By catching up with the online drama "Chen Qianqian in Rumors" with only 24 episodes on demand in advance, I seem to understand the reason why Douban130,000 comments on this drama are still firm at 7.5 points.
A small-budget online drama can become a dark horse outside the circle. So far, it has gained a large number of fans, and the degree of discussion remains high, but it is because vulgar romance routines have absurd and spectacular "God assists" in details-
Teasing an illusory world of ancient patriarchal society lightly satirizes the cruel reality that still exists in contemporary society, all kinds of discrimination and prejudice against women, and the survival dilemma of women in the new era.
A prophet in books, in a society that respects women.
Similar to the plot setting in Ruoyun Zhang's TV series Joy of Life, the seventh-rate screenwriter Chen Xiaoqian in Chen Qianqian in Gossip accidentally got stuck in her script and became her vicious female companion Chen Qianqian.
There are two cities in the unreal world, with different views on gender. Hu Xuan is superior to women, and Huayuan is superior to men. Chen Qianqian, Princess of Huayuan City, with her insight into the overall situation and kindness in her heart, turned Gan Kun from a supporting role that was originally shared by people and gods into a heroine, and joined hands with Touy, the young master of Hu Xuan City, to resolve the war and gender conflict between the two cities, and they finally became lovers.
Some people don't like this story just because of its conception and theme. The rumored Chen Qianqian has no relatively grand pattern. There is no passion for home and country, only beautiful romance-
In the overhead historical background, let's take a look at the hero and heroine from ignorance of love to you and me, addicted to sweet love fantasy. In the depths of the soul, this is just a sweet costume drama.
At first, I thought Chen Qianqian in Gossip was a "female drama". I expect Chen Qianqian to make contributions with her own talents in the time and space dominated by women's discourse, and expect her to independently "accuse and promote" her own history of women's struggle under numerous difficulties. But looking back on the whole drama, I found that Chen Qianqian, who was originally from the perspective of God, failed to become an excellent "chess player" who controlled the overall situation.
Even though she knows the fate of everyone and the direction of the whole story, she has not achieved much on the road of "changing her life" for herself. Most of the time, she only lived to the end of the play, relying on the protagonist's aura and the "golden finger" given by the screenwriter, and saved the day step by step, just "by mistake" and "unintentionally"
Aside from the high love between the hero and heroine, "Chen Qianqian in Gossip" is really hard to be regarded as a meticulous work-
The so-called palace fights and power fights have no technical content. The struggle for official position and usurpation in Bloodstained is also a naive "play house". Huayuan City, which lives in dire straits, has no sense of urgency of "the country will die". The king and his political enemies, the princess and his subjects ... One second, it was "either you die or I die", and the next second, it was a handshake, and everyone was happy and happy.
As a travelogue with an overhead history, Joy of Life is not only full of flesh and blood for the hero and heroine, but also flexible and three-dimensional in shaping the supporting role. Teng, who is sincere and affectionate, Wang Qinian, who loves his wife and protects his daughter, Versace, who is pure and kind, and princess royal, the Qing Emperor and the Second Prince, who are called villains but have hierarchical ideas, all have a complicated side of human nature.
On the other hand, in "Chen Qianqian in Rumors", a group of supporting roles become tools to strengthen contradictions and conflicts and promote the development of the plot-
The face of Chen Chuchu, the hero of the Second County, is full of ambition, but the so-called sense of existence is to oppose for the sake of opposition, and his IQ is worrying, and he has failed from beginning to end;
Pei Heng went all over Chen Qian's brain for a love calligraphy and painting, and loved for love. With his extraordinary knowledge, he settled down in Huayuan City, a society that values girls over girls. He didn't see any merit except how to become an excellent "flower-protecting loyal dog".
The Lord of Huayuan seems to know everything in his mind, but he is eccentric for the sake of eccentricity. He repeatedly ignored the people of his country and allowed villains to be "demons" indefinitely. ...
