Don't ask Dong Xi: I hope that when you are confused, you firmly believe in your inner treasure.

On the weekend, Sister S went to the cinema alone to watch Don't Ask West Ask East. My tears are very low, and I burst into tears in some scenes. In this touch, I am somewhat awakened and thoughtful.

This film is an independent chapter of four stories, which are interrelated through a hundred years. It conveys a spirit, that is, "don't ask the west and the east, just ask freedom, only ask prosperity, only ask family, only ask the initial heart, only ask courage, and ask the west and the east."

"Just ask freedom, only ask prosperity, and don't ask anything."

1923, Beiping.

This is a snowy winter. On the result release day, Wu Linglan played by Chen Chusheng got full marks in Chinese and English, but failed in physics. He should be a good seed of liberal arts, and he insists on competing for science.

Mei Yiqi, then president of Tsinghua, asked him, "Why are you obsessed with science?" Wu Linglan replied: "Everyone thinks that excellent people study science."

Mei Yiqi asked again, "Then what are you studying for?" Wu Linglan said, "I just concentrate on my studies and don't want anything else."

However, if people just keep themselves busy without asking what they really want, then the so-called busyness is just a kind of numbness and sureness, and it loses its sense of reality.

Wu Linglan, who has always exposed her fragile heart, fell into heavy thinking. He hides in the university dormitory all day, rarely communicates with his classmates, and thinks that he thinks "shamefully" about the meaning of life, but finds nothing.

It was not until Tagore's visit to China, his impassioned speech and a row of the best and most confident people of that era that he realized that he was not ashamed of his own thoughts, and that was the only way in life.

Great men will endlessly explore the meaning of life. Only by exploring and pursuing your own truth can you grow.

At this point, Wu Linglan's youth bloomed, her long-closed mind gained freedom, enjoyed peace and devoted herself wholeheartedly to the further study of liberal arts.

His timely awakening made him a literature professor at National Southwest Associated University.

"Just ask courage, don't ask the West and the East."

1938, Kunming.

Wang Leehom plays Shen Guangyao, the only son of a rich family in Shen Shi. In order to pursue the power of knowledge, he went to a remote place to study alone. He is a student of National Southwest Associated University.

Three generations of the Shen family produced five generals, all of whose fathers were in poor health. Parents only hope that Shen Guangyao will not be carried away by fame and fortune, live the life he wants, get married and have children, and enjoy the happiness of being a parent.

Only now, this is not a peaceful place. North China is so big, but there is no room for a quiet desk, and the whole country is at stake.

Realizing that studying literature could not save the country, Shen Guangyao wanted to join the army and expel foreign enemies. It's just the tears of the father who is seriously ill at home, and Shen's mother is worried that "you haven't thought about how to live in this life, and even your life is gone." This painful confession of motherhood made Shen Guangyao swear not to be a soldier.

A plane bullet killed some people in The National SouthWest Associated University, blew up the school building and awakened Shen Guangyao's heart. After all, he went to the air force behind his parents' backs and chose to join the most cruel war.

After becoming an air force, he always collects food, then flies a plane and puts food into a hungry village. The children in this village call him Uncle Swing, who brings hope to this lifeless place.

Later, in the war, in order to save his companions, Shen Guangyao bravely carried a broken plane and died with the enemy.

In his short but great life, he adhered to his belief that there is no shortage of perfect people in this world, but sincerity, justice, fearlessness and heartfelt sympathy.

"Just ask the deep feelings, don't ask the west and the east."

1962, Beijing.

Huang Xiaoming plays Tsinghua's master of physics, and Zhang Ziyi plays Wang, a nurse in Chinese medicine, and Li Xiang, a western medicine player. They have been childhood friends since high school.

Three people made an appointment to see Xu Bochang, the head teacher of high school, but they happened to see Mr. Xu Bochang being chased by Liu Wenxiu Shufen, beating and cursing, not saving face for the teacher.

Wang He and Li, who were out of breath when they came back, wanted to copy their colleagues' handwriting and wrote a letter. Unexpectedly, this letter triggered a butterfly effect.

Wang was labeled as seducing a married man, jealous that her nurse deliberately fabricated facts to slander her. Li believes that for the hard-won sideline quota, he dare not admit to participating in this matter and dare not help Wang.

Finally, Wang was turned into a spy of the United States and Chiang Kai-shek, held a criticism meeting and was beaten by everyone.

