Yesterday, I watched all the "Godfather" trilogy together, a story of the rise and fall of a family. Three generations of godfathers, the first two, Vito Corleone and Mike Corleone, all experienced the same ending in my opinion. The third-generation godfather Vincent Corleone, although the film does not go on, I think it will be equally tragic to foresee his ending. The whole family has been talking about love for generations, loving wives and children, brothers and sisters, and everyone in the family. Loving the family is the belief of the Corleone family. Every generation of godfathers will try their best to protect the family. However, the Corleone family started out as a gang, and from the beginning, they did some illegitimate livelihoods-gambling, visiting prostitutes, drug trafficking and so on. This brings about a problem. The entire family must have many opponents and many enemies in the business process. This kind of opponent is not an ordinary business competitor. This kind of opponent is the same ferocious character as the Corleone family - murder and arson, everything comes. With such fierce opponents, the entire family is often in crisis - a crisis in business on the one hand, and a crisis in the personal safety of the family on the other. What I want to talk about here is the crisis of the personal safety of the family, because this crisis touches the belief and bottom line of the Corleone family. However, in order to grow and develop the family business, it is inevitable to encounter such fierce enemies in business operations, and encountering such enemies will definitely put the family in danger. So there is a contradiction in it - the contradiction between developing and protecting family members. If you want to develop a family business, it will inevitably bring danger to the family, and inevitably there will be sacrifices. This can be seen in the first and second generation of godfathers. During the first generation of godfathers, gangs fought. Although it's not the Corleone family who took the initiative to pick things up, but if you don't provoke others, they won't let you go. Vito Corleone was shot five times in the body, but after being rescued, he was fortunately recovered half his life; while Sonny was designed to be killed; during the second generation of godfathers, for the sake of family management, he had a grudge with other forces, his daughter was killed, and he was also killed. Gun wounded. So it can be seen that the contradiction between them seems irreconcilable. I want to protect my family and develop my career. These two, it can be said that you can't have both. Well, I think this actually goes back to the question that is often said. Questions about family and career choices. If you choose a career, then the family will not be able to spend more time taking care of it; if you choose a family, the career may be overwhelmed. Therefore, what the result is, it is in the heart, and it is all in the choice of two words.
