The rural ethical dramas of the 1990s were "fence women and dogs", "trips over the man's woman", "women are not the moon", "late at night" and other inspirational or light-hearted subject matter, relatively grounded, and the central values of the introduction of the upwardly mobile, the actors play a natural, large to the response to the national policy, as small as the neighbors between the idle knocking teeth, so the audience has a sense of agency. The movie is a good example of this.
At the beginning of the 21st century, light comedy and warmth is the main theme of the countryside ethical drama, Zhao Benshan, Fan Wei, a pair of comedy companions led the starring role in the "Horse Marshal" will be the stage of the Spring Festival Gala moved to the screen, so that the people will be the sketches watched a pain in the ass. After the "rural love" is the northeast countryside comedy pushed to a climax, since a series, there is a tendency to flourish. At the time of the Northeast countryside comedy screen, "Warm Spring" came out of nowhere, earned many people's tears, but also from the beginning of this drama, many people converge on the countryside emotional problems.
Unfortunately, the 21st century has only been the past ten years, rural ethical drama to a magical direction to run off, simple stuffed into a large number of blood feelings, kindness evolved into a Mary Sue, interpersonal conflict enlarged to the level of strange, the protagonist will always be in the forbearance, you abused me a thousand times I still smile and forgive, victory only rely on kindness and love. And I don't know is less money can't invite too many actors or how, a lot of rural ethical drama heroine obviously over forty, but also combed up the twisted braid to play the young girl, Wang Xihua in the "years persimmon red" played a young girl who is not familiar with the world, there is the acting skills but not the image of a bad match ah.
In fact, counting from ancient times to the present, from inside to outside of the playbook: Yuan dynasty drama, Qing dynasty playbook, Republic of China house fighting, Hong Kong drama, Taiwan eight o'clock file, the story construction is simply no change, the villain oppresses the protagonist, the protagonist reversed the antagonist, in love and forgiveness to reach a successful and reconciled with the end. China's traditional values are to punish evil and promote goodness, eulogize the good and beautiful, attack the false, evil and ugly, the good will eventually defeat the evil, good people lifelong security. Assuming that the protagonist is a woman, that her abuse and confrontation will be more able to stimulate the audience's desire to watch, because they are the embodiment of the weak, indomitable stand up and win more so that the ideal of the men and women to compensate for the psychological: she can, why can't I?
Often control remote control is mostly older middle-aged and older people, their growth environment and rural ethical dramas in the background of the period closer, many often washed up on the hot searches of the "family of origin patriarchal", "merciful tough Mary Sue" and so on in their lives. "and so on in the course of their life is not strange. So it's far more enjoyable to watch the white-collar women in urban dramas fight it out in the workplace than it is to watch the harsh sisters-in-law at each other's throats in countryside bloodshed dramas.
"My mother Tian Xiaocao", the heroine experienced the father of the acoustic family gambling, her husband paralyzed and died of illness, sisters-in-law difficult to set up and so on the dilemma, but she is still strong and courageous, has played odd jobs, stalls, nanny, from the countryside to the city hard to take up the burden of supporting a family, and to the pinnacle of life. This would have been very inspirational, but in order to highlight the benevolence and patience of Tian Xiaocao, it was added to the son was bullied and did not say anything, the life-saving money was cheated away also endured, sister-in-laws with outsiders injured and killed my family members she also forgave the ...... to show the minutiae of life with the perspective of the common people, and in this way to trigger the audience to think about it, and get the philosophy of life worthy of self-creation!
This was originally the original intention of the countryside drama and ethical drama, but now it has been distorted and become a channel for recalling the bitter days and venting emotions, leaving a lot of dross~
It is true that the "good man is safe for life" was a cultural phenomenon in the previous environment, but the period is changing. In the change, the good man does not mean to extinguish my seven feelings and six desires, do not know the opposite of the dough, so such a script is more and more people spit. But there is no big IP, no popular actors, no big investment, compared to other types of TV dramas, the countryside drama can only use the dog blood ethical emotions to please the market like. But this is not deep in the countryside of the ideal is not a bitter drama or funny funny family ethical drama, from time to time is not recognized by the mainstream aesthetics, but also quickly caused by watching fatigue, participate in new elements, re-decomposition of the countryside drama can not wait to do.
The Faraway Hawthorn Tree" focuses on the "sense of time", even if the background in the countryside, but that very characteristic of the era bred a variety of young people, the vast land and the richness of the human nature of the interplay; and before the acclaimed from time to time "Ordinary World" is in the base of the big IP reproduced the book of the world, let the countryside story more cultural. The world, so that the countryside story more cultural heritage; "green water and green mountains with a smile" rating is certainly not high, but efforts to integrate elements such as e-commerce, the Internet and other elements of the countryside, is considered a brand new attempt.
