The topic and popularity of "Against the Current" has always been high, why is this TV series so popular? As some scholars pointed out, now China's TV dramas have entered the "topic era", and what is written is some topics that can cause public discussion, just like the concept of love and marriage in the TV series "Against the Current", which has resonated with many netizens.
Yang Guang (Pan Yueming) and Liu Ai (Ma Li) are a loving young newlywed couple. Liu Ai is a typical working woman, capable, free and independent; Yang Guang is the technical backbone of the company, honest and responsible, only his wife is obedient. They wanted to work hard to make money, change to a bigger house and have a baby. But Liu Ai accidentally "lost his job", Yang Guang also faced the risk of unemployment, and at this time, Liu Ai accidentally became pregnant. Faced with the pressure that ensues, can the young couple swim against the current? In addition to the "bankrupt couple" composed of Yang Guang and Liu Ai, in the later stages of "You Against the Current", there are also the "flash marriage couple" of Zou Kai (played by Sun Jian) and Gao Mi (played by Huang Mengying), the "halfway couple" of Wang Daquan (played by Li Naiwen) and Gao Hongqi (played by Liu Weiwei), and the three couples represent the post-80s, post-90s and post-70s respectively to show their different attitudes towards feelings, marriage and fertility. And these seem to be the problem of getting along with the other half, in fact, these are still "how" to get along with themselves, in love and marriage, the road ahead is not always smooth, we need to go against the current to seize our own happiness.
"I think our persistence is for the sake of, even if we end up falling into cumbersomeness and washing away the lead, the same work, but there is a different state of mind, the same family, but there is a different mood, the same offspring, but a different quality." 」 In today's diversified life, women play different roles at different levels, and in this multi-layered identity, they must stick to themselves and dare to be their own women, and her life does not belong to anyone, only to herself. In love, some people like to say, "I'd rather sit in a BMW and cry than sit on a bicycle and laugh." "Love is always linked to bread, in love and bread, Liu Ai chose a potential stock husband, although the family does not have much property, but the husband is still a more capable and talented person." Gao Hongqi herself is a woman with a successful career, fierce, very confident, in her life, there is no shortage of money, but a true temperament woman who is very eager to get love. Gao Mi is just the opposite, she has a little woman feelings, meets her own rich and handsome object, and strives to pursue the man she likes, just like Gao Mi and Zou Kai's mother said that she loves not only Zou Kai's money, but if Zou Kai has no money, I will not marry him. Therefore, Liu Ai and Gao Hongqi will choose love in love and bread, while Gao Mi is relatively biased towards bread.
However, in any view of love and marriage, there is no absolute who is right and who is wrong. Only when women love themselves will they be loved by them. In this life, only oneself is one's final destination and refuge. Because the parents who love and care for themselves will one day grow old, their partners will choose to leave themselves, their siblings will return to their families, their children will grow up, any safe haven is temporary, only they are their eternal dependence. Maybe you will also encounter various problems in life, as long as you stick to yourself, you will eventually find your own happiness against the current! As sung in the theme song, "I hope you love him and you can love yourself, and you can love flowers and face the wind and snow." I hope you don't forget what you do, don't lose your most precious self. Yangtze Evening News/Purple Cow News reporter Huang Yanwen
