Chapter 256: The Old Man and the Child (Addendum 45)

I have to say, Xiao Chen. Why don't you change jobs? Come to our TV Art Center, I'll give you a deputy director, how about it? ”

Director Zhang looked at what Chen Ming wrote overnight last night, not so much a script as a book of stories, and said with a slug of temptation.

"The main group has become a deputy division~"

"Fuck off. Xiao Chen, don't listen to this old immortal fool. Your work now is good and meaningful! This short film has a good story, and I personally strongly support it. ”

Chen Ming's story is not complicated, and the main line can be said to be very simple.

When the old man was on the job, he suffered a setback in his work for the development of our aircraft carrier career. When he looked irritable and tired, he returned home and saw the young child next door being forced to practice by his mother, and he also looked in pain.

Seeing the child's face with the same expression as himself, the old man smiled. After that, when the old man got off work, he often brought some candy and snacks to his children, and over time, the old and the young gradually became familiar.

One day, the old man was wronged at work, and despite his best efforts to control his emotions, he was discovered by a sensitive child. The child who was originally playing in the yard ran over and asked the old man, "Grandpa, why are you crying?" Did someone bully you?

The old man choked up and said, because we don't have an aircraft carrier, and a navy without an aircraft carrier is a weak navy. If you are weak, you will be bullied.

After hearing the old man's words, the child innocently asked, Grandpa, what is an aircraft carrier?

Then the child continued, Grandpa, don't be afraid, when I grow up, I will definitely buy an aircraft carrier for my grandfather.

The child naively thought that the aircraft carrier was no different from the candy that the old man brought to him on weekdays.

The old man smiled kindly and touched the child's head, but did not speak.

At this time, the camera turns, and time accelerates. Soon the old man moved out of the yard because of a job transfer. The toddlers of that year have also grown up.

Children who are already young may have forgotten their grandfather back then. In college, I spent my days in a stiff and muddy way.

On a dark night, under the dim street lamp, the child was confessing to the girl he liked. And the child, who has always been mediocre, was naturally rejected by the goddess.

At this moment, a night wind blew, and a flyer on the recruitment of college flight cadets by the naval aviation was blown to the feet of the disheartened child.

The child, who just wanted to escape from reality, went to the armed forces department of the school the next day to sign up.

Luckily, he passed all the processes of recruiting flyers.

And the mediocre child, entered the army. I found that I was still the tail of the crane, small and transparent. Always fly bad subjects taught by instructors.

The angry instructor couldn't help but scold, what are you doing when we are HNA? With your kind of results, if you still fail in the next assessment, I will let you go. People like you, if you get on an aircraft carrier, you will only kill your comrades.

Aircraft carrier?! Aircraft carrier!

The instructor's angry scolding was like a key, which instantly opened the child's dusty memory. The child thought of his grandfather friend when he was a child.

I thought of the simple sweets and pastries of the year, and thought of the appearance of the grandfather I was most looking forward to every time I practiced the piano in pain.

In the child's heart, it was his most carefree and happiest time. The childish phrase "Grandpa, don't be afraid, I'll buy you an aircraft carrier in the future" echoed in the ears of children at the moment.

It was as if he had found his purpose in life.

With the goal of the child, train and study hard. With a shy face, I went to ask my classmates and instructors. Practice on the simulator over and over again.

In the end, the child succeeded. He became one of the first pilots to board an aircraft carrier, advising on the establishment of an aviation department on board an aircraft carrier. Or at a time when the aircraft carrier was not delivered.

Just as the children boarded the ship, an old man slowly left the ship surrounded by everyone.

On the ramp passage of this aircraft carrier, which has not yet been delivered, an old man and a young man meet again. Neither recognized the other, but it felt vaguely familiar.

After the mistake, the two looked back in unison and saw that each other was looking at themselves. Give each other a kind smile. They still didn't recognize each other.

Then time accelerated, and the child was busy on the aircraft carrier. Until the first trial voyage of the aircraft carrier, on the other side of the picture, the old man passed away.

The child, who did not know all this, continued his work until the year after the delivery of the aircraft carrier. The aircraft carrier force elected representatives to pay tribute to the old man who had fought all his life for the cause of the aircraft carrier, and the child was chosen.

After the memorial service, the children's comrades-in-arms left. Only the child felt that the old man on the tombstone was familiar, so he stayed and looked at it quietly.

At this time, the memories of my childhood came back to my mind again. He remembered who the old man was, and at this time, the picture began to rewind to show the two of them getting along.

The warm interaction when they were children flashed back and forth until the two looked back on the gangway of the aircraft carrier.

"How are you going to write the epilogue?"

Director Zhang knew that it was impossible for him to pry the corners of the wall. Not to mention whether he can pry it or not, the leaders on the Haizheng side are not fools, how can they put people on their own. After making a small joke, Director Zhang also seriously discussed the content of this short film.

"I would like to dedicate this film to those who are silently fighting for the cause of aircraft carriers."

Chen Ming thought about it for a while and spoke. In the short film, Chen Ming deliberately designed the two not to recognize each other, also to highlight this point. In reality, the people who are fighting for the cause of aircraft carriers are far more than Chen Ming, who are on board.

The superior leaders have no reservations, almost want to give anything; The hard work of the technicians, the test again and again of every component that may be needed on the aircraft carrier; The soldiers in the army, for the military technology that needs to be mastered on the aircraft carrier, repeated drills and so on.

The aircraft carrier is capable of launching and is able to form combat strength so quickly. It is inseparable from the people in every link, who pay in obscurity.

For aircraft carriers, they are all heroes.

And most of the heroes, not to mention unknown. Even Chen Ming, who was on the ship, may not be able to know their names throughout his life.

"Good. Not much else, I support this short film 100%. ”

After hearing what Chen Ming said, Head Liu slapped his thigh and said immediately.

As the son of the old commander, he is also an immediate family member. If he doesn't agree, then Chen Ming's short film will not be filmed at all, and now hearing the statement of head Liu, Chen Ming breathed a sigh of relief.

This meal was not in vain!

"Okay, Xiao Chen, what about you on the communication ship. I'll go back and set up the project immediately, and then submit it for review. After all, the level you are involved in is a bit sensitive, but with Captain Liu's statement, I personally estimate that the problem is not big, and I will try my best to promote this matter. ”

"Okay, then I'll thank the two uncles here!"

After Chen Ming heard Director Zhang's words, he picked up his wine glass.

"Cheers!"
