In 1999, a domestic TV series about the theme of the virus was broadcast. This is China's first disaster film type of TV series, the director of the drama is An Jian, and the male protagonist is played by Teng Rujun, who won the 19th Golden Rooster Award.
The TV series tells the story of a place called Eighteen Mile Po Estuary Village, where two villagers accidentally dig a sealed box on the river beach on a dry riverbed.
The two people who thought they had dug up the treasure opened the box and found that it was just two bottles of smelly black water. After returning to the village, the two disappointed people died suddenly one after another, and the death was vicious, which made people afraid. Just when people were panicking about the sudden death of the two men, there was also a large-scale death of livestock in the family of the village secretary of Hekou Village.
Since then, there have been unexplained human and animal infections and deaths in Hekou Village, and the whole village seems to have become a Jedi. The news was reported to the city and quickly attracted the attention of the government and relevant departments, but for various reasons, the relevant news was deliberately blocked by some people, and in order to prevent the eighteen-mile slope where the virus estuary village is located, it was also blocked by the army.
Every hour is a dead man. Fear is beyond the limits of what ordinary people can endure. The dead are innocent, the living are even more innocent, they have the right to save their lives, but in order to ensure that the virus does not spread out, the village branch committee finally decided to cooperate with the closure of the village and seal the virus in Hekou Village.
The source of the virus has been clarified, that is, the bottle dug out by the two villagers at the beginning, and the so-called "smelly black water" contained therein is actually a sample of bacterial warfare left by the Japanese army when it invaded China. Although the source of the virus was found, it was still impossible to find a way to eliminate the virus in a short period of time.
Various forces and villagers have fought around this closed estuary village.
Ji Xiang, a young doctor at the epidemic prevention station, shouldered the heavy responsibility of the mountain, every second was looking for and developing a way to eliminate this germ, but he finally failed to get out of the eighteen-mile slope, and zhao Xiaoju, the village secretary of the village party committee, led 12 party members to run back and forth among nearly a thousand people to appease the people. The extraordinary spirit and heroic feats displayed at the crucial moment made it feel that the party flag was still so bright and bright.
Is the moment of life and death the most direct and real test of human nature, to stay, or to run out? Alive or dead? Work hard for yourself, or fight for others? Everyone must make a clear choice that cannot be escaped.
When many people were eventually sacrificed for this, and the remaining people were finally rescued, in order to eradicate the source of the disease, the entire village of Hekou was burned to the ground. The frightened eyes of the people gradually melted in the soaring fire. The flame that originally represented destruction represents a radiance of rebirth at this moment.
And the burning fire also made many viewers who were left a shadow by this TV series feel some warmth, no matter what, the people finally overcame this disaster.
This TV series is not too famous, perhaps related to some of its thrilling plots, after all, for many post-80s and post-90s people, this TV series is also one of the childhood shadows.
However, as the first domestic disaster film type TV series in history, this series still got a high score of 8.4 points in Douban. In addition to the horrific depictions of the virus and the epidemic, the portrayal of various human natures and realities in this TV series is also a highlight of it, and perhaps it is precisely because of the existence of these contents that it can obtain such scores.
In addition to those scary memories, the most memorable point of the film is that when the villagers first gathered for a meeting, after already knowing that it was a plague, the villagers finally decided to sacrifice themselves and leave the village behind.
The names of the villages that did not choose to flee in scattered are the most touching, although leaving Estuary Village, their chances of survival may be much greater, but there is no doubt that the virus will be brought to the outside world and infect more people.
This spirit of self-sacrifice may be the key to the Chinese nation's ability to overcome every disaster.
Finally, let's talk about whether you watched this TV series when you were a child. Do you remember the scene or plot that scares you the most?
