Nishina wanders at the intersection of time and space

Mondo Culture Updated on 2024-02-21

When you are in a crowd and can only see the dense crowd in front of you, you know that you should make a choice, and you can think in the following two directions.

1. How to make time pass faster.

Second, how to make people a little less.

If you don't want time to slow down, you can't just roll up your cuffs and keep staring at the numbers on your dial; If you don't want to have fewer people in front, don't be the last person in the crowd. And if you're Nishina, you pick three, and you go wandering.

As one of the members of the five people, he has his own understanding of the concept of size, from the first ** "based on the world, looking at Haifeng" can be seen that big and small, for him is just a set of contrasts that can be deconstructed, this contrast and transformation, is a feature of his works, and also makes his thoughts somewhat philosophical, or jump difficult to understand, such as the song he composed according to the theme of the ideal world: "The Ideal of the World" He said: "The ideal world is the ideal of the world. ”

Hot search and after an overnight explosion

If you want to write Nishina, you can't do without Gojo people.

In the summer of 2020, after the broadcast of the variety show "Summer of the Band 2", the name of the band "Gojo Man" frequently appeared on the hot search, and the representatives of Gojo Ren and Shigeru also appeared in the public eye.

Initially, it was because their band changed the songs by themselves during the performance, and the original rehearsed song was replaced with "Daoshan Pretty Boy", which led to the lighting of the director team, all kinds of stage effects were invalid, and the judges' scoring list was almost invalid.

But the live performance of this "Daoshan Pretty Boy" is not bad, and even some of the painting style is strange, plus a very interesting interaction with the audience, the two of them have a middle scalp coat and leather shoes, a flower shirt and black sunglasses flip-flops, and a market atmosphere brought out of the urban village in the nineties.

"Daoshan Pretty Boy" tells the story of an unsuccessful gangster who regrets things in the detention center.

Why are you wearing your broken slippers Ah Daoshan Pretty Boy Why don't you cut your hair Ah Daoshan Pretty Boy You still ride your broken bicycle Lao Shishi (Haifeng dialect describes people very dragging) ......

As the lyrics indicate, their ** style is simple and naked, expressing its meaning directly, but leaving room for thought. Pretty boys in torn slippers, uncut hair, and riding broken bicycles are eager for new clothes, shoes, and hairstyles, but they can only gnaw on the dregs of reality on the fringes of society.

It is this kind of self-confidence, this kind of chic and casualness, and this sense of novelty that breaks the rules in variety shows, which makes the audience want to leave five people on this stage. Even after the band was eliminated, he persevered again and again to get them back.

They interacted with the audience in Mandarin with a strong southern accent, and Nishina called himself a "rural Takuya" and a "Guofu county" and said that his band was an "intellectual" and did not fight. The humorous relaxation of the two people, and the part that allows Gojo to interact with the audience is almost all the laughs of the first episode. Netizens who like to watch the excitement sent Wutiao people to the hot search on Weibo that night, and for a period of time afterward, they almost never came down.

The maturity of the work is one reason, but they say that the most important thing is that "the feeling is coming, and I can't stop it." ”

There is also the fame and fortune that comes with it.

The five-man band was formed in 2008, although it is "five-jo", but there are only two members from beginning to end, that is, Nishina and Mao Tao, two older young people from Haifeng County. The Gojo band's logo is also simple, a red plastic bag fluttering in the air.

Nishina has expressed their design idea: plastic is a naked reality. Plastic bags will float to every corner of the city, and it is this red plastic bag that carries the trophy of the runner-up of "Summer of the Band".

After that, the work of the Gojo people became very busy, and they needed to rush their homework like students on the last day of school, and they still seemed very indifferent, and they took the activities they could, and they didn't appear in front of the public frequently, and each time they appeared, they could give people a different feeling.

SITC and SITC's Gojo people

The two people are from the same county town - Haifeng, which is the art they create**.

Nishina met Mao Tao (Amao) in Guangzhou around 2003. At that time, Renke was still a student, and later Renke was a secondary school in arts and crafts, and went to a shell carving field for half a year. "I didn't want to paint for half a year, and I didn't want it. So he also resigned and came to Guangzhou to pursue his own ** path. In order not to steal business, he placed a carpet next to Shigeru to sell pirated books.

