The hit drama "Heart Residence" is near the end, and the hot discussion is still continuing.
Some viewers said that this drama can be called "all evil people" in the urban ethics drama, and almost none of the characters who appear in the play are pleasing.
Some viewers also said that the characters in the play, whether feng Xiaoqin or Gu Qingyu, whether zhanxiang or Shi Yuan, are like the epitome of the people around them, one by one, so real.
This drama Pi Ge has interpreted more than once, in the ranking of the "most hated" roles, the two heroines, Gu Qingyu played by Tong Yao and Feng Xiaoqin played by Hai Qing, are happy to advance two.
There is no doubt that whether it is Feng Xiaoqin, a daughter-in-law from abroad who buys vegetables and cooks rice every day, or Gu Qingyu, a local urban gold collar in Shanghai, both have the most obvious type of shortcomings in human nature, that is, "selfishness".
To use a fashionable phrase, both sisters are "exquisite egoists."
The same as the "exquisite egoist" in the play, today, Pigo may wish to compare the two roles for everyone, see what are the clever points of Haiqing and Tong Yao's treatment of the two roles, and see what differences there are in the alternative "life wisdom" of the two roles.
Really understanding these may help you discern the "true face" of some people and some things in life.
First, Feng Xiaoqin, played by Haiqing
Every "refined egoist" aims to grab benefits for himself, but his focus is different.
As a Feng Xiaoqin who has no education and ability to come to Shanghai from other places to work hard, and the ideal is to make the whole family become Shanghainese, Haiqing uses a very eye-catching way to show his selfish characteristics.
In detail, there are three performances in the play that are very eye-catching.
The first is to be shrewd and calculating, making good use of "moral kidnapping."
Feng Xiaoqin's "calculating" personality is expressed at the beginning of the play.
In the opening vegetable shopping scene, Feng Xiaoqin circled the vegetable market, either the onions of the vendors before leaving, or the ten pieces of vegetables cut to eight pieces.
Why does Pi Ge say that Haiqing focuses on "self-interest" when expressing Feng Xiaoqin's selfishness? Because she never cherished feathers.
As long as she takes advantage of her, it is enough, as for what the outside world says about her and how outsiders look at her, she doesn't care to a large extent.
The most typical example is in the matter of borrowing money to buy a house.
Feng Xiaoqin did not hide her desire to buy a house in the slightest, and played the abacus to the extreme.
She first arranged a "speech" for her stupid husband, let him memorize it, and borrowed money from her sister's birthday.
She prepared a set of birthday greetings and gifts for her sister, but this time it was self-defeating, and she cleverly labeled a luxury brand on the scarf, which was counterproductive.
The last big trick, which is also the PlanB in her heart, is that once she can't borrow her sister's money, then borrow her husband's pension money, "Anyway, some of your money will still be given to Gu Lei in the future."
In her case, her husband Gu Lei has become a complete "marionette", so that what to do has to be done, can not say a word.
Even forced the husband to make a cruel move, if the father-in-law and sister still refuse to borrow money, the husband will have to follow him back to his hometown, "the bridge returns to the bridge road, the old and dead do not interact with each other."
In order to buy a house, even the flesh and blood affection of her husband's family can be used as a chip for sacrifice, and Feng Xiaoqin's heart cannot be described as endless.
Let's talk about the core issue in this "buying a house storm", money.
To buy a house in Shanghai, the cost is very high.
If you know the savings in Feng Xiaoqin's hands when she plans to buy a house, it is estimated that you will be frightened.
To buy a house of more than two million yuan, she only had thirty thousand yuan in her hand, and even paid the deposit.
But as soon as she opened her mouth, she had to borrow 1 million, and the huge comparison between the amount before and after also reflected Feng Xiaoqin's selfish nature of "working in the heart".
Use other people's money to buy your own house, and look at the way her husband Gu Lei earns money, this money will most likely not be repaid.
This is also the source of her contradiction with Gu Qingyu.
It is not so much a borrowing as it is a matter of wanting, and to put it more seriously, it is almost a "moral kidnapping" robbery.
The second point, which never hides its aims, is a downright "pragmatic" person.
