2023, "One Thought Guanshan" triggered heated discussions about "epileptic drama".
2024, "The Boy Who Mings the Dragon" was commented by netizens as "the most popular movie of the year".
The fate of this drama's reputation is the same as that of the five little ones in the drama's boyhood. It seems to have taken twists and turns in the script. It started with a low popularity as an unexpected theme of the college entrance examination, but it has counterattacked with its content and become a stealth hit that coexists with popularity and reputation. payment.
At the last moment, it suddenly took a sudden turn, and it was said that it was the "first seizure of the year".
The combined word-of-mouth trend of other new dramas in the same period is probably not as complicated as that of "The Young Man Who Calls the Dragon". Regarding the final judgment of "epileptic drama", most of the discussions among netizens are considered "reasonable and well-founded".
The "epilepsy" of "The Young Man Who Mings the Dragon" mainly revolves around three key points.
htmlThe ending 412 years later is the most "creative" audience
The early plot of "The Boy Who Ming Dragon" did not reveal love, but the screenwriter arranged three very clear emotional foreshadowings for the five children. Jiang Qinglang has a crush on Cheng Yushan, Li Ran has a two-way crush on Cheng Yushan, and Jiang Qinglang has a crush on Cheng Yushan. Qinglang and Bian Xiaoxiao complement each other and love each other.
After the college entrance examination, Li Ran and Cheng Yushan, who had a crush on each other, arranged a confession and an "official announcement" of couple costumes.
However, when they reunited 12 years later, the beautiful youthful CP fell into chaos. The two little suns Bian Xiaoxiao and Jiang Qinglang came together, but they did not fall in love with each other and became divorced CP.
Cheng Yushan, who was originally in love with Li Ran, has already broken up. What is even more surprising is that Cheng Yushan and Shen Yao appeared in new "couple costumes". Many details in the play hinted that the two were husband and wife or a couple.
The cp-eating audience was inspired by this reversal and called the screenwriter too crazy. Audiences who are not addicted to CP are also confused. Is this a healing and inspirational story forcibly sprinkled with arsenic?
According to realistic logic, it is not uncommon for classmates or alumni to have censorship disputes 12 years after graduation. The story of going from campus to marriage is inherently difficult, otherwise first love will not always coexist with beauty and be.
But the arrangement of the emotional line in "The Boy Who Calls the Dragon" is like suddenly adding the real life of a princess and a prince after marriage to a fairy tale. is not illogical, but it is really unnecessary.
Because is too terrible.
When viewers watch a chocolate advertisement, they want to see the model express the sweetness and bitterness of the chocolate, and the silky enjoyment in the taste, but they certainly don’t want to see what kind of excrement the model will excrete after eating the chocolate.
Doubts about the logic of the college entrance examination have reached their peak
Audiences who pursue logic have suspected that the screenwriter has not experienced the college entrance examination after watching "The Boy Who Calls the Dragon". Many viewers foresaw that the Five Primary Schools would only achieve counterattacks by poor students, but they did not expect that their counterattack would be successful. So exaggerated.
Before they entered Class 11, they were all at the bottom of their grade, with starting scores of 300-400. The school judged them to be out of luck for undergraduate studies, and they once wanted to suggest that these students set their sights on training in technical schools. During the second model period of
, only the scores of the five students passed the 500 mark. When it came to the college entrance examination, all members except Jiang Qinglang, who gave up the exam, entered the college entrance examination. From the starting point to the end, it takes one year, and from lingering on the undergraduate level to returning to the undergraduate level, it takes about 3 months.
When any teacher in any school sees this teaching result, he may call him a good guy.
"The Singing Dragon Boy" The principal and other teachers seemed very anxious when they saw the results of Class 11. Even if the college entrance examination was approaching, they still had to implement the little bee teaching method in the whole school and let the students go to class together, which was... very bold.
The approach to the college entrance examination suddenly disrupts the methods that all students have been accustomed to for many years. Is it really reliable? In one year, they succeeded in allowing the bottom students to counterattack and advance to Qingbei. Does that mean that after finding a learning method, they can sprint again in the last year?
lacks the logic of the actual college entrance examination and the overly exaggerated transformation is also the key to the audience's doubts about "epiasis".
