Recently, the professional cool drama "News Queen" almost dominated the screen.
Many people call out:I haven't watched such a cool professional drama for many years!
There is no love, no mud and water, each episode is fast to the rhythm of flying, fierce verbal battles, open and secret battles.
More importantly, the female group portraits and female perspectives of this drama have made many female ** feel excited and found professional role models.
Indeed, the four heroines of this drama: Wen Huixin, Zhang Jiayan, Xu Shiqing, and Xu Xiaowei are not only smart, but also have distinct personalities, and their actions are full of topicality, so it's no wonder that everyone watches them fight with relish.
The personality characteristics of these four heroines correspond to the four realms of women in the workplaceTheir respective ways of dealing with work and attitudes inadvertently expose their deep-seated weaknesses and desires.
For modern working women, career development is part of desireHow you control your career will also control a part of the outer world.
Let's take a look at how the four of them are in terms of controlling the world and dealing with desires
The first realm
Xu Xiaowei: How long can you go on the road of clinging to others?
At a glance, Xiaowei may be the weakest among them, not only is she pitiful, but she also suffers from depression and is prone to emotional breakdowns.
As the plot is revealed, we see that the root behind it is that she thinks her family of origin is bad.
Xiaowei's mother earned money for Xiaowei's school by picking up garbage, so she felt inferior and didn't dare to admit her mother in front of her classmates.
She feared being ridiculed, but said she attached her value to her mother's profession, and she felt inferior when she picked up garbage.
Therefore, deep in Xiaowei's heart, she does not believe in her own strength, she believes or hopes to be able to "lean against the tree to enjoy the shade":Find a strong person to rely on, listen to her words, only if this person is very capable, she feels that she is also strong.
This is actually closer to the traditional woman's line of thought:In the past, many people, whether housewives or working women, believed that better resources could only be obtained by relying on men or stronger authorities.
There is an old saying: "Men control the world, women control men", and such women are probably believers in this saying.
Indeed, there have been many women who have succeeded in this regard in the pastBecause in the past, when the patriarchal culture was more influential and deeper, this was indeed an important way for women to control their own destiny.
With the development of the times, more and more women have begun to grow, awaken, and grow their own strength, so the dependent are no longer limited to gender.
Just like Xiaowei, she is clearly attached to Wen Huixin in the play, and secretly she is attached to the male George.
This is actually an interesting phenomenon, it is similar to the situation of a "daughter" in a family: she is tired of being with her mother every day, but she actually wants to be closer to her father in her heart.
But no matter who she approaches or who she chooses, she is just a "daughter" after allShe can't get rid of a weak, lowly position, she must be obedient, and even use deception to curry favor on both sides and attack secretly at the same time.
In the workplace, such people dare not surpass the leader in their hearts, are tired of coping with the requirements, review, and supervision of the leader, rarely have their own ideas, and will not take the initiative to think and communicate.
So we will see that although Xiaowei is good-looking, her professional ability is not badBut she lacks inner strength and is bent on attachment, and can only be reduced to a deputy, a tool and a foil.
People like her in the workplace will always feel that their fate is at the mercy and control of others, and they will be in turmoil.
The road of attachment may go smoothly for a while, but it is not your own path after all.
The second realm
Xu Shiqing: Bold and thick-skinned, dare to gamble and win
Xu Shiqing was extremely unflattering at first, and many audiences, especially women, probably didn't like her very much, because she was too flamboyant and high-profile, with the arrogance of "The old lady is the most beautiful, you are the oldest" written on her face, and she didn't hide it at all.
It can be seen that people want to pump her.
But actually the further back you look, the more you'll like the person.
Especially when the news of the death of the famous person Zheng Bo was unconfirmed, no one dared to report the news, and even when Sister Wen's descendants were cowering, only she stepped forward and took all the risks by herself.
A person who is "bad" and knows very well what he wants, whether it is a man or a woman, will actually make people love and admire in the end.
First,A person who is "bad" in the light does not need you to be wary of her;
Second,The way she releases her desires and strives to satisfy them makes many people who suppress their desires envious, and they seem to have completed some kind of desire satisfaction for themselves.
is also jumping and moving between the two leaders of Wen Huixin and George, Xu Shiqing's feeling is completely different from Xu Xiaowei, she is not the obedient and passive "daughter", but a more equal and active collaborator posture:Which of you is more beneficial to the old lady, the old lady will follow.
What many women lack in the workplace is such a kind of inner spirit to treat leaders.
It's not that you really have to be very arrogant to the leader on the surface, or you have to put on an equal posture, but you are convinced in your heartI am very valuable, and the leaders need me very much.
Straighten that posture and think again:How to get the leader to meet my needs, how to achieve a win-win situation through mutual benefit.
It's a mature, adult workplace mentality.
In addition, Xu Shiqing's "boldness" is also an important quality in an important workplace:Dare to embrace uncertainty.
Sure touching everyone wants, and it is also the goal that everyone chases. However, sometimes the real difference between victory and defeat in the last mile is not how to make things more certain, but whether you dare to embrace uncertainty.
It sounds like a gambler's mentality, but it's not all, because we have to recognize one fact that is
There is far more uncertainty in this world than certainty, and once you have the energy to deload the uncertainty in your heart, it means that you have many fewer limitations than others, and you have many more opportunities than others.
A person's ability to load uncertainty means that she is prepared if the results are not satisfactoryShe had the strength to hold on to the uncertainty.
