The feeling after reading "The Story of Rose" in one go, one word "cool", the heroine upgraded all the way to abuse the scumbag, and at the age of 40, she can still have an affair with Xiao Xianrou.
As a female audience, this drama really won my heart, after all, who doesn't want to be a queen, who doesn't want to be in love with different handsome guys all the time.
But after pondering it repeatedly in the past two days, I feel that this drama is still not right, and the flattery of women is too heavy, and it is easy to bias the audience.
In the finale, none of the female characters ended badly, and all of them became goddesses and queens.
Guan Zhizhi, who was abandoned by Zhou Shihui, became a rich wife, with both children and daughters, her husband loved, and she was still the legal person of the company.
Tina, who died of her husband, fell in love with Xiao Xianrou, and Xiao Xianrou loved to die and live, she said that if she didn't get married, she would cancel the wedding and travel alone.
Su Gengsheng, who was hurt by his stepfather and concealed his marriage history, married Huang Zhenhua, the best man in the whole play, with the best father-in-law and mother-in-law, and three bumper harvests of family, career and love.
Bai Xiaohe, who was troublesome with men, directly skipped that men had a son, did a lofty job, and lived freely.
The heroine Huang Yimei is 40 years old and still lives like a little girl, doing whatever she wants, without any life pressure, and falling in love with Xiao Xianrou, who is 16 years younger.
If you don't dig deep into the essence, just looking at this appearance, it is too beautiful, but such an ending is too idealistic, and it is easy to deviate from female values.
On the surface, it is to tell women to learn to be independent and self-reliant, and not to rely on men, so that they will have the qualifications to control their lives. But can the audience really understand? Such an overly beautiful inducement can easily make women hallucinate, feeling that "as long as it goes a little unpleasantly, they will break up, and everything they meet after the breakup is better than this".
And the reality is that when I was young, I was too willful and didn't know how to manage my feelings, and when I got past the age and welfare, I couldn't even get married.
Can't get married and make a fortune on your own and live a single aristocratic life? How can it be so easy, the reality is often that you do your best, or you only get a few thousand salaries.
Stories are just stories after all, and they are also stories specially designed to please women and satisfy the fantasies of unsatisfactory women in reality, which is very detached from reality and distorts values.
On the other hand, the men in the play summarize the characteristics of all of them in one word, that is, "miserable", either they are unmarried or widowed, and none of them have a good ending.
Zhuang Guodong, who was born noble, excellent in his own right, handsome and a returnee from studying abroad, has made extraordinary achievements in his career, but in the end he will never marry for the rest of his life, and he will never forget the roses for the rest of his life.
Is this possible? It's possible to not forget your first love, but is it possible to keep your first love for the rest of your life? Is there such a man?
Zhuang Guodong's setting is selfish machismo, a man who can abandon his lover for the sake of his career, which shows that he is rational. With such a setting, he knows how to weigh the pros and cons best, and all choices will be self-interested, but in order to please the audience, in the play, he retaliated against Zhuang Guodong for abandoning roses, and directly wrote a widow.
Similarly, Fang Xiewen worked hard from the bottom and became a leader in his career, but because of his character flaws, he didn't know how to deal with feelings, and he hurt the other half in his marriage.
After the divorce, Rose immediately threw herself into Fu Jiaming's arms, and Fang Xiewen was widowed again, only loving Rose alone, ignoring all temptations.
Is this really possible? Fang Xiewen is so young, even if he is nostalgic for roses, it is impossible not to get married for the rest of his life, and the reality is often that he knows that it is impossible, so he remarries separately.
Looking at the most miserable Zhou Shihui, because he likes roses, he regrets marrying Guan Zhizhi, but he loves roses all his life, he doesn't marry or love, and he is mediocre, and the person who was abandoned by him has become a person several levels higher than him.
There are also some men who can't find faults, such as Fu Jiaming and Tina's old Gu, who have nothing wrong with their behavior, so let them have physical problems and die early.
It can be said that all the men in this drama collapsed, and it can be said that those who fell in love with roses did not end well.
A drama that shapes a woman by stepping on a man, although it looks cool, Sanguan really doesn't dare to recognize it.
In reality, those women are not willing to go so smoothly and live so freely, and men will not have a good ending because of a mistake, and even on the contrary, men live a chic life, women are more restrained, and they are more tired.
