There are too many stories about China hurting Zhongyong, the tortoise and the hare, and the stupid bird flying first. Having good talent does not mean you can be lazy.

Let me tell you the story of my friend. I became a colleague before I graduated in my junior year. I got a salary twice as high as my part-time job. In my senior year, I was insured by the school. The classmates were jealous. He drank with me one day and said what he said: After entering the university, when asked in the dormitory, the college entrance examination scores were all higher than me. The superiority disappeared. After three years, the classmates said that I was better than them. Talent, in fact, when they are sleeping, I am studying. When they are playing games, I am studying. When they are picking up girls, I am still studying. That's why I will surpass them in three years.

Let's talk about the famous novelist Llosa. There is a great master in university, who has extraordinary memory, outstanding talents and good looks. Llosa, who thought he was great, was hit. Once, their supervisor asked his master brother to write a paper and publish it in the best weekly magazine in China. The master brother was playing and writing, and finally he was reprimanded by the supervisor before he decided to finish writing. Finally won the national award. Not only did the instructor not praise the master in front of Llosa, he also educates Llosa by the way, saying that although his master is very talented, he likes to exaggerate and talk about his talents and spend his talents on bragging and picking up girls. There is no future in the future, so Llosamo learns. .

Finally, the closest thing to the story is our great man Schwarzenegger. His brother was better than him in every aspect. Schwarzenegger lived in the shadow of his elder brother. One day, his elder brother wanted to pick up girls. I went to practice bodybuilding, and by the way, the younger brother went to attend the class. The younger brother was out of control and found his favorite. On the rest day, the gymnasium did not open the door, smashed into the window, moved the coach, and eventually became a generation of masters. The coach finally came out and said: In fact, I was optimistic about his brother at first, because his size and physique surpassed Schwarzenegger.

Finally, let me talk about talent. When will it be manifested? That is, after making the same effort as others, persisting for ten years, but you can't surpass someone like you, then he will be better than you. Then there is talent in this area.

Just like monkeys and elephants learn to climb trees, even if an elephant puts in a lifetime effort, it is impossible to surpass the monkey.

So the final summary of the film is:

1 You have to find your dream and the right direction like the protagonist.
2 Exhaust your efforts to realize your dreams.
3 Don't do illegal things, after all, you won't be as lucky as the protagonist.

    Vincent: [voiceover] For someone who was never meant for this world, I must confess I'm suddenly having a hard time leaving it. Of course, they say every atom in our bodies was once part of a star. Maybe I'm not leaving... maybe I'm going home.

  • Vincent: Is the only way you can succeed is to see me fail?
