“希望是美好的，也许是人间至善，而美好的事物永不消逝。”
“ Hope is beautiful, perhaps the greatest good in the world, and beautiful things never fade away. ”
——题记
— — preface
在人生的前半段，主人公安迪事业成功，受人敬仰。可上帝动动小指，就能让一个人的命运直转急下。被指控杀死了妻子及其情夫，安迪锒铛入狱，来到了肖申克监狱，一个全新的世界，也开始了“自我的重生”。
In the first half of his life, the protagonist Andy achieved success in his career and was highly respected. But with the movement of God's little finger, a person's fate can be turned upside down. Accused of killing his wife and her lover, Andy was imprisoned and arrived at Shawshank Prison, where a whole new world began; The rebirth of oneself;.
安迪必须学会如何在这个全新的世界里活下去。
Andy must learn how to survive in this brand new world.
肖申克监狱就是一个社会的缩影，除了不能走出围墙，这里是个完整的生态系统。烟是硬通货，有成熟的商业物流系统与上下流利益分配，大部分人都是吃瓜群众，他们围绕在几个意见领袖周围形成力量割据。与此同时，这里也有坏分子，他们就像追逐在牛群之后的鬣[liè]狗，把那些弱小的和掉队的吃掉，它们也是这个生态食物链中的一部分。
Shawshank Prison is a microcosm of society, where apart from not being able to step out of the walls, it is a complete ecosystem. Smoke is a hard currency, with a mature commercial logistics system and distribution of interests between upper and lower levels. Most people are onlookers, forming a power divide around a few opinion leaders. At the same time, there are also bad elements here, like hyenas chasing after herds of cattle, eating up the weak and fallen ones. They are also part of this ecological food chain.[ 作文吧 ZUowEnbA.Net ]
安迪并不打算依附于任何一个群体。
Andy has no intention of attaching himself to any group.
在一次外出劳动中，安迪迎来了人生的转机。他偶然间听到了看守长海利的抱怨，他冒着被推下屋顶的风险，成功地抓住了食物链上层人士的痛点，即所谓“富贵险中求”，利用自己的专长为看守长免除税务。狱友们享受着安迪争取来的三瓶冰啤酒，而他窝在阴凉处，安静地享受这来之不易的短暂的自由时刻。在此之后，他得到了其他人的尊敬，更重要的是他找到了上升的阶梯。安迪把自己打造成了一个非常有用的工具，因为这份利用价值，他获得了一系列的特权。正如影片中瑞德所说，有些鸟儿是注定不会被关在笼子里的，因为它们的每一片羽毛，都闪耀着自由的光辉。沉稳坚定如安迪，他在监狱里也可以实现人生的价值。可我们都知道，这并不是他想要的自由。
During a labor trip, Andy experienced a turning point in his life. He accidentally heard the complaint of the caretaker Haley, who took the risk of being pushed off the roof and successfully seized the pain point of those in the upper echelons of the food chain, known as the 'pain point'; Seeking wealth and prosperity insurance; Using their expertise to exempt the warden from taxes. The inmates enjoyed the three bottles of cold beer that Andy had fought for, while he nestled in the shade, quietly savoring this precious moment of freedom. Afterwards, he gained the respect of others, and more importantly, he found his way up the ladder. Andy has turned himself into a very useful tool, and because of this value, he has gained a series of privileges. As Red said in the film, some birds are destined not to be caged because every feather of them shines with the radiance of freedom. Steady and firm like Andy, he can also realize the value of life in prison. But we all know that this is not the freedom he wants.
难以忘记安迪将狱警锁在厕所里，自己跑到播音室放了一曲莫扎特的《费加罗婚礼》。这一刻，所有的囚犯都停下了手中的活计，抬着头，静静地享受这片刻的宁静，片刻的自由。
It's hard to forget that Andy locked the prison guard in the bathroom and ran to the studio to play Mozart's "The Marriage of Figaro". At this moment, all the prisoners stopped their work, lifted their heads, and quietly enjoyed this moment of tranquility and freedom.
安迪最终花费19年的时间用一柄小锤凿穿墙壁，成功完成越狱。那么在他“自我重生”的过程中，什么是最重要的元素呢？首先是他作为银行家的思考方式，一件事情暂时看似收获的不多，但只要坚持地去做，最终就会收获非常大的回报，类似金融的“复利”现象。在他挖通越狱通道的过程中，起决定作用的并不是工具与胆量，而是耐心。这并不是什么奇迹，而是时间的力量。另一个重要的精神因素就是希望。当瑞德提醒他，在监狱里保有希望是危险的，而安迪却说，希望是世界上最美好的东西，他要么忙着生，要么忙着死。从此更加坚定了越狱的决心。
Andy finally spent 19 years chiseling through the wall with a small hammer and successfully escaped from prison. So in him; Self Rebirth; What is the most important element in the process? Firstly, it is his way of thinking as a banker. While it may seem like he hasn't gained much from something at the moment, as long as he persists in doing it, he will ultimately reap significant rewards, similar to the financial system; Compound interest; Phenomenon. In the process of digging the escape route, what played a decisive role was not tools and courage, but patience. This is not a miracle, but the power of time. Another important spiritual factor is hope. When Red reminded him that having hope in prison is dangerous, Andy said that hope is the most beautiful thing in the world, and he is either busy living or busy dying. From then on, I became even more determined to escape from prison.
与此同时，更令人震撼的还有老布的死。他十几岁入狱，在监狱里享有一定地位，出狱后完全不能适应社会的变化，从而选择自杀。用影片中瑞德的话来说，他们都被“体制化”了。监狱里的人就像被圈养了很久的鸟，忘记了飞翔的姿势。而安迪不会，他永远渴望着飞翔，渴望着自由。纪伯伦说，自由是人类枷锁中最粗的一条。肖申克监狱中的人和所有现代社会的人一样，他们追求的自由只是一种幻觉，是身处牢笼中的一时喘息。而安迪以他的自律、耐心与智慧做保证，追求的自由是痛苦的自我反省，漫长的自我救赎之后所体会到的真正的自由。
At the same time, what is even more shocking is the death of Lao Bu. He was imprisoned in his teens and enjoyed a certain status in prison. After being released, he was completely unable to adapt to the changes in society and chose to commit suicide. In the words of Red in the film, they were all; Institutionalization; That's it. People in prison are like birds that have been kept captive for a long time, forgetting their flying posture. But Andy doesn't, he always yearns for flying and freedom. Gibran said that freedom is the thickest of human shackles. The people in Shawshank Prison, like all people in modern society, pursue freedom that is only an illusion, a temporary respite in the cage. And Andy, with his self-discipline, patience, and wisdom as guarantees, pursues the freedom of painful self reflection, the true freedom experienced after a long period of self redemption.
这才是《肖申克的救赎》中，真正的救赎。
This is the true redemption in The Shawshank Redemption.
