Why did "Meet Wang Lichuan" become one of the rare masterpieces of Chinese romance dramas?

The Eight Great Classics became Four Great Classics because in modern times, the publishing house was the first to publish these four works as a series of "Four Great Classics", and they received a huge amount of publication and market feedback. Later, other publishing houses followed suit and gradually formed a customary title. Before this, there were six famous novels and seven famous novels in the ancient Chinese literary world. However, after the founding of the People's Republic of China, in order to improve the cultural quality of the people, the publishing house selected six novels from many ancient books. Four of them were more popular and recognized, so they gradually evolved into the four famous novels today. This change was the result of market selection, not human intervention.

Journey to the West and Investiture of the Gods were both classic works of ancient Chinese novels, but their status and influence were somewhat different. Journey to the West is regarded as one of the Four Great Chinese Classics because it is a legendary story about Tang Sanzang and his disciples who went to the West to seek scriptures. It tells the story of the difficulties and dangers they encountered on their journey to the West and their struggles with various monsters and demons. This story was full of thrilling plots and deep human thinking, with extremely high literary and artistic value. In addition, Journey to the West also became an important part of Chinese traditional culture, which had a profound impact on the inheritance and development of Chinese culture. In contrast, although Investiture of the Gods was also a classic novel, its story background and character image were relatively simple. It mainly told the story of the Investiture of the Gods in the Shang and Zhou Dynasties. This story lacked the imaginative and mysterious description in Journey to the West, nor did it have the deep human thinking in Journey to the West. Therefore, although the Investiture of the Gods was also an excellent novel, it was not as widely accepted and respected as Journey to the West, nor did it become one of the classics in Chinese culture. The reason why Journey to the West became one of the Four Great Masterpieces was that it had extremely high literary and artistic value, and it also became an important part of Chinese traditional culture. Although Investiture of the Gods was also an excellent novel, its status and influence in literature were not as good as Journey to the West.

Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio was an important collection of novels in the history of Chinese literature, known as the pinnacle of ancient Chinese novels. However, although it was an excellent literary work, it was not officially one of the "four great masterpieces" mainly because of the following reasons: The content of Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio is rather dark, describing the stories of various ghosts and demons. These stories often conflict with human morality and ethics, and it is difficult to arouse people's resonance. "Journey to the West,""Water Margins,""Dream of the Red Chamber" described the story of justice defeating evil, heroes defeating the devil. These stories were more in line with the values of traditional Chinese culture, so they were more easily accepted and loved by people. Strange Tales from a Lonely Studio was short and simple in structure, so it was difficult to create a deep description of the historical and social background like Journey to the West and Outlaws of the Marsh. It also lacked the emotional description and character creation like Dream of the Red Chamber. Therefore, its influence was not as extensive and far-reaching as that of Journey to the West, Water Margins, and Dream of the Red Chamber. The characters in Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio are abstract and difficult to resonate with. The relationship between the characters and the plot in the story are also complicated and difficult for the readers to understand and remember. In contrast, Journey to the West, Water Margins, and Dream of the Red Chamber had clear characters and simple plots that were easier to remember and pass down. To sum up, although Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio is an excellent literary work, due to its dark content, short length, abstract characters and other reasons, it has not been officially listed as the "Four Great Masterpieces". This is also because it does not conform to the values and aesthetic tastes of traditional Chinese culture.

" Meeting Wang Lichuan " was adapted from the novel " The Past of Lichuan " by Electric Wires.

" Meeting Wang Lichuan " was a fictional novel about the love story between the female lead Xie Xiaoqiu and the male lead Wang Lichuan. There was no official confirmation as to whether their story was true or not. However, according to the plot and character creation of the novel, it could be speculated that their story might have been created by real people. Wang Lichuan had no real life archetype. He was a fictional character from China. The creation of Wang Lichuan's archetype may have referred to Wang Lichuan's life story, personality characteristics, and cultural background to better display the characters in the novel.
