This is a good book. I haven't read a book with such depth and breadth in several years. The author transformed an idealist into a modern person who combines reality and ideals through the erosion and rituals of real society. To be honest, I have benefited a lot. I have changed some deep-rooted things in my mind and I have been taught! ! ! Highly recommend readers to read it. . . .
Watching it made me feel heavy. From an unknown person to a director, from someone who "told the truth" was frozen to "enlightenment", this process was so painful that I didn't want to watch it a second time. However, thankfully, human nature has not been wiped out, conscience has not been forgotten, the homeland, the homeland accommodates everything. "Water of the Canglang" is as its name suggests. The verbosity reveals the harshness of the world and the temptation of money... A good book📖
This book is so real. The psychological description of Chi Dawei is meticulous and meticulous. Chi Dawei's final transformation can be said to be unexpected and reasonable. While watching, I struggled with Chi Dawei's emotions. Watching him transform from a young man with a literary spirit to a "politician" little by little, I felt unfair, sad, and indignant. My inner feelings were too complicated. Another outstanding feature of this book is that he has a lot of analysis on human nature, people's hearts, social environment, etc. It may feel boring to read, but if you think about it carefully, you will find that those analyzes are very profound and penetrating, and they completely portray a contemporary Luotuo Xiangzi! I really admire the author's insight into the world and his ability to express himself. This book is still very worth reading! ! !
A must-read for ordinary people to understand society.
The evil of human nature is as deep as Jiuyou! The goodness of human nature shines in Kyushu! It profoundly reveals the helplessness and reality of people being unable to control themselves in the social network! From a certain perspective, it explains the limitations and unity of the profound connection between social systems and human nature! Ideal and reality are always contradictory and entangled! In today's materialized world, it is even more sharp and profound! Canglang water! Why wash away the dirt of human nature?
The author has strong social and historical experience and a deep understanding of human nature
"The water in Canglang is clear, and I can wash my tassel; the water in Canglang is turbid, and I can wash my feet." "Canglang Song" has a profound philosophy of life. The novel "The Water of the Canglang" inherits its philosophical implications. The human heart is the clear water of the Canglang. People are pretentious and self-reliant, and they cannot tolerate worldly tricks such as using small tricks. However, reality requires the use of inner thoughts to achieve some desired goals. This is the turbidity of the water of the Canglang in reality, and it is also the new song of "Song of the Canglang" in contemporary life.
It is a very good book and deserves to be an award-winning work. The so-called character flowing in the blood of birth cannot withstand the rough waves of realism in life. Is it necessary to hang your head high when going down the river? Or is it just following the trend after being enlightened and enlightened? Everything is always between gains and losses, just like energy always follows the law of conservation. If you get the enjoyment you want in real life, you will lose the beauty you really don't want to lose, and vice versa! So what is right and wrong? Maybe Minister David himself is the answer! But I still can't help but ask, is it necessarily correct?
This book is really good. As an official novel, it focuses on the inner growth of the characters. The sense of ownership is very good. Just like what the seniors said before, you know not what you hear and see, but what you can do. Chi Dawei knows a lot of things in his heart, from idealism to realism, mixed with ideals, from self-respect and nobleness to reality forced by reality, experience After many blows, he thought and reflected again and again. He could say things he couldn't say, and did things he couldn't do. From asking for fortune-telling in temples to learning to say beautiful words and do beautiful things, he has grown up. He has grown so solidly that he can punch a hole in the wall. There are his reflections, the help of his noble people, his accumulated expertise, his virtuous wife, etc. It is worth watching again and again.
It's so well written and has so much depth. Chi Dawei tells us what conditions an ordinary person needs to achieve success in the worldly sense: a stable and virtuous wife in the family, a mentor who can help him in his career, personal understanding in the workplace, opportunities that come unexpectedly in life, and the most important thing is to grasp the subtle human nature, be worldly but not too worldly, be sentimental but ruthless, no matter how smooth you are, you have to stand in line, no matter how noble you are, you must be merciful, and the water in the Canglang River is clear enough to carry your tassel. The water in Canglang is turbid, and I can wash my feet. After reading it, I looked at the title of the book "Water of the Canglang", and it was like a snake with a gray line running thousands of miles away.
It is worth reading. The protagonist's name is Chi Dawei, which means "late to achieve great results". From Chi Dawei - Xiaochi - Dawei - Section Chief Chi - Director Chi - Deputy Director Chi - Director Chi, the protagonist gradually grows into the person he hated in the past, and finally "killed" his past self. The author's description of the protagonist's inner struggle and thoughts about each situation is very realistic, picturesque, gripping, and very resonant. So why not an individual? From being ambitious and high-spirited when he first entered the society, he gradually turned into a person who was able to follow the yin and yang, observe words and emotions, and be all-rounded. He realized the reversal of black and white in society, and understood the sophistication of human relationships in interpersonal relationships. No matter what color the cloth came out of the big dyeing vat, why wouldn't it be dyed? I wish I could just remember what color cloth I started with. May you all encourage me. 2025.11.5 Evening Notes
This book is really wonderful. The inner activities of the characters are described so vividly that I feel like it is a true reflection of myself. I suddenly see a lot of facts clearly and understand the meaning of reading. It can be said that I regret not reading this book earlier, but it is the best and most suitable now. In the early years, I could only read other people's stories. In the past years, I only had endless emotions.
