In fact, after "Search" was screened, film critics and media people all focused on the current public opinion environment, online violence and other hot topics.
Of course, there are also some people who focus on the cliche of "give up your seat but not give up your seat".
Zhou Qingquan originally wrote an article about the media's abuse of public resources and general infringement of privacy rights.
But after writing it, he felt that such comments were too stereotyped. Yes, the themes of this movie are indeed these, but are they just these?
If so, why are there so many different characters?
And each one has a lot of roles.
Therefore, Zhou Qingquan soon wrote another article.
This time, he placed the theme on "Pride and Prejudice".
"I watched the movie and read a lot of reviews. As we all know, because of the anti-cyber violence charity fund and related lawsuits, everyone is focusing on this. Lao Zhou originally wrote an article, but after watching it, I felt
, not so satisfied.
In fact, looking at the entire movie, it can be said that the occurrence and process of the incident are full of all kinds of pride and prejudice.
Let’s take a look at the origin of the matter. First, let’s look at why a trainee reporter like Yang Jiaqi took such a video in the first place?
Is it just because this is a seat-giving incident?
Lao Zhou doesn’t think so, at least not entirely!
Because in itself, we cannot deny that we ourselves, including Lao Zhou, also have pride and prejudice.
Suppose we were on the bus at that time, I believe that the first thing we would focus on is that person who is well-dressed, beautiful and even incompatible with the people on the bus - Ye Lanqiu!
Because everyone has a love for beauty.
But similarly, when Yang Jiaqi filmed that scene, perhaps there was indeed a question of whether to give up her seat or not, but more importantly it was because that person was Ye Lanqiu.
What if that person was someone else, an ordinary person? Would she still take the photo?
We don't know, but at least that must be a factor that has a big influence.
Closer to home, the whole thing is actually not complicated. A fair and beautiful woman became the sunglasses girl just because she refused to give up her seat on the bus. A series of dramatic conflicts, even the junior high school teacher came out to be ashamed of her, until the final abrupt end, the curtain call.
And after that?"
Although the film gave those people "punishment", it may make people feel angry but at the same time it is also satisfying.
But we can't help but wonder here, why does such a thing happen?
What exactly caused it?
I remember a friend once said something to the effect that he admired those beautiful people who crowded on the bus every day, because they could have used the talents given by God to take shortcuts. But they didn't.
They love life, live seriously, be down-to-earth, and follow their own path.
I used to think his words were pretentious and stingy, but now that I think about it, I understand.
Originally, she could have taken another path, a shortcut.
In fact, this sentence is a kind of prejudice, a taken-for-granted cognition, and a very helpless cognition!
It’s just...the pride and prejudice in everyone’s heart. Has anyone really listened to her cry, her pain, her loneliness, her struggle, and her despair? The world is very big and long. Everyone is in a hurry, who really cares?
As the audience, we stand from God's perspective, so we know that she is terminally ill, so we naturally feel that her behavior is understandable.
But let me ask, what if we don’t know?
Will we be like those Internet mobs in the movies who are coerced by one-sided information?
Everyone feels that they are standing on the moral high ground, but are people who do such things moral themselves?
I like what Shen Liushu said. It was just an incident of giving up a seat. As for it evolving to such a situation, it is making a fuss out of a molehill!
Yes, it was just a small thing at first, but why did it turn into that in the end?
Chen Ruoxi said that the news about her had just been reported and netizens were very involved. How could they immediately provide a platform for her to apologize? Netizens would not agree to it.
Therefore, it is actually not difficult to imagine why Chen Ruoxi lost her boyfriend. She obviously made sandwiches for her boyfriend day after day. She would say that she loves her boyfriend because he is a good person. She would treat her boyfriend to dinner and watch movies with him. , she will find a way to buy a house and make a down payment to prevent her cousin from living on the street. She will arrange everything well.
Putting aside work, it seems that she has definitely accomplished everything a woman can do in life, right?
