In the entertainment industry, although there is a saying that "dragons give birth to dragons, phoenixes give birth to phoenixes, and mice are born to make holes", this is not the case, because success does not depend entirely on individual talent.
Have you noticed that in today's TV dramas, you can always see some actors with poor looks and bad performances, and people can't help but complain?
After careful observation, I realized that these people actually came by relationship!
Marlon Brando once said, "Being an actor is not just a profession, but a state of mind." ”
Unfortunately, these celebrity clients don't have this inner pursuit, they just go for money or fame, not out of a genuine love for art or the audience.
Today I will reveal for you the six most typical "drama bastards".
The name Chen Feiyu must be familiar to everyone, he is the second son of director Chen Kaige and actor Chen Hong.
It is often said that "the little red depends on the popularity, and the big red depends on fate".
His father asked him to act in "Zhao's Orphan", a movie that brought together celebrities from all walks of life, and he was only 10 years old at the time, so he cooperated with A-list stars and became famous in one fell swoop.
Although he had many opportunities and was supported by his parents, his acting skills were never recognized and improved.
His facial paralysis expression in "Jiang Ye", his stiff lines in "The Best of Us", and his dull movements in "The Road to Awakening" all made the audience feel embarrassed and helpless.
Even on the Internet, he was jokingly called "Arthur who sits and talked" by netizens, meaning that he can only sit and talk.
Not only did he not get recognition from the audience, but he also didn't get praise from industry professionals.
A well-known director once expressed this opinion in an interview: "Chen Feiyu is an actor who is difficult to be stimulated, he lacks personality and charisma, and can only mechanically act according to the script and the director's requirements." ”
His nationality has also become the focus of questions from many netizens, in addition to acting skills. Born in the United States, he has American citizenship and grew up in the United States until he was 18 years old, realizing that there is limited room for development in the United States, so he returned to China.
The American actor acted in the patriotic movie "My Motherland", which aroused the doubts and dissatisfaction of many netizens. However, when everyone learned that the chief director of this movie was his father Chen Kaige, they suddenly realized.
When asked by reporters about his father's influence on him, he expressed his reluctance to be labeled as a "second-generation star", but at the same time admitted that his acting skills have not been improved.
On the contrary, he also frequently becomes the focus of negative news, such as intimate photos with Internet celebrities**, conflicts with fans, etc.
His image in public has been seriously damaged as a result.
As a star child whose acting skills are so bad that even the great director Chen Kaige can't improve, although he has a superior family background and conditions, he has not worked hard to learn and improve.
His future will be limited to messing around in the entertainment industry, as he can only rely on his parents' resources and attention.
When it comes to Wu Yuqing, maybe you don't know who he is. But if I told you that his father was the famous actor Wu Gang, that is, the one who played the "Secretary of Dakang", you would definitely know.
He majored in choreography and directing, and was born in 1996. Since childhood, he has aspired to be a great actor like Bruce Lee.
His performance is hard to praise.
He played the role of Gao Xiaochen, a rebellious "black second generation" in the hit crime drama "Hurricane" in 2023, which is the most well-known work he has ever participated in. However, his performance made the audience unable to immerse themselves in the plot, and even led to the occurrence of skipping scenes.
Wu Yuqing has the following problems with her acting skills in the movie "Hurricane":
He often uses exaggerated expressions, such as glaring and yelling, to show the character's anger and rebellion, but fails to truly convey the character's inner feelings and motivations. His expression looks deliberate and lacks the authenticity of the natural outpouring of emotion.
His body is stiff and does not show flexible and coordinated body language, either in action scenes or in rival scenes. His movements appear restrained and uncomfortable, lacking performance that conforms to the character's temperament and aura.
His acting lines are dull and lack a grasp of tone and rhythm. His lines appear monotonous and mechanical, failing to capture the character's characteristics and emotions.
Wu Yuqing's performance in "Hurricane" was very poor, which made people upset when they watched it, and these problems led to this situation.
Compared with other powerful actors, his performance is particularly inferior.
When he played against Zhang Songwen, Zhang Yi, Li Yitong and others, he was completely at a disadvantage.
In addition, Wu Yuqing's identity background has also caused many controversies.
He is believed by many to have relied on his father, Wu Gang, to continue to retain this role.
Some wonder if he really harbors acting dreams or is just acting casually to make money and become famous.
Wu Yuqing once criticized Li Yifeng's acting skills on Weibo as "so bad that it is useless to return to the furnace for processing", which caused some people to question his high self-esteem. In addition, he also sarcastically said that Lu Han "he is not a real man", so some people think that he is jealous, and some people think that he does not respect his predecessors.
He may have been influenced by Wu Gang, did this practice of "50 steps and 100 steps" originate from him?
Do you remember the actor who played the volunteer party Jenny in "The Emergency Doctor"? I think you'll have a lot to say when you mention her.
Her performance is so exaggerated that it seems that she will only show her emotions with a frown, and netizens commented that "it would be nice if she could have half of her mother's acting skills".
Yue Yien turned out to be the daughter of actress Yue Hong, she was nurtured by her mother since she was a child, and she always dreamed of being able to perform on stage.
Born in 1989, she graduated from Beijing Film Academy, majoring in directing. She had hoped that this major would be able to realize her dreams.
She has a plump dream, but she faces a skinny reality. After graduation, he joined the film and television industry, but the works he made were not only not well received, but caused complaints from the audience.
Her performance is incredible, both in expression and in her lines, which appear stiff and lacking in emotion and variety.
