Why is the TV series Myth a disappointing work?

One: The theme of the TV series Myth is not properly expressed, which leads to the unclear and incorrect theme.

The original intention of the production team of this drama should be to show beautiful, sad and tireless love, and the plot setting also closely revolves around the theme of love. There are many love scenes in the play, all to set off the theme.

1, the love between Gao Lan and Nana Ogawa can basically be represented by the slightly ridiculous password "992772". Nana Ogawa is just a prodigal son born in 1980s, a rich second generation. He can't be single-minded about love. To put it bluntly, he is a playboy, and playing with Gao Lan in the bar is the heartbeat. At least, Nana Ogawa treated Gao Lan this way. This kind of love (not even love) is not worth advocating, and this drama has only touched on it slightly, mainly serving the plot.

2. Lv Zhi's love for Nana Ogawa is possessive, but the bridge is still good. You can't let others get what you can't get. This drama has spent a lot of ink on this love, because this morbid love is very consistent with Lv Hou's ruthless character, but it is not worth advocating.

3. Lu Su's love for Nana Ogawa is a highlight of this play. It is Lv Suchun's love for Nana Ogawa that changed the character of Nana Ogawa prodigal son, and also made Nana Ogawa understand what true love is, and realized that the highest state of love is sacrifice, and he can sacrifice everything for the person he loves. This affection is not much, but it is also the finishing touch. This arrangement provides a reasonable explanation for Nana Ogawa to change from a playboy to a man who loves him the most. 4. Abortion's love, Li You's love for abortion, and Meng Tian's and General Jin's love are all wishful thinking, pure, and can make sacrifices for their loved ones without regrets. Such unrequited love is also worthy of respect. 5. As for the relationship between Ying Zheng and Yu Shu, in the standard language of middle school textbooks, it is "showing the profligacy of the feudal ruling class and exposing the evils of the feudal system", which deserves our spurning.

6. Although the love between General Pang and Dexiang is short-lived, it is equally beautiful. Unfortunately, in the face of the war, their love seemed so pale and weak that people burst into tears.

7. The love between Gao Lan and Dachuan, though with simple motives, is immoral. My brother just disappeared, and my brother's girlfriend came together with my brother in less than two months, and even Dachuan's mother was still watching. Even today, when public opinion is quite loose, the love between them is still unacceptable. In fact, this should be the director's mistake, so that our beautiful Gao Lan should bear the blame. I think many people will think that Nana Ogawa said goodbye to Gao Lan on the phone. When Gao Lan happened not to hear it, "the director laid the groundwork for their reunion", but Gao Lan and Nana Ogawa did not get back together until the end. Then why didn't the director just let Gao Lan accept Nana Ogawa's breakup in the first episode, and then he could associate with Nana Ogawa aboveboard and justly? I am a little conservative, but there should be many viewers who share my conservative views. Obviously, the director can use very simple lens language to avoid moral problems, so as to win the conservative audience's recognition of the love between Dachuan and Gaolan. It's much more natural to break up with Nana Ogawa first, and then associate with Nana Ogawa as a mother's match.

8. Wang Xianghe and Yu Ji should be regarded as a happy couple in the play. Although we can't grow old together, it is not easy to accompany them to the end of their lives in those troubled times. The legend of Farewell My Concubine is a household name, which has been interpreted countless times on the stage and screen by later generations and passed down as a much-told story. It can be said that Farewell My Concubine has already had an established and preconceived classic model in people's minds. Here we need to look at the prototype of Farewell My Concubine.

That night, when he heard that the Han army was besieged on all sides, Wang Xiang was shocked and said, "Has the Han army gained Chu?" He Chu has so many people! "Wang Xiang up at night, drink on the account. If you have a beauty, you will always be lucky; Good horses are famous and often ride. Therefore, Wang Xiang is a sorrowful and generous poet, who wrote a poem for himself, saying, "If you pull up a mountain, you will be angry with the world. If it is unfavorable, you will not die. "What can I do if I don't die?" Songs count, beauty and it. Xiang Wang cried several times, but both sides cried, afraid to look up.

