"Understand Disney, Understand Yourself" Part 8 Original Anchor Lao Sha
⇓ Listen to audio, more relaxed ⇓
#听懂迪士尼, understand yourself # Dear students, move the small bench, today we talk about the Disney movie "Racing Story".
Before we start our show today, I would like to ask you a question: How many car toys have you dismantled?
Some classmates said that they had never dismantled a car toy. Then you are really bragging, even if you have not dismantled it yourself, at least your car toys have hit all kinds of obstacles.
Old Sand I saw few cars when I was a child, so when we were young, the trolley toys we were young were often made of wood, loaded with a variety of heavy objects, slid down from various slopes, cried after hitting bits and pieces, and after repairing, there was no face and no skin, and continued to crash.
I don't know where such a big addiction comes from, we humans have a natural liking for wheels. I guess our ancestors loved to play with cars, and gave themselves a name called "Xuanyuan Clan", which translates into modern Chinese and estimates that it is "Playing With Cars".
In fact, adults also love to play with cars, than fast games have racing,
Than the concept car race of technology,
Better than the good looking one is the car styling contest.
For a while, I saw the "steering wheel competition", that is, a group of people specifically compared to see who designed the steering wheel with a peculiar shape, to see who collected the steering wheel the age is more ancient...
Some students may wonder: As for? Can you play with a car so engaged?
In fact, the car is the key invention of our human progress, and it easily breaks the space of activity that we are familiar with. Car lovers never really love cars, but love the excitement of constantly breaking through their own activity space. Before your dad bought the car, the activity space was from home to work; after your dad bought the car, he could go to the countryside to play, right?
Lightning McQueen is such an anthropomorphic modern racing car in the movie, but he is arrogant and delicate, has no one in sight, does not pay attention to the team, and does not speak in his mouth. In fact, in the first game in the movie, he was only one step away from losing.
However, yin and yang accidentally wandered into the town, encountered several pyrotechnic cars, helped him wear off the sharp thorns in his personality, and let him really understand what is the real road civilization.
Modesty, mutual help and self-discipline are the qualities that a good car should have, so at the end of the movie, McQueen did not sprint, but returned to the damaged old car, gently pushed to the finish, won the respect of everyone.
In Lao Sha's view, this movie is not only good, it is also particularly good, because this movie is simply the history of the development of American country music!
Let's start with this archaeological-grade "Route 66": Chuck Berry
Without the mountain village bruce, American road culture would have become black and white. This piece of music could not have been more appropriate for McQueen and Sally's date. This kind of play with banjo piano distribution makes many people in the 50s yearn for romantic love, when people want to get rid of the same, hope that freedom and love will always be tied together.
On the scenic Route 66, Elvis Presley or Chuck Berry on the radio is mixed with the roar of the engine, which is simply a stimulant for young people to cheer.
Again, this much earlier pop country "Behind The Clouds" from Lady Gaga came from Brad Paisley.
Does this authentic '80s country music make you feel like you want to dance? Whether you're a cowboy or a winery owner, whether you're an Ivy League college student or a country peddler, you have to let go of all restraints under this kind of music, take off your tie and take off your suit, and swing freely to the rhythm.
Driving through a small town and drinking Coke in a glass bottle, it's a great feeling to accompany this music.
Don't think American road culture is so old-fashioned, listen to this passage, from Sheryl Crow's "Real gone"
What is rock and roll, that is, the new ideas of young people have not yet found a way to achieve it, so let's shout it out for the time being. From Elvis Presley to the current Pear, pop musicians all over the world are shouting their voices with rock, and students have time to search for a music program called "Summer of the Band".
There will be a lot of musicians there to explain to you what it means to be crazy for music and love to die. With rock 'n' roll you can sing things that are difficult for other music to show. For example, if you pluck up the courage to say that you want to travel to space to Mars to study aliens, it is estimated that your father and your mother will say: Come to some practical, first take the top ten. It will extinguish your flame at once, but you still have a stomach to express it, so what to do? Sing Rock!
As can be seen from the movie "Cars", Disney artists are actually more willing to use our oriental ideas to describe their stories.
Lightning McQueen's ultimate victory, first of all, came from the modesty he learned in hot spring town, he paid tribute to his teacher, to the predecessors of the racing car, which is the standard oriental wisdom - etiquette.
The second reason McQueen won was that he began to believe in his friends, in the team, in the people closest to him, even if they were not the best, but they were people who really loved you and helped you. Faith is also the wisdom of our East.
The third reason for McQueen's victory is that he looks down on superficial wins and losses, and in the competition, everyone has the opportunity to complete their own path, even if they lose a little of their own interests, they try to achieve a win-win situation. This is still our Oriental wisdom, righteousness.
In fact, in the next two Racing Story movies, the story also deeply contains these flavors. In the roar of the engine, we are presented with the artistic dream of humanity behind the fierce competition, and some victories and losses are far beyond the trophies and medals. No matter how strange the environment is, no matter how complex the crowd is, as long as this heart of freedom is always adhering to the road spirit of trust and mutual help behind it, you will never lose your way.
Dear students, ask you a question, if it is your best friend, you study together with your children, and his test score is better than yours, will you congratulate him/her from the bottom of your heart? There must be a loss in your heart, but will this loss eventually become a stronger bond between the two of you?
Well, dear students, whether you are cycling or your parents are driving, I suggest that you leave your familiar city on the weekend, go to the countryside, and bring headphones to play a few pieces of country music. You will find that when you meet strangers, you can't help but wave your hands and show the most natural smile!
End today's show with a quote from the movie: People pass by here without knowing what they're missing.
