I often feel that the stars in our movie circle are very similar to another circle, but I can't think of which circle it is for a while.It wasn't until one time when I passed by a newsstand and saw movie magazines and "Sports Weekly" side by side in a blink of an eye, that I suddenly remembered: it was the football circle. There used to be a lot of big names in the Chinese football circle for a few years.This one is "Dong", that one is "Great General", and there is someone who is No. 1 in Asia, No. 1 in East Asia, and something that you haven't seen in thirty years. Anyway, all of them are talented and famous.

At that time, the style of those wrists in the football circle was also in line with our imagination of big men: they love to roll their eyes, they are harsh, they don’t talk well, they like to talk about things for five thousand years, their tolerance for criticism is relatively low, and they often And angrily denounced so and so, and bombarded so and so. Those wrists themselves are also very depressed.They are keenly aware that behind the superficial pursuit of the public and the media, there is always an unwelcome emotion hidden, and when they are not in the limelight, they will come out to counterattack and take revenge.

This insecurity makes them feel wronged. In the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, a website invited Hao Haidong to do a program. The old comrade has retired for so many years, and when he opened his mouth, he still had endless anger at the football commentators. There is often an accusation that these players have too much temper, which I don't think is fair.It's not because of their temper, it's because of their small circle. At that time, Chinese football was a standard small circle.The strength of the so-called "Top Four in Asia" is needed when meeting South Korea and Iran as usual, but it seems that they can fight against Saudi Arabia;The big shots in such a small circle inevitably have a bigger temper.

Just like the Peach Blossom Mountain in the village, although its strength is weak, it is still enough to run rampant in the countryside and dominate the village.The heroes on the mountain come behind closed doors to get their nicknames and discuss their seats. The eldest is called "Tiger Fighter" and the second is called "Little Overlord".As long as Lu Zhishen doesn't pass by at the foot of the mountain, everything will be fine, and all the minions will hug and worship him every day. My main job is to read Jin Yong.The martial arts figures who have read the golden books, those who have the most tempered and irritated, those who are so-called "unable to get on stage" in the Sichuan and Chongqing dialects are all people who are in the small circle.

For example, who is the craziest person in the whole book?It wasn't the sweeping monk, nor Bei Qiaofeng, Murong Bo, or Jiumozhi, but the "Sword God" Mr. Zhuo Bufan, a typical big shot in a small circle.Another example is Huo Dou, the prince of Li Mongolia, and Quan Jiannan, a warrior of Goryeo in Li. They are both typical lunatics. Heroes are typical of those who have been in small circles for a long time. In contrast, if the circle is larger, the thorns will be softer.Lin Chong is the gun and club instructor of the 800,000 Imperial Guards in Tokyo. He committed a crime and was sent to exile. He met the martial arts teacher "Instructor Hong" in a village in Cangzhou. The scene where the two met was very interesting.

Professor Hong's head is "wearing a headscarf on one side, with his breasts sticking out".Lin Chong hurriedly bowed to him and sang, "He didn't pay any attention to him at all, and he didn't return the courtesy", and he didn't speak well. This can't be blamed on Coach Hong being rude.The book explained the reason why he formed this style, which is "here is not long, and there is no opponent here" - you must know that the place where Instructor Hong engages in martial arts activities is a remote village in Henghai County, Cangzhou. It's "Far Evil Army State", and he has no rivals in the village, so of course he is better.You can't ask him like you ask Lin Chong. Lin Chong is in the big circle of Tokyo and knows that there is a truth beyond the sky.

One of the distinguishing characteristics of big figures in small circles is that they tend to have a low tolerance for criticism.In the same place, the hero Wang Jin fled to the remote Shijia Village, and inadvertently criticized the village chief's son for not being good at martial arts. The son was furious: "Who are you? How dare you laugh at my ability? I have learned from seven or eight famous masters. If I don't believe it, I'm not as good as you? Do you dare to cross with me?" Thinking about some of the movies we complained about back then, the fierce reactions of those big directors who were provoked, they wanted to find out the critics and "fork it" with their own hands. Isn't it very similar to the son of Shijia Village?

We often like to understand the unique temperament of some great people as "talented".Because the vast majority of us have no talents, we don’t understand what it means to be “talented”, just like men can never understand what it’s like for a woman to be pregnant. We like to attach something to "talented" people.For example, a big man likes to roll his eyes and doesn’t speak well. We think it’s because he’s “talented”, so he stands alone; when faced with criticism, a big man often loses his temper because he’s “talented”, so he “deeply feels the pain of not being able to communicate with the world.” ".Just like I read a comment a few days ago, the thorns on a certain director's body are intended to wake up the nerves of many mediocre people.

I don't think it has anything to do with being "talented".The truth is because our movie is also a standard small circle, and they have been in this circle for a long time. Chinese movies are said to be "a hundred years of glory", just like the thirty-six cave masters and seventy-two island masters in the movie. Waiting for "characters" isn't it?But the facts are before our eyes. You and I know how good these individuals and these plays are, and how many classics there are. It's no wonder that there are scenes here that are very similar to those in the football circle back then: who is Dong, who is the general, who is the rare talent in thirty years, who is the strange guest who never came out of the world, all of them are domineering.If you dare to ask specific results, you must be uncomfortable, and they will definitely roll their eyes at you: Do you understand football?

It's not that the big shots in the village don't know that the sky is high and the earth is big outside.Just like the "Sword God" Zhuo Bufan, no matter how isolated he is from the world, he should at least know that there is a Tianshan Child Elder in the world; when he and Murong Fu are together, he also seems quite peaceful. The big shots in the small circle actually have another kind of low-browed and pleasing face.Only when you close the door and face the people in your own village will you be particularly confident.The reason why Coach Hong dared to despise Lin Chong was because he mistook Lin Chong for a liar, and he felt that the probability of real big shots appearing in small circles was very low.If Lin Chong had a work permit with a steel seal, Coach Hong would definitely not provoke him rashly.

Prosperity is a good thing, but there is only one thing: we'd better not interpret all the faults as "talented". It's not fair to the parties involved if we always interpret it too much.I remember when Jin Shengtan commented on the Water Margin, he said that it is also rude. Ru Da is rude because he is hasty, Shi Jin is rude because he is a young man, Li Kui is rude because he is barbaric, Wu Song is rude because he is a hero without restraint, and Ruan Xiaoqi is rude because he is sad and indignant. Rudeness is bad temperament. You may not be familiar with Jiao Ting.He "passed down three generations of his ancestors and made a living from sumo wrestling", and he is indeed the number one figure in his small circle in Zhongshan Prefecture; however, in the comparison of Liangshan in the big circle, Mr. Li Jiao can only be ranked 98th out of 108 generals. It doesn't matter if you like Mr. Jiao, but if you have to say that his rudeness is due to "a domineering talent that is incompatible with this world", of course he himself will laugh at it, but don't you think it's disgusting? !
