Americans are destined to be bad at making "Roses and Red Lotus". I don't blame anything else, but the grass doesn't grow on their ancestral graves. To put it bluntly, "Rose and Red Lotus" is a story that can only be established in the context of oriental culture. Beginning with the 18th-century Joseon classic novel of the same name, this is a thriller that has thoroughly integrated the oriental family ethics. Chinese people attach importance to blood ties, which is the tradition of the Western Zhou clan and legal society. Confucius taught filial piety, and then monarch, minister, minister, father and son, to achieve political clarity. This is the ultimate ideal, and the ethicalization of political thinking is the way to achieve it. The Chinese attach so much importance to blood kinship, but a side effect has been born, that is, the stepmother culture. In individual families, members who are not related by blood will hate each other to the point of drinking blood and eating meat, which is an understandable phenomenon in China. The word "stepmother" is by no means equivalent to the literal meaning of "stepmother", which purely represents an ethical relationship. This is a thrilling word for single-parent children. It refers to the darkest loophole in the Eastern ethics. There is a kind of Bitter cultural conditions, women who entrust their careers and spirits to family life will inevitably compete for the family's spiritual and material resources, and the basis for their gangs is blood relationship.

How do Americans know what a stepmother is? So the stepmother was changed into a good person, and the problem lies with the stepdaughter, who is a schizophrenic and has some of Freud's Electra complex. As a result, this oriental family ethics story was completely destroyed and remodeled by the Western value orientation. Its biggest adaptation lies not in the innovation of suspense, but in the subversion and reconstruction of the theme. own spirit.

Wouldn't it be nice, you could say? Let the stepmother talk about the rebirth of America, which is free, democratic, and human rights, because the stepmother is the dross of traditional Chinese culture, and it is an inferiority that is difficult for the Chinese to domesticate, but I don't see it that way. Chinese parents are the most dedicated to their duties in the world. As long as they survive, they will give unreservedly to their children. Of course, the premise is that you are her own. I am a child who has enjoyed this kind of sacrifice, how can I say that he is not good? It's like a person who obtained a degree from the Chinese education system in turn speaks about the misunderstanding of this system. If this system is perfect, it may not be what you are today. Isn't it too ironic to speak ill of it at this moment?

The Master once said, "Do not do to others what you do not want to do to yourself. The God of the Westerners also said, "I will repay my retribution. These two sentences have the same meaning. , you little dog is meddling with the mouse, besides, this nosy thing is still pressing your tail, isn't it necessary to talk and fight?
