A relaxed costume TV series, the TV series "The Legend of Que Daomen" has always been loved by the audience with its humorous plot. In episodes 15 and 16 of the latest update, the plot is once again full of irony and laughter.
The background of this episode is that Que Daomen won the championship at the tournament in Changbai Mountain, and the leader Ximen Changhai became the ally of the Northeast martial arts. However, this new alliance lord is Ximen Changhai's twin brother, but he has no martial arts. His swelling becomes more pronounced in this episode as he longs to marry an old wife.
In the previous episode, the false head of the family once found a matchmaker, but he had to pay a bride price to marry his daughter-in-law, and in the end he failed to do so. But now, he has become the alliance master of the Northeast martial arts, and has obviously become a star brother, so he raised his requirements for his fiancée, requiring "thick eyebrows, big square faces, snow-white skin, and not short size". The irony in this is thought-provoking.
Many young actors were unknown before becoming famous and experienced a lot of difficulties. But once they became stars, they seemed to start raising their mate selection standards. The behavior of the fake head in the play is in line with the phenomenon of many star brothers and sisters in reality, and once they get the honor, they seem to forget their starting point.
In the end, the two really developed feelings and were impatient to enter the cave room. This plot makes the audience feel like they are back in the "Country Love" series, because Zhao Benshan and Guan Tingna play the role of husband and wife there. And Guan Tingna's physical characteristics also happen to meet the requirements of the fake head for his fiancée.
However, if this TV series is limited to the blind date plot of Zhao Benshan and Guan Tingna, its irony will be limited. Obviously, Zhao Benshan's costume comedy has more interesting plot developments. The character of Wang Yiyi, played by Guan Tingna, reveals her true face at the end of the series, and it turns out that she is a black-hearted businessman behind the sale of fake alcohol. The reason why she wanted to marry Ximen Changhai was because he had become the alliance master of the Northeast Martial Arts and became a real brother. This reveals the purpose of many black-hearted businessmen marrying stars.
Just like Episode 16 of Zhao Benshan's "The Legend of the Magpie Daomen", the inflated head wants to marry his daughter-in-law, but is married by a black-hearted fake wine businesswoman. This comedic satire really touches on events in the entertainment industry. Only through sarcasm can a more lasting laugh be produced. In the midst of humor, this drama reflects on society and star culture in a unique way.
The success of this TV series is that it not only satisfies the audience's need for laughter, but also explores deeper social issues through irony. Just as teacher Zhao Benshan performed in the play, he skillfully presented the phenomena in society in his own unique comedy way.
The show's success lies in its daring to touch on topics that other comedies avoid. It's not just funny for fun's sake, it's based on irony and makes the audience think while laughing. This kind of innovation and daring exploration is what our comedy works desperately need now.
The 16th episode of Zhao Benshan's "The Legend of the Magpie Daomen" once again proves that comedy is not only entertainment, but also a way of thinking about society. Through punchlines and hilarious plots, the show successfully depicts a hilarious world, while also triggering the audience's reflection on society, star culture and human nature.
