Teresa Teng in Japanese eyes
slideshowp227 September 2020
Warning: Spoilers
To be honest, to be picky, the Japanese TV asahi heavily built to commemorate Teresa teng died ten years special production series, is absolutely can't read Chinese: clearly how much Japan round-faced actress how many, must find a long face yoshino kimura to play, is really far away and the appearance of Teresa teng gap; Why do Teresa Teng's family speak standard Japanese when they live in Taiwan? Of course, since even Pierre, a Frenchman, could speak Japanese to Teresa for the first time, let alone the Teresa's family; The screenplay is based on the biography "My home is on the other side of the mountain -- The Truth of Teresa Teng's tenth Year" written by Japanese writer Yoshihiro Ota, which obviously magnifies the Japanese role in Teresa Teng's life.

Japanese television, which is known for its rigorous production, made a number of outrageous mistakes in the drama, such as appearing the national flag and the SAR flag in the Hong Kong scene in 1973, Teresa Teng's girls' Generation in the Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall, but Taiwan netizens pointed out that the memorial hall was built 80 years ago, and so on.

So, if it's wrong, it's not worth mentioning. But, if you leave aside the minutiae, the show is actually quite well filmed. Although Kanai Kimura looks completely different from Teresa Teng, after half an hour, if it is not true, she can gradually accept her image. After all, she has worked hard on Teresa Teng's character and details. The biggest success of this TV series is to grasp the tone of Teresa Teng's sad life. As her mother said to her, it should not be connected with politics, but her life is always burdened by politics. She served in Taiwan, but Taiwan did not allow her to return. After the reform and opening up in the mainland, her songs were quietly circulated in the mainland, but were banned by the authorities; She wanted to return to the mainland for a concert, but the sudden political change caused by someone's death left her feeling outraged and unable to perform in Hong Kong, and of course she couldn't fulfill her dream of performing in Tiananmen Square. The mainland does not want her, Taiwan does not want her, so finally she chose to go abroad, Japan, the United States, France, and finally died in Thailand. Her hometown abandoned her, she also abandoned her hometown, her life is not sad?

Her emotional life as dry, young fell in love with Tan Addie because of family opposition to her singer identity and abandoned her; She later fell in love with Pierre in France, but in fact it was more of an unrequited love. Everyone could see that he was just a French boy who ate soft food, and could even be said to have died in the hands of that boy at last.

But who can hear that Teresa Teng, with her sweet singing voice, had a very unhappy and sad life?

Teresa Teng is one of the few Chinese singers to break into Japan's extremely closed entertainment industry and is widely recognized. The sales of several of her albums in Japan have exceeded one million, and the fact that TV Asahi in Japan has invested heavily in producing such a single TV series after 13 years also proves her influence in Japan. The single series, produced by a second-rate actor, has been rated at 15% in Japan, which is not bad.

The TV series touches on the political background of Taiwan, Taiwan and the three places, which is actually very sensitive, but it can remind us not to forget some history.
