Medley063~Let him read Haruki Murakami to you

5th weekend of January, everyone.

With the Spring Festival approaching, shops on the streets are closed one after another. During the epidemic, the number of people returning to their hometowns to celebrate the New Year does not seem to decrease. When Shanghai comes to this time of year, it is an exaggeration to say that the city is empty, but it is indeed much clearer. I wish you all a prosperous Year of the Tiger and a happy holiday.

Love Tibetan Japan

• Oil prices are soaring, and there's been more talk of Japan's energy policy lately. In this issue of "NP", Takeda criticized green energy for advocating cogeneration (combination of electricity and heat), which is justified. It's not even clear whether the earth is warming (greenhouse effect) or cooling (ice age), and all the "efforts" built on it look like a hoax.

Japanese drama world

※Always※

• "Wife Becomes a Primary School Student" EP1, Tsui Shinichi plays a middle-aged man who still can't get out of his wife after 10 years, and lives like a zombie with his daughter (Maita Caizhu). One day, his reincarnated wife recovered her memories of her previous life, and elementary school student Wan Lihua broke into their lives. Maita Nunnuo's acting skills are really good, she looks like Ishida Yuriko, and her overage behavior is not offensive. Rare and moving works this winter.

• "Neighbor Power" EP1, Matsumoto Jun and Ueto Aya play a couple who move into an apartment complex full of eccentrics with their children. The nosy protagonist blends into the mysterious life of the neighbors. The screenwriter Kazuhiko Yuchuan continued to play his characteristics, and this time he also robbed the director of the job, claiming to be "personally most satisfactory work". Nanako Matsushima changed her career from housekeeping to numerology, and her face was terrifying when she appeared. After all, it is reasonable that it is not "SUPER RICH" that lacks maintenance. Matsumoto Jun's performance is slightly old-fashioned, and his appearance also shows signs of developing towards Kagori Shingo. In addition, the title of the play is obviously a pun (the next door's Zhongyue force, the neighbor's force), imitating the translation of "boyfriend force".

※Continued review※

• "Let's Come Together" W12, JOE went to Tokyo to record after winning the game. He encountered setbacks and broke up with RUI through the president's daughter (Nozomi Sasaki)... I have a premonition that Chapter 2 will be a bad ending again. Going to the laundromat to "propose a marriage" was very touching. The Takemura couple said: "It's not a pity that this shop has been in business for a generation. It's just a form (shell), and it's enough to carry our fate with RUI.
• "Kamakura 13 retainers" EP3 should be cautious in raising troops. It mainly tells the story of Yoritomo and the Hojo family planning to rebel against the Heike family. The highlight is the "ghost press" of "Hoshiro River" Nishida Toshiyuki. Koki Mitani paid tribute to himself.
• "Don't Talk About Suspense" EP3, the carjacking case and the serial murder are solved together, and the pace is a little hasty. Yingtai left the stage temporarily, waiting for the final chapter to make a comeback. Several guest guests who were "upstage" in the middle also appeared in turn, and the arrangement was innovative.
• "Two People Who Don't Love" EP2-3, Takahashi promised to go to Kishii Yukino's house to pretend to be her boyfriend in order to eat crabs all his life. Kishii couldn't stand the rigid concept of his family and left the table angrily. In addition, works that focus on ethnic minorities often fall into a misunderstanding, treating the outside world and the majority as monolithic, when in fact, there are only individuals under the framework of the majority minority, heterosexual and homosexual (even sexual and asexual).
• "FIGHT SONG" EP2-3 is also a "fake drama for real" drama, Okada Keihe's one is much more reasonable and smooth, and the romantic light comedy and incurable disease complement each other. The title of the play is also a pun. In addition to the self-motivated cheering song, it is related to the professional fields of the male and female protagonists.

• "True Murder FLAG" EP13, Karina's voice and appearance are locked, and the crime process is about to come out.

※Review※

• "JIN Renyi" S2EP8-10, Ren ushered in the two most critical operations in his career: Ye Feng's laparotomy and Longma's craniotomy. Ye Feng desperately gave birth to An Shou for Ren, so that he could meet his beloved in the future; Ryoma died peacefully in the future, after creating a new world for Ren. Ren said that the most profound impression on him in the Edo period was the human touch. People laughed more and laughed more, and all the convenience and safety were just an illusion created by civilization.

• "Even so, Life Continues" EP10 Forgiveness Journey: Yang Gui finds Futaba in the phone booth, because the island is at the temple fair, Wen Zai traps himself in the swimming pool, Yang Gui rescues him without hesitation, Futaba, who was expecting his brother to commit suicide a moment ago, burst into tears, Ying Tai finally A long line of leniency is moving; the two mothers' rivalry is also quite wonderful. Sakamoto Yuji said that the perpetrator and the victim seemed to be on the same boat, and they would never get off the boat for the rest of their lives. The only thing they could do was to discuss where the boat should go.

• "Bitter Sugar" EP9 is another "girls' meeting". Tsuji visits the door to explain the mental journey of Hengdao's love. Mari is eager to jump on the last train to get married and have children. Fan. The end of the film is Kotaro's invitation to go to Paris together, and the decision is reserved for the final return.

• After the S1 of the British drama "Belgravia", a pair of young nobles died one after another. The newly-born child was adopted by his grandparents to preserve the reputation of his beloved daughter. Years later, the inheritance of the wealthy family's wealth led to this past... The "Downton Abbey" team The 6-episode mini-series, there are shadows of Zhang Ailing and "Dream of Red Mansions" in the silk and bamboo.

• Marvel's "Venom 2", the special effects are really good, at least more charming than the Hulk.

• Jin Min's "Delusional Agent" EP10-13 is over. The last 4 episodes continue the chameleon-like narrative and expression. The camera switches back and forth between the inner world and the outer world. The climax adopts the mode of superheroes saving the world. ". If it weren't for his untimely death, Jin Min would definitely be involved in live-action movies like Anno Hideaki.
• Nolan's "TENET", re-watched 4K UHD at home, and the idea was not clearer. Perhaps as the protagonist said when he first met "Reverse Bullet", watching this movie probably requires a little intuition, and just focusing on solving puzzles is often counterproductive.
• Faye Wong released the Cantonese album "Di-Dar" in 1995, which was a step further on the basis of "Sky": the song title was unified with two words, the soundtrack was arranged coherently, and the lyrics were arranged by Lin Xi (Zhou Yaohui created the Mandarin song "Meteor"), the theme (On the surface) Settling on love... This is Faye Wong's penultimate Cantonese album, taking into account both personality expression and commercial elements, and it can be called the pinnacle. I used to like the widely sung "Ambiguous", but now every song sounds better than "Ambiguous": the title song "Di-Dar" has lyrics that correspond to "Crazy Thoughts"; The soundtrack already has the feeling of "Fable"; "Vacation" and "Lost" are a group, about the exploration and process of love; "Or" and "I Think" are a pair, about the communication and isolation of love; "Enjoy" and "Half" expresses the possession and demarcation of love. Lin Xi also does not forget to incorporate Buddhist elements into the lyrics (your ambition is only for me), and introduces a lot of function words (such as this but nothing has happened). In addition, the album cover photo has a clear meaning. Faye Wong is standing in front of the butterfly decorative board, wearing a white shirt, and all the colors and highlights are outside the body.
