A major adjustment: Number three has been transferred, and the person who really does things has become the blame man?

Landmap, a homophonic "blueprint", symbolizes a beautiful plan and prospects. But since it announced its independence on June 26, 2021, Dongfeng’s high-end brand of new energy vehicles, "Landmap", is experiencing the transfer of the No. 3 person after 18 months in office, and sales continue to decline. It has even announced a high-profile learning of the direct-operated + experience store model of Tesla, NIO, etc., and is also transforming into a dealer franchise model. Since its establishment one year ago, Landmap has no "blueprint"?

As a subsidiary of Dongfeng Motor Group, Lantu announced its entry into the high-end new energy vehicle market in 2020, targeting Tesla, NIO, Ideal and other brands. But after experiencing a significant increase in sales in the second half of last year, it seemed to be lackluster, and it encountered Waterloo in the first quarter of this year.

Lantu Experience Store (Zhiliao Car Shooting)

In terms of sales, in the first two months of this year, Lantu’s month-on-month decline has maintained a continuous decline of more than 50%, and the company’s management has also changed. Lantu, which once insisted on "living for users", has now become a sales-only theory. This new energy brand under Dongfeng may have stood at the crossroads of high-end new energy vehicles, and the situation is quite embarrassing.

"Number Three" was transferred after 18 months.

In 32 years, the minister of the Dongfeng system left sadly

According to sources familiar with the matter, Lei Xin, the chief brand officer (CBO) of Lantu, who had served in the Dongfeng department for more than ten years, has been transferred at the end of March this year, and his position has been temporarily taken over by Lantu CEO and CTO Lu Fang.

Lei Xin’s departure, even within the company, seemed very sudden. "It was quite sudden and unexpected," a person familiar with the matter said. "The day before, Lei always had a meeting and deployed relevant work until late at night, and there was no abnormality."

Zhiliao Automotive found that this is another change of position since Lei’s new appointment at Lantu, only about 18 months apart from the last one.

Landmap executive team members: Dongfeng Company Deputy General Manager, Landmap Chairperson You Zheng (third from left), Landmap CEO and CTO Lu Fang (second from right), Chief Brand Officer Lei Xin (first from right), chief operating officer Jiang Tao (first from left) and Chief Financial Officer Shen Jun (second from left)

On July 17, 2020, Lantu held a press conference in Wuhan to announce the launch of the "Lantu" brand and enter the high-end new energy vehicle market. At this press conference, Lantu’s executive team also made its debut to the outside world. This time Lei Xin appeared as the chief brand officer of Lantu for the first time.

Zhiliao Automobile found that whether it was from this press conference or subsequent activities of Landmap, Lei Xin was ranked after You Zheng and Lu Fang, and could be called the "No. 3 person" of Landmap.

This executive, who is so important to Landmap, is a veteran with more than 30 years of experience in Dongfeng. As early as 1990, Lei Xin joined Dongfeng Motor Company as an engineer. Since then, Lei Xin has successively served as the head of the strategic planning department, general manager, and executive deputy general manager of Dongfeng Motor, Shenlong Motor, Dongfeng Infiniti and other companies. As of March 2022, Lei Xin has been working in Dongfeng for 32 years, which can be regarded as witnessing the rise and fall of an automobile manufacturing company.

According to Tianyancha data, from March 23 to April 2 this year, Lei Xin has stepped down from the positions of heads of seven companies, including "Landmap Sales and Service Co., Ltd. Chengdu Branch".

Perhaps one of the main reasons why it has not been widely reported in the industry is that Lei Xin currently has many related connections with Landmap. According to Tianyancha information, Lei Xin also holds important positions in 56 other companies, all of which are related to Landmap.

But it cannot be ignored that the sudden transfer of Lei Xin may be directly related to the dismal sales of Lantu in the first quarter of this year.

It has fallen by more than 50% for two consecutive months.

Only 8% of the annual target was achieved.

