The second wife Zhuo Yun in "The Big Red Lantern Hangs High" is the last victor in the film, she is a bodhisattva with a scorpion heart, the means are vicious, it is really terrible, such a vicious person, but it is precisely the person who defeated others and lived to the end, which makes us who have a simple "concept of justice" feel sad.
When I was planning to write about the second wife, I opened Su Tong's original work to see what the ending of the second wife in the original work was, even if it was punished by Boss Chen or wary of it, I could also slightly soothe the inner loss.
After reading the original work, I am sorry that I did not find what I wanted to see in the original work, but I saw more regrettable things, and after lamenting, I seemed to feel that this was the truth of Chen Fu, more precisely, the truth of human nature.
Zhuo Yunqiren, in the Chen Mansion where the existence of women only exists as a tool, from various conditions, her tool performance does not seem to be optimal, her posture has aged, and there is no special talent, and she has not given birth to a boy for Boss Chen, among the four wives, her comprehensive performance ranking is basically at the end, so she, with what did she beat others?
We combed through Zhuo Yun's style of acting and found that she had achieved the most fundamental point, which was enough to support her to live in Chen Mansion for ten thousand years.
This is that she deeply realizes her status as a tool person, and she is determined to exert her greatest value to her master as much as she can, to serve Boss Chen as much as possible, and to let her do whatever she wants, even if she is a dog. At this point, the third wife Mei Shan and the fourth wife Song Lian were inferior to her.
We see that in the film, Zhuo Yun is the most able to bow down and serve Boss Chen among these wives.
After all, in this Chen Mansion, Boss Chen is the one who decides the fate of everyone. Even a Yahuan, after getting Boss Chen's affection, could feel that she had something to rely on and began to be a little unscrupulous in front of her master.
After serving Boss Chen, her life is worry-free can be guaranteed, the next things, such as she mutilated Mei Shan, secretly cursed Song Lian, these are not things, perhaps in Boss Chen that is still a plus, after all, Boss Chen wants to clean up Mei Shan, his mouth "dog mother raised" Mei Shan He has long wanted to clean up, just a name, for Song Lian, he also scolded Song Lian "when the bitch also stands in the archway", "hurt you are not as good as a dog", Song Lian in his that is also a pig dog is not as good as something, Zhuo Yun wanted to mutilate these two people of the same level as her, and it could be said that there was no obstacle at all from Boss Chen, and it was more likely that he was also deeply pleased by Boss Chen and was intentionally or unintentionally encouraged by Boss Chen.
In the movie, although Boss Chen teaches several wives to get along harmoniously, the rules he runs expose that he wants the wives to fight, and there is a description in the original book that also exposes his mind, after Mei Shan was caught and raped by Zhuo Yun, the anger and humiliation of normal men when his wife cheated on him Chen Zuoqian did not have any traces, the original book wrote: "Chen Zuoqian's face is much calmer than expected, And Song Lian even feels that there is a real ease in his performance."
Chen Zuoqian had been waiting for this moment for a long time, and when he finally waited, he naturally liked it and was extremely relaxed.
No matter how much one's language is hidden, there will be other things that leak out of your heart. No matter how much Boss Chen's language is full of "harmony", his true heart will leak out from his expression and actions, he wants his wives to fight and borrow the knife of one of them to kill the other person, when things develop in the direction he expected, he naturally feels really relaxed.
Therefore, what Zhuo Yun did, in the eyes of our ordinary people, she is indeed vicious, but in the eyes of Boss Chen, it is a symbol of her Zhuo Yun's best efforts to serve his Boss Chen's will, she accurately captured his mind, helped him get rid of the people he wanted to get rid of, and really won the favor of His Boss Chen.
You may think that Zhuo Yun wants to mutilate other wives is simply her Zhuo Yun bad, Zhuo Yun wants to exclude these wives so that they can enjoy their own exclusive favor, and the cruelty to Mei Shan is only because Zhuo Yun wants to mutilate Mei Shan, can't say that she is speculating about Boss Chen's mind to do it for Boss Chen, right?
Zhuo Yun really hates Mei Shan, but she has not understood Boss Chen's heart in addition to Mei Shan, she can't do such a big fanfare thing, the so-called beating of dogs still depends on the master, in the Chen Mansion where Boss Chen says that there is no difference, we assume that Boss Chen has extreme protection for Mei Shan, Zhuo Yun dares to move Mei Shan, moving Mei Shan is to move him Boss Chen, you move a try, you can't eat and walk, if Boss Chen is such an attitude, Zhuo Yun, who can do kneeling and licking Boss Chen, she will also move Mei Shan? Even if Mei Shan cheats, she Zhuo Yun will also trigger boss Chen's taboo when the hand Mei Shan will trigger, I Chen Boss's business is still your turn Zhuo Yun intervenes, how to deal with Mei Shan is my business, to kill or kill is my business, it is not your turn to stir up dissension here, how far you give Lao Tzu to roll! If Boss Chen had such an attitude, on Zhuo Yun's shrewdness, she who was bent on currying favor with Boss Chen would not dare to touch Mei Shan so brazenly.
And we look at the group of people living around us, what kind of situation a group presents, is often the subconscious appearance of the group leader, just like what kind of pattern a person's room presents, it is often the manifestation of the person's subconscious.
Therefore, the most important thing is that Boss Chen's heart except Mei Shan is there, Zhuo Yun speculated and understood his mind to shoot for him, sold a bargain to the master, and by the way, also relieved the evil in his heart.
It is such a cruel truth, in the Chen Mansion where only Boss Chen is a person, everyone else is a tool, so that Boss Chen's rights and interests are maximized, it is the responsibility of the tool people, and it is also the basis and value of their existence, Zhuo Yun understands and practices, so she can survive safely in Chen Mansion, and from time to time get the favor of Boss Chen to ensure that she lives a worry-free life.
In contrast, the third wife Mei Shan and the fourth wife Song Lian were simply worse than her, they did not correct their positions, in a place like Chen Mansion, they regarded themselves too seriously as a person, one was flamboyant, one was willful. Especially the third wife, actually scolded Boss Chen on Boss Chen's turf, and did not take Boss Chen's rules seriously at all, you teased Boss Chen, let you look tempting again, and wait for Boss Chen to seize the opportunity to clean up and clean up after you; and the fourth wife, looking young and student, Boss Chen may be good at this mouth, but you actually put up a clear height in front of Boss Chen, I Boss Chen let you do what you hate, you, the bitch I bought by Boss Chen, actually set up a archway in front of my Boss Chen, I let you stand, I'll make you feel good in Chen Mansion.
After comparing the other two wives with Zhuo Yun, it was found that their survival ability was simply superior to Zhuo Yun, and it was no wonder that the person who laughed at the end was her Zhuo Yun.
Of course, the other two wives are not blind to the situation, in their dialogue, we see that they are fully aware of their own inhuman situation, helpless, they still have a trace of expectation as human beings, they still have a trace of their own value as human beings, and they still have a trace of stubbornness to bite and not relax, and this also creates their sadness.
Who let them be in that Chen Mansion?
And Zhuo Yun, doing her best to serve the master with all the tools she can do, let her survive, but her lost humanity, her life, is she happy?
Maybe she didn't know it, the life of the tool man, the walking dead, struggling to defend a land of surviving bullets, just relieved, the spring wind blew into a fifth wife, and immediately posed a threat to her status, and had to be busy, who cares about the spirit?
The life of a tool man, what happiness to talk about.
