At 1 hour and 17 minutes into the movie, Davie, the protagonist, asked Harry from the Destiny Planning Bureau why they were so concerned about his relationship, and Harry replied that it was enough to have her. I just realized what this movie was trying to convey. "If you're with her, you don't have to fill the void, you don't need applause and votes, you don't dream of being in the White House one day. That's important, but it's not the only thing that matters."
I don't deny the influence of love on career. The so-called smugness in love is not completely unfounded. But can career and love really not coexist?
Many great people are lonely. It's not that they don't need love, they're actually scared. I am afraid that my investment will not be rewarded accordingly, I am afraid that one will go up and down, and I am afraid that my relationship will become a stumbling block on the road to success. After all, human energy is limited. Emotions are illusory things. They are not like house and car tickets. They can be felt in real life. Moreover, people can change. Once feelings change, they may end up with nothing but money and money. The opportunity cost is too great.
But even so, many people are still like the protagonists in the movie. They can ride the same bus for three years for the sake of a one-sided crush, and they can do everything for love. Because love is so beautiful.
Some people give up love for fame and fortune, some people give up fame and fortune for love. No one is right or wrong, everyone's choice is different.
The ending of the movie is so thought-provoking. The male lead asked if Hary was the chairman (God), Hary smiled and said that you have seen him, or that it was her. Everyone has seen it, and the chairman always appears to everyone in a different image, so people are rarely recognizable at the moment. I think what the movie wants to express is that every so-called key point of life that you think is the hand of God, but it is actually in your hands. He can be your boss, your colleague, a stranger you meet by chance, or anyone who affects you.
Davie: "Is this some kind of test?"
Hary: "It's a test in a way. It's a test for everyone, and it's a test for the members of the Destiny Bureau."
Everywhere in life is a test
