Script - "The Meaning of My Existence"
Characters: Wang Yichuan, Yang Zichen, Yang Liu Yiyi, Xu Hao
Narrator: Light travels in a straight line in the same homogeneous medium, as it is written in physics books, and we should take it as common sense. But the hero of this story seems to be slapping in the face, what do you think about this, physics professor?
Narrator: There must be a few of your friends who are the "God of Gamblers" in the exam room, and each time they cleverly avoid all the correct answers, but the protagonist of this story deftly avoids everyone's attention every time......
Narrator: The existence of UFOs and the Nice Monster has not been confirmed, but many people know about their existence. On the other hand, the protagonist of this story, although it does exist, ......
[Scene: A corner of the restaurant]
(All Dark; Chasing light, Wang Yichuan, Yang Zichen)
(The sound of the clock stops when the two hands touch)
Yang Zichen: (Holding a cup in one hand, holding his chin in the other, staring blankly ahead)
Wang Yichuan: (walked in from the door and sat opposite Yang Zichen)
(Both of them reached for the napkin on the table at the same time, and the lights were all bright when they touched each other, ordinary brightness; Chasing the light, the two see each other)
Wang Yichuan: Oh, I'm sorry, have you been sitting here?
Yang Zichen (nodding): Yes
Wang Yichuan: I'm sorry! I thought there was no one here. Sorry, I'll change seats.
Yang Zichen: No need, I'll change it.
Wang Yichuan: No, no, I came later than you.
Yang Zichen: It's okay.
Wang Yichuan: But that's not good, right?
Yang Zichen: Okay, okay, this is a common thing.
Wang Yichuan: Oh, how do you say it? How is it a common occurrence?
Yang Zichen: Hmm...... Blame me for not having a sense of existence. (Take a sip of water) my presence is 0. That's why I'm always unnoticed in this kind of shop. I didn't even have a glass of water, so I was not good at it. It's my fault.
Wang Yichuan: It's the same! Oh, my God! You're just like me! (Stop the waiter) I'm sorry......
Waiter: (Walking directly to the other table where Yang Liu is snuggling) Hello, did you call me? Okay, okay, I got it.
Wang Yichuan: You see, I'm like that too. (I poured myself a glass of water) Even if I am absent from work for two or three days, no one will find out, and there is no sense of existence. But I still get paid, and I feel good, hahaha~ (laughing self-deprecatingly)
Yang Zichen: That's it...... Really! To be honest, I didn't notice you sitting here just now, and I only noticed it when my hand touched it, so I guessed a little. Sure enough, yes! I'm sorry, but I said it......
Wang Yichuan: It's okay, it's okay, I don't have a sense of existence, but I've been trained for a long time. Even automatic doors often won't open!
Yang Zichen: Of course~
Wang Yichuan: So what about sitting on that kind of high-end toilet seat, but the toilet can't sense it, and even if you press the button, there is no warm water coming out?
Yang Zichen: (laughs) I've experienced it in a shopping mall!
Wang Yichuan: God, it's the first time I've met someone of the same level as me!
Yang Zichen: Me too! I don't even have anyone to say these things to.
Wang Yichuan: I don't know if there are people who don't exist, and I can't make friends, right? Oh! By the way, my name is Yichuan.
Yang Zichen: Yichuan, hello. I'm Zichen.
Wang Yichuan: Zi Chen...... (to the waiter) Ah, hello!
(The waiter walks over)
(Wang Yichuan and Yang Zichen looked at each other and smiled)
Yang Zichen: Although I'm used to it, I still get hurt in my heart.
Wang Yichuan: Yes.
Yang Zichen: I really don't get noticed, and I have wondered if I have become a transparent person.
Wang Yichuan: Transparency?
Yang Zichen: Well, not being noticed, not being noticed, this kind of 0 sense of existence can be said to be a transparent person
Wang Yichuan: Transparent people......
Yang Zichen: Don't you think so?
Wang Yichuan: yes, we may not be found out if we are walking around the street naked...... Oh, I'm kidding! No matter what, you won't go shopping naked or anything......
Yang Zichen: However, when I think about it, I always want to do something big.
Wang Yichuan: Do something big?
