Miss No. 1 Cinema (original by topcinema, reprinting is strictly prohibited)

In March, the Taiwanese movie "Removing the Three Evils Around the World" became a hit in mainland cinemas, allowing many people to once again see the persistence, sharpness, and humanistic background of Taiwanese films.

And this April, as soon as another Taiwanese TV series debuted, it quickly conquered countless audiences, from 8.5 points at the beginning of the broadcast, and after a few episodes, it soared directly to 9 points.

This is the first Chinese-language drama series with a score of 9 points this year.

"We Are Not Good Enough".

There are only 8 episodes, and it's not muddy at all.

This is a two-major heroine drama, the comeback work of 41-year-old Ariel Lin, plus Xu Weining, who is an opponent in chess, tells the story of two women born on the same month and day, from young "fighting" to middle age, who loses and who wins?

From the main character to the story, it's very exciting.

When a large number of domestic entertainment dramas are still repeatedly pulled in genre dramas such as mother-in-law and mother-in-law, ancient puppets, and spy wars, Taiwanese dramas are no longer on the same track at all.

This time, it was slapped in the face again.

A few years ago, "The Distance Between Us and Evil" not only attracted a large number of audiences, but also triggered the audience's discussion and thinking about social issues.

This "We Are Not Good Enough" cuts into the social reality and the joys and sorrows and confusions of life at different stages from a female perspective, and once again presents the observation and reflection on life and human nature.

Let's talk about the main creative lineup first, which is attractive enough:

filming women's dramas, women understand women best, the director and screenwriter of this drama, Xu Yuting, since she is a powerful female screenwriter, she is also a good female director.

Back then, Ariel Lin and Chen Bolin's hit drama "I May Not Love You" was the script she wrote, and she was the director and screenwriter of the movie "Who Fell in Love with Him First" that reborn Qiu Ze.

And Ariel Lin, the "Queen of Taiwan Puppet Drama Ratings", who has retired for many years, has made a comeback again, and this comeback work is to choose to cooperate with Xu Yuting, so the show is called one of the most anticipated Taiwanese dramas this year, and there are high hopes.

Xu Weining, who has already relied on her acting skills to get rid of the title of a vase from a model, is an actress who has made rapid progress over the years, and this time she and Ariel Lin are playing again, two queens.

It is worth mentioning that Xu Weining and Ariel Lin starred in "Mischievous Kiss" together, and both of them have faded away from their youthfulness when they work together again.

The male protagonist is a bit interesting, and he Junxiang, who also took the idol route back then, changed from a young boy back then, and Ariel Lin to a middle-aged couple in the play, with a full sense of topic.

There are also heavyweight actresses like Liu Ruoying and Xie Yingxuan in supporting roles.

Sure enough, powerful people joined forces and won many top-list championships on the island of Taiwan as soon as the broadcast started, but what really moved the audience was the story that pierced people's hearts.

"We Are Not Kind Enough" seems to have installed a monitor in everyone's life, or put a mirror in front of our eyes.

The protagonists in the story are two women: Jian Qingfen (played by Ariel Lin) and Zhang Yijing/Rebecca (played by Xu Weining).

The two were born on the same day and month, they were in the same company when they were young, and they happened to wear the same clothes and shirts, and fell in love with the same man He Ruizhi (He Junxiang).

In the end, the latecomer junior took the position, and the two had different choices, and time also slowly pushed them to middle age and came to the edge of 40 years old.

One fights to live the life they want, and the other resists in order to live the life they want.

Years later, did they live the life they wanted, won the life they wanted?

It's not simple.

On the surface, Jian Qingfen, who snatched someone else's boyfriend and got married and had children, is the winner.

Back then, He Ruizhi's girlfriend was Zhang Yijing, but Jian Qingfen relied on her own means and charm to finally become He's wife, gave birth to a child, and had a warm home.

