Why is Three Monks regarded as a joke when it is obviously meaningful?

In the history of animated films in China, there is such a unique film, with only nine creative teams and only 20 minutes of animation time, but it won the honor of best art film in the first Chinese film Golden Rooster Award. After 40 years, 80,000 people scored 8.8 points on the Douban scoring system. The name of this animated short film is Three Monks.

Three Monks is an animated short film released by 1980. Two years later, it was introduced to West Germany. This film can rush out of the country and be shown in West Germany, which requires high quality. It also shows that the world spoke highly of this film at that time.

0 1 has a clear and profound meaning, but it has been regarded as a joke by countless people.

In China, most people have heard the story of three monks, but it is very clear and profound, but countless people regard it as a joke, because too many people actually don't understand it at all. Because the story of three monks is so representative, even if it is passed down from mouth to mouth, everyone's understanding of it stops at this joke: one monk carries water, two monks carry water, and three monks have no water to drink, no water to drink.

Because from the cognitive point of view, the problem of three monks carrying water, how to be fair, is indeed a common problem for the people's cognition at that time? Question? .

When The Three Monks was released in China, it was still a child born after 70, but not born after 80. There is nothing to talk about after 90, and it is even out of reach after 00.

The success of the story of "Three Monks" proves that the road is simple.

I didn't understand when I was a child, but I didn't expect to cry when I grew up. Obviously, it is an animated short film with only 20 minutes, and the picture quality is also the roughest handicraft. There is not a line in the whole film. This configuration is simply shabby compared with the animated film "Make a scene in Heaven" which was born 19 years earlier than it.

But "Three Monks" turned the tide and won the honor of best art film. What did it prove again? The road to Jane? The truth.

The success of "Three Monks" is definitely more than an exquisite and just-right soundtrack. After 40 years, I can still appreciate the elegance of Chinese classical music, which really makes people cry. Because there are no lines, the expression can't be very delicate, so the soundtrack plays a role in setting off the emotions of the characters and rendering the story.

A 20-minute short film. Now, the barrage is full of music and BGM comments. Even after 40 years, I was still moved by the score level at that time, from which I can get a glimpse of the subtleties of Chinese classical music.

The key to the success of the three monks is the story. I didn't understand it when I was a child, but I watched the crying story when I grew up. This untimely story can only be understood by the upper-class intellectuals and artists at that time.

I would like to dedicate this wonderful film "Three Monks" with a history of 40 years to nine old artists who have devoted their blood and efforts to this film.

Three red, yellow and blue monks symbolize three kinds of people.

There are three monks in the short film. The young monk wears a red robe, which symbolizes liveliness and intelligence. Many plot transitions in the film were completed by young monks. For example, after the monk came, the young monk took the initiative to signal the monk to fetch water. When stealing pancakes at night, all three monks choked, and the young monk was the first to fight for the water in the Guanyin bottle.

Monks wear blue robes, symbolizing calm and determination. In the film, the mouse pushes down the candle, and after the temple is lit, the monk is the first to rush out of the temple with a bucket.

The fat monk wears a yellow robe, which symbolizes simplicity and slowness. After arriving at the temple, the fat monk finished the water in the water tank and began to lie down and sleep.

Red, yellow and blue colors suggest the theme.

Red, yellow and blue are three primary colors, which cannot be synthesized by other colors, and all the colors seen in this world can be formed by arbitrary fusion of red, yellow and blue.

Red, yellow and blue are used in the short film, which vividly reflects the personality characteristics of the three monks and also hints at the theme. As long as they cooperate sincerely, they can make their lives colorful.

At the end of the short film, the three monks reached the water's edge from the mountain very easily through cooperation. The fat monk is strong and is responsible for filling barrels by the river. The young monk was exhausted and was responsible for turning the crown block to pull the bucket to the top of the mountain. Monks are responsible for transporting water to temples. The cooperation of three monks solved the problem that three people had no water to drink.

Divide the difficult tasks into 1/3 and assign them to everyone's head. It seems that everyone only did 1/3, but together, they easily completed the task of drawing water.

In today's world, cooperation is indispensable, and cooperation can achieve a win-win situation.

Our colorful world has long been inseparable from the cooperation between people. Without cooperation, the courier company cannot operate; Without cooperation, the telecommunications network will collapse; Without cooperation, all electronic products will not be produced; Without cooperation, our car will become a pile of garbage because there is no gasoline.

The progress of the whole world is inseparable from cooperation, and the operation of the whole world is inseparable from cooperation. Cooperation can not only achieve a win-win situation, but also ensure the most basic maintenance of the orderly operation of society.

Interestingly, if the mouse hadn't knocked over the candle and caused the fire, I'm afraid all three monks would have died of thirst in the temple and couldn't think of any reason to cooperate. Finally, the progress in the way of drawing water is only the technological progress after learning the lesson.

Expose the selfish mentality in human nature and sublimate the theme of win-win cooperation.

The problem of three monks without water is not a philosophical problem, nor a mathematical problem, nor is it a mirror of human laziness. In the final analysis, what the short film wants to expose is the selfish mentality hidden in human nature.

To discuss the theme of this film, we have to mention the background of the work: in the 1980s, China just opened its doors, so many new things flooded into China, and the whole country was eager to embrace the world environment. The emergence of a large number of new things and new economies has prompted people to unite sincerely and strive for the same interests. And the benefits of win-win cooperation are also huge. More and more factories have been built, many people have joined the upsurge of migrant workers, and the cooperation between people has become more and more close and inseparable.

In the 1980s, any film and television works had certain guiding and scientific and educational significance. After uncovering the comic humor of the three monks and severely criticizing the egoistic mentality, at the end of the short film, the social values of win-win cooperation are reflected.

In today's society, after experiencing multiple close cooperation between people, this colorful and vibrant society has been created, and the happiness index has far exceeded the past. If you want to shop, you only need to place an order with one click online; If you want to contact relatives and friends, just dial the phone; If you want to travel far, there are too many convenient means of transportation to choose from. Behind all this orderly operation, it is inseparable from the close cooperation between people.

For example, the young monk in the short film is smart, but he has the least strength. Although Gao monk is calm, his strength alone is limited. The fat monk is simple and honest, but he doesn't know how to be flexible when things happen. Each of them has his own shortcomings, but together, they can make up for each other well. Therefore, only by knowing and being good at cooperation can we win.