Or the main reason for the adjustment

According to the statistics of China Automobile, in the first two months of this year, the sales of Lantu increased by -53.36% and -52.35% respectively. Especially in February, the sales volume of the month was only 740 units, which was the second-to-last result after the mass production of its models, only better than the sales volume in the first month of August last year.

Landscape’s sales growth trend since August last year (Zhiliao Automotive Drawing)

It was not until March this year that Lantu’s sales resumed to more than 1,000 units, but this achievement was also unsatisfactory.

Data from the China Automobile Association shows that Landmap ranked only 13th in the sales of large SUVs in March, not only falling behind the ideal and NIO, but also losing the top 10 last year.

In 2022, Lantu called out the goal of "sales 46,000, production 48,000", which is even more than 3 times that of last year (13,000), but as of the first quarter of this year, the production and sales of Lantu’s first model, Lantu FREE, were 6044 and 3693 respectively, and the completion of production and sales was only 12.59% and 8.03% of this year’s target.

This is a very obvious gap with direct competitors NIO ES6 and Ideal ONE. In the first quarter of this year, NIO ES6 sales were 5064 units, and Ideal ONE sales reached 11,034 units. The sales volume of Lantu FREE in the first quarter is less than the sales volume of the two direct competitors in March.

It can be said that Lantu is gradually falling behind in the domestic mid-to-large SUV market with fierce competition. This may also be one of the important reasons why Lei Xin, as the direct person in charge of market brand, sales, innovation ecology and commodity planning, failed to achieve the expected goals in the first quarter and was transferred away.

The growing gap in sales with its rivals has forced Lantu to transfer executives. This may just be a trigger for Lantu’s strategic adjustment, or a microcosm of the continuous struggles of this new energy brand owned by Dongfeng.

Direct sales to franchise,

Is "living for users" a slogan or a real innovation?

According to Zhimiao Automotive, Lantu is currently recruiting franchisees, trying to share its huge marketing costs in the way of franchises, and quickly expand its channels. This seems to be another major adjustment in Lantu’s strategy along with Lei Xin’s transfer.

Lantu Beijing Experience Store

"Dongfeng Motor has no shortage of funds. What it lacks is top-level design, strategic determination and the determination of leaders. The system and mechanism have not been properly managed, so whether it is fuel vehicles or new energy, Dongfeng Motor cannot do it," the media quoted senior Dongfeng officials as saying.

Behind the personnel turmoil and the adjustment of the direct sales model, it seems that Dongfeng has compromised with Lantu in the embarrassing situation of continuous decline in sales, but this cannot help but raise doubts: Lantu, which "lives for users", is an empty slogan or a real innovation?

At the beginning of its establishment, Lantu claimed to "live for users", positioning "to provide users with a high-end smart electric experience with zero anxiety".

However, whether it is the official launch of Lantu or its product performance over the past year, it seems that there is a lack of innovation, but it is mainly based on following the trend.

According to some media, at the July 2020 press conference, Landmap announced that it would adopt an innovative business model and organizational mechanism to address the six major anxieties of users about electric vehicles, but how to innovate the business model and organizational mechanism and how to solve the anxiety of users were not introduced.

And when Ideal, NIO and other new domestic car-making forces are showing their leading three-electric technology and driverless strength to users, Lantu can only shout "user-centered", and use "new car-making strength" to Pengci "new car-making forces" in words and words.

In the product design of Landscape, there is also a lack of sufficient sincerity to impress users. The first car Landscape FREE actually has a very similar design and positioning to the ideal ONE, but Landscape FREE is not only released more than two years later than its competitors, but also has a more obvious gap in various configurations (for example, the ideal ONE body is larger, the pure electric battery life is 48 kilometers longer than Landscape FREE, and the battery is also higher), while the price of the two cars is almost the same (the ideal ONE starts at only 10,000 more expensive than Landscape FREE).

From positioning to product design, Lantu’s sales decline is no accident. Behind it is the clumsiness and rigidity of a state-owned auto giant’s transformation into an automotive technology company. It also appears to be reflected in Lantu’s executive style.

