The TV drama market in 2024 can be described as bleak, with one series after another being short-lived, none of which can leave a lasting mark. "Flowers" debuted at the beginning of the year, but the subsequent works such as "Big River 3", "Scout Hero", and "South to North" failed to support the banner of the national drama market, and the desolation was fully revealed.
However, when "Fireworks" brought together three national-level actors, depicted a picture of family affection in modern family life, and expected to become another phenomenal work after "Flowers", it ended gloomily after 20 episodes in a row and failed to make waves in the national drama market.
This drama is based on the life stories of the three sisters of the Meng family, showing various loves, hatreds, and hatreds in contemporary families. Meng Mingwei was disabled for life due to non-standard medication when he was a child, and he had low self-esteem, and all aspects of his life were arranged and controlled by his mother Qiao Haiyun.
However, with the birth of her daughter Li Yijin, her life has added a touch of brilliance, but her mother's excessive control has made her feel suffocated. Meng Yunjing bravely pursues love, but marries a vain and flashy man, and the relationship between husband and wife is in jeopardy. Meng Yi'an, on the other hand, faces a strong personality similar to that of his mother, but does not have the same family support as his mother.
The relationship between the characters in the play is intricate, especially the unusual relationship between 70-year-old Li Chengru and 73-year-old Song Chunli is even more eye-catching. Li Chengru, played by Li Chengru, is Qiao Haiyun's son-in-law, and his relationship with Meng Mingwei in the play is controversial, and his behavior can't help but make people feel indignant. At the same time, Song Chunli's image is more energetic than that of her three daughters, which contrasts sharply with Li Chengru's vitality, almost making people mistakenly think that they are husband and wife.
In the play, the details of the characters' lives also show the economic strength of the Meng family. Their living conditions have long surpassed those of ordinary families, from Meng Mingwei's marriage room to Meng Yunjing's generosity in repairing her mother's grave, all of which reveal their strong financial resources. However, this economic advantage did not bring more happiness to their marriage.
In general, although "Fireworks Family" depicts the fireworks of family life, it fails to really touch people's hearts, probably because of the improper choice of the title of the play, which leads to a gap between the audience's expectations and the actual plot. In order to be recognized by the audience, the work must resonate with the audience, and this drama seems to be out of touch with life and lacks realism. As a result, it may not be able to gain lasting support from its audience.
In conclusion, every excellent film and television work should be close to life and reflect the real situation of ordinary people, so as to resonate with the audience and gain word of mouth. I believe that only in this way can we create a true classic.
