In the early 1990s, a heavy industrial city in Northeast China. Chen Guilin (played by Wang Qianyuan), a former steel mill worker, started a band alone after being laid off. He ran around all day in the business of weddings, funerals, and shop openings, barely making ends meet. His wife Xiaoju (played by Zhang Shenying) ran away from home and fell into the arms of a wealthy counterfeit drug dealer. Now that Xiaoju is back in good shape, she not only has to divorce Guilin, but also fights for the custody of her only daughter Xiaoyuan. Guilin lamented his fate of failure, so he was determined to train his daughter to be a pianist. In order to get his daughter, he went around raising money to buy the piano, and even went to school at night to steal the piano with his girlfriend Shuxian (Qin Hailu) and his good buddies from the steel factory.
When all methods failed, Guilin accidentally found a Russian literature about pianos, so he called his partners to start the journey of hand-made pianos in the dilapidated factory
I watched this movie a long time ago. Today, the protagonist of the novel wants to invest in this movie. Suddenly, it seems that I haven¡¯t recommended it before, so I¡¯ll download it. The subject matter is quite rare. I don¡¯t have anything special to say about this plot, because it actually moved me. Not his plot and characters, but the common emotions of the people in it, the nostalgia for the past, the romance with the working class, or the unreliable and meaningless romance, where a group of laid-off workers build a piano, which is useless for livelihood, It can't save the protagonist's family. However, Zhou Zuoren's words are very correct: In addition to the necessities of daily use, we must have some useless games and pleasures in order to make life interesting. We watch the sunset, look at the autumn river, look at the flowers, listen to the rain, smell the fragrance, drink the wine that quenches our thirst, and eat snacks that do not want to fill us up. These are all necessary in life-although they are useless decorations, they become more and more refined. the better.
I love the old Hong Kong movies. Although many of them are produced on the assembly line, there are many plots that can impress you. Chow Yun-fat¡¯s double-gun burning dollar bills, Zhong Chuhong¡¯s "Maggie¡¯s Gift" bridge in "Autumn Fairy Tales" Duan, wheelchair dancing in "Across the World".
