Huang Lei , overturned.
This time, what tripped him up was nothing else but the acting skills that he was proud of and touted for many years.
Maybe he would never have thought that his "myth" would end with " County Party Committee Courtyard " as a hot search.
This drama can be said to be a star-studded . Huang Lei, Hu Ge, Wu Yue, Li Guangjie and many other actors together formed the group portrait show in the county party committee compound. Since its broadcast, the popularity, ratings and topic have remained high.
What just adds to the popularity of "County Party Committee Courtyard" is Huang Lei who plays Lu Qingshan, the secretary of the Guangming County Party Committee in the play.
The popularity and discussion of the entry "Huang Lei's County Party Committee Courtyard Acting" has always been high, but this time, instead of praising the veteran actor Huang Lei's performance in the play, everyone complained about Huang Lei's lack of leadership temperament and his performance being too dramatic .
Watching Huang Lei frown from time to time in the play, the audience complained that this was a " semi-permanent frown ".
I feel that Huang Lei lacks understanding of this role, because he doesn’t know how to express it with expressions, so he can only frown.
Seeing Huang Lei's loose walking posture when he went to the house of the demolished households at the beginning, the audience complained that Huang Lei " doesn't have the aura to be an official at all". In the scene where
goes to work in the house of a demolished household, everyone thinks that the actor who plays the demolished household is more like the county party committee secretary than Huang Lei.
Even when Huang Lei took a cup to drink water, the audience complained that his arms were too stiff and too strong, and his performance was too heavy..
In a word, the audience seems to think that something is wrong with Huang Lei, that something is going on, and the complaints have never stopped.
Logically speaking, Huang Lei is an old actor who has been around for a long time and has many excellent masterpieces. There is no doubt that he has the ability to portray the role of county party secretary well.
Otherwise, there is no way to explain the outstanding students who were taught by him.
01 Is it Huang Lei or Teacher Huang?
Why do you say that?
Some people may not be very clear. It can be said that Huang Lei is a typical example of reaching the peak of his career after his debut and having a smooth journey to stardom.
Huang Lei graduated from Beijing Film Academy's Performance Department. Due to his excellent performance, he began to work as a teaching assistant when he was an undergraduate. After graduating from his master's degree, he stayed at the school to teach .
At that time, he was only about 25 years old, and he could become a teacher for a group of students of similar age. His excellence is evident..
Huang Lei teaches many students who have made their debut, and many of them can be named in the entertainment industry.
Such as Hai Qing , Huang Haibo , Yao Chen , Du Chun , Huang Xiaolei, actor Tong Dawei 's wife Guan Yue , host Xie Na , his wife Sun Li and so on.
When Huang Lei was a teacher, although he was young, he was very majestic. All the students were afraid of him.
How afraid are you? Huang Duoduo’s eyes are very similar to Teacher Huang. When his students saw Duoduo later, they didn’t dare to look directly into Duoduo’s eyes, because they were too afraid .
When the class was first in class, as long as a student saw Teacher Huang walking towards the classroom, they would tell each other like mice seeing a cat.
Teacher Huang never calls names in class, because he knows that no one dares to not come to class.
Students must prepare all relevant things before class. If Teacher Huang does not see the prepared things, he will not say a word, will just turn around and leave..
I believe everyone can feel this sense of oppression by now.
Hai Qing once complained when he was on the show that no one could beat Teacher Huang in a battle of wits and courage. No one could be his opponent at all..
I cried when being scolded, and Teacher Huang forced herself to laugh. If she couldn't laugh, she wouldn't let her go.
Xie Na lost her admission ticket during the exam. Huang Lei’s first reaction after knowing about it was that you can lose your admission ticket, why don’t you lose it ?
The sense of oppression belonging to the teacher suddenly hit her face. Xie Na would always tremble a little when she saw Teacher Huang in the future.
Each and every one of these has left a deep shadow in the hearts of the students, so now the students still subconsciously take a detour when meeting Teacher Huang.
