Bright Era of China Entertainment

【"Ladies and gentlemen, those who are going to the capital of Huaguo..."】

"President Chu." The announcement of the flight resounded in all directions, and the assistant walked towards Chu Xuan in the lounge and shouted.

Zhou Wenqiong was drinking coffee and reading magazines on the sofa next to her. She turned her head and glanced at Chu Xuan, and saw that Chu Xuan opened his eyes when he heard the sound of the flight announcement. It was obvious that Chu Xuan hadn't slept through and was half asleep between.

In her gaze, the corners of Chu Xuan's eyes were bloodshot, and he looked listless, looking very tired.

Zhou Wenqiong shook her head slowly. It was not long before she and Qianqian separated, and the thoughts in her heart made Chu Xuan unable to sleep. This child is also a kind of love.

However, Qianqian is her niece, and of course she is very satisfied with Chu Xuan's performance as her boyfriend.

"Auntie, then I'll go first." Chu Xuan picked up the cover covering his body, got up and put it on.

The two flights are not at the same time, Chu Xuan has to go first.

Zhou Wenqiong nodded slightly: "If you have time to see Sissi, you can contact me first. If I am free, you can come to Los Angeles to find me first, and we will come together."

Zhou Wenqiong has her own clothing business in Los Angeles, and spends most of the year in Los Angeles.

"Okay." Chu Xuan agreed, put on the clothes and smoothed the folds of the corners of the clothes.

"Bon voyage." Zhou Wenqiong said.

"Auntie has a good trip too." Chu Xuan waved his hand and said, "Let's go."

Under Zhou Wenqiong's gaze, Chu Xuan and his party gradually drifted away, following the flow of people and disappearing into the registration passage.

At the same time, in the Eli community of New Haven, two black SUVs stopped in front of the gate of the villa.

Liu Xiaoli and Concubine Liu Yi's mother and daughter got out of the car and arrived home smoothly.

Concubine Liu Yi's eyes were slightly red, due to the sleepiness caused by staying up all night last night, and also due to the longing for parting with Chu Xuan.

She took out her mobile phone immediately after getting off the car, and sent a text message: [Take a good rest on the plane, remember to call me as soon as you get off the plane, I will wait for you. 】

"Go and rest." Watching her daughter take back her phone, Liu Xiaoli urged her daughter with a bit of distress when she saw the exhaustion on her daughter's face.

Concubine Liu Yi nodded, and dragged her tired body upstairs.

It's just that after coming to the bedroom, Chu Xuan's shoes and clothes were missing in the room, as if any trace of Chu Xuan had been lost, which made her feel mixed.

But when she was deeply sleepy, she still suppressed the discomfort, took off her shoes and flopped on the bed.

She glanced at the empty bed on the left. She, who used to like to sleep on the right, moved her body, lay on the left, and covered herself with a quilt.

There was the smell of Chu Xuan here, as if it could turn into the sense of security that she was very familiar with, and she fell into a deep sleep not long after.

"Sir, the plane is closed and is about to take off. Please turn off your mobile phone and fasten your seat belt, thank you."

On the plane at New York International Airport, Chu Xuan looked down at the text message from Concubine Liu Yi on his phone, and he couldn't help smiling.

Hearing the flight attendant's voice, Chu Xuan raised his head and looked at each other, then nodded, turned off the phone, fastened the seat belt, adjusted the angle of the seat, and reclined to rest with his eyes closed.

There will always be some frustration when there is one less person around, or someone who has been with you for a long time.

Under this feeling of frustration, even though he was exhausted, Chu Xuan couldn't fall asleep even though his eyes were closed after the plane took off.

It wasn't until he was overwhelmed by uncontrollable fatigue that Chu Xuan slowly lost consciousness, and accompanied the plane through the sky, heading for the way back home.

However, Chu Xuan himself is sleeping in the sky, but his character will soon appear on domestic TV screens.

Today is March 3, Beijing time, and "Struggle" will also end today.

Many viewers across the country are waiting in front of the TV, waiting for the finale of "Struggle" to be broadcast.

The same is true for Shenghai's Xiaoyun.

The TV in the living room was on, playing commercials.

She was sitting on the sofa, holding her mobile phone and bowing her head to chat in the group, before the broadcast of "Struggle", to pass the boring commercial time.

The group is the fan group of Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi. When "Struggle" is about to start broadcasting, the chatter in the group is naturally all about the plot of struggle.

Since "Struggle" started broadcasting, she, including many people, came to see Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi.

But as the plot unfolded, most audiences were gradually attracted by the story of "Struggle".

The growth lines of the three pairs of CPs, including Mi Lai's separate relationship line, some of the plots unfolded in it resonated with many audiences, and each had their own thoughts and discussions, which also made "Struggle" more popular.