After learning this news, I came back from the ninth research institute and just met the king covered in blood. He thought that the king was dead and dug her grave in the heavy rain, so he couldn't help himself.

Who knows that Wang suddenly woke up in the rain, and the two embraced in the rain, crying and laughing. Forged the king's tomb and took her back to the village where she grew up.

In the village, the disfigured king covered his face with a scarf. She was afraid to follow Chen Peng to the border for fear that she would hold Chen Peng back.

Chen Peng made a deep confession to her: "Don't be afraid, I gave you the bottom. I will fall with you, no matter how deep you fall, I will hold you up below. I'm not afraid of anything. I am afraid that you will fall and push me away, and don't want me to help you. "

For me, the king is the most precious flower in his life, and his deep affection for the king has never stopped.

Whether it's a brand-new seal in the past, or a woodcut flower that has hardly been sent, then a box of ginkgo leaves, a box of vanishing cream, a can of skin cream, a box of shell oil ... and the letter he promised to write to her, as well as his crazy thoughts about her.

"Just ask the initial heart, don't ask the West."

20 12, Beijing.

Zhang, played by, is the director of an advertising company. In order to win the commercial order of milk powder, he chose the quadruplets in the news event as the promotion plan. According to the proposal of the boss David, after the company lost a big customer, he was transferred to other companies and became a victim of internal struggle.

In order to help quadruplets, Zhang spent a lot of thought and money: paying for the treatment of two children in quadruplets; The place where the quadruplets used to live was noisy, so they specially found a new house for their families to live in; The quadruplets asked him to name them, and he carefully asked the name company for fortune telling. ......

But as a result, he found that the family members of the quadruplets kept calling, and he felt tired and put forward new requirements. The greed of human nature made him escape.

Robert, the leader of the former company, wants him to tell the fault of his boss David, so that David can be sent to other areas. He was at a loss, and he didn't agree or refuse.

He thinks that modern people seem to be mostly defensive and suspicious when they get along with each other. Sincerity is becoming less and less valuable, with more routines and more doubts.

Tomb-Sweeping Day's parents dragged him to the benefactor's grave that day, hoping that his son would follow his heart, pursue his own truth and never forget his own initiative.

Zhang, who figured it out, answered the phone call from the parents of quadruplets. It turned out that they just wanted to give him a brush made of fetal hair. He called Robert again, refused to expose the boss's handle, and spoke his mind for the first time, "because I am different from you."

He stopped suppressing himself and smiled. He only does what he wants to do and helps the people he wants to help. No longer against your heart.

In fact, this film, at first glance, thought it was a single fragment, but in fact they influenced each other across a hundred years.

From 1923, Mei Yiqi, the president of Tsinghua, enlightened Wu Linglan on "Why to study";

By 1938, Wu Linglan had become the professor's instruction to Shen Guangyao to "never forget sincerity";

Then Shen Guangyao flew for the children, bringing "the hope of life" to Chen Peng;

Then at 1962, Chen Peng awakened Li Xiang and made him understand that "the dead are gone, but the living are like this";

So Li wanted to sacrifice himself to save Zhang's parents. They instilled this "initial heart" in Zhang ... In the connection again and again, they completed following their hearts and choosing each other's inheritance.

Although the film's title "Mo Wen West East" is taken from a lyric in Tsinghua University's school song, "Li De makes sense, Mo Wen West East".

I didn't really understand it until I watched the whole movie. When people are alive, there are some things hidden inside. It is not a concrete thing, but refers to one's own thoughts and heart. Maybe it has something to do with love, affection, benevolence, and initial heart.

I think everyone's west and east are different but similar. Probably in the dead of night, when you turn off the lights and meditate, everyone hides their desires, what kind of person they want to be and what kind of life they want to live. If you want to, then take action to do it, fight for it, and create it. Whatever the outcome, at least you tried.

Sister s likes this movie because it exposes the evil of human nature and opens the light of human nature. Four short stories are inadvertently extended, and everyone is exploring their true hearts.

Just like the three thought-provoking questions at the beginning:

Do you still have the courage to come if you know the life you will face in advance?

If you already know the result, will you do it again? ?

If you already know that it will make you miserable, should you choose to give up? ?

I hope to see you here, sweep away my inner confusion, do what I want to do, ride the wind and waves, and forge ahead.
