Dogs are the most loyal friends of humans. They have absolute trust and obedience to humans. In times of crisis, they can even sacrifice their lives for humans.
"Speechless Loyalty" directed by Tan Yizhi is adapted from the 2007 true story "The Old Man and the Dog" that caused a sensation on the Internet.
This movie has no cool stunts, no beautiful and eye-catching scenes, and no gathering of celebrities. Even the director's shooting techniques are a bit immature.
Although this movie was set in a rural setting with very little investment, it was basically shot in original locations, and the film production was a bit rough, but it directly touched people's hearts because of its down-to-earth atmosphere and its simple and profound emotional connotation. , therefore, it also touched countless dog lovers and kind-hearted viewers.
This movie was released in September last year without any promotion or publicity. It basically relied on word of mouth from the audience and comments on the Internet to attract countless fans.
1. The encounter between the old man and the dog
An accident when he was young caused Lao Yu to lose his legs. From then on, he never left his kang. His mother had been taking care of him for many years, and after his mother's death, his sister-in-law took over the care of him.
Lao Yu felt that he was a drag. He struggled to get by with deep self-blame and helplessness, and his temper became very bad. He didn't even bother to talk to his brother and sister-in-law, and he always ignored their concerned greetings and advice.
He was a man unwilling to succumb to his fate. Although he was paralyzed in bed, he still learned how to repair household appliances from the radio, and often helped his neighbors repair small household appliances at home.
In order to one day be able to see the outside world, he devoted himself to designing a cart that could carry him out of the house. Although everyone thought that the car he designed was impossible to succeed, through his unremitting efforts and the help of his relatives, the cart that could carry him out of his house was successfully created.
Seeing this, I can’t help but give Lao Yu a thumbs up. Although fate was cruel to him, he did not succumb to it. He did not let himself become a real useless person, but used his wisdom and hands to make himself a useful person.
There was a little Labrador that escaped from the dog meat restaurant and was brought to Lao Yu's house by accident.
The puppy was disgusted by Lao Yu at first, but thinking that the stray dog ??was as lonely and pitiful as him, Lao Yu couldn't bear to abandon it, so he reluctantly kept the puppy.
When Lao Yu spoke to the puppy, it barked in response; when Lao Yu dropped his pen, he couldn’t pick it up, so the puppy helped him pick it up on the table; when there was a fire at night, the puppy kept barking. He woke up from his sleep and thus averted a fire.
Lao Yu gradually fell in love with this puppy and named it "Second Goods". He said, give it such a name so that it can make a living.
"Secret" plays with Lao Yu every day and listens to Lao Yu talking to it. It has become Lao Yu's best playmate.
With company and spiritual sustenance, Lao Yu finally became cheerful. His life seemed to have hope, and he had the motivation to live well.
A year later, the "second-hand" also changed from a little puppy to a strong and strong "big man".
2. The witty and courageous "second-hand guy"
After Lao Yu successfully built his truck, he started to earn money by repairing electrical appliances on the streets. The younger brother used a bicycle to drag Lao Yu on the cart to the street to pick up work, delivering him in the morning and picking him up in the evening.
The "bad guy" who was not with Lao Yu didn't understand why Lao Yu didn't bring him with him, and he was so angry that he didn't eat all day. Hearing the sound of Lao Yu coming back, it rushed forward to greet him, as affectionately as a relative he hadn't seen for many years.
The next day, the "second-hand guy" consciously sent the Lao Yu brothers to the entrance of the village and squatted on the ground to watch them off. Unexpectedly, before they had gone very far, this "scheming" "second-rate" started his tracking plan.
Erhuo's tracking skills are amazing. He sometimes follows up and sometimes hides. When hiding, he always pokes his head to observe the "enemy situation". This is not a dog at all. It is simply a " spy".
Finally, it successfully followed the target to its destination-the place where Lao Yu set up his stall.
When I went home to get my things, I passed a bridge and Lao Yu couldn't get on. The "second-hand guy" suddenly had an idea and grabbed the tow rope and dragged Lao Yu's cart up.
A dog dragging a cart and an old man galloping on the road, what a heartwarming and loving scene that touches the heart.
From then on, the "second-hand guy" became Lao Yu's "rickshaw driver".
The "second-hand man" took Lao Yu to the streets every day to pick up work, and the wind, frost, rain and snow continued for 11 years without interruption. They are both partners and comrades-in-arms. With each other's company, they are both hardworking and happy.
"Secret" is still Lao Yu's life-saving dog.
