  The "easy to use" Peng Yuchang is out again

  I have always wanted to ask a question, like Peng Yuyan... Oh no, there are not many young actors like Peng Yuchang who are willing to work in variety shows, have no burdens, can play youth themes, make laughs, and can control the drama. ?

So, directors are super "useful"?

The "easy to use" Peng Yuchang is active from the big screen to the small screen.

  22 years ago, director Zhang Yibai came out of his debut film "Keep Love Through to the End".

Twenty-two years later, he filmed the flaming, two-and-warm youth drama "The Sky of the Wind Dog" and fell in love with Peng Yuchang.

On the evening of October 22nd, "Wind Dog", who ushered in the finale, scored 7.8 points on Douban, with a total broadcast volume of over 300 million. As station B entered the drama market, the fancy barrage and hot search also broke records.

  The play tells the story of a middle school in the center of Chongqing in the millennium, the "Four Sons of Daxing Village" old dogs Tu Jun, Dali Jiao Zhu Weijiao, Mimi Ding Rongliang, Dazui Luo Shenxi and transfer outstanding students Li Anran, Martin, and basketball The youthful years of Liu Wenqin.

  The 17-year-old high school student played by Peng Yuchang sometimes feels that he is copying Zhou Xingchi's nonsensical performance. The scumbag of Ai Shuabao does not seem to be annoying.

There are also female men who are good at flying kick and lion roar. The good student Ma Tian, ​​who has transferred from school, is tall and handsome, with a Taiwanese accent, a bit like the hero of an idol drama.

An Ran, who had good and beautiful grades, had some fate with Liu Wenqin who was dropped out.

Different from the small and fresh styles of many youth dramas, the title reveals a sense of nonsensical temperament, which is dubbed "sand sculpture" youth drama by netizens.

  The realism core is hidden under the nonsensical shell of "The Sky of the Wind Dog".

A few teenagers seem carefree, but they are all imprinted with family and society, and their own troubles and bitterness are hidden in their hearts.

Since it affects their character, it also indicates different life choices in the future.

Liu Wenqin bought gifts for An Ran to play wild games. He was injured and lost the chance to go to college. As a result, the gifts bought were the same as the fifth prizes given by the two at the buffet.

Every child has a different starting line. Liu Wenqin said, "The end of my life is not as good as your starting point."

The old dog seemed heartless, but behind him there was a broken family and a sensitive heart.

He took a long-distance bus to visit his mother, and invited him to eat. Mom did not come. In the end, he only saw his mother and his new family enjoying themselves. He could only quietly put down the gifts he brought to his mother and left.

The nerves are as big as him. If the soles of sports shoes fall off when running against others, they will also carefully maintain their self-esteem.

The youth comedy style is sought after by netizens, but the plot in the second half of the episode turns to cruel youth, healing and turning "depression", showing cruel reality and personal tragedy, which makes some viewers feel uncomfortable.

  Tan Songyun's "One Chicken, Two Eats" Leads Two Dramas

  "In the Name of Family" starring Tan Songyun, Song Weilong, and Zhang Xincheng only ended, and "Dear Mayang Street" starring Xu Weizhou, Tan Songyun, and Niu Junfeng landed on Youku, which is also a nostalgic youth drama.

When the series opened, in 1984, the Yi family moved from Hunan to Mayang Street in Guangzhou.

Residents in Mayang Street gathered together to watch the Olympic Games. Xu Haifeng won the first Olympic gold medal for China.

Because the driver was distracted, the car crashed into the neighbor on Mayang Street, which also made people laugh first.

  Because Tan Songyun just starred in "In the Name of Family", the poster structure of two men and one woman almost made the audience misunderstand that Tan Songyun is the same type of role "one chicken and two food".

"In the Name of Family" tells the story of Li Haichao adopting Ling Xiao and He Ziqiu abandoned by his family by coincidence. They grew up with Li Haichao’s biological daughter Li Jianjian, and encountered various twists and turns in the process of growing up. In the end, each has a belonging and reaps happiness.

The previous part of the family drama in the play is warm and funny, and is known as the domestic drama closest to the classic Korean youth drama "Please answer 1988". Unfortunately, in the second half of the play, the two "brothers" fell in love with the heroine at the same time. Many viewers accept incompetence.

  Coming to "Dear Mayang Street", in addition to changes in the environment, Li Jianjian changed to Ma Xiaoxiao, from a scumbag to a master, the triangle relationship is still familiar.

But in addition to the benchmark "In the name of family", many places in "Dear Mayang Street" make people even more reminiscent of the Korean drama "Please answer 1988".

For example, the orientation of each family in Mayang Street is introduced in the form of animation; for example, the main axis of the narrative is also two, one is the daily life of the six families and the interaction between neighbors, and the other is the growth of young boys and girls, and their Ambiguous feelings.

Another name for the "Please Answer Series" is "Guess the Husband Series".

In "Dear Mayang Street", the love triangle between Ma Xiaoxiao (Tan Songyun), Ou Xiaojian (Xu Weizhou), and Yi Dongdong also aroused the audience's interest in speculation.

However, the "tribute to the explosion of money" in the plot does not conceal the restoration of the atmosphere and nostalgia of the times in "Dear Mayang Street".

From the costumes and shapes of the characters, to the architectural style of the buildings, the signs on the roadside, and daily necessities, you can go back to the 1980s in seconds.
