The film and television drama market in 2023 will be highly competitive. The ancient puppet dramas "Sauvignon Blanc" and "Lotus Building" stood out and gained word-of-mouth and ratings. But compared with ancient puppet dramas, the current puppet market is a bit bleak. The current puppet works of 7 top men either have word-of-mouth and are not viewed, or there are ratings without word-of-mouth, which is very bleak.
Xiao Zhan
He is the undisputed top-notch. 2023 will be the year of the outbreak of Xiao Zhan's works, with a total of three works broadcast, including ancient puppets, modern puppets, and period dramas. Among the three works, the ancient puppet drama "Jade Bone Yao" is a hit, and now the puppet drama "The Sun Accompanies Me" is seriously on the street.
"The Sun Accompanies Me" starring Xiao Zhan and Bai Baihe, and the TV series was very much anticipated by netizens before it was broadcast. But after the broadcast, there was a feeling that I couldn't bear to look at it directly. There is no problem with the two leading actors, the problem appears in the plot that is too old and even a little bloody.
In the subplot of the play, the picture of the heroine's friend and the heroine's ex-husband you and me is a typical "loveism". But this kind of plot can really make people feel the beauty of love, isn't it really bloody?
"The Sun Stays with Me" was high-profile before the broadcast, and it hit the street quietly after the broadcast. There are very few entries on the Internet about the plot of this TV series. But the score of "Sun with Me" is not low, 72 points.
Ren Jialun
is also a work that no one cares about after it is broadcast, as well as Ren Jialun's "Twilight Heart", which has a Douban score of 53 points. With the two works of "Zhou Shengru" and "One Life", Ren Jialun has gained word of mouth and secured the position of a first-line top male star.
But after these two works, he seems to have hit a bottleneck. Several of the works that aired were not satisfactory. In particular, the current puppet works "Don't Say Goodbye", "Miss Crow and Mr. Lizard", "Please Jun", etc., failed to make a splash. This is even more true of "Twilight Heart", which will be broadcast in 2023.
But judging from the current situation, no matter what the word-of-mouth ratings of this work are, it is already very lucky to be broadcast first, and it may sink into the sea a few months later. From this point of view, Ren Jialun and the drama party should be very happy.
Cheng Yi
South Wind Knows My Mind" starring Cheng Yi and Zhang Yuxi. It is Cheng Yi's first puppet drama filmed after the fire of "Liuli", and it is highly anticipated when filming starts. But for some reason, after the filming of "South Wind Knows My Mind" was completed, it was not broadcast for a long time.
The work cannot be broadcast in time, which actually has a great impact on the actors. Just imagine, if "South Wind Knows My Mind" could be broadcast as soon as possible, the blessing to Cheng Yi would be very great. But this work will not be broadcast until 2023. The TV series hit the street at the end, with a rating of 57 points.
Wang Hedi
During the broadcast of "Yulong", Wang Hedi was controversial. But a "Canglan Jue" made him one of the hottest actors in the summer of 2022. Wang Hedi was directly promoted to the top male class. After the explosion, Wang Hedi partnered with Bai Lu to star in the current puppet drama "Love as the Camp".
But "Love as a Camp" collapsed Wang Hedi's reputation. Some netizens did not recognize his acting skills, and some said that his original lines were not up to par. In short, "Camp with Love" did not give Wang Hedi any blessing, and it can even be said that the negative impact is greater.
The Douban score of "Love as a Camp" is only 42 points. The reason why word-of-mouth ratings are double hitting the street, the plot is the main factor. is obviously supposed to be a strong man and a strong woman, but "Love as a Camp" was made into a "brainless" romantic drama disguised by professionalism. It's reasonable that the audience doesn't buy it.
If Wang Hedi wants to continue to stabilize his top position, effective output of high-quality works is the king.
Yang Yang
The works mentioned above are all protagonists with high traffic, but the word-of-mouth ratings of the works are all on the street. The reputation of "Fireworks in My World" starring Yang Yang has reached the bottom, with a score of only 28 points, which is almost the highest among modern couples. But the word-of-mouth collapsed, but the ratings of the TV series were not low, and it unexpectedly became the annual hit of the broadcast platform.
The plot of "Fireworks in My World" has a big problem, which directly leads to the collapse of the reputation of the TV series. In order to shape the male protagonist and reflect the beauty of love, the TV series has made wrong demonstrations in all aspects.
Playing with a fire extinguisher in an underground parking lot and leaning on the door of a car while riding the subway sparked controversy after the broadcast. A number of official media, as well as relevant departments, have issued articles bluntly criticizing this kind of plot with false demonstrations.
In addition to the plot, Yang Yang's acting skills were also questioned again. But "Fireworks in My World" became popular with Wei Daxun, who played the male Nth Meng Yanchen in the play.
Because of this TV series, both the actors and the plot, are very discussed, and the enthusiasm of netizens for discussion remains high, and in the end it unexpectedly became a hit.
Gong Jun
After the top-notch Gong Jun became popular in "Mountains and Rivers Order", almost no work can get out of the circle. It can be said that it is a broadcast and a street fight. "I want to go against the wind" partners Zhong Chuxi. But the TV series started quietly and finished quietly, without making any splashes. However, the ratings of "I Want to Go Against the Wind" hit the streets, and the score is acceptable, 73 points.
Huang Jingyu
Huang Jingyu's situation is somewhat similar to Gong Jun's. His topics are also highly discussed, both in his works and in his private life. But there are very few works that can really get out of the circle.
"He Came from the Fire" is also a positive work about the life of a firefighter, with Huang Jingyu as the male protagonist and Zhang Jingyi as the female protagonist.
From the plot point of view, "He Came from the Fire" is much more positive than "Fireworks in My World", but in the end it still hit the street. It can only be said that the works with the same theme were broadcast at about the same time, and netizens were a little tired of watching it. The ratings of the TV series hit the street, but it gained word of mouth, with a Douban score of 72 points.
In 2023, almost all the puppet works of top male actors will hit the streets, but female stars will make strong masterpieces. After the broadcast of "Going to a Windy Place" starring Liu Yifei and Li Xian, the word-of-mouth ratings were bumper, and the Douban score was as high as 87 points.
The plot of "Going to a Windy Place" is light-hearted and pleasant, and the shooting shots are extremely beautiful. The TV series was even called by netizens as a Yunnan travel promotional film. This work is not only liked by domestic netizens, but also exported abroad. "Going to a Windy Place" also once again proved Liu Yifei's ability to resist dramas.
Actors, after all, rely on their works to speak. If you only have the identity of the top class, but there is no excellent output of film and television works, judging from the current situation in the entertainment industry, it is easy to be replaced. The actors improve their acting skills, the screenwriter puts down the suspended plot, and the current puppet market can still be expected.
