Maybe, in the hearts of these directors and screenwriters, the definition of poverty and ordinary life is already different from ours.
Maybe the directors want to be down-to-earth, but in their view, living in a single apartment with an elevator, driving to work, working as a white-collar worker in high-end office buildings, going to a bar for a drink after work, isn't this the life of ordinary people?
These are still very poor ordinary people's lives, where both the male and female leads can only drive a BYD, can only live in a small two-bedroom apartment, and worry about parking fees and utility bills, is this not down-to-earth?
