It is said that "Intolerance" is the highest-rated Hong Kong drama selected by Chinese people around the world, surpassing "Shanghai on the Beach" and "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".
103010 is indeed a classic. Just like the difference between many TVB TV and many mainland TV, because of the acting skills and style, the people I saw in the drama were not acting, but living. Now I can only praise their acting skills, because the bad guy is so bad that people can't wait to avoid and kill him, and the good guy is so good that people can't help but follow him and help him. The most important reason for this effect is that it draws you into their world, which is the same as a good book. I have had this feeling when reading Jin Yong's novels and watching other classic TV works.
After reading these things, you will not forget them immediately. There is always something left. As a person, doing things, growing, and maturing, we learn many qualities that we can use invisibly. This is the power of example.
About human nature. People will change and become bad. The key is to take the first step. It is often someone else who touches you, takes one step, and then takes the second and third steps to reach the other side of sin. Everyone hates this ending. The point is, at first we thought we were right. We may see the temptation in front of us, but pretend not to see the mud under our feet. One day, we couldn't pull our legs out anymore, so we looked begging for mercy. One person said it was too late. When we have a choice, we think we have no choice, but when we have no choice, we think there is another way to choose. Nature remains unchanged, the only difference is that some people do small things, and some people do great evil.
It is a matter of human character. Does character determine destiny? I don't think so. There is no good or bad character, only good or bad destiny. Every effect has a cause, and a person's character is only an influence at best. The determining factors are a person's nature, his bad roots or benevolence, and the resulting actions. Bad people hang themselves after doing many unjust things. You can't blame fate.
About human emotions. Is emotion versus interest? "Life and death, wealth, happiness for you and your son, hold your hand and grow old together with your son." I suddenly realized how deep this love is. Putting interests on another scale and weighing emotions is too low-level. Even people who lean towards the other side are a bit like animals, or even worse. In the human world, righteousness means tolerance. Where do you start being kind when faced with scum that is worse than a beast?
Let’s talk about the male protagonist first, Ding Youjian, a very classic positive TV character, a person who is too good to be nice, even to the point of being kind enough not to hurt himself. This should also be one of the more successful roles played by Huang Rihua. He showed filial piety to his elders, selfless concern for relatives and friends, true love for his girlfriend, concern for his brother and disappointment and even despair. It can also be said that it is quite satisfactory and has almost no mistakes. Among the many characters in "Intolerance", although Ding Youjian is the male protagonist, the reason for his success is obviously not the drama, but Huang Rihua's performance is the key to his success. Cooperating with , Stephen Chow, etc., Huang's performance was impeccable. From the gambler's father at the beginning (Ding Youjian's father is a compulsive gambler, I don't like this less important role), to the taxi driver who works hard to support the family, to the students of the Department of Correctional Services , a prisoner in prison, and finally a proud man in the business world. Every time his identity changes, his god-like demeanor, words and deeds are all in place. In particular, one of the passages dealing with the Crown Prince (Carina Lau) is even more skillful, cordial and natural. She likes swords, but she has never confessed. Jian was kept in the dark, but he was still regarded as a good friend who talked about everything. She even went to Chujun to rent a house when she met her girlfriend to review her English. Looking at the whole play, this section is relatively relaxed and enjoyable, although the prince feels very uncomfortable, haha.
103010 looks quite heavy, and You Jian is probably the most tired. Although he is positive, optimistic and open-minded, and eventually has a fortune of hundreds of millions, he actually seems to be the most unfortunate. I didn’t have any money when I needed it, so after graduating from elementary school, I had to work to support my family. Even on my birthday, I lost two jobs trying to get some justice for my dead mother. These are nothing, and the twists and turns in the middle are nothing.
Except for the period of falling in love with Youjian, Ahua has never been happy. Even when he got married to Youjian, he was embarrassed and humiliated by Youjian's escape from the marriage (this episode is simply like "The Legend of Heaven and Dragon Sword"). When Youjian refused to take his parents back to Malaysia, they encountered a plane crash. His parents were killed, and Ah Hua, who finally survived, was disabled. I don’t know why the screenwriter is so cruel. In fact, this character can be handled differently. For example, if there is no plane crash, he can live in Malaysia forever. Maybe it was to increase the tragic effect of television. In fact, few people in the entire TV series have good results in the end. We will talk about this later.
The tragedy comparable to that of Ahua is Zhao Jiamin, played by Shao Meiqi. Jiamin, who thought she had found true love, was pushed off the train by Youkang, while she was pregnant with Youkang's child. Shao Meiqi started acting in TV dramas very early and has been acting until now. The ones she has recently watched include "Emperor's Flower" and "Interpol 4". Shao's acting skills can be said to have reached the next level, which is gratifying, but when I think of the past events of Yi Mian , outsiders can’t help but sigh. Shao Meiqi and Wen Zhaolun have collaborated in many dramas. I have watched "The Third Kind of Court", and I remember that Wen Zhaolun was pushed off the plane by Shao Meiqi and fell into the sea and became an idiot. It can be said that this moment, the other moment, but here is Wen Zhaolun pushed Shao Meiqi off the train, making Jia Min one of the most unfortunate characters on television. There is a difference between Jiamin's misfortune and Ahua's misfortune. In comparison, Jiamin is more innocent and more like a victim. In the whole story, Jiamin is completely powerless. It may be because of his own positivity that he led to tragedy. Ah Hua's misfortune was accidental. If You Jian had not accidentally discovered the letter and had not run away from the marriage, this tragedy could have been avoided fundamentally; and if there had not been a plane crash with a small chance of happening, Ah Hua and his parents would have lived in the same world. Malaysia, although it is a pity not to be with the person you like, time will solve such problems and the ultimate tragedy can be avoided. Jiamin's fate was bad. When she met Youkang at that time, she was almost certain to die. She would either be killed by Youkang or commit suicide (in fact, she also had this plan and wrote a suicide note). Ah Hua was unlucky, and many unfortunate things happened to him, and as a result, he fell headlong into tragedy and could not extricate himself.
Basically every character has suffered at least one disaster, and everyone has paid their own corresponding price. The whole story can be said to be a tragedy from the beginning to the end, but what is promoted on TV is a positive spirit, a spirit of survival in adversity. Even in business dealings, what is emphasized is morality and human relations rather than money. To the relief of many people, Youkang was not able to escape the punishment of the law in the end. He was hanged like his mother and ended a life that started in prison. It’s not mentioned on TV, but we may be able to see that good deeds are rewarded with good deeds and evil deeds are rewarded with evil deeds. No matter when, although it may not be true, we should believe in it and walk every step of the way. .
