A magical and wonderful land, a jubilant and unforgettable time, a group of amiable and lovely doctors, a journey of mixed feelings growth. From November 21, the TV series "Welcome to McNuggets Village", which shows the ups and downs of the Chinese foreign aid medical team in a foreign country, will be broadcast on the stars, and the funny and ** plot will make the audience want to stop. Now that the TV series is about to come to an end, are you still unsatisfied?Let's take a look at how the original book of the same name tells this story.
Recently, the reality-themed feature ** "Welcome to McLe Village" was launched by Zhejiang Literature and Art Publishing House and Migu platform, created by Liang Zhenhua, a famous film and television screenwriter and producer.
Different medical themes, African style is unforgettable.
Milele, which means "forever" in Swahili Africa, is the location of the Chinese medical team in the book, which contains a beautiful vision of China-Africa friendship for a long time. "Welcome to McNuggets Village" tells the growth story of Ma Jia, a doctor who is in a difficult situation in his life, goes abroad, goes into Africa, and finally becomes an excellent foreign-aid medical worker in a distant and unfamiliar but vast place.
There are a lot of film and television dramas with medical backgrounds and **, but "Welcome to McNule Village" is still very different, "General medical works mostly focus on social issues such as the current situation of medical treatment, hospital workplace, doctor-patient relationship, etc., and the narrative focuses on the strong plot events of saving lives and helping the injured, gathering interpersonal relationships in a single department, and focusing on telling the individual story of the protagonist." Liang Zhenhua said, "The medical plot of "Welcome to McNuggets Village" is to strengthen the highlights of the story and the concentration of the story, it is not a simple medical work, but an emotional life story, a realism. In "Welcome to McNugget Village", there is no strong protagonist group, some are imperfect but real ordinary people, they have their own bright colors, and they also have trivial troubles, "I believe that such a presentation can resonate with everyone." ”
In order to make this work more vivid and real, the main creative team went to Africa to collect research, "breaking our vague and unknown impression of Africa." Liang Zhenhua recalled that everyone went to the local hospital to collect wind together, and found that the limited medical conditions of the local hospital and the condition of the patients were far beyond everyone's expectations, "I was very impressed that the local patients respected the doctors very much and treated their injuries according to the doctor's instructions. The young doctors at Kikwete Heart Center also break our stereotype of Africans, who are hardworking and down-to-earth, and want to devote themselves to the medical cause of their home country and contribute to their fellow citizens with what they have learned. ”
Liang Zhenhua and the members of the main creative team integrated what they saw and heard in Africa into the creation of the script, including many small things that we are not familiar with in the daily life of local residents, such as the auction production and sale of fish in the local fishing market, and the members of the medical team will find "cabbage" to buy vegetables, and the "cabbage" can quickly collect the required dishes, and the Africans who take "slow" as a mantra are very slow to do things, but they are very fast ...... driving"We also added these interesting little details to the play. ”
* On the whole, the overall narrative direction and context are consistent with the play. "There will be some minor adjustments, after all, there may be slight adjustments depending on the specific situation and difficulties encountered. **The detailed description may be more delicate, and more space should be used to describe the mental journey of the characters. ”
It took two years to create, and the meaning of realism is full.
Welcome to McNuggets Village is a long story that Liang Zhenhua planned and created for two years, in which Liang Zhenhua also read a large number of foreign aid medical materials in the past 60 years, and interviewed a number of foreign aid doctors at home and abroad who are carrying out foreign aid missions and have left foreign aid medical posts.
In terms of reading experience, this is a smooth and easy to read, and the style is relaxed and pleasant. The editor in charge of this book told reporters, "The book takes Ma Jia's growth story as the main line, and integrates the literary metaphor of Hemingway's "Snow on Mount Kilimanjaro". "Welcome to McNuggets Village" has two very recommended points, one is the uniqueness of the selection of materials, and the other is the practical significance of the content, "Before the TV series was broadcast, our editorial team went to Beijing to have further exchanges with Mr. Liang Zhenhua and the TV drama creation team, and accidentally learned that the characters in the book have corresponding prototypes, and the plots such as the promotion of heparin caps, the differences between Chinese and foreign medical concepts, and the exposure to infectious diseases are all true stories encountered by the Chinese foreign aid medical team over the years. "This book not only takes readers to have an in-depth understanding of foreign aid medical treatment, but also has a more comprehensive understanding of African culture, the differences between China and Africa, and the overseas life of Chinese people. ”
