Chapter 67

A person who can achieve great things will definitely put in more effort and suffer more hardships than ordinary people. He also has to endure the loneliness that ordinary people cannot bear. Now Zhang Shaoyu is suffering in the taste of loneliness.

After seeing Zhang Li away, Zhao Jing away, and finally Liang Jin away. Seeing friends go home and spend the Spring Festival with their families, Zhang Shaoyu felt sad, not only sad, but also sad. After growing up, it was the first time that he had celebrated the Spring Festival alone. Thinking about that feeling, he would feel a sense of chill in his heart.

When he called Yang Tingyao, he always turned off the phone. Zhang Shaoyu didn't know why. The last time he contacted her was the video of that day, the two seemed to have a little unhappy conversation, but with his understanding of Yang Tingyao, she would not be angry about such a trivial matter.

Maybe it's because I'm too busy, so it's not convenient to answer the phone. Zhang Shaoyu thinks so.

It is already New Year's Eve, and tomorrow is the first day of the Chinese New Year, a traditional Chinese festival. Zhang Shaoyu got up early in the morning and started to be busy. He had to pay the Internet fee quickly. It was really uncomfortable without the days online. It seemed that he suddenly became out of touch with the world. Then he was busy going to the supermarket to buy things. Although he was alone, he still had to spend the New Year.

Although the money is not much, it is enough for me to spend for a while. In the crew, it is no problem to earn 30 or 50 yuan a day. Moreover, I became a substitute that day and earned 500 yuan. After paying back Zhao Jing, there were still more than 100 left. Calculate the money I had on my body, and it was a total of 766 or 50 cents. It would be enough for the Spring Festival.

Buying a pound of sausage, two pounds of bacon, dumplings and dumplings is essential. After going to several supermarkets, I finally bought a bottle of Tuopai Qu wine. This is a famous wine produced in my hometown, so I have to support it no matter how much. I came out of the supermarket with a large bag of small bags. Zhang Shaoyu suddenly thought that Tang Kui should not go home, so he should have called him to live with him.

But when I went to the dilapidated yard where they lived, there were not one ghost figure. Maybe they were all going home for the New Year. No matter how poor they were, they still had to be with their family during the New Year.

People on the street were rushing to their homes. It was New Year's Eve, and everyone was rushing home for the New Year. Look at the streets, the lights were decorated and the New Year atmosphere became stronger and stronger. Zhang Shaoyu tightened his clothes and rushed to the school. He had to start planning his own Spring Festival.

Back in the dormitory, turn on the computer first, enter CCTV's website, wait for the live broadcast of the Spring Festival Gala, and then put the rice cooker rack left by Xiaoqian when he left, and cook sausages and bacon. The pork head meat I bought from the cold dish stall outside can be eaten immediately, take it out and put it in my pocket without any extra bowls.

After finishing all this, Zhang Shaoyu sat in front of the computer, waiting for the Spring Festival Gala, and chatting with netizens later. Look at the time, it was 19:00, and at this time, many people should be reuniting with their families. But unexpectedly, there were still people online in the post bar.

Zhang Shaoyu was overjoyed and found out after asking that several netizens were working in other places and couldn't go home, so they could only spend time online and wait for the start of the Spring Festival Gala. Everyone was a little homesick, and Zhang Shaoyu comforted everyone, saying that although we couldn't go home, weren't we together?

On a whim, Zhang Shaoyu posted a post asking everyone to report to count how many people did not go home for the New Year. As a result, there were more than 20 people. At this moment, Zhang Shaoyu arranged it and told everyone to stay online at all times. We eat and drink, watch the party, and chat at the same time. In this way, we won’t feel lonely?

Netizens all praised it, saying that today we have a Spring Festival party in Yushaotou. We are happy. Although we cannot reunite with our family, we can still have a happy life.

On the entire first floor, people were almost exposed, and only Zhang Shaoyu's dormitory was left with lights. But he didn't feel lonely. Looking at the heat gushes in the pot, the warm blessings of netizens on the computer were also a pleasant thing.

The sausage and bacon were cooked, but there was no bowl. So I just brought the pot over and placed it on the table. Then I opened the bottle of white wine, used the bottle cap as a wine glass, poured a full glass of white wine, and said online, "Cheers, friends!"

After drinking a sip of strong wine, the whole person suddenly felt warm. He picked up a whole piece of sausage and took a bite. Well, it smells good! Although it was not that good compared to the ones my grandmother had to drink with her, she was still a little bit less than that of her. But when she was away from home, she had to give it a try.

At 20:00, the Spring Festival Gala began on time. Zhang Shaoyu greeted his friends in the post bar and watched the party together. Drinking and eating meat, and there is also a Spring Festival Gala to watch. Haha, it’s a joy!

