How to evaluate "I Repair Cultural Relics in the Forbidden City"?

After the first episode of the documentary aired, the issue was hit on Weibo.

The answer with the most likes is not the analysis of professionals from the shooting techniques, dubbing, narrative methods, etc., the highest degree of recognition is a sentence posted by a netizen after watching the show,

"This documentary is toxic!"

Yes, this documentary is poisonous, addictively poisonous.

is different from the naughtiness of "If National Treasures Could Talk", as the official announcement of the program team said, this is a very serious documentary, and this is a documentary that needs to be watched quietly.

If "If National Treasures Could Talk" used the most suitable way for young people's current life rhythm to cater to the audience, it has achieved unprecedented success.

So how should this slow-paced "I Repair Cultural Relics in the Forbidden City" be described and described?

Why is it so slow-paced, but it still makes us in an impetuous mood patiently read it?

Why did we just shoot some small scenes of life and work, but the scenes that are no different from our usual work make us so moved?

According to the perception of the audience in the past, uh, such documentaries are not within the scope of their cognition.

This is an era of rapid development and rapid change, and everyone is pursuing "fast, fast, fast!", racing against time to not be eliminated by the times.

The slow life of the past has long been away from us, but everyone yearns for the past, so when Su Luo sang "Once Upon a Time" when he sang "Once Upon a Time", he cried almost every fan.

But so what, you can't slow down, in this era, you have to be fast, no matter how much you remember the slow life in the past, it won't help, after the tears are over, turn off the TV, continue to stay up all night and fight hard, tomorrow the editor will urge the manuscript, and if you don't update the book friend, you will really send the blade, the reality is so cruel.

In this modern high-pressure state of life, people's hearts are impetuous, and success is forcing us to grit our teeth and move forward.

"What are you doing? Take a break? Do you still have time to take a break? Don't you see, your peers around you are already abandoning you!"

"If you work harder, your monthly salary can be doubled!"

......

Under such realistic conditions, you told me that this is a documentary that needs to be watched quietly, are you not kidding me?

It's not kidding you, in fact, you don't need to calm down, your heart will calm down after watching it.

"This documentary is toxic!" is the most appropriate evaluation, it is toxic, a serious and serious standard documentary, but everyone feels unfinished after watching it, and wants to continue watching.

Ordinary people also have extraordinary stories, and ordinary places are the easiest to see and move, which seems to have become a truth.

So what about the other way around?

Those who look mysterious, great people may not be extraordinary, the greatness of ordinary people attracts people, and the ordinary places of great people are equally moving.

The restorer of cultural relics, when he hears it, feels high, because it is little known, when he hears the name of this profession, he feels a mysterious aura rushing to his face.

If business ability is used as the criterion, the cultural relics restorers who appear in the film are by no means ordinary people, their stories and experiences are really much more exciting than ordinary people, but in this documentary, it is unusual, and the audience sees more from a reverse perspective: their daily life is actually no different from ours.

Clock in and get to work.

Clock in, leave work.

My company is listed, and it has nothing to do with me, the media only pays attention to the wisdom and greatness of the boss, and the boss who makes the most money is only the boss, and I am just one of the many small clerks in the company, worthless.

Cultural relics have been reborn, and visitors are amazed when they are exhibited, and they have nothing to do, tourists will only be amazed by the beauty of cultural relics and the heaviness of historical precipitation, which person will take the initiative to understand, in order to make this national treasure appear and shine again, what kind of people are behind what kind of people are silently making what kind of efforts.

In this respect, they seem to have something in common with us, except for the indifferent temperament that emanates from the inside out of the old craftsmen......

This is the realm gap.

Choose one thing for the rest of your life. The initial fantasy of every practitioner, and the final fantasy, is to find a job that they love the most and fuck for the rest of their life, and who wouldn't want that?

The reality reminds us all the time, even if you like this job again, if you don't get results for three months, then you should leave.

So watching this documentary, the audience will be very envious of the craftsmen who repair cultural relics in the Forbidden City.

The restoration of cultural relics is a very boring work, this process is like Zen meditation, which requires calmness, but they can do what they like to do for decades, and they can always happily tease the cat when they are forgotten.

When the true nature of the craftsman meets the essence of things, the realm of forgetting things and self arises.

The enthusiasm and love of the craftsmen for their profession give the cultural relics warmth and soul, and at the same time, these cultural relics also influence the craftsmen.

Day after day of repairing cultural relics, in the process of polishing the utensils, their own appearance and temperament also changed, as if something was also polished day after day in their body, they sank into the vast time and space of the craftsman's nameless and selfless, and their faces became quiet, in such time and space, the individual became small, but in another way close to eternity.

Perhaps this is the reason why this seemingly bland and boring documentary makes the audience cry "I was poisoned".

"I also want to go to the Forbidden City to repair cultural relics!"

"Probably this is the life I yearn for the most, choose one thing you love and do it for a lifetime!"

"Is the Palace Museum still recruiting? I want to sign up!"

"What are the requirements for working in the Forbidden City?"

"I can see that this is definitely not a serious documentary, but a recruitment promotional video of the Palace Museum Cultural Relics Restoration Institute!"

Netizens' comments always have a ridiculous meaning, of course, it is not true that everyone is enthusiastic about the restoration of cultural relics, but they just yearn for that state of life and work.

"I Repair Cultural Relics in the Forbidden City" became popular after an episode was broadcast, which also has a lot to do with Su Luo's influence, at least many experts think so, if it is filmed by another person, such a film will not be able to attract attention, no matter how well it is filmed.

"The film is really well shot, great in the ordinary, ordinary in the great, sincere and moving, very infectious, I have to say that this is also an innovation, but if it is not for Su Luo's huge influence among young people, it is likely to become a missing pearl. ”

"Yes, if it weren't for Su Luo, probably no one would have watched such a documentary, right?"

Well, if they knew that the documentary in their previous life actually had a mediocre response after it was broadcast, but it suddenly became popular on a certain website where young people gathered, they would probably be able to understand the most simple truth in the world.

Of course, any explanation and analysis can't compare to the sentence of the netizen of the mechanism.

"This documentary is toxic!".

There is a kind of "strange poison" that makes people go crazy and can't stop watching it for only ten minutes.