Although it is not as phenomenal as last year's "Sculpture of God", in the eyes of industry insiders, "Struggle" has already locked in this year's TV drama's hit seat.

Lin Junjie's "Wings" played on the TV. Xiaoyun looked up at the very familiar opening title, and lowered her head to chat with her group of friends about the plot, with anticipation in her eyes.

After Lu Tao gave up his career last time and took the initiative to save it, he rushed to the airport to reconcile with Charlene. Lu's father hated him for not fighting but had no choice.

Lu's father felt wronged, but he had no choice but to support him.

"What can I do if I only have this one son?" At that time, Lu's father was unable to complain, which made audiences across the country laugh.

As a result, Charlene joined Lu's father's real estate company, and started working and struggling with Lu Tao.

Charlene has become a senior executive in the workplace, and her class and Lu Tao have reached an agreement, and the salary level is also the same.

The couple's career has reached a balance, and the burden in their hearts has also dissipated. As the relationship grows stronger, the career is also going smoothly.

The couple are people with strong self-esteem, and the success of their careers has made them more confident.

However, it is a good thing for young people to have self-confidence, but it is often easy to be blindly confident when they are too smooth, and in the end they can only bear the result of failure.

The story of their failure was broadcast in the first few episodes. The couple took on a super-large architectural design project. Due to lack of experience, it eventually led to overtime and overfunding. After Party B sued, the couple was hit hard by the failure of the project. , thus depressed endlessly.

Xiaoyun thought, according to the story line of previous TV dramas, Lu Tao and Charlene's ending will definitely not be like this, and they will definitely get out of the predicament.

This is also the ending she and the audience want to see.

Sure enough, as the TV plot aired, she guessed right.

"What?! You and Charlene are going to France?!" In the office, Papa Lu got up suddenly, startled.

"Yes." Lu Tao nodded.

"What are you going to do in France?" Papa Lu wondered.

"I want to study there with Charlene, and then start a business from scratch." Lu Tao expressed his and Charlene's thoughts.

"Entrepreneurship?" Father Lu's eyes widened, and he pointed to his seat: "You are my son, this company will be yours sooner or later, you told me you were going to start a business?"

Lu Tao was silent for a while, and said: "In the past few years, you have been forcing me to help me a lot. I know you are good to me, but this also made me lose the process of accumulating experience. I want to start over with Charlene. , go forward step by step, and learn what really applies to me.”

"And then?" Father Lu made a ridiculous expression.

"First set up a studio, then start a company, and then develop slowly." Lu Tao said.

"Studio? Start a company?" Lu's father said contemptuously: "Do you know how much hardship I have put in to get to this point? Do you know how difficult it is to get ahead in this industry?"

With a "snap", Father Lu slammed the table heavily and shouted angrily: "Lu Tao! Can you stop having those unrealistic fantasies! Can we be more realistic!"

Father Lu's action of slapping the table did not scare Lu Tao, but made Lu Tao look angry, and also slapped the table: "I haven't done anything yet, why is it so unrealistic!"

Father Lu was startled, and looked at Lu Tao angrily.

"I said before that I have different ideas from yours. Please don't impose your ideas on me. What you think is just what you think. What you think is not necessarily right." Lu Tao turned around and left.

The national audience in front of the TV felt inexplicably hearty when they saw this plot.

In this rivalry between Chu Xuan and Mr. Zhang Chenguang, aside from the acting skills, these few lines of dialogue reflected how much the audience felt.

[Please don't impose your thoughts on me, what you think is just what you think, and what you think is not necessarily right. 】

Just this one sentence made the student audience think of their parents. Under the pressure of their parents, under the indoctrination of what the parents say is right, how many students and children can act according to their own ideas?

Just this sentence makes young people who work in the workplace feel uncomfortable. Obviously I have better ideas, but the boss always restricts my development with his thoughts; I can go home after work, but the boss is always there. Call me for a meeting after work, in the name of using free time to improve work efficiency.

Just this one sentence made the old people who live alone feel a lot of emotion. Obviously I am very lonely, but you as children think that I am doing well; obviously I only said a good-hearted lie, saying that I am busy with the holidays. Don't go home, I didn't expect you to take it seriously.

All these situations, because of Chu Xuan's interpretation of the plot, made many audiences resonate strongly.

They also wanted to imagine Chu Xuan on TV saying this sentence, but in reality, due to the existence of various factors, they could only sigh in their hearts.

As for the audiences across the country who went out to work, in addition to this resonance, they were also inspired and encouraged by Chu Xuan's performance.

In this plot, one side is to inherit the family property and lie down to win, and the other side is to start a business from scratch.