But the middle-aged marriage is gradually dull, and there is no interest and passion between husband and wife, even if they want to be noisy, they are also overwhelmed by reason.

When she is middle-aged, her husband and children, and her well-organized married life, Jian Qingfen begins to live a step-by-step life, and her life is so calm that she doesn't seem to have a ripple.

So, Jian Qingfen thought of his rival Zhang Yijing, how is this "defeated general" doing now?

However, when she searched for the other party's current situation on the Internet, she found that 39-year-old Zhang Yijing lived a completely different life from herself.

Although they are all middle-aged, Jian Qingfen has a husband and children, Zhang Yijing is unmarried and childless, has a tattoo at ease, and has a little boyfriend who is 10 years younger than her, and still lives a young woman-like, energetic and fresh life.

Jian Qingfen, who originally thought she had won, shattered her pride in an instant, and the woman's jealousy burned again.

However, Zhang Yijing, who is 39 years old and unmarried and childless, is not as happy and detached as Jian Qingfen sees on the Internet.

Zhang Yijing is freelance, but she is busier and has more things to worry about than people with regular jobs.

Coupled with being unmarried and childless, a friend played by Liu Ruoying warned her that if she wants to live well after the age of 50 in this state, she must save enough Taiwan $20 million (about 4.45 million yuan) first.

Jian Qingfen thought that he was Zhang Yijing's 10-year-old boyfriend, and he was not Zhang Yijing's boyfriend at all, so he helped the boy chase other women, and the two posed for photos.

Those characters who were "jealous" by Jian Qingfen turned out to be false packaging.

A single woman who is almost 40 years old, even if she is beautiful or independent, has to bow her head in front of the real marriage and love market, because she is disgusted as "old".

While dealing with a messy work, Zhang Yijing must bear the loneliness and loneliness alone and resist the worldly eyes of the outside world.

Zhang Yijing, who felt that she had failed, also searched for Jian Qingfen's current situation on the Internet, wanting to see if the life she was living was really satisfactory.

Zhang Yijing seems to regret it a little, and she is unwilling to give up her boyfriend to Jian Qingfen.

The middle-aged woman's re-encounter is still competing, competing: while beautifying her unsatisfactory life, she is peeping into each other's life.

This is also the question that the director and screenwriter slowly threw to the audience:

After going through various life choices, are we living the life we want?

Behind happiness and freedom, is it the same as success or happiness?

In this life, we are constantly comparing, who are we comparing ourselves with, and what are we comparing?

On the surface, this is a love triangle from youth to middle age, but in fact, the two women born on the same day and month are actually like a woman's life after two different choices:

Jian Qingfen, who is husband and godson, and Zhang Yijing, who is single and hardworking.

A middle-aged housewife who is trapped in the ordinary family trivialities and has changed from a delicate white-collar worker to a middle-aged housewife pulling a trailer to buy groceries.

A person who is fighting against loneliness, loneliness and coldness, free and easy, is cold and warm, busy making money, and still struggling to find love.

In particular, I would like to praise the two heroines, the growth and maturity of the two are presented in the play.

Ariel Lin and Xu Weining, who are also middle-aged, did not continue to pretend to be tender at all, and they both unloaded the past of idol dramas in the play, and played two middle-aged women who competed with each other.

Back to the title of the play "We Are Not Kind Enough", by telling the story of the two heroines, the core is still to look directly at human nature and analyze the plight of women.

It's not that it's not kind, it's not really vicious, it's not kind enough, why?

Because I've been competing, I've been trying to live better than each other, as if this way I don't seem to be so a failure.

In just 8 episodes, "We Are Not Kind Enough" tells a story that pierces people's hearts and analyzes human nature in the seemingly daily love between men and women.

Such a down-to-earth observation and thinking of reality and human nature, and the performance of the beautiful protagonist who puts down the burden of idols, when can I see it in the dramas of internal entertainment?

Unfortunate Taiku.
