Is there a big gap between the rich and the poor in today's flamboyant society? China is a very clear example. The rich can afford a building worth 100,000 million yuan per square meter, while the poor have to live in a container that costs a few yuan a day. So where does fairness come from?
I really admire the hero's daring to act, and the heroine finally worked with the hero to save the slums where different people die every day, and try their best to restore a little bit of fairness. . The heroine's father said: "You saved this generation and the next generation, but you may not be able to save all the poor people." Although I don't want to accept it, I think if the movie continues, the ending will be that there are still people in the slums one after another. die. . Grieving. . . So in reality, can we change this fact, or try to improve it? This is a question that government personnel should think about.
"How much time do we have left?" "One more day" "A lot of things can be done in one day"
This dialogue between the male and female protagonists is also quite inspiring to me, then if in the real world, time becomes currency, if you only have What would you most like to do in an hour or even the last ten seconds of the next day?
Probably the director also has the idea of ​​making the audience cherish every minute and every second, of course, more emphasis is placed on the huge gap between the rich and the poor, the society is very unfair, and the issue of fairness.
