This time the drama shortage, coincidentally, by the university classmates amenable to an old drama. I was holding a casual attitude to pass the time, but I did not expect to see it all at once, and it took less than a week to finish watching this 40-episode TV series in one breath.
Although this 1996 movie has a blurry picture quality and outdated costumes, it looks like it was produced decades ago, but classics never go out of style, right?
The name of the show, I Have a Date with Spring, is a bit confusing at first glance.
What does spring evoke? Flowers blooming, love coming, or a story beginning? But no matter what, spring is the season when everything begins, so read on.
The story begins with a singing contest, where the winner gets the chance to sing at the Lilika Palace.
What is the Lai Fa Palace? It was a famous nightclub in Hong Kong at that time. When you think of nightclubs, you may have images of pandemonium in your mind, but the nightclubs in Hong Kong in the 1960s were not what you think, they were a serious place to talk business and meet friends.
The protagonists of the story make their debut in this game, and the play slowly kicks off.
The song is a melodious, low-toned tune that speaks of a hundred turns of the heart and a thousand sorrows.
Blue Fengping's life, this song is enough to summarize.
Her mother was just a humble concubine, her father was very sick and bedridden, and her father's first wife (who was also her mother) saw them as an eyesore, and hated to throw them out as soon as possible.
For the big mother's scolding insults, her mother will only let her tolerate, and even to return the favor. As time passes, she probably really feels that she is being bullied and humiliated as a matter of course. She didn't realize that even if her birth mother had been a concubine, she was just not good enough, but she was so innocent as a child that she could not choose her own origin. The birth mother's humility and coyness has made her take her birth as the original sin, and become a lifelong lingering shackle.
After the death of her mother, she lived a hard life, lonely and unable to find a way out. In the most difficult time, a man named Donny appeared. He is quite handsome and articulate, and he is quite sincere to her. Since this is the case, Feng Ping feels that she has found someone she can rely on.
She is the most average singer among the four sisters, but the most beautiful one. Therefore, mounting the stage and appearing in front of the eyes of the crowd, what people appreciate is not her song, but her beautiful appearance.
There is no shortage of wannabes who want to get their hands on her, but there are also those like Sheng who truly adore her.
Donny is not a good person, he is a gambler, he borrows money all over the place, and when he is forced by the debt collectors to stay in Hong Kong, he has to go to Vietnam, where there is a lot of war, to make money.
If Feng Ping had been more selfish, perhaps she would have chosen Sheng. In today's eyes, Sheng is a perfect man in every aspect. He is a man of love and righteousness, and he is also rich and powerful, so if he follows this kind of man, he should have an easier life.
But Fengping was not moved at all.
Because Donny was with her during her most difficult time, she had to spend her whole life to repay him, no matter if Donny was worthy of her trust. But I think the most important reason is not repayment, but the insecurity that she feels from the bottom of her heart that she is not worthy of Sang's brother, right? She is just the daughter of a concubine, her status is lowly, how can she be worthy of such happiness? It was probably better for her to follow Donny and suffer. The feeling of inferiority engraved in her bones makes her live carefully, not daring to cross the line in the slightest.
Admittedly, Donny hopes that he can give Fengping happiness, and also after so many things happened, he tried to change his ways. It's just that not all mistakes can be turned back, the chances given by God are limited, and most people don't have much luck. One wrong step at a time, and in the end, this pair of bitter lovebirds was blown up in Vietnam, and became a lonely ghost who died in a foreign land.
Jin Lulu and Lan Fengping are the complete opposite of each other. If Lan Fengping is the bleak moon, then Jin Lulu is the bright sun, always launching light and heat to the surroundings without stinting.
She is passionate. When she first met Xiaodie, she invited her to a friend's birthday party. The second time they met, they lent their favorite high heels to Xiaodie on stage. Her mother accused her of being silly and generous, beware of being robbed of the limelight, but she had an attitude of indifference.
She is big-hearted. Although she grew up without a father, her unreliable mother forced her to perform on stage when she was five years old to earn money to support the family. Even when she was sick, she had to be double-checked by her mom before she could take a leave of absence. But she didn't feel sorry for herself, she fought with her mom all day long and enjoyed herself.
She is optimistic, although she has been singing for so many years have not been red, but the good sister Xiaodie a song after the popularity of her, but she did not have a little bit of jealousy, more than their own red is still happy. Her life follows the principle of taking one step at a time, the future is so far away, it is better to be happy now. Some people may say that this is called self-paralysis and lack of vision. But how can there be so much vision in this world? It's only when you make the right decision that you have vision, and when you make the wrong decision, it's called regret. I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do that, but I'm going to be able to do it," he said.
