Taipei women
wasted Guilunmei
After " Tokyo Women's Picture Book ", "Beijing Women's Picture Book", and " Shanghai Women's Picture Book ", " Taipei Women's Picture Book " also made a brilliant debut.
This is the first time that Golden Horse actress bestie Gui Lunmei starred in a TV series after 14 years. She also bothered to invite guest appearances such as Zhang Xiaoquan, , Feng Xiaoyue, and Yang Jinhua. Compared with the casting of the predecessors, it can be regarded as the top-notch design series.
It’s a pity that not only did the popularity not stir up, Douban also only got 6.6 points, and it also showed a downward trend.
It’s not that Gui Lun Magnesium is not working anymore. It is the highlight of Taipei women. No one has figured it out from director to actor. The twisted personality of the Taiwanese doll made the "women" fall into cliché again.

Can't stand the Taipei Dream
Every second it says outdated
The reason why the Tokyo Women's Picture Book was successful is that it has made the image of Tokyo better. Here is prosperous, avant-garde, free, inclusive, and many opportunities, and women can also be full of ambitions and desires. That's why the heroine is determined to fight in Tokyo.
But at this point, the "Taipei Women's Illustrated Book" is quite failure.
Gui Lunmei plays Lin Yishan from Tainan. After visiting Taipei once in high school, she yearns for this big city. But obviously the director and screenwriter have no foundation in how to perform "big cities".
The foggy residential buildings look like second-tier cities with bad weather.
Lin Yishan walked on the streets of Taipei and sighed, "The girls here are so different." The passers-by photographed by
is completely unrelated to fashionable and avant-garde, and does not have the spirit of a big woman.
If you really don’t know how to perform “different”, it’s better to just hand in a brand-name bag and show your logo on your clothes in a straightforward way. The earthy flavor of "Duanmu took me to Metersbonwe " naturally does not reflect the "no-mu" momentum in the line "is not afraid of anything" in the line.
Look at Lin Yishan who finally came to Taipei after graduating from university.
She dragged her luggage tiredly, and her eyes were full of stars at this dream city. You think the next shot should be high-rise buildings, handsome men and beautiful women, and luxurious cars, and they should be at the level of "Tiny Times 5.0 Taipei Times".
But what catches your eye is alleys full of electric cars.
One after another, the iron gate cannot be spared.
It’s not that these literary alleys are not fresh, but Lin Yishan is desperately trying to come from Tainan to Taipei because the two cities are “different in the world”. Even if Taipei does not have the Bund Iron Triangle, at least you can take a picture of Breeze Plaza .
Girls in small towns will inevitably feel that the prices are too high and life is not easy.
But like Lin Yishan, who sighed in front of the Tianjin scallion pancake stall, is really the first person.
On the one hand, it represents a metropolis, which is not enough to see. Secondly, Tainan is not that broken, at least the atmosphere of the coffee shop is really not lost (Tainan picture below).
This makes Lin Yishan's yearning for a very flat and flat.
By the way, I would like to remind everyone that Taiwan Province is a small island, and the distance between Tainan and Taipei is only 300 kilometers (about equal to Shanghai to Nanjing).The price of taking the train is about RMB 100 (about 5 hours and 40 minutes) and the high-speed rail is RMB 300 (about 1 hour and 45 minutes).
Even audiences from Taiwan have difficulty empathizing with : Whether it is to benchmark north or Tokyo, the "urban-rural difference" and "way" from small counties to metropolis is difficult to create a very huge difference.

