In the current domestic entertainment industry, in my opinion, there are only two male actors who can carry the banner of ratings -
One is Yu Hewei and the other is Zhang Jiayi.
Needless to say, Yu Hewei has classic works in both movies and TV series.
Zhang Jiayi has created a very distinct "dad" image in the hearts of the audience starting from "Dwelling in a Snail", then to "Pi", and then to "The Stage" and "Mountains and Seas" at the beginning of the year. , and the quality and ratings of each drama are soaring.
On July 13, the TV series "My Love for You is Beautiful" starring Zhang Jiayi was launched on Mango TV.
This drama has been on the air for four days, and its popularity has reached the first place on the entire network. In terms of ratings, Zhang Jiayi is indeed a savior.
But when I clicked on the first episode, I never expected——
When a drama series has many actors including Zhang Jiayi, Sha Yi, Liu Mintao, Song Dandan, etc., it actually It can also turn over so completely.
Click on the comment area, all negative comments.
Even in the barrage area, someone said at the beginning that "I came just for Zhang Jiayi", and five minutes later said, "Even if there is Zhang Jiayi in this drama, I really can't watch it."
In fact, when I saw the name of this drama, I felt bad inside.
I don’t know what evil trend has arisen in the naming of domestic TV series in the past two years. It seems that all the screenwriters of urban emotional dramas graduated from Jinjiang and have Mary Sues in their minds——
"A Smile Is Beautiful", "You Are Beautiful When You Smile", "The Next Stop Is Happiness"... and then the name of this drama is "My Love for You is Beautiful".
The names of these dramas are all without exception. They seem to be gold and jade, but in fact they are empty. Looking at the names alone, they have almost nothing to do with the content. The audience will not know this at all without reading the introduction and TV dramas. What exactly is the show about?
Even if all the drama names mentioned above are exchanged with each other, there will be no sense of inconsistency.
In comparison, classic dramas that have become popular in recent years, such as "The Hidden Corner", "Dajiang Dahe", "Awakening Age", "The Silent Truth", etc., start from the naming It's already far ahead.
However, driven by curiosity, I still clicked on the first episode of "Magical". After all, who doesn't want to take a look at how the creators used such a national-level cast and compiled it? How about a completely ridiculous story?
The name is inferior, and the content is not inferior either.
I think most of the viewers who first noticed this drama came for Zhang Jiayi and Sha Yi, two Mesozoic acting talents, and the themes they starred in were family life dramas that they were good at. But if someone checked the synopsis, I think they would be like me in their hearts, thinking of quitting——
I have confirmed with my eyes that this is a drama that I cannot watch.
After watching six episodes, there are only two words left in my mind -
Bullshit.
This drama has once again proved that no matter how good the actors or the platform, content is still the foundation of the drama. It's like a poor cook. Even if he is given the best raw materials and stove, he still can't make a good dish.
In short, Luo Qing, played by Liu Mintao, married Wang Dashan, played by Zhang Jiayi, and gave birth to her daughter Wang Xiaomi because of the mistake she made during a one-night stand.
Twenty years later, Wang Xiaomi, who was committed to making talk shows a lifelong career, met Ke Lei, the owner of a small theater played by Sha Yi, during a bar performance. What followed was the most outrageous and outrageous thing. An event happened that was less likely than winning the lottery -
This Ke Lei was Luo Qing's one-night stand, and he was Wang Xiaomi's biological father.
In just three sentences, the core of this drama is summarized. The strong smell of a bloody ethics drama at 8 o'clock in the morning hits my face. In fact, after the first episode, I can already click on it. The cross key in the upper right corner means "say goodbye" to the show.
”
But people are curious, just like a comment from a netizen -
“What keeps me motivated to watch this show is to know how ugly this show is.” . ”
The thing that puzzles me the most about this drama is that all normal people in the drama can happily accept the incident of “encountering their biological father by chance.”
Wang The Dashan family of three, plus the grandma played by Song Dandan, can be said to be a happy family: his father, Wang Dashan, runs a noodle shop and the business is booming; his mother, Luo Qing, runs a boutique shop opposite the noodle shop, and she can take a vacation for herself from time to time. ;Grandma’s financial strength is bottomless, and her biggest hobby is collecting antiques and occasionally making some money through live broadcasts.
