After only two episodes in the air, "Goodbye Lover 4" has exploded again and again.

First, Yang Zi, , Huang Shengyi, and couple were frequently searched, and every entry exceeded imagination. The audience originally thought that the couple appeared on the "Divorce Variety Show" to make money for "the whole thing", and they relied solely on acting to get through the show, but they found that things were not that simple. Yang Zi's strong "daddy flavor" in his words and deeds made the show The audience's "big daddy glasses" were surprised to be able to contribute new heights of comedy between the two talk show finals.

In the first episode of the program, middle-aged Internet addict Yang Zi and his 7 mobile phones + 7 WeChat IDs contributed too many bad jokes, and once again raised the standard of dark cuisine for the "fried blackened instant noodles" cooked by Huang Shengyi. Coupled with the "dad-like" speech, not only did the other two wives in the show who were in relationship crisis find their husbands more pleasing to the eye, many female friends who followed the show felt that their husbands or boyfriends were "not as bad as Yang Zi" ”.

When more and more people open "Goodbye Lover 4" to see how outrageous Yang Zi can be, the "bug moments" in the marriages of the other two guest couples also continue to surface, and the guests in the observation room and The audience is taken deeper into the "abyss" of marriage.

It turns out that this season's "King of Understanding" is just a pre-dinner aperitif, and the follow-up dishes are one after another: from the couple Li Xingliang and Mai Lin who are suspected of being in love with each other to feeling suffocated, to Liu Shuang (the former Internet celebrity Liu Jishou) ) and the huge debt marriage between Ge Xi and his wife... When a variety show enters its fourth season, it is still so climax-ridden. It can only be said that the complexity of real life is the best script.

Although each season of "Goodbye Lover" can unlock some traffic passwords, the overwhelming traffic brought by Yang Zi and Huang Shengyi was probably something that the program team did not expect. As soon as the program was aired, "Yang Xue" had successfully crushed "Ke Xue" and became a new popular school.

From the beginning of the program preview, Yang Zi has single-handedly completed the topic + traffic KPI of this season's program. It is as popular as the hit drama and as funny as the two talk shows broadcast at the same time. Even in the simplest self-introduction session, he would use "president" to preempt others, and then use a series of titles to complete the multiverse of his identity, causing netizens to apologize to Dabing one after another.

This less than one minute introduction quickly brought out netizens' review of his past history: when he was passionate about acting, he was a "fairy match" with Huang Shengyi and several unnamed dramas; When he was keen on collecting, he invited Li Yapeng to his mansion to see a teapot worth hundreds of millions. Li Yapeng responded by giving him a 1970s look; after entering the live broadcast industry, he only sold one order of 1.7 million bacon and was even investigated. Yang Zi, who holds many titles, has only one most famous label in the eyes of the public: Huang Shengyi's husband. To paraphrase the words of another guest Liu Shuang, "We the public have only seen you enjoying Huang Shengyi's popularity for so many years..."

Because of the existence of Yang Zi, this marriage documentary observation reality show has become an NPD ( Narcissistic Personality Disorder ) Daily panoramic display show, and the "Yang Xue" that never suffers from internal friction was born. Yang Zi has 7 mobile phones and 7 WeChat messages so that he can respond to messages in a timely manner because he does not want to disappoint any of his friends.At the same time, Yang Zi, who is so "loyal", knows almost nothing about his wife Huang Shengyi except for her ID number. He got the lowest score of 14 points in the marriage physical examination questionnaire, but he dared to laugh at Huang Shengyi's hobbies to save money when he couldn't answer the question.

Yang Xue is that Yang Zi has his own unique way of dealing with the outside world. Liu Shuang's words were full of teasing and sarcasm, which he could immediately turn into praise for himself; Huang Shengyi accused him of failing to fulfill his duties as a father. He could transfer his identity as a collector to letting his children learn traditional culture. In terms of left and right, he is Yang Zi's specialty. Like a black hole in the universe, he can always quickly absorb other people's expressions and then destroy them, creating a pile of dregs comparable to dark cuisine.

Yang Xue also has a choking "daddy smell". He said that Huang Shengyi was a little brat. He asked the female photographer whom he was familiar with when he just met her, asking her age, relationship status, and even asked "what's your last name" when the other party asked sharp questions. Faced with Huang Shengyi's explanation of the two people's marriage problems in the show, Yang Ziyun said "It's the Chinese New Year" lightly, which can be called one of the horrific remarks of the year. Some people commented that Yang Zi has a sense of imagery, and his eloquent speeches can be seamlessly matched with the group's high-level roundtable meeting.

"Father enough and self-consistent" made Yang Zi a well-deserved traffic code this season, and he also contributed a lot of jokes. Liu Shuang responded to Yang Zi accurately many times, He still has the sharp style that he retained a few times in the past. For example, after Yang Zi's output, he directly threw a "Knowing King" in his face.

