In episode 35, I want to talk about Shen Tunan's wife Su Cishu, who is not mentioned by anyone, she is the epitome of most people at that time.
All along, war is a struggle between the upper classes, the people are coerced forward, the suffering does not fall on them, it is difficult for them to understand why they are fighting, why the two sides have no grievances and no enemies.
Even if an upper-class person like Su Cishu has a stronger cultural cognition than ordinary people, she didn't understand this at first, her world only has Shen Tunan, Shen Jinzhen and Xiao Yu'er, this is her country, her Xu.
For the sake of a neat and happy family, she can ignore Shen Tunan's beliefs, or she can ignore what Shen Jinzhen pursues, she doesn't understand politics, nor does she understand camp disputes, everything she knows is home.
But in episode 35, she who had never touched politics before offered to help Shen Jinzhen steal Shen Tunan's codebook, because she really realized who her enemy was, it was the rotten government.
Her daughter was sick because of Shen Tunan's work, and her mental state was not good, Shen Tunan was not accepted by her daughter because of her work, and she couldn't live the happy life she used to have.
So she had to let Shen Tunan leave the state house so that her life could get on the right track, and she also deeply understood that the people in the Soviet area where Shen Jinzhen was located could really live and work in peace and contentment, which was also a kind of awakening, and it was also a process of awakening for many people in that era.
They don't know what politics is, and they don't have access to it, but they know what home is.
Whoever is destroying their homes, who is building their homes, they will take up guns to defend when they see the killing, they will follow the right faith.
The presence of Su Cishu is not so strong, but "The Wind Chaser" makes it clear through this character that most of the people at that time were coerced, but slowly became participants, until they became builders.
In episode 36, Shen Jinzhen's sacrifice was a knife from the screenwriter.
Shen Jinzhen is the heroine of "The Wind Chaser", according to the logic of previous domestic dramas, the heroine generally ends with a happy ending, or forcibly arranges the halo of the protagonist.
But in episode 36, "The Wind Chaser" once again let us see the respect mentioned earlier, not the nothingness of bells and whistles, and the miracle of being able to turn evil into good luck every time.
The revolution is never smooth sailing, there will definitely be bloodshed and sacrifices, the common people will flow, the Red Army will flow, and Shen Jinzhen's sacrifice is truthfully restored, which is a respect for history, but also for the ancestors who overcame obstacles.
Shen Jinzhen may not have a prototype, but she is the appearance of thousands of wind chasers, for the ideal, for the revolution, for the new China, willing to protect the people with her own body, such a sacrifice is valuable and meaningful.
Unlike other domestic dramas, there will always be some meaningless sacrifices in exchange for the audience's tears, which not only distorts history, but also misleads the audience, thinking that heroes are only reckless, such TV series are full of utilitarianism, just want to be praised, but ignore the facts.
"The Wind Chaser" is a story about red finance, but I also hope that "The Wind Chaser" can become the wind chaser of domestic dramas, so that those domestic dramas who want to empathize with the audience but always underestimate the audience know what respect is, which is not only respect for history, but also respect for the audience, and TV dramas should not be made up.
The spy war drama of "Wind Chaser" does not seem to have such a large proportion, and the process is not all about the traditional spy war drama to penetrate the enemy's interior, and the plot of radio transmission of intelligence or eavesdropping, which seems a little unusual.
In other words, it's weird, but it's this kind of weirdness that brings us to see the other side of spy warfare - real, sometimes spy warfare is not necessarily a fight between you and me in the dark, and-for-tat on the surface is also a part.
So what does "The Wind Chaser" use to show this truth?
Unlike other spy war dramas, you can always get the speeches of important people on the other side, which is a difficult task to complete in real spy wars, and most spy wars are completed through the trivialities and inconspicuousness of life.
Newspapers are all over the streets, they are important tools of public opinion, but they are also tools that do not attract much attention, the design of "The Wind Chaser" is a pun, one to show Wei Ruolai's character characteristics, good at analysis, and two to let the audience see the other side of the real spy war.
For example, Shen Tu Nandeng Bao asked Wei Ruolai to come up with the reserve price of tungsten sand sold through the newspaper, all this is just because Wei Ruolai has the habit of reading the newspaper, but this attention has become the key to Wei Ruolai's tungsten sand trading.
Wei Ruolai thinks of newspapers, and with the help of newspapers, his ability and thinking are not groundless, miracles from the sky, but the director has paved the relevant plots in the previous plot.
For example, when he was in Shanghai, the walls of his home were plastered with newspapers, which shows that he loves to read newspapers, and used the information in the newspapers to see the financial means used by Shen Tunan when he first arrived in Shanghai, so as to enter the central bank.
After feeling the decay of the national government, he cooperated with Lao Xu to expose their internal flies and dogs, and the method used was also in the form of newspapers, and now newspapers have become an important point to break the situation, in contrast to the previous parts, which shows that the structure of the play is tightly integrated, and every reversal is rigorously interpreted.
In addition to the maturity of the script, the last two episodes also have the sublimation of the characters.
Each used their own beliefs to realize their original ambitions, completed intertextuality in terms of characters, and did not commit the common problems of domestic dramas, and in the end, the setting of the characters collapsed.
Wei Ruolai appeared in the first act, his ambition is to serve the country and achieve a career, and after getting acquainted with Shen Tunan, he became a close mentor and apprentice with him, hoping to fight hand in hand.
Shen Tunan is dedicated to the country, even if he wants to do practical things for the country and the people, and he is like a brother to Wei Ruolai, admiring his original intention and talent, and hoping that he can do the same.
In the end, the two of them went on the road they insisted on, fighting side by side, Shanghai was their starting point, and meeting again was another starting point, they changed, but they didn't change.
The characters' beliefs are the same as always, but they have all completed their growth and transformation.
This step-by-step deconstruction method is as fast and slow as possible, and the audience is comfortable watching it, but there is also reluctance, because the whole drama is over, but if there is a second season, the story will be extremely dangerous, because the Battle of Songhu broke out in the second year of Wei Ruolai and Gu Yan (Shen Tunan) docking in Shanghai, and Shanghai fell.
