The Fate of Fireworks——Comment on Wen Yu's 'Please Forgive Me'
"Please Forgive Me" first attracted me to the author's pseudonym, Wen Yu, who seemed to be a very quiet girl.
Then there is the word count. A work of more than 100,000 words is the least among the works recommended this time. I admit, there is an element of trickery. During the Spring Festival, there are many chores and I don’t have a lot of time to savor an article carefully.
Works of hundreds of thousands of words.
But I was wrong. After reading "Please Forgive Me" for the first time, it happened to be the New Year's Eve. I had one afternoon and could not write a single word in front of Wen Yu's words that were either clear or exciting.
On the third day of the Lunar New Year, as usual, the family would drive to the countryside to worship their ancestors; in the evening, they drank some wine and wandered among the fields in the countryside.
There are no dim lights in the city in the countryside. When I was young, I often went back here to live for a while during the summer vacation. Many people still have no impression, they only know that they are relatives. Even in the dark, I will greet everyone I meet cordially:
came back?
Come sit inside for a while?
Do you remember the time you fell off the back of a cow as a child?
It was then that I realized that the world written by Wen Yu was too cold, and what it lacked was the care and understanding between people.
The writing skills of "Please Forgive Me" are very solid, concise and plain, almost line drawing. Wen Yu shows a "world where no one is wrong". Under the crazy hype of the Internet and the media, the final result is the destruction of two lives.
.
No one is wrong, and no one is proven right.
Throughout the text, Wen Yu rarely describes the appearance and personality of the characters. He uses the development of events to make calculations, and each vivid image naturally jumps into the reader's heart. This is due to the author's skill.
In the city, under the premise of modern values and self-realization, the relationship between people is so simple that the choice of interests is the only criterion. Maybe this is not Wen Yu’s original intention, but what she shows is such a cold heart.
world.
Chen Ruoxi VS Ye Qiulan are a pair of opponents who have never met before.
As a senior reporter, Chen Ruoxi's responsibility is to hype. Her job is to discover various newsworthy events, and her personal value is enhanced through the hype.
Chen Ruoxi is also the most successful character portrayed in this article. From the beginning, she accidentally discovered the source of speculation - a beautiful woman refused to give up her seat to an old man on the bus. In the process, she gradually added fuel to the flames, and in the end, she drank the bitter pill. Wen Yu's writing gave Chen Ruoxi
Rich layering.
In comparison, Ye Qiulan is a bit pale. She is the victim. The incident started with Ye Qiulan being diagnosed with a terminal illness and climaxed with her death, but it did not end with her death.
Ye Qiulan is a brilliant firework, seemingly born for that moment of brilliance. It can be said that her revenge on Chen Ruoxi is unnecessary; without this hype initiated by Chen Ruoxi, Ye Qiulan is destined to be alone and quietly
I left this world without even a chance to be ignited and release my brilliance.
The male lead, Yang Shoucheng, is an honest man and Chen Ruoxi's live-in boyfriend. It can only be said that he is a big kid; but Yang Shoucheng's childlike simplicity is indeed the only bright spot in this article.
It is hard to imagine that a female author named Wen Yu could write a male world full of conspiracies and cruel forest laws.
Ye Qiulan's boss Shen Liushu, as a successful man who has an ambiguous relationship with his beautiful secretary, used this publicity to achieve his goal of abandoning his first wife.
As Chen Ruoxi's successor, Shen Liushu was behind the hype, until he pulled Chen Ruoxi off the altar and into the center of the whirlpool.
As for Shen Liushu's description, Wen Yu's facial makeup treatment is the same as that of several other supporting characters; however, it is very abnormal that there are so many facial makeup around us for Wen Yu to choose from.
Wen Yizaidao is not the ideal of our generation. Originally, Lu Tianming, another face in "Please Forgive Me", could have some light of humanity, but Wen Yu cruelly dragged him into the sequence of conspirators.
Lu Tianming is Ye Qiulan's ex-boyfriend, a successful doctor, and the person who discovered Ye Qiulan's terminal illness; when his fragile and beautiful life was about to disappear, he did not do much; after Ye Qiulan's death, Lu Tianming's choice It was revenge, and the target turned out to be Boss Shen’s wife. This was something I could never have imagined.
Maybe Wen Yu wanted to express a world of steel, but in the countryside, feeling the gentle pace of life, he thought of another problem.
For the Chinese, ancestor worship and the Spring Festival are holidays to enjoy family affection and relax the spirit; people are tolerant and kind in front of their relatives, and even neighbors who usually have conflicts will turn into a smile in the countryside with the help of the Spring Festival. .
But there is no Spring Festival in the online world, and this opportunity for nostalgia and reconciliation is also lacking in the city.
Back in the city, it was already the night of the fifth day of the Lunar New Year.
Seeing the gorgeous lights making the stars in the sky gradually become thinner, seeing bunches of fireworks rising in the night sky that is no longer pure, I just hope that "Please Forgive Me" is really a fiction written by Wen Yu.
The destiny of fireworks in the city is to burn yourself, not necessarily to illuminate others.
