Spicy World: Hunan Chapter

Number of episodes: 24 (two episodes per week, prime time on Friday and Saturday nights) Genre: humanities documentary/urban observation drama/slow variety show mashup Produced by: Hunan Satellite TV × Mango TV × CCTV Documentary Channel jointly produced Chief Director: Wang Tian (compared to the quality of "Longing for Life") × Chen Xiaoqing (compared to the taste of "A Bite of China") This is a humanistic documentary filmed in the "drama" style. The camera is unpretentious and follows a virtual "young man from another province", A Xiang, as he gets off the train at Changsha South High-speed Railway Station, chatting about fans, staying up late, quarreling, starting a business, being nostalgic, and dreaming. Each episode has a theme, chasing the temper of a city like a drama. There are crayfish shop owners who are still queuing up at three in the morning, middle school students who memorize "Qinyuanchun·Changsha" in Juzizhou, Changsha engineers who sell construction machinery all over the world, and grandmas who weave tapestry in stilted buildings in western Hunan. They don't talk about big principles, they just live a hot life. Spicy is the first bite; stubbornness is the sweetness after swallowing. This is not a film that teaches you "how to travel to Hunan", but a film that makes you want to buy a ticket to live in Hunan after watching it. Slogan "It's not the food that's spicy, it's the people." "Hunan Satellite TV understands everything about Hunan." "After 24 episodes, I want to live in Changsha for half a year."
