The influence of San Mao's Wandering Tale on later generations
This cartoon mainly tells the bitter experience of the orphan San Mao. He has no home, no relatives, no home, no food and clothing, and only vagrants with the same fate care about him and give him warmth. The era that Sanmao lived in has become a thing of the past, but it is an answer sheet that everyone must complete to understand the past and history. Because understanding the past and history can make the pace of growth more calm and solid, and can make the vision broader and the mind broader.
In the process of a person's growth, besides fresh air and bright sunshine, we need to think calmly, and be moved and shocked by our hearts, which we can all feel when reading Sanmao. Sanmao has been forever deposited in the memory of countless people's growth. I believe that in the years to come, Sanmao will still bring us many precious things, let us experience suffering and misfortune, and learn to sympathize, care and cherish.