Liu Shuang replied to Yang Zi

Yang Zi probably hadn’t been so bluntly criticized by someone of the same sex in the past twenty years, so he had to leave the scene on the excuse of going to the toilet. However, going to the toilet all the time would make him appear to be in poor health, so he immediately put together a The plan of "fighting back" to save some money: You said I won't repay my wife? No, I am a low-key person, and I will definitely show off my love for my wife in a high-profile manner from now on.

However, in some aspects, Yang Zi should be a role model for women. He is using practical actions to tell girls that self-confidence and self-consistency are very important. If you read indiscriminately at the critical moment, you are definitely not the one with the problem. , you are the center of the universe.

Every season of "Goodbye Lover" has an unchanging proposition, who is the couple most deserving of divorce this season.

This season's program aired two episodes, #Goodbye Lover 4 The Couple Who Should Divorce was hotly searched as promised, but the trend of betting on divorce has changed. The show has just been broadcast, and netizens hope that Huang Shengyi can leave Big Daddy. The last time Huang Shengyi was so optimistic was probably his appearance in the movie " Kung Fu ".

After marrying Yang Zi, her many mysterious operations caused her popularity to fall to the bottom. For example, the famous "fainted and sent to the hospital before the Oscars red carpet" marketing was later discovered to have not been invited at all. An actress who originally had a good stardom was publicly humiliated by her husband on the show as "uneducated". She carried goods in the live broadcast room with an expressionless face like an AI. She stayed in a vacant house and took care of her children alone for a long time. She was even exposed as a suspect by fashion bloggers. Carrying a fake designer bag... Even after being on "Lang Jie", I didn't get any reputation.

Therefore, when Yang Zi showed an appearance that shocked the audience on the show, Huang Shengyi looked like he had been unable to resist for a long time, but he successfully reversed the public reputation for himself and gained a lot of pity. As a result, before this pity was stable, it was shattered by her own attitude of changing her mind and not wanting to divorce. Shen Yifei, a guest in the observation room, said: "Yang Zi and Huang Shengyi are just child's play."

If the female star's 17-year humiliating marriage makes the audience feel like they are watching a show, then the program is closer to the real status quo and problems in ordinary people's marriages, which is the source of suffocation. It seems to be the least problematic. Singer Li Xingliang and stay-at-home wife Mai Lin have become the most difficult couple to reconcile.

For those who are familiar with Li Xingliang and Mai Lin, the appearance of the two in this variety show is puzzling. They know each other through work and are free. After falling in love and getting married, in the eyes of outsiders they were a happy family with two children. They also behaved this way at the beginning of the show. They knew each other well. Li Xingliang said that because of their personalities, they would not have major conflicts and disputes on the show.

The first big conflict between the two people broke out when they were taking a divorce photo. The idea of ​​this photo pointed to a major conflict in their lives, and behind it was the imbalance in the relationship between husband and wife that had been going on for many years. Li Xingliang saw Mai Lin. He is too frugal about household expenses and has a strong desire to control. He said that the refrigerator in his home was discarded by a friend, the furniture was second-hand discarded by the landlord, and the trash can was a used paint bucket... This wave of sharing confused many people: the music industry. Is it so depressed?

Li Xingliang said that Mai Lin was very controlling

After revealing the emotional experience of Li Xingliang and Mai Lin, the public understood Mai Lin's frugality and all-round control over the family, but was still inspired by her from time to time. The mood was "suffocating". As the two frequently became hot searches, some people expressed their great incomprehension towards Mai Lin, thinking that she lived an ideal life for many women, without the constraints of parents-in-law, having a house, a car and children. Li Xingliang not only She publicly showed affection and even tried to make amends and rescue when there were problems in the relationship between the two.

As a housewife, Mai Lin’s hard work and dedication are obvious to all, but her demands and needs seem illusory. Her desire for security does not only come from. It comes from money and material things, but also from whether marriage and family are all under one's control. Guest Huang Zhizhong said when analyzing Mai Lin's saving habits: "Thrift is a controlling virtue. "This also points out the potential reasons behind this habit.

Li Xingliang complained that Mai Lin was too frugal

Among the three couples, Li Xingliang and Mai Lin, who had never checked the divorce option, became netizens' speculation about divorce. A pair with a high rate of success. The indescribable problems that permeate their daily lives are problems that exist in many ordinary people's marriages. The suffocation and stinging also come from real empathy. After all, there are hundreds of millions of teapots in the house. It is not easy to substitute for the life of a child, but there will always be days when people often fight over wardrobe space and suffer heavy losses due to frugality.

At the same time, Liu Shuang and Ge Xi, the audience members of the show, are the other two in many people's minds. A pair of people who deserve a divorce. Liu Shuang, who seems to be arrogant to Mr. Yang, is actually just looking at others sober, but when it comes to himself, he is in a mess. Not only does he have an extremely decadent view of marriage, but he also Because of his extreme confidence in his ability to manage money, he lost the dowry given to Ge Xi by his mother-in-law.

