The two pinnacles in the history of Chinese sitcoms are: "I Love My Home" and "The Tale of Wulin", which can be said to be unprecedented, and as for whether there are latecomers, it has to be marked with a huge question mark. I believe that the audience who have watched these two sitcoms must have a very deep impression, let's review these two sitcoms together and see what classic memories they have.
I. "I Love My Home"
This is a family sitcom that combines contemporary life models, and it is also the first real sitcom in China, it is also a television work that integrates education, entertainment, art and popularization, and has won the hearts of the people after broadcasting. At the same time, the art form that combines the form of sketches and chamber dramas has a very positive effect on the creation of future TV dramas, and perhaps many sitcoms are produced with this reference model.
The whole plot is arranged around the life events of a family of six in Beijing in the 90s, coupled with various social realities between neighbors, relatives and friends, reflecting the image of various character types in the society of that era, so that the audience seems to be able to understand the world through a TV series, which is very fascinating.
Directed by Yingda, co-starring Wen Xingyu, Song Dandan, Yang Lixin, Liang Tian, Guan Ling, Shen Chang, etc., the drama has a total of 120 episodes, only 40 episodes premiered in 1993, and renewed 80 episodes in 1994.
II. "The Tale of Wulin"
This is a costume martial arts sitcom composed of virtual stories and virtual characters, directed by Shang Jing, co-starring Yan Ni, Sha Yi, Yao Chen, Yu Entai, Jiang Chao, Wang Shasha and others.
This film, which aired in 2006, caused a wave as soon as it was broadcast, and when everyone talked about TV programs in their daily lives, it seemed that they would mention this drama, which showed its great influence. This drama has also created the starlight path of Yan Ni, Yao Chen, Sha Yi and others.
This drama attacks the "martial arts culture" known for its "violence", although it plays an ancient scene, but the content combines some undesirable phenomena in the current society, and imitates, satirizes and criticizes.
Tong Treasurer
Tong Xiangyu, played by Yan Ni, vividly expresses the character of Tong Xiangyu, who is a mother-in-law and mother-in-law, a kind heart and a very chicken thief.
White Exhibition Hall
Bai Zhantang, played by Sha Yi, is a strong martial artist, a thief, bent on reforming, but timid as a mouse, and finally had to live in a corner of the Tong treasurer, often coming to join in the fun, rubbing wine and rice.
Guo Furong
Guo Furong, played by Yao Chen, wants to be a heroine who acts heroically and righteously, but because of a arrogant and willful problem, she runs in the real rivers and lakes, but it starts from the miscellaneous service of the Tongfu Inn, and the dream of the heroine is always a dream. However, everyone believes that she will be able to become a heroine, and she thinks so, so this also gives enough faith.
For this film, Yan Ni also won the "Sina-Aokang 2006 Network Festival" Actress of the Year Award in 2007 and the "Outstanding Contributor to the 20th Anniversary of the Chinese TV Drama Industry" award in 2011.
Yao Chen also won the "Entertainment China 2006 Starlight Ceremony" Most Potential TV Actor Award and the 2011 "Outstanding Contributor to the 20th Anniversary of China's TV Drama Industry" award for this film.
It can be said that the two of them are the biggest beneficiaries of this drama. The Network language, popular songs, advertising paragraphs, variety shows, current affairs news, fashion information, etc. presented in this drama became a popular trend at that time.
Can two sitcoms with very different styles but loved by the public be able to withstand the reputation of "the two pinnacles in the history of Chinese sitcoms"? This question still has to be commented on by everyone, and you can leave a deep impression on these two dramas in the comment area!
