Living elsewhere, everywhere is the road-"Loving Aspirations"

if you--

My parents are the cultural elites of the Imperial Capital, I am the president of Tencent, and my wife is a sister with milk powder. I am pregnant with a second child. The eldest son Si Suan is about to go to school...

Do you know how--

In spite of the opposition of his family, he ran to settle in the eighth-tier cities in Guizhou;

Give up your communications empire and re-establish a small company and start a business in the wilderness;

Putting aside ideological prejudices, let his son Si Suan marry an African girl who is washing dishes in Shantou;

Regardless of the restraint of public opinion, filed a lawsuit for a notorious wrongdoer;

Ignoring the political environment, I would rather be criticized as "treason" to mix up ethnic issues such as "Dalai" and "maintaining stability";

Exposing the collusion between government and businessmen to buy and sell land illegally;

In spite of life and death, join the army to fight in southern Tibet and Vladivostok;

After retiring, he gave up his military merits and kept his name incognito. In the past few years, he went to Daqing to dig oil and become an iron man...

Do you know how?

If you do this, then I recommend that you go to the Armed Police General Hospital to see if you are sick. It's just that if you run out of property, you may not be cured.

However, there is one person who spent his whole life like this-this is a "crazy" person who doesn't know how to stay.

It can be guessed from its Chinese translation "Zhuang Zhi Qianqiu" that this is a historical drama; from its original English name "Cimarron", it can be guessed that this is a heroic epic belonging to the pioneers of the West.

But what I can’t guess is that the protagonist Yang Xi turned out to be a madman as mentioned above: he is adventurous, he is a gentleman, he is brave; he is knowledgeable, he is courageous, he is knowledgeable; he is not afraid of strong men, he is not. To bully the weak, he does not interfere with others-he is friendly to the little black servants, he draws his sword to help the Jews, and he treats the Indians equally-he is [freedom], he does not know how to stop, ignore the freedom of borders.

Yang Xi is simply a perfect man. In the film, there is often a supporting role to contrast with Yang Xi, so that the audience is more clearly aware of Yang Xi's brilliance:

Yang Xi has a prominent position, but he is not arrogant and domineering. Even if he treats the most lowly status-a black slave who is treated as a monkey by others, Yang Xi will give him the minimum respect. Not only does he do not know how to fist, he even speaks with a gentle tone like a friend. It was Yang Xi's gentleman's attitude that made the black servant follow Yang Xi all the way, and sacrificed to find Xiao Yang Xi. Contrary to Yang Xi's gentleness, it was Mrs. Curiques, who always cherished the honor of "My ancestors signed the Declaration of Independence" for forty years. Her defiant power is at its extreme, she is the old aristocrat who sits and enjoys her achievements and is opposed to the new aristocrats like Yang Xi.

Yang Xi is strong and tough, but not domineering. Even in the barren land of Okla, his great name is known to everyone. Drivers, robbers, gangsters, women...everyone must respect him three points. Yang Xi was fine without causing trouble, but he was not afraid of trouble. When someone shot his hat off to provoke him, he exploded the other party's earrings to return the color. The opposite of Yang Xi's inner strength and outer softness is the gangsters on the street. Not only do they idle and bully the weak, they also form gangs and kill others. In the end, at the preaching scene, Yang Xi not only exposed their crimes, but also resulted in the main culprit.

Yang Xi has a bright future, but he wants to plunge into the unknown wilderness. When "The Voice of China" was in full swing, Wang Feng's sentence "What is your dream" has become a favorite phrase, and we can always hear the players give appropriate answers. However, if Yang Xilai participates in the competition, he is afraid it will be difficult to answer this question-because as long as he is still alive, there will be no day for him to reach the end, no day for stopping-no day for his dream to come true. As the play said, "I have never lived in the same place for more than five years." In contrast, Yang Xi’s wife, Shabra, is also a pioneering person. It was she who came to this barren land with her husband resolutely despite the opposition of the family, but after a period of development, she stopped and stopped. It was her who moved forward. Shabra is a woman with dreams, she is not weak, she is a strong woman. But Yang Xi was already far beyond the limits of'fighting for dreams'. In Yang Xi's life, there are no so-called dreams, only infinite exploration and development. If Yugong's spirit of moving mountains has already shocked us, but we think that after Yugong moved the king's house, he will not move again; and Yang Xi, his pioneering exists with his life and never ends. . If the world and the universe are infinitely close to infinity, then Yang Xi's pioneering spirit is a power that transcends infinity and is more infinite.

The main melody must also tolerate criticism

However, the person who married Yang Xi was bloody mildew.

Of course, there are many flaws in this film today. The characters are too ideal and positive, the main theme is too ostentatious, the performance is exaggerated, the close-up shots often illuminate the beauty of the protagonist, etc., especially the last paragraph "I Dedicated to the Motherland" 'Oil', from some perspectives, simply ruined the entire film. However, it is precisely because of the excellence of "Loving Aspirations" that we can criticize it-why no one criticizes the same period of "Song Girl Red Peony" or something that is problematic and flawed?

Some people simply think that "A Thousand Years of Aspirations" is just an American theme, and the prosperity of Oklamar is like the epitome of America's growth from scratch to prosperity in more than 200 years. In Yang Xi's body, we can see what belongs to the United States.' The pioneer of dreams'. But I also think that it’s not just the United States, not just Americans—it’s because of people like Yang Xi who always live on the road, people who never regard success as a goal, and people who always rush to the barrenness, that human beings are born. Society has the space-time universe, and has the "wisdom" exclusive to human beings like you, me and him. If the drawing board of the Chinese Dream is a wolf totem struggling hard towards the known twenty-four characters, then "Cimarron" is just right for its name, an eagle's eye, an endless search for an unknown wasteland.

    The first Western to win an Oscar for Best Picture. It is not so much the life of the pioneer hero Yancey, but his wife Safra's unwavering waiting. It was an era when the eyes of great adventurers and pioneers were shining, but the glory of the entrepreneurial period will gradually fade away. The ending is sad.

    Yancey is awesome, suddenly stupid
