CCTV's latest "Youth in the Wind" has become a solid hit, before the TV series was launched, the trailer with ordinary texture actually made many viewers have no interest in this drama, but I didn't expect that there are really TV series that can be more exciting than the trailer.
According to the data, although "Youth in the Wind" was launched in the evening session, the ratings performance followed closely behind the TV series of the golden age, although the score did not break 1, but it has doubled the works in the same period behind him.
And the ratings are actually proof of quality, the feature film performance of "Youth in the Wind", the rhythm is high-energy, the plot is hilarious, and under the wonderful character building, it attracts many viewers into the pit so smartly.
Passionate youth, showing the charm of the retro era
The TV series "Youth in the Wind" tells the story of the youthful growth of the children of the oil field in the 90s, and the story unfolds between two generations, interpreting the hymn of the small people in the big era.
In the two episodes that premiered, the plot is so rich that each episode is full of highlights.
In the first episode, Cheng Miaomiao (played by Sun Qian) and Cheng Yaya had a tense relationship because of their parents' eccentricity, and Li Xi (played by Zhai Zilu) was criticized by the whole school for playing games in the game hall.
In the second episode, Hong Kong's return, from the adults' units to the children's campuses, began to prepare for the return of Hong Kong. However, due to Lee's cheating, the group violated school rules many times, and the students who were full of expectations were disqualified.
Don't look at the plot that focuses on the little things of youth, and all kinds of nostalgic pictures control the audience.
Not only that, "Youth in the Wind" is full of hilarious scenes.
The children ran away from home and wanted to go to Hong Kong for an adventure, and before they got out of the town, Li Xi was tossed with a face, not only that, but he was also caught by the teaching director.
The audience followed the daily life of the children and truly felt the vitality of youth. And the teenagers in the plot do what many people dare not do in adolescence, and when they interpret passionate youth, they also soothe the adolescent unease in the audience's hearts.
But then again, the elements of youth alone can't support the influence of this drama in the sinking market, the growth of children is the main line, but the adults are wonderful.
Even when the performance of the powerful supporting roles was too amazing, the protagonists of Sun Qian and Zhai Zilu, who played steadily, couldn't keep their aura.
The group portrait is wonderful, the supporting roles are eye-catching, but the protagonist is like playing soy sauce
Compared with Sun Qian and Zhai Zilu's interpretation, what really caught the audience's attention was the powerful supporting roles.
Cheng's mother played by Liu Lin, as soon as she went online, she showed her fiery and bright personality to this day, compared with the gray-faced and depressed fathers and mothers in other period dramas, Cheng's mother played by Liu Lin is called a full of spring.
In the plot, Cheng's mother scolded the child, and when she was out, she performed the hot-tempered mother with a fireworks, and when preparing for the show, Cheng's mother, who danced happily and confidently on the stage, was performed by Liu Lin with a strong vitality.
To be honest, Liu Lin, who is used to acting in bitter love scenes, looks really awkward with heavy makeup and sequins, but it is this awkwardness that is full of joy and makes the characters more vivid.
The Cheng family plays the role of Cheng's mother in the highlight play, and the Li family is the father Li played by Jia Bing.
There is a passage in the plot where Li Xi and his mother are talking about conditions, at this time Li's father is still sitting on the sofa with a calm face, but when he heard that Li Xi wanted money again, he stood up directly and kicked Li Xi on the back of the waist, and kicked Li Xi directly on the sofa, Li Xi was in pain.
Father Li charged his strength again, but he didn't expect that as soon as his legs were raised, he was dodged by Li Xian, and the old father with a handful of old bones just split a fork on the sofa, from the majesty of one second to the deflated face of the next second, Jia Bing's interpretation really made a serious and funny father perform a sense of contrast.
In this scene, actor Zhai Zilu's performance is actually very exciting, but it is overshadowed by Jia Bing.
There are many supporting roles that also surprise the audience, in the family group, there is one who sings blackface, and there is a whiteface.
Tian Yu and Zeng Li took on such a role, Tian Yu's father Cheng, every time his wife was out to the child, he hid aside and squeezed his eyebrows at the child, the wife is the big ancestor, the child is the little ancestor, although Tian Yu's line output is not much, but all kinds of small expressions are very rich.
In the shaping of Tian Yu, the image of the honest and honest injustice was established.
In contrast, Zeng Li's mother is not in such a humble situation, she really loves her son, during the rehearsal, one day Li Xi had a car accident, Li's mother climbed with a roll, jumped off the half-meter stage in high heels, and cried in front of the doctor like a heart-rending embarrassment.
The key is that Zeng Li is a well-known beauty, when did she go through the route of funny self-blackening on the screen, and now in "Youth in the Wind", Zeng Li can be regarded as stepping out of the comfort zone of a big beauty, and the down-to-earth period drama mother performed the effect that the audience couldn't help but hold their stomachs and laugh.
Not only that, Li Jiaqi, who does not have many scenes, is also eye-catching, she plays Xiao Fang is the director of the teaching office, not big, but full of majesty, twisting Li Shi's ears, it was she who pulled him out of the game hall, and she was the one who ran away from home when she bumped into Li Shi's group.
And Li Jiaqi in the plot really grasped the aura of a teaching director, speaking in front of the whole school, focusing on a confident middle foot, with a loud voice, when he saw Li Xian's face full of bags, Li Jiaqi was riding a bicycle in the picture, with an "unbelievable" expression, which was even more eye-catching.
Under the shaping of Li Jiaqi, when I saw Director Xiao, I had a kind of weakness in the heart of a mouse seeing a cat.
In addition to the above-mentioned actors, Li Naiwen and Huang Man, who do not have many roles, are also eye-catching, and the parents they play are much more emotionally stable than the first two groups.
But the more this kind of character without explosive points, the more difficult it is to perform the effect, when two parents have a dispute over their children in the plot. Huang Man, with a crying rage, pinched the mother's distress for her child, as well as the sensibility of the character's background, in contrast, Li Naiwen's father is calm and rational, and he will be speechless when he is tortured by the chickens and dogs at home to quarrel.
To be honest, as young and immature actors, Sun Qian and Zhai Zilu's performances are very exciting, but the powerful performances of the supporting roles are even better, in contrast, there is really nothing to do with the starring roles.
However, this also reflects the eye-catching portrayal of group portraits in the drama "Youth in the Wind".
At present, "Windward Youth" is still on the air, but the shaping of the actors, the development of the plot has laid the foundation for the popularity of this drama, as for whether "Windward Youth" can become a popular period drama again after "The World", we will wait and see.
