The plot of this play reflects the cruel reality and complex human nature, which is very infectious. The actor's acting skills and face value are also online all the time, and the old players are very enjoyable.
Of all the characters, I only sympathize with Qi Tongwei and Gao.
They are typical representatives of small people who counterattack and break through class boundaries, and they are also typical cases of breaking through the road of failure and self-destruction.
China is a circle society and a human society. Most people only associate with people who are equivalent to themselves. If it is slightly unequal, it is not a friend.
So friends of grocery store owners sell breakfast, develop galleries and sell vegetables. I talk about my parents' short family life and indifference every day. The friends of the big boss are all big companies and enterprises. They pursue enjoying resources and creating wealth. The writer's friends are mostly poets, painters and calligraphers, and they talk about art together every day, which is lofty and extraordinary.
Once the stratum is formed, it is difficult to make a breakthrough in the next three generations unless there is a particularly big turn for the better.
Praying for blessings is equally great and is a typical example of actively breaking through the class.
He rose from a rootless nobody to a powerful director of the public security department.
Being born in poverty, he didn't have enough to eat at school. Even if you graduate from the political science and law department of a famous university, you can't find a good future for yourself without the natural career booster of class.
After graduating from college, he was assigned to a remote township judicial office, euphemistically called "exercise". This so-called exercise is actually the result of collusion between Liang Lu, secretary of the Communist Youth League Committee of the University, and his father, then secretary of the Provincial Political and Legal Committee. It is not an exaggeration to say that he retaliated.
He volunteered to go to the front line of drug control and risked his life just to change his destiny. However, even if he was shot three times and his life hung by a thread, he could not achieve a class jump. He is still just a nobody at the bottom, fighting for life.
As you can imagine, how many dark nights, why sleepless nights, racking their brains to change this situation. He took out what he had in his heart and examined it one by one. Finally, he painfully found that his greatest and only magic weapon was Liang Lu's love for him.
It is hard to imagine how he gritted his teeth and made up his mind. He went to the university playground to propose to Liang Lu. This kind of kneeling has abandoned true love, self and dignity, and ushered in power and prestige.
"Kneeling" is the core action of his class breakthrough.
Ambitious, did he have any other choice at that time? Not at all!
He successfully broke through the circle and class boundaries, and went to running all the way in pursuit of power and money. He is bent on "winning the day and half a son" and can't restrain his greedy desire. The ups and downs along the way have already distorted his heart.
He climbed to the top of the public security bureau as he wished, and even began to covet the official hat of the vice governor. However, the careful audience saw that on the mobile phone of Zhao Ruilong, a black-hearted businessman in the Red Dynasty, Qi Tongwei's caller ID was "Qi Donkey", which is the most real situation of Director Qi. Even if he gave it all, he would end up just an apple polisher and a donkey of a huge interest group.
This is doomed, in the class he finally climbed into, he is still lonely and helpless. Even Gao, the teacher who was in the same boat with him politically, a talented and hypocritical politician, saw through his point of no return and cut off contacts with him early.
Director Qi finally had no choice but to wait for death.
The tide has ebbed. At the lakeside villa, Qi Tongwei and his lover looked at each other with tears in their eyes and embraced each other affectionately. They not only collude with the interests of abusing power for personal gain, but also have brotherhood along the way, and even more have attachment and affection between heroes and beautiful women. How many viewers turned from hatred to sympathy for Qi Tongwei in this drama, and how many viewers shed tears for their sadistic love for doomed love.
I always thought that the suicide scene in Lone Eagle Ridge was the climax of the whole play. Qi Tongwei shouted at Hou Liangping who surrendered: "Monkey Brother, you and I have settled our grievances ... no one can judge me, fuck God". A gunshot, the soul returns to the sky.
Director Qi has done many earth-shattering things. The jaw-dropping kneeling posture on the university playground is interpreted as burying the soul. When accompanying the leaders to mourn their loved ones, crying in front of the grave is interpreted as flattery to the extreme; There is one last shot, but how to interpret it?
I interpret this as complete despair after the failure of class breakthrough.
High, high and low are typical of passive breakthrough.
Boarding the island in the middle of Beida Lake, these two peasant girls, who didn't even have a pair of shoes, joined Zhao Ruilong's Huilong Group as hostess, and were bound to their own life track in the destruction of fate.
