The story seems to be told vividly and vividly. Award-winning works. From the story point of view, there are some shortcomings in the main plot. For example, the guests of Chu Diju will move to Shangsinyuan, the development of the couple is too smooth and simple, etc. The depth of character exploration is not enough; the writing is too fluid. Is it because the author cannot integrate his own story into the article? Is it suitable for a script?