But under this seemingly normal surface, the tone of the whole show is just like that. Zhang Jiayi wore a wig and said "I am 25 this year", which was ridiculous.
What was her daughter Wang Xiaomi's first reaction when she learned the truth?
She was not angry or hysterical, but was the one who adapted the fastest and best among all. She first thought of Ke Lei’s banknotes, savings, yachts, mansions, swimming pools, and sports cars, and was immersed in it with joy. In the atmosphere of having two fathers, I can even smile as brightly as a flower and say:
"I have become the second generation of rich people. "
What? What kind of strange brain circuit is this?
As for Luo Qing's first reaction, it is even more incredible. It makes me doubt that the screenwriter did not take Wang Dashan into account at all. See it as a "person".
She first filed for divorce directly, and the reason was that she was afraid that others would make sarcastic remarks behind her back when they knew the cause of the matter -
"I told you. This incident has tortured me for 23 years of my marriage. ”
No, how can you say this?
When she was pregnant, she and Wang Dashan quickly obtained the certificate. Now that her daughter discovered the truth, she directly raised her non-biological daughter. My husband of 23 years was kicked, then turned around and started crying, as if he had been greatly wronged, and said:
"I have to take care of this myself. "
After seeing this, I gave the screenwriter a thumbs up -
You really dare to write it.
So who was Wang Dashan who suffered the biggest blow? How did you react?
If I tell you, if you haven’t watched the show, you might think I’m telling a joke.
Wang Dashan knew from the beginning that his daughter was not his. , fell in love at first sight after meeting Luo Qing in a bar. Even if Luo Qing told him that she was pregnant, he was willing to be a "taker" for love.
Yes, a man chatted with him and told him that he was pregnant. The woman who had other people’s children, and then these two strangers received the certificate directly the next day.
How do you want me to praise this plot?
After my daughter learned the truth, Wang Dashan can accept that his daughter is not his, but he cannot accept his daughter's attitude after learning the truth - "Even if that is our biological father, you are the right one and he is the wrong one. ”
After raising a daughter for 23 years and doting on his wife for 23 years, Wang Dashan’s final choice was to pack his bags and run away from home after a psychological struggle, which he said with a good reputation:
“Make room for your biological father. ”
What kind of self-sacrificing personality is this?
It is clear that Wang Dashan is the most injured person, but he has to comfort everyone in turn, and he also has to do his own psychological work Work.
It's wonderful, it's really wonderful.
To be honest, when the plot of a drama is so outrageous, even if the actors are extremely capable, they can't turn the tide.
And this drama uses the popular talk show as a selling point, which is actually a big failure.
All the talk show scripts in this drama highlight one word -
Awkward.
Talk show writing and TV drama writing are fundamentally two different directions. One focuses on story and the other focuses on rhythm.
Not only the script, but also the reason why talk show artists can make a speech that makes the whole house applaud is because they can grasp the audience's noise and capture the audience's heart, sometimes intensely, sometimes soothingly.
However, it can be seen from the play that whether it is Chen Meiyi or Sha Yi, who plays Wang Xiaomi, they did not train a talk show specifically for this play at all, and then added a running account comparable to that of a primary school student. The talk show jokes created an embarrassing scene of epic proportions——
The audience on the screen clapped and applauded, and the audience outside the screen watched at double speed.
After trying hard to watch 6 episodes, I finally couldn’t hold on and chose to give up this TV series.
As an ordinary viewer, sometimes I really can't figure out why some domestic screenwriters can write such "raucous dramas" as a matter of course.
For a TV series, if you want the audience to have a passion for the characters and relate to the plot, the first thing you have to do is to make the audience understand the logic of the characters’ behavior——
Whether it is justice or evil, all choices made by the character must have a reason to support the choice.
And this kind of "anti-logic" is just to amplify the comedy effect and to attract attention without any limit, so don't feel wronged when being criticized.
Failure to make progress in creation will only reap the consequences in the end.
