Preface
A lightning bolt illuminates the life of Qingshuai's family. The family recognition incident made them famous overnight and entered thousands of households. It could have been consummated, but it ended in applause. When netizens ask the truth, will this altar collapse?
Fame: Momentary memories of television
The broadcast of "Waiting for Me" made me understand the name Qingshuai. After 41 years of separation, the mother and son are finally reunited. The tears in front of the camera melted the hearts of countless people. This scene became the most moving moment of the year.
The general storyline of the TV series, staged in real life. Whether it's a coincidence, it's providence. This undoubtedly brought a turning point for Xie Qingshuai's family. Recognizing relatives has brought ordinary people into the public's field of vision.
The light that shines into life becomes shining. In fact, for Xie Qingshuai, this sudden attention doubled the pressure. Life has been quiet for a long time, and it doesn't feel good to have everything disrupted.
But the camera brought opportunities, and he chose to follow his destiny and continue to work hard with his family. After all, it's too precious for their opportunity. Perhaps, some people are destined to question it, but more people will empathize.
As long as they stabilize themselves, this stage may be a gift from God. And for the general public, this surprise made them re-examine their lives. It turns out that there will be ups and downs in ordinary life, and the power of the butterfly effect of fate is so huge.
Life is always unexpected. If I were to encounter such a drastic change, how would I deal with it? This is also a point of reflection. Strangers who originally had nothing to do with themselves, but this story made them feel connected.
The power of fate's inspiration is too strong for anyone to stay out of it.
Out of the circle: a new starting point for the live broadcast room
Live broadcast this road, Xie Qingshuai is not the first time to go. It's just that this time it's different, he has heat and traffic. The family's newly established e-commerce company officially started. The registered capital is 3 million yuan, and Xie Qingshuai's sister-in-law contributed 2.85 million yuan.
As you can see, this is a premeditated business act. Some people are happy to see it, but more people are puzzled. Doubts abound: "Is it being used to make money by commercializing it so quickly?"
For the doubters, the development of events is beyond their acceptance. I was expecting a moment of reunion, but it turned out that the direction of development was money and profit. This is contrary to the ideal script in people's minds.
Too subtle feelings can easily be broken by reality. Live streaming is taking advantage of the popularity of the Internet to make money, which is normal in today's Internet era. But in this humanistic drama that witnesses miracles, the intervention of money makes the story unfulfilling.
Everything looks so deliberately marketing. But do we really understand their choice? For Xie Qingshuai's family, who have been living in poverty, the arrival of this opportunity is like a golden nest falling from the sky.
In the face of the pressures and changes in life, they need enough material support. Choosing to start an e-commerce business may be the only livelihood they are familiar with. The priority is to consolidate the status quo, not to look at the high and the low.
We should not hold an ordinary family to our own standards, who are trying to survive every step of the way, which in itself requires courage. I only hope that the path they choose in the future can also be understood by this era.
Truth: The Taste of Benefits
The hot operation of the live broadcast room quickly burned the reputation of understanding Qingshuai. The marketing account began to expose and solve various problems in the process of bringing goods. The prices are inflated, there are many routines, the script is clumsy, and the disrespect for fans is also infuriating.
This is the legendary cutting of leeks? The ideal is very plump, and the reality is very skinny. Xie Qingshuai may not have calculated intentionally, but the smell of interests has made him lose his innocence. The moral test of interests, Xie Qingshuai failed to pass the test.
It is indeed disappointing to be defined as the side that cuts leeks. We may not expect high moral standards from public figures, but the minimum bottom line should not be crossed. The cause of the incident is touching enough in itself, but it is ultimately vulnerable.
So the question is, who is responsible for this? Xie Qingshuai is just an ordinary person who is used by the Internet celebrity system, and he does not hesitate to cooperate with the system in order to monetize. However, the rules of the system for using resources and flows to reap commercial benefits have not changed.
In the final analysis, this incident reflects the grim situation of the current Internet environment. Without traffic it's hard to be commercially viable, and positive content can easily be reduced to a commodity.
We should not ask Xie Qingshuai to have too high business ethics, but the Internet environment needs to have a basic constraint mechanism. Otherwise, public content can be easily exploited, and a crisis of confidence is everywhere. That's the crux of the matter.
Truth or falsehood: the veil of public welfare
Alms also have a clear real price, and donations are of course even more so. Stimulated by interests, Xie Qingshuai's public welfare donations were also questioned. Local media denied the previous $500,000 donation. The authenticity of those credentials is breathtaking.
Why do we care so much about the behavior of an ordinary person? Because the event itself is extraordinary. It originally represented providence and beauty, but it lost its divinity under the deviation of commerce. That's where the disappointment goes.
Public welfare itself contains moral judgment, which is the most basic and final requirement of the public for celebrities. It's hard to imagine that even public welfare could be a tool for building empty shelves. If credibility is lost, the impact on the public will be very bad.
This also fully exposes the phenomenon of the hollowing out of celebrity philanthropy. Xie Qingshuai is only the tip of the iceberg of this problem. The development of the entire philanthropic sector urgently needs to establish a system, otherwise it will be difficult for any positive force to gain a foothold.
Otherwise, public welfare will be completely reduced to a tool for celebrity monetization and behavior laundering, and there have been too many such cases. We sincerely hope that the general public will remain cautious, and that celebrities will take the lead in fulfilling their social responsibilities.
Only with interlocking values can the spring of public welfare come.
epilogue
Eventually, a crack appeared in the once glorious altar. Xie Qingshuai's second live broadcast room was blocked again. So many people who pay attention to it suddenly lose touch and feel cut off from the world. We don't know how this story will end up.
Maybe time will dilute everything, maybe the scars will last forever. In any case, this experience will be a turning point in Xie Qingshuai's life. It is also a tug of war between the dreams of ordinary people and reality.
When the spotlight illuminates an ordinary person, can he still retain his original innocence? This may be a question that everyone who has started from nothing has to think about. Although the outcome is not yet clear, we still look forward to drawing positive elements from this event.
It shows that ordinary life can suddenly be favored by fate. That in itself is something to be thankful for. We should cherish family affection even more, because separation is too long. And, even if you hit rock bottom, the light of hope may be just around the corner.
There is no hopelessness in life, as long as you don't give up. I believe that Xie Qingshuai's family will also usher in new opportunities, and this series of events is just an episode on the road of his life.
And for the public, this incident reminds us not to be too gullible about the golden cloak behind the public image of celebrities. We need to focus on the events themselves and capture the human light in them. That's what it's all about.
