In the complex jungle of officialdom, "In the Name of the People" has attracted wide attention from the audience with its wonderful plot and profound character creation. However, among the second generation of officials everywhere, there is a character that has aroused the audience's conflicting feelings, and that is Zhong Xiaoai. She has a prominent background and a noble status, but she is difficult to please in the hearts of the audience. What is the reason why Zhong Xiaoai is unique in this place of power and scheming and has become the only controversial second-generation official?
At the Jingzhou Anti-Corruption Bureau, a bloody power war began. In this officialdom, Zhong Xiaoai is a high-profile female director. Her father's prominence has given her a thriving place in the workplace, with endless resources and support.
Zhong Xiaoai, born in a second-generation official family, has lived in an atmosphere of political intrigue since she was a child. Her father's prominence exposed her to the brutality of political struggle at an early age. However, she is not a spoiled eldest lady, but a woman with a strong will. The tenacity and decisiveness she cultivated since she was a child have made her stand out in the workplace.
Hou Liangping, a protagonist who is great and upright, and the principle of party spirit is in stark contrast to Zhong Xiaoai. Their relationship is not as sweet as sugar, but full of subtle suspension. In officialdom, they often talk about life in an official tone, joke with a shelf, and seem to interpret the relationship between husband and wife as a colleague. This relationship makes the viewer wonder why the couple seems so distant
In the development of the plot, it is difficult for the audience to ignore some disliked plots of Hou Liangping and Zhong Xiaoai. Zhong Xiaoai always talks about anti-corruption and clean government, showing his excessive pursuit of power and status. Her attitude towards Qi Tongwei was also indifferent, and she seemed to lack sympathy for the self-made young man. This makes the audience's impression of her even more negative.
The reason why the audience doesn't like Zhong Xiaoai may be the director's intention. In "In the Name of the People", the director reinforces the cruelty of the power struggle in the jungle of officialdom by portraying the image of Zhong Xiaoai as arrogant and power-seeking. This may be the director's intention, through Zhong Xiaoai's image, to highlight the ugly side of officialdom.
The reason why the audience dislikes Zhong Xiaoai may be related to her background and personality. As a second-generation official, she has formed an overly arrogant character under the influence of her family. Her desire for power and her overemphasis on her status make it difficult for her to become a likable character in the hearts of the audience.
Although Zhong Xiaoai became a controversial character in "In the Name of the People", it was her presence that added more twists and depths to the plot. Her arrogance and power struggle make the audience more deeply appreciate the dark side of officialdom. Perhaps, Zhong Xiaoai is not likable, but she is a unique light in this officialdom jungle, which is impossible to ignore.
