This movie really makes me think a lot.
If you hadn't been in Europe, you probably wouldn't have thought this way. Want to know history, to know the truth. Of course, I also thought of the national conditions of our country.
PPS has commented that the situation in the movie is very similar to China today. Really? I know it's bad right now, but I don't believe it can be exaggerated. If it's true, that's really sad, and the saddest thing is being a native of your own country and not knowing what's going on in your own country.
When taking a language test, you will definitely be asked why you chose the UK. The standard answer is that our country is not good enough, and the UK is good everywhere, so I want to come and study. The same is true when doing projects, always take the British example as a positive example, and the Chinese example as a negative example. This is not bad, it may be a fact, but most of these conclusions are taken for granted, one-sided, and without evidence. Sometimes I feel embarrassed to hear my compatriots describe our motherland to British teachers. Is it because we do n’t
know our country well enough? Or are we too lazy to think?
It's good to think that you really know how bad your country is.
I always feel that our generation is too self-righteous, too clamorous, and too ignorant. There are naturally mistakes in the way of education, but when you are in your 20s, it is time to try to find problems from yourself. As Han Han said, when contemporary China is open to such an extent, those who should see the essence will naturally see it, and those who cannot see it will never see it.
However, when I say this, I also laugh at a hundred paces. Why am I not self-righteous, not clamoring, not ignorant?
Why does it seem to be off topic when I write it...
In short, my understanding is that communism is higher than capitalism. But the pace of historical progress cannot be jumped. They have never owned it, so how can you give it up? It's all pseudo-abandonment and pseudo-progress.
We all have a wall in our hearts. The foundation of the wall was built with the help of the Eastern and Western governments, but the body of the wall was built by ourselves.
I hope that one day, we can all tear down that wall in our hearts and live a sober and independent life. Only in this way can we find our own path, and our motherland can truly become stronger.