In front of anyone to choose, it is estimated that most people will choose the former.

If this plot is really put in real life, it looks a bit unrealistic.

However, how many rich second generations are there in reality?How many people can inherit the family property in reality?

In reality, most of them are ordinary people.

Under the pen and ink of screenwriter teacher Shi Kang, this plot is designed for ordinary people to read.

The rich second generation, Lu Tao, did not choose to inherit the family property, but relied on his own efforts to work hard and struggle.

Perhaps in the eyes of the real rich second generation, this is silly.

But in the eyes of ordinary people, this is great.

——The second generation of rich people have chosen to work hard, so what reason do we have not to work hard?
This is also the meaning of this plot.

If Lu Tao was just an ordinary person, the audience would not feel this way.

Because of the gap in status, people of low class will subconsciously believe in people of high class, which is why they feel this way.

For example, when Ma Yun talked about success, many people felt that they had learned something.

But if Ma Yun were replaced by an ordinary person who said the same thing, the devil would believe it.

"It's so handsome!" Many young viewers praised Lu Tao's behavior in front of the TV. They also yearned for the personality and chic of Lu Tao played by Chu Xuan.

At this point in the plot, the ending of Lu Tao and Charlene is clear. The couple will go to France for further study and start a business.

In the eyes of the audience, the following plot ended the ending of others.

Xiang Nan, played by Huang Xuan, and Yang Xiaoyun, played by Zhao Liying, finally remarried.

Huazi, played by Chen He, broke up with Lulu, played by Jiang Xin, and closed the shop sadly, traveled around the country with her savings to relax, and finally returned to the barber shop and reopened.

Mi Lai, played by Su Chang, feels resentful because Lu Tao and Charlene are together, so he goes abroad for three years.I wanted to forget someone for three years, but I didn’t expect to love him even more. After returning to China, I sought a chance to be with Lu Tao, but after many conversations with Charlene, I realized that Lu Tao loved Charlene deeply, and finally chose to go abroad again. relieved.

["The same airport,

different world.

same coffee,
Different palate. "]

Accompanied by Lin Junjie's "Wings", Lu Tao and Charlene walked to the airport hand in hand and sat drinking coffee together.

As the audience listened to the song and looked at the TV screen, many people finally understood the double meaning of the song in this drama.

In the beginning of the TV show, Mi Lai went abroad because of a secret hatred between Lu Tao and Charlene. This song is sung to Lu Tao and Mi Lai.

But now, both Lu Tao and Xia Lin are going abroad to work hard together. In this situation, this song is obviously sung for Lu Tao and Xia Lin.

One song sang two parts of life, one was youth and the other was struggle.

Following the TV screen, Lu Tao and Charlene got on the plane, the plane flew into the blue sky, and finally the subtitles appeared - [End of the whole play].

"It's the end." Xiaoyun pouted, feeling a little disappointed that a good TV series had ended, but she was more satisfied with the beginning and end of the ending.

She threw the remote control away and trotted to the bedroom, preparing to read reviews online.

The popularity of "Struggle" has made some drama critics very active. As long as a new plot is broadcast, some drama critics will always appear on the Internet as soon as possible.

Xiaoyun clicked on the homepage of a drama critic who was following NPC V. The comment of this drama critic was the one that was most in line with her wishes, and also the one she thought was the most professional.

After waiting for a while, a fresh message popped up on the webpage——

["Struggle" ended, the editor is very emotional.

Due to professional reasons, the editor needs to conduct in-depth research on each plot. Most people probably just follow the time and watch the drama once, but the editor watches the replay every day, and I have watched the plot at least five or six times from the beginning to the end. .

Because I have watched it many times, I think I have seen something deeper, and the thoughts and meanings that this show really wants to express. As usual, I will express my thoughts here, and friends can discuss and communicate at any time. 】

Xiaoyun moved the mouse and continued to look down.

[Analyzing the growth line of each character in the whole story from beginning to end, we will find a very interesting point.

When Lu Tao and Charlene were together, they said that they should work hard and create their own careers. This was their original intention when they first graduated and entered the society from scratch.

But the plan couldn't keep up with the changes, and some things happened, which made the two of them gradually deviate from their original intention.

But watching the finale that was just broadcast, Lu Tao and Charlene started from scratch and returned to the original starting point.

Looking at Xiang Nan and Yang Xiaoyun, these two have only known each other for a few days, and they lied to their parents and stole their household registration books.

But Xiangnan and Yang Xiaoyun are muddled characters, they like to pursue excitement and novelty, and they have no sense of family responsibility.

First, the conflict broke out about whether the pregnant child should have children, and then the divorce conflict broke out after Yang Xiaoyun cheated and Xiang Nan also chose to cheat.

