"Fourteen Years of Chenghua" by Mengxi Stone

When Xianwang began to decline and Chinese writers began to return to the local novel network (about 2004), I had not read danmei novels for several years due to work, raising children, Mite photography and Japanese niche artists; Shi Shi, this is the first work recommended to me. At that time, I was still a young freshman who paid attention to the plot (Obviously, the meat was very fierce before, I don't know why it changed after a while), I thought it was very good-looking, so I watched a lot of Mengxi Stone. s work. But for me, who has become a carnivore now, I would rather watch "Mountains, Rivers, Sun and Moon", because there are more emotional dramas and minced meat than this one, this one is too clear...

The first time I watched it, I thought it was super suitable for adaptation as a live-action version---the handsome Sherlock Holmes-Watson duo played the case of Bao Gong Judgment, which was very suitable for the appetite of the Chinese audience. The love of the protagonist is very obscure and not very flashy (= not sweet at all). It is completely possible to turn the two into just friends without CP without mentioning it and without affecting the plot. It is much easier than Chen Qingling, anyway. The two people in the story were secretive, and the author also wrote secretly. In fact, when I read the novel, I couldn't tell when the two of them were officially together. After the second kiss, Sui Zhou's reaction was still "the revolution has not yet succeeded, comrades still need to work hard", still waiting Seeing how they confessed to each other, they suddenly found out from someone else's mouth that they were already together, and was a little surprised.

Every time I see this kind of story with a very attractive plot and an irresistible emotional line, I feel that it is a pity that the protagonist's sexuality is divided into a happy one. Obviously the script is great, but because the two When the male protagonist is written as a pair, it is characterized as a niche danmei, which prevents many readers who do not read danmei or even most of the male readers. It is quite a pity.

In addition to the smooth plot, the writing of this one is really nothing to say. I especially like the classics mixed with some very non-archaic and modern complaints. And the textual research is very deep, but the explanation of the textual research part is naturally integrated into the text, and it does not feel too abrupt. This text skill must be deep enough. Then because I like the equal status of strong attack and strong attack, it is best to attack the king as a loyal dog attack. The performance of the story from the beginning to the end is very dazzling, and this one quite meets this standard.

In fact, I strongly doubt that what the author really wants to write is Eunuch Wang, but he and Xichang have left too little data in history, so he had to be played as a supporting role. It can be clearly seen that the reason why he is a supporting role is purely because he and Tang Fan cannot be paired. In fact, his role is similar to that of Sui Zhou.

Of course this isn't perfect. From the point of view of danmei, Sui Zhou has too few scenes, there is a bit of background board, I always feel that he can arrange a love scene where he is seriously injured for his wife. Well. Especially since he was promoted by Uncle Feng to the commissioner of the township, he didn't have any outstanding performances, which was a pity. In addition, if a dungeon is cleared, the next dungeon will be jumped immediately, and the time will jump for three years after two lines. Even the two protagonists are not given time to recover from their injuries, and sometimes they feel caught off guard. Wouldn't it be nice to write some sweet emotional scenes in the middle of the two copies... Then, since this one focuses on the plot, it can be said to be a mystery novel, I will judge it with a relatively high standard, so the biggest problem is that Sherlock Holmes is too smart. Maybe it was because he had seen too much scientific handling of the case, but always felt that there were not enough clues, so the detective Tang Fan made his inferences steadily, and sometimes even jumped, making it less fun to solve the case.

But the flaws do not hide the good, this one is indeed worthy of its fame. Even though I have evolved(?) to be a carnivore, I can only describe the love scene of the two protagonists as hunger and thirst from beginning to end; but because the plot is really beautiful, I can still reach the system recommendation level, which is the best among all the author's works. Favorite one. In a word, Mengxi Shi's writing should not be viewed as danmei.

As for the live-action drama, hey.... Because it's not difficult to shoot, and the protagonist is a Taiwanese actor, I was looking forward to it; but... It's about the same time as Chen Qingling's broadcast. The filming, so it can be seen that at the beginning, I wanted to help Tang Fan arrange a female role, even if it was not a CP, I would have to be ambiguous; I think it was broadcast because of Chen Qing, and the producers found that it would be better not to have a female role to attract audiences, at least not She will be powdered by the original book like Chen Qingling did back then, so the female character disappeared silently from the back like a flat tire. More importantly, I don't know why this adaptation is positioned as a light comedy. This positioning really makes me have three lines. Tang Fan is not just a foodie! After watching a few episodes, I gave up the drama, and the Douban score is almost as low as mine. What a pity.
