What kind of movie is Driving Grandma into the City?

"Going into the city" is one of the themes that TV plays are keen to pay attention to, because it can often reflect all aspects of social changes and record the daily life of the grassroots from one side. For example, the film "Chen Huansheng Entering the City" released in the early days of reform and opening up became a phenomenal film of that year because it truly expressed the emotional and ideological changes of diaosi farmers before and after "entering the city". The family drama "Carrying Grandma into the City", which is being broadcasted by Shandong and Heilongjiang Satellite TV, is obviously more complicated and fresh than "Chen Huansheng into the City" in both background and plot.

The erosion of rural areas by cities is a major trend of economic development in recent years. As more and more people drift from the north to the south and live in big cities widely represented in the north, young rural laborers are increasingly concentrated in cities. In addition, the rapid development of urbanization caused by this has not only reduced the labor force, but also reduced the cultivated land. Villagers went upstairs, and a large amount of rural land was used for infrastructure, and the occupation of rural areas by cities intensified. The rural labor force plummeted and the rural land plummeted. A remarkable performance is the increasing number of empty nesters and left-behind children. Rural children go to school, and the problem of providing for the elderly who are lonely and widowed is becoming more and more prominent. Before the socialized pension is completely solved, it may be a good choice for the elderly and their children to live in groups in cities, but the prerequisite must be that their children have certain economic strength or successful careers. Taking Grandma to the City focuses on the ups and downs of such a small family, behind which are the bits and pieces of social changes, and it can be called a modern life drama with affection. As a North drifter, the author has experienced various things in Beijing. Therefore, "going to the city behind my grandmother's back" at least triggered a strong emotional and psychological shock in my heart.

Undoubtedly, carrying grandma to the city is the most tearful family drama recently. The entanglements and conflicts between two or even three generations in urban and rural areas, between children and the elderly, are cruel and realistic, and are closely related to life, so we can severely poke the lacrimal glands and crying points of the North drifters who have had similar experiences.

Grandma Xipo, with the help of her grandson Gazi, went to the city to find her son whom she had not seen for many years. As a typical rural woman, Xipo is a sensible and kind old man. He went to town not because he had no support for his old age, but for the future of his grandson Gazi, so he went to town to find his son, with little effect. As soon as Gazi and Xipo entered the city, they experienced all kinds of bumps and setbacks. Fortunately, there are still many good people in the world. With everyone's help, Xipo finally found her son, and Gazi also had a relatively stable job. However, trivial contradictions and oppositions have just begun, and the dramatic tension of the plot has also increased and stimulated a little, which has just become one of the sharp tools for the drama to become popular.

When rural people enter cities, one of the biggest challenges is that their lifestyle should keep pace with the times, and their ideas should also change with the situation. In this process of adaptation and integration, understanding and tolerance, all kinds of conflicts and contradictions will naturally arise. I remember a scene where Xipo mopped the floor because she didn't mop the floor in the way of a city dweller, and the water drops on the mop fell to the ground, which was scolded and abused by the mother of the head of the household, which made people worry. There is also a scene where Xipo doesn't know how to turn on the range hood when cooking. As a result, the whole kitchen is full of lampblack, which makes someone make a mountain out of a molehill and makes the family fly around like dogs. Although these are only two small details, they tell the original life of Xipo and Gazi after they entered the city. Moreover, such a plot setting is not simply selling bitterness and stirring up tears. Because it is true and credible, it has a realistic group foundation. How can a 70-year-old man who has lived in a remote mountainous area for a long time like Xipo know how to mop the floor and use the range hood correctly? The resulting conflict between cities and villages is naturally reasonable. There are countless small details like this in the series. Although Carrying Grandma to the City has created bitterness and made people cry, its theme and purpose are sunny, warm, inspirational and touching. There are still many good people in the world. This is the case in the play, and the real world outside the play is still like this.

Carrying Grandma into the City is not only true and credible, but also has tears and burning points. The actor's performance is also worth mentioning. In particular, the performance of Zhang Shaohua, a professional mother and grandmother, is full of strength and tenacity, and I feel that this drama is tailor-made and it is very enjoyable to watch. Gazi, who is upright, honest, kind and fair, is Gazi Xie Mengwei in Private Zhang Ga, and has a high degree of fit with the role. It's hard to imagine what it would be like if a popular fresh meat boy played the role. !

Seeing Mr. Zhang Shaohua play Xi Abao reminds me of my mother. There was once a wish to take my mother to live in Beijing when the conditions were ripe (stable job, decent income, and no worries about food and clothing), but unfortunately the wish failed to come true and my mother left. It is a lifelong regret that a good wish turns into a regret, which is one of the reasons why I feel so much about carrying my grandmother to the city.

With the further development of economy, one of the main signs that cities are encroaching on rural areas is that family ties are being eroded little by little. The problem of aging, empty nesters and left-behind children, many children who are busy working in different places are also neglecting their families for various busy reasons. But no matter how the society changes, no matter how the city encroaches on the countryside, the blood relationship cannot be changed. The best way to solve the problem of empty nesters is to give them family-like care and love, just like Xipo and Gazi go to town and see the rainbow after the storm. Therefore, while grandparents, parents and other relatives are still alive, we should "carry" them into the city as soon as possible, honor them with actions, care for them with affection, do our best and have no regrets.
