Why is the drama of the Republic of China becoming more and more distorted?

Because the hero and heroine love beans, close their eyes and blow their looks all over the screen. Male one also has an alpaca bangs, which seems to be intentionally or unintentionally rolled on his forehead, but it is not as eye-catching as male two.

In the early stage of this drama, the picture of the station sister is quite textured. After adding the Abao color filter, fans don't want to claim it, which is light and cheap.

This reminds me of a question: since when did the drama of the Republic of China get farther and farther away from the real Republic of China?

In recent years, the dramas of the Republic of China, to be honest, the heroines' costumes are pretty good-looking. I want to go to Taobao to check the same style, but you know very well that they are wearing retro costumes, not real Republic of China costumes.

Cai Wenjing in Light is more like coming out of The Great Gatsby than a rich man in the old society.

The heroine of The Beauty of Cheongsam, which is mainly dressed in the Republic of China, also wears a daisy head.

Cai Wenjing has more modern hairstyles. From my superficial understanding, neither young women nor girls have seen such a style in the photos of the Republic of China.

I can't help but mention The Origin of Love, in which Carina Lau and Rulu are not dressed correctly. Manlu is too extravagant and not simple enough, so you don't see any need for the sisters to commit themselves to a rich old man.

Another trend is gorgeous female spies with a long history, big red lips and curly hair. Beauty is beauty, but something is wrong. The dresses of Lulu and Janice Man in The Wind are not contradictory to today's Bazaar Charity Dinner.

So is the wedding dress. Perhaps for the sake of beauty, modern aesthetic elements have been added. Look at Song Meiling's wedding dress, and then casually find a wedding photo of the rich in the Republic of China. A stylist may feel ugly.

When we look at the old photos of the Republic of China, although they are black and white, we can see that people rarely wear strange clothes. Zhang Ailing's cheongsam jacket is short, and she likes to use bright colors, which can be ridiculed by Jiang Yang. Because of her clothes, the workers in the whole printing factory stopped working. It's normal to look at these clothes now, except that the sleeves are wider, the flowers are bigger and the colors are brighter.

And the characters of the Republic of China in our film and television dramas are much more avant-garde than Zhang Ailing. How come no passers-by are watching?

In the past, the dramas of the Republic of China were not without exaggerated costumes, but the premise was usually related to the role identity. For example, Li Yuanyuan played the third aunt in A Morning on the Beach. This strapless dress can still be worn now, which was quite bold at that time.

In the movie bosom friend, Zhang Yu has a big skirt with piping and a sun hat, but because she plays the famous prostitute Fengxian Xiao.

Most people still wear simple Yin Lin cheongsam, and the lily play performed by Li and Yolanda is called Yin Lin, but this kind of play is rare in the drama of the Republic of China today, and everyone wears neither fish nor fowl.

In Fortress Besieged, Fang Hung-chien is a descendant of the squire and an upper-middle class. Zhao and Su are both second-generation standard officials. However, the color of Sue's clothes is quite simple, and she has never been topless. She often wears an indigo cheongsam and a white shirt.

Her most gorgeous dress is a sleeveless white satin cheongsam, in order to be angry with Fang Hung-chien after becoming a Shangguan lady. But in the present drama, Miss Butler is not only covered in silks and satins, but also quite exposed, which makes Miss Bao, who is "extreme in truth", candidly admit defeat. You know, Miss Bao's dress style was a joke at that time.

In the past, the most ostentatious costume for men was a white three-piece suit with a bow tie, but now they dress like circus magicians. There is even a burgundy dress that fell in love at first sight.

The hero met the woman privately and wore a silver-gray printed suit, which at first glance looked like white lace and a silver brooch. This dress is not like Jong, but like a magic bean on the runway.

Speaking of Jong, this play is really a great pleasure. The first man is a handsome boy and the second man is also a handsome boy. In the second episode, the two were still young and handsome, and the barrage wondered: Is young and handsome wholesale?

Commander-in-chief of Beiyang government is rampant, and it is a respectful title to add handsome after the word. But if you add other words, it is ironic, such as Zhang Xun's braided handsome, or a prince's brother-in-law named Shuai Shu. Jong is also a joke, similar to the official's son, and few people call it face to face. Zhang Xueliang, the spokesman of Jong, hated being called Jong all his life. Yang Yuting, who dares to call him to his face, is shot by him.