But in the end, Xiang Nan and Yang Xiaoyun returned to the Civil Affairs Bureau where they got married to remarry, returning to the original starting point.

Looking at Huazi and Lulu again, Lulu's heart of relying on men so that the whole family can live a good life in the big city has not changed from the beginning to the end, because Zhutou's conditions are better than Huazi's, Lulu cheated on Zhutou.

Huazi worked hard for Lulu, opened a barber shop, rented a good house, everything he did was for Lulu.

But Lulu's behavior hit Huazi deeply, and Huazi closed down the barber shop, which was getting better and better, and took the savings to travel all over the country to relax.

But in the finale, Huazi lost his travel money and came back almost penniless, but he regained his confidence and became stronger.

He reopened the barber shop and started working hard from scratch, which is similar to the situation at the beginning of the plot, returning to the original starting point.

Finally, look at Mi Lai, this wealthy Bai Fumei is the first woman who fell in love with Lu Tao, but Lu Tao and Charlene got together, which disappointed Mi Lai so much that she went abroad for three years.

Mi Lai originally wanted to forget Lu Tao, but unexpectedly, the more he wanted to forget, the more he loved him. Then he chose to return to China and did some behaviors that only a "little three" would do, trying to snatch Lu Tao back from Xia Lin.

However, through long-term trials and observations, Mi Lai discovers that Lu Tao has true love for Charlene, which makes her fall into confusion and hesitation for a while, and has doubts and entanglements about her behavior.

Finally, under Charlene's persuasion, Mi Lai came to his senses, and fell in love with someone who didn't love him at all.

Thanks to Charlene's persuasion, Mi Lai and Charlene reunited, their hearts were completely relieved, they regained their good mood, they were no longer bound by love, they gained complete freedom spiritually, and finally went abroad to pursue their ideals again.

The moment Mi Lai got on the plane, he went back to the starting point of going abroad as in the beginning. 】

Xiaoyun watched, pondered carefully, and kept nodding.

[Above, we will find a very interesting point.

The seven people in "Struggle" have the same ending as the beginning.

Well, many people may have doubts. After struggling for so many years, and returning to the original starting point, what kind of struggle is this?
Next, the editor will talk about the thoughts and concepts that "Struggle" really wants to express that the editor personally sorted out.

Did Lu Tao and Charlene succeed?The editor thinks it is successful because they have found the direction of love and the rhythm of life that suits them.

Did Xiang Nan and Yang Xiaoyun succeed?The editor thinks it is a success, because they found the responsibility and found the meaning of a home.

Are Huazi and Lulu successful?The editor thinks it is a success, Lulu has achieved her goal, and Huazi has found her future direction in life, and will focus on developing her career after regrouping.

Did Millay succeed?The editor thinks it is a success, she walked out of the confusion of love, she got the freedom of thought, the sublimation of mood, and also found the goal of struggle.

And love?responsibility?cause?Target?The four elements expressed by the seven people in the plot all revolve around one word, that is-life.

Therefore, the "struggle" in "Struggle" does not mean that making money is struggling. It actually tells the life of young people and the changes of young people at various stages.

The purpose is to tell us that sometimes we should not care about the result, but to see whether we have gained something in the process of struggle. If there is something to gain, then this period of struggle is successful. 】

"That's very well said." Xiaoyun narrowed her eyes slightly. This article allowed her to reorganize her senses and gain a deeper understanding of the drama "Struggle".

She moved the mouse and scrolled down to read the comments.

[The editor is awesome, this drama review is deeply rooted in my heart, there are indeed many points worth thinking about, this is not an ordinary idol drama. 】

[You have a lot of words, I'm embarrassed to read it without giving you a like. 】

[I'm the opposite of you, I usually don't read words with too many words. 】

[It's a good drama, worthy of the first place in the same period. 】

[Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi's another classic! 】

[Wo Xuan and my concubine are so great, they succeeded as soon as they transformed, who else! 】

[Hey, "Struggle" is over, there is no drama to watch. 】

[No show to watch?Next week is "Zhu Xian". 】

Xiao Yun's eyes lit up: "That's right, "Zhu Xian" will start airing next week! Although Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi won't be acting, it's their production. You must watch it."

After spending nearly a month chasing the drama "Struggle", many viewers who were immersed in the storyline forgot about "Zhu Xian" for a moment.

Seeing that many people on the Internet began to talk about "Zhu Xian", they all looked forward to it as happily as Xiaoyun.

And "Struggle" followed the finale, and there were waves of discussions and emotions on the Internet, all night long without stopping.

And when the moon was setting and the sun was rising, and it was close to mid-sun, an international flight from New York landed smoothly at Beijing Airport.
