Noodle Paste Xishi

"Noodle Paste Xi Shi" takes Lin Ji's Noodle Pastry Shop in Quanzhou Old Street as the stage and tells the story of the inheritor Lin Wanmei who protects the ancestral craftsmanship. Someone coveted the old shop's land. When modern technology impacted traditional skills, she drew strength from her great-grandmother Lin Shuiyue's Notes from the Republic of China - that yellowed album contained the wisdom of using Nanyin tunes to convey information, the courage to use noodle paste to save patriots during the war, and the ancient philosophy of "three dryings and three dryings" to make threads perfect. From using AR technology to restore anti-Japanese recipes to disclosing secret recipes to practice "equality in food," Lin Wanmei, her son Chen Xing, and Nanyin artist Chen Shouzheng, through the collision of stoves and codes, fireworks and string sounds, revealed the female code of 80 years ago: noodles need to be stretched to gain strength, and life must go through ups and downs to show resilience. When the deaf-mute apprentice Ah Mo took the rhinoceros horn spoon, and when the digital exhibition in the Forbidden City reflected the noodle drawings of three generations, this endless bowl of hot paste has long surpassed the food itself and become the bloodline connecting the past and the future, witnessing the taste of life that every ordinary person has brewed with perseverance and warmth in the torrent of the times.
