Chapter 67: The Chrysanthemum Blossoms Bloomed That Year (Ask for Recommendation Votes!)
Chu Hang and the three of them came to Wanda International Cinema, Su Liuli looked in high spirits, bouncing on the ground, humming a small tune out of tune in her mouth, but precisely because there was no tune, there was no out-of-tune, it sounded pretty good, coupled with her pretty face full of youth, walking all the way down the street, the return rate was almost 100%.
Although Su Liuli didn't say anything, she refused to praise Chu Hang for a word, but her body was still very honest, and her happy demeanor was obviously very satisfied with Chu Hang's "concert", probably because Chu Hang sang a burning sword drawing divine comedy at the end, and she hadn't come out of that exciting atmosphere yet.
The cinema is very large, the three of them deliberately chose a movie theater with few families, the time is close to two o'clock, "Chrysanthemum Blooms That Year" will be screened soon, but as soon as the three of them walked into the movie theater, they were stunned to find that there were not many people, it was pitiful.
There were only a few dozen people in the viewing seats with hundreds of seats, and there were only three of them in the row of seats they sat in.
"It's good, it's less crowded. ”
Chu Yanran was more satisfied with the fact that there were fewer people.
Chu Hang had an ominous premonition and said, "This person is too few, right?"
Chu Yanran said: "Maybe this movie theater is located in a relatively remote location, right?"
Chu Hang let out a "hmm" and didn't say anything more, but his ominous premonition became stronger and stronger.
There are only two possibilities for a movie to be so few people when it is screened, first, the cinema itself has less customer traffic, and second, the film's reputation is particularly poor.
Chu Hang very much did not want the latter.
"It should be that the title of the movie is not very good, the ambiguity is too big, at first glance it sounds like a literary film, and even literati and artists don't watch literary films anymore. ”
Chu Hang thought so, and suddenly had the urge to take his mobile phone out to check the comments of netizens, but finally held back.
Looking at the evaluations of netizens, they will be spoiled more or less, and most of the evaluations are mixed with the subjective opinions and personal emotions of netizens, whether it is praise or disapproval, there will be exaggerated elements, like brainless blowing, hated brainless black, if you read these evaluations, it will inevitably affect your viewing expectations, no matter how you watch it if your expectations are too high, you don't feel exciting enough, and if your expectations are too low, you can pick out thorns no matter how you watch it.
Chu Hang didn't want to watch an unknown movie with colored glasses, so he never watched the movie beforehand.
"The movie is about to begin. ”
The three of them prepared popcorn and drinks and sat down in their seats, Su Liuli and Chu Yanran had high expectations, but Chu Hang was already mentally prepared to sleep halfway.
......
......
"That Year the Chrysanthemum Bloomed", slowly kicked off in a burst of soft country music, the initial shot is a little boy and a little girl, the two are about four or five years old, they are playing in the rice field, the little boy uses straw to weave a rough ring, put it on the little girl's hand, and asks, "Yin Yin, marry me, okay?"
The little girl Su Yinyin pouted and said, "No, we are only four years old!"
The little boy Chu Hangzhou exclaimed angrily: "Why not! We are not three-year-old children again!"
The little girl was stunned for a long time before she whispered, "Mother said...... To ...... Sixteen?"
The little boy thought for a moment, put the straw ring on the little girl's middle finger, and said loudly, "Then make an appointment, marry me when you are sixteen!"
The little girl nodded vigorously and laughed happily......
This is a very old-fashioned and vulgar beginning, and the stalks are all old stalks, and this kind of dog food plot that forcibly raises the IQ of children makes people feel embarrassed to watch.
But that's all not the point.
The point is...... The hero and heroine seem to be childhood sweethearts, and it happens that one is surnamed Chu and the other is surnamed Su!
Chu Hang felt the deep malice from the screenwriter, and Su Liuli's expression on the side suddenly changed.
The movie screen quickly switched to a black screen in a brisk BGM, and the subtitle wrote "Twelve years later", yes, I will be sixteen years old in the blink of an eye.
Next, the movie actually began to introduce the changes in the past 16 years in the form of narration, which made Chu Hang deeply doubt for a while whether the director's choreographing and directing level had graduated from elementary school.
The changes in the past 16 years can probably be summed up in two paragraphs.
The girl grew up, became very quiet, and wore glasses and did not like to dress up, and looked very old-fashioned, but she still had a crush on the boy.
