Shanghai Family

In the morning light of a Shanghai alley, three generations of the Lin family guard a century-old silk and satin shop called "Old Hengchang". The lotus flowers on the embroidery, the stars on the wooden scales, and the scent of osmanthus in the old soup kitchen create the fireworks background of the city. Lin Xiaoyun is the "backbone" of the family. She was an executive of a multinational company but chose to return and use her business wisdom to protect the "slow culture" of Old Hengchang; her younger brother Lin Hao is a "mechanical restorer" who squatted at the entrance of an alley to repair bicycles for thirty years, using old skills to connect the past and the future; her younger sister Xiaoyun is a "successor of Suzhou embroidery" and used gold thread to embroider "Shikumen" at the Paris Haute Couture show, stunning the world with oriental aesthetics. They have faced demolition crises, business war attacks, and generational differences - the wooden beams of Old Hengchang are carved with the old traces of 1923, and also bear the question "should tradition give way to the times?"; The unsent marriage certificate hidden in the embroidered quilt of the grandmother before her death is the regret of the previous generation and the mission of this generation. This is a story about "inheritance" - it is not the stubbornness of guarding the old house, but the use of business to activate tradition, the use of technology to empower ingenuity, and the use of love to connect generations. When the virtual cinnamon of the Yuan Universe floated in the century-old workshop of Old Hengchang, when Su embroidery appeared on the T stage of Paris Fashion Week, and when the third generation of the Lin family stood at the forefront of the times with the "intangible cultural heritage business plan", people finally understood: The so-called "Shanghai family" is the fireworks in the alley, the warmth of old craftsmanship, and the "long scroll of culture" woven with sincerity by generations of people.
