Xiangjiang old events [entertainment circle]

"Why don't you scold him a few more words? It's okay if you don't kick him!" Looking at the back of Julie leaving angrily, many viewers shouted in dissatisfaction: Spicy chickens that waste food should be taught a lesson. pause!

Although I don't understand the infinite mysteries of the popular stalk of later generations "Wife Chasing Crematorium", most Chinese people are born self-taught and very fond of the cool text routines of low-level counterattacks, slapping faces and pretending to be dogs. Si's disapproval in the early stage is very in line with the plot preposition in their minds of counterattack and slap in the face.

"Xiaoying, you should also learn a little bit, you can't want a young man like this, don't be fooled by that face..." Mrs. Li was talking to her granddaughter Zhang Xiaoying, and Wu Xiulan laughed a little.

Maybe all of this will be like the story in the movie, will it come after suffering?

On the screen, after discovering from Bryce's perspective that Julie really hated him, he began to do something completely unexpected to him before. For this, his inner monologue was "I found out that Julie gave birth to me It's worse than she made me angry."

The way she ignores me always reminds me: I'm an asshole.

While Bryce was thinking this way, he pretended to be calm and wanted to get closer to Julie while holding the dinner plate.

As a result, just as he sat down on the seat next to him, Julie immediately packed up her things and got up and walked away, leaving him sitting in the original position with an embarrassed face...

The audience burst out laughing one after another: Yes, that's right, that's it!

Uncharacteristically, in the rapid daily life screen switching, from the classroom to the cafeteria to the corridor, Bryce tried every means to get close to Julie, but Julie was like a master who was proficient in anti-reconnaissance skills. Come on the spot and run away.

The more embarrassed and deflated Bryce was, the happier the audience was.

The kind where you ignored me yesterday, and tomorrow I make you look down on me... It's not so good!

One day, when Bryce came home, he found that his grandfather, who didn't show a smile no matter how much he flattered him, was actually teaching and helping Julie tidy up the yard.

He couldn't help but always peeked at the movement on the opposite side. In the end, even Bryce's father knew that his grandpa was helping the neighbor's yard on the opposite side to clean up. When they got together to watch TV at night, he sarcastically said that grandpa was at home. She doesn't move around, but she is very active outside.

Grandpa calmly told the truth that Julie's family was saving money to treat family members with mental problems, and also explained that Julie's house was a rented house, and Julie's parents were busy taking care of the family and making money, so they had no time to clean up.

According to the law here, the landlord should pay for the tidying up of the yard.

However, Bryce's father, Steven, has no sympathy or empathy at all. He bluntly said that every family has difficult scriptures, but other families can also tidy up the yard and lawn. Julie's family is so shirking responsibility, sloppy, and affecting the community. Image, maybe there is a problem with the genetics, which will cause a mental retardation.

This attitude obviously aroused the anger of the grandfather, so the grandfather explained again that Julie's father's brother Daniel was born with hypoxia caused by the umbilical cord around the neck, otherwise he would be as healthy as Bryce!

This touched Bryce's mother. Thinking that Bryce almost became cerebral palsy because of this, Bryce's mother had tears in her eyes and couldn't help getting up and going back to the room.

Bryce's father yelled at his grandfather angrily, and then hurried back to the room to check on Bryce's mother.

At this time, Bryce's sister went outside to play with the band formed by Julie's twin brothers, and only grandpa and Bryce were left in the house.

Hearing his grandfather say that the reason why he didn't become the second Daniel was that the doctor who delivered him was skilled and untied the umbilical cord in time to save him, Bryce felt very uncomfortable.

The old and the young were walking under the shade of the trees at night. Bryce, who had always longed to get close to his grandfather, opened up to his grandfather for the first time on this special night and had a serious conversation.

