On October 9th, the official announcement of the TV series "Family in the Car" was officially announced, and it will premiere on TVB Jade Channel from October 17th. This TV series is starring many well-known actors such as Lin Mincong , Jiang Meiyi , Bao Qijing , etc. It tells the story of several groups of families buying houses. As a Taiwan celebration drama, this TV drama about buying a house obviously has a good topic effect and audience expectations. At present, it should become a small hit in TVB's Taiwan celebration drama. The
TV series "The Family in the Car" also has another name of the Hong Kong drama, which is "The Dirty Family in the Car". The "dirty" here is not the "dirty" in the sense of scolding the street, but the appellation of an ethnic group opposite to the "upper class", which refers to the group appellation of ordinary people. The word "dirty" needs to be placed in a specific Cantonese context in order to appreciate the taste.
Of course, the three words "getting on a car" also have a fixed Cantonese context, and they are talking about the wave of people who have caught up with the trend and bought a house. Fortunately, the word "get on the bus" is familiar to everyone in the context of Mandarin . Everyone bought a house at a good time and called it "getting in the car". In this TV series, "the nasty car family" actually means that among ordinary people, they bought a house at a good time.
Of course, "The Family in the Car" is really not just the story of the group of people who bought a house at a good time. Otherwise, the story would be relatively bland. When the time is good, there is no "getting on" or even "getting off", and the stories of those people. Let's take a look at the synopsis of the Hong Kong version of this TV series. Because it is the Hong Kong version, some words have their own Cantonese flavor. A Hong Konger's dream. However, it takes 20.9 years for a household with a median income to buy a home, even if they don't eat or drink. The difficulty of "getting on the bus" is world-class. "Getting off the wrong car" means losing the "building" and hating it for eternity. Middle-class families will be "downstream"...
Che Zhiming and his wife sold the property in 2008 and "cash out", thinking that within half a year Property prices will fall to the bottom, but they will rise instead of falling. The dream of buying a private property was shattered, so I had to switch to HOS, but unfortunately I had to choose a property. Ming was extremely distressed because of the indefinite "getting on the bus", and when he saw that the person he hated the most in his life, Min Xie Yuxia, was sitting in a public house with a sea view, he was even more resentful. Ming tried hard to persuade Xia to add his family to Xia's public housing list, and then exchange public housing for HOS. Who knows that the plan will never catch up with the changes...
Ming is a regular customer of real estate agent Gao Rong, Ming introduced his eldest daughter Qian Qian Rong as an assistant. After Qian became a real estate assistant, she saw all kinds of buyers. Rong regards "getting on the bus" as a necessary stage in life, Qian also wanted to get on the bus, so the two got married and applied for HOS together. Rong moved into a HOS to save rent, but Qian's family was forced to move in and had to move in together. The two people who are fakely married have to face the real cohabitation life...
Obviously, "The Family in the Car" tells the story of how the group of people who sold their houses during the period of rising house prices lived their next lives. This kind of story of buying and selling a house is easy to get the audience's emotional resonance . At the same time, it is easy to have the real life fireworks, especially the fireworks of Hong Kong. After all, buying a house is one of the biggest things in life. And most of the audiences across the country have to experience this kind of thing.
However, it still needs to be emphasized that Hong Kong dramas are often very authentic in terms of commercial attributes, but when faced with realistic themes, their own realistic ability has always needed to be improved. In particular, some TV dramas that want to be realistic, but often because of the too strong commercial flavor of some bridges, and eventually caused the failure of realistic brushwork. This is determined by the natural attributes of Hong Kong dramas, and it may not be well "corrected" in "The Family in the Car".
starring, Lin Mincong, Jiang Meiyi, Bao Qijing, Ding Zilang, Yuan Wenjie , Jiang Haowen , etc., are well-known actors familiar to Hong Kong drama fans. In the play, the main cast is actually the middle-aged and elderly cast, and the stories of these people are also told. The main story and starring lineup of "The Family in the Car" are more like a sentimental card for Hong Kong drama fans.
The screenwriter of the show is Zhu Jingqi and Liu Xiaoqun, they belong to the husband-and-wife team of screenwriters. They have many representative works and are relatively well-known. For example, the movie " Mekong Action " was completed by this group of husband and wife screenwriters and Lin Chaoxian . The recent hit dramas such as " Iron Detective " and "Criminal Investigation Diary" were also created by their screenwriters.
Guan Shuming and Guan Wenshen, the directors of the show, are not the first to collaborate. Among the TV series co-produced by the two directors, the closest to us should be "OPM", which has maintained an audience rating of 7.7 points. This kind of achievement is already high for Hong Kong dramas. Based on this, this "Car Family" is obviously worth looking forward to. (Text / Ma Qingyun)
