Maki Horikita turned her head sideways and looked at Zhu Zi triumphantly. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Do you have any flowers on my face? Zhu Zi was a little embarrassed to be stared at by the girl.
"No, I just think Zhu Zijun is very cute. If one day you choose to marry alone, will you choose me or Sesame-chan?" asked Maki Horikita a question that Zhu Zi had the most difficult question to answer.
"If I could, I'd like to marry both. Zhu Zi suddenly remembered what her sister said.
Maki Horikita was stunned, and after a long time, the girl laughed.
"Zhu Zijun, what you think is so beautiful. I still want to marry both, why don't you go to heaven? ”
Zhu Zi shrugged, of course he wouldn't tell Zhu Muyu's words to Horikita Maki.
"That's right, Zhu Zijun. Recently, I was going to shoot a three-episode TV series with Masa-chan and Matsumoto-kun. Koshi Yamamoto will also participate in the performance, and he and I will play a couple in the play. ”
The corners of Zhu Zi's mouth twitched: "What is a broken TV series? Is the director stupid?"
Maki Horikita couldn't hold back her laughter anymore.
"It's called 'My Family's History,' and it's a three-episode TV series that Fuji TV filmed to celebrate their 50th anniversary. Maki Horikita said.
Zhu Zi nodded lightly, she almost forgot about this Japanese drama with a luxurious cast.
This Japanese drama can be said to have gathered some of the most luxurious actors in the entertainment industry in recent years.
At the same time, you can also see the ambition of Fuji TV.
In fact, filmmakers from all over the world have the ambition to show the history of a certain period of time with film and television works. The Americans filmed "Forrest Gump", the protagonist is a surprisingly lucky congenital mentally retarded child; the Chinese used stars to pile up a "Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic", borrowing those well-known stories to make a high box office and political capital; in contrast, the Japanese took a path in the middle, and Fuji TV, the most powerful wireless television station, under the banner of celebrating the 50th anniversary of the founding of the station, joined hands with the ghost director and screenwriter Mitani Yuki, gathered a group of red and purple Japanese film and television stars, and filmed a special TV series with a duration of 6 hours, named " The History of My Family".
The plot of the story is not complicated, it is nothing more than "telling the story of the Japanese people themselves", but the ambition of Yukiki Mitani and Fuji TV is to "read Japan here" - at least Japan in the more than 20 years before World War II and after World War II. A lazy and lazy father who never forgets to take shortcuts, a mother who follows the rules and has a strong endurance, and 4 children with different personalities, constitute a typical Japanese low-class family. After spending more than 10 minutes explaining how the 4 children grew up, the series entered the main topic. In the post-war depression, the eldest daughter had to join a nightclub and work as a dancer to support the family, and then "unfortunately" committed herself to the nightclub owner and entered the house as a junior, thus improving the family's life.
Although the whole family is not as "lacking in heart" as Forrest Gump, they do not have Forrest Gump's financial luck, only the luck of meeting celebrities and getting involved in big events. Forrest Gump can become the protagonist of historical events, but the family can only act as a "human flesh background board", and the role they play is always a trick without a single dialogue. Decades later, although no one in the family has contributed to the development of history, and no one's name has been handed down to future generations, it can be regarded as a real existence in this era. Everyone works and lives, watching the Olympics on TV plainly, smiling and commenting, and the story ends like this.
If it is just a story about a junior and a wealthy businessman who really love each other, I am too sorry for the "small family, big era" in the slogan. The brilliance of "The History of My Family" lies in the fact that every big or small event encountered by the little people is closely related to the background of the times, and the history of this family condenses the modern history of Japan. The father in the film used to be wide, and his self-confidence was blindly inflated like Japan before World War II, and he finally lost everything in the war. Regardless of the obvious directional scenes such as the screenwriter's painstaking efforts to create characters participating in the post-war Japanese student movement, building rockets, the Niju Bridge incident, and constantly meeting celebrities from all walks of life, the relationship between the eldest daughter and the rich businessman and the wife of the wealthy businessman that the series focuses on is just a young mistress who really loves each other and a resentful couple who can't divorce due to assets, but actually alludes to the unresolved and chaotic relationship between Japan and the United States after the war.
The eldest daughter's first boyfriend became pro-communist after joining the war. Whether she is true or false, she must break up with her boyfriend and become attached to a wealthy businessman instead. This triangular relationship is a metaphor for Japan's inability to control the economic, military, and political spheres, and the reason for all this is that the eldest daughter always talks about "to live, to live better". In the end, the burden of humiliation turned into sincere reverence, Japan was deeply influenced by American culture, and the eldest daughter also truly loved the wealthy businessman. Since the rich businessman's first pot of gold was given by his wife's mother's family, he was never able to divorce his wife, so he could only continue to "threesome" awkwardly. The wife of a wealthy businessman is independent and arrogant, symbolizing the wariness, contempt and rejection of Japan by the United States. She predicted from the beginning that "if there is a junior, there will be a pussier", and sure enough, the eldest daughter is not the only lover of a wealthy businessman, and Japan is not the only overseas force supported by the United States.
At the end of the series, the death of a wealthy merchant symbolizes the beginning of Japan's gradual independence and its dependence on the United States. At the funeral of a wealthy merchant, celebrities from all walks of life came, and the eldest daughter and the son of a wealthy merchant wasted no time in narrating: "The pride on my mother's face and the surprise on her (the wife of a wealthy merchant) will never be forgotten for the rest of my life." It is a clear expression of the pride of post-war Japan, which was able to produce elites from all walks of life, even in the face of subservience to other countries, and ultimately created the miracle of Japan's economic take-off.
After the death of a wealthy businessman and the deception of his inheritance, the eldest daughter, who was completely independent, also learned to improve herself and work to support herself, while her child with aphasia was like Japan, which had long been placed under the wing of the United States, and it was difficult for her to make her voice heard internationally. But the picture is finally frozen in the joyful scene of the family participating in the sports day, and decades later, the child can already tell that history full of humiliation and unbearable in a joyful tone. The past belongs to the past, and the future will come.
Everyone in the film is trying to find evidence that they have lived, but it is always in vain. In the rolling torrent of history, it is not only this family that has been annihilated. From the small to the big, and then from the big to the small, "The History of My Family" tells the history of Japan and the story of every ordinary person.
Of course, for many young people, such stories are actually not what they like.