Grandpa told him that his attitude of focusing on identity and preferring to integrate into the team rather than stand out is actually very similar to Bryce's father; and Julie was taught by her father who is proficient in painting to look at things and people. , You can't just look at the details but look at the overall point of view, which is very similar to the wife of the grandfather who passed away.

Self-respect and self-love, caring and responsible, refined and considerate of others, have independent personality and interesting soul

In this world, some people are superficial and ignorant, some people are extravagant, but there is also a kind of person who is as gorgeous as a rainbow, and when you meet such a person, you must cherish it——Grandpa taught Bu in this way in the end Rice Road.

Based on Bryce's current experience, these words are only half-understood, but the profound truth in them is also unforgettable for him.

So he subconsciously began to pay attention to everything about Julie that he deliberately ignored in the past.

Compared with Bryce's own and family's troubles, Julie's perspective is a harmonious and warm dinner scene.

The twin brothers, played by Chen Boyang and Zhang Querong, came out singing the brisk and fresh "What's Your Name". Each has a unique face, the typical Chinese traditional elegance, which attracted the praise of the audience in unison.

Although poor, Julie's family is full of joy and warmth, not at all depressing like Bryce's family.

Julie made a proposal to use the money from selling eggs to tidy up the yard, but was rejected by Julie's father, Richard, saying that it was your money, and the tidying up of the yard should be funded by the landlord.

When Julie's mother Trina heard this, she couldn't help being angry and wronged, saying that they had lived here for so many years that the landlord didn't pay for the clean-up, and there was already a faint quarrel.

Tracing back to the source, Julie, who has always been well-behaved and sensible, asked her why she wanted to tidy up the yard. In fact, she was rejected by the neighbor Bryce's family. The other four people who got along well with the Bryce family changed instantly. Face.

"Who cares what they think." The two brothers said disapprovingly.

"I care!" Julie's mother shouted immediately, telling Julie's father to think about his children instead of saving money blindly, just to send his younger brother Daniel to an expensive private nursing home.

However, Julie's father has a deep affection for her brother and absolutely does not allow her brother with mental problems not to receive good care. For a while, the two quarreled very fiercely.

With tears in her eyes, Julie looked like a child who had made a mistake, looking at the noisy and blushing parents at a loss, trying to persuade them, but was powerless.

"I'm sorry, Julie, it's not your fault. We'll find a way to solve it." Seeing Julie's appearance, Julie's parents stopped the quarrel immediately, each slowed down, and then said something in a hoarse voice.

That night, both Julie's father and Julie's mother came to Julie's room once.

In addition to both apologizing to Julie, Julie's father also told his parents that he would take care of his younger brother forever.

And Julie's mother said that she just likes the kindness and strength of Julie's father, but the sad life of a poor and humble couple gave her unexpected resentment.

"You are my blessing." After telling her heart, Julie's mother gave Julie a goodnight kiss and whispered in her ear.

Lying on the bed, Julie felt sorry for the embarrassment of her parents on the one hand; on the other hand, she was also thankful that she had such a pair of parents who respected and cared for their children, and felt very lucky.

In contrast, although the Bryce family has a good life, there are always various frictions and contradictions.

Materially rich and spiritually rich, Julie chose the latter without hesitation.

During a weekend vacation, Julie followed her father to visit her uncle Daniel.

Witnessing her uncle's sudden onset of madness without warning in the ice cream shop, and her father's efforts to control and take care of her, Julie understood the difficulty of her parents, and she turned the symbol of "Daniel" into a symbol in her heart. Memories of living family.

As if she had grown up and matured in an instant, she finally deeply understood the reason for what her parents had always insisted on.

It's just for the word "family", but it's not just for the word "family".

And just when Julie realizes what family is, Bryce is in the library, and for the sake of face, he speaks ill of Julie's uncle Daniel with his plastic friend.

At the two family gatherings that night, Bryce subconsciously flattered and approached her, but she responded with a cold face and said bluntly that she heard Bryce mocking her uncle in the library, so she didn't want to pay attention to him anymore.

