Looking at the poster and the name is easy to think of "Alice in Wonderland", and after reading it, I feel that this intuition is more reliable. It's more like a dream.
An unlucky magician who lives in the circus by tricks, dreams of becoming a great man like Edison, but in reality he has to perform in a humble shed to a numb and critical audience for a few copper coins. After his girlfriend wants to marry, but the groom is not him, he is hunted down, flees in embarrassment, encounters a tornado, and strays into Wonderland, and begins a series of stories of small people becoming heroes through hard work.
Although the plot is cliché, it always gives me an inexplicable sense of desolation. He even felt that from the time his girlfriend broke up, the beginning of his escape to the end, it was a dream, and he woke up still in a moving circus and was laughed at by the spectators. Or maybe every ordinary person has the dream of a great man, but few people have such luck to stray into the fairyland. Ordinary like me, it is at most a daydream. When you wake up, you can only rub your eyes and continue to face. The life of little people who are mechanical day by day.

Let's look at the fairyland where Diaosi counterattacks the great man. It's not a replica of the human world. Mingjun is murdered and in power, right and wrong are reversed and goodness is deceived. The people are just the objects to be deceived. distinguish. Even if the so-called good people win and regain lost ground in the end, they are relying on not-so-righteous "deceivers". All the people can rely on is the man sitting on top of the castle holding the scepter, preferably a good man.

The ending of the fairy tale is of course beautiful, but the reality is difficult to be satisfactory.