On the way home, Lao Yu and the cart rolled over to the bridge and almost fell into the river. Lao Yu lay on the bank unable to move. The clever "bad guy" used all his strength to tug on the rope on his body. After repeating this action many times, he finally broke free from the rope and ran home with Lao Yu's younger brother and neighbors to rescue Lao Yu. .
Seeing the scene of Lao Yu being rescued, I once again couldn't control my tears of excitement. "Second Husband" makes people admire and move people. It is just a dog, but it can sense people's dangerous situations and use its wisdom to save people from danger. It is a well-deserved hero!
Lao Yu and the "second-hand guy" also rescued the shop owner's daughter from the traffickers, which made the shop owner who originally disliked Lao Yu look at the duo of "the old man and the dog" with admiration and was extremely grateful. .
The story of Lao Yu and the "second-hand dog" spread all over the country, and a dog lover came here to buy Lao Yu's "second-hand dog." < /p>
For Lao Yu, it doesn’t matter whether the “second-hand dog” is a famous dog or a local dog. It is no longer just a dog, it is also Lao Yu’s companion and his relative. How much does it cost? A treasure you can’t even buy.
But "when the house leaks, it rains all night." Lao Yu's brother had a car accident, and his niece was admitted to college. They all needed money, but the family was still struggling to make ends meet.
I heard that the "second-rate dog" was a famous dog and could be sold at a good price. The impatient siblings persuaded Lao Yu to sell the dog to raise money, but Lao Yu scolded him severely.
In desperation, Lao Yu made the painful decision to sell the "second-hand goods" to the rich man. With this money, all problems will be solved.
3. The separation of the old man and the dog
Lao Yu finally exchanged the "second-hand goods" for four thousand yuan. The moment he took the money, his face was full of joy. Frustrated, reluctant and helpless, three words came out of his mouth with difficulty: "It's not... selling...".
But he is obviously selling "second-hand goods" and the money is still in his hand. How can he say he is not selling?
The "second-hand" who was held in the hands of others turned back three times, and was reluctantly dragged into the car by his new owner. I could watch Lao Yu gradually move away from me from the back window...
At this moment, what Lao Yu lost was not his dog but his family. One can imagine his heartache.
The younger siblings think that a dog is just a dog, a beast, and a cheap life, and it is natural to exchange it for the husband’s life-saving money.
The store owner whose child was rescued by Lao Yu and the "second-hand goods" scolded Lao Yu for being stupid and shouldn't have sold the second-hand goods no matter how difficult it was.
"I'm not selling..." Lao Yu was silent for a while.
"The bastard has been with me for so many years. He can't eat well or sleep well, and he still has to take care of me, a crippled old man. He has suffered a lot of hardships and suffered a lot of sins. I have wronged him. Now he is better, he I can live a stable life and spend my old age in peace!"
In Lao Yu's heart, he is not selling "second-hand goods", he just hopes that "second-hand goods" will no longer suffer with him, he wants to give Its a happy old age.
After leaving the "second-rate", Lao Yu grew a lot of gray hair overnight. He often fell into deep thought and daze.
Even though "Secret" lives in a villa, it can be seen that he is not happy at all. He is completely wilted and lifeless. Even with the high-end dog food in front of him, he had no appetite at all.
Maybe, it misses Lao Yu too much; maybe, it knows that its days are numbered. When the new owner was not paying attention, it began its journey back to Lao Yu. After experiencing hunger, being attacked by wild dogs, living in a bridge cave, wading through water with injuries, and running thousands of miles, the "second-rate" finally died with scars. Appeared in front of Lao Yu.
The moment he saw Lao Yu, the "bad guy" no longer had the energy to be coquettish and intimate with him.
"Let's go, second-hand guy, let's go home. You hold me for the rest of your life, and this last time, I'll hold you!" Lao Yu pulled the dying "second-hand guy" back home.
"Secret" finally slept on the kang with Lao Yu. This was the place he had wanted to sleep since he was a child.
When I woke up the next day, the "second-hand goods" disappeared. Lao Yu looked around and finally found it by the bridge they often passed. This time, the "second-hand goods" left Lao Yu forever.
4. Love dogs and avoid killing them
For people, dogs cannot be their only friends and emotional sustenance. They will have their own family and friends, and they will Have your own business.
For a dog, the owner may be the only one in its life, and loving the owner is its career. A dog's feelings are simple and dedicated. Once it recognizes its owner, it will stick to it and accompany the owner until it grows old!
Just like Lao Yu said, "A dog will never despise its owner. If you give it half a bun, it will wander with you for a lifetime."
Dogs vs. Humans The loyalty and love between people exceed the sincerity between people in real society.
We should respect the lives of dogs and repay their loyalty and dedication to humans with sincere love and careful care.
Take care of your dogs and avoid killing them for food!
