Big director
Chapter 3 It is not easy to live in the imperial capital...
He only had eight yuan in his pocket, including the ten yuan given by Brother Hao (it cost three yuan to buy the buns), and the two fifty-cent steel coins he already had.
When he passed by a sesame seed shop, he bought two sesame seed cakes and a bowl of bean curd for a total of two yuan.After he was full, he held the remaining six yuan, went to the newsstand, looked through several newspapers under the eyes of the boss, and found the information of a pawn shop in the cracks of a morning newspaper. As if to die, Zhu Zimo secretly wrote down the address, and in the end he didn't buy the newspaper. Under the strange eyes of the boss and passers-by, he left in shame.
In his current situation, even fifty cents had to be saved.
From a rich man who spends a lot of money and never cares about the price when buying things, to a pauper who can't even afford a newspaper, this gap is really like the Milky Way falling for nine days, so that Zhu Zimo was so depressed when he asked about taking the bus all the way, That half-dead look, with hair like dog shit, exudes an intoxicating smell in the hot summer, just like a biochemical weapon mixed into the crowd, which makes everyone hate it, and they are afraid to avoid it.
After spending a total of two yuan, changing cars once, and walking for a long time, Zhu Zimo finally found the address written in the newspaper.Carefully holding the crystal cup in his arms, he opened the door and walked in. Immediately, he felt a rush of cool air. The storefront of this pawn shop is very high-end and elegantly decorated. A young clerk in a white shirt greeted him. When he came up, he didn't show a strange look at the embarrassed Zhu Zimo, but smiled professionally and asked Zhu Zimo if he needed help.
After this difficult trek, Zhu Zimo also adjusted his mentality, so although he looked very embarrassed on the outside, his inner spirit was finally supported, his back was straight, his demeanor was indifferent, and he had an indestructible temperament. .He placed the crystal cups in the bag on the counter one by one. Under the cold light, these cups looked bright and gorgeous. Even a pure layman would think that this set of crystal cups was very valuable.In fact, think about it, with the level of local tyrant Zhu Zimo was back then, could the things he used be bad?Both the material and the carving work are top-notch.
The male clerk went over to observe with great interest. There were a total of six cups, all of which were crystal clear and flawless.After looking at it for a while, he was not sure, so he called the chief appraiser in the store. The appraiser looked at it for a long time with a magnifying glass, and finally said: "If you die, the highest price is 2000 yuan, and it's not worth anything more." gone."
The male clerk explained to Zhu Zimo that the market value of crystals is generally low now, and this price is already very fair. Even if you try your luck in other places, it will not exceed this price.Although Zhu Zimo was very heartbroken, he also felt that he was not deceived. While reading the newspaper, he checked today's date, which happened to be August 1999, 8. In his impression, at this time period, China He is not very rich yet, and the luxury goods market is not too prosperous. The prices of all kinds of jade and gemstones have just risen, and crystals are relatively cheap. It's a hundred dollars.
Anyway, he was anxiously waiting to use the money now, so he didn't say any more, he readily agreed to their offer, left his cups behind, and left with the steaming 2000 yuan in his arms.
He needs to find a place to take a shower first, and take care of his personal hygiene. He really can't bear it for another second!
Fortunately, this is in the north, and after a short walk, I saw a bathing center.Zhu Zimo first went to the nearby shopping mall and found a mid-range brand store. He spent more than 1000 yuan and bought two sets of clothes, a few pairs of underwear, a towel, a few pairs of socks, and a pair of leather shoes.He carried these things into the bathing center, gritted his teeth and asked for a clean private room, bought a small bag of shampoo and shower gel, and then went in, filled it with water, and came out until his whole body was soaked. After another half day of scrubbing and tossing and tossing for several hours, when the water finally came out, I felt refreshed, as if my whole body had lost two catties.
Coming out of the bathing center, Zhu Zimo went to another hairdressing shop, dyed his yellow hair back to black, and cut it short, revealing his smooth forehead.At this moment, he was smelling good all over, and he had changed into new clothes. After tidying up his hair, he looked in the mirror again, and he looked like a completely different person from when he first wore it!At that time, he could only judge from his facial features that he was somewhat similar to himself, but now his appearance can almost overlap with his original self.
At the beginning, the little brother in the barber shop tried his best to recommend him to dye wine red or charming purple, saying that it was the most popular this year, and he also said that he would choose a cut for him to make his hair rich in layers and make his long bangs elegant and charming...Zhu Zimo I rejected all the inhumane ones, which disappointed my little brother. He felt that such a simple short hair and black hair were too unchallenging, but who said that customers are gods?I didn't expect it to be cut out, but it was still very energetic.
However, he was still full of regrets, and while washing and drying Zhu Zimo’s hair, he thought about it, telling him to come and ask him to redesign it after he grew it longer, “Look at the young people on the street, who still has this kind of hair? Short black hair! How rustic! It would be nice to have yellow like yours, what a pity."
Zhu Zimo paid the money and decided not to come to this shop again.
