In fact, I saw this movie a long time ago. At the time, I thought it was pretty good. The details were very particular, and there was no unscientific bloody plot, but I didn't leave a deep impression. I thought it was just the American version of SARS.
However, at the moment when the new crown is raging, rewatching this movie feels like a prophecy of God! Almost all the key points are involved, and it can be said that it is a war game. If officials in Wuhan, Hubei have seen this movie, the situation should be much better now, right?
The chain of infection of bats, pigs, and people, from chefs to female executives, and from casinos to Japanese, Ukrainian girls and waiters, and the rapid spread of coronavirus with flights in the era of globalization, to lovers and their children in Chicago, The child passed it on to other children at school….
In the movie, when the CDC intervened, it was actually quite early, with only 80 or so cases, but the state government considered it to be Thanksgiving, the traditional shopping season, don't cause panic, it's not completely sure, etc., so it didn't take the first action. Emergency measures, does it sound familiar in the moment of the new crown? The result was out of control.
When the state government finally decided to close the city, the news inevitably leaked, and the best way is: never tell anyone. Then there are bound to be brain-damaged people who will post it on the Internet: I knew in advance that I had escaped, haha! The results pitted the director of the disease agency.
Hospital overcrowding, material panic buying, makeshift hospitals, nurses on strike, neighboring countries reluctant to sell relief supplies, all of which were predicted in this movie. When I watched it before, I thought it was quite real, but it seemed to be too loose. Wrong, but now, I feel that this is by no means a script written by an ordinary screenwriter. It is simply a coronavirus-infected war game report, presented in a more popular way. I think the rigor of the script is what attracts so many big-name stars to join, right?
The most amazing thing is that the movie even predicts the combination of media and capital to hype the country and make money, and the drug is forsythia, one of the three main components of Shuanghuanglian! Of course, the hype method in the movie is still a bit clumsy, and I have left a handle on myself. Unlike the marketing of Shuanghuanglian this time, it is completely seamless, and no one can grasp the handle at all. I am right. The in vitro experiment has a suppressive effect. , it does not mean that it is useful to eat, it is a matter of everyone's own understanding.
Although the plague is terrifying, what is even more terrifying is the collapse of social order, beating, smashing and looting, burglary, shooting and killing, lack of food, piles of garbage, absence of law enforcement officers, etc. The indirect death may be more than the direct death of the disease. . At this time, it seems that China's system has an advantage. At least everyone has confidence in the government's control ability.
If the virus is out of control, it will be a long and painful process when it is contained by a vaccine. It will take more than a year, and more than 26 million people have died in the United States. Therefore, early detection and early isolation are the oldest but also the most useful methods. Although Wuhan's response was a little slow, it was finally controlled within Hubei. In this regard, the Chinese nation with a long history of suffering is far better than the Americans, because this is the wisdom of survival inscribed in our blood, collectivism, organization, obedience, endurance, dedication, although It may seem out of place at times, but it is the only basis on which we are the only ancient civilization that continues to this day.
Only when faced with disasters can we see the quality of a nation. We have experienced SARS, and we have experienced countless disasters in history. Therefore, we are cautious but fearless, keep our distance from each other but remain close to each other, and maintain a good relationship when the virus is raging Social order is usually submissive, but when it comes to responsibilities, it does not care about itself.
Situ Simin, the actual form depends on it.