Because he became a teacher very early, Huang Lei has a high status in the entertainment industry. He can call Song Dandan " Changying " (Song Dandan's original name is Song Changying).
If you go by seniority, Huang Bo should call Teacher Huang " Master " because Huang Lei's students taught Huang Bo.
With all this information, Huang Lei’s status, popularity, and acting skills in the entertainment industry are definitely at the top level.
Obviously, the audience has never felt that Huang Lei is a drama before, so what is the reason for the negative reviews in "County Party Committee Courtyard"?
02 Top actors are attacked by variety shows
Over the years, Huang Lei has been participating in various variety shows.
was preceded by "Where Are We Going, Dad? ". He was an impeccable all-round dad in the show.
In " Extreme Challenge ", he is an old fox who is shrewd and calculating and good at preaching. With a turn of his shrewd eyes, he always seems to be trying to dig holes for the guests.
In " The Longing for Life ", he is the pyrotechnic patriarch and Chef Huang.
Huang Lei had a lot of fun when he was on the variety show, and the audience also enjoyed watching it.
But after participating in so many variety shows and then coming back to play a serious drama, he still played the role of a county party committee secretary, the audience felt a bit strange..
On the one hand, because he participated in too many variety shows, the audience has left a fixed impression of Huang Lei in their minds.
"County Party Committee Courtyard" At the beginning, Huang Lei, as secretary, went to work in the house of the demolished households. As soon as he sat down, Huang Lei picked up the teapot and poured a few glasses of water for his colleagues.
This was originally just a reasonable action to make the plot more life-like.
But because Huang Lei has participated in "Longing for Life" too many times, when the audience sees him pouring tea, they feel that he is still in "Longing for Life", just going to a farmer's house to drink tea..
always felt that he was going to show off his skills in the next second. He put on an apron and went to stir-fry for everyone .
Then everyone’s ears will immediately hear He Jiong’s words “ Oh my god, it’s so delicious”.
has pictures and sounds. It would be strange if there is no drama.
Some viewers who didn’t know much looked at the picture and asked: Are Hu Ge and Wang Xiao also participating in "Longing"?
As you can imagine, Huang Lei is already a complete variety show star in everyone's eyes.
Including some lines in "County Party Committee Courtyard" always make everyone dream back to "Ji Tiao". I feel that Huang Lei's tone when communicating with the demolished households is like the tone of digging holes for others when playing games..
When Huang Lei frowned and read the materials, everyone couldn't help but have an idea pop up in their minds. He was more like reading a game script in "The Ultimate".
As soon as I saw Huang Lei doing this or that in the play, I would automatically jump to the corresponding performance of Huang Lei in the variety show..
On the other hand, Huang Lei appears in popular national variety shows of phenomenal level, which is both a good thing and a bad thing.
The good thing is that he quickly gained popularity and the money came more conveniently and quickly. The bad thing is that the audience really knows what kind of person the real Huang Lei is.
In the episodes of "Extreme Challenge" and "Yearing" variety shows, the audience has long understood Huang Lei's character and temper.
Huang Lei, an all-round and multi-angle , has long been known to the audience.
Huang Lei’s personal image became so clear.
Logically speaking, a good actor can be anyone, and originally Huang Lei could be the same.
But he has shown everyone too much of his true self in life, so when he plays a character with a different personality, the audience will not buy it .
So many seasons of variety shows have caused Huang Lei to over-consume his professionalism as an actor and also eroded his reputation among the audience.
03 Anesthetized in the actor's comfort zone, without introspection
If you want to ask what other reasons make the audience feel that Huang Lei is too dramatic and unsuitable for this role, it is probably because of the highly homogeneous roles played by Huang Lei in recent years.
In " Xiao Huanxi ", Huang Lei plays the tolerant Buddhist father Fangyuan.
In " Little Separation ", Huang Lei plays Fang Yuan, the father who takes care of everything and has the biggest wife.
