Huanyan is a brand-new story, but its plot setting is also reminiscent of the corresponding historical basis. For example, the recurring Soviet area in the play refers to the southern Jiangxi Soviet area. Although there was a Soviet area at that time, outside the Soviet area, squires and local tyrants were rampant, and many ordinary people were still living in dire straits. There are many metaphorical fragments in the play, which show the depth of observation of the times.

Evaluation of "Happy Face" Series
In many dramas of that era, smiling is undoubtedly different. This work, written and directed by Bing Xu, jumped out of the traditional creative pattern, uniquely combined with genre characteristics such as road films and chronological dramas, explored a brand-new legendary expression, and achieved a bold upgrade in creative techniques and vision.
Happy Face is innovative in form, full in story and stereoscopic in group images. In addition to this series of highlights, what is more worthy of recognition is the profound and lofty ideas embodied in the works. The twists and turns of the "trip to protect gold" in this work are not only adventure and excitement, but also a metaphor for pursuing faith.
