Before reading Orwell's works, I heard a saying, "One more person who reads Orwell will have one more Freedom Guarantee". When I hear this person's name sparsely, most of the time he is called an anti-X fighter , a mocker of XXism. A careful review of his life revealed that he was not only a fan of CP, but also a true socialist. He spent his whole life trying to clear the cancer that was parasitic on the social system. It's just that his two works, "Animal Farm" and "1984", describe the scene that happened to be confirmed in the former Soviet Union, which has become so ironic that it is almost impossible for a movie based on his work to be in a XXist country. show. There are two movies based on the book "Animal Farm", one is an animated version shot in 1954, the picture is quite beautiful, the lines are also quite good, more faithful to the original, but the result is a step further, the Aowei Er Liubai's open suspense has become the dead end of the cycle of rebellion; one is a physical animal version shot in 1999. This version is quite different from the original, the picture quality is rough, and the lines also deviate from the core spirit of the original. The ending It even allowed humans to restore Animal Farm. Orwell has a genius foresight in politics. His political fables from half a century ago can be placed in any country and any type of government today, and a general prototype can be found. As far away as the Three Kingdoms, when Zhuge Liang first saw the Lord of the Ming Dynasty, he said that the general trend of the world, long-term unity must be divided, long-term separation must be united, and the law of change in the external relationship of society, but unfortunately he did not point out the law of internal change of society, so in China, the feudal monarchy continued. For thousands of years, it was not abolished until the Republic of China. In the West, there are quite a few theorists who have tried to specify the laws of internal changes in society and match them with appropriate political systems. The famous ones include the monarchy, the communist manifesto, etc. Unfortunately, the origins of these theories are mostly utopian, and It has not been successfully verified on a small scale, and then promoted on a large scale, so after it spread, it poisoned half of the world. Even a small economic policy still needs to establish a special zone first, explore it, test it, and then summarize the successful experience before it can be replicated and promoted on a large scale. The country's political system, which has a wide range of influence, is used directly. It is this kind of sloppiness that led to the collapse of the former Soviet Union decades later. Back to "Animal Farm", the manor is small, but like a sparrow, it has all the internal organs. The owner of the estate, Mr. Jones, is smoky and careless, and the animals dry out more and eat less. The resentment and grievances hidden in the hearts of animals are like sulphur amine powder that permeates the air, and it will burst apart with just one match. Whenever there is going to be a social movement, there must be a trend of thought, and the role of ideological mentors in this regard is irreplaceable in the brewing stage of the revolution. As the most intelligent animal, the old pig called the old major appeared at the right time. Before the rise of Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, he used the fish maw to collect the book "Da Chuxing, King Chen Sheng", and Zhang Jiao's Yellow Turban Army also used the image of a celestial master to shout "The sky is dead, the yellow sky should stand, the age is in Jiazi, the world is prosperous". The slogan, even the Jintian Uprising Hong Xiuquan had to use the name of Brother Tian. The old major is not inferior to his Chinese counterparts in this regard. In his dream, he composed the song of the beast of England, predicting that cruel human beings will perish. After stating the reality of animal suffering, he analyzes the root cause in depth, and then calls for Everyone resisted together. Most importantly, he also drew a blueprint for the future. All animals are free and equal. For this reason, he also listed the seven commandments of animals. With ideas, doctrines, plans, and programs, great things will be accomplished, but unfortunately the old major died. After his death, his dreams, his thoughts, and his program have become the legacy of living animals, and they will be fulfilled for the sake of the hero Nate Nair. The seven commandments of the old major became the guiding light, and his two good students, Snowball and Napoleon, carried his banner high and successfully led the revolution. Snowball is an idealist. During the revolution, he took the lead and charged into battle. When building a society, he worked hard and worked hard. It is a pity that he is not a politician, he is just a practical idealist, which is doomed to the same tragic fate as Trotsky. Napoleon was a pragmatist. He shouted slogans when he charged. After victory, he picked fruit. When Snowball started to manage the manor and plan for the future, he raised nine puppies, and pulled a group of henchmen, and cultivated his own armed forces. Troops and propaganda machines. In his prison memoir "Mein Kampf", the party leader listed propaganda as the first element of success, which is indeed very discerning. The Sounder established Napoleon's leadership and established Napoleon's absolute authority through black-and-white propaganda. In the God-building movement, the irreplaceable role of the propaganda front can never be achieved by the force of the Nine Dogs. When the nine puppies reach adulthood, that's when Snowball steps down. After