professor
A postdoc in his 30s, he has a very straightforward personality and is not very familiar with the world. After being selected as a professor, he was idle at home, doing household chores such as cooking and taking out garbage at home every day, and his dissatisfaction was increasing day by day. The wife is a pregnant woman who is about to give birth, but she still works in the company and earns a meager salary. Almost all sources of family income depend on his wife.
One day, I talked to my classmates on the phone and learned that my failure in the selection process was because other people gave gifts and the position was taken away. The poor professors are even more helpless and angry, and the full of dissatisfaction has nowhere to vent.
One day the professor at home was often disturbed by the sharp dog barking, so when he was depressed and had nowhere to release, he became angry with the dog that noisy him. He decided to take revenge and keep the dog quiet forever. , But also began to fight back against the unsatisfactory real life.
One time when he was taking out the garbage and going upstairs, he finally found a dog, so he grabbed it. When he was about to hang him, he felt a little unbearable. In desperation, I thought of a way to do both, and put the dog in an old closet in the basement debris pile and let it fend for itself.
That day and night, the professor asked to attend a class reunion, and learned that his professorship still had hope at the party. Just need to give gifts, a sum of money for him. The drunk professor went home to tell his sleeping wife his inner thoughts: I hope to get the title of professor. While speaking, the sharp dog barking sounded again, awakening the drunk professor. The professor ran out the door and looked around and found that it was the dog that a mother-in-law was holding was barking. The professor who noticed that he had caught the wrong dog immediately went downstairs to the basement and found that the dog he had caught by mistake had been slaughtered by the caretaker and was ready to be cooked.
The professor who threw the garbage downstairs the next day encountered the mother-in-law who was walking the dog last night, so he followed and found a chance to steal the dog. This time he made up his mind to kill the dog, and never relented. He went to the rooftop and threw the dog from the top of the dozens of stories high.
One day the professor was calling around at home to borrow money for the title of professor, and suddenly discovered that his wife returned from get off work actually bought a dog. The professor who could not borrow the money and was not understood by his wife began to blame his wife and blame her for her own treatment. She didn't support her career and didn't care and she spent money indiscriminately. His wife also sneered, saying that buying the dog was her own money, and asked the professor to help with the dog. The unemployed professor can only accept it and let it go. In the evening, they quarreled with each other about dog food.
One day, the helpless professor was walking the dog, and accidentally lost the dog one afternoon, but found it to be dark. After arriving home, he had a fierce dispute with his wife. During the quarrel, he learned that his wife had resigned, bought a dog for the pension, and prepared to give the remaining money to the professor as a gift. The professor knew he had wronged his wife and was full of guilt, so he went out and continued looking for the dog.
The professor who posted the enlightenment of finding a dog met Xiao Li who worked in the neighborhood committee. From her mouth, she learned that the puppy who was thrown downstairs by the professor was the companion of the mother-in-law. The old woman passed away a few days after losing her puppy. Having made a big mistake, full of guilt, I have a deeper understanding and recognition of my wife's buying a dog.
Finally the dog was found, and the wife took out the remaining money. The professor held the bribe money tightly on the way to the gift. When he met an old woman begging in the subway, he took a sheet from the pile of money and handed it over.
When he finally became a professor facing his students, he was silent for a long time. He didn’t know whether the professorship he got from bribery was correct; he didn’t know whether he would accept bribes from others in the future; Those who raise their dogs privately by the rules and regulations, he is not sure whether he should approve or not. Finally, thinking of the banknote given to the old woman in the subway might give him some peace of mind when he did some illegal actions.

Pei Dou Na
As a fresh graduate, she works in the neighborhood committee and is responsible for doing some account settlement every day, as well as the mechanical work of helping neighbours in the neighbourhood to stamp the notice of missing objects. She very much hopes to be famous and attract much attention. I also often help others enthusiastically, hoping to be recognized by others. But often because of her wishful thinking and excessive enthusiasm, she sometimes even helped unfavorably and often couldn't please.
One day in the middle of the night, after being teased by a phone claiming to be a TV station, she was so depressed that she wanted to vent, so she lit a cigarette in front of the window and smoked like a fat girl, but coughed constantly.