As he walked, he counted the money he had saved.As a pauper, no matter how hard you try to use it, it always feels useless.It took less than half a day, and there were only five one-hundred bills left in his pocket, and a few one-dollar bills.I saw many rental agencies along the street, and after looking at the price tags, I felt even more fortunate that I still had a place to stay with me, otherwise, with this little money, he might have to choose to sleep on a park bench.
After wandering around in such a daze for a long time, I didn't think about what job to apply for to support myself.
After turning a corner, Zhu Zimo accidentally looked up, and immediately stopped in his tracks.I saw that this is a pedestrian street, and there are some poster racks scattered on both sides of the street, and some half-person-high movie posters are pasted on them. After all, watching movies is one of Zhu Zimo’s greatest hobbies. You can see the style of movies more than 300 years ago... If you are a person who is born poor, you must have looked for a job to make a living by this time, but even though Zhu Zimo is now cash-strapped, his heart has not changed immediately, what is he thinking? What kind of aristocratic style, seeing these 'retro style' movie posters, how can I move my legs?
I just want to pick someone who is interested, buy a ticket and go in to have a look!
West Wind, Ice and Fire, Heartbeat, Jing Ke Assassinates the King of Qin, Red River Valley, Chinese Heroes, My Father and Mother, Lotus Lantern... some are coming soon, some are currently showing.Zhu Zimo weighed it again, and went to the ticket counter to inquire about it, and finally decided to watch the 'Lotus Lantern'.Firstly, the timing is just right, there will be a show in 10 minutes, and secondly, he basically doesn’t know the actors from more than 300 years ago. not at all.So it's better to watch a cartoon, at least you can intuitively feel the development level of virtual technology at this time, right?
The girl who sells tickets is very extroverted, probably because of Zhu Zimo's good looks and outstanding temperament. When I was consulting with her, I introduced him in a chattering manner, saying that the lotus lantern is full of big names, and the box office is currently far ahead. The masterpiece of our domestic animation is definitely not to be missed... The Zhu Zimo said is high-spirited, and he doesn't think the movie ticket of 30 yuan is expensive. Even if the theater is small and the screen is the oldest style, he is still full of expectations. .
An hour and a half later, Zhu Zimo, who looked lonely, left the cinema with the crowd.He felt as if he had been hit hard again. If he had to describe it, he would be like a fan of novels in the 21st century. From now on, I can only watch silent movies in black and white.I can’t say how bad the Lotus Lantern is. After all, from the perspective of contemporary people, this film is already the pinnacle of domestic cartoons. It is full of superstars, full of sincerity, and many technologies are the first in China... But Zhu Zimo's appetite has long been spoiled by the world more than 3 years later. At this moment, no matter how much he hypnotizes himself, he can't regain his enthusiasm... He is completely depressed.
The material level has fallen to the bottom, is it possible that even the spiritual enjoyment has been deprived?
Zhu Zimo didn't know what to eat and found a small restaurant, ordered an egg fried rice to eat, then went to the mall and entered the men's restroom, entered the space inside the earrings from the inside, turned on the optical brain, dug out his food storage, and After watching three parts in one breath, the depression in my chest was relieved.
He has gone back to more than 300 years ago, the optical brain cannot connect to the network at that time, but if he wants, he can try to connect to the current network-it seems that at this time, the network has just emerged, with his technology, combined with this Taiwan represents the latest optical brain technology, and it is easy to invade anywhere.But what's the use of his hacking?The environment is barren, and there is no motivation at all!
Zhu Zimo clicked on the subdirectory dejectedly, and found out a cartoon he made last year for fun.With the technology of the 24th century, as long as the director has an idea, the concept is good enough, and he can tell a story well and completely, he can produce a movie that people like.It doesn't matter even if the director doesn't have relevant skills, anyway, there are many people with skills, just hire one.In such an environment, the world has already entered the era of national entertainment. There is no big film company representing authority. Under the eyeball economy, as long as you are talented, you were still unknown yesterday, and you may become popular today. Heroes are judged by success or failure. , quite fair.
Of course, fans are also realistic, if one day you run out of talents, no one will remember you soon.
Since Zhu Zimo likes reading novels, anime, and movies so much, he certainly has the ambition to become famous in one fell swoop.But still the same sentence, he is too lazy, if a person lacks nothing, then his need for fame and fortune will shrink almost invisible, although occasionally he will envy those big players' prestige, but as soon as he wants to become famous In addition to the huge pressure brought by the fans, they have to release new works every year with guaranteed quality and quantity. Once the works are not satisfactory, there will be overwhelming black people to attack.In short, being on the cusp of the storm all the time, Zhu Zimo, who has always been relatively unambitious, shudders when he thinks about such a life.
So much so that no matter how proud he was of this work, he did not publish it, and only quietly admired and proud of it by himself.If he hadn't time-traveled, perhaps it wouldn't be long before Zhu Zimo couldn't restrain his desire to show off with his comrades, so he put on a vest and posted up.It's a pity that if there is no if, he can no longer make waves on the Internet in the 24th century.
Loneliness turns out to be worse than poverty...
Zhu Zimo watched the animation play silently, his eyes were slightly moist.
