"Spring Sends Love to Love"
2024.4.22
The Golden Wind and Jade Dew Meet
Li Xian seems to have obtained the KPI for rural revitalization in recent years.
In "Go Where the Wind Is" last year, Li Xian returned to "Yunmiao Village" from Beijing to start a business.
and Liu Yifei worked together to promote tourism in Yunnan. After the drama was aired, the number of searches for filming locations soared 50 times.
In this year's "Spring Love", he returned to "Nanping Town" from Shanghai to develop, and Quanzhou Cultural Tourism issued a thank you letter.
However, this time the male protagonist Chen Maidong played by Li Xian is not only down-to-earth, but also a bit "down-to-earth".
Chen Maidong is a funeral director.
In the funeral industry, excellent works have appeared frequently in domestic film and television dramas in recent years, which has gradually eliminated the horror of "death".
"Life Events", "It's Worth It" and "Sanyue Has a New Job" respectively focus on the funeral director, the person who wrote the eulogy, and the body plastic surgeon.
The protagonists played by Zhu Yilong, Hu Ge, and Zhou Yiran have similar temperaments, and they are sad but also secretly powerful.
The same is true for Chen Maidong, played by Li Xian in this drama.
Serious and cold, keep away from strangers.
Until he met Zhuang Jie (played by Zhou Yutong) who was returning to his hometown for vacation on the high-speed rail.
Zhou Yutong’s role this time is still that of a worker.
Zhuang Jie worked hard in Shanghai, working in a medical device company that was seriously involved in internal affairs, and became a gold medal salesperson at a young age.
She talks and laughs, gets things done in both directions, and is comparable to a social gangster. She is a social nurse and doctor even in the hospital bed.
tries to let the prosperous city give her a place.
Until the doctor issued a death order, asking her to rest for a while after the operation.
So she returned to her hometown of Nanping Town and met her high school classmate Chen Maidong on the high-speed rail.
Once the golden wind and jade dew meet, they will win over countless others in the world.
The camera turned back to a few years ago.
The young Maidong is Ayuan in "The Wind"
The two have been secretly in love with each other since high school and try to save each other.
Zhuang Jie lost her father and her left calf in a car accident when she was in high school.
She relies on crutches to walk, is silent and has low self-esteem.
When Chen Maidong was in high school, his parents divorced and he lived with his grandmother.
Because of this, Chen Maidong got into fights and became a "bad boy".
He walks on his fists, is cold and surly.
The intersection between the two people originated from a confrontation in the toilet.
Chen Maidong snatched Zhuang Jie's crutches and fought with the gossiping gangster, with a proud face but like a victorious general.
He told Zhuang Jie——
A crutch can also be a weapon.
But the childhood crush ended when Zhuang Jie left without saying goodbye and she transferred to another school.
met again, many years later on the high-speed train.
At that time, Zhuang Jie changed from the withdrawn person she was when she was a child, with a bright smile and full of vitality.
But in Chen Maidong's eyes, only the word "frivolous" remains.
The town is not big, so the two of them naturally interact more and more.
The heartbeat of childhood resurfaced, and with the help of Grandma Chen Maidong, ambiguity and temptation wandered between the two adults.
But both of them also understood that Zhuang Jie was going to leave.
So one of them flirted with the sky, and the other didn't accept the move.
One is pretending to be frivolous, the other is serious and restrained.
Abiding by male morality Chen Maidong
But when he suddenly learned that Zhuang Jie was going back to Shanghai, Chen Maidong couldn't hold it back and came to the station to see Zhuang Jie off.
Single men and women are about to leave, and hormones are at work, so it is naturally easy to get addicted.
In the high-speed rail corridor, Zhuang Jie forcefully kissed Chen Maidong, and Chen Maidong lowered his head to deepen the kiss.
As the train passed by, the two separated again.
Everyone knows that there are no secrets in this small town.
The news of "Chen Maidong and a beautiful woman passionately kissed at the station" made headlines in the town.
Zhuang Jie walked away, thousands of miles away and turned off his phone, unaffected.
Chen Maidong is a celebrity in a small town. People in the town gossip and kill people. Chen Maidong is so angry that he blackmails Zhuang Jie.
Zhuang Jie never thought that he and his hometown would see each other again soon.
Romance is thinner than paper
"Hometown" and "foreign land" are an ancient proposition.
From ancient times to the present, as many wanderers have left their hometowns, there is as much homesickness waiting to be expressed.
But in recent years, the trend of "escape from the metropolis" has spread to movies and TV dramas.
starts with Japanese and Korean dramas, "Nagi's New Life", "I Don't Want to Do Anything", and "Welcome Back to Sandali".
Then go to domestic dramas, "Where the Wind Is Going" and "Hometown".
all have the same motivation for returning home. They are too tired from the big city and want to escape.
Korean drama "I don't want to do anything"
But Zhuang Jie in "Spring Love" is different, she likes Shanghai.
Perhaps it is just like the saying "Nostalgia is a man's Odyssey, and escape is an epic carved into the female body."
Zhuang Jie has been determined to take root in Shanghai since the first day she was admitted to Shanghai, and to see higher and further scenery.
She likes the roads in Shanghai, the bridges in Shanghai, and the high-rise buildings in Shanghai.
