This motto helped catalyze China into becoming what it is today: an increasingly materialistic, money-worshipping society that has lost touch with traditional ethics. Nothing captures this moral vacuum more vividly than the recent television drama, “Wo Ju” (“Crowded Spaces”), which has been riveting Chinese audiences.
邓小平在上世纪 70 年代末推动中国对外开放时说过一句名言：“不管黑猫白猫，抓住老鼠的就是好猫。”而他这番话则催生了中国的现状：一个割裂了传统道德，并逐渐倒向物质主义，拜金主义的社会。对此，没有什么能比最近受中国观众热捧的电视连续剧《蜗居》更能生动地诠释这一点了。
