"Hansawa Naoki": Value Expression and Emotional Consolation of Unconventional Workplace Drama

Original title: The value expression and emotional comfort of unconventional workplace dramas



Due to the unique performance, the ups and downs of narrative events, and the passionate idealistic words of Naoki 2 . In addition to bringing audiovisual pleasure, the series also illuminates the night like flames and lights, guides the future, and brings a certain spiritual boost and emotional comfort to people in difficult situations in reality.


   Unconventional workplace drama: Kabuki performance is stunningly integrated into


   From the genre point of view, the series of "Naoki Bansawa" is a typical financial workplace drama. However, compared with Japanese workplace dramas such as "The Character of Dispatcher", "How about the Loose Generation", "The Woman Who Sells a House", and "News Girl", the series is unique due to its unique kabuki performance method.


  As the world's intangible cultural heritage, the Kabuki performance has had a profound impact on Japanese artistic creation and is deeply loved by the Japanese people. His acting styles are mainly embodied in the three styles of "famine", "harmony" and "doing". Among them, the performance of "famine" is exaggerated and the language is crude. The protagonist often insists on justice and is not afraid of violence. This kind of performance was cleverly integrated into the creation of "Hansawa Naoki", which produced an amazing effect.


  In the previous two seasons, many famous Japanese Kabuki actors, such as Kagawa Teruyuki, Ichikawa Sarunosuke, and Oka Ainosuke, were used, and they became the focus of the topic. For example, in the tenth episode of the first season, Director Owada's actor Kagawa Teruyuki contributed a very wonderful "Yan Yi" performance: Under the pressure of Hansawa Naoki, Owada knelt on his knees, clenched his teeth and flushed his face. , The expression is complicated; in the second season, Owada has become more proficient in performing in the contest with Naoki Hansawa. Similarly, Izayama played by Ichikawa Sarunosuke, Kurosaki played by Oka Ainosuke, etc., also fully displayed the "face art" of Kabuki.


  As a non-Kabuki actor, Sakai Masato did not show any weakness, and after "The Winner is Justice", he has superb acting skills. In every scene of the angry director Owada, director Nagata, Representative Minobe, lawyer Nohara, executive Noimoto and others, his rich expressions, frustrated voice, and powerful movements are impressive.



  Value expression: professionalism and individual dignity


   An excellent TV series must not only perform wonderfully, be enjoyable, but also be ideological, philosophical, and convey value. In this regard, the values ​​conveyed by the "Hansawa Naoki" series deserve recognition. The professional spirit of


   can be said to be the soul of the series and the inheritance of the spirit of Japanese craftsmen. Specifically, professionalism refers to recognition, love, loyalty, service to the profession, and continuous training and improvement of professional quality at work, and shouldering professional responsibilities. This is in line with the spirit of Japanese craftsmen who love their craft and pursue excellence. The play has better conveyed positive professional values ​​by shaping the image of professionals in different industries such as Naoki Hansawa, Token Nakano, President Sena, President Goda, etc.


  Naoki Hansawa highly recognizes the value, strength and responsibility of banks, and puts into work with the professionalism of "customer first". When reality violates his professionalism, he is not following the trend, not only caring about personal interests, but fighting reality at all costs. Therefore, his original intention of rebelling against his superiors and rejecting officials was to defend his professionalism that he believed in and recognized. Similarly, Nakano Token, President Sena, President Gota, etc., although in deep trouble, still adhere to the professional philosophy of "customer first" and the concept of "employee first" responsibility.


  While spreading professionalism, this series also incorporates modern concepts of respecting and defending individual dignity, keeping the two in a balance. In Japanese professional culture, individuals are often in a state of concealment. In the context of the industrial revolution and technological revolution, human beings are alienated into production tools and are in a state of numbness. One of the reasons why the original author of the novel created "Naoki Bansawa" was to think deeply about self-worth and the meaning of work. Based on this, the series also incorporates thinking about individual dignity and self-worth.


  In the huge financial system, employees are not silent unknown persons. The new staff represented by Naoki Hansawa knows the unspoken rules but actively resists, is framed but refuses to be sentimental and evasive. While recognizing the value and responsibility of banks, companies, and governments, they also recognize the value of individuals And responsibility. When Minister Shirai "You are a negligible bank clerk" denied, he retorted righteously, "Since I am an office worker, my duty is to be a screw and listen to the leader's instructions. . But I also have the self-esteem as a screw. If someone looks down on this self-esteem but can still occupy the position of the team leader, then I think this is a misfortune for the country. Strength, I will do my best." This is undoubtedly a high degree of recognition of individual value.



  Emotional comfort: Anxiety release and identity


  TV series are emotional art that needs to penetrate the hearts of the audience. Judging from the audience's reaction, the "Hansawa Naoki" series is remarkable in this respect.


  On the one hand, it is like a pot of spirits poured into people's hearts, releasing long-depressed anxiety. In a highly competitive workplace, employees are burdened with professional pressures, work anxiety, and are often trapped in complex personnel relationships and helpless unspoken rules, just like trapped beasts, physically and mentally exhausted. The Hansawa Naoki portrayed in the series has not only a tragic experience, but also extraordinary courage, courage and wisdom. As a result, the audience imagines that they are Naoki Hansawa and empathizes. While chasing the drama, he became the protagonist. In the ups and downs of the plot, he went through all the difficulties and won a big victory. On the other hand, it is like a hymn to evoke the identity of the staff. The audience not only got the pleasure of watching the drama in the plots of Naoki Hansawa angering the boss and exposing officials, but also saw the affirmation of their own profession and the realization of value.


  In short, the "Hansawa Naoki" series is a workplace drama that successfully combines traditional Japanese Kabuki culture, artisan culture and modern self-worth. Stones from other hills, can learn. The success of "Hansawa Naoki" series is undoubtedly worthy of reference for my country's film and television industry.
