1. Prison
From one place to another, Puyi is just going to a deeper prison. The moment when the poor man was kicked out of the palace was more nervous than frightened, and perhaps a little joyous: a man who had never been free was forced to be free. However, Puyi, who regained his freedom, lost the innocent love that he used to travel across the ocean. Greed eventually makes people lose their principles, disagree with each other, and step into a self-created prison. Puyi of New China eventually became a gardener. Like everyone else, he bought Chinese cabbage on the corner of the street. He rode a bicycle and waited for the traffic lights at the intersection. He also needed to buy tickets to visit the Forbidden City. Without the emperor's dream, he gained true freedom. As the fight club said: It's only after you've lost everything that you're free to do anything.
2. Reincarnation
Puyi 's look at the photo of Taizu is meaningful. This film can not help but remind people of Hegel's words: China has no history, only reincarnation. Even if the dynasty changes, "people do not change" (Pu Yi said). Look at the tens of millions of Internet mobs, who are raving about Guo Meimei from the Ministry of Railways, and rumors are flying all over the sky.
3. Property The Longdao, which
was originally for Fu Yi to walk alone, and the throne that belonged to him will not be able to walk or sit even if he buys a ticket in the future. In this respect, young Fu Yi was no different from the son of a gardener in the Forbidden City of New China. What one owns is just a temporary gift from others and luck, and maybe one day someone takes it back or loses it. The same is true of human life, which, like real estate, only has the right to use it for decades. One day what should be repaid, what should be given.
4. Everyone is Puyi
Each of us is given an identity from birth: race, gender, appearance, family, etc. Although not everyone is given as much as Puyi, most of the fortunes are not ours to choose. Know yourself and live well. Less is more, more is confused. Contentment leads to happiness. In the face of difficulties, you can't expect someone to save you. Let yourself be strong, is the greatest luck.
