Didn't you say that we would lose money after filming?

"Ah, as expected."

“This conjecture finally came true.”

"If it doesn't give up and go with the flow, it won't be the Oscars. I can only say that there is a reason why the Oscars are in decline now. It's a pity for such a long-standing award."

"I haven't had time to watch this movie yet, and now seeing all these good reviews, it makes me anxious."

"I want to see a movie! I want to see a movie! I want to see a movie!"

“Hahahahahahaha, Oscar, you’re actually the same as those mainstream media. They never dare to bark loudly at their masters.”

"I have seen this movie, and I have no regrets. The real regrets are those who have not seen it. Really, to use a phrase on the Internet now, this movie is truly, truly, truly the best in film history."

"Damn it! The more you say that, the more I scratch my head!"

"Fear holds you prisoner, hope sets you free." - The Shawshank Redemption

"A movie that is considered a masterpiece in my heart is The Shawshank Redemption"
It tells the story of a young banker who was imprisoned for a wrongful conviction and how he seeks freedom in prison.

Perhaps in the artistic medium of film, different people may have different feelings when watching the same film.

For me, who is currently powerless to change the status quo, my deepest feeling after watching this film is that talent and perseverance are the best ways for anyone to gain freedom in any situation.

The young banker in the film, with his mastery of banking and financial knowledge, not only won the safety of his life and a little freedom in prison, but also secured material and spiritual benefits for his fellow prisoners.

It is precisely because of his proficiency in finance that the male protagonist is able to completely defeat the cruel and insidious warden and gain material freedom.

On the other hand, look at the unremitting application letters every week for six years, the two application letters every week for N years, the tunnels dug day and night with the stone axe that "cannot dig a tunnel in 600 years", the sewer pipes smashed with stones amid thunder and lightning, the 500-meter-long smelly sewer crawling while vomiting...all of these deeply engraved one word: perseverance.

Anyone who wants to finally gain freedom under the blue sky and white clouds must possess these two things - extraordinary talent and tenacious perseverance.

I finally figured out why I’m still depressed:
First: No talent that can be used
I loved drawing when I was little, but as I grew older I concentrated on reading sage books and preparing for the college entrance exams, and never picked up a paintbrush again.

I studied medicine in college, but the days I spent studying medicine were spent learning guitar and reading. After work, I don’t have time to practice the guitar, so it naturally falls into disuse.

All along, I have practiced calligraphy, seal carving, sketching, comics, Photoshop, flash, Dreamweaver, gardening... and other things that interest me, but no matter which one I try, I only give up after a brief try. Although the reasons for giving up halfway are different, in the end, they all mean that I couldn't persist.

So, I'm basically the kind of person who knows a little bit about everything but doesn't know how to do anything.

Second: No perseverance
In fact, it can be seen from the above that there are so many hobbies and so many attempts, but in the end I gave up halfway. If one thing can persist for half a year, the results will be very different.

I am a typical person who has no ambition but always sets goals. I have a notebook where I write down my plans.

I don’t know if other people have such a notebook, but I have to set up a special little notebook like this because I have to update the plan I made every once in a while.

In fact, every time I make a plan, I hope I can keep doing it, but...

I know I am not consistent, so after I made my latest plan, I wrote down at the end of it: "I hope I can stick to it for three months" - but one month later, these words made me not have the courage to read the previous part when I wrote the new plan. I saw the movie review of "The Shawshank Redemption" on Rotten Tomatoes, and the analysis of the plot, performance, connotation, etc. of the movie was so insightful that I was ashamed.

However, I still hid aside and secretly wrote this article.

Even though I have poor writing skills and my thoughts are superficial, every little person has the right to have her feelings about everything - especially such beautiful things. This film touched me so much because, for the first time, I knew why I had been working so hard but was still depressed. Maybe someone feels the same as me?
Perhaps "The Shawshank Redemption" no longer needs film reviews, because it is good enough and does not need anyone to prove how good it is.

But the only thought I expressed was that I needed to speak up for Xia Yuan and speak up against this injustice.

Sometimes, I am not sure if I am the only one missing something, and I dare not bet if my voice is the only one missing. But I really don’t want to see such a good work disappear and become a victim of the struggle. Art, especially good art, is always innocent. "

"Protest! Protest! We want to protest!"

"We have had enough of the oppression from those Celestial Dragons!"

"Die to the Celestial Dragons! Die to Oscar!"

The sound also burst out completely at this moment.

Then, another incident completely ignited the dispute and the public's long-suppressed emotions and anger.

That's it. The Corrion Awards, it begins!

This year's Corien Award, the ultimate Best Picture, was awarded to "The Shawshank Redemption".

The Best Director award went to Xia Yuan.

Moreover, this time, Xia Yuan himself went to the award ceremony to receive the award.

This was broadcast around the world via a global live broadcast.

So, although both are broadcast live around the world, the Corien Awards at this moment are more than five times more popular than the Oscars.

This is a terrifying figure that is even higher than the traffic when the Oscars were still normal.

The Internet completely exploded.

“Hahahahahaha, I like this result!”

"Deserved!"

"As we all know, for an award like the Corien Awards, which has not yet established itself in the film industry, this choice is undoubtedly a gamble. What I want to say is, since the Corien Awards chose to take the gamble for us fans, they chose to go in the opposite direction, a road that is destined to be full of thorns, then should we let them lose?"

"No, we should unite as well."

"Go ahead, it's time to make our voices heard. We need to let those who don't see the suffering of the world see how powerful the American people are!" (End of this chapter)