(Dim lighting; Chasing the light Yang Zichen, Wang Yichuan)
Yang Zichen: We who have been looking for evidence of existence since birth, and if we continue to be transparent like this, we will end our lives in doubt about our own existence.
Wang Yichuan: I understand, but what is the big deal?
Yang Zichen: For example...... Rob, rob, silver, line! (Thunderbolt sound effect, Wang Yichuan knocks over the teacup)
Yang Zichen: Oh, don't be nervous, naturally it's not threatening others to take the money out, but we transparent people take the money naturally, maybe it's not a robbery.
[Several men in black (field workers) took the table and chairs off the field]
[Scene: Walking out of the restaurant, on the way]
(Medium-intensity light; Light Chaser)
Wang Yichuan: Is it okay if you don't pay? Even if the clerk doesn't notice me, I always leave the money on the side of the cash register. It was a bully meal just now...... (Walking, dodging passers-by)
Yang Zichen: That's it, that's what we've been wrong so far. Even what we eat is taken out by ourselves in the kitchen, isn't it? The fault is not with those of us who are unaware. Ay...... Forget it, stop cooperating with people who can't detect us!
Wang Yichuan: But ......
Yang Zichen: It's time to let the group of people who ignore us cry. It's time for our revolution of transparent people to begin! We must let them who ignore us know how good we are!
Wang Yichuan: What are you talking about? You're not really going to rob a bank, are you?
Yang Zichen: Yes. After meeting you, I became even more convinced of this idea, it is not unlucky, but lucky. This is a superpower given to us by God!
Wang Yichuan: What is a transparent person...... (The sanitation worker played by Yang Liu Yiyi swept the floor in the direction of Wang Yichuan) (Wang Yichuan dodged) is a joke!
Yang Zichen: It should be able to do it. If it's with you as a partner. (The two sincerely shake hands)
Wang Yichuan: Partner?!
Yang Zichen: But since you don't worry, let's fully confirm it before this and see if we are transparent?
(The light is low-light; Chase the light on both sides; The sound effect is the sound of traffic & street)
(The two went to pose next to the person who took the picture starring Yang Liuyi; Wang Yichuan and Yang Zichen couldn't touch Yang Liu Yiyi next to them, and then made various moves)
Wang Yichuan/Yang Zichen: I see there are street performances over there......
(The two run into the street and do strange things like crazy.) )
[Scene: Tennis court]
(Low light; Chasing light in the middle)
(Two dodge incoming tennis balls)
Wang Yichuan: I didn't expect it to come to this extent, I haven't tried it before.
Yang Zichen: Hahaha (laughing awkwardly) I feel that since I met you, my sense of existence has become weaker.
Wang Yichuan: Me too. This should be the ironclad proof that we are transparent people.
Yang Zichen: (talking to himself) Yes, we can! Definitely the perfect plan!
Wang Yichuan: In the past, I was blaming myself, and it was my fault that I didn't have a sense of existence. But it's actually really unpleasant! Ignored by society to such an extent! Zichen, let me tell you, in fact, this morning, someone suddenly came to my house, it was an intermediary and a couple who came to see the house. I walked out of the door in a panic and saw that my house was actually renting! Others thought it had been uninhabited for a long time.
(Wang Yichuan suddenly put on a strange posture)
Yang Zichen: What kind of trouble are you doing?
Wang Yichuan: Karate (first smug and then sigh). I've been learning since I was a kid in order to get in shape. Later I found out that people who would not be noticed did not maintain any strong physique at all, and even boys, let alone girls, would not look at me. So I didn't practice the other day. I don't practice anymore, and I guess no one in the dojo will find out, hey...... Zichen, it's good to meet you. If I hadn't met you, I would have been a lonely and transparent person for the rest of my life. I've decided! Leave alive evidence together! Let's do it, a revolution that only we transparent people can do!
Yang Zichen: Yichuan!
(The two shook hands and stared, and the background sound was Peng Jiahui's "Seeing Each Other and Hating Night")
(Yang Zichen is hit by the ball)
(Wang Yichuan was stunned and was also hit)
(The two run away in a panic)
(Light Chaser)
[Scene: Bank]
(Plain Bright Light; Chasing light, Wang Yichuan, Yang Zichen)
Vice President: Welcome! (To the dog in the hands of the noble lady customer played by Yang Liu Yiyi [toy dog substitution]) little cutie, welcome!