Why is Taipei women like this
"Taipei Women's Picture Book" really wastes Gui Lunmei. She has a face that is not fighting for anything, but she is the best at playing a female role who has ideas and dares to act.
But Lin Yishan's personality is neither warm nor popular enough, and her ideas and actions are all slack, and she has no charm at all.
Before going to Taipei, he kept saying "Only by leaving here can you become the me in your dream." After arriving in Taipei, she was exposed everywhere that she could not have dreams at all.
interviewed the cosmetics company but was not prepared; he entered the company through shallow relationships, but he did not know how to advance and retreat, and was stubborn as a Taiwanese drama heroine in the millennium; after being fired, he worked as a customer service in the mask company for two years, and his life was tight, and when he went out to have dinner with friends, he had to calculate the price of ordering one more dish.
In order to save money, it is normal for the "Beijing drifters" to rent a house on the 5th and 6th Ring Road. This compromise is to have a better life one day.
But in order to save money, Lin Yishan lives in New Taipei , and rides an electric bike across the bridge to work in Taipei every day - she feels very stable in this kind of life and there is no need to change jobs.
My cousin saw that she was unhappy and mocked her: "You are really a person who is suitable for staying in the comfort zone."
There is nothing wrong with staying in the comfort zone, but it really doesn't match the character who is determined to enter Taipei.
Of course, the plot requires Lin Yishan to wake up, but the way she wakes up is snobbish and white lotus - she is not actively seeking new opportunities, but breaking up with her meticulous boyfriend, calling it "What we want is different."
lacks enterprising spirit at work, but puts the pot on the lover's head. Love and career are obviously no contradiction at this moment! Are the two people looking for different things? I just dislike the other party not being rich enough.
people are crying, but how can they be like a scumbag who is eager to get rid of the oil bottle? The plot of
is really vulgar and rigid.
What makes people feel more unnecessary is that the director is like a student who writes topics and compositions, desperately "clicking on the topic".
"How is the real Taipei people?" "How is the Taipei women?" A person is good because "she is Taipei people", and stupid because "she is not Taipei people"... This kind of regional discrimination that makes Lin Yishan always feel inferior when she just broke Gong Mingbakala's crystal cup.
What she thought was not "I want to be a better self", but "become a Taipei person", but she herself was vague about the concept of Taipei person.
It is precisely this attitude that makes it difficult for us to believe that Lin Yishan will succeed in Taipei one day.
When I thought about the filming of this drama, I really don’t know if it was specifically here to hack the local area.

compared with "Tokyo Women's Picture Book"
backwards for 20 years
"Tokyo Women's Picture Book", Aya went to Tokyo from Akita Prefecture to work hard, faced her desire frankly, and admitted that what she yearned for was a bizarre metropolis, the upper class, and the money.
Tokyo provides her with such a stage, she is right.
Ling's values may not be correct, nor is it necessary to like her. There are also old-fashioned plots in the play. But the reason why we can give it a high score of 8.6 is not only because of the real feeling of wandering in big cities, but also because Ayan shows a way of living that is difficult for women in previous TV series.
This way of living is not just about having ambition, but about acting.
"Tokyo Women's Picture Book"
After watching two episodes of "Taipei Women's Picture Book", people can't understand the reason why Lin Yishan came to Taipei.
Taipei is not prosperous, there are no more opportunities, and the social environment is not tolerant. Taipei has become a place that only shines in the lines.
Correspondingly, Lin Yishan is also a person who only has ambition in his lines. She said she wanted to buy a house in Taipei and wanted to be rich, but she was satisfied with her boyfriend's kitchen and love, and never took the initiative to step out, and her ability to move was almost zero.
She is a very simple woman with no professional ideals, neither wanting to have big meals nor living in a luxury house, and having no interest in luxury goods. Even if you are extremely poor, you have to drink the northwest wind if you lose your job, and you have to risk being fired for your colleagues.
His boyfriend advised her to consider herself, but she disliked her boyfriend's tyranny. The plot of
is like a Taiwanese romance drama that would not become popular 20 years ago. Anyway, all the poor, dull and ignorant heroines will wait for her domineering president.
But in order to restore the development direction of "Tokyo Women's Picture Book", Lin Yishan inexplicably dumped her boyfriend and prepared to climb up.
You can imagine that the values will continue to sway. A Taipei woman with ambitions are not open enough, once again clashed with stereotype .
Thinking of the "Beijing Women's Picture Book" and "Shanghai Women's Picture Book" at that time. Although these two metropolises caught the prosperous background of the story, they also had their own problems.
The sticky protagonist's character and stereotyped female group portraits, and then the Mary Sue in reality will become suspended as the performance
picture series has long fallen into clichés.
