on their feet and shouted.
In contrast, although the heroine in "Water Monster 2: Black Wood Forest" also wears a slim cheongsam that does not conform to the film environment, I believe that the audience can still feel the heroism displayed on her body. The overall production of the film can be seen that the producer still hopes to be able to dedicate a good work to the audience as much as possible.
In addition to temperament, the heroine's acting skills of "Water Monster 2: Black Wood Forest" are also remarkable. Whether it is the calm and self-determination when he first arrived in Shangshui Town and witnessed various strange customs, or the brave determination when he broke into the black wood forest of the forbidden land of water monsters, and the painful anger when he found that the water monkey was his closest relative, he was interpreted quite well by actor Wang Zhen'er.
Coupled with the mayor of the town who violates the yin and yang, the nine uncles with a gloomy face and a perverted face, and the actors who are not famous and have not bad acting skills, such as the godmother who is obviously trapped in the magic barrier, they have jointly brought an outstanding network movie to the audience.
The biggest contributor behind the female role is undoubtedly the actor Wang Zhen'er. Many netizens who do not pay attention to domestic film and television dramas may not have heard her name, and subconsciously think that she is an actor who is mixed in the network movie. But this is not the case, Wang Zhen'er came to shoot this "Water Monster 2: Black Wood Forest" but there is a suspicion of self-demotion.
Although she is not from a science class, her acting skills are not weak, and as early as 2013, she emerged through the role of Meng Xiaojun's Qingmei Zhu Ma Liangqin in "China Partner". After that, Wang Zhen'er successively starred in Li Huilan, a tragic character who suffered from domestic violence in "Memory Master", Lynch, a female police officer with a sense of justice in the blockbuster drama "Undocumented Crimes", and Awen in the web drama "Detective Chinatown", which was praised.
From the perspective of the entire story line of the web drama "Detective Chinatown", although each story will have a story heroine, the role of Awen is an important role that always runs next to the male protagonist Qiu Ze. From the scene and plot line, it can be called the actual heroine.
To some extent, Wang Zhen'er should target the well-known neutral beauty star Yu Nan, both of whom have a diversified performance style, which can not only perform a cool and heroic posture, but also make the audience feel afraid.
It is precisely because Wang Zhen'er's career resume is too stable, when she appears in the crew of "Water Monster 2: Black Wood Forest", she will form a dimensionality reduction blow to other internet actresses.
After experiencing the impact of the epidemic, many stars in the domestic film and television circle have encountered the dilemma of no drama to shoot, and the phenomenon of online streaming media of movies has also increased, which is an opportunity for the development of online movies. In the recently released "Tough Guy Gun God" also showed a good strength. Wang Zhen'er tested the water "Water Monster 2: Black Wood Forest" In addition to finding some opportunities, it is obvious that the script requirements of the network are not low.
Perhaps in the next few days, we will also see more outstanding acting actors entering the online blockbuster field, bringing wonderful performances to the audience and improving the overall quality of the network. At the same time, we also hope that Wang Zhen'er will not stop at the shallow taste of the network, but can find her new position through the relatively careful production of the network, and find more opportunities for her to better develop in the film and television circle.
