Through a quick edit, the camera quickly switches between the changes over the years in the street where the noodle shop is located.
Of course, there is also the boss and the boss's wife.
The boss and his wife gradually passed by as time passed, and the years also left traces on them.
The noodle shop has become lively again. The difference is that the noodle shop now has a brand new look from the inside out.
Of course, the noodle shop not only sells noodles, many people have made reservations for New Year’s Eve dinner here, and of course “Yangchun noodles” have also become an indispensable dish.
The only thing that hasn't changed is probably table No. 2. On the happy table, the reservation sign has been placed early.
Friends who know the origin of table No. 2 said nothing, but they are thinking in their hearts that table No. 2 may have to wait in vain again this year?
Customers having New Year's Eve dinner were chatting enthusiastically, drinking and drinking delicious food, or watching the Spring Festival Gala program and laughing from time to time.
It was still snowing heavily outside the store, but inside it was warm as spring and bustling with people.
At this moment, several customers came outside the store. People looked towards the door, and the room suddenly became quiet.
Two young men in straight suits and coats on their arms walked in. At this time, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and with a gentle sigh, the store returned to its previous bustle.
"What a coincidence, the store is already full," the elderly proprietress said apologetically.
Just as he was rejecting the two young men, a woman wearing a brand new coat and scarf came in and stood between the two young men.
People in the store held their breaths and their ears stood up.
"Three bowls of Yangchun noodles, okay?" the woman said calmly with a smile.
Upon hearing this, the face of the landlady suddenly changed. The image of the mother and son that had stayed in her mind more than ten years ago overlapped with the image of the three people in front of her.
The camera focuses on the mother and son, as if time has intertwined, as if they have returned to that night many years ago.
Although time has left deep scars on the three bodies of mother and son, it still makes the landlady feel an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
Even though many years have passed, the landlady still recognized the three of them, mother and son.
The landlady pointed at the three visitors, her eyes meeting those of her husband who was busy at the counter.
"Ah, ah, the boss..."
The sudden appearance of the mother and son from back then made the landlady feel a bit at a loss for a moment.
At this time, one of the two young men spoke.
"We were the customers who had a bowl of Yangchun noodles together, mother and son, on New Year's Eve fourteen years ago. At that time, it was the encouragement of this bowl of Yangchun noodles that enabled the three of us to work together and get through the difficult years.
After that, we moved to my mother’s hometown.”
"I graduated from medical school this year and am now an intern at the University Affiliated Hospital. My younger brother, who has not yet opened a noodle shop, now works in a bank. After discussion, my younger brother and I planned the first extravagant action in our lives. Just like that, today we, mother and son, are three
I came here specially to trouble you to cook three bowls of Yangchun noodles."
The boss and his wife, who were nodding while listening, had tears falling down one after another for some unknown reason.
The regular customers sitting at the table next to the door listened for a long time with a mouthful of noodles in their mouths. Only then did they swallow the noodles and stand up.
"Mrs. Boss, why are you standing there blankly? Aren't you ready to welcome them every New Year's Eve in the past ten years? Come on, invite them to take a seat!"
The voice of an old customer woke up the landlady.
"Hurry, please take a seat!" the landlady said, turning to her husband behind the counter and shouting: "Master, three bowls of Yangchun noodles!"
"Okay, three bowls of Yangchun noodles!" The tearful husband almost lost his voice in response.
In the store, a burst of cheers and applause suddenly broke out.
The camera panned outside the store, and the snowflakes that were still flying, as if in tacit cooperation, stopped at this moment.
The short film is over.
The short film does not tell you dogmatically about spirituality or anything like that.
But this kind of thing that can only be understood but cannot be expressed in words is extremely easy to understand.
People like Fu Guangnan fell into silence for a moment.
What is entrepreneurship?
There is no standard answer to this kind of thing, but the short story "A Bowl of Yangchun Noodles" highlights many things.
At least each of them gained a heavy touch from this mediocre story.
At this moment, no one doubted whether the short film directed by Li Yi was suitable as a promotional film.
Because this kind of film is amazing enough in itself.
This story is actually not complicated, but the many details contained in it are worth pondering. The most important thing is that the stories of many short films feel specious, a bit floating, and not so real.
But this story, this short film, feels so real to people.
"I've finished watching the movie, let's talk about it." Fu Guangnan asked on a whim with a smile.
"Ahem, let me tell you my feelings first. This short film seems to have a simple and short story, but it is really brilliant."
"First of all, my mother's courage is commendable. Three people only ordered a bowl of noodles. For ordinary people, it is difficult to open up to the boss to make such a decision, but for someone who has lost the backbone of the family and still owes a large debt,
For them, they have to do this! This kind of courage when facing adversity is often what people lack the most."
"It's very warm and contented. My brother's words "It's so delicious" are enough to tell that he is still extremely satisfied even if it is just a bowl of clear soup and watery Yangchun noodles. Although my younger brother is small, he is still very satisfied.
They are also very sensible and understand the hard work and needs of their mothers. The love between them is really heart-warming!"
"I think the detail when the boss comes down is really touching. The boss only orders half an extra portion each time. When the landlady asks if he can order three bowls of noodles directly, his answer is really rare.
It is not difficult for us to imagine that ordering a bowl of noodles for three people has already cost the mother a lot of courage. It also shows that what they need is not sympathy or pity, but encouragement. Everyone has their own self-esteem and the boss’s understanding
People's wishes moisturize things silently.
I would like to ask if three bowls of noodles are really given, is it a kind of charity? Then maybe next year, the mother and son will not appear again.
Because what they need is not charity! But respect!”
"I think it is the mother's strength and integrity that are most touching. Not to mention the many old people in our society. In a situation like the mother and son, even if they can't pay for the time being, no one would blame them. But the mother
But he gritted his teeth and insisted on paying off the debt. In fact, for the children, it is not a kind of precept and example."
