I had the privilege of going to the "Celadon" conference before, and after many years, I finally had time to take out the tuition, and found that although the drama weakened the collusion between officials and businessmen, the trading of power and money, including extramarital love, it also stayed in the spiritual derailment, but through the wonderful performances of Wang Zhiwen, Zhang Guoguo, Du Jiang and others, it presented the dangerous relationship between businessmen in the face of wealth and desire!
Adapted from the novel of the same name by Pumice Pumice, through the real estate auction project handled by Zhang Zhongping, it tells his battle of wits and courage with all kinds of people, and tells the most important principle of human affection for Chinese businessmen to behave in the world. The lines of the whole drama are sharp and spicy, and the plot is smooth and natural, just like the miniature ukiyo-e of various merchants in China at present.
Zhang Zhongping is a cunning and old-fashioned businessman, but full of personality and charm. He understands human feelings, is good at sociability, and never easily violates the rules, so he can move freely in front of lovers, businessmen, officials, relatives and friends, Wang Zhiwen's performance is vivid and delicate, and the large lines are read with super infectious power and show profound skills.
As an old fritter in the auction industry, Zhang Zhongping not only knows how to buy fake celadon to bribe real estate developer Yan Ruoshui, but also knows the unspoken rules of the ditches and bumps. At first, the nephew wanted to skip the developer to give money to the big official, and he stopped to teach: "For state cadres, we must keep a distance, otherwise this relationship will become a dangerous relationship." It's thunder, ready to blow up! ”
He can prevent Zeng Zhen from going upstairs to watch Zuo Da commit suicide, he can put on a tearful show in front of the media camera, and afterwards he will use her again to find "panda blood" to save the child of Jiang Xiaolu, a confidant with a red face. Treating his wife, lover, and partner, Zhang Zhongping is also good at lying, and knows how to reasonably maneuver everything, and is shrewd to the limit.
On the other hand, Du Jiang plays a young businessman represented by Xu Yi, but he is impatient to eat hot tofu, and the moral bottom line gives way to interests and loses himself. At the beginning, he despised the developer Zuo Da, who was in a desperate situation, and won half a million yuan in a big bet with the other party, and he tried to hide a huge amount of money afterwards. Behind him he set himself up, that is, he wanted to empty the gloves of the white wolf.
Zhang Zhongping can move and wander between his lover and his wife, but he can't bear to hurt any of them, and he doesn't even dare to cheat physically; Xu Yi gets financial support from his lover Zhou Xinran, but instead bribes for the sake of power, he goes to sleep with Yan Ruoshui's aunt Qi Yu, and morality completely gives way to interests, which eventually leads to the East Window Incident.
However, an antique market shopping is very black and humorous, from Qi Yu's warning not to touch it with his hands, to Yan Ruoshui's fifty thousand fakes, with two pieces of 3200 yuan to get it, go back to sell five million, shocking. Zhang Guoli is very introverted and old, and Ye Yiyun is very charming and frivolous, but both sides are very hypocritical and capable, which is admirable.
In fact, to discuss the way of business, Xu Yi is a typical unskilled and clever, just take the auction of victory building, he matched the female employee Zhang Xiaojie and the contractor Gong Dapeng, but wanted to make money that should not be earned. He also came up with a bad idea to let Gong Dapeng send people to make trouble, which not only killed people, but also seriously overdrawn his credibility and became infamous!
Xu Yi does not understand the rules, lacks consideration, is not rational and calm enough, and is doomed to fiasco! If there is no Zhang Zhongping to spend money to get the people who make trouble in the Victory Building and wipe his ass for him, Xu Yi would have lost money and could not earn a drink, just like he messed up the art auction, and he was all Yan Ruoshui puddle, and he also sent money to people.
And Zhang Zhongping and Yan Ruoshui had many confrontational conversations, from playing chess to talking about game to commercial interests, there was a kind of hypocrisy. There was a scene where Zhang Zhongping caused trouble to his nephew and killed people, he sweated and trembled in the celadon club, and he was in danger to deal with Zhang Guoguo's persecution, and his performance was textbook-level.
