Have you ever been deeply deceived by those so-called "poor people's dramas"? In order to cater to the public's aesthetics, directors often exaggerate and beautify the lives of the poor, and the result is that the tiger is not the opposite of a dog, making the poor shake their heads.
For example, a working boy rents a mansion, for example, he can't even make enough money, for example, even if it is difficult to make money, he is glamorous, these stereotypes are simply a disgusting attitude in the entertainment industry.
Fortunately, "The Legend of Cheng Huan" gave us a slap in the face, directly hitting the poor of these "fake poor people's plays", and showing the living conditions of ordinary families in the most simple and simple way.
A 48 yuan pajamas straightforwardly set those embarrassing plots right. Will this drama become the savior of the poor strata of the masses? Will it become the fuse for the aesthetic reshaping of domestic dramas? Let's wait and see!
The life of the poor in Chenghuan is well described
As an audience from a low-income family, I have a lot of empathy for the living environment of Mak Chenghuan's family in "The Story of Cheng Huan". They live in an old neighborhood with old-fashioned iron gates that look like they've been in use for decades. There are all kinds of means of transportation everywhere in the whole community, and it can be seen that most of the people living here are low-income families.
When you enter the room of Mai Chenghuan's house, you can immediately feel the stuffy and cramped atmosphere. Although the two-bedroom room type was relatively good in the sixties and seventies of the last century, the space was too small and too small.
Daughter Mai Chenghuan's bedroom can only barely fit a single bed and a desk, and even the space to turn around is very narrow. The parents' bedroom is not large, and there is not much left with a double bed.
As for the living room, it can barely prop up a marching bed for my younger brother to sleep, and the sofa is a spotless old-fashioned style, which must have been used for most of his life.
The furniture and supplies are also old, without exception the cheapest brands and styles. There are some ordinary products on my mother's dressing table that cost thirty or forty yuan, where can I afford to use any expensive skin care products?
Even shampoo is just the old brand of goods for a few dollars a bottle. The kitchen environment is even more cramped, as long as one more person comes in, it looks crowded, and all the corners that can be placed are used to the extreme.
The life of a poor family is like this, and for those of us who are from poor families, "Cheng Huan Ji" is undoubtedly the closest restoration to reality. In contrast, those "fake poor people's dramas" are simply playing tricks and deceiving ordinary audiences.
Other plays were complained about faking the poor
If we compare some so-called "realistic" dramas released during the same period, we will find that the practice of creating a "fake poor image" in the entertainment industry has long been commonplace.
For example, Director Feng's "Far from the South", aren't there a few people in the film who are just working boys? But their living environment is a courtyard house, a single-family villa, and even the clothes they wear on their bodies are expensive big-name goods.
I really can't figure out why even the children of poor families can live in such a well-off house and wear such expensive fashion? Not to mention us ordinary people, I am afraid that even middle-class families who want to rent such a house will have to serve for half their lives.
And the drama "Thirty Only" is even more laughable, although the heroine is a small town girl, she can pick a lake-view room when renting a house, and you can overlook the Oriental Pearl of Shanghai from the window.
Do you know how much it costs for a small wage earner to rent this kind of house? Isn't she still very chic in the plot, taking the grand prize seriously, and throwing away the lottery ticket casually. How can there be such a poor man?
The image of the heroine in "Dreaming Back to the Qing Dynasty" is also very nonsense, she is obviously an ordinary Beipiao, but she can live in a duplex mansion in the center of Beijing, with floor-to-ceiling windows, and the space is large enough to accommodate four or five modern Beipiao families. With the salary of her working outside alone, I'm afraid it will cost half of her life savings to rent this kind of house, right?
What's even more exaggerated is the heroine in "My True Friend", although she was later set as a migrant worker with a monthly income of 2,000, but she does not look like a poor person in all aspects of her life.
Spacious three-bedroom and one-living room, well-decorated rooms, even instant noodles are high-end goods for dozens of yuan a piece, and cosmetics and clothing are only at the level that ordinary white-collar workers can use. No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like the quality of life that a poor person with a monthly income of 2,000 can afford.
Therefore, every time I see these so-called "poor people's dramas", I always feel very disgusted. Rich directors rely on their imagination to fabricate so-called "realistic" images of the poor, and make them up without knowing what to do, which is simply a distortion and insult to the lives of the real underclass.
Fortunately, "Cheng Huan Ji" avenged us poor people, and bluntly exposed all those nonsense deceptions, making these "fake poor people's plays" embarrassed.
This incident quickly aroused heated discussions among netizens on the Internet
The simple life of Mai Chenghuan's family in "The Story of Chenghuan" quickly sparked heated discussions on the Internet. Some netizens believe that this drama finally directly restores the living conditions of the real people at the bottom, simple, clean, and unpretentious, without any rendering and embellishment, which makes the poor people feel particularly immersed in watching it. and called on the entertainment industry to shoot more works that are close to life, instead of always taking a few shots to perfunctory.
Some netizens also believe that "The Legend of Chenghuan" is equivalent to a slap in the face, slapping many people in the entertainment industry who "make up the lives of the poor".
Those so-called "fake poor people's dramas" are obviously not short of funds, but they always do their best to destroy the power of heaven and things in props, costumes and scenes, and barely piece together a few visual "poor people's images", which are implemented to the core but are extremely empty, and the suspicion of deception is very serious.
Some netizens believe that such a contrast also reflects the vulgarity and vulgarity of the aesthetics of the entertainment industry from the side
The gap between the rich and the poor is so great, and the living conditions are also crossed, but the high-ranking directors always treat money as nothing, extravagant and wasteful, and do not think about their own influence and responsibility. Whether there is a humane director in the future is the most important thing.
summary
In general, the appearance of "The Legend of Cheng Huan" has undoubtedly given the domestic film and television industry a hard blow. It uses the most simple and closest to life to create a picture of the life of an ordinary family, and uses a 48 yuan pajamas to bluntly expose the shoddy production of many "fake poor dramas".
Rich directors are discouraged and arbitrarily make up nonsense on the theme of the lives of the poor, which not only distorts the truth, but also turns a blind eye and indifference to the living conditions of the poor group, and lacks the most basic human care.
I think that although "Cheng Huan Ji" is just a simple urban emotional drama, it will become an important fuse for the aesthetic reshaping of the film and television entertainment industry.
From now on, any "fake poor man's drama" that is fabricated and shoddy will be spurned. Only with a simple original intention, depicting the life of ordinary people with simple and clean brushstrokes, examining the inequality of this society from a plain perspective, and embodying the care for the disadvantaged groups with sincere emotions, can we win the hearts of the people and create a truly excellent work.
