The low-level people in the great era farmed just to survive. Let the neglected be seen.
This is a social documentary book about observing Chinese villages and towns.
In the past five years, the author has traveled all over north and south China, visiting more than 1,000 villages and towns, conducting field research on land, farmers and crops. Their interview videos were released on the Internet platform, and many videos exceeded one million views, sparking heated discussions and becoming popular on Bilibili, with cumulative views exceeding 50 million.
In the city, whether it is the completion of a building, the opening of a new station, or the renovation of shanties or suburban development... There will always be media reports. The city has no shortage of media flash and attention. But what about villages and towns? It's not that farmers don't know how to talk, it's because they lack attention. "If no one pays attention to the villages and towns, we will take the microphone to the fields, urban villages, and factories and let farmers and workers speak."
The author chats with farmers in the field. They are farmers who cultivate the land, cut sugar cane, digger of lotus roots, farmers of silkworms, jasmine farmers, etc. Through sincere communication with the villagers, he gradually peels off the poetic filter that everyone originally attached to the countryside, and presents the original appearance of Chinese villages and towns. In addition, we also pay attention to rural empty-nest elderly people, left-behind children, rural teachers, as well as young migrant workers with low education, rural women who go to cities to do housework, and self-employed people who are far away from their hometown to make a living. The book also discusses food crops such as rice, wheat, and corn, as well as villages and towns in regions such as the North China Plain, the Northeast Plain, the Loess Plateau, and the terraces of Guangxi... The book retains the original interviews (dialects) and selects more than 270 real photos. Through people's simple narratives, it presents the survival reality and helplessness of the low-level people in the great era, and also reflects the simple and warm background of farmers.
"How much money can you earn from farming?" "Do rural elderly people have pension insurance?" "Is working in the city just a matter of working hard?"... It focuses on the real difficulties faced by rural people, awakens the awareness of villages and towns, and cares about food and vegetables. As a major agricultural country, our country hopes that young people will pay more attention to the topic of agriculture, rural areas and farmers.
Use lenses and words to restore the countryside you have never known, so that the neglected can be seen.
