The Art of Reversal: From Surprise to Shock
In the world of "New Life", reversal is the trump card in the hands of the screenwriter. At first, each reversal was like an elaborate chess game, leaving the audience enchanted with speculation and surprise. As the plot progresses, these reversals begin to resemble an out-of-control merry-go-round, making each turn dizzying, until finally, the audience finds themselves standing in a deserted playground with no one around but disappointment drifting in the wind.
Netizens joked: "This reversal is more tortuous than my life, but at least my life is still a little logical." "Every reversal, which should have been the highlight of the plot, gradually became a laugh in the eyes of the audience.
From all the villains to all the bad and stupid, from ruthless to emotional, the audience's mood also fluctuated with the development of the plot, until the last episode, when Jiajia and the driver's love story and justice descended on the conscience to become the climax, the audience's mood also fell to the bottom.
The Myth of Characters: From Three-Dimensional to Flat
The characters in "New Life" are supposed to be multi-dimensional, and their actions and motivations should have complex backgrounds and profound connotations. However, as the plot progresses, the characters begin to flatten, and the motivations for their actions become vague and even somewhat absurd. Fei Ke's behavior was supposed to be the result of careful consideration, but in the end, it became a simple explanation of "in order to prove her success" in the mouth of the heroine.
Netizens joked: "This character creation is simpler than my sketching, and a few strokes outline a 'complex' soul." "The motivation of the characters' behavior, which should have been the core of the plot, has gradually become a mystery in the eyes of the audience. The audience began to wonder if these characters really had their own minds, or if they were just marionettes in the hands of the screenwriters, at the mercy of the plot as it requires.

The ending of "New Life" should have been the climax of the whole play, and it was the end point where all the clues converged. However, while the audience was expecting a shocking ending, they got a bland finish. Chen Shufa's drama of wanting to die together, Fei Ke drowned in the sea in order to save the heroine, and the bad guys were all punished, all of which seemed so hasty and powerless.
Netizens ridiculed: "This ending is more perfunctory than my writing, at least I will think of a good ending when I write an essay." The controversy over the ending has become the focus of discussion among the audience. Some people believe that such an ending is a compromise that has to be made in order to pass the trial, and some people believe that it is a reflection of the screenwriter's lack of ability. In any case, the disappointment of the ending has become an indelible label of "New Life".
The mystery of the unfinished ending, the pain of the audience
The unfinished "New Life" is not only a failure of a series, but also a waste of the audience's emotions. From the surprise of the reversal to the fright, from the three-dimensional to the flat of the characters, from the expectation of the ending to the disappointment, the audience's mood fluctuates with the ups and downs of the plot, but in the end they end up with empty joy. The unfinished "New Life" may become a good story in the history of suspense dramas, but it is more likely to become an eternal pain in the hearts of the audience.
The final comment of netizens may best represent the audience's voice: ""New Life", you gave us a beginning, but forgot to give us an ending. "In this world of suspense dramas, the audience needs not only a wonderful beginning, but also a happy ending. "Freshman", you did the former, but you lost points on the latter.