You Zheng, Deputy General Manager of Dongfeng Company and Chairperson of Lantu

According to the data, the senior management team of Lantu and the deputy general manager of Dongfeng Motor in charge of Lantu, You Zheng, all have obvious professional backgrounds in FAW Group or state-owned enterprises.

"From the perspective of the executive team, the first is very traditional, there are no talents from internet companies and technology companies. The second is that most of them are back-office managers and have no experience as traders," said one securities firm analyst. "[Landmap] is more like a technology company on the surface."

And Lei Xin, who had experienced many Dongfeng companies and was a "generalist" in marketing, sales and strategy, was now transferred, which seemed even more surprising. "How does it feel that the person who really does things has become the blame man," an insider lamented to Zhiliao Auto.

At present, the biggest problem facing Landscape is how to increase sales, but if you give up users and innovation for sales, this may be the practice of "losing watermelon and finding sesame seeds".

Zhang Zifeng joins "Yearning Life" to reunite with Peng Yuchang’s "brother and sister"

  The bench hits the long table and greets the visitors in the courtroom; the five flavors cook the grains, and the smoke is life; the sound of the piano is accompanied by laughter, and the old wine and new tea tell the voice of the heart… On April 21, the third season of Hunan Satellite TV’s "Yearning for Life" held a media viewing and sharing meeting in Beijing. The new season will go home warmly at 22:00 every Friday night from April 26, and continue to accompany you for "happy dinner".

  In the ****** ** 2017, "Yearning for Life" met with everyone for the first time. From Miyun, ******* to Tonglu, Hangzhou, the program spanned the north and south, went deep into the countryside, conveyed the beauty ** labor and life, and led the audience to discover the vitality ** the fields contained in peace and tranquility. Feel the joy from sowing to harvesting, and move from the eyes to the heart.

  The new season’s program was still familiar, and some changes had been made at the same time. Liu Xianhua said goodbye temporarily due to work arrangements, and Zhang Zifeng joined the new lineup, together with Huang Lei, He Jiong, and Peng Yuchang, to form the new season’s permanent lineup. This time, the "Mushroom House" was settled in Wengcao Village, Merong Town, Guzhang County, Xiangxi Tujia and Miao Autonomous Prefecture, and the Xiangxi style was coming.

  Hong Tao, deputy director of Hunan Satellite TV Channel, said that "Yearning for Life" was originally a very pioneering new model. This time, it is used to help and observe the perspective of "rural national conditions research". The creative team will definitely use their brainpower to give a demonstration to the country’s rural and national audiences, bringing more meaningful inspiration to everyone.

  "Family with children" is newly born

  Mushroom House welcomes the first resident female guest, Zhang Zifeng, Peng Yuchang, brother and sister meet again

  "New news announced! The new member of the third season of" Yearning for Life "is the returning guest Zhang Zifeng! Zhang Zifeng and Peng Yuchang’brother and sister ‘are gathered together, this combination is so satisfactory! The interaction between the two in the second season is a super real brother and sister relationship. What more interesting interaction will there be this season?"

  The spring breeze blew the memory. Everything seemed to be yesterday, and in the blink of an eye, the story in the mushroom house has entered the third season. Liu Xianhua said goodbye with regret, and Zhang Zifeng, the popular guest of the "mushroom house" in the past, joined the permanent lineup this season, forming a new four-person family together with Huang Lei, He Jiong, and Peng Yuchang.

  At the media viewing, Huang Lei introduced: "In’Little Farewell ‘, she is my daughter; in’Take My Brother Away’, she is Yu Chang’s sister. We are like a complete family. Teacher He and I are two parents respectively. Our eldest, Dahua, has gone to school. Our second child can already be alone and go to the ground to plant rice. Now we have a cute little sister."