Yue Yien does not have a high reputation and reputation on the Internet, and her number of fans on social ** is scarce, and there are not many interactions and topics.
In the entertainment industry, who are her friends and partners, no one seems to be able to give a definite answer to this question. She seemed like a loner, supported by her mother.
And her evaluation on the Internet is also quite bad, and many netizens believe that the reason why she can appear in various works is completely dependent on her mother's relationship.
Even with her true strength and talent, she can't get these works, and some people even said on the Internet, "She is simply the king of ruining dramas", and they want to fast forward when they see her.
The roles she plays are usually very simple, mostly some cowardly and incompetent or infatuated little girls.
In the TV series "A Better Life", Jia Xiaoduo played by her is a typical representative. She plays the post-90s girl who accidentally falls in love with her uncle Xu Tian (played by Zhang Jiayi), but she doesn't know that he has heart disease and is facing a marriage crisis.
She often shows her love for him in a childish and persistent way, always pestering him, which makes him feel very distressed.
She has a lot of scenes in the play, but she failed to impress the audience, but was annoying.
Her image comes across as bland and unattractive.
Her appearance is mediocre, her appearance and temperament are very ordinary, and she has no features and highlights.
Her figure appears rounded and lacking in curves, and she has poor taste in dressing, often choosing outfits that don't fit or match well, giving her a rustic feel.
Although she has a superior family background and academic qualifications, she has not been able to make good use of these advantages to improve her quality and image.
Recently, Beijing Satellite TV released an anti-drug criminal investigation drama "Undercover Police Flower", in which Zou Yuanqing played the role of a female police officer who joined the police force.
From the very beginning, this drama revealed its bad movie nature: shaky cameras, loose and unfocused plots, and outdated and backward narrative techniques.
Zou Yuanqing's performance in the play also failed to get rid of the doomed fate of this bad drama.
She plays the role of Xia Hairong, a reckless and reckless anti-narcotics policeman who can't think and is not good at disguise.
She was unscathed, lying on the scene of catching the drug dealer, with bullets whizzing by.
She was then sent to infiltrate the drug trafficking gang, surprisingly smoothly integrating into the drug dealer's interior.
Under Zou Yuanqing's interpretation, this unreliable character seems even more absurd and ridiculous.
Seeing this, I can't help but say that it is not surprising that there are almost no people's evaluations of this drama on the Internet, and the so-called evaluations are all negative.
There are many people who commented: "This movie sucks, I can't watch it at all." Some people also questioned: "What qualifications does Zou Yuanqing have to play the heroine?" How can you let so many old drama bones cooperate with her? ”
Isn't the reason why she is so popular precisely because her mother is the famous star Yan Ni?
In order to enhance her daughter's popularity, Yan Ni deliberately arranged for her daughter to appear in many works, and also actively fought for many resources for her daughter, although she is an excellent actor herself.
Her appearance is ordinary, lacking the charm and affinity of a star, her expression is stiff and dull, and she has no personality and characteristics.
She did not demonstrate the basic qualities and abilities required of a qualified actor.
Zou Yuanqing had been criticized by the audience many times before this.
Zou Yuanqing was criticized by the audience for his interpretation of the role of Mai Siyuan in the TV series "Wind and Rain Sending Spring Back" starring Wang Zhiwen.
In the TV series "The Right Way to Open Your Life", starring Huang Bo, Zou Yuanqing's performance did not improve significantly, so he received the most complaints from the audience in the play.
Zou Yuanqing seems to be a young actor who continues to grow after graduating from school, but in reality, her performance is a big disappointment.
She failed to make a deep impression in both movies and TV series, and even became a burden to bad movies.
The background of his relationship is his elder brother "great director Guo Jingyu", which makes him different from those second-generation who rely on their parents, and is the last Yang Zhigang we discussed.
Born in 1977 into an artistic family, Yang Zhigang has been influenced by his older brother since he was a child and has always dreamed of becoming a big star. During his studies at Beijing Film Academy, he was in the same class as Yao Chen and Ling Xiaosu, but unlike them, he did not become a powerful actor.
Yang Zhigang was recommended by his brother after graduation to join the crew of "Fire Blue Blade", and the director arranged for him to play the role of Jiang Xiaoyu, who is poor and flamboyant.
His acting skills are too exaggerated, and netizens keep complaining. In the play, he always plays the role with a blank face, and often speaks lines unclearly.
He later publicly explained that he had suffered severe burns during filming, resulting in a coma for several days. His facial condition is similar to that of Hu Ge's car accident injuries. While this explanation seems plausible, it is not an excuse for poor acting.
Some directors even criticized his acting skills for being stereotyped, filming too much in his brother's hands, and there was no room for change.
Yang Zhigang doesn't seem to care about these criticisms, and even confidently believes that he is an excellent actor.
Yang Zhigang has never worried that he will lose his job opportunities and resources, because he has his brother Guo Jingyu as the owner and backer.
Perhaps he never realized that even a "relational household" needs to have enough strength and charm to support himself.
These connections not only took advantage of opportunities that should have belonged to truly talented actors, but also deeply disappointed a large number of viewers.
They lack self-awareness and don't work hard to improve their acting skills, but rely on relationships and face, ruining those TV series again and again.
Dragons give birth to dragons, phoenixes give birth to phoenixes, everyone should stand out on this stage with their own strength.
Please stop using your parents or others to show off, there is no need to do so.
We don't need to show respect and support for such actors.
If you don't have real strength and charisma, please leave the stage as soon as possible!
