Character evaluation

Zhu Yanping always smiles and has a loud voice. In Taiwan's film history, Zhu Yanping has been a filmmaker for decades and directed hundreds of works. His image of "comedy director" is deeply rooted in the hearts of the media, film critics and audiences. Although close to the mall market, but never limited comedy type. (Sina entertainment review) Zhu Yanping's films have unique characteristics. The characters in his comedies are set in a strong contrast. Some of the characters have distinctive personalities, some are partial to typology, and most of the emotions are empty. He often uses parody of classics, tricking others, losing expectations, and game words to make jokes. His tragedies prefer to control the narrative rhythm with incentive events and plot turning points, and pay attention to the expression of friendship and family affection. His main drama focuses on aesthetic love. Zhu Yanping's films adhere to the principle of "vulgar" first. Comedy tends to be vulgar and vulgar, while non comedy tends to be popular. At the same time, Zhu Yanping's films attach great importance to the role of stars, but rely too much on stars, which greatly limits the development of his films.
