About This Novel

"Madmen have their own taste for madmen, which is not enough for outsiders." This book is the original novel of the classic movie "Forrest Gump". Forrest Gump is a retard and idiot in the eyes of ordinary people, but his kind and simple nature, coupled with his extraordinary talent, made him a college football star, a Vietnam War hero, a world-class table tennis player, a wrestler, a chess master and a business tycoon. He was interviewed and awarded by two American presidents, visited China, and even accidentally discovered the truth about the Watergate Incident. Forrest Gump's "vigorous" legendary life, through Forrest Gump's eyes, allows us to see the complexity and vulgarity of the world, and feel the value of sincerity in human nature.

If you are different from most people, you will be laughed at and looked down upon by others. How much true love does exist in the world? When you are in trouble, the person who really helps you is your best friend.

I think Forrest Gump is less sentimental than us, and more of a return to nature. He is not an idiot, he is just doing what he thinks is right. Most of us are neither Forrest Gump nor Dan, but Jenny is as realistic as her.

So, apart from anything else, I think: I can always look back on the past and say to myself, at least my life was not boring. Frost Gan

Doing the right thing + idiotic persistence = Forrest Gump's success.

Doing the right thing + idiotic persistence = Forrest Gump's success. I found that the adapted movie of the same name is far more exciting than the original work. I really admire director Robert. He took the essence and inspired people's minds. He deserves to be the best director at the Oscar!

It's not that he's stupid, but he's too smart and seems abnormal.

Everyone has the right to choose. It is not just because they are different from the majority of choices that they will be regarded as idiots. This will make those people regret and envy.

Everyone has a dream, and there are a few like Forrest Gump who have been pursuing the path of shrimp farming since the Vietnam War.

Although the content of this book is not consistent with the real person, the Forrest Gump in the book is more extraordinary than the real person. The incidents in the book seem more legendary to us. Although Forrest Gump is a "fool", he has incredible talent and has done incredible things. At the end of the story, he also found a peaceful life that made him happy. The only regret is that he could not stay with his lover forever. Maybe this is the shortcoming of a perfect life, after all, it is not perfect. I think that the reason why Forrest Gump has such achievements is not entirely due to his talent. More importantly, although he lacks many normal people's ability to deal with things, he has an optimistic spirit, has hope and can see his true happiness in the flashy life.

Forrest Gump, no matter what he does, he has no distracting thoughts in his heart, not for personal gain, just because he wants to do it. This may be the reason why he is so stupid but more successful than anyone else.
