, there was a domestic animation called "The Great Guardian", which was available in Cantonese and Mandarin, but I highly recommend you to read the Cantonese version.
is very classic because there are so many slang words in the Cantonese version. If you understand Cantonese, you will understand most of the jokes. This is incomparable to the Mandarin version. Many people expressed dissatisfaction, saying that every region has its own dialect and Cantonese is just one of them. In fact, this is really not the case.
Cantonese has two wider ranges than Mandarin, so Cantonese songs are difficult to sing, but once they are sung, they are very nice. For example, you listen to the songs of Faye Wong and Eason Chan. Many songs must be sung in Cantonese.
Actually, the same is true for Hong Kong movies. I think this is also the reason why Hong Kong movies are so developed.
Speaking of jokes in Cantonese, the most frequent appearance is in Stephen Chow's comedy movies. This is a topic that Hong Kong people love to talk about at the end of the last century. The biggest reason he likes to talk about his lines in movies is that these lines are funny.
If you don’t believe it, let me give you an example. It’s the "9527" in "Tang Bohu Dian Qiuxiang" starring Zhou Xingchi and Gong Li. If you don't understand Cantonese, you can't understand what it means.
At that time, Stephen Chow was sold to Washington DC as a burial father. The housekeeper played by Liang Jiaren stood up and said that from today onwards, your number is 9527, and you are a lowly person. In other words, the low-level people don't even have names, only numbers. But why is this number? Could it be said that Washington has close to 10,000 servants? This is not the case with
. In fact, the number "9527" has appeared in many movies, even in places other than Stephen Chow's movies. For example, some people say that in "Kung Fu", when the charter couple and the fire cloud evil god Liang Xiaolong fight, the flying playing cards also have the words "9527".
, for example, is also the number in "Prison Storm" starring Zhou Yunfa.
So is there anything magical or special about this string of numbers? In fact, there is nothing special. If
has to say something, it is probably some nonsense spoof, a joke among adults.
If you understand Cantonese, you will understand what these four numbers mean. The homophony you used for "9527" is "Dove Wuyinqi", which means that a man is very capable in a certain aspect.
In fact, this is the difference between Cantonese and Mandarin. So many times we can’t understand each other’s culture. We don’t understand what others are laughing at. And for so many years, we have lost a lot of laughter in Stephen Chow's movies, do you know?
For example, "9527" in "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrant", now I hear this meaning. Can you still look straight?
