In fact, like some audience members, the editor dismissed some domestic dramas with the label of "workplace" before, and felt that they would not make any splashes. Why is there such an adverse reaction? It's not because of the collapse of the mentality of those "love dramas" dressed in workplace dramas. It seems that all walks of life are busy with me, and there are few serious things to do.
However, the recent popularity of the workplace drama "Ordinary Glory" has shaken my inherent thinking. Because many of my social and animal friends are watching it, and the response to this drama is pretty good, I also chased it like a wave. After watching it, I will come back to chat with you. First of all, the episodes are about real workplace stories. After 14 episodes, I did not see a clear line of love, which far exceeded my expectations.
Furthermore, this drama has successfully portrayed two main roles-a newbie who knows nothing about the industry and a middle-aged professional with strong business ability but experienced career crisis. Moreover, the production standards including photography, art, and color adjustment are quite high, and the exquisite images of the series are almost comparable to movies.
The most important thing is that "Ordinary Glory" does not copy the old workplace drama routines in clichés. Instead, the story is localized and reasonably set to meet the characteristics of the domestic workplace and restore the workplace experience that everyone is experiencing.
Xiaobai entered the job, a real sense of substitution
Bai Jingting played by Sun Yiqiu is an intern at Jinchen Investment Company. Although it is still unclear how Sun Yiqiu's mother contacted him with such a white-collar job, from the audience's feedback on the barrage, everyone obviously has a sense of substitution for this role.
Whenfirst started, Yiqiu Sun was really trembling, stiff and overwhelmed, and failed to do some simple tasks.
In, the bullet screen "looks like the minutes of my first meeting", "likes the first time I organize reports", "like the first time I use a photocopier"... In fact, geniuses are too rare after all, ordinary people It will always be the majority, so the problems encountered by Xiao Sun during his first career in the play are very familiar. After all, everyone came here like this.
Of course, Sun Yiqiu himself is at a disadvantage compared to ordinary interns. He has never studied at a university, and his knowledge of the investment field is blank. When he first came in, he was asked to do the same jobs as those of the students of the science class, which is indeed a bit difficult. But the boss Wu Kezhi (played by Zhao Youting) didn't care about this. When he first learned that Sun Yiqiu was a blank piece of paper, he was very annoyed to persuade him many times.
"I should have thought that even if I stand here, I still don't belong here. The high-rise buildings are going from 9 to 5 and the conference calls are arguing and entertaining. This is their world. I am just a funny unexpected guest in their world."
Sun Yiqiu is like ordinary us, tired, helpless, and denying himself. Fortunately, he still resisted. Pure white Sun Yiqiu, the frank and confident girl Lan Qianyi, the elite Gao Sicong who is familiar with the rules of the workplace, and the romantic dream-seeking boy Hao Shuai, most drama fans can find their own shadows from these interns.
career crisis, cold sense of reality
As a middle-level employee of Jin Chen, Wu Kezhi has a sharp investment vision, and his business has been successful but has not been reused by the company. In fact, his unwillingness at work has a lot to do with his principle of "different ways to do nothing". Wu Kezhi does not like to cater, does not want to follow the trend, and is unwilling to waste time on socializing, leaving himself in a neglected and marginalized position in the company.
At the beginning of the story, Wu Kezhi, who is the deputy director of the second group of the new business department, in order to prevent the simple agreement of Zhu Zhijie from becoming a victim of capital, he acted out of righteousness and forcibly stopped related projects, but seriously offended the company. Some colleagues. He was supposed to be expelled, but was retained by the company's senior executive Qu Zhonghui and asked him to go to the new fourth group as the person in charge.
If you think that Qu is always a good leader who knows right and wrong, then "pattern"... In fact, this old fox's approach can be described as killing two birds with one stone. It seems that there is no punishment for Wu Kezhi. It also shows the magnanimity of a leader, secretly But transferred him to "trash“Projects” are concentrated and want to force him to retire. After all, the loss of active resignation and passive resignation to the company is very different.
This drama is so realistic. Although it is a bit cold, it is sincere. The role of Wu Kezhi is actually very interesting. He seems to be always doing thankless things, and often has a hot temper with his subordinates.
In fact, Wu Kezhi treats his colleagues as affectionate and righteous, and the outstanding performance of the newcomer Xiao Sun is also remembered by him. In our real world, there are countless middle-aged people who, like Wu Kezhi, have not forgotten their original intentions, silently sticking to their ideals.
has not reached the end, the sense of hope that will never die
In fact, workplace dramas may fall to the other extreme, which is to tell the story too dark and negative. "Ordinary Glory" did not have this problem.
Sun Yiqiu, who is extremely survivable, said: "Until the end, I don’t know how to live or die." Xiao Sun persisted and was accepted by Mr. Wu and Mr. Lin, becoming “our family Yiqiu” and “our four groups of people”. ".
Wu Kezhi was Qu Zhonghui's thorny eye many years ago. He can survive in this big company to this day because he also has good colleagues like Yu Wenli and good subordinates like Lin Yuming. There are indeed orders and rules that we cannot avoid in the workplace, but they cannot prevent us from doing the right things.
Whilepresents the real workplace, it also conveys an indelible sense of hope to professionals, because work itself is a kind of glory, because ordinary glory belongs to everyone who works silently.