  Talking about why Zhang Zifeng was chosen to join, the director-general Wang Zhengyu said with a smile that it was a "passive choice". Because of the previous cooperation, Zhang Zifeng established a natural character relationship with Huang Lei and Peng Yuchang. Zhang Zifeng is both Huang Lei’s "daughter" and Peng Yuchang’s "sister". This time Zhang Zifeng came to visit, Huang Lei thought that Liu Xianhua was not at home, and Peng Yuchang would be deserted as a child, so he proposed to let his sister stay: "The main guests of the first recording are Zhou Bichang, Ye Yiqian, Huang Yali, Ji Minjia and Huang Shujun. Teacher He said that when Huang Yali participated in Supergirl, she was the same age as Zhang Zifeng. From Zhang Zifeng, you can see the expansion of growth and change. "And Zhang Zifeng’s addition obviously increases the expression space of the program invisibly.

  From the guest of the mushroom house to the host, Zhang Zifeng harvested her own insights: "As a young generation, what I often fear most is going to the countryside, because there is no way to look at my phone, but I found that I can actually put it down and really feel life. Find something that is easy to ignore in the city."

  Life always has someone coming, always someone leaving

  "The Longed Life" is a romantic condensation of reality

  When "Yearning for Life" was newly born, it was evaluated as "the origin of domestic slow variety shows". Three men with a dog lived in a quiet and picturesque village, following the code of "self-reliance, hard work; self-sufficiency, warm hospitality", and felt the yearning life in ordinary days.

  Huang Lei lamented, "The original intention of the show is to see the beauty of China’s countryside from a different perspective. When we really go into the countryside, experience the changing seasons, deeply feel the people’s feelings, and experience a more simple and natural way of life, I think it activates the intimacy between the pastoral and nature in our bodies."

  The show has a warm Slogan "We are together, is the life we yearn for". In the past three seasons, the mushroom house has been crowded with people and more and more animal friends. In the first season, Xiao H, who was still a single dog, had Xiao O as his company and gave birth to four treasures: pots, bowls, pans, and pots; the lanterns are getting fatter and fatter, and he still likes to think about life; Tianba’s mother Diandian passed away unfortunately, and he welcomed a new friend, Su Su.

  At the movie sharing session, the edited clips of the zeroth episode of "Yearning for Life", which will be launched at 23:00 on Hunan Satellite TV on April 25th, were broadcast, and the live media were eager to see it. The theme of this issue is "Dear Dahua", which expresses the reluctance and miss of the Mushroom House family for him. Although the environment has changed, the texture of the "Mushroom House" has not changed, and everyone can even see Yang Ying and Ni Ni’s swing, Wang Luodan’s pink piglet… A wall full of photos records every happy and warm memory.

  In Mr. Wang’s view, "The Life of Yearning" conveys the true nature of life everywhere: "Some viewers say that our show has become a zoo, this is where it is romantic, everything is there, but there are also birth, old age, sickness and death. Some people come from afar, some people go out to study, and life is the best show, we just condense it."

Wu Bai sang two songs for a movie before he became famous, which accidentally became a classic

In the history of Chinese-language gangster movies, which one is most like the gangster classic "Once Upon a Time in America"? Is it John To’s "Gunfire" or "The Underworld"? Or John Woo’s "The True Color of Heroes"?

If you want to talk about the character setting and growth experience, the master director Hou Hsiao-hsien, directed by Xu Xiaoming, the Taiwanese film "Youth, Peace!" The charm and context can be called the Chinese version of "American Past"!

The latest good news is that this movie, which is "legendary" to many fans, is finally going to be digitally restored and re-released. This should be a big event worth telling among Chinese fans!

This film, released in 1992, was produced by Hou Hsiao-hsien and produced by Zhang Huakun, so almost all the actors in the film were related to Hou Hsiao-hsien.

Starring as Big Brother Gao Jie, Hou Hsiao Xian’s royal actor, he was born with a magical power to play the underworld big brother. Gao Jie was only 34 years old at the time.

The actress Wei Xiaohui made her mark in the Taiwanese film industry from this film, and then starred in Hou Hsiao-hsien’s "Good Men and Good Women" and "South Country, Goodbye South Country", but after her role in "Flowers on the Sea", she stopped being an actress.

One of the male protagonists, Yan Zhengguo, Hou Xiaoxian’s royal child star, turned 18 after the film was filmed, but disappeared from the film industry.

