Generally speaking, when rural education is "seen", the viewpoints of discussion will focus on two ends:

Education: How to convince poor families to give up their current income to invest in medium and long-term education to make them believe that their education investment will pay off exponentially

Education side: how to better "help" rural education to turn up instead of short-term sports-style charity, such as solving the problem of the quantity and quality of teachers, solving the nutritional problem of students, and solving the problem of backward teaching environment

Investment in basic education is an extremely effective means of enhancing human capital. Years of education (undergraduate and below) will significantly affect the average income of the group

But it's hard to do your homework with research results or statistics because then you have to assume that both parents are well educated to understand them

For them, the meaning of real life is more moving

For these students who can't get enough to eat and don't warm up and don't have fifty cents in their pockets and their families who may be in debt

What is the point of going to school? How much money is needed to achieve your goals? How much work does it take to get the money? How much time does it take? Being able to read and understand notice boards? Being able to write a missing person notice?

The process of bringing students back to students is actually a process of teaching in real life, and it is a process of proving the value of education that cannot be revived (the movie shows it, but it is not dogmatic or preaching)

In addition to the students who drop out of school, on the other hand, the problem faced by rural schools is what teachers are treated poorly and the number of schools is broken.

How did a little girl who graduated from primary school become a rural substitute teacher? for 50 bucks

But in fact, there is still a very simple value in it.

The study committee felt distressed by the white chalk that was smashed by the stinky child and said that it was Teacher Gao's most cherished and reluctant episode. After this episode came out, it was obvious that Teacher Wei had ownership of this teacher's identity.

Because she really cares about Teacher Gao when she sees that there are children around her (the movie shows it, but it is not sensational or pretentious)

A little teacher who doesn't have much ability and can't even control the monkeys, still has her determination and bravery, not to mention the hard work of insisting on taking the child back, I don't think I can do it. Sometimes it's just you Seems to know more but can't implement even a simple truth

In the end, the child found the host on the way back home in the TV station car and asked where the city was good.

The skin monkey said to eat for free

Then said the most memorable thing is to beg

These three or two dialogues are really well designed.

Taking advantage but hurting self-esteem

    6/10. The key clues of the narrative are money and chalk as representatives of the teaching conditions. From teacher Gao counting chalk, students slapping chalk to donating chalk, the blue pigment chalk written by Zhang Huike on the blackboard at the end. The blue color is the children’s feelings towards Wei Min. Praise, when Teacher Gao took the car home early in the morning and Wei Minzhi failed to chase his salary, Dawn’s cyan cool tone indicated the lack of material. If the promise of money cannot be fulfilled, the remaining money from the bricks can be bought for one person. Coke here is a poor student. Material luxury. Sound and painting artistic conception: a broken wall at the village chief’s house (hard work) and a touch of red (vigorous) paying attention to the national flag. The class moved bricks and stepped on the majestic yellow ground. Wei Minzhi walked to the city’s cave, and there was a lot of time behind him. The darkness of the long road presents the light in front of us, expressing a determination that is indispensable. Wei Minzhi went to a banquet to beg with the dark night as the background. The dark night reflects the inner confusion and gives the courage to let go of dignity. The noise of the train that broadcasts failed to find people creates a sense of psychological oppression. The green field in the background of the program when the TV station is a guest indicates the hope of finding someone. The host looked forward to Wei Minzhi's answer to the good in the city, but Wei Minzhi was most impressed by begging.

    Zhang Yimou’s films in his early years had the power to penetrate people’s hearts for a moment. The lens language was very simple and natural, and the principles were explained in a simple way. Some people say that Zhang Yimou pleased the West by taking pictures of China’s backwardness. I don’t think so. A director with a conscience should do these tasks. Nowadays, Chinese movies are often loved by men and women in cities, but I have never seen a real masterpiece of urban civilization. In the 1990s, Zhang Yimou’s films focused on the confrontation between rural and urban civilizations were not deliberate and unavoidable. It should be said that Zhang Yimou has done what he has done and should be evaluated objectively!
