Fan Zhong narrates from the perspective of the protagonist Hong (Xiao).
Fu Gui Jr. moved forward step by step in the torrent of fate and eventually became the chief chef of the Qing Dynasty, but at the last moment he realized that "there is true feelings in the world" and resolutely pursued his true self ... Among them, Fu Gui Jr. had a pure friendship with Emperor Guangxu and a flying saucer; The complex feelings of being an enemy or a friend with Xiao Li's father-in-law; Fighting against the evil forces headed by Lord K, the plot is ups and downs.
In addition, there are many characters in comics, each with its own characteristics, which is very worth seeing.
(1) Lao Hongtou-"It's time to worship the ancestors at last."
Xiao's background is Eight-Nation Alliance's invasion of China. Galeries Lafayette and the emperor fled to Xi 'an, and they needed a new accompanying chef. Immediately, a shocking conspiracy was involved. The political struggle between the reformists represented by the Emperor and the conservative evil forces represented by Galeries Lafayette K, Hong's grandfather Lao Hongtou became a victim of this political struggle.
The murderer who was framed as an emperor and poisoned. Before he was arrested, he thought with joy that he would have a successful career and was even forced to leave his only grandson behind.
Lao Hongtou was just a member of ordinary people in China, Chichiwa at that time. In order to live a good life, he naturally needs to seize every opportunity to brag about his Hongjia cuisine in front of Xiao Li's father-in-law, and to introduce his Hongjia cuisine to the plaque of Emperor Qianlong.
The curse came from his mouth, and it was these words that aroused the plot of father-in-law Xiao Li. The plaque given to him by Lord Qianlong now became his death reminder. Ironically, this used to be his greatest glory.
Contrary to the idea that Lao Hongtou wants to succeed in his official career, in reality he is a conservative in thought and action. In the first episode, there was a brief mention of renovating Hongjia cuisine, but Lao Hongtou disagreed and thought it was not practical.
Later, the story was just the opposite. It was Fu Gui Jr. who cooked a vegetarian pig's head meat and solved the urgent need. Later, the old red head put forward his own old prescription for treating hair loss at Galeries Lafayette, but the effect was still not good, which led Galeries Lafayette to kill another group of people.
When I read this story when I was a child, I only felt that the old red head put on a pair of parents' faces and made me very angry. I will have a taste when I grow up. Isn't this a conflict between old and new ideas? If you can only cook this life dish from the menu, what should you do if you encounter a "vegetarian pig head" that is not on the menu?
(2) Grandpa Xiao Li-"God, it hurts."
In this animation, another popular character is grandpa Xiao Li.
His relationship with Xiao can run through the whole animation. They will be intrigued with each other in their attitude towards the emperor,
But we can fight together to feed Lafayette; You can be jealous of flying saucers (mainly Xiao Li's father)
We can play a trick on Jin Daya from the beginning, then Xiaolizi can be bought by Jin Daya, destroyed by Xiao Daya, and finally rescued by Xiao Daya, and finally help Xiao to defeat Jin Daya's "poppy" plot ... Then, in order to meet his parents, he chooses to become a small enemy again and abolish the small golden finger.
The relationship between Xiao Li's father-in-law and Xiao Fu Gui seems to be interchangeable at any time, but the transformation of roles is relatively reasonable.
The contradiction between Fu and Li in the early stage lies in Emperor Guangxu, and cooperation is to feed Lafayette, so we have to cooperate. Xiao Li's father-in-law took the first step when dealing with Jin Daya. Although he was betrayed by Jin Daya, he gave up the temptation of 102 thousand.
Later, facing the whereabouts of his parents, he had to bow to power and reality and betrayed his best friend. It can be said that Xiao Lizi is also a complicated figure.
An interesting foreshadowing is that Xiao Lizi helped Fu Gui take a bath at first, popularizing how chefs usually take a bath and dusting with swan feathers.
In the last sentence, Xiao Lizi really dusted little Fu Gui with swan feathers, but that was the last time he took a bath with advanced potions. At this time, Xiao also shed tears. It can be seen that Xiaolizi has grown up, and he is really a friend of Little Fu Gui. But he failed to save his friend in the end.
Often animated to this scene, perhaps it is the moment when the protagonist reaches the peak and defeats the bad guys. At this moment, the protagonist's achievements run through the goals of the whole drama "Golden Kitchenware" and "Chief Chef", but they are as ridiculous and sad as the moon in the mirror.
(3) Guangxu and Cixi-Dear Dad and Useless Things
The relationship between Cixi and Guangxu is a bit complicated. Guangxu is not only the adopted son of Cixi, but also the nephew of Cixi. However, friends who have read comics should know that Guangxu called Cixi "Dear Dad".
