If we talk about the most popular ancient puppet drama in 2022, as of now, it should be " Menghualu ", right? The partnership of
Chen Xiao and Liu Yifei seems to be the reunion of Yang Guo and Xiao Longnu after their agreement in 16 years. This alone is enough to make the audience feel satisfied with the CP.
Putting aside the two leading actors, the performance of the supporting actors in the play cannot be said to be up to standard. It should be described as stunning.
Coupled with the superb looks of handsome men and beautiful women, it has been called the ceiling of ancient puppet dramas in recent years. Is there any reason not to pursue it?
01: Gu Qianfan - Chen Xiao, Zhao Pan'er - Liu Yifei
Chen Xiao's acting skills have been online, " The Legend of Lu Zhen ", " The Legend of the Condor Heroes ", " That Year the Flowers Bloomed and the Moon Was Full ", " The King of Land War " and other works of different styles, Chen Xiao has given each character a unique interpretation and charm.
Gu Qianfan, the "Living Hell" played by Chen Xiao in "Meng Hua Lu", is not afraid of traitors and has a righteous heart. Although he is decisive in killing, he is only tender and infatuated with Zhao Pan'er. Who wouldn’t love a character like
and such good looks? No wonder some netizens made heartbreaking confessions in the barrage: Chen Xiao, why did you get married?
Fairy sister Liu Yifei has been in the midst of controversial topics since her debut - she is beautiful but her acting skills are worrisome.
From Bai Xiuzhu of "The Golden Family", to Xiao Longnu in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", to Wang Yuyan in "Dragon", they are all cold-faced beauties who do not eat the fireworks of the world.
In "Meng Hua Lu", Zhao Pan'er, played by Liu Yifei, has a worldly atmosphere, loves money and face, and can cry and laugh. Such a role is still difficult for Liu Yifei.
What is gratifying is that Liu Yifei's performance in this drama is still remarkable. When I laugh, I look forward to it, and when I cry, there are pear blossoms and rain. Just for the lines, there is always a feeling that I can't take a breath.
02: Sun Sanniang - Liu Yan
When it comes to Liu Yan, people always forget her identity as a host, but think of two other words - sexy.
Liu Yan is indeed very sexy, with a curvy figure that is enviable, but her hard work and acting skills should not be ignored.
In order to treat his mother who was suffering from cancer, Liu Yan entered the entertainment industry by mistake after participating in the host competition in , and became an actor from the host.
Sun Sanniang, played by Liu Yan in "Meng Hua Lu", is eye-catching. This fierce, capable, brave and decisive beautiful cook is unwilling to succumb to feudal ethics and has the courage to pursue women's liberation. She is a real "iron lady".
Liu Yan's performance in the play is real and not exaggerated, and he is not acting for the sake of acting. Those red bloodshot eyes slapped the faces of so many so-called traffic stars with a background in majors.
03: Song Yinzhang - Lin Yun
Lin Yun is lucky. Since she starred in Xingye's " Mermaid " as a novice, her acting career has been quite smooth.
In "Meng Hua Lu", Lin Yun plays Song Yinzhang, a woman from Le Ji and the number one pipa master in Jiangnan.
But to be honest, Lin Yun's performance in "Meng Hua Lu" always felt that there was just a little bit missing.
Perhaps it was to express Song Yinzhang's youth and ignorance, or perhaps not to steal the scenes from Liu Yifei and Liu Yan. Lin Yun's eyes and mouth opened, which made the performance traces a bit heavy and the acting skills a little exaggerated.
However, we have to admit that Lin Yun did portray Song Yinzhang's gentle beauty, frailty, elegance and meekness very appropriately.
But at the same time, Lin Yun was also scolded for Song Yinzhang's love brain. He hopes that in the subsequent plot, he can get rid of his love brain and become a new woman like Zhao Pan'er and Sun Sanniang.
04: Ouyang Xu——Xu Haiqiao
Do you still remember the Emperor of the WorldMeng Xuanlang in "A Thousand Bones of Flowers"? And the Liu Xianglian in the new version of "Dream of Red Mansions"? These gentle and infatuated characters are all played by Xu Haiqiao.
Xu Haiqiao, who rarely plays a villain, plays the real scumbag Ouyang Xu in "Meng Hua Lu". When he was in trouble, he got help from Zhao Pan'er and made a marriage contract, but abandoned Zhao Pan'er after he won the top prize.
As the character becomes darker, Xu Haiqiao will definitely receive unkind curses from the audience. Xu Haiqiao didn't care about this, because the reason why he took the role of Ouyang Xu was entirely because the heroine was Liu Yifei.
