This is a long-standing medical Japanese drama, the author is only watching this year, but also quite a classic critical realism masterpiece, Douban score of 9.6.
Many friends have probably seen it, do you appreciate Caiqian more, or do you see it?
First of all, as an audience, under the guise of God's perspective, you can peek into a more panoramic story picture, if you only judge the characters in the play with hindsight and external identity, this is of course unfair to the characters, just take note of your feelings, share and communicate with your friends.
The problem of value judgment can be explored, but it is not possible to force people to hold similar or convergent concepts, which may be related to everyone's age experience, growth experience, cultural and educational background, life experience, and influence on all aspects.
The choice of path and the pass encountered on the way may be buried with a lot of homework/tests and gifts, just like the game of upgrading and fighting monsters, the experience points and comprehensive strength will increase a little after completing the level, and if you are not careful, you may be eaten by monsters, or you will become a monster yourself.
When watching the play, I also think of a few specific questions or inspirations:
01 Responses to relationship conditions
When there was a problem with the relationship between Cai Qian and his supervisor Professor Dong, how did they, colleagues, and close friends around them look at and cope with it.
The initial small contradictions and the flames of resentment between the two sides were not resolved/failed to be resolved, but became a fuse that led to greater contradictions and conflicts, and the two fought from a father and son to an almost hostile relationship.
When/how is the trust between people broken, and how is it discovered/repaired/re-established early?
Tips:
The world is like a snowy mountain, and what is given will eventually return to itself.
02 The creator sets up a lot of contrasting character combinations to show the choices and mentality changes made by the characters with individual differences and different values, which constitute the interpretation of the characters, and what kind of person ta is, in fact, it is narrated by the characters themselves.
Tips：
If we can be grateful for what we have received, and we can also be grateful for what we have not received (thanks for not getting/thanking for the understanding that we have lost), this may be a very high state of cultivation, which is not easy to achieve.
But is it possible that, even on a realistic level, this is sometimes the right strategy?
People who can stick to long-termism are wise.
Because being able to be the person you want to be is a very valuable thing (even one of the most valuable things), and it is worth the effort and investment.
The construction of the environment and the organizational culture, if people are encouraged to do the right thing, forming a positive feedback loop mechanism, are also beneficial to all individuals.
03 About honesty
Some people may think that it is okay to lie occasionally out of good intentions or harmless words, and it is more or less inevitable that everyone will say something against their hearts or dishonest. In reality, this may be the case, and when the water is clear, there are no fish.
But let us also remember, at least with our hearts, that dishonesty or lies in some key matters come at a cost—perhaps not only the need to use more lies to round things up, the consequences of hurting others, and the uneasiness of violating one's heart/conscience, but it will be difficult to trust others and trust those around one another in the future.
Using your own dishonesty to turn yourself into a person who no longer/cannot trust the outside world is actually self-harm.
Knowing mistakes can be corrected, and good deeds can be great.
It is not too late to make up for the dead sheep.
04 Personal observations and reflections on Caiqian and Rimi
Cai Qian is actually a tragic figure, his nature was originally kind, but also hard-working, want to get ahead, but he went astray, his body was sick, and he had missed the best time for treatment when he was ill, as a first-class surgeon and an expert specializing in cancer, he could not treat himself, and he was lacking in skills.
For the mother of caiqian, as long as the only son is healthy and happy, don't be too tired, it is very satisfied, but caiqian is bent on climbing up, thinking that he will have to fly yellow and tengda before he can return to his mother, and he has not seen each other for ten years.
People who truly love you don't increase or decrease their love for you because of what you did, what you got, what you became, such as the mother who always cherished her son.
For the so-called realistic success - to become a professor before and after, to command, to flashy fame and fortune, to ascend to a higher position, to have power, to do things conveniently (among which there are medical ideals before the wealth), not hesitate to sell personal dignity, conclude a marriage of pure utilitarian considerations, turn against the teacher, fight deeper and deeper, lose one's heart, How can This be a really stable and happy Fortune (worth asking Caiqian himself), and in the end he has only become a tool man/pawn in the wave speed bureaucracy, which can be replaced at any time in the eyes of people such as Pelican or Stern.
On the surface, Caiqian especially knows what he wants and how to fight for it, but what he really desires to need/really lack is actually overwhelmed, does he really know himself?
So he sometimes exudes that lonely, tired, lonely, unwilling look, tired and unaware or unable to extricate himself.
There is a sentence in Su Shi's poem that this peace of mind is my hometown.
In the play, Dr. Satomi, who is in contrast to Caizen, is a person with a peace of mind. Satomi has a firm ideal, but also can withstand loneliness, hope to go slowly step by step, with a correct and down-to-earth mentality to do research and sincerely treat patients concerned about their suffering, his time and energy are mainly focused on scientific research work and patients, which is also his real love of the cause.
Being able to work with full devotion and concentration is very fulfilling and comfortable for Rimi, and it is invisibly a kind of physical and mental nourishment.
For the patients received and helped by Satomi, it is a very fortunate thing to meet Dr. Satomi, who is always able to put himself in the shoes of patients and cares for patients, with strong professional ability and responsibility.
It can also be said that it involves instrumental rationality and value rationality, and the tragedy before privately thinking of money is that he unconsciously lets the means/process overwhelm the end (or feeds and magnifies the greed and egoic and cold parts, so that he loses his heart), in the process of pursuing ideals, he pursues the maximization of personal benefits in everything, and as a result, he himself is also shaped and alienated by the environment and his own actions in the process of realizing ambition, and he does not wake up until life is close to death.
According to the characters in the play, if you want to be a professor in Hanoi, Caiqian, and Satomi, you need to have strength, talent, and long-term commitment as the basis, and they are actually people who work hard.
Moreover, people such as Ukai and Stern are preoccupied with politics, and Professor Higashi's true colors are old-school scholars, and they all have their own value judgments.
The lamentable experience of Cai Qian and so on also made me think, if he can find enough understanding and positive spiritual strength around him as support or sufficient love nourishment, such as such an environment, culture or some specific real and trustworthy people, then even if he goes to darkness or is confused, he will not fall deeper and deeper in it, until he falls in the darkness.
05 Medical staff are engaged in a career that is related to the life and death of patients (health, life is entrusted), and the work is stressful, busy and tired, and full of challenges.
Thank you to all the medical workers and scientific researchers who treat and save people, it is very hard, and please take more care of your health and take care of your health.
06 About the symbol of the White Tower
Personally, the White Tower is a bit like the Tower of Babel, but perhaps it can also be imagined as a monument representing the angels in white, the peak of medicine and the lofty ideal of creating well-being for mankind, as well as a metaphor for the highland of the soul, the sea of fire/hot summer in the reincarnation as a cool resort.
May the flood relief in Henan be smooth, and the compatriots have no danger and no harm,
May there be peace in the world, and that everyone will be in good health and at peace of mind
