Chapter 666 Literary Youth
Youqing is a miserable child who has never had a good life since he was a child.
Because he had to get up early to deliver water with Jiazhen, he almost didn't get a good night's sleep.
This time, he can sleep forever.
In front of Youqing's grave, the district chief who had caused a big disaster came to express his condolences with a wreath.
This district chief is actually an acquaintance of Fugui and Jiazhen, a former casino clerk, and Chunsheng, a shadow puppet performer who went around the streets with Fugui.
After being captured, Fugui chose to go home, but Chunsheng stayed. After going through a lot of ups and downs, he became the district chief.
Former acquaintances met again, but they never expected that it would be such a scene.
Chun Sheng's face was filled with shame.
"I'm sorry, I didn't know that was your son."
Fugui looked sad.
"Chunsheng, this is my only son, this is my only son, and you killed me like this."
"What kind of car are you driving?"
Chunsheng is speechless.
Time soon came to the 1960s. Jiazhen suffered from rickets due to overwork in her early years. She was weak and unable to do heavy work.
For some reasons, Fugui could only burn his shadow puppet props.
Fengxia has also reached the age of marriage. Mayor Niu introduces a young man named Wan Erxi, who is a well-paid worker.
Wan Erxi has a foot problem and is not good at talking, but he likes Fengxia very much and does not dislike her for being a mute. He is also very kind to Fengxia. On their wedding day, there was a big pomp and circumstance, and Fengxia was treated to her in all her glory. Married through the door.
Youqing passed away and Fengxia got married, leaving only the old couple of the Fugui family to depend on each other.
For some reasons, many people are affected.
Mayor Niu and District Chang Chunsheng, who have good personalities, are no exception.
Because Youqing was killed in an accident, Chunsheng came to Fugui's house several times over the years, wanting to help Fugui find an easy job as compensation, but Fugui refused every time, and Jiazhen never I have never met Chunsheng on my own initiative.
But this time, Chunsheng came with a bankbook. His wife committed suicide and he didn't want to live anymore. Before he died, he gave the bankbook to Fugui, but he wanted it but it was the last thing on his mind.
Fugui advised Chunsheng to persevere and the situation would get better one day.
Jiazhen also opened the door for the first time and invited Chunsheng into the house, which meant that she forgave Chunsheng.
Before leaving, Jiazhen took the initiative to persuade Chunsheng.
"Chunsheng, remember, you still owe our family a life, you have to live well."
After Chunsheng returned, he also thought about persisting, but as the situation worsened, he finally chose to commit suicide.
Fugui's old comrade-in-arms.
died.
Not long after, Fengxia became pregnant.
A new little life is about to be born, which means hope.
On the day of delivery, Fugui and Jiazhen came to the hospital, only to find that there were no experienced doctors. They had all been taken away. Only a bunch of young girls who had just graduated from nursing school were left in the hospital.
Wan Erxi was a little worried and tried to find an old doctor named Wang Bin to come over.
Wang Bin hadn't eaten for several days and his feet were shaking when he walked. Fugui was afraid that something might happen, so he went to the street and bought some big steamed buns.
When Wang Bin saw the big steamed buns, he was like a starving ghost reincarnated, devouring them without caring about anything else.
Fengxia's delivery went smoothly, and soon she gave birth to a fat boy. Jiazhen said it would be better to just name the baby Steamed Bun, as it would be easier to support.
Wan Erxi smiled naively beside him, grinning from ear to ear with joy.
Sudden.
Fengxia suffered from massive postpartum bleeding.
The little girl who had just graduated had no experience and had no idea what to do.
Several people hurried to find the old doctor Wang Bin, but found that he was so dizzy from eating several large steamed buns that he could not even move.
In this way, several people could only watch helplessly as Fengxia bled away and died on the operating table.
Jiazhen also fainted due to the mental shock.
Just like that, Fugui's only daughter.
died.
Blessings come in pairs, and misfortunes never come alone.
Jiazhen was already weak due to rickets. Seeing Fengxia die in front of her eyes, she was so shocked that she died in bed a few months later.
In this way, Fugui lost the woman who had accompanied him all his life, and he was left alone.
Fortunately, Erxi was a caring person. Knowing that Fugui was lonely, he often brought his grandson Kugen to visit him.
With Kugen as his grandson, Fugui's life no longer seems lonely.
Several years passed by in a flash.
