On this seemingly not lonely earth, every day from the moment the sun rises, everyone continues to struggle in the direction of their own efforts. No matter what country you are in, no matter what family you are in, no matter what kind of work you do, we all have a common goal, that is, we hope that our lives can be better, and we hope that the results of our efforts this time will surpass the glory of the last time.
However, after we work hard, we find that some things are not as expected, and your efforts may not always be fruitful.
1. A lot of people are always trying to "self-hilarity".
In the morning, when I was watching the video, I saw Dapeng chatting with Fan Deng in a live broadcast, he said that he didn't want to be scolded for making bad movies all the time, and every time a new work was launched, it didn't surpass his first film "Pancake Man".
For Dapeng, "Pancake Man" is Dapeng's first film work, no matter what the reputation is, but for Dapeng at the beginning, he has paid all his cognition at the beginning and used all the actors he knew at the beginning. According to the logic of the film and television industry, the more big stars who show their faces in a movie, the more points they can add to this movie.
And the film earned 1.159 billion yuan at the box office in 2015. For the new director Dapeng, the first work has such a box office, which is really admirable.
But insiders look at the doorway, and laymen look at the excitement. How much of the box office income of 1.159 billion yuan will really go to Dapeng, this is a matter in the capital circle.
Whether a film is good or not, from the capital side to see the box office, on the other hand, from the audience to see how the empathy ability.
Of course, in 2015, there were a lot of bad movies, including many variety shows that turned into movies, harvesting a large wave of leeks. In that era when people were stupid and had a lot of money, as long as they were actors in the film industry, they could make some money.
With the competition in the film industry and the change in netizens' perception of consumption, movies are not paid for, just like the attitude of young people towards work now, showing their own personality everywhere, and it is no longer a cowardly performance like the post-80s generation. Young people gradually have their own ideas and principles.
So, what is a bad movie? If you look at the box office, if you want to surpass the era when people were stupid and made a lot of money at the box office, it is indeed difficult to surpass the past.
If you still don't have enough requirements for yourself according to the quality of your works, look at Wang Baoqiang, the king of bad movies has gone to receive the Golden Broom Award, but a few years later, a shocking "In the Octagon Cage" caused a good social response as soon as it was released. Therefore, Dapeng does not want to be scolded, so he must work hard to increase the quality of the content of his works.
Don't always live in a "self-hilarious" effort, it's not "I think I've worked hard" is called effort, a lot of times, we work hard to show others.
2. Have you worked hard for so many years?
There is a very good saying, how much you give to a thing, how much you return, sometimes, even if you work hard, you will not see any results.
One of the things that will be very popular in 2023 is that Jiaqi brought goods to Huaxizi to scold netizens, and the sentence "Have you worked hard over the years" hit 80% of ordinary people in the country.
Indeed, think about it, for more than ten years, Huaxizi, which originally cost only a few yuan, has to make the commission 80% by the Internet celebrity economy, so that the Internet celebrity can make money, the manufacturer will not lose money, and netizens will spend money, so that the three parties can achieve a win-win situation between the two parties.
And back to the root of the problem, think about it, why more than ten years of hard work, not afraid of hard overtime, the result is still a monthly income of 350000 salarymen. We spent all our youth in ten years, worked hard, and in the end we found that the balance was still a few thousand dollars.
No, we all work hard for our families and for our lives, but our lives are still so hard to make ends meet.
3. Do ordinary people's efforts bear fruit?
In recent years, the aging population has increased significantly, and the marriage rate has been declining year by year, and even the birth rate of newborns is falling off a cliff.
So, in the face of these problems, can we solve them with a little effort as an ordinary person?
No matter how hard we work and stay up late and work overtime, can we get a higher wage for the time we work on?
There is always a law of 28 in this world, the rich have extra financial resources to invest in new projects, if they make money, it will double their growth, and if they lose a big deal, they will spend money to test the waters, and it will not have any impact on their lives.
And ordinary people are amazing, once the investment fails, not only will more than ten years of savings be gone, but also will cause a huge economic famine, seriously affecting the normal relationship of the family, it is not an exaggeration to say. The life of ordinary people is like this, there is no extra financial resources to test the waters for you, and there is no extra time for you to experiment.
Can this say that ordinary people don't work hard?
Back to the beginning, Dapeng said that he was afraid of being scolded for making bad movies, and if he wanted to surpass the works of "Pancake Man", it is indeed not that you can see the results if you work hard.
Counting every film after Dapeng started from the sling man, there are actually different aspects of progress, from Dapeng himself, he did work hard, and each time it was better than the last time, although there will be some plagiarism in the work.
But from the audience's point of view, it's a different matter.
As some netizens said: Your efforts do not necessarily lead to results, because many people work hard but have no results.
There is an old saying, which Confucius said: Do your best and obey the destiny of heaven!
There are some things, some times, you do it with all your heart, and you are worthy of yourself, it is enough.