Compared with Gu Qingyu, Feng Xiaoqin does not care about her own image, nor is she good at packaging herself, she is a complete "pragmatist".
After even coaxing her husband to get her husband's pension, because there was no money for decoration, she still did not let go of her great sister Gu Qingyu, this stalking temperament, not to say that she is "selfish" can not be said.
Feng Xiaoqin has made a lot of contributions to the Gu family, eight years, taking care of the Gu family's large family, some old and young, and her contribution is indeed a lot.
But doing more, Feng Xiaoqin said more, and she never hid her purpose, saying everything to achieve it.
When borrowing money from his eldest sister, Gu Qingyu pretended that he wanted to buy a house.
But Feng Xiaoqin knows Shanghai's housing purchase policy very well, and directly blocks Gu Qingyu's back road, which means that you are not qualified to buy a house, or lend it to me.
After that, he did not forget to use the "national policy" to warn the eldest sister and directly let Gu Qingyu suffer.
Because he wanted to persuade Feng Xiaoqin not to buy a house, the old man invited the seven aunts and eight aunts to persuade him, but he did not expect Feng Xiaoqin to directly fire at his relatives.
Feng Xiaoqin is like this, she never hides her purpose, and she never hides the means she wants to use in order to achieve her goals.
Whether it is a big fuss or a shrew scolding the street, as long as the purpose is achieved and the cheap is taken, she can always bow her head and admit her mistakes, because if she does not admit mistakes, her interests will suffer losses.
Third, on the surface, there will be small losses, but never big losses.
It is impossible for a woman like Feng Xiaoqin to suffer losses, and she may suffer some small losses on the surface, but she will never suffer a big loss.
After the death of her husband Gu Lei, Feng Xiaoqin did two things that could be called "tragic".
The first is to accuse the eldest sister Gu Qingyu of "taking away" Gu Lei's good fortune in the womb and also taking away his Yangshou.
In order to shirk her responsibility and alleviate the guilt of her husband's accidental death due to an argument with herself, she did not hesitate to move out of this set of superstitious "metaphysics" to accuse Gu Qingyu, which was somewhat useless.
These words also caused a lot of pressure on Gu Qingyu.
The second thing is to take the old neighbor of the Gu family for many years to court.
Feng Xiaoqin's purpose in doing so is also very clear, the Gu family has accused her of killing Gu Lei, she needs the official, she needs authority to justify her name: the main responsibility for Gu Lei's death is not her.
In the end, the court ruled that Feng Xiaoqin won the case, and the neighbor compensated a dollar and apologized. But the kind neighbor brought a stack of money, and Feng Xiaoqin, who had always been addicted to money, confiscated it.
Because she knew very well that if she got too stiff, she would be kicked out.
The Internet hot word is well said, "a meal of saturation is suddenly full", Feng Xiaoqin can still carry it clearly.
In the whole play, Feng Xiaoqin almost lives in the "use" of others, and she can use all the resources around her to serve herself.
Initially looking for a Gu Lei who wanted to look good, and wanted to be talented and talentless (still a cripple in the original work), it was for his Shanghai hukou.
Forcing his son to study hard and forcing her husband to take the accounting certificate is also for his own happy life in the future.
As for buying a house, it is to realize her realistic ideal of "taking the whole family over and making the whole family a Shanghainese".
Why does she only force others, not herself? Because she knows very well what her abilities are, and she knows how difficult it is to gain a foothold in Shanghai on her own.
Of course, in the process of implementing the means, she will not care about the opinions of others, and the ultimate goal can be achieved.
In fact, when Feng Xiaoqin decided to turn her illegitimate son Feng Danian into her "younger brother" and cheated Gu Lei into marriage, her identity as a "delicate egoist" had already been determined.
However, in the two characteristics of "refinement" and "self-interest", Feng Xiaoqin is more inclined to the latter. This is related to her low education and the influence of her original family.
Second, Gu Qingyu, played by Tong Yao
Gu Qingyu meets the personal characteristics of all "exquisite self-interested".