This is the rule of history and the trend. Chi Dawei has no choice. People are in the world, and when they enter this circle, they can't help themselves. The original intention can never withstand the everlasting infiltration. There is no choice in life, we have no choice. We cannot be saints, we can only be common people. This is true for everyone. Confucius is dead and the saint is dead. In this era, the rich and powerful are the fathers! Who cares whether you have morals or not? Money and power are awesome, and the theory of gentleman and villain falls apart. We are all entering a pessimistic ending, repeating the cycle. This is the end of life and history.
The in-depth description of a man's transformation from looking down on the bad habits of officialdom to being well versed in the ways of being an official, from resisting to compromising, to being able to handle everything with ease, and all the forced compromises made me understand a lot of things. The author wrote it very well!
The writing is very good, and it injects another possibility into my world view. Who is not the Chi Dawei of the past? It is really difficult to start a career. Everyone is defending their own interests, as if no one is right. There is no clear boundary between right and wrong. The collision between ideals and reality, the final result is to compromise with the world. The good thing is that Chi Dawei also has a conscience. I think this cannot be lost.
What this book writes is the reality of the world. It is like a powerful medicine for young people who have just entered the workplace and kind and simple people, and it directly touches the soul!
A very good book. Saw it 20 years ago. But I didn't quite understand it. Re-read this book now. A sudden realization. Alas, I have had many years of troubles. In fact, it is no different from this Chi Dawei.
This novel is very worth reading [like]. The author dissects human nature so brilliantly in the book, which is worth recalling and reflecting on [thinking]. Classics are classics that will not change due to time.
The original intention will not change, but the years will not change. I read it for the first time in 2008. Today, 14 years later, while I was in hospital for recuperation, I read it again. Maybe after the baptism of time, I can understand more and more the hardships along the way. Come on, I hope to read it again 14 years later and still keep my original intention.
Great, I seem to have seen the tangled and tossing version of myself. The invisible power of today's officialdom makes Chi Dawei, a graduate student, full of righteousness but unable to display it. In the chaotic officialdom, his soul and reality are in life-and-death conflict again and again. I originally listened to the book to help me sleep, but I was so scared all the way that I listened to it for an unnatural hour. Without in-depth environmental experience, it is impossible to write deeply and deeply with delicate emotions. I will read it again after reading it. This is the only book that I was eager to write a review before I finished reading it.
"The water in Canglang is so clear that I can hold my tassel on it. The water in Canglang is turbid, and I can wash my feet. " This sentence can really be said to be used throughout the entire book. It can be said that the growth of the protagonist's life and career story constantly reflects the mental attitude that people have to bend back and adapt to changes in the world of life, just like this "water of changing waves", it depends on how you deal with it! This book truly depicts a person's state of life in the world. In the first and second chapters, he goes from ambitious to helpless and lonely, and then in the third and fourth chapters, he gradually becomes successful but also loses his original belief! Another point is that there are echoes and connections between the beginning and the end of the book. The beginning and the end are guided by his father. From sticking to his true heart to falling into the changing water, the ending scene is difficult for even him to describe. From this book, you can truly understand or learn something about how you should choose and deal with the "changing waters" in front of you in your life and career in the future!
