Second, it inspires the strong. This may not be what many people expect, but it is true. Many positive people in my circle of friends expressed their encouragement after watching the video. Why? Let's review the story: one is the truth of life, not simply resignation. In a rather limited space, he is actually very enterprising. Learning carpentry and machine maintenance, my uncle has almost become the hexagon of rural life. As far as fate is concerned, he is powerless: but as far as his environment is concerned, he is an upward person. What is the biggest psychological problem of a positive person? I don't know where the end point is. In any environment, they all want to be excellent and successful. So although they seem to be upgrading, their hearts are full of anxiety and even despair. And my uncle's story is a decompressor. Let them break away from the contrast and briefly enter a state of mind that as long as they work hard, small achievements are also gratifying.
Third, it satisfies the rural imagination of modern urbanites. It is not difficult to find that the tone of the video is still pastoral: the old house 200 years ago, my silent uncle and grandmother, showed strong growth in it. This rural narrative is nothing new. Decades of urbanization have long made rural life far away. For the older generation, it is a purified homesickness; For the younger generation, this is an imaginary paradise. In a word, it exists as a replica of city life. The greater the pressure of urban life, the more poetic rural works will have a market.
But as I said at the beginning, I don't like any behavior of helping others, so this video can't cure me, and even makes me feel a little lucky. Even if all the narratives are true, the producers have avoided some stinging noises: for example, how does grandma's daily life in the video make her think of suicide? Don't lie to me. I have met many old rural women. No special events. They all want to borrow heaven for another 500 years. Moreover, if he doesn't want to mention a word about his two true emotional memories, he will speak to the occurrence and suppression of desire. Of course, I understand that the producer wants to portray my uncle as the opposite of himself (in fact, he is an artificial self, that is, a young man in a big city), and this tacky desire story can certainly not be dug deep. But because of this, the description of my uncle's life in the video is actually very superficial, or the same sentence: it is light for others.
This has caused people who claim to like this video to actually avoid something intentionally or unintentionally. The weak always forget selectively in different environments, and the definition of bad cards is actually different. Powerful people will certainly not admit that they are inspired by the spirit of these two things. However, they avoid the life they get by actively doing two things.