It turned out that Yan Zhengguo later fell into drug abuse and committed a felony and was sentenced to 15 years in prison. After his release from prison, he reformed, re-entered the film industry as an actor, and became a director with a box office of over 100 million in 2018 with "Corner 2: The King Rises Again".

And Big Brother Gao Jie happens to be an important figure in the universe of "Corner Head".

"Young Man, Calm Down!" was the last film of actor Tan Zhigang’s life, and he was only 17 when he made it.

Speaking of Tan Zhigang, it really makes people feel sorry.

At the age of 13, when "Guling Street Youth Murder" recruited young actors, Tan Zhigang, who had experience in children’s programming on TV, went to audition for the role of Kitten King. Yang Dechang preferred him to play Kitten King. But the preparation period for the movie was too long, so Tan Zhigang went to shoot other movies first.

"Middle School Girls"

The winter vacation is long enough.

At the age of 15, his family was going to take Tan Zhigang to immigrate to the United States, but he still thought about "Guling Street", so he stayed in Taiwan to shoot "Guling Street" and run a karaoke bar. When he came to Yang Dechang again, because it had been more than two years and he had grown a lot taller, Yang Dechang had to replace Wang Qizan to play Kitten King, and Tan Zhigang played another very important role – Pony.

Tan Zhigang performed with Zhang Zhen that year.

In 1991, Hou Hsiao-hsien’s production of "Youth, Peace!" was looking for actors. Hou Hsiao-hsien and director Xu Xiaoming met Tan Zhigang with a mixed-race face at the test film of "Guling Street", and customized the role of "Youth, Peace!" for Tan Zhigang "Adou Zai".

Tan Zhigang and Aunt Chen Shufang played opposite each other in "Youth, Peace!" at that time, Aunt Shufang was only in her early 50s.

Chen Shufang became a box office actress in Taiwan last year at the age of more than 80 with "Lonely Flavor" and "Dear Tenant". "Lonely Flavor" is the box office champion in Taiwan.

In 1992, "Youth, Peace!" was released, and Tan Zhigang was about to leave for the United States. However, "Youth, Peace!" was planning a sequel, and Tan Zhigang stayed in Taiwan to wait for the filming to start. On September 4, 1993, Tan Zhigang and his friends went camping in the mountains and encountered a car with a flat tire. Tan Zhigang and his friend Liu Zhimin drove a car down the mountain to ask for help, but when they turned the corner, the car fell into a 100-meter deep valley. Tan Zhigang died on the spot. When he died, he was just 18 years old and a month old.

If there are so many "ifs" in the world, what would happen if Tan Zhigang didn’t die and went to the United States to study movies?

Unfortunately, there are not so many ifs in the world. The restoration of "Young Man, Peace!" is the best memorial to Tan Zhigang.

In addition to the movie classic, the original sound of the music is also a milestone. It is the first film in Taiwan to use rock music as the soundtrack of the whole film.

That year, 24-year-old Wu Junlin (Wu Bai) sang the theme song of the same name and "Lighting Cigarettes" in "Youth, Peace!"

This is Wu Bai’s first time in the original sound of the film, even before his first solo album "Falling in love with others is a happy thing".

Wu Bai was also invited to participate in the ceremony of the restoration and launch of "Youth, Peace!".

"Youth, Peace!" is also the first film that the famous Taiwanese film composer Lin Qiang collaborated with Hou Hsiao-hsien, even a year earlier than his first appearance in Hou Hsiao-hsien’s film "Dream Life".

Lin Qiang sang three songs in the original soundtrack, including "The Silent Place" with Hou Xiaoxian. This song composed by Wu Bai later became a famous song when Wu Bai took it and sang it.

Lin Qiang’s first album "Going Forward" in 1990 is a landmark work in the history of Hokkien rock.

Lin Qiang met Hou Xiaoxian, who came to visit the class, when he was shooting the MV of the "Go Forward" album. The two hit it off and began their cooperation for many years.

