Depressive screenwriter.

Chapter 108 Heartache
Su Xiaoxiao has actually discovered this since the show started airing in April.

The plot is mainly divided into three parts.

Music competition section.

Daily life on campus.

Then there is the flashback section that appears in almost every episode.

The main plot is definitely the music competition and the emotional development between the male protagonist and Miyazono Kaoru.

The side storyline is about the supporting actress Tsubaki Sawabe's unrequited love for Kousei Arima in the campus plot.

The plot in the flashback part supplements the background of the previous two.

Since the show started airing in April, the plot that makes Su Xiaoxiao feel most uncomfortable is Sawabe Tsubaki's plot.

She has a crush on Kousei Arima and hopes he will return to music.

But in the end, I found out
It was his classmate Kaoru Miyazono who made Kousei Arima return to the path of music.

Moreover, during this process, Kousei Arima fell deeply in love with Kaoru Miyazono.

And she
Although she knows this, she can't let it go and can't let it go. She can't be a bad woman and take the lead over Miyazono Kaoru, but she also can't bear to see her childhood sweethearts Arima Kousei and Miyazono Kaoru gradually get closer.

TV dramas in the Xia country rarely portray the psychology of loser supporting characters.

In other words, the loser second female character in Xiaguo’s romance TV dramas is often the villain who does all kinds of bad things and cannot arouse the audience’s sympathy.

But April is different. From the beginning of the show to now, the experience of the character Tsubaki Sawabe is so real that Su Xiaoxiao wants to cry.

You cannot get what you want but are unwilling to give up. You think there is hope if you persist. But in fact, you know clearly that you are just deceiving yourself.

Until the beginning of episode 8.
She had clearly made up her mind to give up her feelings for Arima Kousei before agreeing to the confession of the school senior, but in the end she found that she couldn't forget him at all, and this was actually unfair to the senior who liked her.

Their brief relationship was limited to going to school and going home together.

Watch the scene where Sawabe Tsubaki covers her face in pain after the breakup.

Su Xiaoxiao felt her nose sour.

Sawabe Tsubaki is definitely not sad about breaking up with her senior.

Instead, she was sad that she couldn't forget Arima Kousei, and at the same time, she hurt another person who liked her, and she felt regretful about herself.

"There's nothing I can do. It's because your enemy is Miyazono Kaoru! If Igawa Emi came to compete with Miyazono Kaoru, I think there would still be a chance. But you, you know nothing about music, how can you squeeze into Arima Kousei's musical world?" Su Xiaoxiao thought to herself.

The plot continues to advance.

Kousei Arima decided to start his musical life again, and he did not neglect practice, competition, and study.

But at the same time, while dealing with complicated academic work and music competitions.

The plot is interspersed with Kousei Arima meeting Nagi Aiza, the sister of the Aiza samurai. A new character is unlocked in this episode, but she only makes an appearance in this episode.

In the middle of the eighth episode, Kousei Arima finally spoke to Kaoru Miyazono.

From the time she was hospitalized due to illness in the last episode to this episode till now, the plot has not explained her illness, nor when she will be discharged from the hospital.

Just through her lively voice on the phone, Su Xiaoxiao felt that she seemed to be fine.

But that's all it seems.

After finishing her phone call with Kousei Arima, Kaoru Miyazono was humming happily in the hospital corridor.

But the next second, her legs seemed to have no strength and she knelt down instantly.

Can't use any strength.

No matter how hard she struggled, she couldn't even stand up.

I tried to stand up by holding the handrail in the hospital corridor, but I was unable to do so.

[Stand up, you are my legs! Stand up! ]

The scene where Miyazono Kaori is crying and beating her legs again and again in the dimly lit hospital corridor late at night.

This was in contrast to the scene a minute ago where she was talking to Arima Kousei in a lively voice.

The character of Miyazono Kaori has been lively and cute since her debut, and she has the kind of personality that believes that as long as I want my dreams to come true.

But in fact, this is the first time that a TV series has shown the scene of her being alone, helpless and emotionally out of control in the hospital while she is sick, to viewers like Su Xiaoxiao.

It was like a needle piercing the heart.

Su Xiaoxiao already felt the pain.

The background music became a little sad.

Arima Kousei and Miyazono Kaoru met in April when the cherry blossoms were in full bloom.

But when Miyazono Kaoru was discharged from the hospital and appeared in front of Arima Kousei again, it was the season when red maple leaves were falling.

