Introduction to "Tao Te Ching Health Secrets":
Zhang Zhiwei, a 28-year-old urban white-collar worker, suffers from insomnia, anxiety and sub-health. On the rooftop in the early morning, he encounters the mysterious old man Li Er - he is Lao Tzu who has traveled through thousands of years. The old man holds a green wooden staff, with new shoots on the top of the staff that sometimes wither and sometimes bloom, and light green smoke lingering around him, conveying the true meaning of health preservation in Chapter 81 of the Tao Te Ching in the neon lights of the city.
Each episode is 5 minutes long, with one chapter and one secret. From "quietness and contemplation" to cure insomnia, to "weak and non-competitive" to resolve workplace difficulties; from "five-color blindness" to combat mobile phone addiction, to "faith and words are not beautiful" to break the traffic myth. The old man turned into smoke and passed away. Zhiwei grew from a confused apprentice to the inheritor of "Guigentang". He and Wu Ming, a gentle doctor, became acquaintances from strangers. Through the rotation of the four seasons, he realized that health care is not a pile of skills, but a life philosophy of returning to one's roots and reviving one's life.
The play has eighty-one scenes, gently deconstructing the anxiety of modernity from a female perspective, and illuminating ancient wisdom with supernatural imagery. When the last wisp of green smoke dispersed into the sky and earth, Zhiwei finally understood that the best way to maintain health is to no longer be obsessed with "preserving health" itself. This is a healing short drama for urban women and a quiet reply to the anxious era.