Not only that, Xu Haiqiao also showed off everywhere that not only did he have Liu Yifei's WeChat account, but Liu Yifei also took the initiative to add him.
It seems that the charm of the goddess is unstoppable, and Xu Haiqiao also gave a wonderful performance in this drama.
05: Chi Yanei - Dai Xu
This man who has taken on all the funny parts of "Meng Hua Lu" is really loved by the audience. Every time you see him appear, it means there is a laugh.
He is infatuated with Zhang Haohao. He hangs around Zhang Haohao and blows rainbow farts every day, just like a dog licker.
He grew up in a pampered environment, loves to show off, and likes to tease people, but because his IQ is not online, he often steals the chicken but loses the rice.
Dai Xu was so anxious that he couldn't help but post on Weibo: "Why is it always me who gets hurt? What did I do wrong?"
From " Elite Lawyer " and " Ideal City " to " Ideal City " Dai Xu of "Meng Hua Lu" is moving forward steadily with his acting skills, and his era is yet to be completed.
05: Lei Jing—— Du Yuming
This old man without eyebrows is almost synonymous with villains.
In "Meng Hua Lu", he continues to fly on the road of villain as always, playing the role of Lei Jing, the leader of the Imperial City Division, which is chilling.
The last time I saw him, it was Hong Sixiang, the great master next to the Queen Mother in "Celebrating More Than Years". This character had a cold aura as soon as he appeared on the scene.
Among the professional villains, Du Yuming is reassuring. This veteran actor has the corner of his eyes and eyebrows, which represents professional and stable acting skills.
06: Yao Anlian - Qi Mu
When it comes to the name Yao Anlian, not many people know it, but when it comes to the roles he has played, I believe many people will suddenly realize that it is him! Not to mention
, he has appeared in many roles recently. Yao Anlian appears in "Heart Residence", " Rebel ", and " Good Days, Good Scenes Know the Geometry ".
The character Qi Mu he played in "Meng Hua Lu" is sinister and cunning. On the surface, he controls the imperial court, but in fact he just wants to use Gu Qianfan to get rid of Xiao Qinyan.
It's just that he hides it too deeply. I wonder when Gu Qianfan will be able to see through his true face?
07: Gao Hu - Yin Zhusheng
Another old actor who is famous but not popular.
From "The Twelve Hours of Chang'an", "The Wind Rises in Longxi" to "Menghua Lu", Yin Zhusheng, an experienced actor who has been in the industry for more than 30 years, still polishes each role as meticulously as reading rare words.
He has a wide range of dramas, and he can play both the pros and cons at his fingertips, without making the audience feel like they are in a drama at all.
Gao Kuan in "Meng Hua Lu", for the sake of his daughter's happiness, forcibly accepted Ouyang Xu, who was the most beautiful girl in high school, as his son-in-law, and made things difficult for Zhao Pan'er in every possible way, and even tried to be scornful of her. Fortunately, Gu Qianfan arrived in time, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous. .
In the struggle within the court, which faction does he belong to, and what will be the final outcome?
08: Yuan Tuntian - Liu Yajin, Mr. Zhuo Shi - Liu Wei
After these two appeared on the stage, they felt like they were in a drama for an instant, but they were quickly pulled back by the characters they played.
One is a former sketch actor, and the other is a former cross talk actor. The addition of two regular guests of the Spring Festival Gala is really a small surprise that "Menghua Lu" brings to the audience.
As half-faced diners, Yuan Tuntian and Mr. Zhuo Shi are dressed in slightly shabby clothes, showing the last bit of dignity of down-and-out literati. Especially Yuan Tuntian, played by Liu Yajin, can be seen to be poorer from the clothes he wears.
Although the two of them don't have many scenes, their performance is very eye-catching, especially Liu Yajin's iconic small eyes, which perfectly interprets the superiority and arty habits of Beijing citizens.
Any excellent film and television work is inseparable from the joint efforts of all people in front of and behind the scenes.
"Meng Hua Lu" from the screenwriter, director, photography, lighting, service staff and other behind-the-scenes staff to all the actors who appeared, all used an extremely serious and rigorous attitude to dedicate a visual feast to the audience.
Now that the series is halfway through, "Gu Pan CP" has turned from sweet to sad, the struggle in the court is extremely strange, and all kinds of people have revealed their true colors.
Can Gu Qianfan and Xiao Qinyan recognize each other? Where will their love for Zhao Paner go? Can they realize their ambitions?
Can Sun Sanniang and her son Zifang reunite again? Can Song Yinzhang, a love brain, find a real lover?
What kind of disturbance will Ouyang Xu, Gao Kuan, Qi Mu, Lei Jing and others create in their struggle in the court?
If you want to get all the answers, there is only one way - continue to watch the show!
