In recent years, the British drama "Black Mirror" has captured the hearts of many audiences with its super brain hole design and novel story.
But in fact, Japan launched a similar drama as early as 28 years ago, and its purpose was to collect all the strange stories in the world to show to the audience.
Whether your preferences are horror, suspense, funny, warm, science fiction, you can find your heart in it.
Because of the wonderful plot and the addition of many popular stars, this drama has also become the longest-lived drama in Japan so far, and it is still being updated today.
This is The Wonderful Story of the World, a well-known super IP in Japan.
In 1990, "The Wonderful Story of the World" came out as a TV series and became very popular as soon as it was first broadcast. In 1995, the show was changed to be released in the form of 2 to 3 film specials per year, until now.
And what Pigo wants to introduce to you today is the highest-rated of all the specials, "World Of Wonder Movie Special", which was launched in the millennium.

On a rainy night, a group of people who don't know each other are trapped in the station, and in order to kill time, someone proposes to tell a story together.
One suggestion leads to 4 short stories in the film: the first is terrifying, the second is funny, the third is thought-provoking, and the fourth is tearful, and listens to Pigo slowly.
1. The story after watching under the covers - "The Spirit of the Snow Mountain"
The plane crashed while flying over the snow-capped mountains, killing most of the people on board on the spot, with only 5 lucky people surviving.
In order not to freeze to death, they decided to go to a nearby shelter to wait for rescue, and decided to abandon a woman who was alive but incapacitated due to a foot injury.
Although everyone easily arrived at the shelter because of the lack of Mali as a burden, Mali's vicious expression before his death was deeply imprinted in the hearts of everyone, especially Mali's friends, who were afraid because Mali dragged her clothes before she died.
Gradually, all indications were that there was an extra person in the room that everyone could not see, and everyone died mysteriously one by one...
2, the story of the brain hole - "Mobile Phone General"
In the 14th year of Motoroku (1701), because the lord of the domain was killed by the enemy, the men of general Edo Uchizo wanted to avenge the lord of the domain every day, but Uchizo neglected his duties day by day and indulged in gentleness.
Until one day, he picked up a mobile phone that crossed from 300 years later, thus changing his fate.
It turned out that 300 years later, there was an institution dedicated to delivering mobile phones to ancient celebrities to confirm the authenticity of historical materials through cross-temporal communication.
How exactly is the inner treasure of nature greedy and afraid of death recorded as a generation of generals? What conclusions did the forensics 300 years later draw? Everything is also available to you to find answers in the film.
3. The Gospel of Science Fiction Fans - "Chess Life"
In a man-machine war, the world chess king is devastated by the loss to the robot, abandoning his wife and living on the street.
Three years later, a mysterious man suddenly kidnapped the chess king and coerced him into playing chess with him.
Soon, the chess king found something wrong, every move he made on the board would be mapped to a real person, and whenever a piece was eaten, a person in reality would be stabbed to death.
For this reason, the chess king fell into deep fear and resistance.
As the game unfolds, the king is close to victory, but he finds that his wife has been kidnapped and placed in the position of the "queen", and the opponent's next step is to attack the "queen".
Does the chess king choose to win or choose his wife in the end? And what happened to this unusual duel?
4) Is marriage really the graveyard of love? - "Simulated Marriage"
A young couple who met in front of the theater to avoid the rain fell in love and decided to get married.
The two found out at the wedding company that the company offered a service called "simulated marriage" that allowed two people to simulate marriage at the level of consciousness by extracting the couple's DNA and using brain waves to determine whether it was suitable to live together.
Out of curiosity, they decided to give it a try.
When they first got married, although their lives were also a bit bumpy, they were also happy, but the longer the days, the greater the rift in the marriage of the two people, until they reached the end of the marriage.
Although everyone knows that marriage is the graveyard of love, but before they got married, they saw the tombstone, do they still have the courage to step into marriage, and there will be a surprising reversal in the story?
Hey, Pigo still has to sell a pass.
How, after watching these 4 stories, do you think that the screenwriter's brain hole is boundless?
Anyway, Pigo was amazed when he watched, the direction of the plot is really too unexpected, it can be said that the setting of each story is very novel.
While feeling the horror, funny, marvel and warmth, the film continues to guide us to think about life, although these stories seem absurd, but they are full of philosophy, worth savoring.
At the end of the film, the rain stopped and everyone left the station, but the story of the film is not over, just like everyone's life.
