"Wind Chaser", the director happily said that he was going to shoot the second part, so some netizens joked, "You can see Li Qin was so anxious on set that Shen Jinzhen died in the first part , she has nothing to do with the second part.
To say that the most miserable character in "The Storm Chaser" is probably Shen Jinzhen. The reason is very simple. This character wasted Shen Jinzhen and Li Qin.
1. Perfect Shen Jinzhen
Before talking about the reasons for waste, let us first understand what kind of strength the character Shen Jinzhen has.
In terms of appearance, Shen Jinzhen can be called the top-notch good-looking person in Shanghai. He is naturally beautiful and fashionable.
In terms of academic qualifications, Shen Jinzhen has the status of an international student in Germany and was among the top talents in the country at that time.
In terms of talent and learning, Shen Jinzhen’s piano is also one of the best in Shanghai.
In his family life, Shen Jinzhen came from a well-known family. His brother Shen Tunan was a financial genius who had returned from studying abroad. He was the actual controller of the central bank. He was also a celebrity in front of Mr. Qi Song, a relative of the imperial family. He was also valued by Chairman Chiang for a time.
In terms of character, Shen Jinzhen not only has a kind heart, but also has the ambition to serve the country.
In terms of personality, Shen Jin is really cheerful, lively and approachable.
It can be said that Shen Jinzhen in "The Storm Chaser" is almost a perfect person. She really gets what she wants. She is exactly the configuration of a heroine in a refreshing novel.
2. Waste of Shen Jinzhen
Shen Jinzhen was actually a sniper on a mission when she first appeared in "Wind Chaser". Before knowing her identity and strength, being a female sniper was not a violation.
However, when we understand Shen Jinzhen's perfect identity and look back at the tasks she performed, you will feel that the screenwriter of "Storm Chaser" is simply a waste of resources.
Putting aside family background, appearance, and talent, Shen Jinzhen, as a senior engineer of the Kuomintang arsenal who returned from studying abroad, does not know how valuable she is even in the country, let alone in the underground party?
A talent that even the director of the Kuomintang arsenal takes every possible care of is actually sent by the underground party to perform a highly dangerous sniper mission, and even shoots with Lin Qiaosong, the detective team. Is the screenwriter mocking the underground party as not paying as much attention to talent as the Kuomintang?
What’s even more ridiculous is that Shen Jinzhen is not only responsible for the rescue mission, but also a raping mission. Come on, her brother is a senior adviser to the central bank. Rapeing will not bring out her best role, but is a huge waste of talent.
What is Shen Jinzhen’s ideal state? When working, she can lurk in the Kuomintang arsenal to collect military intelligence. When she returns home, she can collect economic intelligence from her brother's side. When socializing, she can perform social tasks with Shanghai ladies, use legal means to rescue comrades, deliver news, and help the organization handle various affairs.
Therefore, the underground party let Shen Jinzhen perform highly dangerous sniper and rape missions, which is a complete waste of precious talents. It is equivalent to letting Lu Xun be an assassin and Guo Moruo a killer. If you are such a talented screenwriter, why don't you let Mr. Song's second sister be the one? Sniper?
When Shen Jinzhen goes to the Soviet area, he can always arrange a suitable job. Even if the Soviet area does not have such a large-scale arsenal, Shen Jinzhen can use the existing conditions to manufacture arms and train military personnel, and on the other hand, he can also use connections to recruit people from overseas. Purchase machinery and equipment.
Don’t forget, the Soviet area had the trade channel of the Guangdong Army at that time, and the Germans also bought tungsten sand from the Guangdong Army. With Shen Jinzhen’s connections in Germany, she could definitely use the Guangdong Army to buy equipment from overseas.
However, Shen Jinzhen's job after arriving in the Soviet area was actually to be a trainer in the special company of the bank in the Soviet area, teaching the soldiers shooting techniques.
The job of a military coach is of course very important, but this kind of job can be done by an officer who graduated from a military academy, or even by a veteran. There is no need for a senior engineer like Shen Jinzhen to teach shooting.
Asking Shen Jinzhen to teach shooting techniques is equivalent to asking Qian Xuesen to go to middle school to teach middle school students the principles of thermal expansion and contraction.
Looking at Shen Jinzhen’s work arrangements in Shanghai and the Soviet Area, I really can’t understand one thing. Why do the Shanghai underground party and the Soviet Area not know how to cherish talents and still mess around with each other? Is it because they don’t understand or the screenwriters of “Storm Chaser” don’t understand?
3. Waste of Li Qin
The author believes that the script of "The Storm Chaser" may have been changed, because the scenes between Li Qin and Wang Yibo, that is, between Shen Jinzhen and Wei Ruolai, have the problem of unclear explanations.
Let’s look at the identity comparison between Shen Jinzhen and Wei Ruolai. One is a rich lady, the other is a poor boy, one is a Shanghai socialite, the other is a rural dog in Jiangxi, one is a senior engineer in the arsenal, one is a central bank financial genius, and the other is Shen Tu. Nan's sister, one is Shen Tunan's apprentice.
With such a contrasting and very fitting character design, if "Storm Chaser" didn't design an emotional scene for them from the beginning, no one would believe it. Isn't this a perfect scene for a little princess and a phoenix man? Even Shen Tunan's daughter paved the way for the two of them and directly called Wei Ruolai "little uncle".
There is also the acquaintance between Shen Jinzhen and Wei Ruolai. Shen Jinzhen was injured and left the scene after failing in his mission. Wei Ruolai went to the street to stop Aunt Zhou after she failed in stock trading, and then the two robbed the same rickshaw.
When he discovered that there were agents inspecting the car, Shen Jinzhen immediately hugged Wei Ruolai and pretended to be a young couple. The smart Wei Ruolai understood immediately when he saw the blood stains on her body. In this way, both of them left a deep impression on each other.
Scenes like this where the hero and heroine meet by chance and the hero accidentally saves the beauty are everywhere in various film and television dramas. If you want to say that the screenwriter does not want to arrange an emotional scene, then you arrange such a routine first meeting scene specifically for Fooling the audience?
4. Waste of Feelings
Shen Tunan and Shen Jinzhen were in two camps at first. Shen Tunan once warned Shen Jinzhen sternly and even made her kneel before her parents' graves to swear an oath, which shows how determined his attitude is.
You must know that if Shen Jinzhen's identity is exposed, Shen Tunan's career will be ruined, and maybe even Shen Tunan and Shen Jinzhen's family will be implicated, so Shen Tunan's caution is not just because of different camps.
However, after Shen Jinzhen's identity was exposed, for the sake of the relationship between brother and sister, even though Shen Tunan slapped his sister in anger, he still rescued Shen Jinzhen twice, and the last time even almost cost his own life.
In the blink of an eye, Shen Tunan was captured and faced with the news that his brother had been sentenced to death, Shen Jinzhen actually did not do anything except cry and send his brother off.
In fact, Shen Jin really has many ways to save her brother's life. On the one hand, she can report it to her superiors and strive to retain Shen Tunan, a high-level talent. On the other hand, she can also persuade Shen Tunan to stay on her own initiative. At the worst, she can It is not uncommon in history to suggest that superiors use Shen Tunan in exchange for arrested comrades or to obtain more conditions.
Unfortunately, there is nothing. I don’t know whether Shen Jin really forgot how to save his brother or the screenwriter of "Wind Chaser" forgot, and in the end she became the brother who is affectionate and righteous but the sister is cold-blooded and ruthless.
Perhaps it is because there are too many unreasonable factors in Shen Jinzhen that "Storm Chaser" made this character sacrifice in a daze, and it was over.
What a pity.