Once I watched TV with my good friend Fat Niu in the grocery store, and saw a news report on TV about a female bank employee bravely fighting a gangster. She watched it very seriously and was envious. She secretly made up her mind to bravely rush up whenever there is a chance to see bad things, and fight hard to be on TV.
Finally, when she was bored, she saw someone throwing the dog out on the rooftop, and she ran to chase after him. It took a lot of money to let the opponent run away in the end. When drinking with her friend Fat Niu at night, she vowed to say: If it weren't for the door to block the way, I can guarantee that the culprit will be brought down.
One day, Pei Douna on the rooftop suddenly found a homeless man preparing to slaughter a dog lost by the residents. She secretly determined that she must fight bravely this time to rescue the dog. After a few thrilling confrontations, the puppy was finally rescued. The tramp was also subdued by his friend Fat Niu and taken away by the police.
In front of the TV, Pei Douna watched the news about her heroic deeds with her family. The report of fighting the dog gangsters bravely and subduing the gangsters was broadcast on TV, but Pei Douna did not appear, but was taken by the "kind citizens" in the host's mouth. Pei Douna was extremely disappointed at the TV. Due to frequent absent-minded work, which led to miscalculations of several accounts, the supervisor decided to expel Pei Douna.
On the day of their resignation, after having fun with the fat girl to release their inner depression, they decided to travel and finally gave up the obsession of their heroic dreams. I chose an ordinary and comfortable road.
She has always wanted to prove her value through some special events (except for unconventional events such as reading, work, etc.), so she has always hoped to have the opportunity to appear on TV. Fighting dog catchers so desperately,
In essence, she is a person who does not follow the rules, and in the end she did not become the person she wanted to be, so she gave up the irregular gameplay (that is, famous) and accepted the ordinary life within the rules.
Wives, ordinary citizens, do not have their own opinions on the rules, put their positions in peace, and buy dogs with the public (passerby type A)
Fat girl, Junyong, female classmate, the director who understands the rules, understands what songs to sing in the mountains (the person who really understands the rules is also the most ordinary person)
Administrators, speculators outside the rules, violate the rules, (administrators during the day, dog-eaters at night)
The old woman, a selfish who doesn’t follow the rules, is pitiful and ignorant, everything is controlled by others (one spitting and the other urinating and urinating are the finishing touches to the character)
Aunt begging, a speculator within the rules, does not violate the rules or obey the rules, finds his own law of survival within the rules
The child in the yellow raincoat is the simplest person and the most vulnerable person. This person serves as a mirror for all other characters.
The intersection of heroes and heroines
The professor is clever and has strong learning ability. After completing his Ph.D., he selects the title of professor. But he was unsuccessful. The Ph.D. can be achieved by his own study, but the professorship title is not enough. That's the dean's ability to decide. It depends on interpersonal relationships and underlying rules. Having followed the rules for so many years, for the first time I felt that the experience value I followed was not working, and there was no obvious opponent to vent his hatred. It is latent, cannot be described in detail, and has no channels, but it is the most effective rule. He needs to explode. Someone must come out to act as a punching bag, so the anger and anger directly affect the dog that upsets him.
Pei Douna looks ordinary, studies mediocre, and works mediocre, but she always wants to dream of heroes and always wants to be famous to prove her life value. She wants to prove her self-worth through certain events (except for studying and working). So she bet her self-worth on anyone who needs help in order to gain recognition from others, and she fantasizes that she is an expert at solving problems. She took the initiative to give up her seat to the aunt twice, promised to help the child paste the dog-hunting revelation, took the initiative to help the old woman to the hospital and visit her, and took the initiative to help the professor find the dog and fight the gangsters. She is actually a person who does not work with rules and is a speculator.
Pei Douna found the dog for the professor, and the professor's title was also selected. When she met on the street that night, the professor thanked Pei Douna for her help and voluntarily admitted that she was the one who stole the dog last time, but Li Jing could not recognize it, maybe The director doesn't need her to recognize it. Because the professor is the only one who can prove her self-worth and appreciate her. She found her self-worth because of his gratitude. She was essentially unruly, so she didn't need the truth. Therefore, for the time being, the professor can continue to live his good life with the “stain” of the past with peace of mind.