Only superficial appearance has no soul, so that people are doomed to weaken because of thinness.
As a romantic drama, Chen Qianqian in Gossip has never left the box. Chen Chuchu, a fan who loves Touy deeply, and Pei Heng, a madman who loves Chen Qianqian deeply, have a network of relationships between male and female protagonists, just like the configuration of typical romantic Korean dramas that swept the world more than ten years ago.
The first hero must have a black-bellied woman he likes. If he can't get it, he will continue to create trouble for the relationship between the hero and heroine. Female number one should also have a man who loves without regrets, waits for infatuation, and does not die.
Nevertheless, the rumored Chen Qianqian has captured many fans.
First, because dynasties and history are overhead, you don't need to use heavy history as a standard to measure whether its scenes, logic and other details are in line with reality. Instead, we can pay more attention to its storyline and tolerate the roughness and other shortcomings of the service.
Second, because the lines in the play are funny, the plot is hilarious, and the stalks that make people laugh are endless, which completely makes you forget whether there is a deep meaning behind the entanglement.
Thirdly, the characters of the hero and heroine are unique: Chen Qian, who was spoiled and willful, was loved by her mother and wanted to entrust her with an important task, but she was unexpectedly loved by others because she was ignorant and idle; Touy, who was supposed to be ruthless, turned into a crazy woman who doted on her wife as soon as she saw the princess, filled her brain with love, and finally gave her life for love. The heroine's fighting power is sometimes strong and sometimes weak, and she is conscious of her emotions. The hero is not a overbearing president-type warm man setting, such a pair of CP, it is difficult to think about it.
The most important point is that Chen Qianqian, a rumor monger, wrote a transposition of the state that men are superior to women. The garden city built by Chen Xiaoqian in the script, with a meaningless social system that respects women, has formed a completely upside-down contrast with Hu Xuancheng, achieved a dramatic effect with a fictional imbalance between men and women, poked the pain points of women in reality and made a joke-
The situation of men in Huayuan City is like this: if they can't have a daughter, the husband is the culprit. Not only will he be discriminated against by his wife, but he will also beat and scold: "It's a boy again, you are going to ruin our family!" ;
Remember that "the virtue of men", without the opportunity to go to public schools, it is difficult to enter the official career and become an official in the DPRK;
Their status is low, and the only way to achieve class leap is to "marry" a good family, but if they don't care about their wives, they will divorce at any time.
If they dress casually and frivolous, it's because they don't know how to behave. ...
Familiar scenes and arguments make a very accurate mockery of the patriarchal society in ancient times and even the reality that some places still value boys over girls today.
Many people think that the title of Chen Qianqian in Rumors is the pursuit of equality between men and women, but the core is suspected of overemphasizing women's rights, which I think is incorrect.
Later, Chen Qianqian came to Huxuan City with Touy and saw another world completely opposite to Huayuan City: women are unwilling to marry, and more and more women are willing to make peace with their husbands; The duke's wife once helped her husband gain supreme power on behalf of her father, and her ability was better than her husband's. However, like many women in Xuanhu City, she wants to find herself again. ...
It simply and directly reflects the social crux caused by gender inequality in different times and environments.
As a matter of fact, Chen Qianqian in "Rumors" mainly focuses on romance, supplemented by satire, and the focus is still on expressing love between men and women. This is just a way to make fun of our real society by comparing the two city-states in our leisure time. In addition to the topic of gender equality, it also involves hot topics such as coronation right, women's independent consciousness, how to balance career and family, and how to control their own destiny.
Through the growth of Chen Qianqian, during this "journey", she realized the concept of love, reshaped her understanding of the world, and exported an idea that she even expressed in this play:
Extreme male superiority is not true equality between men and women, and everyone should have the same rights regardless of gender.
? "Women's marriage and divorce" sued the Civil Affairs Bureau, and women's newspapers commented that the revocation of "married" could not always be forced by public opinion.
? Women's Daily commented that marriage and childbearing should be free.
