Light boat over heavy mountains

"The God of Sushi" is not about sushi, nor is it Jiro Ono, although I am so greedy for sushi, I adore the old man to the ground. "The God of Sushi" is actually about an attitude. You can't say that all Japanese people can do this, and you can't say that all Chinese people can't do it, but obviously, as far as we can see, Japan's professional Human spirit deserves admiration. To be an apprentice, the first thing is to twist the towel by hand, which will burn your hands. Learn to wring the towel, then use the knife and handle the fish. After ten years of cooking, I started to fry eggs, and after four months of scrapping more than 200, the first qualified product appeared. Ten years, ten years when even eggs can't be fried well, this kind of blow is terrifying. Massage the octopus, fan the rice, pick only the best fish, there are only ten seats. This extreme is simply more terrifying. Those who cherish a grain of rice, a shrimp and a fish have the feeling of cooking rice, which is a mountain beyond the reach of the factory assembly line. People who care about state affairs and people's livelihood are great, and those who insist on small things are even greater. Simple and pure, nothing to do with utilitarianism, just to keep improving and keep moving forward. The peak is there, just climb hard. "Once you decide on a career, you have to put your heart into your work, you have to love your job, never complain, you have to hone your skills for the rest of your life, that's the secret of success and the key to being respected ." And the most charming place in Japan, in addition to the beautiful scenery, is this focus, intention and extreme. I would like to encourage myself.
