How did I let Assistant Cauchy lose so badly? We all know that teaching assistant Cauchy is very stingy, so he does not play poker with logic or mathematics, but with psychology. Our brains are so reluctant to lose what we deem valuable that we give up all rational thinking and make bad decisions, so he plays not to win, but to not lose.

In the original, Astrid's storyline is almost as heavy as Nick/Rachel's storyline. Astrid is a fashion icon, with its own design brand, and grew up in an old money family. In order to take care of my husband's self-esteem in the IT industry (...), I have to hide expensive jewelry and never disclose the property in my name, in exchange for my husband cheating. In the movie, Astrid decided to leave her husband aggressively and said, "I won't apologize for not feeling like a man. My family's money has never been the problem between us. Your cowardice is the problem." Turn gracefully. Her husband asked, where are you going to move?

"I have 14 apartment buildings, and you can go to any one," she said. "You can go to see your child at his convenience, not yours.

--It's not my fault that things got this way

--You're right, I shouldn't hide things from you, hide my shoes, hide my jewelry, refuse a lot of work, do charity, just worry that you don't think you are worthy of me. But let me make it clear that the problem of our marriage is not the fault of my family having money, but because you are a coward and you gave up on us, but I already understand very well that it is not me that makes you feel like a man I cannot create for you what you do not have.

The mahjong table set up by Rachel - what a wonderful metaphor, there are no adults at the mahjong table, everyone enjoys equal luck, and fights with wisdom and courage. The family affairs of the Chinese are still negotiated, contested and reconciled in the Chinese way. This should be the whole film, and it is rare that only emphasizes Asian, not the part of Rich.

--My mother taught me that Mahjong will teach me important life skills, strategies, negotiation, cooperation

--My mother taught me too

--I know you told Nick about my mom, but you didn't like me since I came here, why?

--There is a Hokkien proverb, Jiaojiren means our own kind people, obviously you are not our own people

--Because I'm not rich enough? Because I didn't go to boarding school in the UK? Or am I not born into a rich family?

--You said foreigners, Americans. All Americans only care if they are happy

--You don't want Nick to be happy?

--that's illusory stuff, we know how to build things that last. We understand how to build things that last. Something you know nothing about it.

--You don't konw me

--I know you're nou what Nick needs.

--Your son proposed to me yesterday Well, he proposed me yesterday. He said he would leave home and you forever. He said he'd walk away from his family and from you for good. Don't worry, I've rejected him

--Only a fool folds a winning hand.

--there is no winning. You made sure of that. Because if Nick chooses me, he will leave you and your family; if he chooses his family, he will probably hate you for the rest of his life.

--So you helped him choose?

--I didn't leave because I was afraid, or because I didn't feel qualified, but because maybe this was the first time in my life that I knew my heart. I really love Nick, I don't want him to lose his mother again, I just want you to know that one day, when he marries another lucky girl you think is qualified, you will watch the short-lived flowers while you are with your Grandchildren play, that's because I'm letting go now, a poor girl raised by a single mother, a trivial immigrant from the lower classes.

--(Girlfriend) You didn't get anything, you didn't get people, you didn't get money, but I admire you, you preserved your dignity.

    The name is not well translated, it should be called "The Asians of the Extraordinary Tyrant" ____________________________ I suddenly understand why I don't like this movie. This movie is like China Town in a big American city. It is neither China nor the United States, but the homeland in the memory of overseas Chinese and the imagination of the homeland. This kind of imagination always stays in the era when they or their parents came overseas, it may be the Qing Dynasty, it may be the Republic of China, or it may be earlier.

    When I watched the preview, I felt that it was not the Singapore version of Meteor Garden. Go to the cinema and see, hey, it's really Singapore Meteor Garden. So you say that you have to speak British accents, and then dislike ABC? Avoid the most important ones. Chinese immigrants, Asian women, and Singaporeans have not touched any of the three groups. The investment of 30 million yuan tells a story of brain damage. Brother, can the international metropolis that we promised have some patterns?