It is well known that director Hou Hsiao-hsien can sing two voices, so in "Young Man, Peace!" he also sang a song "Dream Man" by himself.

There is also a band called Baboo in the original sound, which is composed of Lin Weizhe, Li Xinyun, Li Shouxin and Jin Muyi.

Lin later became a famous rock producer and music company owner (manager). These days, Wu Qingfeng’s choking incident is caused by Lin Weizhe and Wu Qingfeng’s copyright lawsuit (Qingfeng finally won, and he can finally breathe a sigh of relief). Li Xinyun later became a pop music and film and television soundtrack, and was the winner of the Golden Melody Award and the Golden Horse Award. Li Shouxin is now the top drummer of Chinese pop music, especially jazz drums. Bass player Jin Muyi is from Japan, and later became active in the Chinese pop music circle. He and Fan Xiaoxuan Zhou Junwei formed the Fu Lushou group.

"Youth, Peace!" is the first feature-length work directed by Xu Xiaoming, who also made "Last Winter" in 1995, starring Wei Xiaohui and Xi Xiang. This Xu Xiaoming is not the Hong Kong director Xu Xiaoming.

In 1997, Director Xu Xiaoming’s "Looking Home" won several international awards.

Xu Xiaoming has since supervised the production of a number of well-known Chinese-language films, such as "Seventeen-Year-Old Bike," "Love You and Love Me," "Blue Door," and "Love in May," starring Liu Yifei and Chen Bolin in 2004, is his most recent feature film.

After "Love in May", Xu Xiaoming worked in films in mainland China, and was the producer of several Chinese business cards, such as "Second Brother", "Court on Horseback", "Rizhao Chongqing", "My Tang Dynasty Brothers", "Summer Unspeakable" and so on. In the 2020 hit documentary "Stick! Youth", Xu Xiaoming served as the editing director of the film together with Liao Qingsong and Zhou Qiang.

"Young Man, Peace!" was produced by Mr. Zhang Huakun, known as "Brother Kun," who was also the producer of Hou Hsiao-hsien’s early and mid-term films, including the most important and best-known "Sad City," "Childhood Past," "People from the Air Cabinet," "Love the Wind and Dust." Zhang Huakun died in December 2020 at the age of 67.

Zhang Huakun discovered and led Gao Jie to debut from "Daughter of the Nile".

Looking forward to the early restoration of this movie!

When the end is already decided, what is the point of our actions?

Chloe Benjamin’s novel "The Immortal" tells a story that begins with a suspenseful setting: four young children who accidentally receive a witch’s prophecy and learn the exact date of their future death, thereby altering each of their life choices. It is a common topic of discussion – is there still room for our free will when the outcome is already decided?
Nowadays, in order to increase the freedom of play, many games will set up many dialogue and behavior options, and every choice of the player may affect the direction and ending of the following plot. In order to experience different plots, many players will play with other behavior choices after clearing the level, and finally after the first week, the second week, or even the third week, experience all the life possibilities of the game protagonist, or play a perfect ending. In some games with relatively delicate plot settings, this game mode allows you to fully experience what is called the "butterfly effect" in life. For example, in "Life is Strange", even a detail the size of a ball of waste paper will have a huge impact in the later stage of the game. On the other hand, the limitations of the game itself also make us understand that no matter how rich and free choices we make, the final outcome cannot be separated from the end point provided by the game developers. It seems that a game is like a simple beta version of life. But even crueler than the game is that we cannot experience the second or third week of life, yet every subtle choice we make does have unpredictable effects in reality, and no matter what life choices we make, we cannot escape the end of life: death. Many times, in reality, because death exists in unknown ways and restricts some of our behavior, we will not rush into the battlefield with weapons as easily as in the game, or to drive a motorcycle on the roof and fly across the road. We know that these actions are likely to lead to final results. But if we already know the exact moment of the end of death, then these constraints may be lifted by crazy thoughts.
The American writer Chloe Benjamin tried to use the novel "The Eternal" to tell such a story about fate and choice. This kind of story has been quite extensive in ancient Greek tragedies, but the difference is that in ancient Greek tragedies, the oracle of fate is relatively vague, it hides a lot of necessary information. For example, Oedipus received the oracle that he would kill his father and marry his mother, but did not know that the parents he thought were not his biological parents. "The Eternal" as a modern novel makes the prophecy more clear.
The novel begins in 1969 – a sensitive year for human civilization, and one that reflects the author’s ambitions. The main characters in the story are four siblings in the family, Varia, the oldest, Daniel, the second, Clara, who is nine, and Simon, the youngest. After several children learn that a mysterious witch lives in Hearst Street and can predict the exact date of each person’s death, they decide to secretly try it, which inadvertently changes their lives. It also makes us wonder how death – as a necessary consequence of life – affects the course of life.

