The ideal economy of "extreme Challenge" and "yearning Life"

DaDa / tr. by Phil Newell)

Do you kids like to watch "extreme Challenge" and "yearning for Life"? These variety shows not only have very funny stars, but also always tell us some truth, so that we unwittingly understand the "ideal economic life" in laughter! Want to see what resonates with the urinal weaver?

Extreme Challenge

The fourth season of Star Interactive motivational experience Program "extreme Challenge" is being broadcast on Oriental Satellite TV. In the latest episode, members of the "extreme Challenge Group" will conduct a field mission with the theme of "yearning Life" in Anji, Huzhou, Zhejiang Province (speaking of Anji, all I know is "Anji White Tea"). The members have put on miners' hats as miners, and they will compete for the "mineral" represented by Gold and Silver Apple through layers of checkpoints, so as to gain the right to enter the villa to enjoy a "good life", and the "think tank" will also participate in it. Fight for the good life together!

In this program, we can see that the program group has built an ecological house of "ecosystem" style. Finally, when the men live in the house, everyone has a certain amount of carbon emissions, and they need to be more careful when they enter the ecological house. Once more appliances are turned on and the indoor carbon emissions exceed the standard, they will be attacked by acid rain and haze, and even Huang Lei will not dare to cook. Under the influence of "haze", men can only save themselves by planting trees. After realizing the importance of protecting the environment, they can't help sighing that "green water and green mountains are golden mountains and silver mountains". After this mission, the "extreme Troupe" will use its own practical actions to explain to people the importance of the environment in human development, and hopes to use its own strength to appeal to more people to join the cause of environmental protection.

"yearning for life"

The large-scale life service documentary "the Life of yearning", jointly launched by Hunan Satellite TV and Hexin Media, has been broadcast in the second season. Huang Lei, he Jun, Liu Xianhua, Peng Yuchang, and different guests who will come in each episode live in the countryside. They have their own yard, vegetable fields, fish ponds, and three or two friends. They just do farm work, chat with friends and cook every day. Such a slow life is just like what Mr. he wrote in the song "the Color of the wooden House" at the beginning: I need a piece of land, a little more remote, and I can do whatever I want. Specifically, I want an outdoor place for my friends, where people don't have to worry about work, but need to work closely with each other and hone their new skills.

In fact, there is a touching story behind the book the Color of the wooden House. In 2009, Zach Klein, a young American entrepreneur and founder of Vimeo, bought a piece of land in the mountains on the outskirts of New York City, built several wooden cabins with friends and lived together. His website "the Color of the Cabin" came into being. Here, people from all over the world share more than 12000 photos and building stories of cabins, of which 200 beautiful photos and 10 moving stories make up the Color of the wooden House. Among the 200 wooden cabin landscapes around the world, there are deep mountains, deserts, jungles, rivers and seas, high cliffs and earth slopes. They tell you that people can live comfortably wherever they like as long as they like.

Ideal economic life

When we saw the ecological house that finally collapsed in the extreme Challenge, when we realized that we human beings had to plant trees and protect the ecological environment in order to survive, I could not help feeling that this was fortunately only a fake, but I could not help but fear later. Will this be the future of our mankind?

See the simple mushroom house in the "yearning Life", the lovely animals, the kind people, the simple but warm life, maybe this is the ideal life that we human beings have to pursue all our lives. The economy, the world to help the people, to support themselves, to support their families. Perhaps this is the highest pursuit of our life, a family of two three meals four seasons, simple, happy!

After reading the editor's interpretation of these two variety arts, do you find it more in-depth? Do you have a more perceptual understanding of the ideal economy? You might as well discuss it.