Ge Xi said that Liu Shuang’s investment failed and he lost the money given by his mother.

In the eyes of many netizens, this was already part of the marriage. A matter of principle, But what was more serious was deception. After the investment failed, his first reaction was to "use deception to get through." After the incident was exposed, he was so desperate for face that he didn't even make a phone call after his mother-in-law contracted herpes zoster. Instead of showing concern, he gave Ge Xi the "comfort" that "this disease will be cured with just one shot."

Essentially, Liu Shuang and Yang Zi are the same husbands. They don’t know what love is, they don’t understand the basic demands of women, they evade marriage and family responsibilities, but they hope that their wives will choose to forgive again and again in their performances, and then just make do with it. Saying "grow old together", because who doesn't live like this?

"Goodbye Lover" has been quite popular since the first season. On the one hand, the source of the popularity is the collective emotional empathy caused by three couples with different professions, experiences and different emotional problems. On the other hand, the guests of the observation group use different perspectives. By analyzing and interpreting the three couples, the audience can find an antidote to their emotional distress while immersing themselves in the variety show.

"Goodbye Lover 4" is still being aired, and many viewers still have fresh memories of past seasons. For example, when you see the suffocation between Li Xingliang and Mai Lin, you will think of Song Ningfeng and Zhang Wanting in the second season. Crazy tearing; in the face of Yang Zi's PUA-like emotional model, the invisible mental torture between Wang Sleepy and Zhang Shuo in the third season will reappear in due course; Liu Shuang and Ge Xi will remind people of Ji Huanbo and Wang Shiqing ... At a time when different types of variety shows are appearing frequently, the audience seems to have reached a certain consensus that variety shows have scripts. However, the effects achieved by each season of "Goodbye Lover" show that in real and complex life, scripts are I can’t write it.

For example, Song Ningfeng and Zhang Wanting, who were the most vocal about divorce in the second season, were still in a sweet but noisy marriage. Zhang Wanting later gave birth to a second child; while many people thought that Fu Seoul and Lao Liu, who would not divorce in the end, were still together. They happily ended their marriage despite having a baby. Lao Liu and Zhang Shuo also became "cohabiting close friends" because they appeared on a show together, and they appeared together on a talk show that Fu Seoul participated in. They couldn't help but sigh that a divorce variety show still has such a Extra chapter.

Fu Seoul and Lao Liu

Qian Zhongshu described "marriage as a besieged city", accurately describing the mystery and closedness of marriage. For those who have not entered the besieged city, the life inside is mysterious and unknown; for those who are already in the besieged city, Many problems in life are unsolvable. The "Goodbye Lover" series allows more people to see the secrets in the besieged city of marriage, allowing people outside the besieged city to have a reference before making choices, and people in the besieged city to have answers when they face difficulties.

We can capture the subtleties of human nature in the program, see through the absolute differences and irreconcilable contradictions between men and women, feel the importance of communication, and constantly learn the true face of "love", just like "Goodbye Lover 4" slogan: There is no smooth road on the road to true love.

In this season's program, there is a section where three families watch the Big Dipper together. The self-centered Yang Zi sees the stars in the night sky. While popularizing the science that such scenery cannot be seen in the city, he mobilizes everyone around him to see it. The other two couples both agreed to his "invitation". Only his wife Huang Shengyi said that she had seen a similar starry sky at a certain event, but Yang Zi refused. In the end, Huang Shengyi had to compromise and was dragged to see Yang Zi. A place for stars, echoing the fact that the stars do shine tonight.

At such a moment, Mai Lin suddenly felt fear in her heart. She felt that she saw her daily self in Yang Zi. She had forced her husband to look so "hateful", and she had In the observation room, papi Jiang said, "Yang Zi is such a good mirror."

"Goodbye Lover" has the same "effect" as Yang Zi. It is like a multi-prism, reflecting countless couples' problems in the problems of twelve couples. While presenting people in different marriage lives, it also Radiation reaches people who perhaps have not yet entered the siege.

In the observation room, Papi Jiang said, "Yang Zi is really a good mirror."

Whether a variety show has a script, or what form the script is composed and presented in, is no longer that important to the audience who are following the "Goodbye Lover" series. . Have the people who deserve divorce the most ever been divorced? Can we live together forever after solving the problem? Can people who are not divorced for the time being finally make it to the end? This is not the core issue that the audience cares about. How do we learn to love, how to face the complexity of real life, and how to deal with the relationship with others and ourselves in this complexity is the most important thing.

At least, in the new season of "Goodbye Lover", we have seen the PK between "Knowing Kings", understood that frugality seems to be a virtue, but there are deep character reasons behind it, and realized the common property of husband and wife and the relationship between husband and wife before and after marriage. Regarding the ownership of personal property, as well as investment and financial management, you need to find real professionals to avoid falling into traps.