If I die tomorrow
The four siblings who receive the death prophecy present four different ways of facing life – in this novel, the difference is mainly determined by the length of the rest of their lives. The most interesting of these are Simon and Daniel.
Simon, the youngest, seemed to have his soul replaced on the way home after hearing the prophecy from the witch. Simon, who was once quiet, contradicted his family at the dinner table that night and shouted "I’m happy!", even though "he was a little uncomfortable playing this role". Because of the four siblings, Simon was the youngest, but the date of death was the latest – he could only live to 20 years old. Although several children came home and said that the witch was pure nonsense, the death prophecy still affected their survival to varying degrees.
Realizing that he only had thirteen years left to live, Simon suddenly underwent a personality change. In short, he no longer tolerated it. He used to worry that his parents would find out that he was actually gay. He knew that his brothers and sisters were going away and he needed to stay to take care of his parents and the family business. But in the face of his imminent death, Simon felt that he urgently needed to burst out of his true self in the remaining life. Therefore, he chose a long journey away from home similar to running away, and put all the concerns mentioned before behind him.
"Bucket List" stills.
Simon started his "bucket list" in San Francisco. He danced in nightclubs, studied at the San Francisco Ballet Academy, slept with other men, "In New York, he would live for them, but in San Francisco, he could live for himself. And, though he didn’t want to think about it, even though he had been pathologically avoiding the topic, he now allowed himself to think about it: What if the woman on Hearst Street was right? This thought changed the color of his life. It made everything urgent, sparkling, and precious." Eventually, after a few years of this life in San Francisco, Simon contracted AIDS, which had not been named and recognized at that time, due to promiscuity, and died on the date predicted by the witch.
Daniel, the second brother, was the third of the four to die. After the death of Simon and Clara’s relatives, Daniel was extremely remorseful and hated for the prophecy given by the witch of the year, and he must find the witch in Hearst Street. With the cooperation of a police friend, Daniel found the witch’s house and asked her if she had predicted that today was the witch’s own death. The police friend who arrived in time only wanted to shoot the thigh to stop Daniel from killing the witch. Unexpectedly, the shot through the thigh shattered the aorta in the leg, causing Daniel to bleed to death. Therefore, Daniel also died on the day the witch predicted.
Stills from the movie "Bucket List".
Daniel’s death, by contrast, is more like an oracle in an ancient Greek tragedy. Daniel, 48, did not completely forget his death prophecy. He had a regular medical examination, and each time the result proved that he was in good health – perhaps it was this that gave him overconfidence. He let go of almost all his vigilance until the night of the death prophecy date. He could hardly imagine any sudden accident that could take his life, but in the end he died in an even more unexpected situation.
Logically, both Simon and Daniel’s deaths were avoidable, but it seems that both of them ran to their own deaths more accurately in different ways of avoiding death. Simon’s choice was a responsive escape, and the date of death had taken root in his heart. No matter how much he denied it, he actually believed that he had heard the prophecy and was facing an unalterable destiny. He then spent the rest of his life counting down, and in this story, it can be said that if Simon had not run away from home and hung out with gays in San Francisco, he would have probably spent his twenty-first birthday at home unscathed from AIDS. The annual physical examination was similar to his trial process, trying to confirm the failure of the witch’s prophecy. At the same time, in 2006, at the end of Daniel’s chapter, he was also caught in the circle of the death of the first two relatives. He firmly believed that the witch’s prophecy did not come true on the last day of the day, which must mean that it has failed.
