When I watch the new "The Count of Monte Cristo", I can't help but miss Gérard. Depardieu's performance.
Closer to home.
In the film, have you ever noticed one of the reasons for Dantès' bad luck?
betrayed by a friend.
In fact, in life, many people are betrayed by their friends. For example, some women often find out that their husband's lover is their best friend.
Because of closeness, without defense. Not on guard. A lot of your situation, such as secrets and weaknesses, is in the hands of friends.
And your enemy has no chance to stab you in the back, or get in trouble.
Friends want to put Dantès to death out of jealousy.
Jealousy is a human nature that is too ancient and too primitive. So far, there is still a strong vitality.
Both men and women are jealous.
People are used to comparing. Whether it is comparing economic conditions, appearance, spouse, education, seniority...
People's vanity is endless.
That's why Chinese people sum up the sentence: The wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it.
Jealousy is still a relatively light word. Another word is jealousy.
A gentleman is innocent, but he is guilty of guilt. Dantès was so hateful that he was appointed captain at a young age and had a beautiful fiancée.
Yet people need friends.
Even Dantès, who was later successfully framed by a friend, was in a cage.
I also need a friend: let him understand that there is hope even in desperation. You can also use seemingly inconspicuous tools to dig the seemingly unbreakable prison.
This pastor who came out of the hole taught Dantes too much. What taught him was not only knowledge and swordsmanship, but also logical reasoning and thinking.
The pastor made his life hopeless and hopeless. It also gave him nourishment in difficult times. The priest even gave him a chance to escape to freedom, and a huge fortune of unknown origin.
This is the power of friends.
Then, Dantès was among the pirates again, and gained a loyal friend Jacopo. Jacopo did all kinds of things for him, taking his wishes as his own, and even willing to give his life for him.
Friends are such contradictory things. Bad friends, get you out of trouble. Good friend, benefit your life.
However, many times, you will never know whether a person is your good friend or your bad friend without experiencing the polishing of the world.
Even a former friend may be a bad friend one day. And your opponent, maybe one day, will become your friend.
"The joys and sorrows of the world are unpredictable."
There is a very simple way to prevent problems before they happen. The Count of Monte Cristo told us that you try not to provoke jealousy in others. Sometimes jealousy is like a viper, deformed by desire. Your friend may one day be stabbed by you. Whether it is owned by you, or by his own unwillingness.
Therefore, Chinese people will pay attention to the middle way. The more outstanding people are, the more low-key they are.
A tree full of fruit is always easy to be hit with stones. There are a lot of mental illnesses in this world, they are persistent, and they will come to slander you no matter what, even if it is made out of nothing... You are fine, they all want to find something.
I am not a conspiracy theorist. However, good and bad things can happen.
We also often see that a professional in a certain field is scolded by some unprofessional people.
For example, a writer who is currently in progress is suspected of not writing the work himself.
Sometimes, scolding needs a reason. List some data, do some research. There are some people who don't need a reason to scold people at all.
If you are really fruitful, and there are people who hate you no matter what, then you must remember not to expose your possible weaknesses to anyone. Including "friends."
There is an old saying: "You can only talk about three points when you meet people, and don't give up your whole heart."
Reduce the chance of others hurting you.
After all, we are all flesh and blood, and it is easy to shed blood and tears. How can we be so strong.
