The summer in Xixiaohe is not calm, and in this season's ordinary summer, everyone's mind is quietly surging and changing. However, if you want to glimpse the waves of life in the ordinary day and night, you must interpret the changes in everyone's mind, this time, with the help of the story of the film, we will start from the "Taimen" culture and the two families in the "Taimen".
In the "Preliminary Investigation of Shaoxing Taimen", it is written that "Taimen" was originally an "honorific title" for the residences of people with identity, and with the changes of history, the courtyards with a certain scale and closed independence were called "Taimen". It is conceivable that "Taimen" obviously has the meaning of status symbols, which is more grade than today's Linshui single-family livable house selection of Lintie existing houses, but in this summer of Xixiaohe, "Taimen" has become a complex that is difficult for everyone to get along.
Yang Huifang, played by Tan Zhuo, wants to leave the "Taimen" as soon as possible. As the head of the Yue Opera Troupe, Yang Huifang's most urgent wish this summer is to win an award, take the prize, and then buy a big house - in the film, two staff members who are not serious, holding a paper of opinions for the transformation of the old city, let "Taimen" lose the symbol of prosperity in the past, and the "Taimen" culture is also destined to be replaced and disappeared in the change of times.
Gu Jianhua, the director of the office, was happy in his heart, the principal handed over the key to the vice president's office into his hands early, and when the old vice principal retired next semester, he would go further - the hope of promotion made him more firm in his belief in "Taimen", so his son wanted to play football, and his wife wanted to win the award, which made him feel uneasy, he represented "traditional thinking", the reverence for his superiors, the suppression of his son and classmates, and the anger at his wife's progress, all showed his deep-rooted thinking about patriarchal husband power.
Neighbor Grandpa Zheng has the courage not to be bound by tradition, in his view, father-son discord is a matter of course, so every time he meets with his son, cold words have become a condition, but the preference for Gu Xiaoyang shows his inner warmth and enlightenment, at the same time, he is also wise, and finally left Taimen to live with his son's family, which is obviously the best choice at the moment - but also the individual performance of the urbanization process.
Gu Xiaoyang's mood is more often aggrieved and angry, the dream hidden under the bed, so that he can't sleep at night, even if he and Grandpa Zheng secretly go to the bar in the middle of the night to watch the live football broadcast, it can't reduce the damage caused by the unsigned campus football team application form. The "cheating incident" seen in the back of the stage made him feel his father's betrayal of the family to his mother and himself, stalking, and taking pictures, which was probably the best protection measure he could do for the family.
The departure of the class teacher Shen, and "let others become the vice principal" is the symbol of the arrival of the end of this summer, but ending the summer is not equal to "hurting" the summer, the gains and losses in life are the norm, only through this season, can you see the scenery of this season, can you understand the sophistication of this season, so, although he lost the position of vice principal, Gu Jianhua, who signed the son's application, was more liked by the audience, and although Grandpa Zheng left, Gu Xiaoyang, who chased the door, said "I will guard your home for you" It symbolizes that he at least left behind the spirit he insisted on.
No one can grow up at once, but every summer is full of abundant and ordinary life.
