My thoughts after watching "A Bite of China 2"
Inscription: This is a China that is undergoing drastic changes. People and food are moving faster than ever. No matter how hurried their steps are, no matter how involuntary the reunions and joys and sorrows are, there is always a taste that reminds us in its own unique way on the tip of the tongue three times a day: recognize where tomorrow is going and never forget where yesterday came from. ”
I have never watched the first season of A Bite of China, but I always hear compliments and compliments from people around me, so I want to see what kind of documentary this is. It's not as exciting as everyone said. With such curiosity, I watched the first episode of the second season of "A Bite of China" at 21:00 on Central Television.
I was really moved afterward, not only because of the beauty of the food, but also because of the traditional customs of the Chinese nation. Although the film is about food, the humanistic feelings interspersed in it are very good! , more humane and real, it can not only highlight the simplicity and loveliness of working people, but also highlight some social realities of the working people at the grassroots level. If it just describes the ingredients, processing and final products of food, it will be monotonous and emotionless. It turned into an empty pure food documentary
1. Traditional Chinese food is really a mouth-watering delicacy (I have to praise the photographer's skill here, the photography is really good. Especially good) all come from the most ordinary rural folk, and do not come from high-end restaurants in the city, whether it is the honey porridge made by the Tibetan boy Baimajia in Tianma (can’t remember the specific name), or the Sichuan beekeeping couple. Tan’s bean curd, Shaanxi’s Kuankuan’s strong trouser noodles, Miao’s Leishan fish sauce, Shandong’s scallion rolls, and Fujian’s Quanzhou radish rice all come from the hands of the most ordinary working people in the countryside. I lament the working people’s Wisdom and hard work have made the traditional Chinese food so beautiful!
2. The good traditional Chinese style can be inherited. Compared with the food, the stories of the characters in "Footsteps" are more touching, including family members. The tenderness between people is the most indescribable and the most precious. Baima, a Tibetan boy from Gastrodia, helps his brother to go to college to help reduce the burden on his parents. In order to celebrate that his brother is about to go to college, Baima gave it to his brother. A special gift - natural hao123 exciting information, the latest and hottest daily headlines, entertainment, gossip and exciting videos. However, this delicious and nutritious honey is found on a tree tens of meters high (this is equivalent to ten meters). The height of a multi-story building), Baima climbed up step by step by relying on the entanglement of tree vines and digging the path in the tree with an axe. It took about four hours to reach the crown of the tree. In order to obtain honey, Baima got rid of the tree vines. , walked slowly on the canopy, lit smoked grass (to prevent wasp stings), and finally reached the honeycomb and obtained honey. I was really scared to see the white horse climbing such a high tree to get honey. It was too dangerous. . But the elder brother would rather take the risk to give his younger brother this special gift. The power of family ties is so strong. In order to support their family, Sichuan beekeeper Tan and his wife traveled around raising bees for 11 months a year, and they raised 20 bees. After many years of wandering, their two children were able to live a stable life at home. The mutual tolerance, tolerance and love between the husband and wife made Lao Tan and his wife feel that they can be at home wherever they put in. They want to get delicious honey, If you want your children to live a stable life, you must be down-to-earth and work hard step by step, which shows that the lovely working people have always inherited the traditional virtues of the Chinese nation: hard work and a down-to-earth style.
3. Highlighting Existing Social Problems The film also reflects some social problems: Li Jianying’s parents, who work in Guangdong, can only go home for half a month during the corn harvest. During the month, while harvesting corn, the whole family went out to make Leishan fish sauce. When they were about to leave, the family gathered together to have a reunion dinner with fish sauce as a dish. The daughter Li Jianying, who stayed at home alone, felt sad. She cried because she couldn't prevent her parents from leaving. Before leaving, she and her brother packed a jar of fish sauce for their parents.
Migratory migrant workers are a huge change for Chinese people in recent years. Such huge changes have produced more left-behind children (the total number of left-behind children in China is actually the same as the total number of left-behind children in the UK). They lack the care of their parents and are likely to suffer from psychological problems. Questions such as how to solve the problem of left-behind children are worthy of our consideration. Professional wheat farmers walking on the plains at the northern foot of the Qinling Mountains can only harvest more than one acre of wheat a day, earning a maximum of 200 yuan. However, a mechanical wheat harvester takes only a short time to cut an acre of wheat and only costs more than 100 yuan. If things go on like this, the Chinese traditional Mai Ke will slowly disappear. I feel that although mechanical efficiency is high, it may not be as humane as people chatting while cutting wheat in a wheat field. Moreover, these "eliminated" Mikes also lost their seasonal "jobs" and had no income, so they had to rely on other ways of working to make money. Social progress may cause some traditions to disappear, but I really don’t want to see China’s traditional customs and customs no longer visible in a few decades. I hope these beautiful traditions can be passed down and carried forward, just like my Chinese nation that will last forever!
Chinese people “No matter how hurried their footsteps are, no matter how involuntary the gatherings, separations, joys and sorrows come, there is always a taste that reminds us in its own way on the tip of the tongue three times a day: recognize where we are going tomorrow, Don’t forget where you came from yesterday.”
