Remember some time ago
A short video "What is Page"
Overnight brushed up the circle of friends
Countless people in just a few minutes
First hahaha looked at it and smiled
Then there were silent tears

This wave of emotion has not yet been dispelled
Director Zhang Dapeng's new work
"Living Map Daddy" is online again
After reading it
I think it's even more touching than "What's Page."
"Living Map Dad"
It's about fathers in countless families
Relationship with one's own children
I don't have to use one word to describe it
It is
"Awkward"
In life
Countless people's dads
Stubborn and rigid
And strictly boring
Our minds
Dad mostly didn't understand
Our choice
Dad was mostly skeptical
Our love
Dad was mostly against it
thereupon
We became increasingly reluctant to talk to Dad
Call home
It is also a short sentence
"Dad, what about my mom?"
Dad and daughter in the video
It's such an "awkward" relationship
But with mom died three years ago
The daughter is still inviting the lonely father
Come and stay at home in town for a while
But just arrived in the big city
Dad was lost
The phone didn't work either
Obviously it was the train that arrived in the afternoon
I only saw my father at the police station late at night
The daughter nestled a belly fire
As soon as I got in the car, I complained about my dad
"Why is your phone turned off!"
Do you think this is in your hometown?
You think you're a living map everywhere you go?
It's annoying! ”
Dad sat in the back seat of the car the whole time
Without a word
Tonight's Dad
Very lost
Because he didn't want to admit that he was old
Not useful
This living map of my own is not good
Because when my daughter was young
There is no road that Dad doesn't know
Where does the daughter want to go
Dad can take it with him rain or shine
They have a lot of little secrets that belong to only two people
My daughter wants to eat popsicles in the winter
Mom won't let me eat
The father took his daughter to secretly buy it
Also instructed
Be sure to keep it a secret when you go home
But now it's different
The daughter grew up
It seems like Dad is no longer needed
In this strange city
A dad with strong self-esteem
Be blown away by reality
But he still refused to admit it
"Machine navigation is not good!
Who has a brain! ”
Come to my daughter's house
He doesn't want to be a "guest"
Early in the morning
He insisted on going out to buy vegetables by himself
The daughter said she was going to send him
He didn't
As soon as he slipped a cigarette, he ran to the wrong road
Shouting is not listening
Sure enough
Dad who doesn't fit in with the city
Lost again
The son-in-law helplessly gave him an old mobile phone
He said he would teach him to navigate with his mobile phone
But he sternly refused
"I said it!
I don't need to!
My brain will remember the way! ”
The daughter was already going crazy by her father's stubbornness
She kept muttering
"You're mad at me!"
You gave birth to me,
Just to me off! ”
Dad listened
Silently returned to the room
But when the daughter comes home from work the next day
Dad's luggage was found missing
Only a letter was left on the table
"Daughter
I know
Stay here for a while
It's a lot of trouble for you."
Next to the letter
There was also a map drawn by Dad's hand
"I've drawn you a map of the area around your home
Shop above you like to eat
I've flagged it all
I've tasted it pretty well
To your taste"
"You've grown up
Nothing is missing
Just busy
But you're busy
Also be sure to take care of yourself
otherwise
Dad can't rest assured where he is."
"You sent me glasses
I really like it
Put it on very clearly
But I'm not old
Can't use it."
Until now
Dad still wouldn't admit it
I'm already presbyopia
Newspapers and mobile phones can not be read clearly
This too
Why he always refuses
Look at the reasons for phone navigation
He didn't want to admit it
Not afraid of getting old
Rather, I am afraid that my daughter will hate herself and become old
He wanted to be a hero and a living map for his daughter's life
But
He couldn't do it
Daughter took home around the streets and alleys
And the train station was searched all over
But I couldn't find my father
Go home and have a look
Dad actually cooked in the kitchen
The daughter could no longer control her emotions
Tears
Roar loudly
"What are you doing?"
Dad looked helpless
"Me?
I went grocery shopping!
Why is this? ”
Dad comforted while cooking
"Don't get angry!
Hurry up!
Let's eat!
Four dishes and one soup! ”
Look at the dad who is busy cooking before and after
The daughter finally broke into laughter
Such a dad in the video
It's the most authentic dad in our lives
It's also our countless families
The epitome of the "awkward" father-daughter relationship

I once saw a passage:
How screwed up Chinese family relationships are?
Refusal to communicate in person,
Silent dedication behind the scenes.
In extremely poor communication,
There was a little bit of smoothness,
It's called touching.
This is not us
Relationship with his own father
maybe
Be by our side
Dad's stubbornness was real
Dad's seriousness was real
Dad's silence was real
Daddy's awkwardness is real
But
Dad's love for us
It's also true
Do you remember the last time you hugged Daddy?
Do you remember the last time I talked to my dad?
It's almost New Year's
Give yourself also to Dad
An opportunity to communicate and be close
Because
In our lifetime
Only Dad
It is always standing behind us
O man who is waiting for us
