Family ethics drama, the former ace of national dramas, has become more and more declining in recent years. No matter how you shoot it, you can't shoot it well, and the ratings and word-of-mouth have been declining. works such as "Fireworks", "Little Days", "Old Guy" and other works thought that they had captured the "password" that the audience liked the plot of dog blood, but they turned out to be outrageously bloody, the popularity was bleak, and the reputation plummeted. What's going on here?
It turned out that in the early years, the audience still had a little appreciation for the bloody episodes of family ethics dramas, and they always felt that the plot was bizarre and interesting. However, the audience's aesthetics are becoming more and more elegant, and they are tired of the old-fashioned bloody scenes and exaggerated acting skills, and they require the drama to be closer to real life. You see, family dramas such as "Little Huanxi" and "It's All Good", which have been in the limelight in recent years, although the plots are realistic and ordinary, they are delicate and fascinating, which is why they are so popular. No wonder those self-righteous bloody dramas hit the streets like this.
Therefore, if family ethics dramas want to get out of the downturn, the key is to keep up with the changes in the audience's aesthetics, and they can't be the same old-fashioned bloody bridge. You have to write a story that resonates with the audience, and the actors' acting skills must be natural and sincere in order to impress these "picky" audiences. It seems that Tencent Video's new "Good Reunion" may be an opportunity?
The plot of the new drama "Good Reunion" can be described as quite interesting. The whole play revolves around the three sisters of the Xiang family, each of whom has encountered their own life difficulties, which makes people worry when they watch it.
The eldest daughter married her husband with a doctor, and she lived a happy life and had a successful career, but there was a situation in her married life. It's strange to say that the relationship between the two is so good, but the man secretly cheated and broke his heart. Seeing that her well-managed happy marriage is so shattered, where should she go? Looking at it really makes people cry of sympathy for her.
The second daughter Xiangzhong is actually not easy, marrying a mediocre little clerk, and she is a very self-motivated strong woman. But there is a tiger in his heart, but it is difficult to move forward, so he simply dumped his husband and worked hard for his career. However, it's always a bit pitiful to be alone, right?
The youngest Xiangnan married a rich second generation, and watched his life of being held back, and even the studio was opened by his boyfriend. If you want me to say, how can she be such a young and beautiful girl so willing to be a plaything? It's a pity that she's in the prime of her life.
The three sisters have their own troubles, which can be described as a variety of life. However, the crew intends to resonate with everyone, so that we can find our own shadow in these real life dilemmas. Let's wait and see how the three sisters will save themselves!
The success of a good drama is inseparable from an excellent cast. And "Good Reunion" can be said to have done enough homework in this regard, and it can really be called a group blockbuster!
Let's talk about the old drama bone Ding Yongdai first, he plays the kind and kind Xiang Zhijun, the head of the Xiang family, in the play. It can be seen in the trailer that Ding Yongdai interprets the joy of this "empty nest old father" to Entry. As the head of the family, Xiang Zhijun dotes on his three daughters in every way, which is the most warm and intimate color in the play.
However, the play is not all joyful, Liu Jia's wife Jiang Zhi is a grumpy old woman! In the trailer, she hates and scolds her husband with iron and steel, she is simply a living Hades. Liu Jia's acting skills have always been good, and I believe she will be able to interpret this nagging wife vividly.
And the one who provoked the main beam of the whole drama was the actress Bai Baihe. She will play the heroine in the play, a strong urban woman with a successful career. Bai Baihe has always been known as a powerful faction, and I believe that she will definitely be able to control this challenging role.
In addition to the female lead, the supporting cast is equally strong. Jiang Hongbin, played by Yu Jinwei, is simply a control freak of "the scourge of a thousand years", and it is so piercing to see him wrap his little daughter southward in the palm of his hand. However, Yu Jinwei has always been a powerful person with a broad acting path, and I believe he will be able to interpret this villain well.
As for Xiang Zhong played by Li Chun, he is the one closest to the lives of ordinary audiences. As an ordinary and courageous working woman, I believe that Li Chun will use solid acting skills to let the audience see Xiang Zhong's own shadow.
This strong cast will definitely make the family ethics drama "Good Reunion" a big hit! The powerful factions join hands to play on the same stage, and it is guaranteed that the audience will be addicted. Whether the drama can get a good reputation at that time depends on the performance of these actors!
The core of this drama "Good Reunion", to put it bluntly, revolves around the two main lines of women's growth and family warmth.
Let's talk about the line of women's growth first. Each of the three sisters in the play has encountered different life difficulties, such as the eldest sister Xiangqian's marital life problems, the second sister Xiangzhong is anxious about ordinary life, and the younger sister Xiangnan is controlled by her boyfriend to live freely. It can be said that each of them has encountered different obstacles on the road to growth, and they need to overcome and break through. Through the different situations of the three sisters, the play wants to express the confusion and struggles faced by contemporary urban women in marriage, family and career development.
As for the line of family warmth, it is reflected in the kind parents of the family. Especially the pillar of the family, Grandpa Xiang Zhijun, is 100% supportive of his three daughters, no matter what decisions they make or what difficulties they encounter, he will never give up, give warmth and strength. From here we can see that the meaning of family is not to bind and constrain, but to provide a warm haven for the family. So this drama also wants to convey a humanized family warmth.
Combining these two main lines, the core of the play is tantamount to throwing such a proposition to the audience: in modern society, how can women find a balance between family and career? And how to make the family a greenhouse to support your own growth? I really don't know what kind of answers the crew will give to these questions, let's wait and see!
To be honest, judging from the plot, the family conflicts and dilemmas encountered by the three sisters in "Good Reunion" are indeed quite bloody. The eldest sister suffered an extramarital affair, the second sister was abandoned by her husband, and the younger sister was controlled by her boyfriend.
However, the crew doesn't seem to want to make a simple family bloody drama, but wants to truly reflect the dilemmas faced by modern urban women in their families and careers through these bloody episodes. For example, the eldest sister is moving forward, has a successful career and a happy family, but there are problems in her married life, which is not uncommon in real life. The second sister struggles to move forward but always feels that life is too ordinary, and the third sister is controlled by her boyfriend to live freely, which are all problems that contemporary women often encounter.
Therefore, the crew actually wants to portray the anxiety and confusion of some women in reality through the appearance of dog blood. Through the different life circumstances of the three sisters, it arouses the audience's own resonance and thinking. In the end, how they got out of their respective family predicaments, and how they found a balance between career and family, this is the focus of the crew's discussion.
It can be said that "Good Reunion" is not blindly catering to the public's aesthetics to make a bloody drama, but hopes to use the dog blood shell to open up all kinds of troubles of women in real life. As long as it is handled properly, it will definitely arouse strong emotional resonance from the audience and let everyone see their own shadow in the play. After all, everyone has encountered difficulties on the road of family and career, and everyone has been confused about their lives. I believe that as long as "Good Reunion" can sincerely present these predicaments, it will definitely trigger a wide range of social repercussions.
