The day after the phone call with Zhou Xiaowan, Zhou Xiao flew to Shanghai to meet with a domestic minister. After talking to the other party and getting his nod, he returned to Japan with satisfaction. It should be fine now, Japan The strength of the Chinese people is still quite significant and cannot be underestimated. In fact, this method is the last thing Zhou Xiao wants to do. He is not afraid to mention his Chinese identity. However, seeking help from Japanese Chinese during such a sensitive period may have the opposite result. If this is the case, it will be dangerous. But at this critical moment that affects the survival of azx, you have to do it no matter how much you don¡¯t want to. After finishing this matter, Zhou Xiao returned to Japan to continue filming the TV series. Due to the dome tour, the filming of "Sorry for Youth" was once stalled. For a week, Zhou Xiao and Maeda Oshima were not on the crew, and only the assistant director and a group of other actors filmed the scenes without Zhou Xiao and others. , but for such a drama, the three leading actors basically account for 80% of the scenes. Without them, the crew can't really film much. If Zhou Xiao and the others don't return to the crew, there won't be any scenes for them in a few days. Maybe it's all finished. After returning to the crew, Zhou Xiao and the others immediately started working and devoted themselves to crazy filming. In terms of ratings, "Sorry for Youth" is not very good, no Or to put it another way, the ratings of "Sorry for Youth" are actually good, but unfortunately the previous work of this drama is "Naoki Hansawa", which is A work that has the right time, place and people at the same time, the ratings of this series are almost impossible to surpass in this era. In the face of "Hansawa Naoki"'s nearly 50% ratings, any person or drama that dares to compare it with its ratings will only end up with a big defeat. Losing to this drama is absolute. Crimes other than war. ¡°Only for Zhou Xiao, the Japanese would be so picky about his ratings. The ratings of "Sorry for Youth" are indeed relatively "normal" compared to Zhou Xiao's other dramas. The ratings of the first episode were about 24%, but by the third episode they dropped directly to 16%, a huge drop of 8%. Zhou Xiao estimated that the reason was probably because many of the viewers of the first episode had previously liked "Ban Ze" "Naoki" audience. The viewing habits and interests of these viewers are completely different from the target group of "Sorry for Youth". It is understandable that the viewers did not like it after watching the first episode. The operation itself is not worried, but the Japanese media is blowing up, including the TV media. Due to the TV station where the TV series is broadcast, there are still relatively few people discussing this matter. The Internet and print media have no such scruples. The ratings of "Zhou Xiao's new drama plummeted!" "Tax issues have triggered a crisis of trust. Are the public tired of Zhou Xiao?" ¡·. Various such speculations have spread wildly on the Internet and print media, as if Zhou Xiao has achieved amazing rubbish results. ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? Actually? Now it is 2013, and the ratings of the TV industry in Japan and even the world are steadily decreasing every year. Even the ratings around the world are falling, and even Zhou Xiao's ratings dropped by 8%. Even now, the ratings of his drama are still the first in the quarter and are far behind other dramas. This is Zhou Xiao. He and his drama cannot be thought of according to the ratings of normal Japanese dramas. In the Japanese entertainment industry, other top Japanese drama stars are A-level. At that time (around 2000), Kimura Takuya was exclusively S-level. As for Zhou Xiao in recent years, he is SS-level. The ratings of "Sorry for Youth" were sluggish for two episodes and finally recovered to a certain extent in the fourth episode. The ratings of 18.7% are still the best among the others, ranking among the best in this quarter's ratings. Facts prove that the broadcast time and the audience It is indeed important. The original ratings of "Sorry for Youth" fluctuated hard around 8%, but it was replaced by Zhou Xiao. Coupled with the topical joining of two girls, Maeda Oshima The ratings of the two dramas of Past Life and This Life are running in two completely different directions. After the ratings for the fourth episode came out, people¡¯s voices gradually changed. On the one hand, the obvious increase in ratings has made most people shut up. On the other hand, people also saw surprises from Maeda Oshima. People have not associated the profession of idol with "strength" for a long time. The idols back then were indeed great, and their acting and singing were top-notch. However, in recent years, idols have become synonymous with low standards and amateurism. In fact, the girls of akb have changed the audience's stereotype to a great extent, including Maeda Oshima, even Ono Eirina and other girls. After receiving very professional acting training, their acting skills have improved a lot. improvement. But people¡¯s stereotypes cannot be changed just once or twice, and even now, in the AKB Group, there are still a large number of girls who are relatively weak in acting skills. Even after a lot of training, it is still difficult to reach the average level of girls. , these people are here, people are facing each otherIt¡¯s understandable that acting skills still maintain stereotypes. Since it was reported that Zhou Xiao was going to make a TV series with two akb girls, people naturally began to question the issue of acting skills. Not only the two girls, but also Zhou Xiao's acting skills have been questioned. Zhou Xiao is very good at filming. There is no need to question this. People now believe in Zhou Xiao's level, even if he has reached If you make a super bad movie, some people will speculate on the meaning behind it through