The accident happened again.
Wan Erxi was a worker, and because he was busy at work, he asked Fugui to take care of the bitter root, so that the old man would not be too lonely.
this day.
After Wan Erxi finished her work, she came to visit Fugui and her son with a bag of gifts.
While crossing the bridge, Wan Erxi accidentally fell into the river.
The river is not deep, and normal people can stand up, but Wanerxi is a lame disabled person. This action that is easy for ordinary people is more difficult for him than climbing to the sky.
Wan Erxi grabbed a stone in the river, hoping that someone would come to save him. He persisted for a long time, but was eventually washed away by the current.
When Fugui got the news, all he saw was a body covered with white cloth.
In this way, Fugui's son-in-law Wan Erxi also died, leaving only him and his grandson Kugen dependent on each other.
But Fugui was not knocked down by life, but stubbornly survived with the roots of bitterness.
Kugen lost his parents at a young age, but at least he still had the love of his grandfather Fugui.
The life of the two is relatively difficult, but very stable. Fugui is very happy to see Kugen growing up day by day.
On this day, Fugui found a bag of beans. Because this thing was relatively rare, he excitedly cooked the beans and gave them to Kugen, his grandson.
Because he felt sorry for his grandson, Fugui didn't eat even a single bean, leaving a large bowl full of bitter roots.
Kugen was also very happy to see the beans and wolfed down a large bowl full of beans. Fugui looked on with relief.
But no one thought that the tragedy would be caused by this bowl of beans.
After eating a large bowl of beans, Kugen felt very thirsty, so he picked up the water bottle and poured it into his mouth.
When the beans are exposed to water, they swell and expand in size, stretching out the bitter root and causing great discomfort.
Ku Gen groaned in pain, and Fu Gui also noticed something was wrong and stood by not knowing what to do.
Before he could come up with a good idea, Kugen was strangled to death.
In this way, Fugui's only relative in the world, his grandson Kugen.
died.
Fugui was left alone in the world.
The only thing he has left is an old cow at home.
The movie comes to an end.
On this day, someone from the outside world heard Fugui's story and came to visit him, watching him and an old cow cuddling together.
He was surprised: "It's so miserable, how did you survive?"
Fugui smiled: "How else can I live? Just live like this."
The movie ends.
The subtitle list appears.
The theater lights came on.
No one spoke, no one said anything.
There was silence in the screening room, and breathing could be heard.
This movie is shocking, like a big mountain pressing on people's hearts.
Heavy.
A truly good movie can shock people's hearts.
And "Alive" is undoubtedly such a good movie.
The movie "Alive" describes the fate of individuals under the tide of the times through Fugui's perspective, which makes people feel a strong spiritual impact.
Especially the twists and turns and sufferings of Fugui's fate make people's hearts tremble involuntarily.
There were sobbing sounds everywhere in the screening room, and some people secretly wiped their eyes with toilet paper.
Tao Heng let out a long sigh, as if he wanted to let out the sadness and depression deep in his heart caused by watching the movie.
But he simply couldn't do it.
This movie is so shocking and its impact is so powerful, how could it be possible to offset the impact with a simple action.
That was a shock to the soul.
"Old Tao, are you crying?"
Liu Dongdong said suddenly.
Tao Heng was stunned for a moment, then touched the corners of his eyes with his fingers, and found that he had shed tears without realizing it.
He actually cried?
A movie that can make a veteran film critic like him shed tears can be imagined how shocking it is.
At the beginning, Tao Heng still watched the movie with a review mentality, but as he watched it, he became immersed in the story narrated in the movie. He and Fugui experienced decades of ups and downs, and experienced the miserable and helpless life. In life, I cry unconsciously.
"Tell me, you're crying too."
"yes."
Liu Dongdong sighed and didn't bother to defend.
Normally, he would never admit that it was a bit embarrassing for an adult to cry while watching a movie.
But after watching "Alive", he felt depressed. He was still immersed in the previous emotions and couldn't get out of it. He was in no mood to argue with Tao Heng.
Not only him, but many people in the screening room were the same as him. They were all shocked by the movie "Alive", or in other words, they were depressed. They had no mood at all and just wanted to go home and lie down.
After calming down for a while, Liu Dongdong and Tao Heng got up and walked outside.
As soon as he walked out of the door, Tao Heng suddenly slapped his head.
"By the way, we still have a movie we haven't watched yet."
