These "old drama bones" are actually "fake drama bones" with mediocre acting skills!
Many netizens questioned that some old artists were touted as "old drama bones", but in fact, their acting skills were mediocre.
As senior artists in the entertainment industry, they should have superb acting skills and high professional ethics, but some of them are really not worthy of the name.
Zhang Tielin
In 1998, Zhang Tielin became famous with the role of Qianlong in the TV series "Huan Zhu Gege", and began to be sought after and loved by the audience.
However, with the vanity and blind confidence brought by fame and fortune, he also unknowingly lost himself and was corrupted by this entertainment industry that shines brighter than the stars.
After "Huan Zhu Gege", Zhang Tielin starred in many fashion costume dramas, such as "Iron Tooth Copper Tooth Ji Xiaolan" and "Iron General A Gui" and so on.
But to the audience's disappointment, his performances in these plays are completely stuck in the mode in "Huan Zhu Gege", all the emperor characters are facetious, the movements are exaggerated, and the exaggeration is everywhere.
Even in the face of different roles and plots, he still goes his own way, habitually widening his eyes and blowing his beard, as if this is the "golden signboard" of his acting skills.
In 2003, Zhang Tielin still used cliché performance methods in his first non-emperor drama "The Legend of Relying on the Sky and Slaying the Dragon", and could not enter the role at all.
The audience sweated on their foreheads when they saw it, and they all lamented the clumsy of his acting skills.
According to the analysis of senior film critics, this proves that Zhang Tielin only has superficial surface skills, but there is almost nothing in the understanding and portrayal of his inner world.
Living in the imaginary space of the "emperor" he has created for many years has become an insurmountable psychological barrier.
In fact, as early as when "Huan Zhu Gege" was red in half the sky, Zhang Tielin had already revealed his incorrigible inferiority. According to other actors in the crew, Zhang Tielin had developed the bad habit of being late when filming this play.
Sometimes it is common for the whole group to wait for him alone for an hour or two.
Even if he was ridiculed in person by fellow actor Wang Gang, he had no remorse. This has foreshadowed all kinds of irresponsible performances that Zhang Tielin will show in his life in the future.
In 1997, Zhang Tielin renounced his Chinese nationality and immigrated to the United Kingdom. When the reporter asked the reason, he answered justifiably that it was for the convenience of life.
Such a move undoubtedly made him a Chinese artist full of criticism. What is even more difficult to understand is that Zhang Tielin always emphasizes that he is a Chinese in public, and the contradiction of nationality identity undoubtedly hits his image score.
In addition, Zhang Tielin's private life is also notoriously chaotic. He has a total of 4 wives, but has never maintained a long-term stable relationship with any of them, and his girlfriends come and go.
According to his ex-girlfriend, Zhang Tielin didn't even admit his daughter, let alone pay child support. These negative news completely destroyed Zhang Tielin's image in the eyes of the public.
Today, the former "national actor" has become a rat on the street that everyone shouts at, which is really self-inflicted.
Jin Dong
Jin Dong can be said to be the most popular "uncle" in today's entertainment industry, since he became popular with "Wenzhou Family" in 2014, he has gradually created a mature and stable male image, which is deeply loved by middle-aged female audiences.
In the following years, Jin Dong selectively took on a number of business war dramas, uniquely portraying the image of a "successful man". This undoubtedly brought him higher popularity and popularity.
However, as such productions pile up year after year, audiences and critics begin to question whether Jin Dong has fallen into a stereotypical acting pattern.
Whether it's his speech and mannerisms or his dress, each of his business elite roles is very similar.
Some commentators believe that the audience can easily guess what kind of character he plays. The homogenization of this performance also led to a gradual decline in his charm.
In fact, when Jin Dong created some supporting roles in the early days, his performance was still relatively rich and diverse. He is able to accurately grasp the characteristics of different characters.
But with the consolidation of the business war film route, he seems to have fallen into a comfort zone of "successful character", and his performance is also superficial.
Some insiders pointed out that if Jin Dong wants to break through the current predicament, he needs to jump out of the framework of this "type man", broaden the drama path, and try different types of roles.
Only by constantly trying new things can we avoid being bound by fixed personalities and let the audience see more possibilities. Of course, this also requires the support and space of the producer.
In any case, the "type" will eventually make the actor lose the freedom and passion of acting. I hope that Jin Dong can seriously reflect on his development direction and bring more surprises to the audience.
Liu tao
Liu Tao has more than 20 years of acting experience in the film and television industry since his debut. She has shown outstanding performance strength in many film and television works, and has created many classic roles loved by the audience.
For example, in the TV series "Dragon Babu", which swept the country in 2003, Liu Tao brilliantly performed the role of Murong Fu, a female villain who was scheming and extremely deep in the city, showing excellent modeling expression ability and shrewd and strong acting skills in introspection.
This also made Liu Tao jump from an unknown actor to a popular star.
Since then, Liu Tao has successively played the heroine in film and television works such as "Qingyunzhi" and "Mazu", and her calm and restrained acting skills without losing charm have been welcomed by the audience.
Especially in the hit urban light comedy "Ode to Joy" in 2011, Liu Tao successfully created the role of the career-oriented strong woman "Andy".
The inspirational struggle and frank and cute character traits deeply moved the audience, and also made this drama achieve a very high reputation and ratings, and the role of "Andy" is regarded as one of the masterpieces of Liu Tao's acting career.
But in the following years, the script and characters chosen by Liu Tao seemed to fall into a certain pattern, and it was difficult to break through himself.
In works such as "The Beginning" and "County Party Committee Compound", the female roles she performed are relatively single, not rich and three-dimensional in the early stage, and not as bright as the role of "Andy".
In recent years, Liu Tao's works have had an uneven reputation, and her acting skills seem to be facing bottlenecks.
Ni Dahong
Ni Dahong, a veteran actor, graduated from the acting department of the China Academy of Opera. The actors trained by the academy have solid acting skills, but his acting road is full of ups and downs.
Due to the facial features of the innate "anxious face", he has long played some tricks and extras.
After years of rushing, he finally ushered in the first opportunity to break out in acting skills in 2007 - the wonderful performance of Yan Song in the costume drama "Daming Dynasty 1566", which made Ni Dahong well-known.
However, the greater opportunity will not be 12 years from now. In the hit urban drama "All Very Good" in 2019, Ni Dahong played the actor Liu Qi's mean father Su Daqiang just right.
Let the audience hate itchy teeth, but also lose the love behind his strictness, this superb performance made him famous and won the best actor in a film and television drama that year.
But the good times did not last long, and in the works after "All Very Good", Ni Dahong's performance regressed significantly. He began to be expressionless, and no matter what role he played, he entered the so-called "facial paralysis mode".
In the hit "Crazy" some time ago, the villain Uncle Tai played by Ni Dahong is very woody, and he is completely unable to play an underworld character with a deep city and many ups and downs.
This also became one of the biggest failures of the show, which was complained about by countless audiences.
The reason is that after the great success of "All Very Good", Ni Dahong seems to have fallen into self-limitation, defining himself in the role of Su Daqiang, always repeating similar performance patterns without continuing to break through the boundaries of acting.
epilogue
We should not blindly pursue the so-called "old drama bones", but should judge the real acting skills by their works.
A good actor should not stop at past achievements, but should keep improving.
At the same time, we should not be too surprised in the conditions, the most important thing is the inner cultivation.
However, in this traffic-oriented era, it seems that it is becoming more and more difficult to define who is the really good "old drama bone".
Such confusion may be an unavoidable problem in the development of the entertainment industry.
What should we think about all this? It is up to everyone to think for themselves and give their own answers.
