There are series that at first are an explosion of success, but are nothing more than a meteor whose light goes out at the end of its trajectory. TSOPG is a series that delved into the history of China, put the people in focus instead of the recurrent nobility, and shed light on the fight for women's empowerment, for the recognition of their value, connecting past struggles with present struggles. There is a utility in the TSOPG plot that leaves a legacy. This is what makes a work eternal. The rest is mere entertainment that will soon be forgotten. Arguing with those who don't see this is like discussing the sex of angels. Use your energy in productive exchanges that bring you joy.
Today is ZLS's birthday, however, she was the one who gave us a gift...
The historical importance of TSOPG and the role of women:
1 Relevant points: the History of Jewelry Commerce in China, affirmation of women. Poetry without filter and the perverse world as sides of the same coin.
2 It's a remarkable series that has value as a reproduction of Chinese History, inspires and connects with the struggle of women in today's world.
3 To play this spectacular character, there could be no other actress: ZLS and DW are a perfect symbiosis.
4 Two aspects catch my attention in this series: its value as a faithful reproduction of a historical period and the focus on the lower classes of workers, especially on women's struggle for survival, autonomy and recognition.
5 TSOPG, is an adaptation of the novel "Kun Shan Yu Qian Zhuan", by Tan Tian Yin
6 TSPG is based on works such as the "Historical Atlas of China" and shows in detail the Silk Road in the Tang Dynasty.
7 It is a privilege to relive this historical period exactly as it was. DW is a character placed within the Ancient History of the Jewelry Trade in China, a real world with which she interacts: this is genius.
8 The vast emotional universe, full of tensions that oscillate between brutality and sweetness, is balanced and well articulated.
9 All the characters are solid in their characterization.The story progresses with speed and coherence. The visuals are stunning.
10 With undeniable self-esteem and determination, DW uses brutalities and setbacks as leverage to regain her own identity and assert herself as a successful and prominent woman.
11 TSOPG is an inspiring story for women and is in tune with contemporary life, as women's struggle to assert their autonomy, their value, their prominent position in society still persists and is far from being merely fair.
12 DW is an inspiration for us to keep fighting...
They can't accept the fact that she really is a great actress. Every successful drama of ZLS, trolls are there.
No one throws stones at fruitless trees. ZLS has her own shine, she has a life of success ahead of her. In 3 years ZLY will be 40 years old🤭 and ZLS 28-29💃. I can imagine the sadness of these "Shenli" profiles... We are like Shrimp (XXM): wherever ZLS is, we'll be too!
💯💯💯They hate her because she is too good, and not suscesful, especially for her age, how many actors…
Yeahh!!!! Exactly that! Actresses who are currently successful are already over 36-37 years old, and we know that the production of series is increasingly focusing on young actors and audiences. These ridiculous people who come here to degrade this page are fans of actresses in this age group, like Zhao Li Yin. ZLS does its job without belittling anyone, the fury of these fans is exclusively because ZLS is competent and threatens these older actresses...😅
ZHAO LU SI. Yes, she deserves to have every letter of her name capitalized. Ridiculous people appear here to try to diminish her: why are these fools so bothered by this actress?? I'll tell you: It's because this actress, only 25 years old (26 on November 9th), is giving a lesson in acting, she's not just a pretty face, she's pure art, everything about her is expressive and solar, whether for express brutal anguish, or to sketch a fleeting happiness. The dangerous, exhausting underwater scenes are impressive, due to the fight scenes or the beauty of the movements: ZLS literally delved deeply into the character, she is not the pearl girl, she is the pearl herself. DW gives us the greatness of women. Ridiculous people, we don't engage, we report and block. Furthermore, nothing can eclipse the sweet and vibrant light of ZLS, because it is hers, it is in her, like a gift of life.
Hi, Razi! Thank you very much for your sensitive comment! It's realy a joy to know that the article fulfills its…
Hi, Not Your Oppa! Good to see you again! The information I gave, making an analogy to the formation of a word in Western languages (like a brick, a single block) is given by translators who translate Mandarin into other languages. The difficulty and the challenge is precisely the combination of the different meanings according to the composition of its sinograms (Hanzi), can be read in different ways, as it represents concepts, based on the imitation of shapes, an idea through symbols, combinations of pictograms to form a third meaning, in addition of semantic-phonetic characters that combine form and sound. We don't have this type of structures in Western languages and we also don't need to differentiate with the tonality (ascending or descending) a word written in the same way, but with different meanings. Mandarin is a tonal language. The same word with two meanings is differentiated by the ascending or descending tone. All languages have their musicality, intonation, accent. Mandarin uses tone, tonality, to distinguish two identical words. Tonality and intonation are distinct concepts within languages.https://www.britishcouncil.org/voices-magazine/chinese-complex-tones-characters-streamlined-grammar
Hi, Not Your Oppa! Thanks a lot for your comment. About the tree: The Double has many non-explicit narratives.…
Hey, Not Your Opa! Here we go! About Salvador Dalí: you must consider that many people pass through here, the information is not specifically for a single person, but for everyone who can read it, mentioning a person and identifying that person is merely a pattern. We are all free to express our perceptions, there is no single truth, all views are welcome, contradiction enriches the debate. Art depends exactly on boldness. The Double has an epic ending, it escaped the banal, it presented us with that gallop in the immensity, evoking the ancient scroll paintings. The white horse was not an aesthetic option, but a symbolic one, Duke Su promises to return crowned by triumph, the white horse, with all its range of symbols, sends this message, of the hero who returns home victorious.
