"Snowflake That Drifts" is a companion to the TV series "The North Wind That Blows", directed by An Jian, written by Gao Mantang, and starring Zhang Yi, Pan Yuchen, Liu Weiwei, Tu Songyan, Mao Bao and so on. The play mainly tells the life of the first generation of college students in China in 1977, when the news of the resumption of the college entrance examination reached the beautiful and distant Fenghuangtun, the whole village boiled, from the Zhiqing who cut in the queue to the firewood girls in the village, everyone was eager to try and want to change their fate with knowledge. Zhiqing Zhao Changtian and Chai Huoyu Liu Cuicui are the representatives of many Phoenix Tun candidates.
The script is emotionally moving, from the perspective of many college students to tell the joys and sorrows of young people in that special era, with the Chinese department of Ningzhou Normal College as the plot place, stringing together that fiery era, but also evoking countless people who experienced that era.
Here I will analyze the emotional entanglement between Zhao Changtian and Liu Cuicui (Chu Meng), Tao Tiantian and Li Kuo, Leng Xuesong and Xu Wenli to analyze people's pursuit of love in special eras.
The difference between urban and rural areas, Zhao Changtian's parents opposed.
Zhao Changtian is a young man who joined the team of Fenghuang tun, is upright, righteous and chivalrous, willing to report injustice, and dares to act boldly. Liu Cuicui is a private teacher at Fenghuangtun Primary School, she is beautiful, kind-hearted, and has always had a crush on Zhao Changtian from the city, and her relationship with Zhao Changtian has been blurred, until Zhao Changtian returned to the city to prepare for the exam, Liu Cuicui could not let go of her heart and ran to visit him.
But the attitude of Zhao Changtian's parents directly poured a basin of cold water on Liu Cuicui's heart, and Changtian's parents did not recognize Cuicui, the daughter-in-law from the countryside, first, to worry about the distraction of Changtian's preparation, and second, to worry that Cuicui would come to their home, and resolutely did not take in Cuicui, who was not familiar with life, and let her go to the hotel alone.
Here, contrary to Cuicui's situation, is Chu Meng, she is young and beautiful, her family background is superior, and her father is a famous economics professor, which can be described as a delicate woman in heaven. When such a perfect girl appeared in front of Zhao Changtian's parents, they were completely different faces, asking left and right, hating not being able to let them get married immediately.
Zhao Changtian's parents have very different attitudes towards two girls who also like their son, which also confirms that feelings are a matter of two people, but to get married is a contradiction between the two families. Two people come together not only need an emotional foundation, but also a degree of fit, family lineage, knowledge, upbringing, etc. will inexplicably appear on the balance between the two, which is human nature and a reality.
Emotional differences, unequal emotional investment, doomed To Liu Cuicui's misery.
The feelings between Zhao Changtian and Liu Cuicui were not equal at the beginning, Cuicui loved Changtian, but Changtian was a very vague feeling for Cuicui, which should be said to be an emotional state between love and gratitude. Therefore, when Cuicui was looking for him, his parents did not agree to let Cuicui stay at home, and he did not insist and directly took Cuicui to the inn.
However, Zhao Changtian could not grasp it for a while after drinking, and slept with Liu Cuicui in the hotel. Afterwards, he had a vague impression of this matter, and repeatedly asked Liu Cuicui to confirm this matter, Liu Cuicui has been vague about Zhao Changtian, on the one hand, he is ashamed to say it, on the other hand, he does not want to distract Zhao Changtian from the university entrance examination. Emotionally, once the girl is serious, she will be desperate, and she has repeatedly helped Zhao Changtian through the difficulties at critical times and fully supported him to enter the university.
Emotionally, Cuicui is very serious, even for Zhao Changtian to be able to take the exam, even if Zhao Changtian's stomach pain can't get up, in the ice and snow, she is a weak woman who has to carry him to the examination room, and finally Zhao Changtian successfully completed the exam and was admitted to Ningzhou Normal College, but Liu Cuicui fainted because of fatigue and passed by the college entrance examination, and sometimes a turn may be a lifetime.
What love is, love is something that can be lived for or can die for. Liu Cuicui's treatment of Zhao Changtian is undoubtedly like this, but such unequal emotions are destined to end in tragedy.
Responsibility is not equal to love, Liu Cuicui's children let Zhao Changtian awaken, but that has nothing to do with love.
After they shared a bed in that hotel, Liu Cuicui became pregnant, and in the case of Zhao Changtian's ignorance, Liu Cuicui gave birth to a premature daughter Liu Hua'er in the cold wind and rain in the wilderness. She suffered from severe rheumatic heart disease due to too much wind and cold, and later she was frustrated by feelings, depressed, and suffered from cancer.
