I'm the girl with the hair cut in the movie

It feels subtle when looking at it, as if looking in a mirror for the first time. His own perception of himself fell to the ground from his imagination, and drew a round face in the mirror, ignorant and curious.

Children are the continuation of their parents' lives. It seems only natural that tiger parents and tiger mothers should seize the opportunity to "start over" and plan a perfect life as a matter of course. The father in the movie, even if he won the provincial championship, still gave up his dream of an Olympic champion because of "how to support yourself in wrestling, and this job is very stable and the income is good". I wanted to pass on the mantle through my son, but I didn't expect his wife to give birth to four girls in a row. The father swinging the cradle is very helpless. Of course he loves his daughter very much, but only the son can inherit his dream and become some kind of extension of him: "human nature". Everyone is mortal, limited time binds us from all directions, there is always something to accomplish, isn't it? How else to face death ?

So it is not surprising that because of a fight, the two daughters rekindled the hope of their father. Any skill acquisition requires hard work; if you want to be the best, you have to endure hardships that ordinary people cannot imagine. Like those vexation threads scattered on the floor, the bitten lips, and the thin piece of paper pasted on the forehead: "Eat hardships and hardships, and then you will be the best."

In the movie, Dad's dream is to represent the country in the International Olympic Games, defeat all opponents, and win the gold medal. In real life, what are your parents' dreams? Since childhood, hobbies, arts and sciences, college admissions, choice of jobs after graduation, how many pounds of their eyes have been mixed? "Human nature": Personal freedom in the private realm is inherently chaotic, not to mention that at least eighteen years of children are still mentally ill and lack the ability to independently make rational decisions. So your little boat follows your parents' long boat, slowly sailing on the sea.

But the sea is vast and boundless. As you grow up, you will have your own hobbies and interests, and you will have sunsets and flying fish that you want to see. You always need to be something beyond the continuation of others, don't you? Under the protection of their parents' longships, some people have smooth sailing, many of them are also very happy, and the accumulated skills can kill others in seconds. After Lang Lang became famous, would he completely deny his father's tyrannical training? However, there are also people who want to find their own fun. Naturally, the human will cannot be completely infinite; "Can you fly? Can you resist your physical structure? Can you live forever?" The materialist dialectical concept has been nurtured for decades, and the elders seem to be well-informed. But free will is not a virtual word . For a matter, it is only when you have a clear understanding of the antecedents and possible consequences, and after in-depth thinking, careful judgment and choice, that it conforms to the principle of freedom of basic will. In the movie, the two daughters saw the advantages of wrestling in another life trajectory that their childhood friends cried about—heavy housework, marrying an old man whom they didn’t know at the age of 14, and raising children. At this moment, they have more and more comprehensive information, and it is possible to reflect on trade-offs.

Dad forced his daughters to wrestle, it's a fact, first. After the daughters got more comprehensive information, they chose wrestling, which is also true, in the post. These two facts are not contradictory, but they are a sequence of facts and different aspects. Is there a "male power" conflict? Of course, to impose one's will on others is slavery, and it does not dissolve the nature just because it happens in the private sphere, between parents and children. Is there "free will"? Of course it also appeared. A clear understanding of the pros and cons of all the options available in front of you, and making your own choice after thinking about it is "free will". Isn't that usually the case with everything? Complex and multi-faceted. There are good and bad. Any unilateral inductive judgment and labelling are just simplistic flat thinking. The slogan and label are cool for a while, and the thinking is reduced in dimension for thousands of years.

What makes the movie more delicate is the fact that these two simultaneous events mentioned above, as the plot advances, interact with each other, and develop in opposite directions at the same time. In the past, the "ducai" who slapped others, realized the limitation of his own ability through the eldest daughter's strength beating; Dad shifted from the emphasis on personal skills to the tactics that he accumulated over many years of experience and was better at tactics. The full control to the late part of the auxiliary. The former relationship is rolling, and the latter relationship is assisted. And the little nuli who suffered in the past, through his own final independent confrontation with the opponent, beautifully completed the last link of growing into an independent individual. Growing up in two lines, elders need to learn how to respect their children as adults, and children need to learn how to become independent adults.

The movie is over. In the shady world, the parents who slammed the notes on our foreheads are also getting old. Has their dream come true in us? I hope they can see the best qualities they have ever had in their future generations; and our lives are ultimately up to us!

The sea is vast. May your road be long.