Hi, Not Your Oppa! Thanks a lot for your comment. About the tree: The Double has many non-explicit narratives.…
Hi, Not Your Oppa! Good to see you here again. Thanks a lot for your kind words. About the plum tree: the national flower of the Republic of China was officially designated as the plum blossom by the Executive Yuan of the Republic of China on 21 July 1964, precisely because it means resilience, overcoming, hope, which defines the history of the Chinese people, so, yes, they recognize the meaning of the plum tree. It is a civilization over 5,000 years old. The people preserve ancient symbols, certain colors (as red), and customs until today, for them it is very natural. The white horse has a strong symbolism throughout Asia, it is not a particular issue in China. It is not only linked to Buddha, it's before Buddhism entered China (2nd and 3rd centuries AD), as a symbol associated with gods and warrior heroes, representing freedom, strength, power, perseverance, imagination. If you search on Google about white horses in Asian painting, you'll see a multitude of paintings from various countries depicting white horses. And, yes, what a beautiful scene you evoke! About XFF: she isn't there as a goddess, but as someone who went through a dramatic experience and narrates her pain and the horror experienced through music. It's a surrealist scene, like a painting by Salvador Dali (Spanish surrealist painter, 1904-1989). It's a way of representing something abstract, intangible in images. Consider the scene a poetic license that should not be analyzed through the lens of realism. Creating a scene like this allows us to delve into another dimension of life, a non-material dimension, a spiritual dimension. Even though I have this aesthetic view of the scene, I respect what you feel and think. About the bleeding and the fact that she looked fine after the competition. Minor issues, unimportant to the plot, in the context of a series/film, aren't explained, they are up to our deduction. This avoids losing focus on what really matters, at the same time saving the actors from unnecessary stress. It's amazing to exchange these perceptions with you, you are a sensitive person with a wonderful critical sense. Questioning is the basis of knowledge and the path to new experiences and breaking paradigms! Thanks a lot once again!
I loved The Double! This article makes me love it even more thanks to all the cultural allusions and symbolisms…
Hi, Razi! Thank you very much for your sensitive comment! It's realy a joy to know that the article fulfills its function of deepening knowledge and refining aesthetic, artistic and cultural perception. The Double is indeed a visual, cultural and philosophical experience to be revisited, you're right, we have an even greater enchantment when we rewatch it. Chinese cdramas/films are a dive into 5,000 years of history. Chinese civilization is fascinating and I want to understand and absorb it better so much that I am studying Mandarin: how much beauty in this language, its structure and complexity reveals a thought that is articulated philosophically. While words in Western languages are like defined bricks, with defined meanings and sounds, in Mandarin they are fluid and tonal, they acquire many meanings according to the composition of their sinograms (Hanzi), it is a pictographic system, indicating that the drawing is their origin. One of its characteristics is that it can be read in different ways, as it represents concepts, based on the imitation of shapes (pictograms), of an idea through symbols, combinations of pictograms to form a third meaning, in addition to phonetic loans to indicate words with the same sound but with different meanings, and semantic-phonetic characters that combine form and sound. As you can see, the language of a people has a philosophical side, it is a way of feeling, thinking, creating, imagining, conceptualizing. Mandarin gives us the dimension of Chinese art. Understanding this structure leads us to better enjoy its art of poetry. Thank you very much once again!
And that's what I love about Chinese historical dramas. The rich tapestry of symbolism, art, even the esoteric…
Hi, Val W! Good to see you here! Thanks a lot for your comment! Yes! China is this universe full of refined art, philosophy, poetry, mystic, rites, symbolism. Cdramas are wonderful opportunities to dive into time, it's a meeting with Beauty, subtlety, legends and mythologies full of stories that mirror our human condition, our dreams and passions, as you beautifully say “the esoteric beauty of life, love, hate, revenge, and back to forgiveness and regret. Full circle." Thank you so much for sharing your sensitive insights! Peace ❤️
