The latest issue of the National Comprehensive Group has once again aroused widespread attention and discussion. Not long ago, a Chinese style variety show with the theme of traditional culture caused widespread controversy, making people express their dissatisfaction with the content of the program. This show underwent large-scale changes when adapting "Dream of Red Mansions", resulting in a significant distortion in the image of female characters.
The characters in the original work, such as Lin Daiyu, Tan Chun and Baochao, have been reshaped and become far from the essence of the original book. Lin Daiyu became a literary representative of a wife, Tan Chun was portrayed as a woman who did not want to marry, and Baochu became a scheming woman. These characters originally had more connotation and depth in the original work, but they lost their original charm in the adaptation.
Even more infuriating, the male character has also been criticized. They commented on female characters in the show and showed a greasy attitude, as if they were filming "The Red Mansion in the East Eighth District". This made the audience very dissatisfied, causing the show's rating to drop sharply from 9.0 to 6.2, and some people even reported it for removal.
In recent years, "national style" has become the new favorite of the mainland entertainment industry, but it is not easy to interpret classical culture in a new form, and it is easy to take a detour. So, what characteristics should a successful national style program have?
There is a documentary that has successfully won unanimous praise from the audience and even won the Golden Eagle Award for Best TV Documentary. This show still maintained a high score of 8.8 points on Douban after the end of the second season, and was hailed as this year's model of national style - this is the second season of "China".
Unlike those that adapt classical literary works, "China" adopts the way actors interpret ancient characters, but pays more attention to depth and connotation. The picture composition of the show is exquisite, full of artistic beauty, and every frame is like a painting. For example, the Chinese landscape, small bridges and flowing water and bamboo forests are all amazing.
However, the real charm of China lies in its content. It does not simply adapt ancient culture, but gives voice to ancient women through modern interpretations. The show is based on the stories and works of Kwan Hanqing, empathizing with the situation of ancient women, especially those singers who are in the Vasher hook. These women not only faced social oppression, but also experienced the dual oppression of imperial power and husbandly power. This show truly shows their hardships and dilemmas, giving voice to ancient women.
In addition, the show delves into Confucianism. It not only conveys the core values of Confucianism through Guan Hanqing's story, but also shows the interpretation of Confucianism in other ways. For example, it presents the internal considerations of the closed-door policy, revealing more dimensions of history.
Another success is characterization. Through the vivid interpretation of historical figures such as Kangxi and Hai Rui, the program allows the audience to better understand the inner world and beliefs of these characters. For example, Kangxi's inner struggles during the capture of Ao Bai and Hai Rui's arduous experience of adhering to the principle of incorruptibility resonate deeply.
In contrast, the failure of those national variety shows stemmed from a superficial understanding and improper innovation of classical literature. They often ignore the depth and connotation of the original work, and only pursue superficial innovation and entertainment effects. This situation reflects the decline of the overall intellectual environment, with people preferring to taste and stop entertaining rather than thinking and reading deeply.
In short, the success or failure of Chinese variety shows depends on the creator's deep thinking and respect for classical culture. Successful shows should bring classical culture to life through innovation and in-depth interpretation, rather than simply magic and surface packaging. Only in this way can we truly understand and inherit our traditional culture, instead of becoming a slave to fast food culture.
