A short video of "the old man complaining about the young man hanging a curtain under the sleeper".
It sparked a heated discussion among netizens
Related topics frequently appear on the hot search topic list
For the matter of "sharing the lower bunk".
Most people online have voiced their opposition
"It's love to let you sit, it's your duty not to let go"
"The lower bunk is the most expensive, and it costs more,
Why share?"
"Do not accept moral kidnapping"
Only a few netizens expressed their understanding
"'The old and the old',
If this happens to the elderly in my family
Hope someone can help too"
"Everyone understands each other when they go out,
Didn't you always come here like this before?"
The sleeping compartment is narrow and has a large number of people
Seats in the aisles are often insufficient
It takes a dozen or even dozens of hours to sit on the train
It is also inconvenient for the elderly to climb on the bunk
It's also understandable to set your sights on the bunk seats
And the young people bought the right to use the lower bunk at a higher price
In a noisy environment
Separate yourself in a private space of your own
There is no problem at all

So what is this "curtain separation" that separates it?
A bed curtain is actually two generations
Barriers to the perception of a "sense of boundary".
It can be seen from most of the comments in the comment section
With the development of the times
Young people are beginning to have a sense of boundaries and space
There is a stronger awareness
When I go home for the Chinese New Year, I don't want my relatives to inquire about the relationship
Guests don't want to go ungreeted when they visit
Just fiddle with your figurines and makeup
For strangers, it is more desirable
Maintain a reasonable social distancing
Not disturbing each other during the journey is a kind of tenderness
Sit in someone else's berth without saying hello
In their eyes, it is very impolite
Not to mention the act of asking others to share the bunk
And the old man in the video is walking by
People in the era of the lively green train
At that time, the train was probably the most humane means of transportation
"Beer, drinks, mineral water, peanuts, melon seeds, ham sausages"
The "clang" sound of a train passing through the railway
Chatting, playing cards, snoring, and more
Voices come and go
It's been a long road and nothing to do
Talk to the opposite shop about where your hometown is
What are you going to do on this trip
After a while, the family situation of both parties was clearly discussed
No one felt noisy or violated
I just feel accustomed to it
When you are tired of standing, sit on someone else's bunk
It's not such an incredible thing
People don't have that much awareness of space and privacy

But as I said earlier
Times are changing
People's social norms are also changing
The social concept has always been among young people
It's starting to be no longer relevant
There is also a gap in the concepts of the two sides
It is necessary to fill this conceptual gap
It depends on mutual understanding
During this period of controversy over the "train bunk" incident
Someone also posted a short video on the web
One young man said he had just brushed it
A video of a college student being complained about in the lower bunk curtain
I encountered a similar situation myself
But the other party greeted him with a smile and explained his intention and said that he could make up the difference
The young man who wanted to refuse heard that the opposite was an 83-year-old man
Immediately agreed to exchange his lower bunk with the other party's middle bunk
The comments below also agreed
It can be seen that young people are still cute and empathetic
It's not that young people have become apathetic
The old man is not arrogant and unreasonable
They can also understand and embrace the new ideas of young people
Both sides need to be just a more reasonable way to communicate
Understanding is based on the mutual
Show kindness to strangers
It's not something to be taken for granted
In recent years, various controversial issues have arisen on trains
The act of making loud phone calls on the high-speed rail without regard for others
A child who screams incessantly but is not stopped by an adult
Problems such as poor negotiation with others when swapping seats
The resulting contradictions are frequently searched
There are also continuous calls for silent cars, women's cars, and so on
For these new livelihood needs
The railway sector is also constantly improving
像此前高铁就增设了静音车厢
For passengers who wish to enjoy a quiet environment
Have a more comfortable travel experience
For the allocation of sleeper resources this time
The railway sector should also pay attention to the needs of the masses
In addition to prioritizing the arrangement of lower berths for the elderly
It is also necessary to provide more comfortable rest space for more passengers
"Hanging curtains on the lower bunk" incident, noisy people in the same car and other problems
Actually, it's not a big deal
What really escalates these little things
It's the lack of empathy for some people in public
Thus showing an attitude of taking things for granted
Since everyone has chosen the same train
Spend hours together
It's better to show more kindness and understanding to each other
A polite "sorry, thank you" phrase
A gesture of effort
It can become a beautiful scenery that warms people's hearts on the way
What do you think of these "little frictions" on the train?
Do you prefer a train where everyone chats or a train where everyone is quiet?
Let's talk about it in the message area