In " Xiao Minjia ", Huang Lei plays a middle-aged father who has been divorced and remarried.
In " Zhang Weiguo's Summer", Huang Lei plays another middle-aged Beijing man who "has nothing to do with the world."
These characters tend to be more or less homogeneous..
For example, middle-aged men and fathers are more or less gossipy and have some kind of midlife crisis. The backgrounds of the stories are somewhat similar.
This type of role formed Huang Lei's middle-aged comfort zone for filming, and he has never jumped out of this comfort zone.
These solidified images have formed a stereotype for the audience. As soon as the audience sees Huang Lei, they will think of these qualities. When they look at the serious county party committee secretary, of course they don't look like him.
An actor cannot always stay in his own comfort zone, and he cannot shape a mold. He just fits himself into it and cannot come out. This kind of behavior is actually the most "stupid" behavior.
For example, when talking about Haiqing, what is your first impression?
After playing the "Small Series", most people may think of the mother image.
Of course, this shows that Hai Qing has successfully shaped the role of mother, but it is also a restraint for her..
For example, someone may ask Haiqing to endorse laundry detergent and maternal and child products, because mothers always deal with these products.
But maybe no one will ask Hai Qing to endorse high-end jewelry, because it doesn’t fit well with the audience’s impression.
But Hai Qing is also brave enough to break through herself. Her " Hidden in Dust and Smoke " received very good reviews.
As a student of Huang Lei, Hai Qing knew that he had to break through the limitations. However, as a teacher, Huang Lei seemed to have forgotten this matter. Instead, he stayed in the comfort zone of an actor and used his "mystery" to crazily "wash" variety show pay.
As for actors frequently appearing in variety shows, well-known director Feng Xiaogang once said that actors are not encouraged to frequently appear in variety shows.
Because this will consume the actor's "mystery", and when the audience sees this actor again in movies or TV, they will feel that they are acting out.
A good actor should maintain a certain " aloofness " and even leave a certain blank space for the audience, so that the audience can more smoothly enter the role he plays.
This will be beneficial to the shaping of the character.
also played a role in "County Party Committee Courtyard", and no one said that Wang Xiao was in the drama.
This is because Wang Xiao is not only always trying new roles, such as Siming Xingjun, who is smooth-spoken and familiar with gossip in "三生三世十里桃花".
plays the bold, just and direct female boss Yang Ke in " Golden Years "; " Trident ht" "ml5" plays the role of Lin Nan, the leader of the economic investigation detachment who does not trust people but does not use them...
Wang Xiao's character image has never been repetitive or close, which is why he has always been able to make the audience get into the drama quickly.
In addition, Wang Xiao has maintained a sufficient sense of mystery in life. The audience does not know enough about the real Wang Xiao in life, which is why everyone recognizes the role played by Wang Xiao highly.
Exactly these two, Huang Lei failed to achieve , no wonder the audience did not buy his account.
Of course, some viewers feel that Huang Lei's performance in the play is good, those who say it is too much are just nitpicking.
Then again, no matter whether the audience is too picky or not, actors just need the majority of the audience to buy it.
This kind of buy-in may be reflected in ratings , or it may be reflected in word-of-mouth . If there is neither, then there is a problem.
"County Party Committee Courtyard" has high ratings because of its attribute bonus such as "Noon Sunshine, Twenty Great Gifts Drama", etc., which actually does not have much to do with Huang Lei.
After all, Huang Lei is just one of many well-known actors.
However, there are negative reviews for "County Party Committee Courtyard", and many of them come from discussions about Huang Lei.
I can only say that if an actor’s performance is not praised by the audience, then most of the time the actor will fail, because he did not satisfy his audience .
So frankly speaking, Huang Lei may have to rethink his position in the entertainment industry, and it is time to give up the entertainment industry.
Otherwise, "Huang Lei" and "actor" , these two words may become farther and farther apart.