My favorite thing about Lulu is that she is wearing a gold dress, her hair is coiled high, and she is saying her catchphrase, "It doesn't matter", and she is proud and happy.
The girl who loves to smile has no bad luck.
So, she is also the most happy ending among the four sisters. Although her career has not been successful, but in the end, she married the silly big chicken Lu, so by mistake, she became the boss of the Lai Fa Palace. It was only after twenty years that she was able to keep Laihua in its original form.
Yao Xiaodie returned to China and opened a concert at Lifa. Sitting in the dressing room, a moment as if back to twenty years ago, the four good sisters together on stage years.
Jin Lulu is a hidden thread that strings this drama together, and without her, it wouldn't be so colorful.
Hong Lianxi was originally known as Hong Dai Di.
She hates being called by that name, probably not because she dislikes the dirt, but because she doesn't want to intersect with the past that the name represents.
She was an orphan girl, raised in a church orphanage since childhood. Because of her stubborn and unpleasant personality, she was often abused by the headmistress of the orphanage, and her own sister played a trick on her to take away the chance of adoption that should have belonged to her.
It seems that her life before the age of eighteen was miserable. A girl who grows up like this is probably either weak or rebellious, and Lianci is the second kind.
She is not afraid of being punished, she is not afraid of being blocked, she tries her best to fight for her own opportunities, she is bold and courageous, and she is the boss of a group of orphanage girls.
She likes to sing English songs, and she sings them very well.
The lights are dim, wearing a red dress, sitting in the light and shadow, only a low and gentle song from the stage leisurely floating, in this large ballroom dissipated.
It's just that people don't appreciate it, they want hot, worldly songs, and don't need or want such heavy sentiments. As a result, Lianxi seems to have fewer admirers, both at Lifa and Play Boy Bar, and is therefore always a bit depressed, and somewhat jealous of Xiaodie's good fortune.
Once in a bad mood, the dispute process to reveal the bottom of the heart.
Just like each of us, the side of the journey together with their friends far behind, about the heart will always have a little uncomfortable. But also just think about it in your heart, and even shame yourself for thinking this way, but never do anything to jeopardize your friends. Nowadays, in many TV dramas, because of a little thing, and good friends turn against each other, even to the death. I just want to ask, is this a good friend? Is it a masochistic tendency to be good friends with people of such character?
The so-called good friends, you developed when she looked far away, will not be icing on the cake, but when you are down, she is definitely a helping hand, snow in the carbon.
Lianxi is a strong person, but fate always likes to play tricks on her.
After she got the chance to perform in Las Vegas, and was ready to marry her boyfriend Jhon, and even thought about adopting a child in the future, she was diagnosed with cancer.
Maybe it's because of her bad lifestyle, smoking, drinking and staying up late.
Maybe it was because of her poor lifestyle, smoking, drinking, and staying up late at night, but more likely it was because, as the Bible says, "to everyone who has, more will be added," and "to the one who does not have, even all that he has will be taken away from him.
I've seen a lot of examples of people who have worked hard for half their lives and finally made it to the top, only to be killed in an accident or have their illnesses taken away from them. The only way to get to the top of the list is to have a good time," he said.
The only consolation is that in the end, Lianxi died in the arms of her lover, she had no one to rely on for half of her life, and before she died, it was fortunate that there were people who did not leave her alone.
When watching the drama with the pop-up screen on, there are always people saying that Shang Tian'e is old and ugly. But in that era of backward make-up and lighting, and no retouching, it's already time to laugh, okay? Besides, Shang Tian'e's eyes are very beautiful, and in close-ups, they seem to have stars glittering in them. The woman's eyes are so beautiful that she seems to have stars in her eyes when she is in a close-up.
Yao Xiaodie is the first female lead in the drama. She likes to wear white clothes and carry white jewelry. Even if she adds a splash of color, it is only light pink, light blue, light gold, and never flashy. White is the color of purity, but white is also the color formed by combining many colors. When designing Xiaodie's look, will the stylist also consider the fact that the character of the other three heroines in the drama is reflected in Xiaodie?
Yao Xiaodie's background is considered the best among the four sisters, at least she has no worries about food and clothing, and even has money to learn typing in a training class. Although her parents divorced when she was very young, her father, grandmother, and Auntie Xian all loved her very much, and she was one of the least loved in the show.