Wang Yichuan: Look at the branch president with a vibrant smirk and greeting the dog. Didn't even look at me.
Yang Zichen: Me too, it's really a dog's strength, don't we even have a sense of existence as a dog?
Wang Yichuan: But it shows that we are in good shape today.
Yang Zichen: Yes!
Wang Yichuan: yes, show time, now!
Wang Yichuan's inner monologue: The battle is very simple, walk into the counter together, and then quietly take the cash in front of the window, so that the society that continues to ignore us can be shocked, and the revolution initiated by transparent people for the first time in history has succeeded.
(The two go their separate ways and grimace at each other)
Bank clerk voiceover: Huh? Gone? I just put it here.
(The vice president looks around for the disappeared money, and at the same time nods to the customer, Yang Liuyi.) )
Yang Zichen (self-confidence): Don't panic, you will definitely not be discovered!
Wang Yichuan: Of course. A transparent person who will panic is not a qualified transparent person.
Yang Zichen: Let's go quickly, it's going to close soon.
Wang Yichuan: Okay.
(The two walk towards the door)
Yang Zichen: However, this revolution is really unexpectedly simple, and I think the same as I thought.
Wang Yichuan: Now as long as we get out of this door, we will succeed
(The automatic door did not open, and duang and duang slammed into the door)
Wang Yichuan (covering his head): There has been, convention.
Yang Zichen: Hey...... I actually missed such a detail.
Wang Yichuan: Standing together without opening the door, how much do we have no sense of existence?! At this time, you can only think about it......
Yang Zichen, Wang Yichuan: Wait!
Wang Yichuan (laughs): It seems that this is our iron rule.
(Someone comes in from the outside)
Wang Yichuan: In this way, it can finally be ......
(The two were just about to go out, but they were knocked down by the real robber played by Xu Hao who rushed into the door, and the automatic door closed again)
(The lights of the audience flickered, ordinary bright; Light Chaser)
Xu Hao robber: (Raise the gun [toy gun props]) Don't make noise! Rob! Raise your hands obediently! Hey, don't make a fuss!
Yang Zichen: Door, door......
Wang Yichuan: It's the real one, the real robbers are coming!
(Wang Yichuan and Yang Zichen ran to the automatic door and jumped on the spot, but the automatic door did not open)
Xu Hao robber: Put the money in this pocket.
Vice President: Money is not a problem, but now the problem is that there is no money......
Xu Hao robber: How can there be no money in the bank! You lied to a three-year-old child, and if you talk nonsense, be careful that I will kill you! Put the money in!
Vice President: (crying and kneeling and hugging his thighs) Grandpa spares his life! I still have money just now, and in the blink of an eye, there is nothing! Grandpa spares his life!
(Roller shutter door closed)
Xu Hao robber (surprised, pointing at the noble lady Yang Liuyi): You also squat on the ground for me, don't move!
Yang Zichen: It's really hard for people to be seen, but fortunately we are transparent.
Wang Yichuan: But when can we go out? ← at the same time→ Xu Hao robbers: You guys come over to me too!" (Shoots at no one behind him, gun sound effect)
Yang Zichen: I'm scared to death...... Don't be intimidating!
(Low light; Chasing light, Wang Yichuan, Yang Zichen)
(Wang Yichuan was shot, and the bag full of money fell to the ground)
Yang Zichen: Yichuan? Egawa! Yichuan, are you alright?
Wang Yichuan: Transparent people can still be shot?!
Yang Zichen: Yichuan, are you okay? (Hold Wang Yichuan's hand, hold Wang Yichuan into his arms, and squat slowly)
Wang Yichuan: Zichen, maybe I'm going to die if I don't even notice that I've been shot......
