The snow this year is not pretty. The snow falling down is mixed with fine impurity particles. When it falls on the ground and is swept to both sides of the road, it looks even more dirty.
This is how it is done in winter in the north, where the snow is piled up in one place and allowed to melt on its own.
At noon, the sun is warm.
Yao Yuan took Yinyin around a pile of snow on the roadside and entered a small barber shop.
The boss, a man in his 30s, was a little surprised when he saw the two of them. Based on their dress and temperament, they usually go to the club to have their hair cut by Tony.
But luckily, Boss Yao can change from frugality to luxury in other aspects, but there is nothing he can do about it.
He hates those fancy barber shops!
"Who cuts the hair?"
"I'll cut it."
"Oh, let's wash up first."
Yao Yuan washed his hair, sat on a chair, touched his half-long hair, and said, "Just cut it short, a little longer than a crew cut."
"OK!"
The boss said he understood, and then he started working. He would never chat with you, recommend this or that, and even let you pay tens of thousands of yuan in membership fees.
Yinyin sat aside and waited. She picked up a magazine and glanced at it a few times. With nothing to do, she looked in the mirror and asked, "Do you want me to cut it?"
"It's not too long. If you want to cut it, just trim it a little."
"Forget it, I'm used to growing my hair now. Before I met you, I had short hair."
"You haven't grown out yet. It doesn't matter if it's short or not. You're a big girl now, and it's not appropriate to cut it any shorter."
Yao Yuan looked at himself in the mirror and asked casually: "Have you seen "Dragon Ball"?"
Um?
The boss was stunned for a moment, then realized and asked himself, "I've seen it a little bit."
"How much does it cost to have a Super Saiyan hairstyle, dyed all red?"
"Well...it depends on what kind of potion you use. The best ones cost hundreds or even thousands, and the cheap ones can cost tens of thousands."
Dozens of dollars!
Yao Yuan nodded secretly, Shamate could still afford it. Think about it, it costs money to do Shamate. Those people all have a certain income, so they can't do it if they don't have money.
Of course Yinyin knew what he was doing and asked: "Are you sure you can gather a huge group?"
“What do you think this group is?”
"Young people from small cities?"
"That's okay, is there anything else?"
"Uh, young people from rural areas? Children who don't study well in cities? Gangsters on the streets?"
"You are still too kind and think in the dark."
"Have no idea."
"Let me tell you, this group highly overlaps with the players of "Audition". "Audition" players do include the types you mentioned, but there is another main audience, which is the second-generation migrant workers."
"Second generation migrant workers?"
Yin Yin savored the word.
"My family is in a rural area, and my parents work outside all year round. They don't study well, or they don't pay much attention to school. I dropped out of school when I was 14, 15, or even 11 or 12 years old. After being introduced by relatives and friends, I came to work in a big city.
Be an apprentice, work in a factory, the environment is closed, there is no contract, you can’t get compensation if your fingers are cut off, and you just look forward to surfing the Internet every month during your break..."
"this……"
It's not that Yin Yin doesn't eat minced meat, but she has never seen it.
Yao Yuan added: "Together these second-generation migrant workers and the people you just mentioned are the same name: marginalized youth!"
"Okay, let's see how it goes?"
The boss's scissors lifted up following Yao Yuan's words and slipped off the last few hair strands.
"The workmanship is good. Can you wash it again?"
"Ok, Ok!"
So I washed my hair again and dried it with a hair dryer.
In a certain era, there was a rumor that someone came to the barber shop to collect the hair residue and use it to make soy sauce - the process is indeed feasible, but it is not clear whether it is true or not.
Yao Yuan gave him five yuan, and the boss made a seemingly ordinary business, but little did he know that in just a few words, an era had changed.
I had just had my hair cut, and the wind was chilly when I went out.
Yinyin put her hat on for him and said with envy: "You men's haircuts are so cheap. Washing, cutting and blow-drying only costs 5 yuan. I only need 10 yuan for any haircut."
"Some stores are not cheap either. Washing, cutting and blow-drying costs hundreds of dollars."
"It's still five yuan for washing and cutting, right?"
"Wow, you're about to leave now!"
snort!
Yin Yin snorted coldly, missing the innocent self she once was.
Less than 3 minutes walk from the barber shop, there is a movie theater. Yes, today the two of them went to watch a movie - "A City of Gold", also known as "A City of Girls with Big Boobs".
Yao Yuan will accompany Yinyin to review each of these blockbuster movies N times a year.
Entering the theater, Zhang Yimou's appeal was not limited, and 90% of the seats were filled. Everyone was excitedly looking forward to the movie, but Yao Yuan looked left and right, wondering if he could buy this theater.
New Jiahe is in the transition period, and personnel from both parties are in the process of connecting, and will then purchase the shares from other shareholders to achieve a true backdoor listing.
Then a cinema management company can be established to specialize in terminal expansion in the mainland.
The earliest titles of "Golden Armor" were "Memories of Autumn", "Double Ninth Festival", "Chrysanthemum Killing", etc. Zhang Yimou felt that this was not possible. He hoped to be as domineering as "The Lord of the Rings", so he chose a poem by Huang Chao:
"The incense formation soaring to the sky penetrates Chang'an, and the whole city is covered with golden armor."
The plot of the movie is based on Cao Yu's play "Thunderstorm".
It sounds unreliable at first glance. It has the same problem as "The Night Banquet". It uses the structure of a drama to set up a movie, and the film is not foreign but not local.
Zhang Yimou has always put form before content. To put it bluntly, he is good at "creating spectacles."
As soon as the movie begins, a spectacle unfolds: in the morning at the palace, hundreds of young maids get up under the urging of the drums to perform. Why do we talk about performing?
Because they were wearing obscene clothes and trousers, they got up one after another and folded the quilts to make the bed, and then sat on the bunks to put on their shoes. The camera showed a close-up of their white thighs hanging down like a forest of meat.
Then came dressing and milking each other.
As soon as the milking scene came out, the whole audience was wowed!
Yinyin frowned and said, "Lao Mouzi has become vulgar!"
"how to say?"
"He used to make "Ju Dou". Although there were erotic passages, they were all for the sake of the story and people. I don't see any necessity for this part, which is just for selling meat."
"Besides, this is an imperial palace. Even the Tang Dynasty was not as crowded as them. The atmosphere is so bad that they are not a good family."
"Ha, they are indeed not a good family."
This family, composed of Chow Yun-fat, Gong Li, Jay Chou, Liu Ye, and Qin Junjie, can be called a perverted family, except for the second prince played by Jay Chou, who is more or less seriously ill.
Gong Li's queen also had an affair with Liu Ye's eldest prince, although they were not biological mother and son.
The film's art style is extremely luxurious, and Wang Shuo called it "decorative." The biggest contribution of this film is the "big breasts girl" theme and the song "Chrysanthemum Terrace".
Later, even "the chrysanthemums were broken and the ground was covered with wounds" was no longer serious...
Overall, Yinyin's viewing experience was better than that of "The Night Banquet", but she was still bored and kept saying:
"Please release your project as soon as possible. I can't stand it anymore. In fact, I didn't think so before. It's because you always say bad movies are bad, and I don't like watching them anymore."
"It will be released next year at the earliest, with "Manslaughter" taking the lead."
"Have the actors been chosen yet?"
"..."
Yao Yuan hadn't thought about it yet, but he casually mentioned three names: "How about Liang Jiahui, Gong Li, and Hao Lei?"
