The story is actually very simple. A middle-class father, in order to prevent his own daughter from repeating his "failure life", planned his daughter’s journey abroad, but as hidden incidents were exposed and fermented, he eventually collapsed and was unable to control. A story that had to be accepted with relief.
But why are the outer phase and core of the story so familiar and so different? During the filming process, I felt that this is too Chinese. First of all, the pressure of entering a higher school, the college entrance examination, this is not unfamiliar, and the whole family can help the children. Key universities, with a little ability, will definitely arrange for their children to go abroad. The protagonist of this play, at least the deputy chief doctor of a public hospital, can recognize many high-end connections, rich family background, and a daughter who is expected to get Cambridge. The notice from the university, they are capable of arranging everything for their children. In the play, the father asked her to receive foreign language education since she was a child, to make up the best cram school, is it particularly familiar, and the educational context is exactly the same: my mother and I have already In this way, this country and this society are already like this. It is not worth your stay. I don't want you to repeat our path. I want to arrange the best for you. You should live the best life I think you should live. ..
However, this is not the Chinese version of a child’s advancement to school. The story hides a lot of embarrassment. The mother suffers from depression, can’t leave her hands all day, and has headaches and brain fever. He seems to be a father who has a superb outlook but is a cheating man. , Has betrayed the family spiritually, this is already a fragmented middle-class family, as long as the daughter leaves the country, it will immediately fall apart.
But because of the accidental attack on his daughter before the exam, all these contradictions came ahead of schedule. The father tried his best to maintain the beauty of appearance. He took the last bit of intellectual stubbornness and did what he thought was the most valuable and meaningful fight in life. As long as the daughter is sent abroad, he will bear all the consequences, but can he bear the problem?
There is a detail in the play. He drove home at night, stopped halfway, and cried bitterly in a flower bush.
Although he told his daughter more than once in the play that the result is more important than the process, when he had to find a backdoor for his daughter’s relationship, he actually felt moral guilt in his heart. In the conversation between him and his wife, I can feel the anxiety in his heart. People always seek out their uneasy heart, emphasize the uncertainties, and find reasons for the price. If he is not such a person in nature, he will not discuss with his wife at all. , Discuss, explain with your daughter, and emphasize that only when you are at ease, you really don’t have any sense of shame and don’t bother to find a reason.
In the play, we can at least see that he is a person with professional ethics. The relationship between colleagues, classmates, and doctor-patient relationships is all good. He has the pride and honesty of being an intellectual, and he has passed this pride to himself. His daughter, although he has lost faith in this persistence in his heart.
He has made friends with the powerful, he has had a "deal" with the society he hates, he has turned himself into a hate person, and the cause and effect are reversed, he is already powerless and self-consistent, and everything that happens later is inevitable. When her daughter is in When the mistress's family found him, he knew that all the words and rumors between him and her daughter were of no value, and the normal care and communication in the past was very likely to fall apart!
Looking back, if this matter is placed in China, trusting relations, making friends with powerful people, going through the back door, trading money and giving red envelopes, it is no longer an unspoken rule, but a clear rule. Chinese people have long formed a moral self-consistent, and peace of mind. Become a survival tool, fight daddy, fight for places, have a backstage, this thing is easy to use, how can there be a sense of shame, how can there be communication, how can there be introspection?
Obviously he is a doctor in a big hospital. Isn’t it right to make friends with powerful people? When it’s inconvenient for everyone, you help me and I help you, you help him and he helps me. Everyone will try to help, the society is more harmonious, and receiving red envelopes is not Should it be, in order to reassure patients, after all, their lives are in my hands?
Yes, this society is like this anyway, if you don’t, others will be like this, and when you find a reason, you become more at ease.
This is too familiar, and the familiar ones feel terrifying. The sheriff’s classmates are well-connected and understand that the deputy mayor is in urgent need of liver replacement treatment, so he introduced the deputy mayor to him, and he can arrange the deputy mayor’s liver replacement plan in advance and Personally, the deputy mayor called the chairman of the examination committee because the deputy mayor kept his wife’s job in the city hall. When he went to find the principal the next day, the principal spared no effort to plan the details of the cheating. There is no need to talk about money before and after. He is familiar with his classmate, the sheriff, and when things show signs of being revealed, the principal is afraid to avoid it. The window is only half rolled down and he is told not to contact him anymore. .
Is all this too familiar?
This is the root of the disease in this country, the root of what he really hates, who made this country like this, everyone is selfish and powerful, his daughter was almost raped in broad daylight and passers-by turned a blind eye, no one was a witness, that girl 'S boyfriend may be one of the passers-by.
In order to escape this society and allow her daughter to go abroad to accept higher-ranking life experience, she must cheat and operate in a dark box to turn herself into a member of this disgusting society, and then abandon herself. This is the father in the play, and even the parents of the society as a whole. The crux of logic.
But in the end, I was relieved that I saw that he was ashamed, and in this shame there was the last insistence on the bottom line.
In the play, under the serious threat of the prosecutor, the father still refuses to be interrogated when the deputy mayor is critically ill. This is the last insistence on his career. Under the embarrassment on all sides, he calmly faced the disintegration of his family and committed crimes for himself. Wrong paid enough to give his wife a final account to his lover, and finally accepted her daughter's decision calmly, and eased her inner trauma in a quiet voice, instead of hysterically criticizing her daughter for "willful and willful" in the name of love Interference, thereby further deepening the gap between father and daughter.
Everyone makes mistakes, and everyone makes mistakes. It’s just that many people are not aware of it but are proud of it, because society is already like this, and some people evade the price, thus shifting the responsibility to their wives and children, and there is nothing wrong with marriage and relatives. Without the heart of gratitude and cherishment, there are even more people who are willing to fall, knowing that they have made mistakes, and also lead their children in the wrong direction, because the result is more important than the process!
I think that the father in the play is still a respectable person, because he is ashamed. Shame makes you know that you are wrong and you are wrong. There is no reason to graft to anyone. Should let go, we must let go.
I believe that good people are rewarded. Under his years of education, my daughter has maintained her original persistence. She has not cheated.
