After the finale of "Ode to Joy 5" was broadcast, the entire network was fried by the name "He Minhong". As a veteran drama chaser, I was also shocked by the level of blood in the plot.
Originally, the opening scene was a "schizophrenic" style plot setting, and the character of He Minhong was portrayed as a typical "love brain" girl, who can do anything for her boyfriend. In order to be with her boyfriend Qi Mu, she did not hesitate to betray her good sisters, broke up with her family, and married a scumbag who used her as a nanny. Looking at He Minhong, who was crazy by mistake, everyone cried like a dog: This is the end of love driving people crazy?
As soon as the plot opens, there is bloody popcorn, which makes people feel painful. But just when everyone thought that the crew was going to make mistakes again and again, and completely interpreted He Minhong into a heinous negative teaching material, God turned around! The screenwriter was like a fire, crazy He Minhong was whitewashed, and Shengsheng made her reborn from a terrible love brain to a workplace elite.
I have to say that the screenwriter's operation was too violent, causing a lot of scolding. Many viewers called "whitewashing" too blunt and too arrogant. Even I, a die-hard fan, was deeply surprised to see He Minhong finally become a domineering female president.
However, some people applauded the screenwriter's bold setting. Some analysts pointed out that He Minhong's rebirth from a little white flower to a cornered sister is actually the epitome of many little girls in reality, and it is a kind of redemption and confirmation of contemporary non-mainstream women. Her mistakes and correctness are like shouting to these love-brained girls: "Hey, look at it, even if it is outrageously wrong, as long as you wake up in time, the road ahead is still very long!"
However, the screenwriter's handling of the role of He Minhong is too violent, which makes people feel abrupt. She was reborn from a love brain to an elite strong woman in the workplace, and the transition was too rapid. Many viewers called "whitewashing" too blunt, and even I, a hardcore drama chaser, was deeply surprised to see He Minhong finally become a domineering president, and the group ridiculed: "Did the screenwriter pick up some great sword to save the female virtuous guy?"
However, some people applaud the bold setting of the screenwriter. Some analysts pointed out that He Minhong's rebirth from a little white flower to a cornered sister is actually a portrayal of many little girls in reality, and it is a kind of redemption and recognition of contemporary non-mainstream women. Her mistakes and correctness are like shouting to these love-brained girls: "Look at it, even if it is outrageously wrong, as long as you wake up in time, the road of life is still very long!"
The screenwriter's hard work and intentions are undoubtedly worthy of recognition. After all, "Ode to Joy" has always been an urban drama that explores group portraits of women, presenting a variety of female images. He Minhong's extreme character is like a perspective mirror, reflecting the blind, naïve, and independent "love brain" girls in real life. She went from being a person who is not a ghost or a ghost to the final awakening and self-realization, and has transmitted positive energy.
However, did the screenwriter deal with this turn of events too quickly? The audience will inevitably feel uncomfortable watching the "bloody plot". Compared with
In addition to He Minhong's character direction, Fang Zhiheng's story line also makes people laugh and cry. At the beginning, Fang Zhiheng was portrayed as a cold and arrogant iceberg beauty, and she was an elite white-collar worker in the workplace. But the next plot is like the screenwriter suddenly has a soft spot for her love and hatred, and tries his best to make her suffer a heavy blow in life.
First of all, in terms of family, her parents divorced, and her patriarchal father left her sister Mianmian alone, and all the responsibility was on Fang Zhiheng. As a single sister with a promising career, she had to struggle between work and taking care of her younger sister.
Then came the setbacks in the workplace. She was originally a small achievement, but she was inexplicably slandered and framed, causing her career to suffer a heavy blow. Once upon a time, she was still the flower of Kaolin with fragrant clothes and sideburns, but now she has become a destitute family with four walls.
The screenwriter's harsh arrangement for her is simply to make Fang Zhiheng change from an old Mr. Huangge to a hard-working person in the cave. Fortunately, she finally relied on her extraordinary wisdom and tenacity to gradually regain her career and reverse the decline in her life. However, the ups and downs along the way in the middle really tossed the audience's body!
Some netizens commented that the screenwriter's good intentions are to create a story of a strong woman fighting against fate. But such a contrived plot development is really too bloody and outrageous, and it has lost the realistic style that urban dramas should have, but it is like a cheesy family ethics drama.
In addition to He Minhong and Fang Zhiheng's outrageous plot lines, the storylines of Ye Zhenzhen and Zhu Zhe are also ridiculous.
The character of Ye Zhenzhen was portrayed as a virgin image from the beginning, and she was sympathetic and considerate to everyone. In order to take care of her husband David's family, she can be said to have broken her heart. The play realistically reproduces the cynicism she suffered on the side of David's family, which is painful.
Ye Zhenzhen's attitude towards this issue has also sparked heated discussions among netizens. Some people praise her for being reasonable and broad-minded, while others call her too submissive and a typical "masochist". When she finally chose to break up with David, it was undoubtedly a justification and liberation for her life.
And Zhu Zhe, a rural girl who has worked hard since she was a child, has completed a transformation in the most traditional sense of "women are afraid of marrying the wrong man". At first, he was just a hotel minion, but through his own hard work and hard work, he eventually became an elite in the workplace. But the screenwriter's handling of her has also caused a lot of controversy.
Some netizens pointed out that the slander and resistance that Zhu Zhe has encountered along the way are really too bloody and contrived. The screenwriter seems to be deliberately trying to cause her trouble, thus highlighting her heroic image of being able to stand tall. This kind of old drama style is inevitably too blunt and not realistic enough.
However, Zhu Zhe's inspirational image of being able to make a career step by step from the bottom is still recognized by many people. After all, in real life, there are many women like her who came from poor backgrounds but are amazing, and her story is undoubtedly a tribute to these women.
