When watching this movie, when I see the sales status of each salesman, I feel very familiar. As seen in a large legal MLM company, worthless land is sold in various deceptive ways, some pretend to have many customers, some are interested in chatting with customers, not Stop brainwashing customers and pretend to be a close sister. Some even want to steal.
The fuse was a death order from the president sent by a company. After insulting the salesmen with ugly words, they stimulated their desire to make money, and then announced that the first place was Cadillac, and the last two would be eliminated. Looking at the essence of this matter, it is actually still people’s desires at play, their desire for money and material things, and they obviously hate their current job so much, why not do something else, is it so important to have a car and a watch? Making money just for these things? To be able to say something nasty and disrespectful like an asshole? Unscrupulous or even cheating customers in order to be the number one salesperson? It has to be said that these people are not as good as dogs. The desire for profit is getting darker, and the value of being a human has been lost, and he has become a material slave. By the way, some people feel that Levine is forced to take risks for his daughter, I just want to say bullshit. Levine has also been a top seller for eight months, which means he has made a lot of money, but where did the money go, the movie didn't explain it, but it was enough to show that his daughter was just an excuse, even if he didn't get sick, he still did it for money will do so.
Then I remembered a passage from the Tao Te Ching: If you don't honor the virtuous, the people will not fight; if you don't value the rare goods, the people will not be stolen; if you don't see what you want, the people will not be disturbed.
This passage speaks of inaction. In today's society, the impetuous atmosphere, the chaos of people's hearts, and the tense social rhythm are accompanied by disease-ridden, mentally impoverished, fast food culture, and entertainment first... Obviously it is a peaceful era, but how many young talents are because of the intensity of work. I lost my life in vain, and I managed to get above the middle class. , the lack of trust, the loss of morality, all people have to hurt each other.
Finally, I want to encourage myself with a line from a classic Korean movie, "We fought all the way, not to change the world, but to not be changed by the world." Even if you die of poverty and starvation, you will never go that way again. Please keep working towards your current goal.
