Through the life changes and growth experiences of two generations, it depicts the relationship between four families in the changing times. Typical Chinese neighbors' warm family, friendship and childhood love stories.
The personality traits and lifestyle of each character in "Our Days" are very real, and the three families have their own typical characteristics.
Liu Shuxia, a literary youth, and Wang Xianping, a demobilized soldier, are immersed in their own world of poetry and literature, and the other is full of machismo. The collision is full of dramatic tension.
Dongfang Yushu and Fu Ying are a combination of strong women and weak men. One is outspoken and does not hold grudges, and the other is gentle and considerate and loves to make music. The two have become the humorous roles of the drama.
Yang Dashan and Fang Hui don't care about criticism and want to be together.
The characters of the children of the three families are also well shaped, each with its own characteristics.
The hot-tempered "Kid King" Wang Xuehua has played all over the alleys since she was a child, and she can be called a representative of justice.
Dongfang Hong, who loves to cry and loves, has a cowardly personality, but has a delicate mind and always takes good care of his friends.
Mingzhong, who is gentle and upright, studied well. Although he was humiliated because of a congenital disease since childhood and was troubled by illness throughout his growing up, he was still confident and self-reliant, and worked hard to get into a good university and become a doctor.
The group portraits of the three families portrayed in "Our Days" are not only real and three-dimensional, but the stories with a sense of time are also enough to resonate. The dramas are also big dramas of the era, and they all tell the emotion of "the plain is the truth", but they are told from different angles.
The story of "The World" took place in the late 1970s, and revolved around the three brothers and sisters of the Zhou family in the "photographic film". In the span of nearly 50 years, the life of the protagonist Zhou Bingkun has experienced various twists and turns.

Wang Xuehua protected Yang Siyu who was being bullied by other children, but she was slapped several times by her father Wang Xianping instead.
Wang Mingzhong felt inferior because of his physical defects, and his grandmother's bowl of egg custard was full of distress and affection.
The turmoil caused by an electronic piano broke the friendship between Wang Xuehua and Dongfanghong, but Dongfanghong tried his best to make up for it. The two decided that they should not quarrel for more than ten minutes in the future.
Fei Xiang's handsome figure on the Spring Festival Gala reminded Wang Xuehua of her uncle Wang Xian'an who was in prison. When she went to visit him, she tried hard to hold back her tears, and danced and danced to reproduce Fei Xiang's performance for him.
The emotional tension between these neighbors, close friends, intergenerational generations, and children was full of tension, which made many viewers "cry".
Eye-catching retro nostalgia

Thermos bottles, old pendulum clocks, green refrigerators, "28" bicycles, and a bowl of sweet water with honey that were scrambled by siblings, all of which show the sense of the times when supplies were scarce.
The retro-style outfits of the characters in period dramas can also evoke memories of the audience.
In "Set Sail: When the Wind Blows" aired last year, Xiao Chuang is a young man who is deeply influenced by Hong Kong films such as "The True Colors of a Hero". Shirts, flared trousers, and leather jackets with fur collars are his favorites.
There are also Big Brother, the video hall, the Beijing Asian Games mascot Panda Panpan, and the CCTV Spring Festival Gala hosted by Zhao Zhongxiang and Ni Ping, all of which reveal the atmosphere of the 1990s.
