The domestic drama circle at the beginning of 2024 is a bit rolly.
First directed by Wong Kar-wai"Flowers".became popular all over the Internet, and also brought fire to "Stealing Hearts", which Jacky Cheung has not sung for many years; Immediately afterwards, Hunan Satellite TV's main sweet dramaOur TranslatorIt also gained a lot of popularity.
However, compared with the "high-profile appearance" of the first two, Zheng Xiaolong's new drama can be described as quite low-key.
There is almost no publicity, and it goes straight online-Scout Heroes
After watching a few episodes, Uncle Fan couldn't help but sigh that the show has made new tricks to the common war theme of "Resisting US Aggression and Aiding Korea", and the comments of netizens are also all praised!!
Take a closer look at this drama, insideThe real thingMany.
For example, the lineup, the director isZheng Xiaolong, one of the gold medal directors in China, from "Desire", to "Golden Wedding", and then to "The Legend of Zhen Huan", it can be said that he has never disappointed the audience.
Let's look at the starring lineup, powerful actorsLuo Jin, Ma Sichun, old drama bones Xing Jie, Song Jialun, all the acting skills**.
As forPlot, even less to worry about.
At the beginning, the service is highly restored, from the vehicle to the map, it is accurate.
In addition, during filming, the crew also strives to be realistic, and the actors focus on military training long before filming begins.
The shooting scene was filmed in the mountainous area of Chengde, Hebei Province, which has similar terrain, and it is so rigorous that the play starts with the special type of scout, and quietly spreads out the plot, paves it steady, and continues to be high-energy.
As for the highlights of this drama, Uncle Fan won't go into detail here.
This time, Uncle Fan wants to talk to you about the outstanding characters in the playQi Lu,and who he playedHuang Chengcheng
Actually,Qi Lu,This character just appeared and did not attract the attention of the audience at the first time, but after watching the play, I found that the most outstanding person in "Scout Hero" turned out to be this "Southern Little Potato" from Sichuan.
In particular, he staggered over the minefield with a gun in his hand, shouting all the way, "Run, the enemy is coming."
With his small words, philistine words, and the "mixed energy" that speaks Sichuan-style Mandarin, at first glance, he seems to be a little out of place with the volunteer soldiers around him.
Moreover, on the road of escorting the female soldiers of the art troupe, he has always acted as a "guardian", not a comrade-in-arms.
There is a detail, that is, the art troupe encountered a team of wounded soldiers on the way back to the division headquarters, and everyone was helping, even the female soldiersWen Jie, all took the initiative to lift the stretcher.
But Qi Lu didn't, but "Zhen Zhen has words" to say,"We are guards, and we are only responsible for their safety."
In just a few shots, the role of Qi Lu let everyone see his unlikable side.
There is no responsibility, it is slippery, and "self-interest" is heavier.
AbsolutelyHuang ChengchengThe rendition is also very vivid.
Especially in the face ofLiang Chen's "provocation", when he said that he was a "half-feather" soldier, the whole person's expression was unconvinced.
The posture of tilting his head and resisting emotions is enough to show the image of Qi Lu, a "soldier oil", to the fullest.
But if it is just an "oil", the role of Qi Lu will naturally not attract the audience.
Behind its out-of-tune,Superior reconnaissance capabilitiesIt was his first point that caught the attention of the audience.
Here I want to mention the background of Qi Lu's character.
In the play, Qi Lu has the title of "double soldier", this is because he used to be a soldier in the new 22nd Division of the New Sixth Army of the Kuomintang, and once went on an expedition to Burma with the army, fought with devils, and was a veteran of the Anti-Japanese War.
Later, after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, Qi Lu served as the squad leader of the reconnaissance squad of the newly formed 22nd Division of the New Sixth Army, and was captured in the Liaoshen Campaign, so he took the initiative to join the People's Liberation Army and became a soldier of the guard company of a division.
With the outbreak of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, he became a volunteer and entered the battlefield with the army.
Judging from this background, Qi Lu is not simple.
Entering the front line many times and being able to come back alive can explain a lot of things, not only that, but in the play he also has the title of "living map", skills such as map recognition and terrain discrimination at night are enough to make him a leader in the reconnaissance squad.
In the task of the reconnaissance team being ordered to blow up Wuyun Mountain and block the enemy, Qi Lu also showed a key role.
In the play, he deduced that the three regiments responsible for the broken should have all died based on the constant sound of gunfire, and guessed that the American tanks would arrive in half an hour at most.
In addition, when Liang Chen rescued the captured art troupe, he also used his battlefield experience to find the nearest way to the stronghold for the team, saving time.
Based on this, section chief Liang Chen admires Qi Lu.
But this role, at the beginning, still lacked the fearlessness and sense of mission of the volunteers.
And with such an opportunity to grow, the director used a piece of literary drama and gave it to Qi Lu.
For example, the passage where Liang Chen persuaded Qi Lu in the play is really "chewy".
Looking at how Liang Chen persuaded the other party, first of all, the former generously pointed out Qi Lu's advantages, especially the one that affirmed him, "three steps and one lying down, five steps and one concealment".
