How enthusiastic is the old man's pursuit of the stars? You can see it at the love restaurant of Guangdong Blue State Charity Foundation on the morning of the 14th!
Located in Shiqi Town, Panyu District, Guangzhou, the Blue Love Environmental Protection Restaurant held a volunteer service activity of "Love and Respect for the Elderly, Chongyang Love", and jointly starred in "Seventy-Two Tenants" "Prince Bing" Peng Chiquan and "Aunt Lan" Pan Jie to send holiday blessings to the elderly.

At 10:00 a.m., the door of the Blue Love Restaurant has been surrounded by old people, and everyone is looking around, looking for the traces of "Prince Bing" and "Alain" in "Seventy-Two Tenants". As a local Cantonese sitcom that has been broadcast for more than 13 years, this TV film is deeply loved by the old neighbors of Guangzhou. From October 11, the show's 17th season will begin airing, with two episodes per night for 60 consecutive days, and the total number of episodes will exceed 2,000. Grandpa Liu, 83 years old this year, told reporters: "After dinner in the past few days, the whole family has gathered around the TV to watch the new season, and it has not been tired of watching for more than ten years. Grandma Wu, who is also chasing the drama, and her companions are happily exchanging last night's plot: "I just saw Prince Bing on TV yesterday, and it is incredible that I can see a real person today." ”
In the warm applause of the crowd, "Prince Bing" actor Peng Chiquan and "Aunt Lan" actor Pan Jie walked into the venue, and the elderly people came forward to take photos. Subsequently, Peng Chiquan, who was a director of the Guangdong Dramatists Association and the head of the Foshan Youth Cantonese Opera Troupe, sang the well-known Cantonese song "Begging for Food Headed by All Evils and Obscenity", which triggered a chorus of the whole audience and pushed the atmosphere of the event to a climax.

Actor Pan Jie also took the stage to chat and interact with the elderly. In "Seventy-Two Tenants", "Aunt Lan", played by Pan Jie, is the wife of a tailor, responsible for washing and ironing clothes, and has nicknames such as "washcloth woman" and "tailor woman". She used the role to joke that she was not as versatile as "Uncle Bing" and "would only wash clothes", which caused continuous laughter on the scene.
The 74-year-old "Uncle Bing" joked that he was also a down-to-earth "elderly man" who sang for more than five minutes from memory without a teleprompter, which was indeed a rare challenge. Mr. He, a Cantonese opera lover, told reporters that Peng Chiquan's ancestral home is Panyu, Guangzhou, "Everyone may be most impressed by the role of 'Prince Bing', but he has been singing for many years, and we old fans of Panyu opera have long regarded 'Uncle Bing' as their own." ”

150,000 love lunches have been sent
According to the organizer of the event, Guangdong Blue State Happiness Culture Public Welfare Foundation, the love and environmental protection restaurant mainly provides free lunch for the elderly over 60 years old, the disabled and the disabled on weekdays, and an average of more than 150 people come to eat every day. Since opening to the public in December 2017, the restaurant has provided more than 150,000 love lunches, and more than 10,000 elderly people have eaten here. And the organization "Prince Bing" and "Alain" to meet the old people is also a windfall for them.

Braised peanuts, broccoli, lotus lily soup... The reporter observed that the dishes of the love lunch are rich, and the recipes are updated every day, and the old people who come to eat are very satisfied. Grandma Chen, an elderly person living alone, lined up to get tableware while sharing a photo of her and "Uncle Bing" with reporters. According to her, Grandma Chen is the old patron of the love restaurant, according to her son and daughter-in-law living in Dongguan all year round, and the restaurant was closed for more than half a year during the epidemic prevention and control period, "At that time, every day I ate alone, and there was no one to chat with, it was too difficult." The reporter inquired and found that most of the elderly who came to eat lived alone. Even during the Chongyang Festival, most of the children are unable to go home to accompany their elderly parents because of work. What the elderly lack is not a meal, but the love and companionship of their families. Eating at the love restaurant and sitting around with the old neighbors to discuss the new plot of "Seventy-Two Tenants" has alleviated the loneliness and emptiness of the old people to a certain extent.