There are really few good-looking novels. The author has worked in the office. The scenes in it are very real, including helplessness, struggle, compromise, and even contempt for oneself. There are many characters with distinctive personalities in it. It is based on Ji Da as the protagonist. It is a modern version of officialdom. From a newly graduated college student to the director of the Department of Health, it tells us about officialdom, the way to survive in the workplace, and the irreversible trend of the times. Otherwise, it can only be photographed on the beach. The story begins with the protagonist's father. After Chi's father spoke a word of justice for others, he was sent to the countryside. Chi Dawei was taught to be a responsible and conscientious person. Chi Dawei, who had just arrived at the Health Research Institute, did indeed do this. He was incompatible with this environment. In today's terms, it was a student's mentality. He felt that public funds should not be used for private purposes, regardless of the life and death of the people, bullying the superiors and the inferiors, and could not stand the insidious villain Ding Xiaohuai, so he... He put forward his opinions at a meeting, but was ostracized by the circle and was transferred to a quiet place. He stayed there for several years, was poor, suffered from everyone's looks, and saw clearly the warmth and warmth of human relationships and the way to survive in officialdom. After experiencing a wave of births and injuries, he made changes. He did not want to be idle all his life. He lowered the noble backbone of a scholar, and also opened the highlight of this book, how to climb to a high position step by step, make progress, and keep making progress. In this process, he saw clearly that only power and money are the most real. Those who have money and the power to do things easily should be treated like the most powerful people. Only those who can decide your promotion now can only be promoted by thinking what they want. Director Ma is the core of the Department of Health, and all words that threaten Director Ma are Report immediately, learned to speak official language and flatter him. I used to look down on Ding Xiaohuai, but now he and Ding Xiaohuai have become the same person, and gradually entered the core of power. I originally thought that becoming the director could do some practical things, but I was still tempted by power, and finally became the same person as Director Ma. The two sentences at the beginning of the book are: The water in the Canglang is clear, so I can wash my tassel; the water in the Canglang is turbid, I can wash my feet, and the wind rises from the end of the green duck. Everyone can choose what kind of person they want to be, whether they choose to be a practical person or a person with conscience. It all depends on their own choice. There is no right or wrong, and no one should look down on anyone else. This book is very real. Most of it punishes evil and promotes good. Justice will eventually come. This book analyzes and tells bloody things. The author likes to use irony. The words at the end of each chapter are meaningful. It always appears in the book. This is human beings. When it comes to human nature, people cannot avoid it. It is very shocking. Readers can take what they want.
Close to life, the protagonist's monologue is true, delicate and unique. As a main line, it drives the ups and downs of the plot. The various characters around it show readers that this is life!
It is a true and very realistic book. The protagonist pretends to be innocent at the beginning and is finally tortured by reality and has to become the most annoying person in the past. The shaking of concepts deep in his heart and the ruthlessness of reality are vividly expressed. Watch it early and benefit from it.
Blessed are those who like to read realistic texts. The book is narrated in the first person and is a very typical and realistic institutional text. The article is critical. From the protagonist's initial obsession with "good people" to his desire for power, it shows common social problems and hits the nail on the head. Comments are only personal opinions on the content of the article and do not represent real-life evaluations. Thank you.
I have read the paper version of this book a long time ago, but I forgot some of the plot in the back, so I read it again. This is one of the most classic works of the same type. The author's analysis of human nature and the officialdom and workplace at that time was extremely profound. It is really difficult for a person to maintain his original intention and principles after entering the society. He is involuntarily dragged into the struggle for fame and fortune by various reasons. Chi Dawei persisted for seven or eight years, which is already very rare. In real life, there are many leaders like Director Ma, and there are also many losers like Ding Xiaohuai. There are not many people like Chi Dawei who can deal with them until the end and win. Chi Dawei's victory represents the victory of justice and conscience. Although Chi Dawei has also changed, he still maintains his conscience. His appearance on the stage indicates that his side of the world has a conscience. This is hope. Of course, the current era has changed a lot from the past. The workplace rules for young people in the Internet era are also changing, and they are all developing in a fair and just direction. Reading this book can help people gain a lot of nourishment in terms of emotional intelligence, and it is worth reading carefully.
A book that directly touches the soul. Following the protagonist step by step, it seems that something has entered my heart, knocking it every time. Perhaps when faced with the analysis of human nature, it is difficult for the soul to remain indifferent. When I was immersed in the book, sometimes I felt that living people had been turned into empty shells named positions. The names were codes for different levels. The more spiritually exiled, the more equipment was upgraded, and the faster monsters were defeated, until the spirit was lost and it became a master. Usually people refer to the process of upgrading and killing monsters as spiritual awakening or growth. In fact, if you put aside your emotions and put yourself in someone else's shoes, everyone will be the same if your position changes. Having been in the world for a long time, I have gained many identities and positions, and all kinds of situations arise where I have no choice but to express myself without sincerity. Come and play in the human world, it's all here anyway, whether you are a spiritual wanderer or a realist self-interested person, you have the final say how you want to play, just be happy.
It is profound and breaks the illusion about people and the world. It was so profound, I felt very heavy after reading it.
By chance, I was lucky enough to read the classic "Water of the Canglang". When I first read this book, I had the feeling of "subverting the three views". I felt that "Xiao Chi" and "Lao Chi" are the way to be an official and the way to be a human being. After reading carefully, I found that the description is so true, and I understood that Director Ma and Director Chi really have "the butt determines the head." Look at the problem from another angle, and you will suddenly become enlightened!
It is a very classic book. I saw this book on the recommended list of must-read books for civil servants on Douyin. While waiting for admission, I downloaded the book to kill time when I had nothing to do. Unexpectedly, the more I read, the deeper my feelings became. Based on my two years of experience in three branches and one support agency in the Human Resources and Social Security Bureau of the Eighth Division of the Corps, I have a clearer view of today's society: getting is king.
