The winter of 2002 was even colder than usual.

The winter that has lasted for several months does not seem to be ready to just leave with bags, even though it is close to March, there is still a light snow, and pedestrians on the street go back and forth, breathing in between breaths.

In a courtyard near Jimen Bridge, a very handsome-looking young man stood quietly in the courtyard. In this kind of weather, where everyone wants to wrap up all their clothes, he is only wearing a cotton sweatshirt, which looks extremely thin.

At this moment, he posed with the authentic three-body pile method, condensed in the snow, seemingly motionless, only when he was close to the closer, he could see that his body was swaying slightly with an irregular but extremely natural dynamic, and the snowflakes fell on him, and before he could get close, they melted and turned into water vapor, faintly floating into the sky again.

"Whew--" With the young man's long breath, he saw that between his mouth, a long qi sword shot out, condensed in the air, and dissipated with the cold wind for a long time.

The young man's name is Ye Sumang, and he is eighteen years old this year.

In the past 18 years, he has been plagued by an unknown headache, even if his grandfather took him to see many famous doctors, but he still had no clue, until he worshiped under an old man, after learning this three-body pose, the headache gradually decreased.

So in the past ten years, he has also developed the habit of standing for an hour every day.

The condition was under control, and the interval between the onset of the disease became longer and longer, which made Ye Sumang almost forget that it existed.

But just two days ago, after he came out of the examination room, he thought that his headache was gradually turning into a sudden outbreak, and the severe pain made him lose consciousness in an instant. When he woke up, he had many unknown memories in his mind.

It was like a dream, in which I became a traveler in time, shuttling through the time tunnel, appreciating the rising and setting of the sun and the moon from the perspective of God, the changes of the four seasons, the alternation of annual rings, and the vicissitudes of life.

The memories that came in came and went quickly, and it seemed to sink into Ye Sumang's mind in the blink of an eye, and only when he remembered it by chance would a certain fragment emerge. However, this time the fusion of memories has completely freed Ye Sumang from the headache he has had for more than ten years, and it has brought him many unexpected surprises.

First of all, he found that his memory had been greatly enhanced, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that he could not forget it. Holding the information book and flipping through it, he can memorize the content word for word, and he can accurately count the required information on a few pages and lines, as if he had printed a book in his head.

Along with his memory, he also has a sensitivity to art. That dream was like a teacher, and he learned in an instant what many people would never learn in a lifetime. Literature, painting, sculpture, music, dance, theater and even the films he is most familiar with are included.

For a moment, he felt that he only needed one thought to create a lot of excellent works.

He was also flustered at the beginning about this sudden change, but gradually he regarded it as a gift from God.

After practicing the three-body pose for a while, Ye Sumang only felt indescribably relaxed, thinking that he still had a re-exam to participate in tomorrow, and he did not delay, so he continued to prepare for the relevant homework when he returned to the house.

Ye Sumang applied for the Kyoto Film Academy, which is also one of the top three film and television schools in China, and he has to take the most difficult directing department among the seven major departments of the Kyoto Film Academy.

This is a legendary department that chooses ten out of 2,000, this is a legendary department that is not recruited by non-elites, and it is also the legendary department that all those who want to be directors want to enter the most! Originally, Ye Sumang was not very sure about applying for this kind of legendary department, but since the fragmented memories were fused into his mind, which brought him a series of changes, he immediately felt that his confidence had never been stronger.

Ye Sumang, who returned to the house, turned on the computer, because he applied for the director department, and what he will examine tomorrow is the analysis of film and television works and the creation of propositions, which is also the most difficult part of this department.

Just when the familiar boot sound of Windows98 sounded, the small door of the room also opened, and an old man with a woolen hat and a sad face walked in, it was Ye Sumang's grandfather Ye Xian.

"Su Mang, are you feeling better?"

"Don't worry, grandpa, I feel much better than usual now."

After Ye Xian entered the house, Ye Sumang hurriedly got up and took the military coat he took off, shook off the snow on it, and then hung it on the clothes rack.

Ye Xian looked at Ye Sumang's red face, he was indeed full of energy, so he didn't ask much, after all, Ye Sumang has often been sick for more than ten years, and his psychological endurance has long been exercised, as long as his little grandson feels that his body is fine, then basically nothing will happen.