The audience was relieved to see Bryce's extremely embarrassing face at the time.

At dinner, Bryce's father still had a bad mouth, and he seemed to be concerned, but he asked the twin brothers about his future college studies, but when he learned that they had been admitted to several schools, he was severely slapped in the face by the facts .

This face-slapping plot was so exciting that the audience almost laughed out loud.

"But we still plan to make music first." The twin brother said.

Following this topic, Bryce's mother casually said that after Bryce's father was also a very good saxophone player back then, the very hearty and generous twin brothers immediately asked him if he still played. If he still played, he could Play music with them.

Bryce's father fell silent for a moment, and couldn't even force a smile.

Seeing this, some relatively older educated youths began to feel a faint sadness that empathized with them.

And it wasn't until this moment that Bryce realized the reason why his father had been mocking Julie's family: After compromising his interests, he gradually lost his original intention of having a musical dream.

The young man who used to have kindness and dreams was bent by reality and became the person he hated the most.

Maybe in the bottom of his heart, what Bryce's father despises is not the Julie family who chased the dream of painting and music, but the self who lost his kindness and dreams.

At the end of the dinner, Julie found Bryce and apologized for her previous bad attitude.

At this moment, Bryce felt even more sad in his heart.

Looking at the back of Julie's family walking hand in hand from afar, and thinking of the helplessness and mutual incomprehension in his own family, besides unspeakable sadness, he also had endless entanglements in his heart.

But the rapid development of the story did not allow him to be entangled and sad, and he happened to be on the list of "Basket Boys" on the school anniversary.

This is a lunch auction held for a charity event, and each selected boy takes a lunch basket and lets the classmates in the school bid for it like a commodity... This makes Bryce feel very humiliated and embarrassed.

But what embarrassed and saddened him the most was that at the auction, Julie photographed the basket boy numbered 8.

And his number is 9.

The dining tables of the two teams happened to be adjacent to each other. Seeing Julie chatting and laughing happily with the little nerd on the 8th, he finally couldn't hold back the turmoil in his heart. He left the school belle who had photographed him, and rushed to Julie's table to pull people away. out.

Then, just like the male protagonists in the movies that I want to learn to see, I kissed the heroine——before she got close to Julie, she got out of the way and pushed her.

He staggered and supported the back of the chair to stabilize his body. Amidst the laughter of the audience, Bryce ran all the way to chase out, but still failed to catch up with Julie who was crying and riding away.

The plastic friend chased him and scolded him, saying that the most popular girl in the school liked him but he didn't care. On the contrary, he had a crush on Julie, who was notoriously weird in school... Bryce got emotional and had an argument with his friend One and break up.

After the dinner that night, he realized that he couldn't laugh at other people's misfortune, and he was extremely angry at his friend's way of laughing at Julie because of the influence of his inherent thinking.

His good friend Garrett also has a small part of Chinese blood, but he doesn't have a normal view of his own blood like Julie, but wants to abandon this blood and try to get closer to the locals—this It is also the reason why Su Yun chose Keanu, who has one-eighth of Chinese blood, to play this role.

On the outside, those Chinese who do not identify with their own origin are not a minority. Compared with discrimination from others, backstabs from compatriots are more sad and angry.

Most impressive stories are always like this—behind the seemingly endlessly beautiful illusion, there is always the cruelty of reality.

On the way back with the basket all the way, Bryce finally realized that he had already fallen in love with Julie.

I don't know when the heartbeat started, this process is always difficult to find, like fingers across the glass, it is an unspeakable but easy-to-understand feeling.

Once the heart is moved, it is not only the heart that moves.

He also didn't want to search for the root cause, but he laughed from the bottom of his heart after understanding his true intentions.

And after the heart is moved, it is action. Unfortunately, Bryce failed to impress the "hard-hearted" Julie to look back at him after all kinds of tossing and tossing about the front door, the back door, the window, and the phone.