But Qi Lu knew himself, and when he saw that the section chief had something to say, he took the initiative to mention it"Section Chief, what you just said is trying to say that I am afraid of war? ”
So a story about"Fear of War and Self-Protection Definition".The drama officially began.
And this dialogue scene can be said to be quite important in the whole play.
It opens up another dimension of war to us, there is nothing wrong with protecting ourselves, but once it becomes "fear of war", the nature is completely different, this is a line, and this dialogue is to highlight this line.
At the same time, this passage undoubtedly raised Qi Lu's growth space as a volunteer soldier.
It's like what it says in the play"The fear of war is to protect oneself, regardless of the task, and the necessary protection of oneself is to complete the task".
These two are not the same.
And for Qi Lu, he is not afraid of war.
Therefore, showing the scars on his body, Qi Lu shouted, "I have never been cowardly, I am not a person who has no courage, and Lao Tzu is not a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death." ”
He just lacked a reason for "fighting for whom", and this reason, Liang Chen gave him, was "fighting for the ultimate peace".
Frankly speaking, this scene is a test of acting skills, because it not only requires the actors to have emotional changes, but also emotional outbursts.
Fortunately,Huang ChengchengVery well done.
From the luck of wanting to get through the trick at the beginning, to the joy of being recognized later, to the grievance of being questioned, the transformation of every expression is very suitable for the psychology of the characters.
Regarding the growth of the character, Huang Chengcheng also used expressions to show it in the follow-up plot.
For example, when Liang Chen led a group deep into the hinterland of the Black Panther Division, he prepared to report to the division headquarters on the radio several times, but the results were all noises.
The operator thought that the equipment was aging, but Qi Lu gave a different opinion, he thought that in the weather with a wide field of vision, our signal was very likely to be interfered with by the other party.
In the face of the run on his comrades-in-arms, Qi Lu did not give up as he did at the beginning, but was the squad leaderLi WanfuUnder the mediation, he chose to back down.
Afterwards, in the face of Li Wanfu's apology, Qi Lu was no longer laughing and playing tricks, but looked helpless and worried.
From these details, we as viewers can see itHuang ChengchengThe growth presented by playing Qi Lu.
He has both a brave side and an emotionally mixed side.
I will worry because my comrades are in distress, I will be proud of the trust of my comrades, and I will dare to sacrifice for the task.
Some netizens commented like this, Qi Lu played by Huang Chengcheng,It shows the spirit of the older generation who are not afraid of sacrifice.
Some netizens have commented that Qi Lu played by Huang Chengcheng has strong perseverance and is a very attentive interpretation.
Finally, let's talk a little bit moreHuang Chengcheng
For everyone, the impression of him is still Xiao Hu in "The Story of the Cooking Class 3";
Or the little ears in "New World";
and Chen Universe in "The Wind Blows in the Summer".
But what everyone doesn't know is that before he entered the screen, he had been acting in dramas for ten years.
He has always been in awe of acting, and he is willing to be a constant runner who cherishes all opportunities.
For example, before Chen Universe starred in "The Wind Blows in the Summer", Huang Chengcheng pondered every scene of his own scenes, especially the scenes after Chen Universe fell ill.
He not only uses weight loss to fit the image of the character, but even outside the play, he also substitutes himself as a terminal illness, and he doesn't want the audience to see traces of "pretending".
It is in this state of mind that the scene of Chen Universe's death has become a harvester for the audience's tears.
Especially the state of closing his eyes and tears quietly sliding down is very in line with the state of the character when he is dying, and it is this tear that makes the character of Chen Universe more complete.
Obviously, Huang Chengcheng understands acting and the audience.
He once said,"It's very dangerous for an actor to think about the audience when they are creating, and it proves that you are from the audience's point of view and not from the perspective of the play. ”
Therefore, in the early stage of "Scout Hero", he knew that Qi Lu at the beginning could not be liked by the audience, but this role needed him to present it like that, and at the same time, he also needed him to deduce the growth of the character.
Apparently, he did!
Especially the scene where Qi Lu sacrificed, in addition to the ideals and values of a soldier, the spirit and strength that overflowed his body were enough to make the audience's emotion for the role rise to the peak.
Only then did some viewers tearfully say, "I really don't want to see Qi Lu sacrifice!" ”
In general, whether it is from the plot itself or the performances of Qi Lu and others, the war drama "Scout Hero" at the beginning of the year is definitely a good drama worth chasing.
Here, we can see reconnaissance, rescue, surprise attacks and other tasks, as well as rock climbing, capture, camouflage and other wonderful scenes, and even feel the refreshing feeling of the constant use of enemies and enemies outside the battlefield, and truly reproduce the difficult years of that era.
And isn't this kind of war movie exactly what we want to see?
We all know that "the volunteers are great", but let's not forget that they are also a group of ordinary people, they are not born fearless, but carry everyone's vision and stand up.
It was they who used their sacrifices in exchange for today's prosperous world.
Always remember that they are the most honorable people!!