Although there are official-business relations and extramarital love affairs, but because of the mainland censorship system has become harmonious, Lu Bing, Jungle, Zhou Yunnian and other officials refuse to accept money, it seems that they are never greedy, so the collusion between officials and businessmen is too clean. Zeng Zhen and Zhang Zhongping wanted to open the room and go to bed several times, either for their own reason to prevent it, or they were disturbed by incoming calls, slightly deliberate.
Han Yuqin and Li Fei'er, the former is intellectually beautiful and is in the small three whirlpools, the latter is simple and lovely, and is miserable by her husband, all of which have a silly white and sweet taste. Jiang Xiaolu fell in love with Zhang Zhongping and was rejected, to marry the vice mayor, Liu Min played a simple woman to a remarkable point, including Li Hongtao, Wang Haiyan and other powerful actors are very accurate!
Because his wife was seriously ill, Zhang Zhongping gave up his lover and career, violated his agreement with Yan Ruoshui, and began to show his goodness, morality and warmth. He angrily smashed the celadon and roared, and also threatened Yan Ruoshui with the recording, he insulted the intelligence of the other party, and trampled on the dignity of the enemy, which is a classic climactic scene.
Zuo Da said before falling downstairs: "See my past from your body" "Your future is more terrifying than me", but He did not expect that Xu Yi, who was discredited, finally ran to the Victory Building to commit suicide, and he was dissuaded by his uncle's remarks about the balance of truth, goodness, beauty and interests. The adulterous merchant Yan Ruoshui was arrested, and his uncle and nephew had to turn themselves in, which was in line with the basic principles of national drama.
The whole drama is telling a "human" truth, the original work written by Pumice Shi was once hailed as the "encyclopedia of Chinese-style human relations", in the play, human feelings affect interests, cooperation, contradictions, entanglements, I am afraid not Zhang Zhongping, Hu Haiyang, such a high emotional intelligence, self-disciplined businessman, it is difficult for ordinary people to retreat in the complex and dangerous business sea.
The whole drama has used the mouths of female adulterers, prosecutors and others to frequently say that wolves have their tails between their legs, but they walk all over the world to eat meat; dogs their tails, but they walk all over the world to eat. Classic lines such as "Freedom is what you don't want to do, not do what you want to do", revealing the exquisite philosophy of human life, which is praiseworthy!
This "Celadon Porcelain", which is full of introspective consciousness and compassion, although it has gathered many powerful celebrities, has not been as well received as expected on Hunan Satellite TV, which makes people lament that "the entertainment culture of excessive fast food" also needs to be vigilant! After all, "celadon" looks bright and beautiful, if you don't take it lightly, it will shatter when you touch it!
Classic lines from "Celadon Porcelain":
It is true that doing business depends on friends and relationships, but for state cadres, we must keep a distance, otherwise this relationship will become a dangerous relationship. It's thunder, ready to blow up!
At any time, human life is more important than money!
Freedom is what you don't want to do, not what you want to do!
In business, small wealth depends on diligence, middle wealth depends on morality, and big wealth depends on fate.
A businessman is a businessman, and instead of talking to him about morality and character, it is better to talk to him about interests and rules.
Wolves have their tails between their legs, but they go all over the world eating meat; dogs their tails but walk all over the world eating.
Love at first sight or involuntariness is indeed difficult to control, but it will eventually return to calm; just like the flood, at the moment of breaking through the embankment, it is unstoppable, but it will eventually be dissolved by various resistances, and then quietly returned to the sea
Contracts without weapons are a dead letter.
Many people do not listen to persuasion in the face of interests.
If you don't do things according to the rules, you can't do things; but everything is according to the rules, and you can't do things.
If you really want to understand a person, you have to look at his attitude towards interests, that is, money.
To examine a person, the first look at whether he will be discouraged in the face of setbacks; the second look at whether he will be crazy in the face of achievements.