The boy grew up, became cynical, dyed Matt's hair, not only dropped out of school but also spent all day idle, lingering in bars and nightclubs, immersed in the ** life of flirting with girls in nightclubs, and had long forgotten the promise of marrying a girl at the age of sixteen, and he had no interest in the rustic girl.
The two are already living in different worlds.
Seeing this, Chu Hang breathed a sigh of relief inexplicably, although there was a strange coincidence between his childhood sweetheart and surname, but the characters were completely different, and he misunderstood the screenwriter.
Chu Hang put his mind at ease and watched the movie, and Su Liuli's quietly clenched little hand finally slowly let go.
The plot of the movie begins to constantly switch between the life scenes of the two people, on one side is the girl's life in school, warm, warm, full of student atmosphere, the girl studies hard during the day, misses the boy at night, lonely but not lonely.
On the other side is the boy's days in the nightclub, chaotic, full of erosive smell, he frequently dates, as a third party, to be a little white face, and even when a duck looking for a chicken, the whole person's eyes are black, the face is yellow, you can see at a glance that the indulgence is excessive, and occasionally there will be conflicts and fights with people in nightclubs, blocking the alleys to blackmail students, and the ruffians are no different.
The two diametrically opposed scenes keep switching, as if the cycle of light and shadow, under the contrast, the light is warmer, the darkness is colder, and the audience can feel the difference at once.
Although the technique is very old, Chu Hang has to be sure that this plot is okay, at least this kind of scene switching is much better than direct narration.
This pair of childhood sweethearts who have lived in two worlds,It seems that there will be no intersection anymore.,Except for the girl's crush and missing,There's no more fetters.,But the story has just begun.,The opportunity will naturally appear at the right time.。
The turning point comes at thirty minutes into the movie, and it's not the boy who wakes up, it's him...... Addicted to drugs.
The boy was addicted to drugs, so he began to be desperately short of money, and the money he earned from being a little white face and being a duck could not satisfy his drug addiction, so he could only extend his claws to his childhood sweetheart...... A lucky one who turned from a rural girl into a princess of the family.
At this time, the movie finally revealed that the reason why the two people lived in two worlds after twelve years turned out to be family reasons, the boy was a rural child, his father was violent, and his mother ran away from home, so he became rebellious.
The girl was also a rural child, but the girl was originally stolen, originally the granddaughter of a wealthy businessman, and was brought back at the age of twelve, and since then the sparrow has become a phoenix and has lived a happy and stable life.
The boy was addicted to drugs and was short of money, and finally thought of becoming a childhood sweetheart who became a rich merchant princess.
The boy dressed himself up and went to meet the girl, and then told all kinds of lies, saying that he was investing in a big project with shortcomings and money, hoping that the girl would be an investor.
The girl has always liked the boy, and she was pleasantly surprised to see him, so she naturally agreed to his request in every possible way, and did not hesitate to give all her private money to the boy.
But the cost of taking drugs was too great, and the boy quickly ran out of money, and he tried to deceive the girl again, and the lie he told was actually very lame, but the girl foolishly believed it every time, and secretly sold all kinds of jewelry and antiques in the house, and gave the boy all the money.
Drugs are like a bottomless black hole, constantly devouring money, and boys are getting deeper and deeper, and girls are getting deeper and deeper.
In the end, the boy didn't even lie, and directly asked the girl for money, and the girl gave it to him every time without saying a word.
Later, the boy finally found out that the girl had known the truth for a long time, and from the beginning he saw through that he was here to cheat money......
The boy couldn't help but ask the girl, why did he keep giving him the money even after seeing through it?
The girl took out the straw ring, smiled and said, "I said that I would marry you at the age of sixteen, and those are all dowries."
The boy was so moved that he wept bitterly, confessed to the girl, and vowed to love her for the rest of his life.
In this plot, Chu Hang looked confused, of course, the reason is that the boy's mood has changed too quickly, a person who is extremely black, how can he say that he is whitewashed?
Chu Hang did not suspect that the boy was not moved by the greatest malice, but because of the word "dowry".
But it has only been an hour since the screening of this ninety-minute movie, and there are still thirty minutes left, Chu Hang guesses that the plot behind will probably try its best to whitewash the boy.
But Chu Hang never expected that the plot of the movie would explode from this moment!