In her career, she has been lucky enough to win her first singing competition, and successfully got the chance to sing at Lai Fa. She is also a hard worker, and when she was learning to sing from Bai Lang, she was the only one of the four sisters who could stand Bai Lang's test and persevered. Afterwards, she became famous because of a song written by Ka Ho. The company has also signed a contract with a record company to attend various events, successfully sitting on the throne of the first sister of the singing world.
It can be said that success is really a mixture of hard work and luck.
Xiaodie is as stubborn as Lianxi, she is determined to do something, even if she hits the south wall, she will not turn back. Just like singing, her family is against it, but she insists on singing. Just like the love with Jiahao, there are many bumps in the road, but has not been willing to find another person.
Xiaodie is as infatuated as Fengping. She is willing to wait for him year after year until she is over 40 years old, but she is not willing to get married. She is not waiting for love, probably she can't get over the hurdles in her heart, she wants to be a statement, to be the year the reason for missing the appointment. The first time I saw this, I was able to see that the whole thing was a bit of a joke, and I was able to see that the whole thing was a joke.
The small butterfly is as kind as Lulu. At the beginning of the first year, because of some small things and Lianxi knotted beam. But she did not because of Lianxi's cold face and her feud, but to find ways to resolve, and finally to sincerely impress Lianxi, turning enemies into friends. Sisters who have difficulties, Xiaodie will always find ways to lend a helping hand, can be said to be heavy feelings and righteousness.
But in addition to this, Xiaodie is also very selfish.
She has a lot of family members, but because of the unsuccessful love affair with Jiahao, she ran away to Canada to stay for more than twenty years, and seldom contacted her family. Even when she talks to her family, her tone of voice is rusty, and her affection is so thin that it makes people feel cold.
She learned to sing with Bai Lang. When Bai Lang was the most popular, she first appeared, Bai Lang but hot eyes said two acidic words, the action did not suppress her, she is also considered to have the grace of lifting. But when Bai Lang was down and out, she only looked on with cold eyes, and never said a word for Bai Lang. At that time, she has been very red, if she is willing to help Bai Lang, he will not end up mixed to such a miserable, they are also considered to return a favor.
Probably Yao Xiaodie's heart, only loaded with people she really cares about.
It doesn't matter if the comments are good or bad, the world is not perfect.
It is said that to judge the merits of a work, we have to look at its supporting cast. So I have a date with the spring of this good drama, the supporting role of the molding is extremely successful.
Let's start with Shen Jiahao (Jiang Hua). Jiahao is a very brave person, dare to argue in front of the producer, just to write their favorite songs instead of catering to the market; dare to go to the United States alone, looking for a way out of the career; dare to adopt the child of his best friend, and spend twenty years to raise him to grow up. But when it comes to love, he is a complete and utter coward.
His girlfriend, Yao Xiaodie, is more famous than him, so he is always in front of her, and his fragile self-esteem is always shattered by some seemingly trivial matters. He is still a bit chauvinistic in his bones, and thinks that if his girlfriend is better than him, he will not be able to hold his head up in front of people.
He should like Xiaodie. But he is cowardly not willing to give Xiaodie a commitment to get along for so long, every step is almost Xiaodie in the step closer, Jiahao did if not step back has let the audience hanging heart a little down.
Xiaodie originally thought that they were in love, but the sad thing is that, more than 40 episodes of the TV series, Jiahao never said a word of "love" to Xiaodie.
After she became famous, Xiaodie was like the most brilliant rose, blooming her splendor to the fullest. The first time I saw her was when she was a young girl, and she had to go to the hospital to see her husband, but she didn't want to. She waited for three years, and when all she got was the news that Jiahao had refused the appointment, she couldn't even stay on the stage, and chose to retire suddenly when her career was in full bloom.
People may say that Shen Jiahao is too bad, not good enough for Yao Xiaodie.
But Shen Jiahao's person, handsome and talented, is the girl's favorite type. For the master, he is a good disciple, filial piety and understanding, but also hard work and progress. To his disciples, he is a good senior, righteous and talented, the backbone when they are helpless, and always the first to give a helping hand when they are in trouble. To his colleagues, he is a kind-hearted person who is willing to teach newcomers. For example, when Lianxi was teased by the musicians when she first came to Laihua, Jiahao apologized to Lianxi on their behalf; for example, when Bai Lang was down in the dumps, he took the initiative to write a new song for him to help him revive his career. He can afford all of them, but he only apologizes to Yao Xiaodie.
In love, there are no winners or losers, and there is no right or wrong.
The years are like the wind, the most unforgettable love, if not the parties involved, who can understand the flavor?