But what I like more is myself in Shanghai.
It is difficult to move forward without connections in a county town, but the rules of a big city are clearly visible.
Everyone is working hard to climb up, no one will stare at her legs, and no one will rush her because she is 30+.
The kiss on the high-speed train was just a temporary indulgence. She still wanted to see the wider world.
But if the screenwriter writes it this way, it will become a history of the heroine’s struggle.
So, the screenwriter arranged a heavy blow for Zhuang Jie.
Zhuang Jie's stepfather passed away suddenly due to an accident.
Shanghai is fast-paced and time is precious. No one will stop for your tears. The screenwriter
only used a few strokes and one shot to describe the indifference of the big city.
Zhuang Jie had to deal with her grief and once again left her job in Shanghai temporarily and returned to her hometown to take care of her stepfather's funeral with her younger siblings.
Zhuang Jie stayed longer this time, and the bond with Chen Maidong became deeper.
At the same time, what follows are trade-offs and trade-offs.
For example, Zhuang Jie will suddenly get angry at Chen Maidong during intimacy. This emotion seems inexplicable.
But it actually stems from Zhuang Jie’s inferiority complex. She was once rejected by her ex-boyfriend because of her ugly prosthetic limbs.
This is also a ptsd.
For example, Zhuang Jie's mother will be angry because of her relationship with Chen Maidong.
This is not only due to Chen Maidong’s native family and unruly youth, but also due to the protection of his daughter.
After all, in the eyes of the older generation, it is the girls who suffer the consequences of a romantic relationship.
Especially in a small town, Tumo Xingzi drowns people, and his reputation is more valuable than gold.
Another example is Zhuang Jie’s self-choice.
We sing the praises of pure love because most of the love in reality is desire and restraint, heartbeat and trade-off.
The heroine in this play is not a passionate lover, but an "imperfect girlfriend".
She is very sober: "I really like Chen Maidong, but I prefer Shanghai and myself."
Love your neighbor first.
This makes the character Zhuang Jie more tense and charming.
Why don't I write spring poems
Of course, in addition to the mutual flirtation between the male and female protagonists, this drama is not limited to love and returning home.
It only has 21 episodes, but it uses a lot of space to describe "death".
This is very similar to "Going to Where the Wind Is". It also involves the sudden death of relatives and friends, and Li Xian (Chen Maidong, Xie Zhiyao) also describes death.
Xie Zhiyao said -
"When you say her name, she exists."
Chen Maidong said -
"Life will not disappear, it just exists in another form."
"When people When you leave this world, scientists have speculated that the billions of atoms in your body begin to alienate and are no longer subject to the human form. The parts that make up the human body are taken apart like a sweater, accompanying the person at the end. With a breath, these atoms began to break down and merge into the surrounding land. The atoms formed new ways of organizing themselves, and they became the leaves of a rhododendron, a speckled snail, a corn kernel, the roof of a beetle, and even a stick on a bird's tail. Feathers. But each of these atoms carries the previous mark, so life does not disappear, it just exists in another form.
"The Story of Death" David Eagleman
Through "death". , the play also slowly unfolds the decades-old friendship between a pair of old best friends.
Grandma Chen is vigorous and resolute, while Grandma Lin is gentle and petty.
When they are 70 years old, they can still blow out candles together, celebrate birthdays, drink heavily, and walk hand in hand in the countryside.
Grandma Chen calls Grandma Lin Sister Lin, and Grandma Lin also uses tarot cards to trick Grandma Chen, which is fashionable and funny.
Grandma Lin’s life is also quite legendary in the small town.
She had a vigorous love affair when she was young. After her boyfriend died for some reason, she remained unmarried.
Open a pet hospital, take care of flowers and plants, and live a free and unrestrained life.
The play also dispelled many stereotypes.
For example, when it comes to funeral directors in the past, everyone always felt that they were unlucky and inferior.
But in this drama, Chen Maidong is respected in the town. He sits at the head table at the banquet, and his family members express their gratitude when talking to each other.
is even popular in the blind date market.
After all, being a mortician is a professional career, and competition is fierce.
and Zhuang Jie’s disability.
There is a control group in the play. There is a young man suffering from bone cancer who will die if his limbs are not amputated.
But it was difficult for him to accept his disability, and he even wanted to choose death.
Looking at Zhuang Jie again, she almost got engaged to a disabled boy from a neighboring village when she was young, and spent her life in confusion.
But she refused to compromise. Instead, she spent more than ten years polishing the crutch into a weapon and pointing it at life.
I couldn’t help but think of the survivor of the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake, the short video blogger "Brother Chunyou".
She lost her right leg due to the Wenchuan earthquake when she was 11 years old. When she was 21 years old, she stood at the starting line of the first Wenchuan Marathon.
"Life is like a dark room, so I might as well write spring poems in the open."
She said, I also have the magic weapon of "light" legs.

In fact, until the end, "Spring Love" is not like "Go Where the Wind Is", it is not a healing drama.
It's not perfect because it's our life.
makes people cry, but also makes people strong, and also wants to teach people how to love.
Finally, I give it to everyone as written in Grandma Lin’s letter -
You must wear clean clothes and eat hot meals.
I hope that all the treasures you have for the rest of your life will not be understood by losing them.
