Moving

I don't know what degree to call it a god, I don't know if Erlang is really the first person in sushi, I don't even know if Erlang's sushi tastes like the sushi made by other people No, after watching this film, I was just moved and shocked by this thin old man who looked like my grandfather.
The five characteristics of a good chef are mentioned in the film, and the deepest impression on me is the love of cleanliness, love and efforts to improve their skills. What Erlang wears most in the film is his overalls, white shirt, and metal glasses without borders. Seeing him, I just feel refreshed. I don't believe this is an 80-year-old old man. After all, under normal circumstances, many old people can't take care of their own hygiene at this stage. other people's eyes. After watching the video, I was thinking, where is Erlang's god? Erlang said a word, he said that in his dreams he would make sushi, and he said that many ideas emerged one after another in his dreams. It is impossible to pretend to love this emotion. Otherwise, why do they have to supervise the apprentices to massage the octopus every day when they are already so famous all over the world. I haven't been successful, I haven't got a job yet, and I don't know if I'll love my future job so much, but I'm sure I'm longing for Erlang's purity, for his fiery and lasting love for his work. He has heard the title of "the first person in sushi" so many times, has been praised countless times in person, and seen countless satisfied smiles from customers, but he still regrets his sense of smell, and is still constantly trying to improve himself. Perfect technology. Such people are deaf in their ears and blind in their eyes. They will not hear and turn a blind eye to many things. Such people will feel as if there is a blue sea and blue sky or a golden wheat field there.
The climax of the film can be said to be a complete presentation of Erlang's "Sushi Symphony". Classics first, improvisations second, and return to tradition at last. The most touching thing is Erlang's meticulous observation of customers. The film also includes close-ups of Erlang observing customers. I don't know how to describe it, but watching the whole process will make my eyes watery. He is a professional, and has achieved the ultimate professional.
In fact, what impresses me more is the portrayal of apprenticeship life. Zhenyi said that there was an apprentice who did not persevere for a day, which shows that perseverance is not easy. Ten years after ten years, day after day, I don't know how many people can persevere, but I am sure that if it is just to gain a false name or to make money, I am afraid that there is no way to persevere. I can't imagine the mood of the apprentice at the moment when I have been bad at frying eggs and finally got the approval of Erlang. I just thought, if it were me, I must have given up 100 times 1000 times.
I like the last shot of the film, the kind old man, on the train that he takes every day, smiles cutely or shyly.

    The meaning of Jidao is not only that you are born with talents, not only do you work harder than others every day, but you can persist for a long time or even die without stopping. The level of talent is different. For example, the sense of smell and taste of Michelin's French chefs may be true. There are several levels above Jiro, but the so-called skill of dripping water and penetrating stones after a long period of tempering is also the ultimate reality that can exceed the limits of the five senses. It is the most hopeful thing for young people.

    Clean and refined. This reminds me of the AV that belongs to Japan. Craftsmen, no matter how capable they are, they will never forget.

Jiro Dreams of Sushi quotes

  • Shrimp Dealer: These days the first thing people want is an easy job. Then, they want lots of free time. And then, they want lots of money. But they aren't thinking of building their skills. When you work at a place like Jiro's, you are committing to a trade for life.

  • Jiro Ono: When I was in school... I was a bad kid. Later, when I was invited to give a talk at the school, I wasn't sure if I should tell the kids that they should study hard... or that it is okay to be a rebel. I wasn't sure what advice to give the kids. Studying hard doesn't guarantee you will become a respectable person. Even if you're a bad kid... there are people like me who change. I thought that would be a good lesson to teach. But if I said that bad kids can succeed later on like I did... all the kids would start misbehaving which would be a problem. Always doing what you are told doesn't mean you'll succeed in life.