And then there's Wan Bi (played by Chen Jing Yun). This is a daring and courageous woman with a lot of love and justice. In the drama, I like Wan Bi even more than the four female leads. When she was young, she did everything she could to finance her boyfriend's study abroad, and eventually sold her sex, but because she had been in the dyke for a long time, she thought that there was no longer a future with him and broke off contact. Even when her boyfriend returned home after his studies, he went to great lengths to find her and wanted to renew his relationship with her, but because of the vast difference between the two of them, he gave up on this "high-performance stock". I believe that if Wan Bi did not mention the breakup, Huo Yao Zu could not mention the breakup, because he does not have the qualification. Everything he has, in fact, is Wan Bi sacrificed himself in exchange. Wan Bi said to break up, probably do not want to A Zu face a whole day without **** the same language of his wife, carrying the shackles of grace, live a depressed life.
She lives too much understanding, this girl, let a person both hate and heartache.
Hate that she is pure and clean, but she has to make a picture of the wind and dust. Heartache, although she is determined to advance, but always no opportunity, strength is also lacking, in private did so much, but never declared in front of people. This silly girl, obviously live this hard, outside but always a I live very well posture, even prefer to annoy people do not want to be sympathetic. She is so smart, do not know those godfather boyfriend simply rely on not know? It's just that the mask has been on for a long time and she can't take it off. Those men treat her as a plaything, but do you know that she also cares nothing about them? On the stage, she was dressed up in a glamorous way and sang "Love is just a common thing, it's not rare at all, men are just a pastime, what's so great about it?
Wan Bi was born in the wrong era, like her so open out, enduring down, can bend and stretch, the righteousness of the strange woman, if it is in the modern era, how to be mixed into a net red V, not like the drama, forty-something years old, but also with a group of young girls to go to fight for the prize money of the beauty contest.
All of the tragedies are just a sigh of relief for the future generations.
Then came Bai Lang (Li Daohong test), Bai Lang was the most dazzling star at that time. He could not care less about the eyes of the investors, and only scored the contestants according to his own preferences. The first thing you need to do is to get your hands on some of the most popular products and services in the world, and you'll be able to do it all in one place.
Bai Lang do people, do not know how to leave themselves a back way. He has been around for many years, do not know the show business this line of work, is never the fastest replacement. The first time I saw the movie, I was in the middle of it, and I was in the middle of it, and I was in the middle of it, and I was in the middle of it, and I was in the middle of it. He is too proud, living like his representative work "diamond diamond bright crystal", he thinks he is a diamond, can be like the stars in the sky as long-lasting. But did not expect people like new and old speed so fast, and even if it is a diamond, see a long time is also tired.
So how did he taunt the old man, who was a hundred times more miserable than others after he went out of fashion?
How to say it, when watching the show will be very saddened by Bai Lang's encounter, probably a kind of hero at the end of the road, but the world is so, probably will be more exaggerated than the play.
I just can't get over the shot of Bai Lang in his sequined white costume, holding a huge prop diamond in his hand, glowing with pride, singing "Sexy girl on the doorstep, give her two big slaps", and proudly letting people know that it probably won't end well for this guy.
There's also Big Chicken Lu, Yao Tianqi, Uncle Bao, Ma Lili, Flutterby - every supporting character has flesh and blood. We all have our own happy troubles, the days are not really smooth but the confidence has been in, just like the ordinary people in the world, the road to the world of all kinds of things. If I were to tell them all, I'm afraid I'd have to write a few more.
I often see people lamenting that the current TV series is more and more unattractive.
I would like to say, that is of course, because the work of art is the processing of life. If there's no life left and processing is all that's left, then isn't it just a glossy package?
You love me and I love you, you hate me and I hate you, love the heaven and earth, hate the heaven and earth, so what? The reality is that there will be such a volcanic eruption of feelings, encountered things, but happy or sad for a while, and then how the life should be how to continue.
The persona is thin, all rely on the screenwriter YY Mary Sue, Jack Sue drama, maybe the audience at first glance will be attracted by the clothing effects, but have seen it on the have seen, absolutely will not produce this **** Ming, and will not want to see the second time. And the heart polishing production of a good show, it is a long time new, the more taste more flavor.
I heard that Hunan TV also remade a version of "Love in Spring", I watched an episode and gave up.
Because I didn't watch the whole thing, and I don't want to comment on the acting and drama and so on, but I just don't feel like it's the right flavor. Now the remake of the old drama, can no longer shoot the original flavor.
I don't know why, but with better technology and equipment, it's always less refined and elegant than before.
Maybe the real good things can not be copied.
The past prosperity is a dream, the clouds are scattered and left empty, the song is over, and then look back is a hundred years body.