Modern clothes and luxury buildings. If you have been to the former residence of celebrities in Shanghai, you will find that the interior of Xiaoyanglou is generally dark and the floor color is dull. Song Meiling was the most luxurious woman in China at that time, and the residence of the drama of the Republic of China should not exceed her level. In her former residences in Lushan Mountain and Taiwan Province Province, there were no surprises except the advanced toilets and bathtubs at that time. The beds and furniture are minimalist, while the luxurious ones are the large botanical garden and rose garden of Shilin official residence.

But in our drama of the Republic of China, what you see is a dome like a European palace, eight or nine meters high, with a red carpet and a spiral staircase. The living room can accommodate a dance of 100 people at any time.

The family members of the "Golden Powder Family" were the prime ministers of the Beiyang government, and their homes were decorated with the most luxurious scenery at that time. Compared with the home of any protagonist now, the scene is shabby.

Take love at first sight as an example. As soon as the heroine appeared, she was in a gorgeous big house. As soon as the camera turns, you find her on the boat. The deck of this ship is brand new. In short, the naked eye looks like a shed.

Fortress Besieged also started from a ship. Can you believe that they are in the same era?

Obviously, there are no props, and somehow, the current drama of the Republic of China especially likes to set the heroine's appearance mode as coming back from abroad and returning to China by cruise ship. "Detective Quotations" can't borrow a boat, and even dare not perform with a group. I found a corner where no one could let the heroine lean against the fence and overlook.

The heroine of Detective is poor. The first time she came to Shanghai by train, the camera followed her: English buildings with spires, billboards with neon lights flashing, posters of retro European and American girls ... Needless to say, I thought she had arrived in London.

I don't know when it started. The poor in the dramas of the Republic of China are even rarer than those in the urban dramas. Qiong Yao's movies were once called three-hall movies: living room, dining room and ballroom. Isn't that what the drama of the Republic of China is like? Paramount and Shanghai are the standard of drama in the Republic of China. The protagonist must live in the concession. Even ordinary citizens wear bright clothes and often ride rickshaws.

Of course, the protagonists are more sons and nobles. It seems that only they are qualified to fall in love and represent the Republic of China. Only in TV plays will you walk around.

In the world of drama in the Republic of China, 19 12- 1949 is bright, gorgeous and romantic. Usually, we should refer to the drama of the Republic of China before the fall of Beiyang government and the Republic of China in the next 20 years. However, due to the war, we can't pretend that we can't see a series of dislocations such as the war of resistance and civil war.

In the relatively peaceful Beiyang period, if you look for some video materials at that time, you will still find that the urban poor are thin and short, the squires are mostly small and fat, and the senior intellectuals are close to modern people, but thinner.

The GDP of the Qing government was the highest in the world, and the Beiyang government was the seventh, and the people were quite poor. You can refer to the works of Zhang Henshui, the head of Yuanyang Butterfly School. Even though he was thought to have been suspended at that time, it also reflected the social reality, and his protagonist still had poor people.

Shen Fengxi of "Cry and Laugh" is a drummer at the bottom, singing in the broken shed of the overpass. After being raised by the leading actor, she wears glasses and cuts her hair like a schoolgirl, which is very fashionable. The hero has a good family, but he was surprised to see his second daughter's high heels in a glass box.

In Fortress Besieged, in order to buy a fur coat, Fang Hung-chien was looked down upon and won the money of his blind date's parents at cards.

The prime minister in "Golden Powder Family" also asks his daughter-in-law for money every day. This is every dust of the times, and all walks of life are worried about money. Even if the current drama of the Republic of China tells the protagonist that he is at the end of the road, his clothes are still changed one by one.

This all-round filtering made children who didn't look at history have romantic fantasies about the Republic of China, thinking that the warlord Mrs. Guo was wearing cheongsam and beautiful fur all day and was dancing, but that was when she didn't see them being whipped. Costume dramas only show the life of the court and the nobility, so they are fascinated by the theme of crossing.

To be responsible, if they are really thrown into that era, their only goal in life is how to put them back on. If you don't believe me, you can check the ancient torture, ordinary people's financial situation, diet, life expectancy ... not to mention not playing mobile phones and computers. How many people can stand life without toilets and air conditioning now? Think about it again. In ancient times, there were no sanitary products, so we had to use plant ash cloth instead, and so did the princess. The present is always better than the past, and the future is always stronger than the present, unless there is a war and the earth is destroyed.