The maple leaves slowly fell from the sky, and the girl was still smiling, waiting for Kousei Arima on the road that he had to take to go home.

Not a trace of anxiety or sadness was revealed.

She simply used a smile to dispel the boy's concerns about her condition.

[Hey, where's Watari-kun? I'm waiting for him here! ]

Miyazono Kaoru said with a smile.

but.
This is a lie.

Su Xiaoxiao could feel that Miyazono Kaoru was waiting for Arima Kousei here!
In other words, anyone who watches this drama carefully will understand that Miyazono Kaori definitely does not like Arima Kousei, but that good friend.

Why is she saying this in a panic?
[Watari should be in the classroom!] said Arima Kousei.

[Then you can be a substitute! That's all you need. ]

Miyazono Kaoru looked at the boy and a smile appeared on the corner of her lips.

Such a conversation had happened before, and at that time Su Xiaoxiao thought that Miyazono Kaoru was really waiting for Watari Ryota.

Now it seems that it is just looking for an excuse.

I also accompanied her shopping, eating delicious food, and buying toys and dolls.

Then, when they were having fun, Miyazono Kaoru couldn't even hold the juice bottle in her hand, and it fell to the ground.

At night, the boy rode a bicycle with the girl.

Under the starry sky, the girl hugged the boy and shed silent tears on the back seat of the bicycle
This deeply hurt a large group of April fans, including Su Xiaoxiao.

"Hey, you old thief Su Yan. What's going on with the atmosphere in this episode?" Su Xiaoxiao suddenly became very panicked.

To judge whether a play is a tragedy, you have to see whether the characters have any flag-setting behavior before the final tragedy occurs.

For example, if a person is about to die, the best thing he can do is to find someone he likes and experience as many things he likes as possible.

Did Miyazono Kaoru sneak out of the hospital and make Arima Kousei skip his piano lesson just to get Arima Kousei to accompany her shopping, window shopping, and night bike riding?
Miyazono Kaoru clearly sees Arima Kousei's musical journey like this, how could she be so selfish?

Unless she has realized that now is the time to be selfish.

If you are not selfish now, you will never have the chance to do what you like with the person you like in the future.

"No, no, no, don't think too much. The creative ability of old thief Su Yan is even better than that of a veteran drama fan like me. Maybe my series of speculations are all smoke screens thrown by old thief Su Yan." Su Xiaoxiao took a deep breath.

But the plot moves on.

In the hospital, Miyazono Kaoru wanted to pick up her beloved violin, but found that her fingers could not even hold the bow of the violin.

She lay on the hospital bed, covering her face and crying silently.

Then the next day, she greeted Kousei Arima who came to visit her with a smile.

However, she lost control of her emotions when she learned that Kousei Arima had not practiced the piano properly for several days because he was worried about her illness.

The biggest climax of this episode is here.

At night, the hospital became deserted again. The bright moonlight shone into the ward, and Miyazono Kaoru looked out the window with a dazed expression.

At this time, Kousei Arima pushed the door and entered the ward.

Because he was very uneasy.

His mother was like this before she died of illness, sometimes gentle to people and sometimes irritable and angry.

[No, he doesn't look like his mother at all.]

Kousei Arima said this to comfort himself frantically.

But after looking at the look in the eyes of the girl on the hospital bed.

The image of my mother before she died emerged.

[You are such a weirdo! You are here to visit a patient, but you are silent.] Miyazono Kaoru no longer forced herself to smile.

Her pupils looked at the silent, uneasy and panicked boy in the darkness.

She said something that broke the hearts of Su Xiaoxiao and a group of TV drama viewers in Xia Country.

[Will you die with me? ]

The ending theme suddenly sounded.

The sweat on Su Xiaoxiao's palms caused the remote control, which she was holding tightly, to slip out of her hands.

This sudden line shocked Su Xiaoxiao for several seconds.

But then, suicide for love?

What does Miyazono Kaoru mean by this?

Is she directly indicating the severity of her illness, that it has reached the level of death?

Hey, come on.

Su Yan, you old thief, what is the direction of this plot?
Is life and death so trivial in the hands of a screenwriter like you?

Although Miyazono Kaoru is a fictional character.

But she should at least live in your heart first, right?
Are you a human being?
This drama in April never explained what illness Kaoru Miyazono had.

There are too many diseases that correspond to the symptom of weak hands and feet and inability to walk normally.

Many fans with medical knowledge have been frantically looking for corresponding diseases during the broadcast of this episode.

