Feast of Humans and Rats of Freedom and Innovation Apple Daily Tao Jie 2007-09-09 Closed on Sunday: A Feast of Humans and Rats of Freedom and Innovation Disney cartoon "Five-Star Rats" is the most pleasing story of this summer vacation─ ─A mouse named Remy is unwilling to be an ordinary animal in the French countryside. When its ethnic group was struggling with rubbish in underground waterways and ditches, Remy read only a cookbook written by celebrity chef Gustu. He had a whimsical idea and only wanted to eat the delicacies of the world. It wandered to Paris, just as Gustu had committed suicide in shame, because recently a harsh and harsh food critic in the city reduced the work of a famous chef from five stars. Remy met a little cook in the kitchen of Gustu restaurant by accident. The little cook was bullied by the new chef, and Remy the mouse taught him to cook the best dishes. Gustu’s ghost helps the little mouse, determined to regain his reputation as a five-star chef. Finally, Remy cooperated with the little kitchen worker, and invited a group of rat races into the kitchen to prepare dinner for the critics who came back to pick faults. After the food critics tasted it, they were shocked to be a natural product. After listening, the food critic fell silent. A few days later, the newspaper published his comment: "In many aspects of life, being a critic is an easy industry. Our risk is small, but we always like to be condescending and judge. The works presented to us are cut off. We like to criticize in a swarm. It is easy to write and enjoyable to read. But in the creative world, works that we denounce as inferior are often more valuable than our comments.
The real risk for critics is to discover a new work and speak nicely to rookies. Last night, I experienced something new, from an unexpectedly high person, I enjoyed a meal. If this dinner and the cook challenged my preconceived notions, it would be too mild to say. The experience of last night impressed me deeply. Gustu said: "Everyone can be a cook." I sneered at this sentence, but now I finally understand the true meaning. Not everyone can be a great artist, but a great artist can come from any corner. Today, the group of people who contribute their cooking skills in the Gustu restaurant is unimaginable. But this column thinks: They are the best chefs in France. I will come back to this restaurant, hungry and looking forward to eating more. "This is a very beautiful piece of prose. The Chinese translation is not enough to convey the simplicity of the original text: I have made no secret of my disdain for Chef Gusteau's famous motto: Anyone can cook. But I realize that only now do I truly understand what he meant. Not everyone can become a great artist, but a great artist can come from anywhere. "Five Star Rat" is not only a children's cartoon, but also the voice of the cartoon creator. A mouse can also be a chef, as long as it has talent and perseverance. The theme of the film not only fits the creation, but also touches on administrative management and business entrepreneurship. The mouse originally lived in the underground gutter. Only Remy had the ambition to be motivated. It fits the famous saying of the British dramatist Wilde: "We all live in the gutter, but some of them will look up to the stars."
The most touching character in "Five Star Rats" is not Remy the mouse, nor the stupid young cook, but the big-minded food critic. For new creations and new things, food critics have no dogma, no baggage, and no jealousy. This is the reason for the global authority of French food rating agency Michelin. Only in a free and democratic environment, with such a measurement and new themes, new works, and new styles, in a closed society will inevitably be suppressed by conservative forces. In the movie, there is also a role like an official of the health bureau. He received a whistleblower that there were rats in the kitchen and sealed the restaurant. However, the food critics' rulings were above the health law and insisted on a little justice for the world. The literary and political levels of "Five Star Rats" are very rich. There is a very interesting dialogue in the film: "Humans are good at creating, and rats only take it" (The human creates, and rats only take). This sentence should represent that European and American intellectual and technological property rights are widely plagiarized today. And the anger of counterfeiting, the frank words and vivid metaphors are amazing. Although it will hurt the fragile feelings of certain nations. The release of "Five Star Rats" coincided with the change of French president. The new President Sarkozy changed his predecessor Chirac's style, changed to a pro-American route, and considered sending troops to Iraq. "Five Star Rats" was produced in the United States, with a background in Paris, and the theme of French cuisine. It is a big hit in the United States and France. It is a gift for the United States and France to restore the old, maintain international order, and have a heavy political honeymoon.
Finally, when food critics tasted the famous dishes cooked by mice, they couldn't help being touched. They remembered the scene of his mother in the kitchen when he was a child, with the sentiment of Proust's "Reminiscence of the Past Water Years". The little mouse Remy finally saw the dazzling sea of lights on the roof of Paris. This scene is a tribute to the French novelist Balzac's "The Old Man". ──After the death of Old Man Gao, the hero of the novel Rasternak went to the funeral of Old Man Gao. From the hillside overlooking the night lights of Paris, facing the prosperity of the industrial capital society, he whispered: "Paris, I coming". Literary classics and sentimentality are the same today and ancient times. In the ending subtitles of "Five Star Rats", there is a long list of staff behind the scenes, including Americans, French, Arabs, and Indians, who are the choreographers and artists. Great artists can come from any corner of the world. Isn’t this the free and broad spirit of the United States? Such a moving work can only be produced by American talents and blends with French culture. "Five Star Rats" won the applause from both sides of the Atlantic. When the singing of Bavario diminished, this year's summer vacation was over, which made people feel relieved in the loss.