"I've already eaten it at noon, this is a boxed lunch brought back from the factory, you deal with it, and I'll go to the market to buy a chicken in the evening and make soup for you." Ye Xian took out a large iron lunch box from his bag and handed it to Ye Sumang, this kind of lunch box was made by the film factory itself.

Because it has been used for a long time, the tin box looks a little potholed, but the quality is really good, after the lid is closed, it is difficult to dissipate the heat, and there is no need to worry about the soup flowing out, if you don't consider the appearance, it is definitely the best choice for going out to carry food.

Ye Sumang opened the lunch box, and there were only two kinds of side dishes in it, one shredded potatoes and one cabbage slices, which looked very bland.

"Is my grandfather's film studio ready to switch to animal husbandry?"

"Why do you ask?" Ye Xian was a little puzzled.

"Then how do you prepare so many green vegetables and turnips, isn't it raising rabbits?" Ye Sumang picked up a vegetable leaf and said with a mischievous smile.

"Stinky boy! Begging. Ye Xian was still sad, but seeing Ye Sumang's naughty energy holding the vegetable leaves, he couldn't help but be happy, and knocked him on the head with the hat in his hand.

But soon the sadness crawled up to his face again, and after thinking about it, he talked to himself as if complaining.

"Alas, the efficiency of the factory is not good, since the state does not buy films, the things filmed in the past two years have not been sold at any price, and the accounts of the film factory have also been in deficit for two years, and the place with the largest income is the small cinema reception crew to make a few dollars, how much money can this have? Now the wages in the factory have not been paid for two months, and I heard that the top will be rectified recently, if this is true, in a few months, I am afraid that our factory will disappear completely. ”

Hearing his grandfather's sigh, half explaining and half complaining, Ye Sumang couldn't help but sigh. The prosperity of the film factory in recent years is vivid, why is this not going to work?

Thinking about it carefully, Ye Sumang still had a clue.

Since the state introduced measures two years ago to no longer contract state-owned film studios to produce films, Kyoto Film Studio, a factory full of literary and artistic style, has naturally encountered the so-called 'difficult birth'.

Compared with the films that have won countless awards, most of these literary films are not favored by film companies.

What an embarrassing experience for an old film studio with a glorious history when the movie is made but not sold? It's no wonder that my grandfather always has a sad face when he comes home recently, sighing from time to time, and sometimes looking at the direction of Beijing Film Studio in a daze.

Seeing that Ye Sumang frowned and seemed to be thinking about something, Ye Xian patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "This is an adult's business, you children should not be foolish." You just need to understand this art test! ”

Ye Sumang bent his crescent-like smiling eyes, did not reply, just nodded, and sat back in front of the computer. Although the movie was showing in front of him, his mind could no longer concentrate.

The paradise of his childhood is about to disappear in the progress of society, perhaps the alternation of rise and fall, but he can't help but feel a sense of sadness. In my mind, I am also trying my best to think of a way, how to bring the film studio back to life. Thinking about it, it seems that there is only one way, and that is to make a movie, and it must be a very blockbuster movie.

After being fused with memory fragments, he has very good ideas in his mind that can be made into a script, but considering the current situation of Beijing Film Studio, he must plan the creation of the script within a certain range, that is, to minimize the cost of output.

And the most wasteful thing about a film is undoubtedly only three points, one is the salary of the actors, and the other is the construction fee of the scene, zuihou is the cost of publicity. Ye Sumang's mind flipped, and he matched the inspiration in his mind step by step, striving to form the best combination.

After thinking about it, a day passed, and Ye Sumang did not have a set of plans that were too satisfactory for the time being. However, the days have passed, and the most important thing at present is still the next exam.

At five o'clock in the morning of the second day, as usual, Ye Sumang got up on time and stood on the pile, then bought breakfast to call his grandfather to get up, washed and ate, and looked at the textbook by the way, until the time of the exam was approaching, he leisurely packed his schoolbag and walked towards the Kyoto Film Academy.

Along the way, Ye Sumang did not have a trace of nervousness, only excitement for the upcoming exam, because his dream was about to take an important step.