According to its records, Princess De Ling, who was a female official of Cixi, wrote in "Two Years of Qing Palace": "The emperor and Yu and others all called Empress Dowager Cixi a male name." It can be seen that the names of the characters in this cartoon are still very particular about history.
But unlike history, Guangxu here really regarded Cixi as a "close relative". Judging from the fact that he gave his life to save his "father" in front of bandits, he did not have the idea of usurping power, but sincerely dedicated himself to the country and family.
Emperor Guangxu was literate in the play. When Fu Gui Jr. was faced with the problem of "flowering on the tree", Emperor Guangxu could come up with a solution at once. Xiao also said that "bean sprouts have a high culture" (Xiao didn't know Guangxu's identity at first, so it was called Guangxu bean sprouts).
He's still responsible. After doing the so-called "bad thing", he also accepted the punishment of George W. Fu Gui. Comparatively speaking, Galeries Lafayette has never been soft on people's cream. He has an ideal, never forgets the reform and reform, and makes the last blog for the empire he should have buried long ago.
But as an emperor, he is an incompetent person. He can't and never thought about it. The real problem to be solved is that Cixi and K Jun have neither courage nor strength, and they are soft-hearted. How can they not end up in Yingtai?
?
Cixi is the real biggest villain in the whole play. Of course, she also has a lovely side, such as the establishment of the "Cooking Competition Fair Committee" at the suggestion of UFO.
But many times, she has been the biggest obstacle to the leading group. In order to survive, she can escape to Xi' an regardless of the lives of people in Beijing; In order to eat meat, regardless of the life and death of the chef; Because the hair has fallen off, it is necessary to kill people to "scare this white tiger away with blood gas"; Because the skin is not good, kill it; Because the emperor's "dragon cake" is delicious, she bears a grudge ... She can easily starve the "son" who called him "dear father", easily kill her rescuer, the old Chinese doctor, and even sacrifice tens of thousands of people for her own selfish desires.
Some people say, "at least in judging dishes, she is fair", and this so-called fairness is only based on her luxury satisfaction under the supreme power. After all, all she has to do is eat delicious food. What's the difference as to which chef cooks the food?
Unlike Fu Gui's grandfather and grandson, Guangci's "father-son" relationship is more subtle. The relationship between the two groups reflects the impact of new culture, new ideas and new technologies on old culture and old ideas. The difference lies in the success of George W. Fu Gui. His peeler, his range hood, his solar greenhouse and his boat chisel are all used to divert water to resist the wind and waves, and finally really help him solve his current predicament.
Emperor Guangxu failed. It seems that he will never have a chance to win, and the country can only continue to fall. The contrast between "one right and one opposition" shows that the "old" is reactionary and decadent, and it needs to be eliminated before it can be reborn. On the other hand, it is the embodiment of family affection. Although there are contradictions between the rich and the rich, there is no doubt about their pure affection, and grandchildren often join hands to tide over the difficulties.
Guangci's Father and Son is different. Guangxu was naturally a dutiful son, but Cixi was neither a loving mother nor strict father, but a monster distorted by power. When she is happy, she can enjoy Guangxu's food; Once she feels that Guangxu may replace herself, even if it is only her own feeling, she will go on the rampage. No wonder she lost her hair. It's hard for her to accept. She's actually scared. She knows that she is "old" and will be "replaced" sooner or later, and the old power will be replaced by a new generation.
Even if her hair can grow back and her skin can be smooth again, she is old after all. The poor "old" monster can only make those noisy moans.
I just don't know that this "old" monster really became a loner in the end. Has she ever had a little regret, a little lonely feeling?
(d) Bees swim in the butterfly dance-little butterflies are flying.
Xiao Feidie is the heroine of this play and the best helper of Xiao. Many crises in Fu Gui were solved by flying saucers. It can be said that in a long story, the help of a flying saucer often gives people a feeling of twists and turns. As long as the small flying butterfly can move, the audience often has a sense of peace of mind.
When Fu Gui Jr. was framed as the murderer of Lafayette, it was the UFO who discovered that his father Xiao Li was hiding something, and finally joined hands with the emperor to reveal the truth. (Of course, she knew that the murderer was not Xiao, partly because the murderer was herself. )
Later, she understood that it was not easy for Lafayette to listen to opinions, so she wanted Lafayette to participate in the football match and let her feel how uncomfortable it would be if there was unfair competition. Finally, Galeries Lafayette sincerely hopes to set up a fair committee.
The image of a brave and resourceful chivalrous woman is presented to the audience. She is not only a good partner and helper of the protagonist, but also a brain trust of the protagonist.
Finally, it is even more regrettable that Xiao Fei has become a tool for political transactions. Even if you are resourceful and travel westward, how can you stop the flood of this era?
