On the evening of March 16, the TV series " Ode to Joy 5" premiered on Yangba, and was launched online on iQiyi and Tencent Video. This TV series continues the story content of " Ode to Joy 3" and " Ode to Joy 4". In the opening plot, there is another quick prospect review, which basically summarizes the entire content of "Ode to Joy 4". Immediately afterwards, "Ode to Joy 5" entered a multi-episode episode of Stanley Ho's demonic moments.
After the first few episodes were broadcast, a large number of viewers exclaimed, how did He Minhong become like this? Under such circumstances, can this character be cleared in the future? Obviously, at this moment, He Minhong has transformed into Xie Guangkun. In many aspects, "Ode to Joy 5" is already very consistent with the tonality of the " Country Love " series.
When I introduced the release information of "Ode to Joy 5", I already expressed my personal opinion. I believe that "Ode to Joy 5" is Shanghai's urban version of "Country Love". When Ho Min-hong transformed into Xie Guangkun in the opening plot of "Ode to Joy 5", I became even more convinced that this TV series was just a Shanghai version of "Country Love". That person asked, why did He Minhong act like a monster?
This is inevitable in the creation of many shoddy TV series. For example, in the "Country Love" series, why is Xie Guangkun allowed to act like a monster? Because in this country-themed comedy, if there were no people acting as monsters, there would be no way to put together the plot. Letting the character Xie Guangkun act as a monster can create a lot of conflicts, reflect the positive image of other characters, and create a TV series worth one or even several seasons.
When a TV series has nothing to write about or act in, it must darken one or more characters in it to create a situation that seems to have a story. Teacher Zhao Benshan 's "Country Love" series is a "model" in this regard. In each season of the work, one or several characters act like monsters, and they work hard to make up the plot by acting like monsters. Of course, we should try not to laugh at the "Country Love" series, because many of our professional writers write with a strong flavor of rural love. For example, the "Maihe" written by Guan Renshan, the chairman of our Hebei Writers Association, is a typical "hometown-style foot wrap" without any talent.
Back to "Ode to Joy 5", if He Minhong didn't become a monster, then this TV series would also face the problem of having no story. After letting He Minhong turn on the demon mode, he can compare the strengths of other characters. This is a typical creative approach of sacrificing one character to achieve other characters. This style of writing is an inevitable and helpless choice after refusing to contemplate reality.
It stands to reason that a group of young women working hard in Shanghai will encounter many practical difficulties. How could " Ode to Joy " face the problem of having no story to tell? However, when creators close their eyes, do not face real problems, and do not learn from reality, problems will arise in series such as "Country Love" and "Ode to Joy". It seems that there are too many dramas, but in fact they are really There are not many stories about them, they are all used as monsters to make up for the evil.
The reason why the "Country Love" series has always been popular is because, in the country comedy TV series, Zhao Benshan's team has always been the scorpion daddy, and no one can surpass it. On the other hand, the "Ode to Joy" series is not so lucky. Whether it is Shanghai urban themes or female themes, there are currently a large number of dramas of the same type that have surpassed the "Ode to Joy" series. Therefore, the drama faced even more widespread negative reviews.
It is reported that "Ode to Joy 5" is the final chapter of this series. After all, there is no one like "Country Love", which can produce many extra works every year. The current problem of the "Ode to Joy" series is that it not only refuses to pay attention to reality, but also does not have the real pain points of women's existence. At the same time, it uses the characters as monsters to make up for the numbers. In the end, it lost the vast majority of its female audience and only fans are left. Type groups are enjoying themselves.
In addition, I don’t know if you have noticed that whether it is the "Country Love" series or the "Ode to Joy" series, they like to let the characters sit and say a lot of lines, and most of these lines are like preaching. This is one of the easiest ways to add water to TV drama scripts. The screenwriters stood on the moral high ground and preached to the audience in the form of characters. The screenwriter thought that what he was talking about was all about the soul, but in fact, it was not even chicken soup.
In this case, this "Ode to Joy 5" is the final chapter, and the screenwriter and director can feel relieved. (Text/Ma Qingyun)
