After the broadcast of "The Story of Rose", Huang Yimei and Fang Xiewen divorced, and Douban scored 7.1. More than half of the four-star and five-star reviews were received.
Although netizens in the comment area argued endlessly, saying that Fang Xiewen's paragraph was simply a bloody failure, judging from the data, Fang Xiewen single-handedly led the ratings of "The Story of Rose" to rise all the way, and the peak broke 2% at the time of divorce.
The audience on the whole network breathed a sigh of relief, and the battle to persuade Rose to divorce in the barrage was comparable to the battle of persuading Susu to jump to Sendai in the past. Netizens went to actor Lin Gengxin Weibo to scatter joy, and this huge spit and scolding war was temporarily extinguished.
Lin Gengxin himself can see it, and while being tough with netizens, he responds to the interview. When asked if actor Xiewen had a psychological disorder, he said: "I've played so many likable roles, is this still missing?" I don't think that's a standard I can't touch. ”
Lin Gengxin also laughed at himself on Weibo, and posted screenshots of his friends and his chat records, all of which complained about Fang Xiewen, and made up enough Jiugongge, one of which was an interesting comment: "The last time I had such a strong sense of substitution, it was Mama Rong." ”
The audience was so angry that Fang Xiewen's fists tightened and his blood pressure increased, and the screenwriter was probably hiding at home and laughing secretly. Admit it, you just love to watch the "broken her" in the bloody plot.
In the novel "The Story of Rose", the reason for the failure of Rose's second relationship is herself. She suffered from love in Zhuang Guodong, so she needed a highly secure relationship to heal, she said to her brother: "I know that I can completely control Fang Xiewen." chose to divorce because she was tired of the ordinary life, and Fang Xiewen was not at fault, his fault was only that he made Rose change from a legend to an ordinary housewife wearing fake gold earrings and a pair of jeans for $5.
In order to cater to female audiences, the TV series not only needs Mary Sue, but also Huang Yimei can't make any mistakes, and her IQ can rise and fall according to the needs of the plot. When she was pursued by Fang Xiewen, she couldn't see through that the other party was working with her, renting a house, and watching art exhibitions, but when she wanted to divorce, she could effortlessly understand that Fang Xiewen installed a locator on her mobile phone.
The screenwriter made Fang Xiewen bear all the faults, selfish and narrow-minded, showing his true colors as a phoenix man after marrying Huang Yimei step by step, not letting her go out to wear a skirt, not liking her to do nail art, resolutely opposing her having a job, and bringing a plug-in to the best mother-in-law, stepping on the audience's thunder point every minute.
At the end, the audience has forgotten, why did the heroine marry in the first place, and did they ever have love between them?
According to logic, Huang Yimei must have loved Fang Xiewen. It's just that Fang Xiewen's love for Huang Yimei is different from what she expected, which makes her feel depressed. What the screenwriter wants to express is that the two of them are all talking about chickens and ducks on different frequency bands, Huang Yimei needs to work to achieve self-satisfaction, but Fang Xiewen understands that work is to make money, and if you have money, you have value.
If Fang Xiewen hadn't become a hateful and selfish man after marriage, the plot would have been more coherent, and the audience would have been able to better understand the reasons why their marriage was destined to not last long. But in order to keep the ratings, the screenwriter must be extreme. In other words, in the current public opinion environment, creating a "scumbag" is a shortcut to gain topicality, and with a superb mother-in-law, it is an efficient means to manipulate short video algorithms to accurately deliver them to more people.
The novel "The Story of the Rose" is not a Mary Sue, it tells the story of a beautiful woman who constantly loses the most precious thing in her life, and as the years wear it down, she becomes softer and more beautiful. Even though Rose has a face that captivates the country and makes all men fall in love with her at first sight, she has not benefited much from beauty in her life. fell in love with Zhuang Guodong in the first paragraph, she lost the light and pride of a girl; In the second marriage with Fang Xiewen, she lost the most beautiful ten years of a woman, and she was not even confident in her beauty; In the third relationship with Fu Jiaming, she lost custody and became strangers to her daughter.
But contemporary people are most afraid of losing, and they can't accept that the heroine in charge of making dreams in the TV series has a major loss, even if the meaning of loss is to lead to greater consummation, it will make people unhappy. So, the screenwriter would rather blur Huang Yimei's love for Fang Xiewen, and dare not let her show a little bit of disappointment when she divorced, the marriage was proposed by her, and the divorce was also decided by her, and she had the ability to get out of the marriage. After her ex-husband went offline, Huang Yimei returned to Beijing, still a delicate beauty walking in a miniskirt in the workplace, and a virgin Mary Sue who was not stained with dust.
Dwarfing Fang Xiewen to the extreme, and Mary Sue turning Huang Yimei into Huang Yimei are all necessary. At the beginning, the adaptation of "The First Half of My Life" did not dwarf enough for the heroine Mary Sue, and it was not enough for the dwarf of her ex-husband's brother, which caused the female audience to substitute themselves into the heroine's best friend Tang Jing, and could not accept the plot of the rich and handsome He Han abandoning Tang Jing and falling in love with the heroine, and the reputation of that drama also ended.
Perhaps because of the experience, this "Story of the Rose" is the most successful adaptation of Yishu's works in the past. While scolding the screenwriter for the bloody Mary Sue, the audience contributed to the ratings, and in the end, kept the hot search topics every day.
It's really hard to adapt Yishu, unless you find something that contemporary women can learn from Yishu girls?
You must know that "The Story of Rose" was published in 1981, and roses are no longer confined to the family, from the beginning to the end, they can put aside everything to chase love, and insist on self-determination and growth in love. At that time, this was absolutely ahead of its time, representing the independent spirit of women, but now it is a backward and outdated concept. After more than 40 years, even if the TV series turns the rose, who has never worked in her life, into a strong woman in the workplace, Huang Yimei, the audience will still ask: Why does she have to grow up in a sexual relationship? Can self also be found in study, travel, work and life?
From this point of view, the adaptation of "The Story of Rose" is a success, Huang Yimei has improved compared with the previous Mary Sue heroines, because she has four complete relationship experiences, each of which she is fully devoted, but she has never been trapped by love, always vigorously pursuing a new self, and maintaining a forward-looking spirit.
In the last two episodes, Huang Yimei and Fang Xiewen divorced, and Zhuang Guodong, who returned to his hometown, went online again, and he promised Huang Yimei that as long as she opened her mouth, he was willing to give up her French career and return to Beijing. What she once asked for but didn't get is now at her fingertips, but Huang Yimei didn't hesitate at all, she no longer has nostalgia for the past. There is no such plot in the novel, but the freedom given to Huang Yimei by the screenwriter is consistent with the inner spirit of the novel.
For ordinary women, we don't have the beauty and family background of Rose, and we don't have the good results that she can easily get without too much effort. But it doesn't matter, we can still learn from her sincerity and courage in facing life. is a bit like Hao Scarlett, the heroine of "Gone with the Wind", no matter what happens, she can have the courage to accept it, and she also believes that tomorrow is a new day, and everything is possible.
Whenever the adaptation of Yishu's work comes out, everyone will compare the original work and comment that Yishu will be angry. In fact, for any writer, the work may be "tampered with" after decades, and it can also reflect the new era.