-Historical Records-Biography of Xiang Yu

According to legend, at the end of the Chu-Han War, Wang Xiang was trapped, and Sean and Liu Hou fought a Chu Song, dispersing the ten Wan Chu armies. Wang Xiang's army collapsed and only rode an army of 800 men to break through. In order to enable Wang Xiang to break through smoothly, Yu Ji committed suicide in his account, thus avoiding Wang Xiang's scruples. The epic love story between Yu Ji and Wang Ba has been handed down (Yu Ji's suicide account should be compiled by later generations, but there are only 26 riders on the Wujiang River, which is an indisputable fact that Yu Ji is no longer around Wang Xiang). The legendary concubine committed suicide in order that her beloved Wang Xiang could break through smoothly. How great and heroic such a concubine is, and how tragic and beautiful her love with Wang Xiang is. The director of this drama found another way, and arranged for Yu Ji and Wang Xiang to escape to the Wujiang River together, and finally they were shot to death by random arrows. Compared with the classic model, this modification really exaggerates the brotherhood between Gao Yao and Xiao Yue, but it gains and loses. It turns out that in the classic "Farewell My Concubine" mode, the love between Wang Xiang and Yu Ji was sublimated to the extreme because of Yu Ji's suicide in the account, which brought great shock to the hearts of the spectators. Is the image of Yu Ji who fled to the river and was shot by the Han army relatively inferior? The reason why a classic becomes a classic must have its own advantages. I am cautious about revising the classics. For the classic bridge segment with fixed mode, it may not be brilliant, but it will never go wrong. Modifying the classics may be brilliant, but the risk of making mistakes is greater. Whether it is revised or not depends mainly on the director's ability to control the script, otherwise it will only be self-defeating and superfluous.

Finally, let's talk about the love between Nana Ogawa and Yushu, the core of the play.

The director of this play wants to express the beauty, purity and loyalty of love through their love. However, due to improper expression and thoughtless plot setting, the opposite effect has been achieved.

①: There is no love for no reason, and there is no hate for no reason. Nana Ogawa is a typical post-80s playboy, because of Lv Su's love and Lv Su's death. When Nana Ogawa got down on one knee with a ring made of grass flowers in his hand and proposed to Mr.zhou, Nana Ogawa's gratitude to Lu Su sublimated into true love. At that moment, I believed that Ogawa Naina really wanted to "hold hands with Lu Su and grow old with him". After Lu Su's death, Nana Ogawa also felt deeply grieved. But after I met Yu Shu, I immediately fell in love with Yu Shu, and even instantly (for more than a year at most) forgot Lu Su, who just proposed. If Lv Zhi hadn't repeatedly stressed that Nana Ogawa should take good care of Lu Jia, I'm afraid the director had arranged for Nana Ogawa to completely forget the person he once loved. Although the love between Yu Shu and Nana Ogawa can be explained by love at first sight, due to the improper handling of the plot, this kind of love is very abrupt. If the director arranged for Nana Ogawa to fall in love with Yushu, would it be more humane and reasonable to have more inner struggles and more inner repetitions? Otherwise, it is difficult to change Nana Ogawa's image as a playboy in the eyes of the audience, and he is not a playboy that everyone loves.

②: Princess Touran is both the darling of God and the slave of fate. When she agreed to accept the political marriage of Daqin, she shouldered the safety of the motherland. On the way to Xianyang, she met Nana Ogawa and fell in love with Nana Ogawa at that time. When Yu Shu decided to March into Xianyang City, she treasured her love affair with Nana Ogawa as a gift from heaven, and at the same time understood that her marriage with Ying Zheng shouldered the safety of the motherland, while her marriage with Ying Zheng hoped to gain temporary peace with Qiang Qin, at least to win more time for the motherland to resist Qiang Qin. Yu Shu knows that she can't ignore the safety of her motherland because of her affair. Therefore, the image of a heroine who is willing to sacrifice everything for the security of the motherland is impressive. But when she became a beautiful princess, she suddenly forgot her mission and identity, and even had a relationship with Nana Ogawa. If this matter is exposed, not only he and Nana Ogawa will be put to death, but even the maids and eunuchs who serve her and even her motherland will be destroyed immediately. Yu Shu at this time is completely different from the previous image. Before entering the palace, you can sacrifice everything for the motherland; You can sacrifice everything for love after entering the palace. Yu Shu's character setting suddenly changed dramatically, and no reasonable explanation was given in the play, which is another deficiency of the play. Originally, as a young man like Yu Shu, it is normal and understandable for the audience to make some important choices repeatedly. The director of this drama just omitted the necessary psychological description here, and at the same time ignored Yu Shu's psychological transformation process, so that Yu Shu was reviled as "satisfying his own selfish desires and ignoring the safety of others and even the motherland."

(3) Nana Ogawa made the same mistake as Yu Shu in character setting. The screenwriter has always emphasized that Nana Ogawa's benevolence and righteousness come first, saying that Nana Ogawa is unwilling to kill people and will not solve the problem by killing people. Give enough respect to domestic slaves, handmaids and even enemy slaves, and have love for passers-by. However, with the development of the plot, the director made Nana Ogawa put on the cloak of kindness and did many inhuman things. When Yu Shu was in the palace, Cui Wenzi repeatedly reminded Nana Ogawa that it was dangerous to associate with Yu Shu. It is not only the two of them who are in danger, but also a large group of people behind them. Nana Ogawa turned a deaf ear to Cui Wenzi's warning. Isn't this very private and cruel? What qualifications does Nana Ogawa have to let outsiders such as abortion hang the sword of Damocles on his head forever for the sake of his love with Yu Shu? What is the meaning of Nana Ogawa? Is it the same person as Nana Ogawa who is full of justice?

