Acting variety shows seem to be a stage for mentors to provide guidance to the actors, but in fact they are more like variety shows carefully planned to attract the attention of the audience.
Although the mentors in the show are all industry leaders, they guide the actors like spring breeze and rain, but the actors' minds are often not on how to improve their acting skills, but on how to create topics and get traffic with the help of the show. The audience can understand this phenomenon, but the entertainment industry is just pretending to be confused.
Taking the controversial "Infinite Transcendence Class" as an example, despite the poor reputation of the first season, the program team still launched the second season without giving up. Judging from the guest list, most of the celebrities have certain scandals and ** topics, obviously to increase the topicality and attention of the show.
However, despite the obvious intentions of the program team, the mentor lineup of the second season is still strong. Industry bignames such as Zhao Yazhi, Ye Tong, Leung Ka-fai, Tranquility and Hao Lei gathered together to provide valuable guidance to the actors.
Zhao Yazhi put away the tenderness of the "White Lady" and guided the actors with a soft and rigid evaluation style. She is not only serious and serious, but also warm-hearted to help the actors regain their confidence. Ye Tong is known for her gentle appearance and sharp eye, and she can often point out the problems of the actors.
Leung Ka-fai has won the respect of the actors with his gentle attitude and professional evaluation, and his humble and strange brain circuits have also added a lot of highlights to the show. Tranquility is the warm-hearted sister in the show, she can always make up for other mentors when they criticize the actors, and use "sweet words" to resolve the embarrassment. Although Hao Lei has relatively few award-winning works, her insight and point-to-point remarks in the entertainment industry make her unique among mentors.
Wu Zhenyu, he is outspoken, and he completely ignores the red tape of Vanity Fair.
He sharply commented on the performance, gained insight into human nature, and woke up the dreamer with a word. Even when he is silent, he is able to convey deep meaning through subtle expressions.
Zeng Zhiwei, a veteran who has been in the Hong Kong circle for many years, is witty and changeable.
He is both strong and soft, both majestic and approachable. Talking and laughing, the years passed, and every word he said was full of deep meaning.
The two are on the same stage, and their momentum is like a rainbow, which brings great pressure to the actors.
Some actors are nervous and lose their temper because of this, and their acting skills are revealed; Some withstood the pressure, played steadily, and won the applause of the audience.
Zhu Zixiao, who used to be an actor, is now widely known for selling chicken feet.
His appearance once again set off a heated discussion. Zeng Zhiwei believes that it is understandable for actors to bring goods for life, while Hao Lei has a different view. Although live broadcast has become Zhu Zixiao's main business, his passion for acting is still the same.
However, being away from the stage for a long time has led to a significant loss of his acting skills, and simple improvisational performances have become clumsy. Relying only on verbal promises without actual actions, it is difficult to regain the feeling of acting in the past.
Performing this bowl of soup, although everyone covets it, it is actually difficult to swallow.
Ji Lingchen, whose modeling career is declining, switched to Hao Lei's door to study acting hard, and finally got the opportunity to raise his eyebrows in the show after a few years. He performed the three stages of "I love you", with an exaggerated expression, and the tutor praised him, but the audience was embarrassed.
After five years of enduring humiliation and burden, he once broke out in front of the camera.
He dressed up decadently, concretized ** injury, was confused about why he was ridiculed, and only said a few words to clear up the entanglement with the previous relationship. After all, it is difficult to distinguish between feelings and opinions.
In this show, professional actors frequently hit a wall, but non-professional actors are favored by their mentors.
The new actor Jin Chao, although he was born in a short drama, has a play in his eyes under the camera, and Leung Jiahui can't help but praise his aura. And Xu Ruohan is even more talented, becoming an actor across disciplines, and under the guidance of Jackie Chan and his predecessors, he is radiant. She improvised with ease in the show, and Jackie Chan is really "discerning".
There is a flood of relationships in the film and television industry, and the same is true for variety shows. In "Infinite Transcendence Class 2", Xiang Zuo is particularly conspicuous as the second generation of stars.
As soon as he appeared, the atmosphere was tense. The mentors looked at each other, as if they were pondering how to phrase them so as not to offend Xiang Jia. Seeing this, Xiang Zuo took the initiative to perform the classic monologue of "The Death of Mozart" in an attempt to turn the situation around.
Wu Zhenyu patiently guided, but the effect was still unsatisfactory, and the performance was still stiff. Tranquility came forward to play a round and mentioned that Xiang Zuo's family was strict, but this does not seem to be directly related to the quality of his acting skills.
Tranquility mentioned his family history, causing Xiang Zuo's eyes to moisten and his voice choked.
The topic of the mentors shifted accordingly, focusing on the issue of the second generation of stars being bound by the aura of their parents.
In the eyes of capital, whether it is a superstar in the film industry or a proud backbone, it is ultimately a chess piece. That night, Xiang Zuo's status and sophistication were profoundly displayed.
Wang Qiang is also accused of being a related household of "Infinite Transcendence Class 2".
When he introduced himself, he candidly mentioned Er Dongsheng's appreciation.
When Wu Zhenyu guessed that he was Er Dongsheng's person, Er Dongsheng hurriedly clarified: He is not my cronies, just an actor I chose.
Wang Qiang also agreed: I was afraid that I would be said to be a relation, so I didn't dare to tell Er Dao that I came to participate in this show.
Xu Juncong was blunt, thinking that Wang Qiang was still immature in terms of human sophistication.
The mention of Er Dongsheng's name is out of respect, but it also puts the other party in an embarrassing situation, and it becomes tricky to evaluate his acting skills.
Wang Qiang's words were bold, fearless in the face of his predecessors, and he exuded sharpness.
Serenity compliments him on his photogenic face, which he accepts calmly and without modesty.
Zeng Zhiwei laughed at himself, "No one asked me to play a baby", and Wang Qiang responded wittily, "You can play a giant baby".
When planning his acting career for him, his sentence of "I don't like it" made Zeng Zhiwei speechless, showing a kind of "big deal not to mix in this circle".
Although Wang Qiang has been taking on the scene, his acting skills have been questioned. The audience accused him of having a backstage and being a resource café.
In the improvisation, he seemed to be procrastinating and boring, and failed to catch the scene thrown by Zeng Zhiwei.
Ye Tong pointed out sharply: his reaction and sensitivity are insufficient, as if he is acting in self-absorption.
As soon as Wang Qiang stepped into the showbiz, he co-starred with actress Zhou Dongyu in the movie "On the Balcony".
In the film, he played a confused teenager Zhang Yingying who grew up under the doting of his parents, but his acting skills seemed immature and embarrassing, and he failed to fully show the complexity of the role throughout the whole process.
In the variety show, he was appreciated by director Er Dongsheng and starred in the movie "The End of the Sea is the Prairie" in the mute character Namu Khan.
Compared to the younger actors, his performance is quite good, especially the emotions conveyed through his eyes, such as affection, stubbornness, and simple shyness, which are impressive.
However, when in the same frame as the drama bone Ma Su, his acting skills are more jerky and difficult to compete with.
Although he has a story in his eyes, he still needs to hone his acting skills and line skills, try more different roles, and converge his edge, and there is still a lot of potential to be tapped in the future.
