I watched this movie a month ago, and I suddenly thought of something yesterday.
Do you understand how much that bike is to Xiaojian and Xiaogui?
If the conditions are good, friends who think it is not just a bicycle can imagine a situation where
they have just mortgaged their house for 20 years, and they still owe their parents from the first installment to the end, but they mortgaged their business because of their business. Lie, this house will be forcibly auctioned off.
Or another situation: the company car was stolen when he was driving by himself. In fact, it was the same feeling

. Xiaogui is a young man who is struggling in the countryside. People tell him that the city and the country are very different. He doesn't understand. What is different, why can't it be the same, he urgently needs the recognition of the city. Xiaogui's bicycle is the income of his active labor, and it has only been used for a month. He believes that it is impossible for people in the city to do it. This bicycle also represents his work. A good job is the biggest recognition the city has given him, and the bicycle also represents the identity of Xiaogui. When the bicycle is lost, it means that he will lose his job, which means that he will be deprived of all the efforts he has made in the city. ruined his future hope. And all these feelings and strengths are all pinned on this bicycle, so how powerful will he be holding the bicycle? That is the sum of the forces of the past, present and future together, and that is hysterical persistence.

A bicycle is a pass for Xiao Jian, a student in middle school. With this pass, you can raise your head in front of the girl you like, go out and out of the streets with your buddies, and go out to the scene and play fancy together. Isn't it necessary to say conditions between brothers? Yes, there is no need to talk about conditions between buddies. To be able to become buddies with others, you need an identity. So even if you want to steal the family's money, you have to buy the car.

The two of them just want to fight for this bike
because that bike is not just a bike, it's all
a countryman and a city person in their lives, because of how far apart they are, they
finally shook hands, Because they are the closest
people, the gap between the country and the city seems smaller than the gap between the poor and the rich

After talking about this movie, I thought of a follow-up question
Why, why does our society associate material things with our identities so closely! ?
Why did you need a bicycle watch and sewing machine to get married in the 70s?
Why did you have to have a TV set, washing machine and refrigerator in the 1980s to get married?
Why do you need a house and a car to get married now?
The mainstream values ​​of the whole society regard material things as so important, so the younger generation will grow up distorted under such pressure, just like the distorted bicycle at the end, it is useless.
