"Qiannu Ghost 1" interprets a human ghost love affair carved into the heart and becomes a classic of a generation; "Qiannu Ghost 2" is funny and reflects everything in the world; but my personal favorite is this finale. In "Qiannu Ghost 3: Dao Dao", Ning Caichen became Ten Fang, Nie Xiaoqian became Xiao Zhuo, Yan Chixia has been renewed, everyone is carrying a bitter thing to live in this world, whether they are people or ghosts, in this part there is a more three-dimensional image.
What role should we play in dealing with love, money, and life? This article will analyze the theme ideas that the director wants to convey in this film from the dimensions of the three protagonists.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" >01 Xiao Zhuo: Grinding out the edges and corners of the comfort zone, intensive cultivation, not just to be an "ordinary female ghost"</h1>
<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" > comfort zone is used to expand, study zone is used to stay, panic zone is used to avoid. </h1>
The theme that the director gave to the first film was: love is greater than life and freedom. And this director tells an ordinary story that is close to that of secular men and women. Xiao Qian in the first part fights for love, and the love affair between people and ghosts makes people intoxicated; Xiao Zhuo in this part has become a more real and three-dimensional character, she incarnated as "Jane Eyre" who understood the truth of life from a small fence: she will not go against her grandmother for men, and there will always be hesitation between actions.
When the Ten Fangs suggested that Xiao Zhuo leave, Xiao Zhuo replied: I am used to it, I have suffered before, I would rather be like the present, one day after another, it is better than you, and I don't even know where to go tomorrow. I eat well here and dress well....
People lament that a generation of female ghosts have "degenerated", and ghosts have to hide in their comfort zone. But is Xiao Zhuo's choice wrong?
Modern social values encourage everyone to step out of their comfort zone, but the reality is that there is only a line between the comfort zone and the panic zone. Blindly jumping out of the comfort zone, most of them are jumping pits, many people take a big step to the panic zone, insist on returning to the comfort zone after a while, which greatly consumes perseverance and self-confidence. Stepping out of the comfort zone requires resources and abilities, and the accumulation of resources and abilities is never achieved overnight.
Xiao Zhuo used the comfort zone around his grandmother to ensure his basic life and personal safety, and at the same time, he used his grandmother's trust to constantly gain contact with Shifang and his master. It turns out that Xiao Zhuo's choice is correct, even if he is later discovered by his grandmother, Xiao Zhuo has become the role of living to the end.
Therefore, the best way to treat the comfort zone is to first cultivate in the comfort zone, expand the comfort zone, and eventually turn the comfort zone into a learning zone. But the biggest pitfall is the temptation to enter the "panic zone," where many people take "slave morality" as a belief.
In mocking the new religion of the middle class, Žižek said that "if one day there is no long run or organic food, the middle class will be as miserable as a medieval ascetic masturbation."
If disconnecting from the comfort zone is just for the sake of detachment, it becomes a compulsive act of anxiety that makes one an emotional and moral slave. How miserable Xiao Zhuo was, how strong the anxiety hidden under her calm temperament was. But Xiao Zhuo waited until the moment when Grandma and Ten Fang needed to make a final duel, and then passively but calmly left the comfort zone.
<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" > behavioral and cognitive adaptation is growth, and personality adaptation is depravity</h1>
For the "foul-smelling" environment, Xiao Zhuo did not smooth out all his edges and corners, and if he cut enough to fit, there was no Xiao Zhuo behind him.
The process of growing up is the process of understanding the world, and adapting to the environment is the best way to understand the world. Our understanding of the world may be only 5% as a child, 10% when we grow up, and 20% when we are old, but we are always in a state of looking at a corner of the world. The "compromise" of the real environment is to temporarily put aside one's "masquerade personality" at this stage and find the possibility of resonating with the world.
This process grew to the point where it might take thousands of years, to Ning Caichen becoming ten squares, and Xiao Qian becoming Xiao Zhuo.
For the adaptation of the environment, psychology is divided into four stages: sensory adaptation, behavioral adaptation, cognitive adaptation, and personality adaptation.
