No matter how beautiful the colors, if you just mix them together at will, you can only get dirty black.
But if you combine various colors together, you can get a gorgeous colorful phoenix.
I think this is what the animation wants to say.
With the pace of globalization, industrialization, and urbanization, the original colorful cultures are gradually replaced by the same characteristics, and finally become boring copies.
This is true of culture, and so are people.
The boy looked for his father among the workers' army, only to find that everyone had become exactly the same. Everyone in the factory wears the same overalls and performs the same repetitive mechanical actions. In the eyes of a few-year-old child, it is really no different from a copy.
In fact, industrialization and urbanization itself is not so terrible. In the animation, whether the boy’s hometown or the city, there are beautiful places. Simply praising one party and belittling the other is too simplistic and rude.
The only difference is that every plant in the hometown is different, and the more the city evolves, the more elements it repeats.
Repeated stairs, repeated gates, repeated buildings, repeated production lines, repeated vehicles, repeated advertisements.
Just like what I see every time I go to various cities, just looking at the street scenes, every city is actually similar.
Globalization has brought us convenience, and it has also brought us many common topics.
But if one day, every corner of the earth becomes the same, and people's favorite objects become the same, that would be a terrible thing.
Without a distinctive regional culture, the world will only make people feel gloomy and boring.
You don’t even have to expand to the world, even if it’s just in one country, if there are no different pictures, no different voices, and no different thoughts, it’s a terrible thing.
To make the world colorful, and to prevent Caifeng from being swallowed by the black eagle, we need diversified thoughts and voices, as well as an inclusive and diversified vision and mind.
I hope Caifeng will never disappear.
The small details in the p film that impressed me.
As he gets closer and closer to the city, there are fewer and fewer animal images in the boy's eyes. Finally, in the floating city in the air, all the animal images finally disappear completely.