Yang Zichen: Please wait a minute, don't die! What am I going to do if you're not here! My friend is only you. (Robber: You're fooling me) and only you recognize my existence. (Robber: Where's the money?!) If you die like this, and the robbery fails, and no one notices when you die, there really won't be any evidence of your life! Wang Yichuan! (Robber: I don't believe it!) If I don't get the money today, you don't want to live. )
Wang Yichuan: Zi Chen...... Tell me, if we get the money without any problems...... What the hell are we going to do with all this money?
Yang Zichen: What to do? Buy a lot of things, of course! Buy whatever you want!
Wang Yichuan (wry smile): But... You don't pay for your meal. Whatever you want, just get it yourself.
Yang Zichen: This ...... This!
Wang Yichuan: Zichen, we planned the robbery in order to take revenge on those who ignored us, but this kind of trivial matter ...... This kind of humiliating thing can be done by people who can be seen. We are transparent, and now we really should do something that only we can do, something that we can be proud of! (Hands raised, fists clenched, fingers pointed at robbers)
Yang Zichen: What can we do......
Wang Yichuan: Zichen, to prove, to prove that we are alive, to prove the meaning of our existence! For you, and for me!
Yang Zichen: We have the meaning of existence......
(Yang Zichen put down Wang Yichuan, got up, and dimmed the light; Chasing Yang Zichen, slowly but firmly walking towards the robbers)
(Xu Hao's robbers, group performances freeze still)
Yang Zichen (inner monologue): I have no sense of existence since I was an infant, my mother forgot that she was carrying me behind her back and looking for me all over the house, this is the earliest memory of my life. When I was in middle school, the boy I confessed to said to me, "I'm sorry, who are you?" When I heard him say that, I was devastated. In the third year of entering the society, I went on a trip to team building, but I thought I had taken a leave of absence and received a gift from a colleague.
(Yang Zichen's body is ordinary bright; Light Chaser)
Yang Zichen sprinted forward and knocked down the robber with a punch + (at the same time) shouted: We! Yes, there is!
(The hostages are surprised to see the robbers fall, and the robbers Xu Hao also have an incredulous expression)
Wang Yichuan (to Yang Zichen): Great, Zichen, I did it! We've left evidence of our lives alive! (Voice fades)
Yang Zichen (relieved, nodded slowly, looked back and saw that Wang Yichuan was getting weaker and weaker, and immediately ran back to him): Yichuan! Egawa! How are you?
(Low light; Chasing the light and rushing into the police, robber Xu Hao)
Police: Don't move! Hands up!
(The group performers who starred in friendship also rushed in together)
Xu Hao robber (getting up from the ground): Bastard, who is plotting against me?
Police: You don't know anything about power! I'll let you get down!
Xu Hao robber: I'm unlucky today, planted in your hands!
(The light police, robber Xu Hao dim, the light focuses on Wang Yichuan and Yang Zichen)
Yang Zichen: Yichuan! You've got to hold on, I... I'm going to find someone!
Wang Yichuan: It's okay Zichen. You see, we did it. Compared to robbing a bank, this... Wouldn't it be better?
Yang Zichen: What a good thing! If only you knew that it would end up like this...... Ay! I regret it!
Wang Yichuan: Zichen, don't regret it. Haven't we already had the highlight of our lives? Anyway, I'm just going to live like this, and maybe no one will feel like us for the rest of my life. Now there is a sense of satisfaction, don't be sad, how handsome we are when we come and go without a trace. I wonder if my body will return to people's sight after I die?
Yang Zichen: Nonsense! You must not die, if you die, I will be alone again. Besides, there's a lot more to do!
(Yang Zichen turned his head around, grabbed Wang Yichuan, and grabbed the passing police.) )
Policeman (shouting in surprise): Oh my God, there are two more people here, and a wounded man! Come on!
Yang Zichen: Yichuan, don't worry. Although I know that as soon as we let go, we will disappear in their eyes, but I will not let go, you will be fine!
Wang Yichuan: Ahhh We've found a little bit of meaning to exist, right?
Yang Zichen: Shh~ Stop talking, being alive is the meaning of our existence. We're just getting started, we haven't found what we hold dear, we haven't felt much joy yet, how can we end? It seems that even if you are a transparent person... You can also find your own meaning. Thank you, Yichuan. (Yang Zichen pulls both hands tighter.) )
(End)
