"Shangyang Fu" has been criticized for being too old, so why not use younger actors?

The large-scale costume drama "Shangyang Fu" starring Zhang Ziyi and Zhou Yiwei has been on the air for a long time and is about to end.

However, during the broadcast of this drama, the audience received mixed reviews, and the Douban score also went up and down.

Those who support this drama believe that "Shangyang Fu" has no problems with its acting style and acting skills, and it is a rare good drama; while those who complain about this drama believe that "Shangyang Fu" is a good drama. This is a Mary Sue idol drama where the entire cast is pretending to be young, especially the 15-year-old Shangyang Princess played by Zhang Ziyi, who deliberately pouted and pretended to be a girl, which was really annoying. Moreover, Zhang Ziyi has a sharp appearance, and coupled with her age, she cannot play the role of a girl at all.

In fact, viewers who have watched the show can tell that the actors in "Shangyang Fu" are indeed older. They are basically between 40 and 50 years old, and some are already over 60 years old ( Zhao Yazhi is 68 years old). The youngest ones are probably Liu Yun and the male protagonist Yiwei Yi, but their 39 years are really not young.

There is indeed no big problem with the acting skills of the actors in this drama. After all, they are all veteran actors, but a group of actors and actresses who are obviously middle-aged really cannot make the audience think of the actual age of the characters in the drama. Just like the comments on the Internet: The heroine played by Zhang Ziyi is acting coquettishly with the emperor's uncle. Those who don't understand the plot think that the beloved concubine is flirting with the emperor...

Of course, some people think that age is not a problem, anyway, these days The lead actor is not ugly either, just can watch it.

However, the plot of "Shangyang Fu" also has "problems". After watching the first few episodes, the routine of "a heroine drama" came to mind: the heroine must not be with her childhood sweetheart, she must Marrying a male protagonist she doesn't love, the heroine and the hero will definitely be in love for a long time...

In the past few years, dramas with big female protagonists have appeared together, and the audience has become tired of watching and familiar with it. At this time, "Shangyang Fu" seems to be very average. To be honest, if it weren't for the support of acting talents like Zhang Ziyi, this drama would definitely be broadcast without any splash.

But "Shangyang Fu" also has merits, such as the actors' acting skills when they are not pretending to be young, such as Fu Hua Dao.

When talking about Fu Hua Dao, we should not mention the issue of why this drama does not use young actors.

Many people on the Internet have made suggestions: Wouldn't it be better to let a young actor play the heroine's teenage years, and then have Zhang Ziyi play the role after her wedding?

But everyone will not think so after watching the production team of "Shangyang Fu".

The director of "Shangyang Fu" is Hou Yong. He was a photographer before and later became a director. His representative works include "Jasmine Blooms"; the photographer is the photographer of the movie "The Grandmaster"; the stylist It is the art master Tim Yip, whose representative works include "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon"; the art director is Han Zhong. His representative works include "Hero" and "House of Flying Daggers". The heroines of all the above-mentioned movies are Zhang Ziyi, so "Shangyang Fu" is the "gathering of Zhang Ziyi's connections and resources over the years". With these people in charge, there will definitely be no problem in serving Hua Dao, and it will also surpass other costume dramas. cut.

At the same time, the production company of "Shangyang Fu" is Kashgar Feibao Media Co., Ltd., and Zhang Ziyi is a shareholder.

So, "Shangyang Fu" is completely Zhang Ziyi's own "territory". She can act as young as she wants, and whoever she wants to act can act. The male protagonist Xiao Qi is played by Zhou Yiwei. He is a capable person trained by Zhang Ziyi in "The Birth of an Actor". However, Zhou has been too greasy in the past two years. Coupled with the incident of him drinking a cup of milk tea with his assistant, his popularity is not very good. The male protagonist Xiao Qi persuaded a group of people to quit. The maid is played by Liu Yun, whom she met on the show, and the other actors are also Zhang Ziyi's acquaintances and friends depending on their age.

How can outsiders be allowed to "get a share of the pie" at this time!

A young actor looks for an unknown person. Isn’t such a good production team "promoting" for others? Looking for a famous person, but he is afraid of stealing his own limelight, so he "reluctantly" works on his own. .

"Shangyang Fu" is Zhang Ziyi's own "TV drama game", and it is a money-making game. It took three years to air the drama, and several names were changed before settling on "Shangyang Fu". Missed the best time to air a heroine drama. But think about the costume idol dramas of the past few years. At least the male and female protagonists are Yang Mi, Zhao Liying, Li Yifeng, and Yang Yang. The men are handsome and the women are beautiful. "Shangyang Fu" may not be able to please them.

The movie market has been getting worse and worse in the past two years, and so has Zhang Ziyi. The last good movie was "The Grandmaster", and the rest are basically mediocre. No wonder she wants to participate in variety shows and idol dramas, all for the sake of it. Benefits and fame are not as good as the money you earn.

I don’t know what Zhang Ziyi said on a variety show: "Why would an actor play a role that he is not suitable for?" No!

In short, "Shangyang Fu" is not worthy of the power and strategy, and cannot afford to serve the Tao. The most important thing in a TV series is the content of the story, not the bells and whistles. Only bad dramas can boast of "excellent service."

"Shangyang Fu" is really a 6-point score, no more.
