Being interesting is more important than success

On October 20, 2015,

I didn't plan to watch "The Little Prince" before I actually bought a ticket. I've seen a few text versions before, and I also watched the theatrical version at the school drama festival.
That year, I watched a lot of dramas at the Drama Festival, and I moved to the dormitory. Often when it was full, I had to sit in the back. The drama festival is in the late spring and early summer every year, under the cool wind blowing in the evening, I still feel a little comfortable in my heart.
Before watching the drama version of "The Little Prince," I was in the library, parked in a mighty bicycle line. My roommate came looking for me, and I went out looking for a car, only to find it was missing.
Driven by the drama, I went to Xianghuitang without being affected by the mood. The drama is great! I feel very comfortable after watching it.
The movie "The Little Prince" helped me sort out the plot that I hadn't noticed before. It turned out that the little prince left his planet because he was hurt by the rose, and then met various characters. It was easily understood that this was a fable before, so the plot was ignored.
The addition of a little girl in the movie complements the need for the plot. When the pilot passed away, I thought that the plot seemed to be coming to an end, but I didn't expect the most exciting part to appear.
The flight part was great. Such an interesting world hides in the back garden. Under the influence of the little prince, the pilot practiced the principle of being an interesting person all his life, but when he grew up, the little prince forgot that he used to be the little prince, and became the most ordinary person who worked hard for a job. people.
Is this a portrait of the little girl's future?
Everything for her is planned, the admission interview, every moment of the day, the future birthday present, her mother has planned it for her, and the purpose is to become a successful person in the future.
People on the planet the plane flies to are afraid of children, work hard, have no color, and don't know what happiness is. The little prince loses his memory, considers himself the humblest of people, and fears not getting a job cleaning buildings.
The little prince finally found his true colors. The little girl's mother also tacitly agreed that she could be an interesting person rather than end up being a successful person. After all, fun is what everyone likes.
