Chapter 428 Mom and Wife Falling into the Water Who to Save?
Until the next file, the global box office broke one billion US dollars, ranking third in the year!
This result is not bad. Four Hollywood movies have a cumulative box office of 40 billion, which fully proves their strength.

Back in Beverly, countless scripts flew in like a snowflake, not just the Big Six, but also many independent film companies, all types.

After watching all of them, I was not very satisfied. I had no choice but to choose a script from Warner, which was another disaster movie. Last time it was a man-made disaster, but this time it was a natural disaster.

Doomsday collapse!

The protagonist is Raymond, a former American soldier who became a helicopter rescue worker for the Los Angeles Fire Department after ending his war career.Although you work hard, are admired and trustworthy, these cannot save a failed marriage.

After a short vacation, Ray returned to work. At this time, the Hoover Dam was completely destroyed in the largest earthquake in southern Nevada.

Another round of strong earthquakes hit Los Angeles from San Francisco. From a helicopter, we witnessed the terrible scene of the bustling city turning into ruins in an instant.

At this time, his wife, Emma, ​​and their daughter were separated in two cities. In order to save the two they loved most, they marched forward bravely and raced against the earthquake.

Another heroic tough guy movie.

The reason why I chose this script was based on the box office. There seems to be no disaster movies that are too hard in the past few years, and the audience should like it.

The investment was more than [-] million U.S. dollars, and most of it was spent on special effects. Just reading the script, you can know that the big scene is very shocking, which is also the reason why I chose it.

San Andreas is a place name, translated as San Andreas. Together with Fault, the San Andreas Fault forms a more famous name, the San Andreas Fault.

两大板块平均每年滑动距离为33至37毫米，科学家推测这可能会发生级别达9级以上的地震。早在1906年，这一带已经发生过强度达里氏震级7.8级的旧金山大地震。

100 years on, the threat of earthquakes has always been there, though it's not known exactly when.The script is a sci-fi film based on the speculation of this geological situation, which can be regarded as a preview and warning.

For such a popcorn movie, Ding Cheng is more interested in the story setting of the protagonist’s family.From a story perspective, of course, the more the different family members are spread out, preferably in the most severely affected areas, the better they can connect the plot and the more fully they can show the horror of the disaster.

Therefore, the family represented by the protagonist is properly distributed in three places. The way the tough guy tries to rescue the family members shows the whole disaster very well.From his perspective, big scenes appear from time to time, and it becomes logical.

What’s even more interesting is that although they were all about saving wives and daughters, last time the skyscrapers were only on a small scale, the victims were only the protagonist’s relatives, not anyone else.

This time is different, in the face of endless natural disasters, I will play the role of a pilot of the Air Force Squadron of the Fire Brigade, a veteran fighter in the Gulf War who has done a lot of beautiful jobs.

But when the big earthquake broke out, they were waiting for orders to go to a certain place to gather.When a natural disaster strikes, when you hear that your wife is trapped in a certain building, you immediately turn around the helicopter you are flying alone to rescue your wife?

This kind of spirit of ignoring everyone and only caring about my own family, in my vast country, is simply...

As a government employee and a member of the rescue team, in principle, we must rescue those who should be assisted nearby.Right under the helicopter, there are countless victims, but the tough guy designed by the script resolutely went to where his wife was, and rescued her after going through untold hardships.

This is not over yet, the two went to rescue the daughter in deep trouble in a distant place, and still ignored other disaster victims who were easier to rescue?

Even if the helicopter crashes, he will use the car that comes along to run away.He even drove away from the small plane parked at the airport without saying hello...

Even Ding Cheng was amazed by this kind of self-interested behavior that harms others, but in the hearts of Americans, everything goes smoothly?
The screenwriter portrayed the protagonist as a completely decent, flesh-and-blood hero.Although in some moral terms, his behavior is not worth encouraging, but in fact there is nothing derogatory about it.

On the contrary, it is full of praise and praise everywhere, and the characters are completely portrayed in the way of portraying heroes.This made Ding Cheng a little confused, and he finally understood it until he met the director Brad.

"When faced with a disaster, we should save ourselves first, and then save others. If possible, save our own family first, and then others."

"Because the pain of one happy family is better than the pain of two broken families!"

Ding Cheng suddenly realized that this is a cultural conflict.The Chinese media are good at describing heroes who ignore their own comfort and don't save their own families first, but save other people first, and regard this behavior as a manifestation of righteousness.

To put it bluntly, it is due to the habit of traditional collectivism. In a family group bound by blood, someone sacrifices himself to protect the interests of the family, just like crossing a fire ant colony in a group. Although the individual sacrifices, the collective can still preserve the interests of the family. Come down, and the surviving collective will also compensate the victims, allowing them to enjoy the corresponding mourning.

In traditional societies, individual sacrifices allow the group to obtain maximum benefits. This approach plays a very important role in maintaining collective production and reproduction, as well as social stability.

But in the development of modern society, the collective role of blood relationship is getting smaller and smaller, and the influence of family on individual families is getting smaller and smaller, and the relationship between the individual and the collective is no longer close. Emphasizing the role of the collective has little meaning.

For individual sacrifices, relevant relatives receive less and less compensation from the collective, and the value of individual sacrifices becomes less and less important.

The individual's own value is becoming more and more important to small families.Because American families modernized earlier, they changed their social evaluation system early.

More emphasis is placed on the role of the individual, and individualism has become the dominant theory.In fact, this should be the case. In the face of disasters, every individual is insignificant, and post-disaster reconstruction requires more resources. The psychological recovery of post-disaster trauma is also a very thorny issue.

A relatively happy family can recover from psychological trauma far better than two broken families.What if a person has the ability to save his own family, but fails to do so and chooses to save other people?

It can be foreseen that during the post-disaster reconstruction process, he will face the grief of the death of family members, as well as the self-blame of not saving him when he could have, and the psychological pressure can be imagined.

Moreover, it is difficult for the person he rescued to ensure that all family members survived the disaster, so the rescued person will also cherish the fact that he has survived while other relatives have left, and then he will be deeply saddened.

Emphasis is placed on helping people in disasters, while ignoring the psychological trauma after the disaster. This kind of pain with the nature of secondary injury will often torture the lucky ones more and make recovery more difficult.

Ding Cheng finally understood why the script attracted him!
