Chapter 2 Maternal-Fetal SOLO
"Shameless" is an American cable TV station Showtime, based on the British drama of the same name, which premiered on January 9, 2011, and has been broadcast to the ninth season in 2018, when Zhao Lipu was reborn, which is considered a long-lived American drama.
The series tells the story of the Gallagher family, who live in the slums of Chicago's South Side.
The Gallagher family has six siblings.
The eldest sister, Fiona, is a girl who has read countless men, but she is not the kind of annoying philatelic woman, just because she is burdened with the heavy responsibility of supporting her five younger siblings, she can't really be herself, and she has never met someone who can really give her a sense of security, so she has been indulging herself to escape the pressure that reality exposes on her.
Of course, the poor person must have something to hate, and the reason why her life is a tragedy is also related to the fact that she has not been able to truly grow and mature, and she can't blame others.
Big brother Lipu, the buddy possessed by Zhao Lipu, is also a tragedy in the play, in the first few seasons he was still very Gallagher's family style, with constant small evils and big mistakes, but in the later seasons he became a bad person.
He was originally the person with the most hope of changing the current situation of the Gallagher family's life, but because of all kinds of deaths, he went from a low-level young man with a brilliant and promising future to a Luther.
Second brother Ian, a handsome red-haired freckle guy, homo@sexual, bipolar patient, was normal in the first few seasons, and after the bipolar outbreak, he became the biggest troublemaker in the Gallagher family.
Little sister Debbie, the cutie in the first two seasons, but after entering the period of adolescent restlessness, the whole person has undergone a 180-degree change, she is pregnant unmarried and becomes a teenage mother.
The third brother, Carl, had sadistic tendencies when he was a child, so he became a juvenile delinquent, but when he grew up, he aspired to join the army and become a pillar of the country.
The younger brother Liam, a mixed-race child - I really don't know, the parents are white, how to mix up a black man - has been a baby for the first few seasons, and in the eighth and ninth seasons, when he grows up, he inherits the fine traditions of the Gallagher family, which proves the strength of the Gallagher family's genes.
In addition to the six siblings, Gallagher also has an alcoholic father and a runaway mother - these parents, who have never fulfilled their responsibilities as parents for a day, will only add chaos to the family.
Because it is a TV series, there will definitely be a certain amount of exaggeration in terms of plot, but this series does reflect the living conditions of the people at the bottom of the United States to a certain extent.
Zhao Lipu chased this drama because he was attracted by the overwhelming praise on the Internet, especially the words "large-scale" and "naked picture" that were repeatedly emphasized in those drama reviews.
But I really chased down the whole series, and I was also moved by the Gallagher family's attitude of life, despite their poverty, they have always been like seeds falling in the cracks of stones, growing tenaciously and trying to live.
Especially between several brothers and sisters, although there is dislike, they have never abandoned or given up anyone's sincere feelings!
This is completely different from the relationship between family members in the United States that Zhao Lipu has learned, and even China, which has always valued family affection, is difficult to find in the real world.
Zhao Lipu did think about what would happen if he became a member of the Gallagher family?
Can you single-handedly change the fate of the Gallagher family?
Who would have thought that God really gave him this opportunity!
Reborn into the body of the eldest brother of the Gallagher family, Zhao Lipu is quite satisfied - although in terms of appearance, Lipu is not as good as Ian and Carl, and even less than Liam when he grows up, but he also has his own strengths!
First of all, the right age – Lip is now 17 years old, is in 11th grade, and will soon be an adult at the age of 18, ready to apply for university.
Secondly, he has a smart brain - despite being born in the slums at the bottom of society, Lip is a genius who can get a perfect score on the SAT, which is known as the "American college entrance examination"!
Even because he didn't use this ability on the right path at the beginning, but used it to take exams for others and earn a little money, he was caught by a professor at the University of Chicago who was a part-time staff member of the American College Board.
Although the University of Chicago is not an Ivy League school, it is ranked in the top 10 in the world university rankings all year round, and the strength of the school is not lost to those Ivy League schools.
The third point is that Lipu doesn't look good-looking, but he has a good relationship with women, and he has had intimate relationships with many women in the series - this is the most enviable point for Zhao Lipu!
Now, reborn as Lipu, all these blessings will be for him to enjoy!
Although Lip has some shortcomings, they are not a problem compared to Ian's gay@sexuality, the potential risk of bipolar disorder, and the age of Carl and Liam!
Thinking about these clearly, Zhao Lipu accepted Lip's identity more happily.
The American high school system is different from the Chinese that Zhao Lipu is familiar with, there is no annoying morning self-study and evening self-study, after the compulsory courses in the morning are completed, the elective courses in the afternoon, most of them do not need to be carried out in the classroom, most of them are assigned by the teacher, and the students themselves or groups complete the homework.
Although Lip is only in the 11th grade, he has already completed the compulsory courses of the 12th grade by himself, and the mechanical repair he chose in the elective course is also good, not only can he easily cope with the schoolwork, but he can even borrow this craft to make a little money every summer.
In this afternoon's elective class, Lip escaped, found a room in the school where no one was, carefully recalled the plot clips of the "Shameless" episode that he remembered, especially about himself, and recorded some of the more important nodes in Chinese - one of the benefits of soul piercing, let him master English and Chinese two languages!
In the future, even if he fails to follow his plan and successfully enter the University of Chicago, with his Chinese proficiency, it should not be too much of a problem to find a job to support himself and live a rich middle-class life.
At half past three in the afternoon, the day's classes are over, and students who have no other club activities can go home.
Lip lingered at school for a while, waiting until four o'clock before heading to Karen Jackson's house.
Along the way, thinking of what was about to happen, Lip's heart was thrilled - the mother and fetus have been single for so many years, and they can finally say goodbye to @ the male body today!
Although it is not really entering the port, it is just a mouthful, but for Lip, it is also the first experience of life!
So much so, according to the memories of integration, when he came to the door of Jackson's house, which was both familiar and unfamiliar, and raised his hand to knock on the door, Lip felt a little weak.
