You were the darling of capital in the last second, but you may become the outcast of capital in the next second.
The world of capital is so bloody and cruel, it can easily sweep away everything you have no matter who you were.
Capital is ruthless and has its own set of rules. It does not take into account whether the Zimbabwe lemon farmers live well, and it does not estimate the traditional beliefs of Kansas farmers. He only cares about how much interest eventually enters his pockets, and what he cares about is the constant appreciation of himself.
Eisenberg once again played the role of an entrepreneur, but this time he played not the successful and dazzling Zuckerberg in the last "Social Network", but the one who often failed and was rarely paid attention to-Wen Senter Larjeski.
If you build a pipeline that goes straight to Kansas and New York, you can save 1 millisecond of time and you can make tens of billions of dollars a year. This sounds really crazy. But the real world is so crazy. In other words, capital is so crazy.
The stock traders sitting in front of the computer are scrambling for the transaction orders every day. Each of them is the most direct expression of the will of the capital movement. In order to catch up with competitors, even a millisecond lead can bring tens of thousands of benefits, and they are also willing to pay a considerable price for such a lead. In order not to be overtaken by others, capital began to flock frantically to this one-millisecond opportunity. This is also the logic of the development of this film.
All the ideas are beautiful. But the reality is a stern teacher, she will slap you severely when you make a mistake, even if you can get through, difficult lessons will still follow.
In the end, when Vincent left everything, desperate, seeing the project success in sight. Competitors quietly gave it a fatal blow.
Professor Luo Xiang said: "In life, we can control only 5% of our own."
When starting a business, it is a process of fighting the other 95% of the unknown in life. Many people, they tried everything, but in the end they still failed. So entrepreneurial success cannot be attributed to personal hard work, but should be attributed to fortune. It is the environment you live in that makes your success.
In the process, more people were swallowed up by capital, and there was even no chance of turning over again. This should be a point to be explained in the film.
Capital is ruthless, but the development of the world still needs capital to drive, but it is not only driven by capital.
This year, in the internal volume, the term has aroused widespread attention. We are opposed to involution, not against competition, but against the excessive squeeze of our labor value in pursuit of growth by capital, which makes our lives tired and tired, and makes our lives boring and painful.
There is love in the world. Just like the end of the film: Vincent and Anton’s siblings support each other, Mark and Vincent share the joy of the successful completion of the project (although the project failed), Vincent and the farmers after removing the underground pipes of the Kansas farmhouse understanding.
It is the fetters between people, the time and sincerity spent with each other, that can heal our spiritual wounds, so that we can still be motivated when we are tired, and there is still hope when we are desperate.
This film can be said to reflect the criticism and expression of Americans against capitalist manipulation in recent years.
From the decision of every household on the pipeline to the operation of project investment and construction, people’s attitude towards capital and the behavioral deviation caused by capital are shown in every aspect.
As a small individual, I feel fortunate that I do not live in a country where all systems are designed to serve capital.
As said at the end of the film:
Vincent asked: "What will we do when we own Wall Street?"
Anton replied: "We burned it on fire. Then we had a barbecue next to the farm in Zimbabwe."
Capital is ruthless, and there is love in the world.