In fact, in the early days of "The Young Man Who Called the Dragon", the show was involved in the controversy of "both real and suspended". Some viewers felt that the issues discussed in the show such as college entrance examination, dreams, reality, and original family were very real and had a strong sense of empathy.
Some viewers also think that the setting of a poor student who counterattacks Qingbei in one year is too suspended.
Regarding this controversy, Qihuan once published an article to discuss it. My personal opinion is that film and television works need to resonate with reality, and at the same time, they also need dramatic tension to give the audience audio-visual enjoyment.
If it is too suspended, the story will be lost, but blindly demanding authenticity is also undesirable. , no matter how real the drama is, it will not be as real as the documentary, but the audience's demands for documentaries and dramas are different.
In this regard, the concept of "underachievement counterattack" in "The Boy Who Sings the Dragon" very well sets off the passionate atmosphere of the subject at the beginning of the story. The teacher Lei Ming's output of the concept of the fifth primary school student about the Qingbei exam is also quite touching.
The audience may not agree with the feasibility of counterattack from a practical perspective, but they have to recognize the power of belief and action. Just like Lei Ming's interpretation of the results of big data, data is cold and pleasant, and you must believe in your own infinite possibilities.
However, drama is the necessary atmosphere of "The Boy Who Calls the Dragon", and its feasibility should also be considered.
The logic of the college entrance examination in "The Young Man Who Mings the Dragon" has gradually been questioned and even complained about as "crazy". It is not the selling point of "a counterattack by poor students", but the results and methods of the counterattack, which are handled in an overly idealistic manner.
’s efforts were held up high but invisible and despised.
After the successful formation of Class 11, the first scene that made the audience’s scalp tingle and feel passionate was none other than Lei Ming leading the five children to study the current situation of the school classroom, and the relationship between the top class and the students. The comparison between scumbags is striking.
The biggest intuitive difference between the top students’ class and the bad students’ class is the word “effort”.
What makes a top student stand out may be genius. The difference between multiple classes is more about hard work, self-control ability in time management, motivation to learn knowledge and persistence towards goals. These make them different from others.
From here, the story sets a tone. Poor students counterattack. Although talent is the key, hard work is a prerequisite. Lei Ming's early education also makes students realize why they should study and why they should study hard.
This was originally a very passionate basis for the story, but when "hard work" spreads from Class 11 to the whole school, there will always be a perception that "hard work is not respected" in the audience, such as the comparison between Li Ran and Shen Yao.
Another example is the controversial Wings program.
At the beginning, Lei Ming explained that the plan to add wings is to add a pair of wings to talents with partial subjects. If a single subject is outstanding, you can reap the benefits of being admitted to Qingbei University by 30 points, which is very suitable for geniuses in partial subjects Li Ran and Cheng Yushan.
But during the second interview, Li Ran, whose self-esteem was stimulated again, denounced Tianyi Plan for favoring "good students", while Lei Ming used words about the gap between rich and poor, and comprehensive strength to win back the interviewer's heart...
The conceptual change before and after, directly Stun the audience. Is the Wings-Advancing Plan a genius plan or a poverty alleviation plan? If it's the former, just focus on the potential of a single subject. If it's the latter, why is Shen Yao also among the candidates?
included Shen Yao, a rich second-generation academic, among the candidates, but he helped Li Ran get a spot by "selling out". What he got for Li Ran was not fairness, but a disguised "injustice." .
Lei Ming’s words to fight for a quota are similar to Father Shen’s words to fight for a quota.
One uses "poverty" as an advantage, and just because the opponent is a rich second generation, it denies his years of hard work; the other uses "birth" as an advantage, because the opponent is a poor student, which denies the opponent's potential. Of the two concepts
, which one is truly fair?
To fight for this opportunity for Li Ran, we should focus on his individual subject potential, learning explosiveness and attitude, rather than doing the hard work for him. Nuochun made the final decision based on his background. The final interpretation of the Tianyi Plan should be poverty alleviation rather than individual division.
