Recently, the sweet pet drama " Qingqing Daily " adapted from the novel " Qingdeng Daily " was broadcast. I watched a few episodes after dinner. I was really happy, but I didn't expect that the more I saw it, the more I felt tired of it. Although the original book is a sweet book, the author always thinks it is a more profound book in romance. The heroine Li Wei is a modern person who traveled to the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty. Because she has lived in the Qing Dynasty since she was in her infancy, she adapted quite well in ancient times. After marrying Yinzhen (yes, it is also the familiar background of the Nine Dragons fighting for the throne), she put away her lively and cute personality when she was at her parents' home. In order to make her life better, she slowly explored Yinzhen's preferences and domesticated her 21st century self from the concept of equality for everyone, into the appearance that the "master" liked.
The heroine Li Wei has always been favoring the harem in the book, but many details make people think about it very terrifyingly. As a side room, Li Wei always felt that she was a third party, suppressing her character and unwilling to participate in the competition. Later, she gave birth to a child and became a mother. For example, as a time traveler, Li Wei had more or less understanding of the direction of history, but she never revealed anything, and never thought of giving advice to Yinzhen, because she clearly realized that in Yinzhen's eyes, she and all the women in his backyard were just pets, so if she liked it, just touch it a few more times. If she had a day to discuss national affairs, it would be like Yinzhen to hear a pug talking about human words, which was a strange phenomenon, and maybe she would kill her immediately.
Her inner monologue wrote that she always felt that Yinzhen was a beam of light that she traveled through life, but if there was a way to go back to the 21st century, who would be willing to stay in the hell without seeing the light?
The one in sharp contrast with Li Wei is Yinzhen's legitimate wife. Because she wanted to be on an equal footing with her husband, she was very determined and could not win Yinzhen's favor. In the end, she died of depression. She is a typical example of the sad ending after the female consciousness awakened. Because of this, this book gives people a very heavy feeling. Although Li Wei's life was smooth, the cruelty of man rule and the alienation of human nature in the feudal era broke the romantic fantasy of time travel novels. Some readers left a message: After reading this book, they never want to travel through time again.
The novels with the background of the Kowloon Fight for the Throne of the King of War have been filmed too many TV series, such as " The Legend of Zhen Huan ", " Step by Step 1 ", "Palace", "Dream Back to the Qing Dynasty", etc., all tell the stories of the sons of Kangxi , and the audience is probably tired of it. Therefore, it is very wise to avoid blind repetition and choose a superficial background.
The background of the play is Jiuchuan. 70 years ago, each river fought in a melee until the Lord of Xinchuan quelled the war and became the leader of Jiuchuan. Xinchuan was vast and prosperous, with men and women superior to others. Just like the feudal era hundreds of years ago, the most important emphasis on legitimate and illegitimate laws and rules; the rest of each river has their own characteristics, such as Danchuan, who is respectful to women and men, Jichuan, who pursues monogamy, Jinchuan, who is particularly good at doing business, etc. In order to stabilize the alliance, each Sichuan Association selected a woman of appropriate age to marry the young master of Shinkawa, and the story unfolded.
Honestly, when I opened "Qingqing Daily", I have watched several episodes in a row, and I can't stop smiling. Some anti-routine settings are surprising. For example, the green tea girl Hao Jia in the play has the best yin and yang skills, which makes people shine. Her childhood life experience made her not yearn for the so-called love. Her husband is more like a boss to her, and her family life is her workplace, so she undoubtedly chose the eldest son of Shinkawa, and she had the most chance to become the next boss of Shinkawa, even if she could only be a concubine. However, on the surface, she is obedient to her boss, but in fact she is not a person who can be pua. When she is tender and sweet, she does not forget to complain about her boss, which is very similar to the current working person. Moreover, she did not turn evil because her best friend’s husband had a competitive relationship with her husband. Instead, she was scolded and indifferent by her boss several times in order to protect her best friend. She is considered a very outstanding person.
However, after watching more than ten episodes in a row, I can’t stand it anymore - nothing else, I’m not bad.
is because the script is not deep enough. Although the plot setting is superficial, Xiaoyan enthusiasts who have watched too many of the nine sons' throne and the original party, many of the plots and characters in it are comparable to historical characters, but they are all smart versions. For example, Yin Zheng, the male protagonist with Yinzhen, should know that Yinzhen had a good relationship with the prince in the early stage, and was still a secret Eighth Master Party . In short, he was a slippery person. He had been silently cultivating his own power and only began to show off in the later stages. But Yin Zheng had always shown himself as poor health. He began to seize the emperor's attention as soon as he became an adult, and later gave him the emperor a bad job. He was also the favorite dramas of the Qing Dynasty dramas, the emptiness of the national treasury, etc., but the problem can be solved by verbal tricks and cannot be believed by the audience. In fact, there are too many slogans in the play, and there are many places where the plot is thin.
The second thing is the character setting. I have to say that although this drama has the original work, the plot direction has basically nothing to do with the original work. On the contrary, you can see the shadow of many popular dramas in recent years through various routines, such as "The Rumored Chen Qianqian in " and "HTM1 Menghualu " and so on. The screenwriter also took great pains to find the audience's taste preferences from excellent works, but the first time I eat it fresh, the second time I eat it aftertaste, and the third time I eat it too tired. For example, the heroine's foodie character has long been no longer popular, but in order to show this characteristic, the screenwriter puts many unreasonable plots on the heroine's head, which is really hard for the audience to like - the scene where the hero and the heroine got lost because he slipped into the Young Master's Mansion and was hungry. He found the kitchen (there was no one in the kitchen, so he wanted to poison it so easy), and ate the food originally prepared for the hero - that was a full table of dishes. Even if he was hungry, would he need to eat them all? Even if you eat them all, if you don’t run away, you will still place the leftovers on the plate to the male protagonist? Forget it, just put jade plaques that reveal their identity on the plate? If you are caught, just say you are a drug tester?
Not to mention that the heroine later was still eating barbecue in the palace, but she was punished for fire and lost the opportunity to meet her parents - the heroine, don’t care about what she sees. Are you a heroine or a female pig. Therefore, in order to shape the character, not having the logic and rationality of the story is an act of killing a chicken to get an egg.
After seeing these plots, the author went from being full of interest to being tasteless and giving up. The reason why I haven't given up yet is because I have been expecting the heroine to make a comeback and become smarter... It seems that she hasn't waited until she gave up.
is the length of the script. When I saw more than ten episodes, I had already found that this sweet drama probably couldn't write any in-depth content. I planned to pass the time by the male and female protagonists' CP. As a result, the emotional line progressed extremely slowly, and it was all boring plots. I understood the length of episode 40 - the screenwriter started to pour water. In fact, since you don’t have any ambition to make a serious drama, it’s enough to shoot a sweet drama for about 20 episodes. For example, " Chen Qianqian ", the 20 episodes make the plot very concentrated, and there are but not many side plots. Just click to stop, giving the audience full imagination space, while giving most of the plot to the male and female protagonists. The progress is rapid and there is no point in urine. In addition, the plot is fresh and respecting the audience’s intelligence. Although the later trend is a bit unfinished, it is completely worthy of the audience’s time. At this point, "Qingqing Daily" is suspected of not distinguishing between the main and the second. There are nine young masters, almost every young master has a lot of roles. Just the five young masters chase their wife, they repeat it again and again - one round of energy, and then decline again and again, and three times, chasing a wife repeatedly, and the audience just wants to fast forward in front of the screen.
I got tired of it and got tired of it. Finally, I could only give up the show and finally sighed: It's a pity to open high and close low.
