幸福常在心 The Greatest Blessings are Seen with The Heart

春节，即农历新年，是全球华人最重要的传统佳节之一，从农历正月初一（2019年2月5日）开始至元宵，全长达15天。期间，家人团聚，共度新春。在外拼搏游荡的游子亦会回家过年，与家人聚集一堂，享天伦乐。然而Lyann，一部贺岁影片中的主角，就没那么幸运了。“心”由国家石油公司(Petronas)带来的短片 讲述一位单身的职业女性，Lyann与母亲准备过年的温馨小故事。这部影片至今已打动百万人的内心.

The Greatest Blessings are seen with The Heart! Chinese New Year is one of the most important celebrations for the Chinese communities worldwide. Also known as the Lunar New Year which lasts for 15 days from the first day of the lunar calendar (5th February 2019), it’s the time for families to get together to ring in the changes. While most will go through great lengths to be home with their loved ones, Lyann, a protagonist from PETRONAS’ short film was unfortunate as she could not be with hers.

影片中，Lyann本已答应与母亲一同准备迎接过年；却在除夕夜前夕接到公司的通知，说明她新年间须出差到外国工作。事业心甚重的Lyann在没办法之下，选择留下母亲独自在家过年。

Lyann完成手头上的工作后，便致电给远在家乡的母亲。试了几次，母亲的电话却一直处于未开机的状态，无法接通。此时，Lyann已惊慌失措，心很不安定。待电话终于接通后，满怀内疚的Lyann一听到母亲的声音，便崩溃了。这段情节成功引起观众的共鸣，打动他们的内心深处.

此影片以创意温馨的方式带出了国民对家庭和谐，爱与关怀的重视，获得观众的证明评论。就像史蒂芬·理查兹·柯维说过，“人们往往把时间花在紧急的事件，而不是重要的事件上”。

 民众即日起可通过国油公司的官方脸书及YouTube频道观看此4分钟的新春短片。60秒的电视广告版本也会从1月26日起播放至2月19日.


“Heart” is a short film advertisement by PETRONAS, which has touched the hearts of a million viewers. It tells the story of Lyann, an unmarried, career-driven woman who lives with her beloved mother, a single parent. The Mandarin advertisement shows the close bond between the mother and daughter, as they prepare for the upcoming Chinese New Year.

As Lyann’s mother started to prepare for Chinese New Year, she gifted a smock dress for her daughter with the words “I Love Ma” on it. Lyann, touched by the gesture, surprised her mother with a smartphone in return. Though Lyann deeply loves her mother and wishes to be there for her at times of need, she is unfortunately ‘married’ to her extremely demanding job.

On the day that Lyann had completed her tasks and was about to get started on helping her mother with Chinese New Year preparations as promised, work demanded that she travel overseas the next day, leaving the older woman behind.

Things took a turn for the worst when Lyann was unable to reach her mother after several tries, sending her into a frenzied state of panic, worry and guilt for being abroad on Chinese New Year eve. The turn of events tugged at viewers’ heartstrings as they watched Lyann’s tears for her mother.

The advertisement’s production values and creativity received wide praise by viewers as the theme of family, unity and love resonated with Malaysians. Like Stephen R. Covey quoted, “Most of us spend too much time on what is urgent and not enough time on what is important”.


The four-minute film can be viewed on PETRONAS’ official Facebook page and YouTube channel, while the 60-second TV commercial version will be aired from 26th January until 19th February.