The reason for this deviation is most likely because the screenwriter did not integrate the drama conflict and setting logic carefully enough. He wanted to highlight Shen’s father’s arrogant education and Li Ran’s inferiority complex at the same time, sacrificing the fairness of the Tianyi Plan itself.
In other words, sacrifices respect for "effort".
Shen Yao's character has many problems. His father is even more abnormal and arrogant, full of disgusting privilege, but criticizing these things should not be presented at the expense of Shen Yao's efforts.
Just like the surreal counterattack of all the poor students in Class 11 will shake the meaning of hard work, people will feel the passion of the poor students' counterattack, look forward to their success, and will be willing to believe that those who choose the right path and work hard will gain something.
But when the results of the counterattack exceed the reasonable range, years of hard work indirectly become a joke. "The Boy Who Screams the Dragon" is slightly unbalanced in its handling of effort and talent, resulting in imperfections upon reflection.
Each of the three shortcomings makes "The Young Man Who Calls the Dragon" linked to "epilepsy". Objectively speaking, Chapter 7 also recognizes the existence of these three flaws, but therefore calls it "the first epilepsy of the year" , actually a bit unfair.
This drama has obvious flaws, including a superfluous ending and problems with details, but more importantly, it is touching and thought-provoking. It is a warm and powerful work that explores many issues very deeply.
Every argument in the play can be discussed in real life, and it even has a sense of power that directly touches people's hearts. It may not change us who have already made our choices, but it can serve as a warning for the education of the next generation.
Moreover, the handling of many issues was not ended in the form of dumplings, but was left to the audience to judge for themselves.
Such as career planning.
In order to make the five young people realize the importance of the college entrance examination, Lei Ming took them to the talent market to experience the importance of career planning, ideals and reality, hobbies and life, giving these young people the most intuitive collision.
Audiences who have chosen majors, subjects, and even have no idea about college entrance examination goals can't help but sigh, "I wish I had seen this paragraph at that time" and "It would be great if we also had career planning courses at that time."
Some young people have their goals early and move forward firmly towards their goals. But in reality, more young people are confused about their future and goals. They need time to find the dream that they are passionate about and willing to go all out for.
When the goal is not clear enough, the college entrance examination is a card that can hold us back. If you get into a good school, you will have more choices no matter what you want to do in the future, and this choice requires young people to put pressure on the present. .
It can be seen from this that Lei Ming is a very realistic person. He realistically understands how important the college entrance examination is to the four students from five small families who are from poor families. If they do not seize this opportunity, they may take many detours in the future.
However, the screenwriter did not deny the importance of ideals because of reality. Through the conflict of views between Lei Ming and Sang Xia, the audience realized that in addition to the importance of college entrance examination, mental health is also a threshold of life.
Lei Ming did not give up his persistence in "the college entrance examination changes his destiny" because of his mental health, and Sangxia did not completely deny Lei Ming's educational philosophy because he paid more attention to mental health. The two were constantly in conflict and running in parallel.
The college entrance examination is very important, and it is equally important to welcome the college entrance examination with a healthy attitude. How to strike a balance between the two? There are no direct answers in the play, but these questions are thrown to parents and students themselves.
Let students understand why they should study, why they should work hard to seize the opportunity of the college entrance examination, and what the college entrance examination will bring. Let parents understand what kind of learning environment their children need and what kind of difficulties and pressures they face.
They will find the final answer together.
Career planning is just one chapter of "The Boy Who Calls the Dragon". This story also has many things that directly hit the pain points of reality and provide the audience with guidance, healing and discussion. These things are as shining as the beliefs conveyed by the story.
cp There is no denying that the chaos and detailed logic problems have affected the core power of the story. But it is also a pity to regard it as an epileptic drama because of its flaws.
Comprehensive review of the entire drama of "The Young Man Who Calls the Dragon", it is still a warm work. I hope that the film and television industry will be more careful when polishing the story and stop using 10% of mistakes to ruin 90% of the charm.