Sensory adaptation is the initial impression of facing an unfamiliar environment, it is easier to cross this stage; behavioral adaptation is based on the ability to control things, strong problem-solving and interpersonal skills bring faster adaptation to behavior, people are more secure in the unfamiliar environment; cognitive adaptation refers to whether the evaluation of people and things in the new environment is positive or negative, behavioral adaptation only represents the ability to adapt, but does not represent a strong willingness; personality adaptation is the highest level of adaptation. It means that everything from trait patterns to behavioral tendencies is well integrated into the group.
The best state of a person is to complete the adaptation of the first three states and maintain the personality for a long time.
Rogers, the spokesman of the humanistic psychology school, said that a person's personality is a dynamic flow process, more like a river than a house: the overall form of the river is stable, but the river is flowing, and the state of Hanoi changes with the environment.
In the process of adapting to the environment, we must maintain flexible "mobility", as long as we do not become swamps, we can always be able to gather in the ocean, but also in the mountain stream.
Behavioral and cognitive adaptation is what makes people more active in facing the current situation, that is, "if it comes, then it is safe", and to prepare for the next new environment; and the search for personality is often a lifelong task, if we lock ourselves in a specific environment prematurely, we cannot be on the road to our own perfection for a long time.
Xiao Zhuo is in a state of behavioral and cognitive adaptation: whenever there is a task of seducing men, the first thing Grandma thinks of is Xiao Zhuo, which represents her ability and willingness; and in terms of personality, she constantly explores: the inherent incompatibility with other female ghost sisters is the embodiment of personality incompatibility.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" >02 Yan Chixia: The change in the concept of money is the difference between birth and entry, and also symbolizes the convergence of Gou and the distant world</h1>
<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" > the three stages of yan chixia's view of money change, which are complete and irreversible</h1>
Yan Chixia, a man who is bent on doing chivalry and righteousness, because he saw that "Old Yan Chixia" had a tragic end in his old age because he had no ideals but no money, so he made up his mind to make money.
His view of money goes through three stages. The first stage: the hero is greater than the sky, money is something outside the body; the second stage: money is greater than the sky, all cooperation without talking about money is a hooligan; the third stage: not all dreams are related to money. These three stages are complete and irreversible.
The first stage of Yan Chixia, and "do not know" money.
It has been said that there are at least two things in this world, and only those who own it are qualified to say that it is not important, one is money and the other is academic qualifications. "Old Yan Chixia" has never owned money, and has never understood the meaning of money for herself in her life. Until his lonely old age finally died, let "New Yan Chixia" understand a truth: acting heroically or heavily is not important is the second, money must be very important. Money can buy lives.
Life is indeed valuable, but it is expensive. Gambling king Ho Hung-sun recently died, and according to Hong Kong media reports, in the final year, he spent as much as 860,000 yuan a day in the ICU. In other words, he traded the sky-high price for an entire year's worth of life.
Old Yan Chixia "did not know" money all her life, and naturally did not have the opportunity to use money to save her life.
The second stage of Yan Chixia, desperately trying to make money.
Du Yuesheng said: Life should eat three bowls of noodles, one is decent, the second is the scene, and the third is the love noodles.
However, if you want money, you have to put down your face and earn it. Luo Yonghao's live broadcast with goods was ridiculed by the group, but it was really "wise". During the live broadcast, Luo Yonghao said the wrong name of the product, immediately stood up and bowed deeply to the audience, and teased: "I hope that after you see my bald scalp, forgive my Alzheimer's disease." The reason for the "wise" is that this three-hour live broadcast brought in more than 15 million sales.
Yan Chixia also understood this truth. In order to make money, he killed people, he was ridiculed by the monks, and he climbed into the stinky ditch for only a few copper plates. This kind of funny and exaggerated way of expression, the audience not only laughed, but also looked at Yan Chixia's confused eyes and couldn't help but feel a little sad.
What is more pitiful than pulling down the bottom to make money is that the face is gone, and the money is not earned. Yan Chixia was empty-handed to the end. The reason is that the Taoist proposition of making money is that a gentleman loves money and has a way to get it, while Yan Chixia, as a Taoist, violates these two points. Yan Chixia entered a runway that made quick money. The best way to ruin a person is to make him make quick money, and there must be only a lot of pits behind the fast money.
Yan Chixia of the third stage gave up and was disappointed, but her dream also came true.
Money itself is neutral and does not take the initiative to do bad things and good deeds. But the flow and influence that money comes with it has become a driver for people to do good and evil.
