" This film points out the difficulties and preciousness of talent nurturing in local practices through the role of assistant, “Wang Ming-He”.  It shows the main character’s changes through this nurturing process as an assistant. By this film, the audience can find out how he got started from a condition of being unfamiliar with residents of this old street, then gradually became familiar with them, and at last, even joyfully treated them as his family from the bottom of his heart.

 

 At the beginning of this film, the time went back to 2016 (the following statements will be written from an “I” perspective). In 2016, as a sophomore, I, Wang Ming-He, became a teaching assistant to help teachers in guiding students to know the Five-channel Harbor area and working together with teachers on the preservation of cultural genes.  Through the three-year experiences in student-guiding and teamwork, I gradually become familiar with the Five-channel area and know that Shennong St., as the center of Five-channel, was not only the focus of the suburb-business economy but also the street where the suburb-business culture is preserved most completely. At the end of 2017, the 300-year-old Shennong St. was invaded by vending machines.

 

Teachers in the team did not want to see the precious culture vanish.  Therefore, I followed them to take action to save the old street with the local association.  We wanted to retrieve the sentiments of the old street by organizing traditional lantern exhibitions through college students' participation. Young and inexperienced then, I often had to take a deep breath to get the courage to assist students in communicating with residents.  Sometimes, I even had to face their distrustful and suspicious look.

 

During the Dog-year lantern festival of 2018, the media gave very positive comments, and visitors continuously shared photos on IG and Facebook.  Then the residents started to greet me when they saw me. What a warm feeling it was!  I started to feel that I’m part of this neighborhood.

 

After the lantern exhibition, I had to face problems with graduation and getting a job. When my teacher asked me if I wanted to work hard with the old street residents, I didn’t hesitate to take this offer. Time flies so fast that it has been two years as an assistant. Overall, I have been related to Shennong St. for five years.

 

We have been holding several activities in Shennong Street these years.  The lantern exhibitions were the most wonderful among them. I follow teachers to paint the lanterns with students and residents together. The lanterns make Shennong Street look very beautiful and appealing. What moves me most is that silently, the street residents get united through holding lantern exhibitions

 

Now, in Shennong St., there have been various cultural activities, such as lectures and DIY courses, held by the project team, and various street games which are designed to get familiar with Shennong Street.  Furthermore, there have been numerous students who come here to have classes.

 

And of course, I have been here countless times. Welcome to Shennong Street. If you meet me, don’t forget to greet me. As the host, I’ll do my best to guide you to taste the beauty of this 300-year old street.   "
