What exactly does "cool" mean in your eyes?

"Cool" in Chinese basically means cruelty or depth. Nowadays, people often say "cool" is actually a homonym of the English word "cool", which means cool, cool, and another meaning is indifference and aloof.

Indifference and alienation are what modern people call "cool". But a cool person doesn't have to be aloof and aloof, but must be unique and different, because his world is fresh, exciting and strange, but he is a little unsociable, which makes people feel mysterious and shy, and really makes people love and fear.

There is also a kind of person who is decisive and brave, dares to love and hate, insists on what he wants, can do what ordinary people can't do, has great benevolence and righteousness in his heart, and asks for nothing in return. He is not only cool, but also has the potential to be a great hero.

People who are more in line with this ideal type, such as Zhu Chuanwu in Crossing the East. Zhu played by Zhu is such a cool person. He fell in love with Xianer and eloped with Xianer on their wedding night, regardless of secular vision and family ties. Because of various adventures, he was killed by Japanese artillery fire. He is a truly respectable person.

"Cool" is such a kind of courage regardless.