In the 80s of the last century, the reform and opening up, foreign things flowed into the country, and genuine discs from Europe, America and Japan were circulated to China in different ways because of poor sales or other reasons.

At that time, the culture was relatively open, and there were all kinds of books on the stalls, "of course, the best ones were commercial." Renke said in an interview with Xu Zhiyuan. At that time, what they had on the carpet every day was today's college students' textbooks; **That is, the teacher who comes to visit the stall; Friends are the ones who say hello. Their lives are still colorful.

Those old books and old discs are rooted in their minds, and they are also reflected in their artistic creation. The lyrics and narratives of "Story Collection", the theme of Jia Zhangke-style films, and the ** expression of Xiaohe, they are gradually growing up, together with SITC.

This is also the preciousness of their **, their existence is like a **camera, which can remember the past time, especially for people in the Hokkien-speaking region, and their ** can move people's hearts with sincerity.

Just as the desertification of the land will be accompanied by the withering of flowers and plants, the disappearance of the stall culture and dialect culture will also be accompanied by the withering of its culture, and the Gojo people, who have merged the two equally precious, are particularly valuable.

Nishina uses his unique perspective and expression to care about each other's life with his partners, record the worldly conditions around him with **, and then use ** to relax, express, and create. Feeling reality, accepting reality, understanding reality, and expressing reality are like the attitudes expressed in Gojo's works. It's also like some kind of "philosophy" of Nishina.

In 2009, the first ** "County Chronicle" of the Five Men was awarded the ** Award of the Year by Southern Weekly for the following reasons:

In the context of increasing entertainment, it is tantamount to the landscape painting of "prosperous China", and its rich originality highlights the ultimate meaning of ** - chanting the land and people under your feet. ”

Rural Takuya and Guofu counties

The self-proclaimed Rural Takuya and Guofu County are just a manifestation of Renko's humor, but some people will see Renna as Pang Meilang's fate, and after a night of explosion, he faces grassroots stars who seem out of place because the public can't react, but I don't think it fits.

One is Nishina's childhood, which is his self-growth, he does not regard material values as high or low, and his observation and acceptance of the world is more than Pang Meilang; The other is that he has the whole band to help him, and he also has a relatively reliable record label; In addition, he is irreplaceable in China, especially in the Pearl River Delta region of Guangdong.

Some have likened its existence to second-hand roses in Guangdong. It is the embodiment of a bygone era, an existence that cannot be ignored and can only be cherished. Despite being always labeled as "funny" and "earthy", Nishina never stopped, and neither did Gojo, and one day they will make a film of their own, a magical realist film in the style of Gojo people.

After all, the life born from the water has to be dug in the soil, and no matter how much water is added and how "tide" there is, he can give birth to a powerful life.

In a follow-up interview, they returned to Guangdong, where he and Xu Zhiyuan sat next to the small threshold on the side of the road in Shipai Village, in a cramped and winding alley, and there was no sunset. Renke tells Xu Zhiyuan about his thoughts on the "importance of mind wandering", and he gives a very vivid example; If a perfect apple is used to represent the rules, then there are thousands of apples in addition to this perfect apple, and these thousands of apples are also wonderful, and there is no need to destroy the perfect apple in the middle.

That is to say, the creation or expression of art can be a kind of free existence in a sense, it is a wild run after grasping an inspiration, and it does not need any mindset to guide, it itself has a majestic vitality.

At the same time, it was Nishina who told Shigeru that the band had reached a "bottleneck where a truck can drive in", and then they began to try to contact variety shows, and after gaining a short period of traffic and fame, they also began to return to their original lives, with the new things they felt after their experiences, and began to try more ** styles.

And Renke himself, he went to participate in the addition of another variety show that needed to sing and dance, "Brother Who Overcame Difficulties", because he didn't find anyone to go with him, he appeared on the stage as an individual, facing new challenges, although he insisted on reaching the finals, but unfortunately did not form a group.

At the same time, he is also preparing his own ** episode and trying to be an actor. At the beginning of this year, his first ** collection "Vulgar**" was successfully published. Next time, which field will he go to break through his bottleneck? Let's wait and see.

Nishina, Gojo people, their art is like their logo, the red plastic bag, it can be concrete or abstract, it can be expressed with ** or with images, no matter what, they dare to try. They wander in the mainstream "suburbs", where time and space overlap, in reality.