Compared with the traditional understanding that women's work first needs "stability", Xu Shiqing's existence is a bold challenge and breakthrough, and has become a dazzling color in the workplace.
The third realm
Zhang Jiayan: Rely on strength to gain "independence".
If Xu Shiqing's strength is fearlessness, then her weakness is not nothing, that is, she is sometimes too obsessed with the purpose of "going to the news", and does not consider the overall situation, such as making the news entertainment.
Her personal goals are very practical, but in terms of the depth and height of her career development, the pattern is not enough, and her skills are not deep.
can only be a fierce general, and cannot become a prince.
Zhang Jiayan is different, she is the third force independent of Wen Huixin and George.
Think about who can walk independently between these two forces?There must be a few brushes.
What does Zhang Jiayan rely on?In addition to excellent professional ability and strong sense of professional belief, the independence and strength of personality are the background color.
If Xu Xiaowei is a strong person who relies on the strong, Xu Shiqing is a strong person in cooperation, and Zhang Jiayan dares to "fight against the two strong people".Her heart has reached another level: I am the strongest.
In the workplace, people often have a misconception:
If I become independent, will I become a loner, or if I don't choose to take sides, I will be abandoned by the leaders, or even by the group forces they lead.
This fear exists not only in the workplace, but also in the youth group, especially among girls who are good at relationship management, many people have to choose to take sides because they are afraid of being abandoned and bullied if they do not stand in line.
And the value and significance of Zhang Jiayan's existence is to tell us:You are independent, and you can also be tough, as long as you have the strength.
It is said that Zhang Jiayan began to blacken in the second half of the play, began to do whatever it takes, and the dragon-slaying boy eventually became an evil dragon.
In addition to the drama, this setting also has an absurd truth:People with strength and ideals like Zhang Jiayan actually need to be wary of being too pure.
Or rather, when she pursues an extreme not to engage in relationships and not to fight for power, only to do things, actuallyThe first is not in line with reality, and the second is also suppressed the pursuit of desire in her heartAnd if it is suppressed too harshly and unnoticed, it will be triggered continuously in some events, and finally it will be strong**.
In the early days, Jiayan wanted to be a brand-new "new working woman" who did not rely on any relationship and did not participate in "Gong Dou", but this is a utopia after all.
Where there are people, there will be rivers and lakes, power struggles, or to put it more neutrally:Relationships are an integral part of the workplace.
People in the rivers and lakes, sometimes the tree wants to be quiet and the wind does not stop, rather than escaping, it is better to face, it is better to think about how to get along with this inevitable game rules.
The fourth realm
Wen Huixin: What kind of state can be counted as a "king"?
The "king" of the title of the play "News Queen", some people say that it refers to Wen Huixin, and some people say that it refers to all the working women in it.
In my opinion, both are true, and most likely there is no essential difference between the two:
Because of Wen Huixin,She is the supreme example of integrating the brilliance of all the women in the play and being able to use it flexibly, advancing and retreating freely.
She has Xu Shiqing's "bravery", and has more pattern and vision than her;
She has Zhang Jiayan's professionalism and dedication, and she has more exquisite means than her;
And Xiaowei's skills of greeting the superior, she is not bad, and she is happy to accompany Mrs. Fang, but her essence is to understand the rules, not to blindly please.
Some people only pay attention to her coolness, and think that she is very cool to scare people, and she uses her strength to silence others at critical moments, even if others want to use all kinds of small yin to harm her, such as doing tricks on the teleprompter during the live broadcast, she can also turn the tide with her super memory and professional sensitivity.
She is very strict with her subordinates, and sometimes she is so cold that she is not approachable.
Of course, she also loves power, and she never hides it, and she will do her best to fight George to the end.
She has a very "rigid" side and has stepped into the realm of traditional male power.
But she's not just that, she also has the flexibility and flexibility of feminine strength:
After she scolded Xiaowei, she would also be gentle when she collapsed;
She made difficult demands on the newcomer Liu Yan, and she would also have tears in her eyes when she learned that the other party was risking life and death
She can threaten the interviewee to achieve her goal, but in the end, all parties will not lose anything, and everyone will be happy.
She is not a perfect person without flaws, but she is a more complete person.
The difference between completeness and perfection is that perfection does not allow for shortcomings, whereas completeness should contain shortcomings.
She is not a person who can accurately control the overall situation every time, but she is a person who can cope with all kinds of sudden uncertainties at any time.
People always desire that career idols are perfect, and those who feel that they can control everything are the winners in life, and Wen Huixin personally demonstrates what is called the growth of a "king" and how to grow into a "king" state:
It's not that I've never lost or missed, but in the midst of stumbles and ups and downs, I always have a clear goal, and I am firmly moving towards that more flexible and complete self, and I smile calmly and walk elegantly.
Finally, let's talk about the newcomer Liu Yan, some people say that she is the former Wen Huixin, but I think she is a symbol of the "original intention" of everyone's workplace.
She can develop into Xu Xiaowei, Xu Shiqing, Zhang Jiayan, or Wen Huixin, she has infinite possibilities, maybe when she continues to step through one realm after another, she finally walks out of a new realm called "Liu Yan".
Therefore, no matter what realm you are in, "being brave and being yourself" is already precious.
How to "be brave and be yourself" and do "self" better?
Here, I sincerely recommend it to youTeacher Lu Yiling's "Be Brave and Be Yourself" experience campLet's get to know ourselves together and find the direction we want to work for.
I hope that every woman will step out of the new realm of her own career and become the "king" in her own career field.
