The protagonist Howard really exists in every corner of society and fights for his own desires. Although some ways are wrong in our opinion, he is real and meaningful. He may be a small boss who takes loans to chase the milk tea craze, he may be a young man who has just graduated to sell tea but is jealous and longing for life, he may be a venture capitalist who fantasizes about catching up with the wind, or he may want to Wechat merchants who often travel abroad. . . Desire itself is the original sin, which is beyond reproach. Accompanied by a stone that was bought cheaply and wanted to fetch a high price, the story goes on and on, the debt was collected by usury, deceived the creditor, and pawned the guest's belongings. . . All the dishonesty and belittling are actually just a way to turn around in his view. Howard's life has a sense of reality, with a seemingly harmonious family, a small company that is on the verge of bankruptcy, and a mistress, so this film The sense of substitution is strong and resonant. What Howard did was not meant to be bad, he didn't intend to hurt others, but it was disgusting. Desire was the original sin. Right or wrong, the audience felt emotional, and it was a good film.
