The time period in which the story takes place is unknown. The Wonka global lottery looks like it happened in the 20th century, and the home of the protagonist, the little boy Charlie, and the appearance of the Wonka chocolate factory are similar to the British Empire described by Dickens during the industrial revolution in the 18th and 19th centuries. The film is about deliberately blurring this concept of the era, or it can be said that the concepts and values it conveys are irrelevant to a specific era.
Willy Wonka is a well-known candy tycoon in the world. The chocolate candy products of the same name are well-known and exported to home and abroad. However, Wonka's chocolate factory has always been a mystery to the world. After discovering that competitors disguised as workers and infiltrated the factory to steal chocolate recipes, Wonka drove away all the workers in a rage. While traveling on a tropical desert island, Wonka accidentally discovered the Oompa Loompa race, an isolated cacao-eating race. After introducing the industrious and disciplined Oompa Loompa to the chocolate factory, Wonka can not only keep the recipe secret, but also give full play to his imagination of making chocolate.
From the outside, the chocolate factory designed by Wonka looks like a heavily guarded fortress; inside, there is a modern chocolate factory with various automated equipment and assembly lines. This is the world of chocolate, and even the lawn above the ground is made of chocolate. On the grass, on the trees, there are chocolate pumpkins and chocolate apples everywhere. There are waterfalls churning chocolate like the only one in the world; rivers and lakes of chocolate; hiring squirrels to pry open nuts.
It is hard to imagine that Wonka, who loves chocolate so much, was born in a family of dentists. His father, who has witnessed numerous cavities throughout his career, forbade Wonka from using high-sugar foods such as chocolate when he was a child. In order to prevent stealing food, his father installed a jig on Wonka's mouth and fastened the braces. On Halloween nights, the snacks that Wonka asked for from neighbors were also set on fire by his father. Finally, the rebellious Wonka stole a taste of chocolate and couldn't help but fall in love with the taste of chocolate. From then on Wonka said goodbye to his father and started his indissoluble bond with chocolate.
The business is getting bigger. Until a haircut one day, Wonka accidentally found a white hair. Like thunder. Wonka has no queen, it is time to consider the question of succession.
Wonka has issued five raffle tickets around the world with the chocolate sales, and any teenager lucky enough to win a raffle ticket will be given a tour of the factory. From the development of the later story, it is not so much that the five teenagers received the golden coupons inadvertently, it is better to say that Wonka carefully selected them, and Wonka designed the five teenagers to get the lottery tickets on purpose.
The five teenagers have different personalities. It has to be said that apart from the protagonist of this film, the poor boy Charlie, the difference in character of the other four really makes people doubt Wonka's vision. The first teenager, gluttony (a fat child who grew up in a butcher's shop); the second teenager, greed (thirst for fame and fortune, practicing dance taekwondo like crazy, chewing gum all day in order to break the world record); the third teenager, Pride (the rich businessman's father is obedient to him and spoiled); the fourth teenager, anger (violence, utility) - the fifth teenager, the protagonist of this film Charlie's family is poor, his father is unemployed, his mother's career is pending, and his family income is meager. Live in a dilapidated cottage with grandparents and grandparents. Although poor, under the influence of a kind family, Charlie is kind and has the most positive views.
Knowing that the lottery tickets could be sold on the black market, Charlie offered to sell the lottery tickets at one point to help the family's financial situation worsened by the loss of his father. Under the persuasion of his grandfather, Charlie gave up the plan to sell lottery tickets and decided to visit the chocolate factory with his grandfather. People are printing more and more money every year, but there are only five lottery tickets.
Wonka's chocolate factory stunned the five teenagers and their relatives. Wonderful, Wonka designed traps to eliminate the top four teenagers one by one: falling into the chocolate pool, eating chewing gum chocolate to expand and transforming, being carried into the garbage cellar by squirrels, and short in shape after crossing. Military regulations believe that these four endings have meanings. For example, Sailor Moon gets fat and deformed after eating chewing gum chocolate, which corresponds to the swelling and arrogance in the character of the boy. As for the other references, this article is not far-fetched. After each teenager is eliminated, the Oompa Loompa dwarf will come on stage to perform a song and dance that summarizes the characteristics of the guests, which also shows that Wonka already knows the candidates in advance (the same is true for the self-introduction section of the teenagers when they enter the factory). Finally, in the chocolate factory, it is similar to the imperial examination in the imperial examination.
Lucky Charlie sticks to the end of the game. Wonka decides to give Charlie the factory inheritance on the condition that Charlie give up his family and move into the factory alone. Charlie insists that he move into the factory with his family. Uncompromising, unhappy break up.
Charlie teaches Wonka, who has a distorted view, that the way his family cares for his children may be misunderstood by his children. Charlie takes Wonka back to Wonka's dentist father's house. Dr. Wonka was moved to tears when he saw Wonka's toothy son. Wonka accepted Charlie's conditions, and Charlie successfully obtained the factory and inherited Wonka's sweet career.
