Living in Los Angeles, I'm talking about our two-acre three-part land. I can't help but watch this movie about Los Angeles. After watching it, I feel good, but the more you drag it back and forth, the more you can figure out the taste. Los Angeles is a place where there is no car but the countryside. Only if there is a car, it is like a city. There are very few public buses. They are all driven by cars, so there is no walking, so they can’t hit people on foot, so they all live behind glass and steel.
Although I haven't been here for a long time, and I didn't plan to stay here for another two years, I just decided to experience life when I came, so I still have feelings about the people, things and things here. When I first came, I felt that Los Angeles is really racially diverse. This should be called the World Park. People who walk on the street are almost the same as myself and dare not pretend to be. Korea and Japan are possible. The color is slightly darker. Said it was from India or Pakistan. Be careful to make enemies. I don’t know if the black is native or from Africa. The white one is even more unclear. At that time, I felt that this place was really amazing. What's the problem. Only from the constant black demonstrations, immigrant protests, and movies, things are still there. After watching the movie, I just saw an article on Sina’s last record of the ups and downs of Chinese educated youth, one of which was a special topic about Yan Yunxiang’s transition from educated youth to Harvard Ph.D. ( http://news.sina.com.cn/c/2006-03-20/ 19529396335.shtml), coincidentally, Dr. Yan Yunxiang actually lives in Los Angeles and is a professor at the University of California, Los Angeles. Perhaps Mr. Yan has experienced life from the five black categories to the Harvard Ph.D., from hell to heaven, and learned a lot of truths and published many famous articles. According to the news, Teacher Yan agrees with American values, "a typical flat society, without hierarchical traditions" and "you don't need to do anything against your will or say anything against your heart." It's just that from the movie, even in this kind of America, it may not be true in people's hearts and bones. If bystanders say that many people still did something against their will and said something against their will, in fact, it is possible that they themselves did not think they did something against their will, but they said something against their will. The prosecutor’s wife angered the Mexican locksmith because the car was robbed by a black man. Maybe that’s really her inner world. If the American native didn’t know that she would be angry when the lock was changed, the old policeman hoped to get herself sick. His old father found better medical assistance, but because he was made difficult by the black staff in charge of handling this matter, his grievances exploded on a black couple. How would he deal with it if the driver was a white couple? The police chasing the blacks must always scold the blacks. The young police believed in the black director, but never believed that the black guy sitting next to him was not a gun. If you say that there is no level here, you don’t know whether it’s true or not, but there is black and white in people’s hearts. But on the other hand, the old police will also desperately save people from the car. The blacks also saved a car of illegal immigrants because of kindness. The shop owner’s shop was smashed, and he directly suspected that the Mexican lock was given to change the door. Craftsman, but when he was about to kill someone, the angel saved him... After watching it, it was like hoping that it would snow in Los Angeles. I had no choice but to take "We are equal before God" in this article about Teacher Yan. My hope for the future, at least the current values are just values, God left the sentence "God loves the world" at any rate, regardless of whether he is black or white, good or bad.
Racial discrimination is not far away. The recent French riots and Arab Muslim protests. In the 1950s and 1960s, the United States stipulated that blacks and whites should travel separately, and blacks had to give up seats to whites. Martin Luther King was able to move forward. One step forward, but this Martin Luther King also has a handle for white people to grasp-life ethics, and can let white people talk about how blacks are born like in Crash. A few days ago, there was a post in China asking if there is a non-agricultural household registration in Heaven. People who play games all call the lowest-level mining stuff in the game "farmers". Not long ago, they cursed "Migrant workers!" , "Farmer!" "Soil old hat!", with the old black in the crash scolding the Chinese guy.
Another feeling is a few words from director Paul Haggis: "I didn’t know that person. From a certain point of view, we might not have been involved in each other’s world for the rest of our lives, but now the fact lies with me. In front of him,...I am strongly aware of how'one-sided' my life is. I have not cared about people or things that are not within the scope of my life.. "How big is the scope of a person’s life? Ten thousand miles, answering a hundred emails, talking to a hundred people... The circle is very big, and there are many people he meets, but how many people he really knows and understands? From the beginning of enrollment, students who are good at learning do not stay with those who study poorly. Those who study science and engineering are not in the same circle as those who study literature, and those who do business do not stay with those who do research... Fortunately, some policemen can mix with bad guys. This is not Hong Kong. Reality Infernal Affairs I just staged, maybe we are waiting to see Reality Infernal Affairs II. Among the people I have come into contact with, I admire the second brother of a grandfather's family when he was in college. He was a real migrant worker who went to work on the construction site during the summer vacation of college. It happened that he studied real estate, engaged in construction, and worked on construction sites. In addition to making money, he had a clear understanding of how the foremen on the construction site cut corners and so on. After graduating from university, his work was quickly reused by the company.
Maybe we should also care about people who are not in the scope of our lives. Sometimes what we lose is only some money, and sometimes what we gain is never just money.
