Chinese entertainment for engineering students

A reader asked me to talk about advanced aesthetics with a rather arrogant attitude, as if he had already grasped some kind of truth and was just waiting for me, a sinner who belongs to the Shuimu group, to give me a feeble answer.

Then let me talk about it.

In fact, the so-called advanced aesthetics comes from the era I am writing about, the 1980s and 1990s.

China, which reformed in the 1980s, is like a man in rags suddenly standing under the spotlight.

Although he once had great achievements in fighting the United Nations alone, although he had the strength to conquer both poles of the world, even though he still had the residual power of having just swept away the monkeys.

But his heart was still filled with fear, uneasiness, and even anxiety, because no one understood the power of the West better than those who had experienced those wars.

We won, but we can only win. We have stopped at the front line before the war, and that was obtained with the blood of more than 200,000 soldiers. That is the root cause of our phobia of being unable to stop fire.

Imagine that you have just come out of the countryside, penniless and in rags, and you are suddenly invited to a banquet full of guests.

Even if your back is straight, even if you tell yourself to be neither humble nor arrogant, looking at other people's bright clothes, looking at the glittering decorations around, looking at their ceremonial manners, can you really do it? Fear, no doubt, no low self-esteem?

In the 1980s and 1990s, people who went abroad had to undergo diplomatic etiquette training, for fear that if they were not careful and showed cowardice, they would offend foreigners and lose the face of Chinese people. Can you say that the diplomats of that generation had no backbone and were sycophantic?

The result of this mentality is that even a little bit of kindness and recognition given by others will be appreciated and remembered by this generation.

The so-called high-level aesthetics is a "goodwill" left to China in this era.

In the 1980s, a thin, tall, narrow-eyed poor girl from the countryside was suddenly noticed by the world's top designers and promoted to a world-class catwalk. As his family, would you be proud? ?

When you are wondering in your heart why they like such a look, they very gently tell you that this look is very high-end, do you believe it or not?

No whips, no boards, no knives, not even notes.

Please put yourself in my shoes, if it were you, would you believe it?

In 2023, when you are enjoying the convenience of the explosion of knowledge on the Internet, you think you are well-informed and you curse at will.

Please don't forget that the generation of people in the past didn't even understand what others were saying. They only knew that when others smiled, we should smile back.

Now you say that a high-end face is not good-looking, that is because you are already wearing gold and silver, that is because you are already full of wine and food, that is because you are even strong and full of knowledge.

So you no longer feel inferior, you dare to question anyone, you dare to express yourself in front of them, and you dare to use your own aesthetics to dominate others.

That is because the predecessors have laid a sufficient material foundation for you, so that you can have enough food and clothing and know honor and disgrace, and you can know the etiquette of the warehouse.

In the 1990s, doubting oneself was engraved in the bones of every intellectual.

This kind of doubt made people of that era almost study hard, no matter whether it was good or bad, good or bad.

Where do you think those technologies came from? That’s a little bit of translation, a little bit of learning!

But this kind of nearly all-round learning inevitably accepts some of their rhetoric.

To be honest, now that I see that kind of deformed aesthetic, I feel sad, even desolate.

Because in that era, we really believed that it was advanced. We didn’t like it because we hadn’t learned it yet, and some people still can’t turn around until now.

This is the tragedy of an era.

I keep saying that they have influenced the aesthetics of future generations. If they really did, why would you feel ugly?

Since you have not been affected, he has not been affected, and netizens have not been affected, who has been affected? Who are the descendants you are talking about?

Have you noticed that this is a logical trap, using a non-existent assumption, using a person and thing that is not important at all, to deny the entirety of a group.

The highest point of morality is that the professor's views have influenced future generations, not that there is anything really wrong with that professor's views.

But no one can tell who the affected descendant is.

If this professor is wrong, all you have to do is point it out. He only has a few thousand fans, and not all of them believe him. You have to scold him so that the entire Internet knows about it. Who is promoting this deformed aesthetic?

The few photos of Mizuki Dollar with his eyes narrowed were nothing more than a student's graduation catwalk. There were only one or two models with that look, the rest were other weird ideas, and some even rolled their eyes.

Several professors commented very favorably on this show, it was quite high-end, that’s all.

I believe that there are definitely no more than a thousand people who have actually seen it live.

As a result, it was inexplicably publicized to the whole Internet, and then the entire Internet criticized Shuimu Traitor School and recommended severe punishment.

You say there really is no third party force here, but I don’t believe it anyway.

This kind of deformed aesthetic is actually a legacy problem, because some people really believe it.

If you don't like these things left over, you can correct them, and you can even correct them. If they are no big deal, please forget about them. They are already old.

Instead of insulting your predecessors over and over again for leaving you with a trap.

If the predecessors have done everything perfectly, what use is it to you?

Just because you hate accepting a senior professor with narrow eyes, you can't hate Mizuki, who has trained countless talents in China.

What's more, we shouldn't just follow those rumors that are obviously false at first glance without conducting any simple investigation, and then criticize them in the same way, and put countless dirty hats on that group.

Since when has it become a luxury to discuss things as they happen? It seems that the seriousness of emotions cannot be expressed without elevating the matter to two levels.

I dare say that that group has contributed far more to the country than those who abuse them casually.

But, so what, what I saw was just unreasonable abuse, calling a generation of famous schools worse than shit.

Is there really any benefit in over-praising the so-called Seven Men of National Defense?

They regard ignorance as a hot topic and vulgarity as a trend. They are so shallow that even debating makes me feel like I am wasting my life.

Let’s not talk about being angry. Alas, I’m still young, so why can’t I keep my temper?