Snowball was exiled, his whereabouts are unknown. In the movie, the crow witnesses it being torn to shreds by a dog, but in the novel, there is no account of its ending. But dead or alive, Napoleon has his own unique use for it, it must be alive in propaganda, and it is a traitor who colluded with the restoration of the original manor Jones. The best way to achieve internal unity is to have a traitor combined with the coveted threat of external forces. The easiest way to establish a totalitarian dictatorship is to eliminate the false traitors within. The most effective way to establish personal authority is to guide public opinion to remain the only voice. Therefore, there are Jones and Snowball outside who are in trouble and may be restored at any time, and there are disobedient pigs and goats inside who are Snowball's internal and external traitors, plus the sounder always explains to everyone the great glory and correctness of every action of Napoleon, and the sheep When there are doubts from the masses, they always pollute the public opinion with "four legs are good and two legs are bad" to offset the different voices. There is nothing new under the sun, history repeats itself forever, moving slowly along the track set by Napoleon. The original promise of building windmills was to generate electricity, give everyone a better life, provide lighting, heat and hot water, and work three days a week, but it turned out to be a twelve-hour work seven days a week, ten days a week, due to the slogan of contributing to the construction of xxivism. In the process of building windmills, Napoleon gradually established a new social order. Management once and for all means that the managed is exhausted in order to make a living, and there is no time to think and oppose. The seven commandments written by Snowball on the barn wall are constantly being rewritten. After each commandment was broken by Napoleon, Squealer ran to the barn with paint in the middle of the night and added a modifier to the original text of the Seven Commandments. Napoleon loves to drink whiskey, and the admonition "no animals shall drink alcohol" was added with "do not drink excessively", and he slept on the bed, and "no animals shall sleep on the bed" was added with "no bed covered" The quilt", when it executed the disobedient animals, "all animals shall not harm other animals" was added with the sentence "except for proper reasons", when it finally walked with its legs upright, it simply removed the first six, and the remaining The last clause of the second half of the sentence was added below: "All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal". At the banquet where Napoleon and humans colluded to suppress animal rebellions, other enslaved animals looked at the faces of pigs and people, and were in a trance for a while, unable to distinguish which was pig and which was human. In fact, the rule of the supreme leader Napoleon was not achieved overnight, it has also been challenged several times. As it debates Snowball, whose accomplice murders Snowball, no animal stands up. When it was about to trade the hen's eggs for wine from the neighboring estate trade, the hen's resistance was bloodily suppressed, and no animal came forward. When it rewrote the barn manifesto every time it violated the program, Benjamin, the only literate, was indifferent and said that the world is like this. When it executed the disobedient chickens, ducks and sheep with the crime of treason, no one dared to stand up. The most powerful BOXER was intimidated by the majesty of Napocang, and when holding down the dog that bit it, it did not dare to shoot the evil-doer to death. executioner. When it sold the sick BOXER to the slaughterhouse, Benjamin led a group of animals to stop and still accepted the reality. Loyal BOXER, the motto is I have to work harder, Napoleon is always right, his final contribution to Animal Farm is to be pulled into the slaughterhouse and exchanged for whiskey to fill Napoleon's glass. With the passage of time, the animals that participated in the revolution, the short-lived ones have gradually died, and the long-lived ones have almost forgotten that there was a revolution. Even the beast of England taught to them by the old major on his deathbed was banned, because the revolution has already Success, this song is no longer appropriate, the solemn promise 50 years ago should only be fulfilled 50 years ago. As a song to replace the beast of England, now everyone sings every day: Friend of the orphan, source of happiness, God of food Your calm and majestic eyes are like the sun in the sky, Whenever I look up to you! My heart is full of passion, Comrade Napoleon! It was you who gave it... Napoleon's latest decision is that since it has been on an equal footing with human beings, it is no longer appropriate to call the manor ANIMAL FARM, and it has decided to change it to MANOR FARM, exactly the same as before the revolution. Just as in a state to the north, everyone has developed a good habit of singing praises to the young general, and all the animals in the manor have become accustomed to talking in a new way. For example, a hen will say, "Under the leadership of our leader, Comrade Napoleon, I have laid six eggs in five days" or two cows drinking by the pond say, "This water is so sweet, and it is all thanks to Comrade Napoleon. A wise leader" opened the calendar, this year is 9102 AD. And at this time, the same kind of voice was heard one after another in society. It was a group of sheep reciting the famous saying "four legs good, two legs bad". Listening to this voice, I was also a little dazed and couldn't tell which one was a pig. , which is a person.