But she forgot that feelings are not just about giving, giving, and giving again. What does Yang Shoucheng really need? Yang Shoucheng is not indispensable to her. He can be lost. She can live a good life without him. And for Yang Shoucheng, she can be lost. Ye Lanqiu and Yang Shoucheng are like the last straw in life, so precious and unique.
She will also hype up this news point because of pride and prejudice, or her profession as a reporter, and push the entire incident to a climax.
But she forgot that many things have causes and consequences, and many things are not inexplicable. Every choice made by everyone has its own reason. Why not broadcast the recording of Ye Lanqiu's apology? Don't you want to listen to that recording? The inner prejudice makes everyone go further and further until they are tricked, lose their job, lose their lover, and may even end up in jail.
Chen Liushu is undoubtedly a very charming character in the entire film. He is mature, elegant, and wise, and has all the characteristics and advantages of a successful person.
But why did Shen Liushu lose his wife? Why was such a successful and charming man eventually abandoned by his wife?
Because he is so arrogant, will he say that people like me need to steal? He will calculate everything, everything is for success, but what is success for?
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Is success just for the sake of being envied? Like a business veteran with his wife, he will stop all credit cards because of her jealous and irrational behavior, even if it is just to explain For a moment, he would dislike her for not placing her shoes neatly and say something about her. He would forget the porridge that nourishes the stomach. Many things are not calculated with money. Arrogant people will eventually be arrogantly retaliated.
For a wife like Mo Xiaoyu, if she is not jealous, it means that she doesn't care about her husband at all. She just does her own thing. Isn't indifference more terrifying than a mistress? She did what she thought a wife should do. Maybe she shouldn't have made that call. , but if my husband gives me a sense of security, even an explanation, it may be completely different.
She would invite Chen Ruoxi to dinner, talk softly, and talk about what was in her heart. She would put the shoes away when she went out because Shen Liushu said that the shoes were not neatly placed, even though she felt that a little more chaos would make her home. She has been enduring the atmosphere. She has made it clear how many times she will stir the eggs for this family. She loves life so much, but she has been working hard to endure it.
Shen Liushu could give her everything financially, but ironically, he could not give her a real "life"!
I saw someone on the Internet saying that Mo Xiaoyu is very worldly, and even sometimes gives people a very immature feeling, but she is a woman, she will store expensive jewelry in a private bank, although in the end she will throw away those things that are not beautiful. Memories remain. A pink heart. I’m sorry, but my husband doesn’t even give me a minimum of time.
In the relationship between a man and a woman, whoever speaks softly first is the one who cares more. But everyone has a limit. Maybe after it is exceeded, it will be irreversible. When the drama and scheming reaches the family, everything is meaningless. At that time, playing When he was playing the piano, he would be very nice to her, but after the accumulation of arrogance over time, everything was left with holes.
Many people say that a man like Yang Shoucheng seems to have no advantages other than being handsome.
Many people even think that if Ye Lanqiu had not been terminally ill and had not encountered such a situation, how could he have fallen in love with such a man?
But this is also a kind of prejudice.
Personally, I admire him very much because he has many qualities. We have seen his cowardice, his struggle, his entanglement, his temptation, his pity, his honesty, and his hard work.
He will insist on telling the truth and cause the wedding to overturn. He will insist on holding up a sign because his girlfriend said she must get her cell phone back. He will accompany her because he is afraid that a woman who is misunderstood as a mistress will commit suicide. He would attack a woman for the sake of money, because he wants to wake up that confused person and want her to live a good life.
Ye Lanqiu, after watching this movie, it's hard not to fall in love with this character, because the director is so partial to her, and she is such a melancholy, strong and beautiful person.
