After watching "The Queen of Out-of-Tune" with worshipping Aunt May, I suddenly feel that hard work is the cousin of modern "success".
In the last century, Florence, who loved opera but was born with a tone of voice, dreamed of becoming a singer. Her family was wealthy, and her husband who loved her meticulously planned a small theater performance for her. The audience invited by her husband didn't know anything about music, and they created the illusion that tickets were tight and the media was highly praised by the outside world. The reason her husband did everything was because Florence was seriously ill, and it was the dream of music that kept her up. Professional vocal training, harsh demands on herself and others, and the acclaim and reputation she has created prepared her to sing in Carnegie Hall. She reserved the venue without her husband's knowledge, and presented tickets to American soldiers as a tribute to the patriotic general. The husband only tried his best to create an atmosphere despite the pressure. But unfortunately, in the auditorium of Carnegie Hall, her dream place, a professional media person left the seat angrily after listening to her tone-deaf opera, and wrote an article "World "The Worst Female Singer" will truthfully report the "car accident scene". Florence finally understood the distance between her and her dream, and passed away in the singing of her hallucinations.
The characters were real and did perform at Carnegie Hall at the age of 76 and died a month later. The real Florence has been a hot spot in the media at the time because of her bizarre performance, but some people think that she has spent her life doing performance art.
When only "hard work" was noticed, and the result was a tragedy
in high school, the boys in the front row of me hummed the songs of Jolin Tsai, SHE, and Stefanie Sun every day, and finally a school-wide singing competition gave him a chance to take the stage. A natural drake voice, no professionally trained dance, made us laugh out loud during the warm-up performance in the class, but in the end he made it to the final with "tenth place" (tenth place) because of his hard work. The spirit of performance impressed the music teacher. Congratulations to the final, he lived up to expectations and won the tenth place. After that, his star dream was also buried in the vast stars. So far, there is still his performance on the commemorative CD engraved in our class, but I have never watched it. I asked all my classmates and they couldn't look directly. A boy sang SHE's "Persian Cat" and "Persian Cat" on the stage. "The Magic" by Stefanie Sun.
There is no "give up" in my dictionary,
as long as you persevere, you will succeed
All kinds of inspirational words are flooding the consciousness of modern workplace people, I don't know whether it is a cardiotonic or a tranquilizer. Maybe in some ways it stabilizes the society, but it also hides some problems. As long as you work hard and don't examine yourself, it is actually another manifestation of modern success.
The sanctified singing of "hard work" and "not giving up" still lost in the 1% of talent, inspiration, and even the lack of opportunity. In the end, it was not only a tragedy, but a farce.
The final counterattack of "study hard"? The thing is to brush the "sense of existence"
Florence seemed to hear herself singing before she died. It was the singing she had always longed for, but she understood that everything was just an auditory hallucination.
A lot of movies will hide chicken soup phrases, maybe the viewers don't know whether they should show joy or sadness at the end, but Florence just said a word weakly.
"people may say I couldn't sing, but no one can say I didn't sing"
(people may say I couldn't sing, but no one can say I didn't sing)
still sounds positive Shore push, don't drown in the torrents set by fate. But this sentence is also blunt.
"Everyone said that I sang badly, but at least everyone knew that it was my mother who sang it!"
A kind of spirit that is like a sense of existence.
Success learning flourished for a while, brainwashing many strangers who struggled in the city. Although the power is not as strong as before, it is still a kind of "medicine", "curing" those people who do not know what success is but scream for their lives. But in the end, they will still wake up. The successful people they worshiped choose their direction and do practical things, and they did not believe in any "success".
After watching this movie, I was determined to delete various WeChat public accounts of "Study hard" that advertised "don't make excuses for failure, only think of ways to succeed" and "success can be achieved as long as you work hard". I suddenly felt that I had been brainwashed for a while, and the various good medicines that were not labeled "study hard" were actually another slogan of "studying successfully" in disguise.
Celebrate the dream, but not the effort itself
"As long as you work hard, you can realize your dreams."
There is no necessary relationship between hard work and dreams, and not all dreams can be realized by hard work. Otherwise, anyone can imagine infinitely about the future.
Originally, there was a little room for praise at the end of the film, but unfortunately I rubbed it to pieces.
Praise the dream, the dream is to guide the direction of your life, no regrets!
But you can't kidnap your dream, as long as you work hard to realize it is actually a kind of kidnapping.
When your efforts don't usher in the slightest echo of your dreams, you know that 1% is the decisive key.
I guess there are 1 million people in the world, including me, who dream of going to the middle of space, but I won't work on it, because my dream has not grown to that height.
Dreams will also grow with you, this is not greed, it is to make yourself continue to live more valuable. If I can be like Elon Musk one day, space travel will be on my to-do list.
(Oh, starting to wonder.)
Don't underestimate your dreams, but don't rely on your hard work.