Yan Chixia did not touch the minefield and the bottom line again, and he originally wanted to make a fortune from the little monk, but he did not get his wish, and the psychological frustration made him "stand still" on the road to making money.
On the verge of giving up, the director gave Yan Chixia the ending he deserved, and he achieved his original dream, acting heroically: he had the greatest credit for the elimination of the old demon in Montenegro.
<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" > on the road to making money, first confucian, then Taoist</h1>
Maugham said: Money is like the sixth sense, without it, don't want the other five senses to work... They don't know how despicable poverty can make you. It subjects you to endless humiliation...
Yan Chixia's purpose was not to honor the ancestors, but only to have the opportunity to realize her ideals. The same is true of most people's goals: they want poetry and distance, but the first step is still bread first. Taoists were born and Confucians entered the world. When we are young, we should be Confucians, and we must first win a chance to get along with money. When we have money, we then decide whether to take a Taoist or Confucian approach to money.
The Tao Te Ching says, "The way of heaven, the loss of excess and the making up for the deficiency." "In the Taoist view, wealth can not be privately owned by one person, and wealth can only flow endlessly if it enters the social welfare undertakings. With money, you are qualified to choose to realize your dreams like Taoist Yan Chixia, or you can choose to hold the bread tightly and not give up.
Robert Kiyosaki said: Everyone wants freedom, but you can't appreciate the true meaning of freedom until you achieve true financial freedom.
<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" >03 Ten Squares: Narrow-door thinking achieves itself: love yourself, and then have the strength to love others</h1>
Ten Fang is a little monk who has the ability to love Xiao Zhuo, help the master, and finally pudu sentient beings. The "narrow door idea" has made him, giving him the ability to love himself first, and then have the strength to love others.
The narrow door thinking comes from the Bible, and Jesus said to the crowd, "Enter the narrow door." For when it leads to destruction, the gate is wide, the road is great, and there are many who enter it; and when it leads to eternal life, the door is narrow, the road is small, and there are fewer people looking for it. ”
In other words, a wide door is a simple thing to choose to do in the early stage, but the later stage will be crowded with competitors; the narrow door is a difficult thing to choose to do in the early stage, although it is difficult, but it will be easier later.
For the ten parties, he chose the narrow door. The door chosen by the Ten Directions is not the door to heaven, but the monk's door of "Pudu sentient beings". The door is narrow, and the narrowness on the path of practice is more lonely and restless.
As a small monk, Shifang was lonely, otherwise he would not have kept chanting the sutra when Xiao Zhuo seduced him to prevent breaking the vows; Shifang also had his own uneasiness: he left home, became a monk, and lived a life without a ride every day.
Yataro Matsuura told everyone in "Two Things You Can't Help But Love" that there are two things in life that you can't help but love, that is, our "uneasiness" and "loneliness".
Living in loneliness and uneasiness, Ten Fang is the most "self-consistent" person in the movie. First of all, he was the most qualified monk: he did not eat meat; he did not approach women; he chanted Buddhist scriptures. In contrast, Yan Chixia and Xiao Zhuo's own lives are not settled: Yan Chixia struggles with money but cannot, Xiao Zhuo struggles in her livelihood; the little monk is always the optimistic little monk. People who think of narrow doors often can't see their own narrow doors, so they are happy every day, but they are often regarded as fools by the world.
Ren Zhengfei once said: Huawei is a big turtle, for more than 20 years only know how to climb and climb, not to be swayed by the so-called "wind outlet", only "silly" to take their own path. 20 years later, this idiot has become a world leader in 5G technology and has taken on the responsibility of China's technological revolution.
When the path you choose is difficult, very bitter, very tired, congratulations on choosing to be a "fool", the fool's foolish fortune may be late, but will not be absent.
Zhuangzi said: The unique person is the most precious. The Ten Parties finally accomplished great things. Transforming into a golden Buddha with the help of his master, he became the final blow on the way to get rid of the old demon of Montenegro.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" >04 conclusion</h1>
The ghost of the first part wants to be a person, and the ghost of the third part only wants to be a ghost, which is a satire on the world; the first Yan Chixia gallops the liver and gallbladder, and the third part is addicted to money, which is helpless to reality; the first Ning Caichen is willing to sacrifice his life for his lover, and the third part has more dimensions, which is the sublimation of the director's theme. The three "Ghost of a Woman" are all classics, and I only love this one.
