After watching it, I think it will be easier to understand our despicable big companies and innocents like you and me if I can combine this film with another Oscar-winning documentary, Dolphin Bay and our professor Lang's remarks. common people. First of all, the film begins by explaining a cruel fact: that all our food, water, and even air are not presented to us as they should be, but are fed to us in the form of industrialized products, and this Several major grain merchants and food companies are so powerful that they can control or influence the government's decision-making. They use their funds, influence and a series of public relations means to arrange the senior management of their companies in the key departments of the government in charge of food safety and even to the United States. the Ministry of Agriculture, thereby forcing the government to make policies that are only powerful for itself. When you see such a cruel reality in front of you, if it is the first time you know it, then your feeling should be, really? ? f**k the gov, son of ****. What I want to say is that European and American thinking is like this. He always presents the most important conclusions in front of you without any concealment, and then explains the details. Let me tell you the truth, let you die once, and then slowly torture your common sense and consciousness, and destroy all the common sense and values you have built since childhood.
I would like to think about it based on what I know now. First of all, in order to meet the increasing demand for meat, vegetables, beverages and everything you can imagine, several major agricultural companies have to greatly increase the output and speed up the finished products such as chicken, duck and beef. Note that the chicken, duck and beef here are no longer animals, but a product. But because the food of these animals is different, for example, cows eat grass, chickens eat insects, and ducks eat more water. However, food companies uniformly feed these products with corn, which makes the Christ of animals not Adaptation, for example, cattle can produce certain diseases, in fact, it will kill 80% of the virus on its own just by letting you re-graze, but. . . . . no way. In the case of corn as the main food, the speed of chickens from chicks to adult chickens is greatly accelerated, but the internal organs such as the heart cannot keep up with this crazy growth rate, so the chickens have difficulty even walking, and basically cannot walk in the film. If you take more than 5 steps, you will fall. So one might ask why use corn instead of soybeans, rice or other feeds as staples for these products? Another question is where does so much corn come from, don't farmers plant other crops? In fact, the answers to these two questions are the same, that is, these big companies have influenced US policies. The government encourages farmers to plant a large amount of corn and gives great subsidies, so that corn planting can get more economic returns, and His slogan is environmental protection, on the grounds that the government needs to use corn research as a new fuel, so that it can emit less carbon dioxide, which is on the moral high ground, and such a policy has led to the price of corn in the United States is very cheap, basically Which country it is exported to, the local corn collapses immediately, Argentina is a lesson in the past, and our great motherland may be the next few victims, just think of our fiasco in the soybean war in 2003 (many of these theories are Lang Xianping's conclusion), and once corn is planted, companies led by Monsanto will offer you their seeds, which are not only fast-growing, but also cheaper and insect-resistant. When you discover these conspiracies, if you refuse to use their seeds, you will find that there are new bugs and viruses, and the fertilizers or pesticides to treat these pests are still produced by Monsanto, so they will be severely punished by them. If you still refuse to use their products, they will sue you in court, because they are just looking for it and want to add a crime. Why worry about it? They use their huge economic advantages to make ordinary individual farmers go bankrupt just by going to court, so these big companies have thought about all the possibilities, they are absolutely
Filming and other documentaries still use similar techniques, find some victims, listen to their complaints against big companies, and then conduct in-depth internal investigations. At this time, many of the images were filmed, so the picture quality and blockbuster nature are natural. Can't compare. This movie made it easy for me to connect with Cove. The two movies are very similar in many aspects. The difference is that the influence of Dolphin Bay seems to be greater, and this year, it is favored by the golden man. I don’t know why people care less about the safety of their own food than they care about dolphins. Perhaps the most important thing is that the red Dolphin Bay has a stronger visual impact on people, and people regard dolphins as their friends or even It is viewed by relatives. In addition, dolphins have saved human lives many times, which has also increased such sympathy. The strong wording of "relevant departments" and the interference of local people make people hate this kind of behavior. Relatively speaking, the relevant departments in the food company hardly show up, and they always prevaricate with the phrase “decline to be interviewed”. This kind of language is obviously the safest. I really understand the language that “relevant departments” should learn.
I think there should be more such documentary films, so that our earth may not get worse.
I hope that we can see more reflections on our own national issues. Only a nation that has the courage to reflect can make progress. I hope that Master Zhang Yimou will not focus on "blockbusters" like Three Guns, okay? I hope Master Chen Kaige doesn't take pictures of Wuji to torture us, okay? There are too many issues that you can pay attention to. For example, is the current drought in Southwest China a natural disaster or a man-made disaster, for example, the mistakes we made in the land reform in Tibet in 1957 and the summary of the results, I think such a film is made, With your level and the resources you can find, you won't let this kind of movie go unnoticed. Even if the box office doesn't exceed Avatar, if you take it out to the competition, it really doesn't matter what award you get. I don't think the food company and the The shooting skills of Dolphin Bay are so brilliant, I believe you are completely competent. The names of directors of our literary or documentary and "non-mainstream" films are always Jia Zhangke, Wang Quan'an, and Ning Hao. . . . . . Generation, I think you masters can really do better, don't keep entangled in 3D or IMAX, okay? Focus on the story itself, what you choose to do now can really be useful to the country!