Just when Julie thought Bryce, an annoying guy, had finally given up and stopped, he actually went to Julie's yard with a shovel and dug a hole.

"Does this guy want to dig a tunnel in?" The audience who had experienced the previous tunnel battle wondered.

Following the two protagonists who have experienced so much and learned so much, at this moment, they also somewhat forgave this young man who knew his mistakes and could correct them, and wanted to see a happy ending.

Julie passed by and caught a glimpse of Bryce destroying the lawn she worked so hard to cultivate. When she was about to roll up her shirt sleeves and go out to teach him, Julie's father stopped her: "I allowed him to do this."

Julie looked at her father in puzzlement, and then looked out of the window—Bryce, who had finished digging the hole, was moving a small tree to the side of the hole.

It was a small sycamore tree.

In an instant, the old memories of listening to the wind and nature on the sycamore tree, as well as all the past, all came to my mind.

When they knelt on the ground and planted the small tree with their own hands, the greenness of the small tree and Bryce's blue-green eyes merged together, and she seemed to see the beauty she was looking for before.

She once wanted to guard the big sycamore tree that was cut down with Bryce, but he just flashed those beautiful eyes and didn't come.

Today, Bryce, who has experienced a lot and grown a lot, appeared in front of her again, and together with her, planted a new small sycamore tree.

The boy whose whole was greater than the sum of its parts, at this moment, has finally grown to the point where the whole is enough to touch people's hearts.

Living in this world, people will always encounter all kinds of good and bad things. In the journey of growing up, not only young boys and girls, but also various families waiting to understand and get along with each other.

The main line of this movie is not only the growth of two young boys and girls, but also the growth story of two families.

In the side profile, it also tells many details such as homesickness, respect and understanding, family and responsibility, self-esteem and self-love. In the last line "I am still grateful for the day I met you", it presents a kind of love for love, family and so on. A beautiful and ideal state of life, the world and the future.

Only those who have seen the darkness can cherish the light more.

Like most people of their generation, they are growing every moment, from individuals to families to nations.

When they fell behind the world and struggled to catch up with the world due to previous historical factors, someone brought them all the information from the outside world, but cautiously reminded them not to be immersed in the prosperous and beautiful dreams of the outside world, but to take root in reality. Looking to the future - one day, everything they expect will come with their efforts.

Such an ideological guide is a ray of light on their confused life path, illuminating the way forward and reassuring them.

Before Su Yun left, she specially left Xiangjiang's mailing address for the Shanghai Film Translation Factory, so that those educated youths who are film commentators can write to the Film Translation Factory if they have any feedback. When the staff of the translation factory over there go to Xiangjiang to pick up the film on a regular basis, they can drop by and report back on the situation after the film went to the countryside.

Although the communication between the two places is still not convenient in today's era, there are still many letters sent with feelings. After a long journey, the sweet fragrance of redbud flowers will go away with the sunshine in late spring and early summer. At that time, it came to Su Yun's hands full of emotions.

"Please allow me to say thanks to you, it is you who let us see the prosperity of the outside world through dreams woven by light and shadow in the lost years and years..."

"And at the same time, you also let me finally know that even if the other party is very good, this place of peace of mind is my hometown."

"On this red road, because of the green mailboxes on the street, we will no longer be alone."

"Even though we are thousands of miles away, I still believe and look forward to the fact that the brilliance of the sparkling red star will eventually reach the sunset harbor and bring back the brightest pearl in the East after a century of baptism."

"Here, with the most sincere emotions, I wish you and everything well."

"I hope that when we meet again in the future, the five-star red flag will soar into the sky."

In the silent night, looking at letters with earnest words and deep feelings, Su Yun looked out of the window, and vaguely seemed to see the happy birthday of the five stars and the redbud flowers that turned into a sea of ​​red after a hundred years of wind and rain.