"Tickets for Chen Pengfei's "Legend of the Demon Cat" have been booked and the screening will start in half an hour."
Nowadays, technology is advanced and you can use your mobile phone to book tickets in advance. Liu Dongdong and Tao Heng have already used mobile apps to book movie tickets for Xu Nan's "Alive" and Chen Pengfei's "The Legend of the Demon Cat". They plan to watch both movies at the same time and comment on them.
"No, I don't want to do anything now, I just want to rest." Liu Dongdong waved his hand.
Tao Heng also sighed.
He and Liu Dongdong had the same idea. After watching "Alive", his whole body felt depressed, as if there was a big stone in his chest, and he no longer had the mood to do anything.
at the same time.
Another movie theater.
Wei Fang and Luo Man are a couple and also a pair of artistic young people.
The two of them like literary and artistic works very much, and they also like to watch literary and artistic films.
This time I heard that Chen Pengfei's new movie "Legend of the Demon Cat" was released. The two of them immediately bought tickets to watch it and have just finished watching it.
"This movie is great."
"Yes, with the gorgeous way of transformation, the endless twists and turns of the plot, and the twists and turns of Concubine Yang's fate, this movie is really exciting."
"I used to think that it was a waste of time for Chen Pengfei to make commercial films, but now it seems that it is still useful. The artistic films he makes are better."
"It does look better, but he still wastes a lot of time filming commercial films. Commercial films are not as high-end as artistic films."
The young couple had just watched Chen Pengfei's movie, and they were excited and discussing it enthusiastically.
Chen Pengfei's "Legend of the Demon Cat" was very exciting. At the beginning of the movie, there is a demon cat causing trouble in Chang'an. The neon monk Kukai and the Chang'an official Bai Letian tried their best to investigate. During the period, they experienced all kinds of human beings and all kinds of human ghosts.
After they investigated the truth, they discovered that the demon cat was actually the soul of Concubine Yang, and that she committed evil in Chang'an to take revenge on the Li family dynasty.
After the monks Kukai and Bai Letian learned the truth, they wanted to save the demon cat. In the process of surviving the demon cat, they gradually learned the truth about the thrilling Maweipo Incident.
This movie has extremely profound connotations and gorgeous and beautiful images. Through the experiences of the monks Kukai and Bai Letian, we can understand the various states of people's hearts and deeply analyze the alienation and perversion of people's hearts in the face of power.
To put it bluntly, this movie is very good-looking and very appealing to the tastes of artistic young people.
What Wen Qing likes most are works with profound connotations and analysis of human nature.
The more the young couple Wei Fang and Luo Man discussed it, the more they felt that this movie was wonderful. It had so many connotations and profound meanings that every scene had a profound meaning.
Luo Man couldn't help but said: "How about we watch this movie again. I feel that I missed a lot of things and details just now. I didn't understand everything that Director Chen Pengfei wanted to express."
Wei Fang felt that this proposal was simply wonderful. Watching such a wonderful art film once is definitely not enough. You must watch it several times to have a deeper understanding.
But after thinking about it, he still said: "Wait a minute, I have bought tickets for Xu Nan's movie "Alive" in advance. The time is coming soon. If you are late, you will miss it."
"It's better to watch "Alive" first. It's the same thing after watching "Alive" before watching Director Chen's "Legend of the Demon Cat"."
Luo Man rolled his eyes at that time: "What's so good about Xu Nan's movies? He understands art, and he also makes literary films. You don't have to think about it. The literary films he makes must be the kind of movies that are pretentious and sophisticated, vulgar .”
Although Xu Nan is a great commercial director, a world-famous director, and has the highest domestic film box office, in the eyes of young people, Mao is not.
Art is what they value most.
So what if Xu Nan can make money, he is not just a commoner.
Only art can be called advanced.
Therefore, Xu Nan's literary films are viewed as jokes by literary and artistic young people, and they are simply vulgar.
Literary youths have very strange ideas.
Wei Fang and Luo Man had the same idea. Even though Xu Nan was a big commercial director, he was not even comparable to Chen Pengfei.
Wei Fang said: "Who told us to book the tickets in advance? It will be wasted if we don't go. It's the same thing if we watch "Alive" first and then "The Legend of the Demon Cat" directed by Chen."
Luo Man nodded hesitantly: "Okay, let's see how Xu Nan's movie goes."