Gao is just a puppet who seeks benefits for Qi Tongwei and Zhao's father and son. She fell in love with Qi Tongwei, and she sat on the wheel of this fate. It seems that the scenery is infinite, but it is full of fatal risks.
The more desperate, the more dangerous.
Since ancient times, in the transaction of power and money, there has been an indispensable regulatory role for beautiful women. This beautiful woman was not so much shaped as a female entrepreneur who studied both inside and outside by the long years, but rather played by Zhao Ruilong and Qi Tongwei, and was forced to become a versatile Beijing Aqingsao.
Gao is a real chess piece. Without her, there would be no Li He. On the stage of Shanshui Manor, she has a unique advantage, beautiful, intelligent, affectionate and considerate. She dabbled in politics and business, high officials and dignitaries, and painstakingly managed ugly transactions under false prosperity.
Gao was so kind that when Zhao Ruilong and Qi Tongwei hosted a banquet in Shanshui Manor to take Hou Liangping's life, they both offered not to let her know, for fear that she might miss something.
The direction her fate points to may not be the direction she really wants to go. All she wants is true feelings and a real home.
In addition, Gao Xiaofeng, Zhao Ruilong and Qi Tongwei also carefully packaged her as a gift to Gao Guangao for Gao Yu, who was in power at that time. The simple encounter between Gao Xiaofeng and a romantic politician seems to be a romantic encounter of talented people and beautiful women, but it is actually the most unbearable power and money transaction. And the so-called love with Lao Gao in her eyes is also a helpless choice for her.
She is far away in Hong Kong, taking care of her children and her sister's children, and living alone in an empty boudoir day after day. Even if she is rich, she can't hide her spiritual emptiness and boredom. If she had to choose again, would she still choose this life? And fate itself, how can you give her a chance to choose?
So the fate of these two women is beyond their control. They seem to have broken through the class, jumped from peasant women to ladies and lived a life of food and clothing. In fact, they have been immersed in a sense of powerlessness that they can't control their destiny, and they are essentially just drifting with the tide.
Finally, the director committed suicide by swallowing a gun, and Gao and Xiao were arrested and imprisoned. Their villain counterattack was once smooth, but in the end it was doomed.
Whether it is an active breakthrough or a passive breakthrough, the solidification and formation of the stratum is not so easy.
In addition to these two typical cases, there are other typical cases about class breakthrough in the play.
Zheng Shengli, the son of Zheng Xipo, chairman of Dafeng Factory's trade union, is a typical example that is limited by class boundaries and difficult to achieve.
His mother pushed a tricycle and sold it ten years ago, saving 200 thousand for her son's marriage. This plot is the truest portrayal of a whole class-ordinary people without resources can only do hard work.
Although his father is the trade union chairman of Dafeng Factory, he has worked hard all his life and has not accumulated anything. The only hope is that the equity in his factory can be realized with some money.
Zheng Shengli changed his name to politics, which means making money. He ran on the runway of fate, looking for opportunities everywhere. However, in his class, there are no natural resources suitable for him at all.
He is realistic, cunning and likes to be clever. He has neither great ability nor lofty mission. As long as he is alive and has some money, he feels good.
His knowledge, insight and courage are all his breakthroughs in class restriction. He is the representative of most people in reality. Many viewers are disdainful of this man. As everyone knows, there are many such people around us, even ourselves.
Chen Yan, he represents the formation process of some classes.
The 15-year-old boy who went to the front with explosives experienced the baptism of war and retired from the position of deputy procurator-general of the provincial procuratorate in peacetime. The breakthrough and formation of his class was created by history and politics under the fate of the country and the fate of the characters.
He is a man who has no desire or desire, and his only pursuit is dedication. This is a very idealistic figure, and only a very noble and selfless heart can support such a life trajectory.
After the founding of People's Republic of China (PRC), a high-ranking politician class was formed. Later, the red generation was born with the aura and political resources of the previous generation, such as Chen Hai and Liang Lu in the play.
After the 1980s, the tide of reform created many successful children who went to sea, and also laid the foundation for the rich class and the later rich second generation, such as Wang Dalu and others.
Of course, Gao, Sha Ruijin, Tian and Yi Xue all have their own classes. Even secretaries with briefcases and teacups have their own classes and trajectories.
So this drama seems to be about officialdom struggle, political reality and anti-corruption. In fact, it is nothing more than a problem of circles, class and class.
In one class, wanting something from another class means measuring and comparing, giving up and dodging, planning and disobedience, and fighting and struggling.
It formed fate.