this movie. But Zhou Xiao¡¯s acting skills He has acted in one or two works in which he was a non-lead actor. Among them, his The research is mediocre at best. ??????????????????????????????????????????? Maybe "This Man Is From Earth" is one of the works that he really wrote, directed and acted in? Even for this thing, a movie is not a movie, a TV series is not a TV series, and even a variety show is not necessarily counted In this two-hour work with four different characters, Zhou Xiao's performance is actually good, handsome and mysterious. Not to mention, in terms of acting skills, he can be regarded as giving a qualified performance, buthow many years has it been since that performance? Zhou Xiao is so busy with work, and acting is not his major. Although his age and experience have been increasing, many people don't believe that his acting skills have improved in the past few years. "It would be nice if your acting skills don't get worse as you age, not to mention improving." This kind of example is not unprecedented, such as a duck-voiced actress who starred in a semi-autobiographical movie with Star Master not long after her debut. In that drama, this actress was so spiritual that she looked closer. In the past few years, especially the movie "X Dong X Roar 2", which was a collaboration with the members of the Northeastern group F4 and their shoehorn-faced master ?Well. I digress. Then, "Sorry for Youth" was broadcast. ¡°I haven¡¯t seen much about the first episode, nor much about the second episode¡the third episode, the fourth episode¡many people can see it. Zhou Xiao¡¯s initial acting skills were still the same, tepid and steady. As for Maeda Oshima, professionals can see that their acting skills have indeed improved, but ordinary people have not yet seen clearly how much their acting skills have improved. More importantly, the three people's acting skills have not been shown much. Until episode four. In the original version of "Sorry for Youth", the fourth episode was far from the time for Maeda's character to appear. However, in the revised plot, Maeda officially appeared as early as the third episode. By the fourth episode, Maeda added a big character. Dao, plus Zhou Xiao, the three of them had their first rivalry scene with just the three of them. Although it was only the first rivalry scene, the three of them actually started brewing the "showdown" atmosphere as early as the first episode, and they held it in for four full episodes. The first scene in the three-person series explodes! In this scene, Maeda, who came back because of work, met Zhou Xiao and Yuko, but the relationship between the three became a little subtle at this time. Originally, Zhou Xiao used to like Maeda's character, but because Maeda liked Zhou Xiao gay friends, so there is no result between the two of them. The time is now, because Maeda has been away for a long time, Zhou Xiao has a faint feeling of love with Yuko, who has not seen each other for many years, but this time happens. Maeda appeared again, and the Shura field between the three people was created. In the series. Zhou Xiaogang had some ambiguity with Yuko, and Maeda suddenly appeared. This drama is not a dull love triangle drama, so although there are scenes that are quite similar to a love triangle. But the style of the entire series is still cheerful and interesting. For example, when Zhou Xiao and the three meet now, they start with a series of misunderstandings and funny scenes, and even one after another of pretending to be stupid and making complaints. But in this kind of scene, it is not without the role of acting skills, such as Maeda¡¯s performance when he met Zhou Xiao, and what it was like for two people who hadn¡¯t seen each other for many years to meet for the first time. Different people will have different requirements. In the original work of the previous life, Ryo Nishikido and Haru basically didn't have the feeling of when the two met. Due to the style of the drama, the previous work "Sorry for Youth" basically blurred the emotional line between the two, but Zhou Xiao here focuses on it. When describing a situation, the two of them need to express their feelings. In the series, after solving the students' problems, Zhou Xiao and Yuko took the car back to Mishima. In the original work, there was only one scene where they took the students from Mishima to Numazu City and the "heart-shaped ring" incident occurred in the car. , this scene was not in the original work. Because Maeda was to appear, Zhou Xiao added a scene in which only the two of them returned to Mishima City. In the episode, Zhou Xiao and Yuzi walked to the car. As they walked and chatted, the atmosphere between the two gradually became ambiguous. "Ah" The two of them had just sat down after getting in the car. At the moment when everyone could tell that the two of them were about to break through the window paper, a small voiceIt rang. The two of them looked in the direction of the sound and saw another girl standing there in surprise. This person is a girl they all know, but has disappeared from their memories for more than ten years! Time seems to have stopped at this moment. In just a few seconds, the three people who were stunned had no words or actions. What was broadcast on the TV was only the sound of the tram moving and close-ups of the three people constantly switching. This scene was completely expressed by the facial expressions and eyes of the three people! Zhou Xiao's surprise and surprise are mixed with embarrassment, Yuko's nostalgia and emotion are mixed with anger, Maeda's sadness and nervousness are mixed with guilt In just a few seconds of the scene, each of the three people's expressions and eyes are countless. This change, without any action lines, fully demonstrates the subtle relationship between the three people. In fact, on television, you may not be able to do this kind of performance well, because the audience may not like your style. It may even be