In 2010, TVB made a special anti-Japanese drama - "Yihai Haoqing".
That year, "Yihai Haoqing" achieved three harvests of ratings, word of mouth and awards.
The lead actors Li Yaoxiang, Deng Cuiwen, Chen Fara and Mak Changqing contracted almost all the important awards of the 2010 TVB Awards.
So why can this "Yihai Haoqing" stand out in many anti-Japanese dramas, and the "divine work" with a Douban score of 9.2?
According to my analysis, there are the following three points:
<h1 class = "pgc-h-arrow-right" >: "Yihai Haoqing" jumped out of the inherent mode of traditional anti-Japanese drama</h1>
Almost all of the conventional anti-Japanese dramas are centered on war, conspiracy, and mediation between our side and the enemy.
Screenwriters often like to emphasize the feelings of home and country, and the struggles and struggles of small characters in the torrent of history.
However, the plot compactness of these anti-Japanese dramas is usually not very high, giving people a feeling of "a hammer in the east and a stick in the west".
"Righteous Sea Pride" perfectly avoids this problem, and the original setting of the story is in the 1930s.
The screenwriter divides the entire story into three parts based on the three time points before the War of Resistance Against Japan, the fall and the victory of the War of Resistance Against Japan.
With the passage of time, feelings gradually sublimate, emotions continue to progress.
The audience is unconsciously substituted into the plot, laughing and crying with the actors, and being tickled by the bad guys.
The two leading actors of "Yihai Haoqing" also have great differences in identity status and class stance.
Liu Xing is the captain of the criminal investigation team living in the "pig cage", and Zheng Jiumei is a fierce big miss living in the gangster family.
The encounter between Zheng Jiumei and Liu Xing promoted the early development of the story, but before the fall of Guangzhou, the story content portrayed in "Yihai Haoqing" was by no means the so-called anti-Japanese drama.
In the early stages of the story, "Yihai Haoqing" adhered to TVB's unique "parents are short" narrative style, and the neighborhood was warm and harmonious, and the music was happy.
In the second half, you will be surprised to find that those so-called parents are short, deceitful and various complicated interpersonal relationships are all paving the way for the anti-Japanese plot. This is the ingenuity of the screenwriter, and it is also the key to "Yihai Haoqing" to stand out from many anti-Japanese dramas and become the king of TVB ratings.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > two: "Yihai Haoqing" adopts a two-line narrative method</h1>
"Yihai Haoqing" adopts a two-line narrative method, and the screenwriter unfolds two plot lines according to the different identities and living environments of Liu Xing and Zheng Jiumei.
Liu Xing, a happy little citizen in the "pig cage": he and his neighbors live together all day, playing and playing with each other.
They will quarrel over small things, but they will never really be angry with each other, which is TVB's usual lively and hilarious family fun routine.
Zheng Jiumei, the eldest miss of the "Dongtai Three Thousand Protégés": Zheng Jiumei lives in a home full of intrigue and trickery, and eryu and deceitful.
In this home, there is no affection, no trust and gratitude. Zheng Jiumei needs to stay awake and fight at all times, which makes her physically and mentally exhausted.
These two seemingly contradictory points play a very critical role in promoting the development of the subsequent plot.
<h1 class = "pgc-h-arrow-right" > three: the two protagonists span half a century of deep sadomasochism</h1>
Liu Xing and the "Nine Girls" in "Yihai Haoqing" have experienced many hardships and tests, but they have been separated for thirty years under the ruthless trickery of fate.
Their later reunion is the biggest surprise of the show, and it is also the biggest tear point.
The reason why "Yihai Haoqing" can become a divine work with a Douban score of 9.1 is because the screenwriter pays attention to portraying the most authentic side of the character, without a complicated plot and no fancy bedding.
It turns out that only "real" can impress the audience. Only "true feelings" can gain the support and recognition of the audience.
