After watching the film, do you still remember the poor migrant worker - accountant Terry?
He's a dedicated accountant, doing repetitive, boring work day in and day out - counting souls to the end of their lives. When he found out that there was one less soul leading to the end, he told his colleagues, hoping they could help him find the lost soul together. But his colleagues didn't try to help him at all, telling him it was his job and leaving him alone. When he finally found the information about the lost soul, his colleagues told him to let him go to the world to find it by himself. But when he finally found the soul and took it back to where it should be, the soul was opened by Terry's colleague because of a good deed, and sent back to the world directly. The colleague also deliberately took away Terry, and then used his instrument to add one more. Seeing this, I'm really sad for Terry. Are little people supposed to be teased casually?
When everyone is watching film and television works, they are standing from the perspective of God, and they may not care so much about the emotions of such an inconspicuous little person. But in real life, most of us are actually little people like Terry. We work hard, but no matter how hard we try, it seems hard to get the reward we want. And some people with strong backgrounds can always get rewards like promotion faster without paying as much as us. The world is so unfair sometimes.
Remember the Yang accountant in the TV series "Secret and Great"? He also worked so hard, but in the end it ended in a wrongful death. The little policeman Zhao Zhiyong, who has no background, is not bad by nature, but he has been used as a gunman all the time, and he has not even seen the last side of his mother. The protagonist of the Russian writer Gogol's "Overcoat", which I read some time ago, is also a similar little person. He desperately saved up to buy a decent jacket that would withstand the cold, and the new jacket was not taken long before the bully plundered it. I almost cried when I saw that he ended up falling ill and died because he didn't have enough clothes to keep out the cold, but the station was assigned to a new employee the next day. Are small people born to be played by others or fate?
I hope that everyone will spend some time to speculate on the hearts of the little people when watching film and television works. I also hope that writers or screenwriters can treat the little characters in their own works a little more, and don't write them to death like the TV series "The Great Pediatrician".