She has a high IQ, graduated from a prestigious university, has a good look and a body, a successful career, money and leisure, and there is no shortage of suitors.
But often such people, when using means to achieve their own goals, "stealth" is particularly strong.
Because many people can only see the labels and surfaces of such people as "strong women", "elites", and "upper class people", but they can't see the intentions behind them.
Gu Qingyu's exquisite self-interest is also reflected in three aspects.
First, the "persecution paranoia" style of shrewdness, good at presupposing others on their own opposites.
This characteristic of Gu Qingyu is clearly and clearly manifested in her relationship with her sister-in-law Feng Xiaoqin.
Gu Qingyu is extremely sensitive, she is born with the elite's desire to seek profit and avoid harm, likes to stand on the moral high ground and God's perspective, always have a defensive and speculative heart for others, and preconceived others on their own opposites.
The biggest problem with this type of person is to enjoy the pleasure of control, Gu Qingyu is excessively mixed in his brother's married life, the most favorite thing to do is to "analyze" the motivation of his sister-in-law Feng Xiaoqin.
Everyone pays attention to Gu Qingyu's words about Feng Xiaoqin, people live well, and she wants to use the assumption of "just in case" to provoke.
The matter of buying a house has progressed, and she has sacrificed the "time" that she has said in her words, and the relationship between her brother's husband and wife has been separated.
Thinking that Feng Xixi lived in the Gu family, she made a hypothetical "future" and sealed the coffin board for the suspicion of her brother and sister-in-law.
In fact, Gu Qingyu's kind of high-minded and exquisite self-interest is even more terrible, and the things she said did not happen, they were assumed by herself. Using the assumption of "if" to add a bad presupposition to persuade others seems reasonable, but it is extremely irresponsible, and the consequences are often more serious.
For example, the accident of Gu Lei's death was caused by Feng Xiaoqin hearing Gu Qingyu's self-righteous "analysis" and then starting a dispute.
Her selfishness also indirectly led to the death of her brother.
Her brother's bones were not cold, and she again "assumed" that her sister-in-law sued the neighbors for compensation.
He is also using "hypothetical" to shake the father against the sister-in-law.
As the saying goes, "It is difficult for a Qing official to break off family affairs", as a great sister, Gu Qingyu, why do you feel that you can handle your brother well, adjust your brother-in-law well, and straighten out their marriage relationship?
Second, he has two personalities, "hidden performance" and "hypocrite", and has a strong desire for control.
In addition to interfering in the life of her brother and wife, Gu Qingyu also interfered too much in the affairs of the family, of course, she would not reveal her true intention to control the family, but in the name of "for the good of the family".
The big and small things in the family, Feng Xiaoqin, Gu Shihong and Gu Lei, never really had an idea, even if Gu Qingyu was at work and was sick, she would be shaken home by her father's phone.
After entering the house, he blatantly regarded Feng Xiaoqin as an outsider, and the three of them gathered for a small meeting.
They are all family, dragging the family with their mouths to make decisions by the eldest sister-in-law, who can stand this?
Just as Feng Xiaoqin described Gu Qingyu, whether ethically, emotionally or morally, although Gu Qingyu likes to point out things at home, he never comes up with any substantive support that really changes the living conditions of the family.
For example, money, the sister-in-law asked her to borrow money, although she has tens of millions of assets, but a million is not out.
This is understandable, she is not obliged to use her assets to satisfy her sister-in-law's wishes, but she has no reason to hide her malicious speculation about her sister-in-law's intentions.
Another example is supporting the elderly. Logically, men and women are equal, and it is the responsibility to support the children of the elderly.
She has tens of millions of dollars in a single list, lives alone in a large house, has multiple properties, and is ready to buy a more luxurious, nanny who cooks and does housework, her father and grandmother and brother, but six people are crowded in a small house.
Although she is an elite with high education and high cognition, in her bones, Gu Qingyu is still hypocritical, because this shows that she tacitly acquiesced to the traditional rule that "parents should support boys".
As for how her father, brother and grandmother are doing, whether there will be a problem with handing over to an "evil sister-in-law", she does not care.