that the audience is doing whatever they want when the series is broadcast, and they don¡¯t even notice these subtleties of yours. . But after all, Zhou Xiao's drama has a lot of young viewers, and the audience's concentration is relatively high. "Naoki Hansawa" is still a very standard Japanese drama, with a relatively slow pace and actors' movements. Exaggerated, but the drama "Sorry for Youth" is exaggerated and interesting. However, the rhythm of the whole drama is very fast, and the audience's attention is relatively high. Many people still saw this series of acting skills of Zhou Xiao and others. The most ordinary audience who do not understand acting skills can easily feel the extremely subtle relationship between the three people in these few seconds, and they know a little bit about acting skills. Or most of the viewers who had cared about the acting skills of the three before the broadcast were shocked, and were extremely surprised to see these three actors who were previously considered to lack acting skills explain an extremely complicated plot in the series with just their eyebrows! ¡°It¡¯s so awesome!¡± Many people couldn¡¯t help but exclaimed in front of the TV. Is it great? In fact, it is not very impressive. Many actors can give performances of three people, but this kind of performance is quite rare for the three leading actors in this drama. Maeda appeared in the series starting from the third episode, but did not appear until the end of the fourth episode. It was the first time that the three of them acted opposite each other. Before that, although the three of them had not acted opposite each other, they had always had opportunities to show off their acting skills. If you look back, you will find that their acting skills were actually very good from the beginning, just because It just lacked a breaking point and was not noticed by anyone before. The audience also knows this. If people are picky about the ratings of Zhou Xiao's works, then they are relatively more generous with the acting skills of Zhou Xiao and the others. After this episode was aired, there were basically no negative comments about the three people's performance in this episode. People gave the maximum degree of positive appreciation to the three people's acting skills. Comments said: "Zhou Xiao and Maeda Oshima, what kind of work can one director and two idols perform? "Sorry for Youth" gives us the answer. It is interesting, exciting, full of imagination and a relaxed and humorous atmosphere, which is even more exciting. What¡¯s amazing is the acting skills of the three people, especially the two idols Maeda Oshima. We are actually used to not expecting too much from idols, but today¡¯s idols, we find that they have become super powerful¡± This kind of comment is still there. Relatively normal, besides. This kind of comments is also a thorough review of Japanese dramas. The ones that criticize even more harshly, even to the point of embarrassment, are the idol-type comments that are originally fans. These comments are even more powerful than those of Maeda Oshima. "Actually, it's not like we haven't seen idols acting before "Sorry for Youth", even akb himself. The whole group also starred in "Majisu Ka Gakuen" for several seasons and even starred in the Super Power Project planned by Zhou Xiao series. However, strictly speaking, these works are not out of the idol's nest. In our impression, these works are still the works of idols. But "Sorry for Youth" is different for the first time. Real cooperation with Mr. Zhou Xiao means that Maeda and Oshima have the ability to star in Japan's top TV series. In the past, we always said that Yuejiu is better, Yuejiu is better, not only because Yuejiu always broadcasts love TV series, but also Because Yuejiu has the highest average ratings in Japan. But now, if we look at it by this standard, maybe we should praise someone else, because the drama schedule with the highest ratings has been moved from Yuejiu to Sunday for several consecutive years. Mr. Akatsuki's semi-exclusive Japanese TV schedule, Zhou Xiao's schedule, is now the top schedule in Japan. And Maeda Oshima, who starred in Zhou Xiao's works and performed so amazingly, is tantamount to winning starring roles including Yue. The ability of any other schedule, including Nine, is even more critical, Maeda and Oshima.The two girls represent a group. This group is the idol group cultivated by azx and Mr. Zhou Xiao. The idols were once gradually regarded as having no strength or acting skills because of the Kitty Club and the various idols behind it. The group of artists who had no singing voice finally began to have the ability to star in TV series again! From being unable to being able, Mr. Zhou Xiao and Maeda Oshima have undoubtedly opened up a new path for idols. What¡¯s even more amazing is that from now on, Mr. Zhou Xiao and azx can confidently invite those who already have acting and singing abilities. Newcomers join azx and akb group because they have proved with facts that azx does have the soil to not only make the idol group successful, but also allow girls who are interested in this career to succeed. From this point of view, the success of Maeda Oshima¡¯s two girls is of profound significance to akb, and it is no problem to say that it is worth hundreds of millions or billions of yen. " Zhou Xiao is embarrassed by this. " In short, driven by the wonderful performances of Zhou Xiao and the three of them and the excellence of the series itself, the ratings of the fourth episode "Sorry for Youth" returned to 25%, and the final ratings fell to 25.5% In terms of numbers, this increasingly good work once again entered the audience's attention. After that, the series stabilized itself with 27% for the fifth episode, 26.8% for the sixth episode, and 27.2% for the seventh episode. The two girls Maeda Oshima also breathed a sigh of relief. With such a work, their paths after graduation will undoubtedly be much smoother (~^~)
