Poverty alleviation variety show goes to the countryside, my talent can no longer be hidden

Chapter 604: Demons vs. Gods

At 7:30 in the evening, the screening room of Jinghong Studio was brightly lit.

Almost all the employees were crowded in the room, with the table piled high with snacks and drinks. Everyone ate and chatted while waiting for the premiere of "The Disguiser".

"Here they come!" Someone suddenly shouted, and the room immediately became quiet. Dozens of pairs of eyes looked at the large screen mounted on the wall.

There is no theme song at the beginning. The tense pure music melody, combined with the editing of real historical images, explains the time background and place of the story in the shortest time.

In just a few minutes, there is almost no redundant frame, and the high information density is enough to make some directors waste an entire episode.

The director's skills are so strong that people are impressed.

The first episode officially opens with a group of vicious spies coming out together to search, intimidate, and arrest people...With the perfect camera position, a tense and murderous atmosphere almost overflows from the screen.

And when the camera turned to the boss of this gang of evil spies, the picture suddenly became pleasing to the eye - although he was wearing a modified gray-black Zhongshan suit, it could not hide Su Man's beauty at all.

She is a beauty with a strong complexion, and now with her exquisite makeup, she is so beautiful that people can't take their eyes off her.

But the series of plots that followed instantly turned people from being amazed to frowning.

This "Director Wang" of the Special High Technology Department could cross his legs and supervise torture without changing his expression, and could personally execute a row of "red suspects" without any expression...

In just five minutes, the image of a beautiful and vicious woman emerged.

The camera then turns to a café full of petty bourgeoisie atmosphere, where Ming Lou, with his slicked-back hair, is flirting with a pretty young girl. His magic tricks inherited from the Ming family cause the girl to scream in amazement...

Then, Ming Cheng, the third young master of the Ming family, appears. His ghostly actions and meticulous mind are clearly portrayed in just a few shots.

The nominal male protagonist Ming Tai was forced to appear last.

The handsome young master was also using his ancestral magic to tease a girl, but the one he was teasing was an underage little girl, and after that he didn't forget to blow her a kiss...

Charming, cynical... the image of the hero is outlined in the shortest possible length, without any unnecessary narration.

"This is Director Liu's true strength." Someone in the room couldn't help but say, "What the hell was that movie 'The Undocumented Crime' last year? You can tell at first glance that it wasn't his work."

"Hey, please don't criticize The Undocumented Crime. If Director Liu hadn't been forced into a rebellious mentality by this drama, would he have jumped ship and come to us? In fact, we should thank him!"

"That's right, hahaha..."

"Okay, stop talking and just watch the show quietly!"

…………

The first episode ends as Mingtai is taken to the Guo Party’s training camp and begins to receive inhumane agent training.

Compared with Liu Wei’s previous works, the first episode of "The Disguiser" is not that gripping, and it focuses more on showcasing the main characters of the show in a relatively smooth manner.

The plot is tepid and there is no particularly catchy hook. If it were any other crew, they would probably lose more than half of the audience in the first episode because it is really "boring".

But at this time, the excellent director and actors fully demonstrated their value - relying on the actors' personal performances and the director's superb skills, they eliminated the "dullness" of the first episode.

Although not many people praised this first episode, there were no complaints either, because there really wasn’t much to complain about. Among the main characters in this series, the most discussed character was neither the Nirvana in Fire 2 nor Guo Chen, who turned into a killer housewife, but… Su Man, who played Wang Manchun.

It’s not that the previous ones were not outstanding, it’s just that Su Man’s performance was a bit too dazzling.

The ones mentioned above have either already become very popular in "Langya Bang" or are already halfway to becoming the best actor. Everyone has already mentally prepared for their expectations.

However, most of the audience are still very unfamiliar with the name Su Man... After all, she had been honing her skills on the drama stage and had never hyped up any scandals to attract attention, so few people knew her at all.

As a result, this appearance now blinded everyone's eyes.

The first shining point is undoubtedly her appearance - bright and attractive face, extremely smooth figure, occasional charm flashing between her eyebrows... She is simply the perfect image of a queen!

The second highlight is her acting skills.

She proved with her actions that a good drama actor can indeed strike at a lower level when acting in a TV series...

As the director of a special high-tech department who is set to be a "femme fatale", her performance shows no signs of deliberate "blackening" or trying to show any viciousness, and she is in a very relaxed state throughout.

However, even in this relaxed state, she can always use an unintentional look, or a change in micro-expression and small movements to gradually show the viciousness of the character...

In almost all the rival scenes, the people around her are basically not on the same level as her...until she met Ming Lou, played by Guo Chen, in the second half of the episode.

Both of them are skilled actors who have been honed through the art of drama, and when they fight each other now, it's like a fight between gods!
The rivalry between the two did not have any intense conflicts or sticky love, but the two used extremely restrained yet precise performances to clearly interpret the subtle relationship between Wang Manchun and Ming Lou.

The two's wonderful performance immediately became a hot topic on social media.

"The rivalry between Ming Lou and Wang Manchun is so fucking amazing."

"Minglou pretends to be ignorant to flirt with girls, while Wang Manchun doubts him but likes him at the same time... The sense of proportion in this performance is simply amazing!"

"This is the emotional tug-of-war between adults. What kind of people are those who kiss and make love all the time?"

"Can you believe it? I actually smiled like an auntie while watching a spy drama..."

"Auntie's smile +1"

"Let those young actors and actresses learn what acting is!"

"Forget it, you might as well just let him die."

"Who is this Su Man? Why is she so strong? Why have I never seen her before?"

"She is a princess of the Beijing circle with a good family background. She was honing her acting skills in the drama theater before. Now that her skills have been perfected, she has come down the mountain to exorcise demons and monsters!"

"A little-known fact: Guo Chen also worked in a drama theater before his debut. That place is a place that trains people."

"And Auntie Guo, she's a serious drama industry big shot!"

"Please, the bigwigs in the drama industry please come out as soon as possible. I really don't want to watch those idiots perform industrial saccharine dramas anymore!"