(4) Nana Ogawa rashly rose up to overthrow the Qin Dynasty and rescued Yu Shu who was imprisoned in the underground palace, which was a major mistake in the plot arrangement of this drama.

First of all, there are only two possibilities for the emergence of Nana Ogawa.

The first possibility: Nana Ogawa thinks that no matter how hard he tries, he can't change the original historical process.

Since history is immutable, knowing that Qin will die, and that he died according to the time recorded in history, whether he will arise or not will not affect the outcome. He just needs to sit there and wait quietly for the moment when Qin perishes. Hastily building the army will only expand the war and let more people get involved in it for no reason. Based on this assumption, it is meaningless for Nana Ogawa to start to form an army, which will only bring more disasters to the people.

The second possibility: Nana Ogawa believes that through his efforts, the original course of history can be changed.

Break an old world and build a new one. The fundamental reason why N peasant uprisings failed in the history of China was that they only broke the old world and didn't know how to build a new one. In the end, they all became chess pieces or cannon fodder used by other landlords. No matter how bad the old world is, it also represents an order. When the insurgents beat the original order to pieces, they were either extravagant or expressionless, but they didn't know how to establish a new order, which could only bring more pain and disaster to ordinary people living in this land than in the old world.

At the end of Qin Dynasty, the peasant rebels, represented by Chen Sheng and Guangwu, rebelled against the people in the early days and rose up for survival, which was a just war. However, after the establishment of the Zhang Chu regime, serious corruption occurred at the top. The purpose of their uprising is not so lofty, nor is it anti-imperialist and anti-feudal (don't be fooled by China's traditional textbooks). They wanted to be emperors themselves, so in the middle and late period of the uprising, the purpose of the war became to expand the sphere of influence and satisfy their extravagant demands, and there was no justice at all. The reaction of the Kanto pack was just to get a piece of the action when Daqin fell apart. Therefore, the scuffle at the end of the Qin dynasty was just a power struggle within the feudal landlord class. "The deer lost in the Qin dynasty and the world chased it out." Violence is easy to violence, and there is no justice at all. Nana Ogawa's army is no exception.

Nana Ogawa arose and, through his own efforts, may have accelerated the demise of the State of Qin and rescued Yu Shu at an early date. However, the purpose of Nana Ogawa's joining the army is very simple, that is, to overthrow the Qin Dynasty, rescue Yu Shu, and let them fly together and grow old together. For the construction of a new world order, he has never thought about it, nor implemented it, and it is even more impossible to have such an ability (it can be seen from the time when he and Liu Bang said that the gap is the boundary, there is no unified thought in his heart, and division can only bring temporary peace, and reunification can bring long-term stability). Isn't this a hasty start? That is to say, when Nana Ogawa was not desperate, he rashly started fighting. Although he used the banner of "Jun Qing side" or overthrew the tyrannical Qin Dynasty, he actually participated in a war for the world. Such a war is unjust. Should Nana Ogawa be responsible for starting this war? "Soldiers, state affairs, places of life and death, and ways of survival must be observed."

In the play, Nana Ogawa abused force. I don't know how many people died in vain, and how many people will lose their true love in order to find his true love. Since ancient times, there have been poems such as "Drunk in the battlefield and not laughing, there have been several wars since ancient times" and "You are still a dream girl on the river", which shows the cruelty of war. If you can sacrifice many other people's lives for the people you love, can the extravagance and waste of Shang Zhouwang and da ji and Zhou Youwang's bonfire drama "The Princess" be rehabilitated? Nana Ogawa's practice is actually the same as that of Shang Zhouwang and Zhou Youwang, but this is only pot calling the kettle black. Here, I made a metaphysical mistake and got Nana Ogawa online, but I really don't want the original beautiful love to be built on piles of corpses. Can't the directors arrange a better way to interpret Nana Ogawa's love for Yushu? People can pursue their true love, but they can't forget and evade their responsibilities, and they can't sacrifice the interests of others or even their lives in exchange for their true love. Such people are selfish and such love is spurned by others. When a person can understand his own responsibility and shoulder this responsibility, he will really grow and mature. Only mature love can last for a long time and achieve the best effect. Meng Yi in the movie Myth and Meng Tian in the TV series Myth are both role models for mature men. Their love for Li Fei is pure, passionate and mature at the same time, so they can keep this love deep in their hearts, which is the best way to deal with themselves and Li Fei.

Based on the above two possible discussions, in order to create a positive image of Nana Ogawa and promote the theme of the play-love, Nana Ogawa should not be arranged to come out of the plot. The director has charged our lovely Nana Ogawa with "committing a war disaster for his own selfish desires, which is unforgivable", which is the biggest failure of the play in portraying Nana Ogawa.

To sum up, the core theme of this drama is to describe love, and the most ink is love. However, the love between Dachuan and Gaolan, and between Nana Ogawa and Yushu, due to the unreasonable plot setting and improper expression techniques, caused the opposite effect and defiled the original beautiful love. So as far as the theme of TV series is concerned, the myth of TV series is disappointing.
