In episode1, the plot of China's dismantling of American satellites appeared. First of all, China does have satellites that can dismantle satellites, but the dismantling of other countries’ satellites during peacetime would be an extremely serious act of aggression. Neither Chuan Emperor nor Guanhai would be able to withstand the pressure of the two parties without making any counterattack. The people in the play, especially the protagonist and the second-in-command, are very sensible and normal people (the protagonist is a little stupid), which creates a serious gap between the magical script and the real characters, making the setting of the play unable to withstand scrutiny , Resulting in a poor look and feel.
"Veep" is a story of a magical script and a magical character. The people are not as stupid as in the play, and the characters are not as crazy as in the play, but it is precisely through exaggeration and magnification of the scandal in the fact that a space for reflection is created. The Nazi doctors, Ben and Amy are almost normal people, but their opinions are often misinterpreted and ignored. All decisions are basically disasters, but magically, they can keep the team moving forward. This is the political movement that Veep wants to express. The absurdity. But SF did not do this. The protagonist team basically solves some surreal problems according to normal human thinking. This not only hurts the reflection space given by the story, but also has a partisan taste, as if I just need to sprinkle a little bit of China. The bad sauce can sell these two slices of bread from 4 years ago. It's a bit too cheap.
In episode10, there was even a plot of China destroying the American colony. Even if the emperor of Sichuan was really asked to make up a reason to find the fault, it would not be so crazy. To compile the story into this one, I feel that it is a show of the screenwriter’s self-rejection. Kneeling on the national flag and burning the national flag have already caused intense controversy across the country. If destroying an American colony cannot trigger a nuclear war, I must have traveled to other parallel universes. Here, cats and dogs coexist harmoniously, and North and South Korea are connected to each other, fighting against the landlords of the United States, China and the Soviet Union for three days.
Maybe there is such a universe, and I am willing to move in.
