For this film, I just want to tell a story, tell a person.
The second year of high school is very tight and stressful. Our class's grades are in the lower reaches, no one knows what's going on, the teachers are fine, the students are fine. But the more attentive will see that the class lacks a collective will. Speaking of this, it should be related to the squad leader going abroad. Suddenly, a leader who is self-disciplined and able to discipline people is missing, and the class becomes a mess.
But the head teacher and English teacher resolutely assumed the responsibility of spiritual leader. Speaking of Mr. Zhang's personality, he is one of the few people I've ever met who can be called simple, and one of the few people I've ever met who can love life unconditionally. This kind of character, I can only use bright generalize. Mr. Wang Kailing advocates being a bright-minded person. Brightness here has many meanings. Teacher Zhang's experience is a bit like the American Dream. He has taught for more than ten years, and his face is full of vicissitudes from the young man who just graduated to the present.
The memories related to this movie were frozen after a certain exam. He didn't say the wrong question, but took us to watch a movie together. At that time, I watched the movie without even hearing the name. Looking back now, I am more impressed. There is a scene of a diving competition, a scene of a broken leg on a boat, and a scene of finally walking into the court with firm steps, and the determination on the protagonist's face is unforgettable. After watching it, the teacher said that he liked the movie very much. He said that I don't remember how many times he watched it. I only remember him saying that every time he lost and despaired, he would revisit it and cry again. He shared his experience when he first started working, saying that when he graduated that year, he was assigned to teach English in a township primary and secondary school. There were few students, the school was very simple, and the dormitory conditions were poor. One night, I woke up in the middle of the night, and I didn't know what cold sticky thing fell on my face from the roof. After I woke up, I didn't sleep all night. I can't remember whether he shed any tears or not, but since then, he has decided to climb up step by step, for more than ten years, insisting and persevering, clenching his teeth again and again.
I can't imagine such a short and difficult journey. But he just stood in front of us so ordinary, with a little excitement in his voice. He likes this movie, maybe because the protagonist is so similar to him. Maybe you will laugh at the humbleness of this struggle, but how many people live a better life than this. In this life, people live nothing but the word "no regrets", and nothing else is great or humble.
Some people are against chicken soup, and so am I. Motivational movies like this are often labeled as chicken soup. But this movie is no longer a bowl of chicken soup for me. I will take it as a life experience, and the protagonist is my sophomore teacher.
The second and third grades of high school were in a hurry. Teacher Zhang had to go back to the original school because of family affairs. I didn't even have time to say goodbye or thank you.
It is estimated that not many people will watch such an old movie again. I don’t know why I suddenly want to write these paragraphs. I will treat it as a time capsule. However, if one day, teacher, you see this, I want to tell you, I still remember the inspiration and courage you brought me in those years.
On the vast sea, Santiago held the oars and dragged a remnant of a marlin fish, with the blood-colored and never-setting sun behind him.
