Another nostalgic review.
I don't know if the post-00s know Gu Tianle's version of "Looking for Qin", even if I watch it now, I still feel that it is a classic cross-over drama that is difficult to surpass.
This drama is also the only one in the TV series, the protagonist "two women serve a husband", which makes me not disgusted. Because in this drama, it seems to be nonsense, but in fact, there are many thoughts, respect for women, rights and self-choice and so on.
"In Search of Qin" tells the story of Xiang Shaolong, the protagonist played by Gu Tianle, who travels from 2002 to 2000 years ago. At that time, the novel was really dare to write, and the TV series was really dare to shoot, and it also achieved logical self-consistency.
Why Xiang Shaolong? For objective reasons, Xiang Shaolong looks similar to one of the terracotta warriors, which lays the groundwork for him to be a candidate for crossing. For subjective reasons, Xiang Shaolong has a girlfriend who has been talking for 7 years, but he has never thought of marrying his girlfriend, until the girlfriend is determined not to wait to marry someone else, Xiang Shaolong suddenly woke up, but it was too late.
If the experiment through time and space can really succeed, Xiang Shaolong will have the opportunity to return to his girlfriend and keep her. Therefore, Xiang Shaolong finally embarked on this journey of "searching for Qin". There is a small Easter egg here is also very interesting, Xiang Shaolong's task of crossing is to return to the qin shi huang when he ascended the throne, take some precious historical photos for modern times, and as a result, in the process of crossing, the machine fails, so Xiang Shaolong landed in the Zhao kingdom three years before Yingzheng ascended the throne.
Completing the task is possible to trigger the instrument, so Xiang Shaolong can only go step by step to approach the ultimate purpose - to go to the Qin Kingdom, so it is called "Looking for Qin", but Xiang Shaolong's modern girlfriend is called "Qin Qing", and the wife who eventually married in ancient times is also called "Qin Qing".
Since it is a martial arts novel, there must be an element of "Shuangwen". Xiang Shaolong's identity in modern times is very cool, is a special police officer, also traveled back to ancient times, with his own historical experience, play a little clever, naturally also the beauty of the fascinated, but for different beauty people, Xiang Shaolong's way of coping is also different, which makes the role of Xiang Shaolong incomparably brilliant, more three-dimensional.
I have to say that Gu Tianle's casting is too correct. No one can refuse Gu Tianle in a suit and leather shoes, and absolutely no one can refuse Gu Tianle in a costume.
Gu Tianle was really the kind of person who god appreciated the food and ate, and he grew a handsome face of a man and a woman who looked at it. He came to play the role of Xiang Shaolong, which was not so perfect but attractive enough, and it was most appropriate.
In ancient times, Xiang Shaolong met a total of 4 women. Let's expand on that.
Gentle, a woman dressed as a man, is a chivalrous guest. Yin and Yang mistakenly met Xiang Shaolong, saved Xiang Shaolong's life many times, and gradually developed a good feeling for Xiang Shaolong, but when she learned that Xiang Shaolong already had two wives, she recognized that this person would not be the end of her happiness, so she chose to leave freely and continue to roam the rivers and lakes.
A very wonderful point is that the audience should be able to see Shanrou's chivalrous tenderness towards Xiang Shaolong, but Xiang Shaolong has not known the true feelings, or it may be pretending not to know, because it is impossible to give Shanrou the feelings she wants, so Xiang Shaolong can only pretend to be stupid.
The second is The cruel lady Wu Tingfang, who created a misunderstanding for the two people as soon as she came up, Wu Tingfang has always called Xiang Shaolong "adulterous thief", and later Xiang Shaolong gained the trust of Wu Tingfang's father and stayed in the house to help, which also created an opportunity for the two people to understand deeply. When Wu Tingfang fell in love with Xiang Shaolong, she was accused of marrying Xiang Shaolong, but Xiang Shaolong refused at this time.
Wu Tingfang, who was rejected, admitted that he had no face and his whereabouts were unknown. Wu Tingfang is not pretentious, cute and cheerful, but she is also a heroine with the most twisty fate. Former love Lian Jin designed Wu Tingfang was insulted, Wu Tingfang tried to die, this series of experiences also made her grow, and finally faced the rest of her life strongly, and also became Xiang Shaolong's wife under Xiang Shaolong's pursuit.
The gentle, kind and sensible Princess Zhao Qian of the Zhao Kingdom is Xiang Shaolong's rare acknowledged wife, and if she had not been killed by the adulterer, Xiang Shaolong would have returned to modern times with her. Their story line is also very special, the atmosphere of the two meetings is very Mary Sue is very sweet, the princess is afraid that her identity will let Xiang Shaolong avoid her, so she deliberately conceals it and becomes Xiang Shaolong's friend as a palace girl. When Xiang Shaolong learned the true identity of the princess, he helped her escape from the palace.
The last thing to say is Xiang Shaolong's official match- Qin Qing. Qin Qing looks exactly like Xiang Shaolong's modern girlfriend, she is erudite and talented, is Xiang Shaolong's confidant, and is the first to believe that Xiang Shaolong comes from the future.
When she learned that Xiang Shaolong's dream was to return to the original era, she also gave full support and understanding, and also said a very advanced concept of love!
In the end, Xiang Shaolong did not go back, but stayed behind to live with Qin Qing and Wu Tingfang. I think that after experiencing so much Xiang Shaolong, I should also find my own ideals in life, and I should also learn to cherish the people in front of me.
The success of "In Search of Qin" is based on the brilliance of the original work and the adaptability of the creative team. Even if you look at it now, although the roughness of the production is inevitable, it is a classic from the perspective of plot setting, character interpretation, and profound significance, and it is worth watching again.
