In the previous generation, those born in the 1980s were also called the Beat Generation. However, when Wu Jianye was reborn, those born in the 1980s had already become the backbone of social development. Later, there were those who slandered the 1990s generation and the 00s generation.
The tone of a generation.
In fact, in Wu Jianye's opinion, this is an argument deliberately thrown out by some people in order to seek a sense of existence. As long as it does not conform to the image in their minds, they will be defeated.
What these people always see are the dark side tones, slandering these young people to highlight their own existence, but in fact they have never really understood this generation at all. Each generation will have its own special characteristics as the times develop.
Society should give more encouragement rather than beating people to death.
What's more, when they were young, weren't they also called the least promising generation?
Director Bai Chen was very satisfied after listening to Wu Jianye's narration. Although he was still a little dissatisfied with Wu Jianye's status as the film's deputy director, he had already put aside his prejudices.
"Yes, you are a young man with ideas. In the old residential area under the Shanghai Sanguantang Bridge, there are many unemployed young people and self-employed people who jumped in line to return to the city. It was only after I saw their excellent qualities that I
I had such an idea, but I didn’t expect you to have already walked in front of me.”
Wu Jianye said quickly: "In the future, please give Director Bai more guidance!"
Bai Chen: "I have watched your performance in "The Peacock Princess" and it was very good. However, the filming of "Under the Bridge" this time is completely different from the previous filming, so even if you are the screenwriter of this film, if
If you can't pass the audition, I can't let you take on the role of Gao Zhihua, the male lead, do you understand?"
Wu Jianye: "This is natural. Don't worry, Director Bai, I will definitely not let you down!"
"It's useless to talk big. If you don't perform well, just work as a screenwriter for me!" Bai Chen still didn't feel comfortable letting Wu Jianye be his assistant director.
Wu Jianye said nonchalantly: "Actually, being an assistant director is pretty good. I'm quite satisfied if I can learn some knowledge from Director Bai!"
"Humph, young people should be down-to-earth. If it works, it works, if it doesn't work, it doesn't work." Director Bai suddenly became serious: "How about this, you prepare first, and we will have a formal audition tomorrow morning?"
"Okay!" Although Wu Jianye didn't know why Director Bai changed so quickly, he still agreed.
No matter whether Wu Jianye will be chosen to play the role of Gao Zhiwei or not, Wu Jianye's identity as screenwriter will definitely not change, so the Shanghai Film Studio has also prepared a dormitory for Wu Jianye.
Wu Jianye thought for a while, anyway, he was no longer needed at the Shanghai Film Factory, and all the connections that should be maintained were maintained. It would be better to move to the Shanghai Film Factory now, so that he could better participate in "Under the Bridge"
Going to shoot.
"Lao Dai, do you have time to come back with me to move some luggage?" Wu Jianye asked.
Dai Zhaoan had already recovered from the initial embarrassment and said with a smile, "No problem. I'll change to a tricycle later. It will be easier to move things."
"That's okay!" Wu Jianye had no objection to this.
After the two returned to Shanghai Film Studio, everyone also knew that Wu Jianye was going to Shanghai Film Studio to participate in the filming of a new movie, and they all came forward to congratulate them.
Wu Jianye looked around and asked Chu Qingfeng, who was congratulating him: "Why didn't you see Wang Zhen? Where are the others? He didn't even show up when I moved today?"
Chu Qingfeng looked a little dazed: "Oh, forget it, Wang Zhen is in trouble, and he asked for leave from the factory this morning!"
Wu Jianye then remembered that he had seen Wang Zhen's absent-minded expression a few days ago, so he asked, "Do you know what happened?"
Wu Jianye admired Wang Zhen's painting skills very much and was a talent he would need in the future, so Wu Jianye was very concerned about Wang Zhen's situation.
"Hey, don't mention it. Brother Wang's mother suddenly fell seriously ill some time ago. Brother Wang is worried about this!" Chu Qingfeng said.
"Are you sick? Does the factory care about you?" Wu Jianye asked curiously.
No matter how many problems there are in this era, one good thing is that as long as you are an employee of the factory, the factory will take care of it whether you are sick or your family members are sick!
"No matter what, although the factory reimbursed his mother's hospitalization expenses, the remaining care and recuperation are a huge expense. Brother Wang's family of four only relies on his salary.
How can he have enough money to support his mother's illness?" Chu Qingfeng said helplessly.
Wang Zhen's father had already passed away during the turmoil, leaving them orphaned and widowed. Wang Zhen was the eldest son of the family, and his younger siblings were still young. It can be said that the entire burden of the family fell on him alone.
After getting along with each other for this period of time, Wu Jianye already knew Wang Zhen’s family situation.
"Do you know where Wang Zhen lives?" Wu Jianye asked.
Chu Qingfeng nodded and said: "I know, we have all gone to see it!"
"Then take me over and take a look!" Wu Jianye said.
Wang Zhen's family lives in a typical alley in Shanghai. The alleys in Shanghai and the courtyards in Yanjing are both relatively famous. However, when Wu Jianye walked into the alleys, he found that the alleys were more beautiful than the courtyards in Yanjing.
The courtyards in Yanjing still have a courtyard, but the alleys in Yanjing don’t even have a courtyard. There are also many families living in the same building, making it even more crowded.
"Brother Angkor, Brother Wang and his family live here. Wait a minute, I'll shout for you." Chu Qingfeng stood downstairs and shouted, and saw Wang Zhen leaning out of the window with a tired look on his face.
When Wu Jianye arrived, he hurriedly walked down.
"I heard that you went to Shanghai Film Studio, why are you here now?" Wang Zhen asked embarrassedly.
Wu Jianye handed the fruits and nutritional supplements he brought to Wang Zhen and asked, "How is the old lady doing?"
"Still lying on the bed!" Wang Zhen sighed.
"Let me go see the old man!"
"Look at my brain, come up with me!"
Wang Zhen's home was not big, with dozens of square meters and several rooms separated. Wu Jianye followed him into the old lady's room and saw the old lady lying on the bed alone, with not much color on her face.
Seeing that she was Wang Zhen's colleague, the old lady wanted to sit up. Wu Jianye quickly said no, and chatted with the old lady for a while, and then walked out of the room accompanied by Wang Zhen.
"Brother Wang, take this three hundred yuan first. If you refuse, you don't regard me as a friend! You know that I am alone and have no place to spend money. Now is the time for you to use money. If you use it,
I'm a friend, so don't be polite!" Wu Jianye pressed the money into Wang Zhen's hand.
Wang Zhen looked at Wu Jianye with excitement, "This...how can this be so embarrassing?"
Wu Jianye smiled and said, "Just take it. If you feel embarrassed, just ask Brother Wang to help me when I ask you for something in the future!"
This sentence fell on Wang Zhen's ears. Naturally, Wu Jianye wanted to reassure himself. After spending time with Wu Jianye, he knew that Wu Jianye was a very capable person. How could he ask for help?
