costume TV series "Sichuan Brocade" and the recently launched " Pearl Curtain and Jade Curtain " both follow the line of "self-reliance and self-reliance as a heroine". Both dramas integrate elements such as culture, business war, intrigue and love. However, the heroine’s status is The difference is that Duanwu, the heroine of "Pearl Curtain and Jade Curtain", is a bead slave who has been tortured since she was a child, while Ji Yingying, the heroine of "Sichuan Brocade Family", is a wealthy lady who comes from a brocade weaving family. Because the rich and powerful covet her, her family Falling in the middle of the road, and finally counterattacking and rising through one's own efforts.
In the first episode of the series, the Ji family once had great glory. Her father Ji Guinan successfully developed the most colorful red Sichuan brocade, and was jealous of it. The ruthless Liu Jinguan falsely accused Ji Guinan of adulterating inferior goods, and was full of suspicion. Ji Guinan, who was aggrieved, was determined to report to Assassin and find out the truth, but before that day came, his throat was cut and died on the spot by the transport supervisor.
A despicable villain imposed unwarranted charges on Ji Guinan. Unfortunately, Ji's family was ransacked. Ji Guinan's daughters, Ji Yingying and Yang Jinglan, witnessed the grieving and bloody scene. What was even more unexpected was that the villain ransacked the house until the end, even the relic Ji Guinan left for his daughter - Shu red brocade clothes. Angry and sad, Ji Yingying wanted to rush forward to snatch it, but was stopped by her mother. Her mother cried out that "life is the most important thing." The family cried together, and Ji Yingying had a psychological shadow from then on.
In the following plot, a troubled family takes up residence in a dilapidated shelter. Faced with a creditor who covets the secret recipe of Shu red silk and is viciously pressing for debt, Ji Yingying's mother fights with death. , this deeply touched Ji Yingying, and she vowed from the bottom of her heart to turn things over and revive the family. In a dangerous living environment, she fought against evildoers, creditors, and Fangfei. Through unremitting efforts, she not only possessed excellent dyeing skills, but also relied on her unique dyeing skills. The technique became famous in Shu.
In the face of coercion from all forces, Ji Yingying bravely supported the entire family, risked her own life, and took on the heavy responsibility of protecting the craftsmen.
Many people think that the opening plot of "Sichuan Brocade" is cliche. The heroine is in trouble at the beginning. She once had no worries about food and clothing, but she has nothing, and finally makes a comeback. This is almost the same in many dramas with female protagonists.
Some viewers said that the quality of "Sichuan Brocade Family" is very average. The costumes and backgrounds of the entire drama are full of cheapness. The plot has no novelty, childish and boring routines, no freshness, too many awkward places to laugh, and a hard-core comedy. The effects sequence is really not funny at all. The male protagonist is originally quite good-looking, but his makeup is so ridiculous that I really can’t bear to look at it. The female protagonist has many similar characters, and she’s a little tired of it.
I think that the drama is indeed full of loopholes as netizens said, but it has many bright spots. One of the plot highlights of "Shu Brocade Family" is the theme of the intangible cultural heritage Shu Brocade and traditional crafts.
The background of the story is set in the late Tang Dynasty. The hand-weaving technique of Shu brocade has a history of two thousand years. In ancient times, it was regarded as a luxury item, and the production process was extremely complicated.
"Shu Brocade", as the first costume drama with the theme of Shu brocade, shows the audience a glorious picture of the integration of intangible cultural heritage and commerce. In the play, the competitive relationship and struggle stories between Ji Yingying and several major business families vividly display the glory of Shu brocade handicraft industry in a deeper level, allowing the audience to deeply feel the unyielding spirit of Chinese craftsmen in inheriting and protecting ancient crafts. spirit, as well as the important position Shu Brocade occupies in the commercial and economic development of ancient society.
The second highlight is the makeup of Tan Songyun and the performance of the heroine. Tan Songling, who plays Ji Yingying, performed well in "You Are More Beautiful than Starlight", which she collaborated with Xu Kai, and was very popular with the audience.
In addition, her costume styling in "Under the Jinyi" and "心如玉" has also received high praise, and her strength has been recognized by the audience.
In this performance of "Sichuan Brocade", Tan Songyun wore Tang Dynasty costumes of different colors. She was beautiful and elegant. With her sweet smile, fans praised: "Why are you getting younger and younger? She is so beautiful!" She plays the heroine Ji Yingying. Although there are some parts that are artificial, overall, she still fully expresses the heroine's mentality of working hard, strong and unyielding character, and shrewd and shrewd style.
In addition to the struggle between the heroine Ji Yingying and the powerful, the vigorous development of the Shu brocade career is watchable, the emotional entanglement between Ji Yingying and the three male characters is the third highlight.
Her intricate relationship with the male protagonist Yang Jinglan played by Zheng Yecheng, her childhood sweetheart Zhao Xiuyuan, a wealthy brocade weaver, and the white king of Nanzhao Sheng Fengze is full of intertwining interests and sincerity.
Yang Jinglan is by her side, showing true love. Zhao Xiuyuan is under pressure and becomes a black man. Fengze, the white king of Nanzhao, is moved by his true feelings, but cannot fall in love. The story of the heroine's emotional development also makes the audience unable to stop watching the drama.
Generally speaking, "Shu Brocade Family" is a business drama about ancient Chinese Shu brocade handicraft industry. Zhou Jing, general manager of Alibaba Entertainment's Kumi Studio and chief producer of "Sichuan Brocade Family", once said that although the show uses Shu brocade weaving skills as its focus, the narrative technique of the series does not deliberately pursue a grand narrative, but focuses more on it. A lot of emphasis is placed on the depiction of emotions between characters and characters, using the strong emotions between characters to attract the audience.
When watching the drama, you will find that in addition to the popular heroine's level-up and love story, in "Sichuan Brocade Family", you can also see the people surrounding Ji Yingying, in Ji's family, in Feihua Club, and in the group of girlfriends. A group drama of cooperation and growth among various characters.
Through Ji Yingying’s entrepreneurial story, the play presents the infinite charm of Shu brocade, an intangible cultural heritage. The plot reproduces the ancient Shu brocade and brocade weaving techniques two thousand years ago, from reeling, dyeing, brocade weaving to clothing making, the whole process. From style and layout, color matching, pattern design to craft production. Li Ziqi, a celebrity on traditional skills and culture, once said that traditional culture is like an old man who is dying. They are eager to find value in an era when they are less needed.
I hope that "Sichuan Brocade" can become a bridge between modern society and traditional culture, inspire more audiences to get closer to and love traditional culture, and make China's excellent traditional culture live on and last forever.