But some of these diseases are very mild and can be cured.

But some diseases are very serious and incurable, and getting them is tantamount to a death sentence.

Many viewers panicked
Before the eighth episode was aired, everyone was expecting Su Yan to use his power as the screenwriter and creator god to easily cure Miyazono Kaoru in this episode.

But if the disease that Miyazono Kaoru suffers from is one of those incurable diseases, then there is no need to think too much about this drama, it is 100% tragic.

In fact, when Su Yan was watching April in his previous life, he frantically searched for what disease Gongyuan Xun had.

But until the story was finished, the original author did not release the specific details.

This is to keep the suspense until the end, so that the audience cannot guess the final outcome of Miyazono Kaoru's life or death.

But this is also the most important reason why Su Yan dared to tell Shinozaki Ikumi that he could shoot a second happy ending.

He and Ikumi Shinozaki are in control of the overall situation of the drama, and they feel confident.

But the fans didn’t!
They were panicked.

Who among those who have watched this drama up to episode 8 has not been healed by the character of Kaori Miyazono?
Now your screenwriter talks about topics like suicide for love, life and death, etc.

Who can accept it?

"Su Yan, you're going too far."

"No, I'm going to give up on this drama. I don't dare to watch it anymore."

"Su Yan, you old thief, please let Miyazono Kaoru's illness be cured in episode 9. Please."

"Yes, let's let the two of them play together again! Arima Kousei has overcome his psychological barriers and can play now. How could you let Miyazono Kaoru fall ill and be unable to play the violin?"

"No, brothers. Miyazono Kaoru's words 'You want to die with me for love' are too destructive. I can't imagine how I would feel if this drama becomes depressing later on."

"Su Yan, the old thief, said that this drama would give all the audience a satisfactory ending. Now this is the life-saving straw. If Su Yan, the old thief, did not lie, Gong Yuanxun's disease will definitely be cured by the end."

"After watching the eighth episode, I began to doubt my life. Why did Su Yan do this? Doesn't he love the characters he wrote at all?"

"Don't jump to conclusions before someone dies. Miyazono Kaoru is just sick, not dead!"

"If Gong Yuan Xun dies, my heart will die too. From now on, I will be the number one Su Yanhei in Xia Country! No one can stop me!"

If a drama does not have any unexpected twists or bizarre plots, its ratings will indeed remain at a certain level and will not rise any further.

But it is obvious that April's drama will give the audience a major twist at almost every stage of the plot.

The foreshadowing in the second episode began to take effect in the seventh episode, and then the eighth episode completely detonated the plot climax.

After the eighth episode of Your Lie in April aired, a wave of abuse against Su Yan was once again triggered on the Internet.

However, the ratings data released by Qingkong TV the next day were real.

4.53%
Following last week's 4.4% viewership ratings, the eighth episode of Your Lie in April reached a new level of viewership.

The audience not only did not decrease but increased.

The work continued to rank second in ratings.

There was a cry of wailing on the Internet, and the screenwriter was scolded by tens of thousands of people.

In reality, the ratings are rising every week.

This strange phenomenon is actually happening.

This is playing with fire on the edge of a knife.

If you are not careful, a work that causes depression will become a work that is condemned by everyone and its rating will be greatly reduced.

No normal screenwriter would dare to do this again and again.

But Su Yan dares to do this in every movie
Moreover, the plot is always controlled within the limit of the audience's tolerance.

Xia Guo's colleagues in the screenwriting industry were stunned.

Su Yan, you really dare!

But what they don't understand is that in Su Yan's previous life, there were many works that were depressing and received a lot of negative reviews from the audience and had poor reputation.

Just like Xia Guo, the show is dancing on the edge of a knife, and if it’s not careful, it will be abandoned by the audience on a large scale.

But April has been tested by the market.

Others think that Su Yan is stubborn, but in fact, all the works that Su Yan has produced are works that have emerged from the tragedies of a group of stubborn people in his previous life and were eventually recognized and deified.

Su Yan knew it very well.
Most of these viewers who cursed him online will definitely not give up on the show until they watch the final ending.

The heated discussions among the audience caused by April's current controversial plot are, to some extent, the audience's spontaneous advertising for April.

There is a limit to the support that Qingkong TV can give to the ratings in April.

April really wants to top the ratings this season.

It depends on the publicity from fans to expand the influence in April and break this limit again.

"It's better to make a bigger fuss."

Su Yan turned off his computer in the middle of the night and thought so in his heart.
