"I Love My Family" is the birth of Chinese sitcoms and the only classic so far.
In a 1999 issue of Time magazine, a report titled "The Laughter of Shelling" compared Yingda's sitcom to CCTV's "Focus" and Hunan TV's "True Love" "Confrontation" juxtaposed, saying that they "deviate from China's tradition and allow people to openly express their feelings." Ten years ago, it was hard to say whether the mind liberated the mouth or the mouth liberated the mind. This foreign thing called sitcom used dense witticisms to ridicule and eliminate the seriousness in urban life into the most popular media—— -television. In "I Love My Family", the serious old-fashioned thinking and official discourse of the retired veteran cadre played by Wen Xingyu was ruthlessly ridiculed by his children and grandchildren. As a result, China's No. 1 sitcom was banned after being broadcast on Beijing TV for 6 episodes, and the people of the capital had to They continue their 20 minutes of fun every night through the coverage of Hebei TV Station.
Rewatching "I Love My Family" has become a nostalgic experience. For example, Jia Zhiguo told Zhixin that he went shopping in peace: "It's not just Yansha Blue Island and Dorset Chang'an. After that, we will go to urban and rural areas." Turn." Several major shopping malls that were famous back then are now submerged in countless newcomers. We vaguely remember the ceremonial pleasure of entering the mall at that time. Ten years have passed, although the level is limited, Chinese sitcoms are still very popular. In them, we see more of the city around us, urban life, and attitudes towards life.
After visiting "Lansha Blue Island and Seth Chang'an" peacefully, what I bought back was a pile of "emery" hand paper, because it was sold with prizes. Indeed, there was a time when almost all money-related matters were conducted in a "prize-based" manner, even various fees charged by neighborhood committees. This is what Lao Fu said: "Lottery tickets are the lottery tickets on the beach in the old society, and they are gambling in disguise. They are no different from horse racing and dog racing. They encourage the idea of ????getting a lot of profit for nothing, which is cultivating parasites!" And the "Hong Kong 7" in the Peace Institute The grand prize of "Day Trip", 20% off, finally became a piece of proof of free use of toilet paper for life... Nowadays, the meaning of the word "parasite" is probably only in the medical field, and various lottery tickets are sold in the convenience store downstairs. There is no reason for you to pass through the door without entering. If you are lucky enough to win, you can get the cash without hesitation - it turns out that people need lottery tickets.
In the past, Lao Fu commented on the Guinness World Records: "What a trick! If he is so strong, you can let him plow the land, and you can save a few oxen." Today, everyone When you are keen on "flying" over the Yangtze and Yellow Rivers with various means of transportation, such words may sound a bit sweet to your ears.
Jia Zhixin, played by Liang Tian, ??was probably the first batch of "idle people" in New China at the time. He claimed to run three to five companies and "passed in and out of hundreds of thousands" every day. But I don’t have to go to work at home all day long. I just pick up the phone and say, “Give me a batch of wire rods, as many as you want.”——I’m afraid there aren’t many young people who know what wire rods are. Lao Fu denounced him as not doing his job properly, but today people like him are called "SOHO", which is the way of life and work that countless petty bourgeoisie young people yearn for.
Heping acupuncture, and the big names who share the stage with his daughter Yuanyuan: "That is, Amin Ayu Aying, Adong Ahuan Aqing, Akun Agon Awen who talks about cross talk, and Ahong who performs sketches Ashan Adan... Speaking of big drums, the one with the biggest tricks is your mother. "This was our star at that time. There were no scandals or tax evasion. "Taking acupoints" was already the biggest question that the public half understood and half envied.
The one who was ridiculed the most was Lao Fu. Along with his unabashed minor problems, Lao Fu's high-sounding language and behavior are particularly endearing.
Old Fu is an old revolutionary - "When the party was founded, 12 of them had a meeting on the boat. Was it you who posted a sentry at the door?"
Old Fu wants to save face. , afraid of temptation----"What if I lose my life insurance in the later years, how will future generations judge me? Will my memorial service be held?"
Old Fu is very advanced----" From my point of view, this third party issue cannot be completely denied. This is our usual policy of freedom of love and freedom of marriage.

"I Love My Family" uses high-sounding language to package a retired official, and then uses all kinds of "vulgar" ideas common to mortals to completely dissolve the "seriousness" we were used to. Since then, we The context has changed dramatically.
The sitcom not only dispelled the official discourse of Beijing's failed bid to host the 2000 Olympics, but also recorded the actions of the cast members of "I Love My Family" in the autobiography of actor Guan Ling. But "I Love My Home" wiped away people's loss with an almost unnoticeable scene shortly after that: Zhiguo teased Heping: "I think you will be the street director sooner or later, and wear the clothes sooner or later." A red hoop is walking all over the street, holding a small flag and standing guard, how majestic it is. Heping was dissatisfied: "Do you think that red hoop is easy to wear?" After saying that, he took out a red armband from his pocket and solemnly read the red letters printed on it: "Welcome the Seventh National Games, look forward to the Olympic Games... Oh no, when is this?" "Turn over the armband: "Welcome to the World Conference on Women. "----A resource-saving armband, throwing the past back and saying goodbye with ease, is a classic depiction of market wisdom and underlying ecology.
