"Elephant Sitting on the Floor": Why are people in this country so evil?
Every time I choose to watch it for four hours from the beginning when the night is quiet and I start to think about it
Although later I also skip to the part that I didn't read every time and then finish it (lying
I finally finished watching "The Elephant Sitting on the Floor" today. I was initially attracted by the fan album and the trailer.
It's a pity that I didn't have the chance to watch this nearly four-hour movie attentively in the cinema.
Dull but unrealistic lines of everyday characters, but harmonious in the movie, like what everyone wants to say when they are tired of the world
The urban legend of the sitting elephant finally became the only sustenance for life to escape
From the first day of 2019, before I started reading the original book, I listened to the elephant described in the trailer, and the idea of escaping from life was very strong.
.
A passage from Lao Jin at the end of the movie describes the escape very aptly:
"You can go anywhere, and when you get there, it doesn't make any difference."
"You stand here, you think that there is definitely better than this, but you can't go, you can solve the problem here if you don't go."
It's the same wherever you go. It's hard and sad, but every time you replay these two sentences, it's like fighting chickens. In the end, you still have to live your life well.

Huang Ling's mother speaks very hard and straight like what my mother would say sometimes
When I was young, I felt the same as Huang Ling, how could she describe herself so uncomfortable
Growing up knowing she's just re-stating the facts to tell you the worst (I'm not going to say what her mom said that resonated with me too blatantly)
.
There are also two similar words that Yu Cheng, the dean of education, said.
"Why are people in this country so evil, they are so evil at such a young age! When you walk on the street, someone always jumps out and wants to kill you!"
I agree very much, especially when you encounter a strange thing these days, you are always looking for something else, other boring people and things will come to you when your days are quiet.
Yu Cheng: "My life is a pile of rubbish, which piles up in front of me every day. Once I clear a piece, a new pile comes."
Much like the previous sentence, everyone is like this, you clear a piece and you have something new to worry about
.
A world-weary movie can get a little redemption every time you watch it when you’re most world-weary. I don’t know much about movies, and I don’t know how to discuss ideas, let alone the methods used by the director or the exploration of the core ideas.
Its charm lies in the film's roar of life depicting ideas we don't know how to express
.
Every loudly abusive "fuck him" is a kind of emotional vent. Watching the movie, the four people are in a mess in one day. It's just like a normal day. Suddenly a bunch of shit comes to your door. Your life is stuck in what you think worst moment
.
Even if you know that you should look at life in the big picture and that everything should be seen in the long-term, the most uncomfortable emotion in the moment will make you unprepared.
.
Finally, after watching this movie, the answer I was looking for was released.
You can retract the warm quilt
After dawn, I have to drive back to my home in the middle

When I was carrying some old articles, I found that the feeling I wrote last April was Hu Bo's "Elephant Sitting on the Floor".
Now look at it again, the world has not changed (directly use the lines of the murder of the youth in Guling Street 😂)
How should I put it, there is a line in the movie that I want to ask: "Why are people in this country so evil, they are so evil at such a young age, when you walk on the street, someone always jumps out and wants to kill you!"
Yes, when I watched that movie at the time, it was because of my emotionally dragged grades and emotional revenge from my ex.
And after a year, I still suffer revenge from the same ex today, but this time it completely echoes the way of revenge in the movie. It was slandered by spreading rumors and serious injuries.
Some people who value me worriedly came to me to verify whether those rumors were true or not, and whether I now resort to the law is another matter.
The important things, the sheer evil, seem to have been hearing about both of my exes lately.
That kind of reckless remarks, one responsible for spreading rumors, one for believing the rumors and getting into trouble, this makes me feel disconnected, and those two people who are not even related, sometimes even make me reflect on how abominable I am to be cheated on again. A selfish, vicious man who doesn't respect women when they move and doesn't even throw away the trash is described as so abhorrent? How can I offend a son of a high-ranking official who has been out of the society for many years and who knows the book and Dali, after hearing the rumor, he is said to describe me as being so obscene by nature?
I'm sorry, this sentence is too extreme, I can't say that I'm not completely right in my relationship, but at least I'm not unfaithful to my relationship, and I've arranged all the daily affairs and every holiday celebration with all my heart.
Even though I am a tough-tempered person who prefers tit-for-tat, but this time about the rumors, I almost completely left out the move, stayed in my hometown for more than two months, and didn't tell my social circle. No one has poured dirty water, and has not come out to play the victim.
The process of being disinformation this time involved some adults in their late 30s participating in spreading these unverified rumors.
As a party, there is no need to continue to pay attention to it after being angry. Of course, you can also prepare for the corresponding legal measures in advance to prevent the next rumor.
I also don't understand that nowadays the mainstream is to kill by word of mouth, and just the private consumption of others like some humble college students and some "tasteful" members of society can produce so much evil.
Like my work? Don't forget to support and clap, let me know that you are with me on the road of creation. Keep this enthusiasm together!