Zhao Changtian bravely accepted this fact and took responsibility after knowing the truth of the matter, taking care of Liu Cuicui's mother and daughter, and curing Cuicui's illness, but unfortunately this is Zhao Changtian's responsibility as a man, it is a responsibility, but it has nothing to do with love, so Liu Cuicui can only choose to marry Cao Wuming in the same village in the end, because she knows her position in Zhao Changtian's heart.
Love is pure, just like Zhao Changtian and Chu Meng, they have laughter and trouble, but each other is the only one in each other's eyes, because in Zhao Changtian's eyes: "Only Chu Meng is really beautiful."
The fear arising from guilt was dissolved in Li Kuo's generosity.
Due to historical reasons, Tao Naturally lost his hand in the parade and pushed Li Kuo off the stage, causing him to be permanently disabled, and his family was destroyed
On the first day of being admitted to the Ningzhou Normal School, she saw Li Kuo appear in front of her in a wheelchair, she was shocked, ashamed, and blamed herself, and then repeatedly skipped class in Li Kuo's class, which was an escape psychology caused by guilt. Li Kuo calmly accepted this reality and forgave Tao Natural, and also helped her with her homework, such a generous man made Tao Natural feel admiration.
It takes courage and timing to go from admiration to love.
College students who came from a special era, they are full of vitality, have ideas, when the high-ranking cadre Leng Cedar appeared in the class singing cheerleaders and told the storyline of "The Hunt" with emotion, he said to all the students: "Do you guess who Ken Takakura is like?" Li Kuo! This sentence fell on Tao Tian's heart like a bomb, and her feelings for Li Kuo changed.
After that, Tao naturally frequently contacted Li Kuo for various reasons, and the class engaged in literary and artistic performances, and she insisted on choosing a Hubei folk song to sing, because Li Kuo was from Hubei, she had sufficient reasons to ask Li Kuo to practice with her. The seeds of love sprout between them, although this relationship is against the law of etiquette, but we can not jump out of history at any time to interpret, just like their generation of college students from a special era, everyone has a story, some have married and had children, some are old, so in this context, the feelings between teachers and students are also generously recognized by the students, from the "what is love" debate they held, it can be seen that most teachers and students are still very supportive of the love between them.
Although in the end Li Kuo still chose to leave, but it is undeniable that in his heart, Tao nature has been put in his heart, sometimes having love is very beautiful, very complete, but more often, the beauty of leaving regrets can more touch people's hearts and resonate, let me ask who does not regret and feel sorry for the two of them? This may be the charm of art.
Love has no fixed form, and two completely different people will also have unforgettable feelings
Leng Cedar is the son of Commander Leng of the Military Region, a policeman before going to college, and he has always given you a sense of arrogance and domineering, which may also be the sense of superiority brought to him by his origin. In school, he provoked anyone in the class, Han Laoliu was almost driven crazy by him, Lü Weibing was despised by him and could not lift his head, the youngest Ding Xuewu in the class was mercilessly ridiculed by him, etc., he was a stupid boy in the eyes of everyone, of course, in Xu Wenli's eyes.
Xu Wenli is a member of the study committee in the class, excellent grades, love to write poetry, has reached the point of magic, and even almost went to the end of the road because of a bet with Tao Nature, fortunately, Ding Xuewu voted her representative poem "To the Distance" to the Yellow River Poetry Society to save her, but also let her become famous in one fell swoop, became a famous poet in everyone's eyes, if it were not for Xu Wenli's poetry publication, it may never intersect with Leng Cedar, but the feelings may be that momentary sparkle shines into each other's hearts, swinging waves.
The greatness of love is that it may not have an ending, but it is still desirable.
Xu Wenli hindered each other's talent background and life experience, has been rejecting the pursuit of Leng Cedar, until finally Leng Cedar left a disability for firefighting, Xu Wenli bravely put down the burden and confessed her feelings, but they still failed to be together, why beautiful love is a happy beginning and a miserable ending, everyone may have an answer in their hearts.
"Snowflakes That Drift" is not a simple TV series. Among them, those who have experienced that special era see the feelings from it, and those of us who have never experienced it see the touch from it. Love is the object of praise in any age and at any time, because we all yearn for beautiful and great love.
This TV series has also brought the two generations closer together, established a bridge of communication between them, told the interesting stories of the experience of that era, and the family had talked and laughed, presumably there is no happier thing than this.
