When people treat their careers, they can be summed up in three realms.

The first is to see it as a job for a living, they don't love their jobs, in fact most of them hate their jobs, the reason why they continue is purely to support their family, or to make more money to enrich themselves and their families' lives and desires for the world, such people are typical of some politicians, school political teachers, and social workers at the bottom.

The second is to regard it as a platform for self-realization. They generally love their careers very much. They have higher spiritual pursuits. They do not work to make money. They are more to realize their life value and gain social recognition. He is famous for his youth. Such people are typical of outstanding entrepreneurs and politicians.

The third is to regard it as a confession of life. They may be rich in material things or have nothing. What they do is neither for the sake of their life nor for the sake of their own name. They ignore the things outside themselves and follow their inner voice without turning back. People are typical of some artists, scientists who pursue truth, and thinkers.

Liu Xiaochun is a violinist with the third realm. Maybe there will be some changes when he grows up, but the Liu Xiaochun we see in the film completely ignores the purpose and hard work of his father and himself, and resolutely sells his most precious violin - it was left to him by his mother The only thing left is to buy a piece of clothes for the woman he loves to comfort her heart hurt by being abandoned, completely ignoring the importance of that international competition, and resolutely rushing back to the train station to find his father, what is true? Temperament also. Liu Xiaochun is a child who doesn't like to talk or can't talk, but he has a rich heart. He loves music, and he can only express his inner voice through music. He poured his thoughts on his mother into the sound of the piano. He gave up the competition and ran to the train station. He could only express his love and gratitude to his father by playing a piece of music. A rich heart, dull words, and pure heart have created Liu Xiaochun's love for music, far beyond the pursuit of fame and fortune. Music is the most important link between him and the world.

A pure heart is oneself unarmed and unreservedly loving this seemingly bright world full of traps and ugliness. That's what Liu Xiaochun did, that's why he didn't hesitate to sell the only violin that his mother left to him, so he seemed so incompetent and useless in front of Lin Yu's scheming, until he finally gave up the right to compete. At the end of the film, the camera is constantly switched, one side is the magnificent performance hall, the other side is the train station waiting room with noisy voices, the other side is working hard for fame and fortune nervously and proudly, and the other side is tearfully pouring out for family affection, Two violinists, each pursuing their own life with the sound of the piano.

On the one hand, it achieves the success of art, and on the other hand, it achieves the realm of art.

Success will make Lin Yuzhi complacent, and it will also make her famous. The public without discernment can only go along with the external reputation. As Professor Yu reprimanded his students, "they applaud not because of your sound, but because of your reputation." However, only The lofty realm has such an appeal, allowing a down and decadent artist to re-clean up his image, allowing an unemployed junior to regain his pure self, and allowing a picky and arrogant professor to love him like a father. For ourselves, we need success, which is the only way for us to gain a rich life and a good reputation behind us, but for society, this society needs to forget the self and love the realm more.

It's just that the film deliberately shows us the comparison between Teacher Jiang and Professor Yu, Liu Xiaochun and Lin Yu. Is it telling us that in many cases, the success of art and the realm of art cannot always be combined for whom? Get both? In the future, Liu Xiaochun will become famous because he surpasses the artistic realm of ordinary people, or will he be buried forever because he does not understand the scheming. I.
