The unfortunate came to the north

Philip, the post office manager, is facing a "mid-life crisis" just like Mr. Ni. After ten years of being a middle-level cadre, it is difficult to develop his career. Although his wife is beautiful, she turns her nose and eyes on him, and she doesn't show him a good face all day long. Although the French girl is open, but this big brother can't get in, he can only think of other things. He tried every means to be transferred to the south coast, hoping to please his wife. Who would have thought that the buddy who was the personnel manager was bribed with money, and the fat shortage that he almost got was made by a disabled person. Of course, he was scolded by his wife again. In desperation, he took a risk, pretending to be a disabled person to apply for preferential treatment, and wanted to be transferred to another resort. The superior sent someone to come for a routine check, and he was comfortable in a wheelchair, and he almost slipped through the border. It's a pity that at the end of seeing off the guest, he stood up triumphantly, that's a shame.
Bad luck is often self-inflicted. Philip was therefore transferred to a post office in northern Lille as a post office. In 2008, this kind of thing happened in countless Chinese companies, and everyone understood what "post adjustment and salary adjustment" meant. It's just that Philip was not wronged, so he had to bite the bullet and take office in the legendary impoverished, backward, barbaric and ignorant North.
Northerners, regardless of age or gender, are called "Beibei" and speak "Beibei language". In the eyes of southerners, the "Beibei" are dirty and rude, and the north is cold and barren, and can freeze people's toes. Philip took three steps and turned back, but even when the traffic police caught him driving below the minimum speed, they were sympathetic to him. When he got there, the small post office was a bit sloppy, and the dormitory for him didn't even have furniture, so he could only stay at the subordinate's home. "Beijing Beiyu" was indeed jerky and difficult to understand, and he made a lot of jokes because of it.
However, he gradually discovered that the "Beibei" people are very enthusiastic and take good care of him, the dry cheese there is not bad, it is not a bad thing that everyone likes to drink, and even the weather is not so cold. The most important thing is that because his wife sympathizes with his "poor" experience, his relationship with him has been greatly improved, because his wife doesn't believe that the north is a good place at all, so he can only follow his wife and make up some lies to fool him.
This film called "Welcome to the North" swept across Europe with the story of this hapless man, and even surpassed "Escape from the Tiger's Mouth" at the box office, setting a French box office record. The difference between "Northern Beiyu" and French has created a lot of jokes. But the warmth and simple life attitude of the "Beibei" people seem to be the biggest charm of the movie.
At the end of the film, Philip finally let his wife see that the north is not so bad. They lived happily in the north and became friends with the "Northern North". Three years later, Philip was finally transferred to the south, but he was reluctant to leave with snot and tears. Just like the unlucky guy who always feels that he is unlucky, but in fact he finds out that it is not so unlucky after passing, is it really a transfer to be transferred to the south?