Interesting plot point
1. The old woman spit out everywhere, indicating that she was unruly and ignorant. She said: "Dried radishes need hot sun, but God always doesn't help." It shows that she lives in a primitive life, and even exposes things and even weather forecasts. Don't pay attention, it's a person who takes one step and counts one step. People who can't keep up with the times at all, but are also abandoned in the trend of the times.
2. The professor hangs a dog in the basement. He accidentally sees himself in the mirror. When he looks at himself, he also evaluates himself. He has a guilty conscience, he is not cruel enough, he is weak or kind. In short, he moved his compassionate heart, so he chose Put the dog in the abandoned closet and let it fend for itself.
3. Dried radishes that were soaked in the rain corresponded to the old lady's saying that God doesn't help. Deepen the misfortune of the old woman.
4. For Walnut, this is a film about "Analysis of Modern People's Thinking and Behaviour". Walnut is very similar to the human brain and fits this setting very well.
5. The professor met a classmate in the toilet who told him that the position of the professor was still in play, indicating that the news was not bright and good news. It carried a kind of "dirty feeling". Later, he learned that the original professor had died unexpectedly and the position was vacant. Gifts and bribes can get that position. The environment matches the content, and this news is best heard in the toilet.
6. The female protagonist smokes after being teased by a prank phone, indicating that she wants to be bad, which is an external manifestation of a defense mechanism. When it becomes bad, no one dares to bully, but she coughs frequently. She asked the fat girl about smoking and coughing. Yeah, the fat girl said not to cough. Explain that some things are difficult to learn and vary from person to person.
7. The professor steals the old woman's dog. This section is very interesting. Use apples to adjust the tiger away from the mountain.
8. Rolling paper towels is also very clever. In order to prove that the road is more than 100 meters, the more real professor used paper towels to measure the distance, which is also a complaint of dissatisfaction with his wife's dog. It also shows the character of the professor who has a stern look and acts according to the rules.
9. Taking off the rearview mirror of the car means the heroine's determination to be famous. The irony is that she struggled so hard but couldn't get it off, but the fat girl kicked it off. It shows that the two people have completely different personalities, even complementary personalities, and they are simply a natural pair.
10. The professor saw a lottery ticket while walking the dog, and carefully scratched off the coating. Here, the helplessness of the characters is entrusted to the ethereal luck, deepening the helplessness and the absurdity of the characters' hearts.
11. The professor copied the dog-seeking revelation and talked about the nosebleed when throwing the dog thief from the roof, which shows that the professor has done something irregular to himself and dare not admit it is an external manifestation of inner anxiety.
12. The hostess was called back to the office when he helped the professor to post the dog-hunting revelation, but he walked over the wall, indicating that the hostess is not a person who does things according to the rules.
13. When the heroine fights a tramp to grab a dog, countless people around her fantasize about shouting, which shows that she has a strong desire to be famous.
14. A homeless man urinates anywhere, which shows that he is not a law-abiding person, just like an old woman.
15. The evil of the little boy who steals things contrasts with the innocence of the little girl in the yellow raincoat. In the face of social rules, people of all ages and strata have rules and unruliness. This is human nature and penetrates into human genes.
16. The cake cannot be put in the cake box after money is put in it. The implication is very clear. The cake represents goodness. How can it stay with the dirty money for bribery? Those goodness that represents the cake also show the meaning of resistance at this moment.
17. When the professor and the hostess were drunk on the run that night, the professor's right shoe fell off. I instantly remembered that when the tramp was caught by the police, the left shoe fell off. Quite interesting. One was an unruly activist homeless man who immediately entered the detention center where eating and drinking Lazard must be done properly. He was about to have to abide by the rules, so the shoe on his left foot fell off. The other is that the honest professor is about to be awarded the title of professor after the bribery. He changed his previous honesty and began to walk in an unruly way, so his right shoe also fell.
18. The ending song is very interesting. The final chorus is just what the director wants to express with helpless roar and roar towards reality.
(I thought to what extent the director was awkward at that time)
