Based on public feedback and Yang Mi's performance in the play, there are basically two problems: Yan value and acting skills. As a representative actress in "85 Flowers", Yang Mi always committed crimes by beauty and dominated the screen in ancient puppet circles for a period of time. Only with the growth of age and poor maintenance, in this modern puppet show, her face value has dropped significantly, and any frame will expose her signs of aging.
In addition to flabby skin and conspicuous decree lines, there are also numb and tired eyes, which makes Yang Mi look like an ordinary person caught in a middle-aged crisis instead of an eloquent elite lawyer. Especially when she and Soso are in the same box, her fatigue deepens the age gap between them. Although Soso didn't make any performance contribution except glaring and smiling in the play, at least he maintained a sense of youth. So two people stand side by side, and suddenly there is a visual effect of the next generation.
Perhaps in order to balance Yang Mi's fatigue, the crew spent a lot of money and bought hundreds of sets of clothing styles and brand-name bags for Yang Mi. Most of the clothes selected are thousands of luxury brands. For example, this dress that collided with Zhang Ziyi's shirt is an out-of-season dress of a luxury brand, and the watch she wears also exceeds 60,000 yuan.
Another dress of Yang Mi's previous episodes is not anonymous, it comes from a big-name out-of-season garment. The bag she carries starts at 10 thousand, plus luxury brand jewelry, it must be valuable. In a trance, people feel that she is playing an entertainment star. Even in ordinary life clothes, the role of Yang Mi doesn't lose a coffee spot. The price of a coat is more than 20 thousand yuan, and even a pair of high heels is not less than 5000 yuan. Judging from this ostentation and extravagance, Qin Shi, played by Yang Mi, did take the elite route.
However, these extravagant costumes did not mention Yang Mi's aura, but played an aging role, especially those colorful costumes, which could neither highlight the role personality nor enhance Yang Mi's charm value, and even felt that Yang Mi had become rustic in some moments.
In contrast, several female companions in the play are more eye-catching. For example, Liu Lin, an actress, often appears in rural dramas, but in this drama, she is very foreign, not dressed too hard, but she looks elegant.
Of course, the role problem can't be entirely attributed to the service style. Yang Mi himself is not only poorly maintained, but more importantly, his acting skills are backward, resulting in poor character, poor personality and no charm.
In the new play, Yang Mi should have created the image of an elite lawyer, but her lines are still rigid, making it easy for the audience to play. Even her expression has always been loveless. Whether talking to colleagues or talking to little suckling dogs, it is a perfunctory feeling of "nothing to do with me". A netizen summed it up very well. Yang Mi's biggest problem in this drama is not his face value, but his eyes are empty and he has no content. He just read the lines, but he didn't feel the emotional change of the role at all. This led her to look the same when expressing pettish or domineering kisses, and simply felt the inner waves.
Especially when Yang Mi is coquetry, he only works hard on his movements, or twists his waist or makes signal with the lips, which is full of uncomfortable sense of disobedience. There is a scene in which Yang Mi monologues in front of the mirror, which should be full of amorous feelings, but Yang Mi shows the visual sense of knocking over the oil pan. Even ridiculed as the female version of Hans Zhang, I wonder how Yang Mi feels about this?
Especially in the contrast of supporting roles, the boss played by Liu Lin has both temperament and momentum. She can vividly interpret the micro-expressions when chatting with subordinates and the wily ideas at work, and upgrade an idol drama to a workplace drama. Playing against such a skeleton exposed Yang Mi's short acting skills.
Even Li Xiaofeng, another female companion in the play, is rumored to be Hawick Lau's new girlfriend, but her performance in the play is very eye-catching. She not only has the domineering spirit of the head of the family, but also can interpret the inner activities of the characters through some micro-expressions. From this point of view, many questions about the role of Yang Mi's new drama, although there are some complaints about Yan value, are more questions about acting skills. In fact, as a 30+ actress, age is not a problem, and there is no need to worry about her face value. But if her acting skills are still poor, it will be difficult to break through the bottleneck of transformation.
