"East Fourth Archway East" is a new work by Guo Baochang, who directed "The Gate of the Great Mansion", and the actors are starring Fu Dalong and Hao Lei.
From the director to the actor, the production of "East Fourth Arch Building East" is top-notch.
But the reputation of the play is not very good.
《East Fourth Arch Building East》
For example, the former Qing Belle Halan, played by Fu Dalong, was complained by many netizens that he "played a fool".
You know, Ha Lan is the first protagonist.
In addition, the former Qingge Tong Lihua, played by Hao Lei, was also complained about by many netizens.
Just like some time ago, Xuanxuan played a big mother-level "Top Gun Master Milk" in "Top Gun Master Sister 2021".
Tong Lihua of "East Fourth Archway East" is also a big mother-level gege.
In the Qing Dynasty, the person to be married was almost not more than 20 years old, and most of them married at about 15 years old, and the youngest was 10 years old.
And Hao Lei is 43 years old.
Of course, Tong Lihua's setting is to study abroad and has been influenced by foreign culture, so this slot can also be justified.
But the worst part of the plot is that the portrayal of Japanese elements is too positive, and there is also a violation of the main story and the background of the story.
In the story line where Ha Lan and Tong Lihua became intimate, there is a more special role.
Although the importance is not large, there are not many appearances, but it is very existential.
He is a Japanese man named Mr. Kusami (Lee Hiro wook).
Kusuma was supposed to be a businessman, because of the reference to the name of a company of a commercial nature, "Yamato Trading Company".
But his details are not simple, because when Ha Lan was imprisoned as a suspect in the murder of Xie Shenqi (Liu Peiqi).
When Tong Lihua asked Kusomi for help, she said that "he knows friends in politics and the military."
The story of Kusami in the play is mainly to invite the Tong family and the Ha family to develop in Japan.
Also, Kusami has a crush on Tong Lihua and intends to marry Tong Lihua.
Knowing that Tong Lihua likes to eat jade roast, he specially made jade roast for Tong Lihua to eat.
Even if Ha Lan can release it, this Mr. Kusami also has a contribution.
In terms of shape, he wears literati glasses, a gentle and elegant, polite image.
It feels like a very positive "Japanese" character.
In addition, in Tong Lihua's personality, the most contradictory is "Japanese Tonghe likes to eat tamago ware".
This is the same as Kusuma's character development.
The Japanese elements are shaped into a very positive feeling.
It's not that there are Japanese elements, or that the positive portrayal of Japanese elements is not good.
The specific situation should be analyzed on a case-by-case basis.
What is the background of the story of "East Fourth Archway East"?
It is the scene in the early republic of China, the first episode has the Republic of China government stationed in the Forbidden City to replace the Manchu Imperial Power, so the specific time should be 1912.
Don't forget what Japan did to China during this time:
The Sino-Japanese War, the invasion of China by the Eight-Power Alliance, the colonization of the entire Korean Peninsula by Japan, and Taiwan.
In another two years, Japan forcibly occupied Qingdao, Shandong.
In another 20 years, with the Korean Peninsula as its foundation, we will gradually invade the entire land of China.
However, the screenwriter arranged that the first female protagonist is a Japanese pass, who likes Tamako yaki, and in the subtext, there seems to be a feeling of "jingri".
Especially in the Republican period, the background of the story of Japanese imperialist expansion.
Finally, another bad thing is that the life story of the play is too peaceful and detailed.
Mainly the emotional entanglement of Ha Lan, Tong Lihua, Lou Xiaoyue (Dou Xiaoxuan), and the secret story.
The dense story is fine, but the love-hate relationship of several protagonists is really inappropriate in such a chaotic background.
In particular, it has now aired 6 episodes, and they are still the emotional stories of several protagonists, and even join the emotional line of Xie Shenjian's son Xie Ban (Wang Daqi) and Ya Gui Cui'er (Xin Yue).
The most important main plot has not been seen.
