Write a drama with life

"It's so real!" This is the most common sentence in netizens' comments on Hometown.

Douban users' comments all mentioned "truth"

foreign country/land

It tells the story of four girls' "drifting north" experience.

Joe, a "social animal", was busy dealing with the new leader, while being cheated out of the rent by the second landlord;

Yan Xu, a "moonlight clan", came to Beijing for her boyfriend, but she was on and off and quarreled endlessly.

Ji Nanjia, a "strong woman", suffered from cervical cancer and had to face her family to urge her marriage.

This kind of crowded subway to work

Much like you and me.

Hu Jingjing, played by Jin Jing, became the biggest highlight of the opening ceremony-

She was fired by her boss for no reason on her birthday, and her new clothes were stained by children on the subway. She was busy comforting and protecting her friends in trouble. After receiving the phone call on the overpass, she accidentally broke her mobile phone.

The fallen Hu Jingjing smiled, then jumped down and took his own life.

Hu Jingjing jumped down and took his own life.

Hu Jingjing's story made many viewers burst into tears, especially aroused the resonance of many young viewers who were "migrant workers" in a foreign land.

At first glance, Jingjing's last life experience was too coincidental. All the bad things are piled up together, but all the piles are shared by people struggling in the metropolis.

The company persuaded Hu Jingjing to resign.

This story may happen to everyone, so it is easier to arouse the empathy of the audience-

Sometimes it's bad luck. Everything is bad luck.

Listen, if the "dirty" boss fired Jingjing, my blood pressure will come up!

As we all know, who hasn't collapsed as a "migrant worker"?

Jin Jing talks about her role as Hu Jingjing.

"Don't just be someone else's sun and forget that you can cry."

The story of "Another Country" can present a wonderful story full of coincidences without distortion, thanks to the fact that the screenwriter Mi Shuang himself is a "foreigner" who has been drifting north 15 years.

Every detail in the play is extracted from the creative team's own experience and reassembled according to the rules of drama. Even the script meeting will sometimes become a "workplace tucao conference", where everyone tells their own experiences in a word and becomes the best material for "other countries".

The plot of Joe being cheated by the second landlord was adapted by Bi Shuang according to his own experience and with reference to the Danke apartment incident in 2020.

One year, Beijing's housing prices rose, and all landlords wanted to sell their houses. Bi Shuang moved four times in a row in the same community, tossing and turning made her collapse.

Because I was cheated by the second landlord.

Joe was kicked out of the house by the landlord.

"For people living in a foreign land, renting and moving is an unavoidable problem." Shuang Yan believes that only by grasping the common problems of strangers can the works be credible and grounded.

Guo Shuang said that the question he wants to discuss in Another Country is exactly the question that "North drift" has repeatedly asked himself in his mind over the years-

People are wandering outside,

Where is home?

Where is the sense of belonging?

From Depression to Cure

Hu Jingjing's death, no matter from the resonance and impact at the beginning, or from the suspense running through the whole play, is a "hook" for the audience to watch from episode to episode.

But if you only focus on the negative emotions of strangers, it will inevitably become a mediocre work selling anxiety.

Fortunately, "Hometown" has tasted the bitterness of life and "returned a sweetness" to the audience.

Hu Jingjing's departure

Let the other three sisters begin to reflect on the meaning of life.

Before watching "Foreign Land", many viewers had such questions-

Since life in big cities is so hard,

Why did you stay there?

In the play, Ji Nanjia also asked Ouyang in the car, and Ouyang hit the nail on the head: "Is Beijing bad?"

Jane Yifan also comforted Joe and said, "Beijing is an inclusive big city, which can make talented people succeed and ordinary people who are willing to work hard become rich and secure."

Jane Yifan described her views on Beijing.

While describing the difficulties, Hometown also shows the touching faces of these young people who insist on staying in the land of their dreams and fighting for their dreams.

No matter how suffocating the unfortunate life is, there will be a ray of sunshine shining into my heart.

Joe was so scared when he broke into the house alone that he met a kind neighbor to help call the police. Ji Nanjia's blind date met people many times, but she still ran around and met her own love. Even Hu Jingjing, who was crushed by the "last straw", received the "Happy Birthday" from the unknown policeman when handing in his ID card. ...

Who doesn't say Ji Nanjia and her little boyfriend are addicted to drugs?

In the overall depressed atmosphere in the first half of Another Country, there is always a little unexpected warmth to rekindle hope.

It is precisely because Hu Jingjing's tragedy is heartbreaking and regrettable that it is more understandable: "It has reached the worst time, and if you persevere, you will usher in a turning point."

With the twists and turns of the plot, the phrase "I'm fine in a foreign country" changed from the sadness of reporting good news to real happiness.

The characters in the play face life with a positive attitude, welcome their happy ending and inject warmth and strength into all the "strangers" in front of the screen.
