The Queen’s Gambit, which was recently released on Netflix, was discussed in a hot topic by Anya. Anya Taylor-Joy plays the heroine Bets. Beth Harmon, a girl who has been very talented in the chess field since childhood, has a plot that can easily break out of the game from the beginning, and in the middle, Beth Harmon's self-loss collapse, and how Beth Harmon finally gets out of setbacks and regains his strength to become the chess king.
Recalling Betel's life, we can find that in her life, there are two women who have affected her the most, and at the same time, they are her biological mother and the later mother who has raised her. The former constructs the world view of Betel's childhood, while the latter has a lot of impact on Betel's behavior after adulthood.
Since his biological mother passed away from the car, Betel still often remembered what she said at some moments. In order not to keep thinking about her mother's pain, Betel began to take children's town prescriptions. After taking the medicine, Betel found that this seemed helpful. Her technique of clearing chess in the brain also led to her future drug development; after being nurtured, she discovered that her mother's habit of numbing herself to face the tragedy of losing her husband through alcohol. This made her habit of relying on alcohol to try to relieve pressure when she encountered setbacks in the future. However, whether it is medicine or alcohol, it is one of the reasons why beans gradually move towards self-destruction.
The world of Betel is constructed from a biological mother since childhood. The biological mother and the mother who accompanied her in various competitions of all sizes in the early stage of her chess competition career, the words they said about Betel are the keys to the achievements of this chess girl. Let us see what Betel’s “Mom Wisdom Golden Sentences” are!
1. Enjoy life, be kind to yourself, and be brave to take risks.
When Betel's mother and Betel went to the Mexican city to participate in the game, she suggested that Betel go out for more than a day before the game, instead of staying in the room to study the chess game. However, Betel, who was cautious in the face of the game, could not hear any sound, which reminded Betel that she must examine herself and said that chess is not everything to her.
"Experience tells me that a person's expertise is the most important thing.""What is important?"
"Life and growth. Enjoy life, be kind to yourself, and be brave to take risks."
2. The strongest thing is those who are not afraid of being alone.
Betel's mother once said to her: "There is nothing to be afraid of in the darkness. In fact, I can even say that I don't have to be afraid of anything. No matter where I am, the strongest thing is those who are not afraid of being alone. What you have to worry about is other people. They will play guides on you and keep in mind your feelings. Soon, you have been chasing all your life. If someone wants you to look for, one day you will be alone, so you must know how to take care of yourself."
This talk deeply affects Betel's one Life, in fact, how strong and independent Betel is in appearance means how fragile she is in her heart. Betel had no growth gaps that were supplemented by her biological mother when she was young, which happened to be why Betel loved chess. Betel once visited a magazine and said, "There are only 64 black and white grids that make me feel safe and mastered." Playing chess makes Betel feel very at ease, because only in this 64 black and white chessboard grid, she can control everything that will happen, just like being in another world.
3. Men will come to you and want to teach you, which does not mean that they are smarter than you. Most of them are pretty stingy, but that makes them feel amazing.
"They may show the correct way to do it, just let them blow, but you just do it according to your own feelings." This time when Betel gave birth to a mother, he also created Betel's character of doing his own things, and was even called a "straight-looking chess player" in the chess world.
4. Only strong women can be independent and self-sustainable.
"Only strong women can be independent and self-reliant. In today's society, people can easily get along with each other, just to say that they have some ability." Whether it is Bet's biological mother or the mother who raised her, they have a sad past; the biological mother was originally a daughter of a wealthy family and a major intellectual. After giving birth to Bet's, she was abandoned by a man who already had a family, and at the same time she was also lost to her family. So she took on the responsibility of caring for Bet's, and the two lived in the car.
As for the expectation of Betel's mother living in traditional society for women, she was so proud that she had no music dreams after entering marriage. She even believed that she was not because she was restricted and could not realize it, but because she was afraid of the show when she performed. However, her husband, who kept making excuses to go on a business trip, eventually divorced her, leaving Betel with her only to be with her, but she was willing to try to be a good mother for Betel.