Simon finally dies in the convulsion of repeating "I love you" over and over to his lover Robert. He feels that there is nothing wrong with his life. The so-called regrets are left to the logic of fate itself. Unlike the movie "Bucket List" to fulfill the wish of life, Simon’s death is just a prophecy, not as certain as a terminal illness, and his life length is too short compared to the protagonist in the movie. In Simon, we can think of the predicted death date as an encouragement to move away from the image of a good child, to engage with the life experience that he has not dared to practice before, and to encourage a person to accept the death itself. As for Daniel, he has been inquiring about the witch’s residence, trying to find someone to be responsible for the death of his relatives. The most robust person in his body may be the one who is the least afraid to face death in his heart.
Two Ways to Accept Death
The two female characters, Clara and Varia, seem to approach death prophecies in a more natural way than the two men in the family. Clara was also told that she would die at the age of 31. She also went to San Francisco to become a magician, but performed a very dangerous "jaw of life" – but on the night of a performance in 1991, Clara chose to hang herself in her room.
In Clara’s world, "death" not only exists, but also means a real world. She does not resist death, and believes that there are things in this world that can transcend death, such as human souls and consciousness. She often dreams of Simon at night, and she thinks that if she can continue to have this connection with Simon or other deceased people, it means that consciousness can continue to exist even if the body dies, she can transcend boundaries, and death does not exist at all.
Clara’s idea is philosophical. Is there room for us humans to exercise free will when cause and effect have become inevitable? This is a philosophical question that has been debated for decades. In the seventeenth century, mechanism and determinism told almost everyone that everything has cause and effect, including freedom itself, which is part of the law of causation. Later, the philosopher David Hume, in order to overthrow causality, led people into the abyss of agnosticism – everything you see is unreliable. It’s a pity that there is no Humean thinker in the novel "The Eternal" to explain this way of life. Later, Kant and other philosophers began to discuss free will, and the final result was that philosophers succeeded in prying open a hole in the world of determinism and causal logic, proving that in some small crevices, human free will has an independent and free space. Unfortunately, the space for human exercise of free will is more like a powerful placebo most of the time. After all, the behavioral decisions we make out of free will cannot resist the laws of the physical world; the human mind can invent countless ideas that despise and transcend death, but death will come in time.
Stills from the movie "Bucket List".
Clara is such a person who stares at death. She thinks she is capable of being a bridge – crossing the living and the dead to become an "immortal". She completes what she calls the task of "communicating with the dead" in Scrabble with Simon, her star performance becomes a memory for the audience, and finally she chooses to commit suicide in the days predicted by the witches. Of the four siblings, Clara is the only one to enter death by freely choosing death.
In contrast, Varia, the eldest sister who lived to the end, was more like a person who completely ignored death. This may be related to the date she was predicted to live to 88 years old, and she looks no different from a normal person. She doesn’t need to worry about the arrival of death, she just needs to make her own life rhythm and plan, and wait quietly for that day to come. Unlike a normal person, she has one (or three) more opportunities to stare at death.
Chloe Benjamin.
"Varia and her siblings had a choice, an opportunity for self-reflection. They wanted to measure time, they wanted to plan and control time. But as they chased the future, they actually got closer to that woman’s prophecy."
Chloe Benjamin’s novel "The Immortal" involves a series of major events such as the AIDS crisis, 9/11, and racial issues in the narrative span of several decades, but these issues are all dissolved in the bond of four siblings. To his credit, he does not let death fail in the face of different attitudes towards life, but maintains the suspense element of the witch’s death prophecy. Under this premise, "The Immortal" offers us the opportunity to reflect on our attitude towards life – what matters is not whether our choices can change the outcome of life, what matters is that our choices will change the course of our journey towards the outcome, and that all choices have a price, and the acceptance of the price is often the part of the real value difference in different people’s hearts that is often overlooked.