The one who got the report didn't believe it, but it was just a routine physical examination; knowing that he was terminally ill, he cried and told his boss that he wanted to save someone, even though he was saving himself; when he checked out of the house, he said he didn't want anything, and cried until he knelt down.
on the ground; smoking cigarettes and watching all kinds of abuse on the Internet; going to hire a babysitter and being watched by all kinds of people, and running away in embarrassment; people who bite and hit themselves say that they want to hurt you and let you know that it is wrong; I want to see
At sunrise, I thought about living every minute, every second, every day... everything came to an abrupt end.
The director was really biased. He made her look so beautiful, so good, so desperate, so gorgeous, so passionate. He chose the most decisive way to end his life.
A three-year relationship or a seven-day love, which one is more precious and which one is more correct? Many things in this world are unclear and unreasonable. When that person appears, whether it is a day or a lifetime, it will be
It’s just the word that feels right!
Many people felt that the script was not that good, as if it was deliberately creating disputes. For example, Ye Lanqiu, many people asked, why didn't she tell others about her illness?
As long as you say it, it seems that you can clear away the haze. However, people who ask this question feel that it is unreasonable, but it is also a kind of prejudice in itself.
Suffering from a terminal illness, this is the most desperate thing for Ye Lanqiu. Compared with being bullied on the Internet and being reviled by people she doesn't know, announcing that she is terminally ill and being sympathized by people she doesn't know may be more suitable for her.
Even more cruel!
Because she is proud. When her life is about to face misfortune, when she reaches despair, what she wants to keep is her dignity. She cannot see it or touch it, but it is easy for people to understand.
Ye Lanqiu is really beautiful in the film. This kind of beauty comes from the inside out and cannot be erased by time. I think that even if she gets old one day, she will maintain her elegance.
The most beautiful moment for a woman is when she still maintains her self-esteem in times of despair.
The most beautiful part of the film is when Ye Lanqiu decided to commit suicide. Because she was given too many setbacks in the early stage, but the final death did not come from the pressure caused by these setbacks. It was just that she chose to face death directly.
Rather than waiting in confusion. This is her way of maintaining her self-esteem. She did not give up her self-esteem in the face of setbacks. This kind of persistence is beautiful.
Although this kind of persistence is deplorable, it is Ye Lanqiu's choice.
Perhaps when she saw what it was like for patients with terminal lymphoma, she had already made her choice.
So, during those seven days, she did what she had wanted to do but had never done before.
So, she took Yang Shoucheng to go racing, bungee jumping, and watch the last sunrise.
Then, her time came.
The most amazing thing the director did is the ending.
Ye Lanqiu did not declare her love to Yang Shoucheng, because it was too luxurious for her and too cruel for Yang Shoucheng.
In the end, she returned the one million to Shen Liushu. She had always been this kind of person. Even until the moment of her death, she was still elegant and calm.
She no longer owes anyone anything, and can leave this world truly gracefully and calmly.
Back to the starting point, Pride and Prejudice, who are you talking about? You or me?
"Our job is to try to record the truth in life, but what is truth?"
This is a classic quote from Chen Ruoxi, the famous character in the movie, and it is also the ultimate truth that everyone in the movie is struggling to pursue. The director did not give an answer. He chose to let each audience member make up their own minds when the last frame of the movie was played.
Everyone saw Ye Lanqiu's behavior of not giving up her seat, but no one knew the secret behind her terminal illness; Chen Ruoxi found photos of her boyfriend cheating on her, but she didn't know the innocence of two lovers; Mo Xiaoyu caught Her husband's affair was going on, but she didn't know that it was just the tenderness between superiors and subordinates; Shen Liushu found out the whereabouts of the secret money that escaped, but he didn't know that this was a desperate journey. When we sat in the dark cinema and watched Looking at the picture of all sentient beings drawn by the director, perhaps I can't help but despise the self-righteous stupidity of the characters in the play.
To put it another way, if: If we didn’t see Ye Lanqiu’s cancer report at the beginning of the film, when she desperately said “I won’t give up my seat” on the bus, would we be like that person on the bus? The conductor, with his hands on his hips, shouted loudly at Ye Lanqiu?
