What does a bowl of jajang noodles mean? If you put it on different occasions, in addition to being a food to satisfy your hunger, it may also represent a noun "hope".

If one day all the modern lifestyles leave you, will you regret that you missed the hand-rolled noodles made by your mother when you were a child, or that you didn't ask your colleagues to hand you the bowl of fried sauce when you were working overtime? As for the instant noodles, a bowl of fried noodles needs flour, eggs, fried sauce, peas, shrimps, everything you need. Under the modern lifestyle, maybe just a bowl of instant noodles can bring you all. If you are in a state of nothing, you can only do it yourself and re-interpret the history of human farming evolution before you can get a bowl of hot and fragrant fried noodles. The purpose of all this may only come from one original intention, That is the regret of not eating fried noodles before dying. In this extremely disappointing situation, this bowl of jajang noodles represents "hope", which is an extreme experience for the lowest diet in life, or it can be sublimated, it is a bland experience under the condition of extreme material scarcity The simplest pursuit of love and beauty in life is almost extravagant.

All of the above comes from a Korean movie called "Kim's Crusoe", and this plot is just one of the sub-key main lines.

An elderly white-collar young man who was heavily in debt and was hit by a marriage change failed to commit suicide by jumping into a river. When he woke up, he found that he had been taken to an isolated island in the center of the river. The isolated island was surrounded by noisy cities. The only thing that could be called a connection with the outside world was An unclimbable bridge pile on the viaduct above the island, this man could not ask for help or death, so he gradually got used to the Robinson-like life, reclaiming wasteland, farming, fishing and hunting birds. The "HELP" written on the beach was changed to "HELLO".

From the day shortly after he arrived on the island, in a towering building in the distance, he was noticed by a pair of eyes behind a camera. Those eyes belonged to a standard house girl. Three meals, exercise and ventilation were all under her control. Completed in the field, the only direct communication with the outside world is through the Internet. An accident three years ago injured half of her face, so she found a new self on the Internet, and she can have new shoes at any time. She can have new clothes, and even the face that troubles her can be changed to whatever she likes at any time. Until she sees the man on the island, several labels pop up in her mind, aliens, weirdos, She didn't like cleanliness, so she began to point the camera that she used to photograph the moon every day at him on the island, and finally, on a certain night a few days later, she mustered up the courage, packed her bags, put on her helmet, and followed the arranged shortcuts. , walked to the bridge, and threw a drift bottle on the island with a piece of paper inside, "HELLO".

If we can overlook the city of Beijing in mid-air, we can definitely see such a scene: in each building, otakus and otakus build forts or live in isolated islands, arrogant in their hearts, but from every connection The virtual self is published on the Internet to the outside world, expressing true or false emotions. He and she may also have a camera behind the curtain, eager to see her and him who fell in love at first sight, and also want to have a pastoral garden of their own dreams. It's just that the opening of this fortress and the lonely island is only a flash in the pan, and then they miss her and him in the vast crowd. From this point of view, it is not as good as the ending of this movie called "Kim's Crusoe", because they are still together in the end. At that moment, there was a long-lost emotion in my heart.