She only enjoys the pleasure of control, if she is really good for her family, afraid that her sister-in-law has evil intentions, she is fully capable of taking her relatives to her side to live, rather than just moving her mouth and making a big fuss about the relationship between husband and wife.
In the whole play, the biggest contribution of the elite Gu Qingyu to the Gu family is to find an accounting job for his brother who can't eat enough to die, nothing more.
Many people may retort: Gu Qingyu earns so much money on her own ability, the money is her own, why should she help her family?
Since there is no reason to help, why should we interfere too much in family affairs?
Gu Qingyu's human traits are manifested in all aspects of her actions and speech, such as when talking about Feng Xiaoqin, on the surface it is praise, but in essence, it is a number of drops, saying a bunch, and the last sentence is the true word.
This kind of person with hidden performance is very popular in real life, and is often praised as "high emotional intelligence", but it is also this kind of person who often likes to stab a knife in the back.
Because they look like they're praising you, they're actually digging a pit for you and waiting for you to jump in.
Third, in terms of feelings and courtship, there is a "four noes" strategy.
Gu Qingyu's self-interested delicacy is also reflected in the matter of feelings and courtship.
In order to miss her 14-year-old first love, she did not hesitate to let every boyfriend wear a white shirt and black-rimmed glasses, and the other party could not do it and directly kicked it away.
For Zhan Xiang and Shi Yuan, Gu Qingyu actually carried it very clearly.
She knew Zhan Xiang's intentions for herself, although the words revealed the meaning of "we are not suitable", but she never really rejected Zhan Xiang, and she accepted all the good and all the care of the other party with peace of mind.
She can calmly eat with Zhan Xiang, climb the mountain, walk the bends, pedicure, and do anything together as a couple, even if she is married.
However, after Shi Yuan appeared, she hurt Zhan Xiang's heart fiercely, took the initiative to pursue Shi Yuan and engaged him in front of Zhan Xiang.
For Zhan Xiang, Gu Qingyu maintained the common practice of all "scumbags and scumbags", that is, not to admit, not to deny, not to refuse, not to be responsible.
However, for Shi Yuan, you can launch a twelve-point offensive and lightning to obtain the certificate.
The reason why Gu Qingyu has been walking between Zhan Xiang and Shi Yuan, and neither of them gives up, is because she clearly knows the significance of these two people to her emotional world.
Zhan Xiang is her chai rice oil salt, is real life.
This person has an economic foundation, has abundant material conditions, has extensive contacts and social resources, eats, drinks, drinks, and listens to concerts together, he is very good at it; pick-up, zhangluo happy events and funerals, moving, taking care of people, he is also very "practical".
Shi Yuan is her white moonlight, is poetry and far away.
For her, Shi Yuan is an ideal state of emotion, her emotional world and spiritual comfort, and her compensation for her shortcomings many years ago.
It turns out that Gu Qingyu and Shi Yuan are only together to realize the unattainable dream of a young girl when he was a teenager.
Falling on the real place of chai rice oil and salt, the so-called unforgettable love of 14 years old is still fragile to be vulnerable.
Gu Qingyu hated Zhan Xiang's worldliness, but he had never left this worldliness. She also cares about Shi Yuan's self-esteem, but she has never really helped him build self-confidence.
No matter how deeply you hurt others, as long as you meet your own emotional needs, this is Gu Qingyu's attitude towards emotions.
In fact, this kind of attitude is in line with Gu Qingyu's "exquisite self-interested", because this runs through her personality, penetrates into her values, and is the way she is used to doing things.
Comparing the two, we will find that although Feng Xiaoqin," who is also an exquisite egoist, Haiqing, is explicit, he is real and direct, and is not hidden, and is on the table, even if he does not like it, he is good to beware.
However, Tong Yao's Gu Qingyu has a high emotional intelligence, but his "self-interest" is hidden very deeply, quite hidden. Whether it is for her family or her feelings, she will always package herself as a perfect "white lotus", but in fact, it is self-centered, with the purpose of maximizing her own interests, and everyone is a tool for her to meet her own needs, and her relatives and friends are no exception.
If you meet these two kinds of people in your life, which one would you prefer to make friends with?
