Chapter 56 security guard's clothes

As a uniform control, in my eyes, uniforms can always get a higher evaluation than ordinary clothes, but I only don't like the clothes of the security guards. Among all the uniforms, the clothes of the security guards are the ugliest. In Jia Zhangke’s movie, Cheng Tai’s male protagonist is the security guard of a large theme park. The uniforms he and his colleagues wear are the most common security uniforms, blue-gray, wide shoulders, big crotch, fat trouser legs, and matching Hard-shell hats with large brims, the whole outfit is bulky and doesn't show your body shape. In "Curiosity Kills the Cat", the uniform worn by the security guard played by Liao Fan is probably designed to match the fashion atmosphere of the whole movie. It is slightly elaborate, with dark blue trousers, blue-gray shirt, epaulets, tie and sash , The whole set of clothing tried to be closer to the police uniform, but the clothes were not realistic. In reality, most of the security uniforms were in the middle style.

The protagonist in Finnish film master Aki Kaurismaki's film "Evening Light" is also a security guard, one of the weakest and most easily ignored group of people. Rejected, and was mercilessly humiliated by the bank manager, his clothes, too, were ugly, dark, baggy, with unnecessary pockets, unreasonable waist and hip design, very ill-fitting - security guards' clothes were also rare Fit, low salary, high mobility, what you wear today may wear him tomorrow, it will never fit, let alone have any extravagant expectations of beauty. Based on the beauty of a thing, we can easily judge its position in society-beauty is also unfairly distributed according to the level. less.Although, at a lower cost, some kind of simple and simple beauty can also be realized, but the whole world is more willing to realize ugliness at a slightly higher cost and impose it on others, in a way of giving a person or a group of ugly shells, Framing the position of a person or a group, the subtext is: you are only worthy of this level of beauty.Affordable housing, security uniforms, and school uniforms are all models that lack aesthetics.

I used to work in a building that was said to be the second tallest in the city. The security guards in the building had a monthly income of 450 yuan. They had no insurance and no holidays. What they wore was the style of security uniforms in the middle.They don't like this clothes, they never wash it, let alone iron it, and they don't value this job. One of them often buryes himself in the textbooks for the undergraduate section of the self-study exam (he said he has college diploma), ready to leave, and even after four years, he still hasn't been able to.One day I met him on the street, and I barely recognized him. He took off his security uniform, wore jeans and a light-colored T-shirt, and was riding a motorcycle. No matter how you look at it, he was still a relatively spiritual man. I believe he also understands beauty and has a need for beauty, but what he got, what he was assigned, were ugly security uniforms.

So I hope that he can break through his current situation and try his best to go up. Of course, it is very difficult to break through his own level and go up a level. What is more difficult than this is to obtain the aesthetic feeling of the upper level, because that requires a little time. Higher levels stay long enough.
