Tamia Liu’s new play is ugly? Double-line concurrency is eye-catching, but unfortunately the man is a little weak.

Tamia Liu, the "national daughter-in-law", was also unable to avoid the custom. The new drama "Chasing Dreams" is based on the development of Shenzhen Special Economic Zone, and provides a profile description of the development of Shenzhen Special Economic Zone from the entrepreneurial stories of Wei Dongxiao and Du Fang.

Although the main perspective of this drama is Wei Dongxiao’s transformation from an engineer to a government official to an entrepreneur played by Wang Lei, Du Fang, played by Tamia Liu, is equally eye-catching, from an unremarkable village woman to seizing the opportunity of reform to going into business in the sea and then going hand in hand with her husband.

Tamia Liu is an evergreen tree in the entertainment circle. Although good reputation is accumulated from the virtue of "national daughter-in-law", the transformation of middle-aged Tamia Liu is just as successful. The image of a virtuous and family-oriented good woman has always been a very important label for Tamia Liu, including her early screen image, which is also stuck in this kind of insensitive nice guy. The most obvious one is Ah Zhu in Dragon’s Eight Branches. Although this role is smart enough, looking back at the image in Tamia Liu’s plays, I still feel a little "stupid". Mazu solidified this characteristic of Tamia Liu to the strongest point.

Nirvana in fire is a particularly successful turn of Tamia Liu. From a virtuous little woman, Tamia Liu can control the "big woman". Although there are not many scenes of the Princess Nihuang in the play, the image of the atmosphere and cool is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Since then, Tamia Liu has successfully transformed into a "bully" with the role of Andy in Ode to Joy.

In the new drama "Chasing Dreams", Tamia Liu is obviously a collection of the above ways. In the early days, Du Fang was a virtuous wife, with all the "three obedience and four virtues". Her husband was unable to take care of his family in the army. She worked hard with her two children alone and was a competent wife. Du Fang was a competent wife in this period, and diligence and virtue were her pronouns.

Catch up with the tide of Nanbin development, many people can’t sit still. Du Fang, who was angry at the factory, quit. After resigning, she started a small porridge shop, running from site to site, accumulating customers, and working without white or black. With her diligence, simplicity and good attitude, she saved the first bucket of gold. At this time, Du Fang began to look like a businessman, with vision, brains and willingness to bear hardships, which was both distressing and deeply understanding. Although every bowl of porridge is hard-boiled, but the stupid husband called a bunch of comrades to drink, and no one gave money. She went home without a complaint. Where can such a good daughter-in-law be found?

With the development of her career, Du Fang’s vision has also changed. She quietly opened a photo development and printing shop, which is both brisk and family-friendly, and therefore saved her husband the first sum of money to invest in the communication industry. Such a daughter-in-law can not only cook, wash clothes and wash feet. It is not difficult to see from the trailer that Du Fang also started a real estate company with her husband in the later period, which provided many job opportunities for the comrades who changed jobs.

From women workers on the assembly line to individual small bosses and partners in her husband’s career, Tamia Liu’s role in "Chasing Dreams" is eye-catching, although it is earthy. Aside from Wei Dongxiao’s pioneering efforts, it is enough to look at the sideline of Du Fang.

What is even more rare is that Du Fang in the play has a different emotional line. Chen Dayao, a fellow villager, has always had feelings for her. In order to force her to follow to Hong Kong, she did not hesitate to hold her youngest son hostage. But I didn’t expect her son to stay by mistake, and Du Fang, who is extremely resilient, came back. Rival in love has helped him raise his son for 10 years, and no man can bear it, not to mention Wei Dongxiao, who is still hot-blooded. As a result, the involvement of Du Fang, Chen Dayao and Wei Dongxiao will continue to the next generation.

If "Entrepreneurial Work" plays this emotional entanglement as a dog’s blood, it is nothing to watch. The most surprising thing is that Oyster has almost become the link between all these people. He was brought to Hong Kong to persuade Chen Dayao who almost went astray with his family. The key is that Chen Dayao really raised Oyster as his son, and he also understands that he is "heartless" to Du Fang. And this extroverted son later became the driving force for Chen Dayao and Wei Dongxiao to compete. Pursuing this line, this drama is also worth looking forward to.

It’s a pity, however, that from the first six episodes, the role of Wei Dongxiao played by Wang Lei was not brilliant, and the voice was slightly dramatic, and the action design for the expression of characters was slightly exaggerated, while the struggle scenes mostly stayed on the slogan "We succeeded". The overall momentum of hegemony was there, but it was not enough to impress people.

This, of course, has something to do with Wang Lei’s image. On the whole, Wang Lei is more simple and honest than witty, and it is not brilliant to play this kind of clever role, just like William Feng’s situation in "The Age of Entrepreneurship", which is a serious injury. Secondly, the details of the difficulty and struggle of starting a business are not fully expressed, and it is obviously not deeply rooted in the hearts of the people simply by narration and time flash. In addition, the dubbing made by a tough northeast man in Wang Lei to fit the image of a southerner in Nanbin is a bit neither fish nor fowl, which aggravates this sense of incompatibility.

So although Tamia Liu is attractive enough, Wang Lei still needs to work harder. Text/Red Queen