There was a knock on the door outside the room. Zhang Shaoyu ran over with a sausage in his mouth. When he opened the door, he saw that it was a boy who didn't know him. The boy seemed a little afraid of Zhang Shaoyu and was so timid that he didn't dare to speak.

"Brother, are you looking for me?" Zhang Shaoyu hurriedly took down the sausage and asked the boy.

"Zhang, Brother Zhang, many of us don't have them. Go home for the New Year. I want to join in and buy some fireworks and firecrackers. It's lively and lively, look..." The boy stuttered, but Zhang Shaoyu suddenly figured out what was going on. There were many poor students in the school, some of whom were from other places. In order to save the bus fare, they did not go home for the New Year.

On New Year's Eve, fireworks and firecrackers were still set off, so Zhang Shaoyu waved his hand, turned around and ran back to the dormitory, took out a wallet from the drawer, took out fifty yuan, handed it to the boy, and asked him to buy it.

"No, Brother Zhang, I can't use this..."

"If you ask you to go, don't talk nonsense, hey, by the way, how many of you haven't returned?" Zhang Shaoyu asked. The boy said there were about a dozen. Zhang Shaoyu planned to ask them all to come to his dormitory and celebrate the New Year together. The boy didn't expect that Zhang Shaoyu, who was famous in the university, was so kind, so he was not too nervous. He ran back and called down all the brothers who had not gone home for the New Year upstairs.

More than a dozen people were crowded. Zhang Shaoyu asked someone to move a desk out, make room, and lay newspapers on the ground. Everyone put all the wine and food they brought on the ground. While watching the Spring Festival Gala, drinking and eating meat. The atmosphere suddenly became warm.

Zhang Shaoyu knew that these brothers were children from poor families, and like himself, he had a strong sense of inferiority, so he tried his best to make himself easy-going and persuade everyone to drink with him diligently. Originally, everyone was a little desolate when they didn’t go home for the New Year, but now, not only are so many people spending the New Year together, but also the elder brother of our school, and the homesickness in his heart have been talked about a lot.

Everyone ate with their stomachs open and fist loudly. For a moment, everyone forgot that this was in a foreign land.

"Come on, junior brothers, senior brothers to wish you a glass. We are all bitter children, and we can't go home to celebrate the New Year with our parents. It doesn't matter. Let's get together, don't you have a good time? Come on, have a drink, and I wish you a New Year's greetings to our parents, and I wish you blessings!" Zhang Shaoyu stood up, raised his glass and said loudly.

The other junior brothers stood up one after another, Brother Zhang toasted and moved more carefully, which was to give us face. There were a few boys who probably didn't see such a scene normally, and they got up all of them and almost fell to the ball of vegetables. They made everyone laugh.

"Come on, do it!"

"Fuck! Brother Zhang, I wish you a happy new year!"

"Brother Zhang, happy New Year!"

The little brothers were drinking a little high, and their voices became louder. A glass of wine fell into his stomach and the conversation started. Many brothers asked Zhang Shaoyu why he didn't go home. Everyone knew in their hearts that Brother Zhang said that everyone was a bitter child, which was to protect everyone's face. Can he be a bitter child? Just a few months ago, I made a lot of money by buying a computer for everyone. This matter spread in school.

Zhang Shaoyu squirted, sighed, and laughed, "It's nothing. My parents are not at home, and there is no one when they go back. I'm staying at school. Aren't we having a very happy life?"

"That's it, that's it. I didn't say anything about it. Come on, Brother Zhang, have another drink!"

"Hey, Brother Zhang, I have always wanted to ask you something, but I don't know if Fang Bufan?" asked a junior brother.

Zhang Shaoyu had a glass of wine, looked at the little brother and said, "It's okay, you say it!"

"Last time you held a conference, you told us that as long as you have confidence, all difficulties can be solved, and students in our junior college can also do well. Did the school leaders ask you to say this?"

Zhang Shaoyu laughed loudly, just kidding, did I, Zhang Shaoyu, use others to teach me how to speak? Looking at the group of brothers, they all looked at him intently, waiting for the answer. Zhang Shaoyu paused the wine glass, hugged his feet and started to scold him.

"No, that's what I said. Brothers, listen to me, we are junior college students and we will indeed receive some unfair treatment in society. This is objective, but it doesn't matter. Who will not encounter any setbacks in a lifetime? Right? It doesn't matter. There is no absolute fairness in the world, so what should I do? Then I have to rely on myself. If I don't talk about others, just say myself. After my brother graduated, he went out to find a job. The one who suffered, was scolded by people everywhere and was angry with people, but at least one thing, I have never really lost confidence.

I don't believe it anymore. Can living people still be urinated to death? Everyone carries two shoulders and one head, no one has three heads and six arms, right? I am a person who refuses to admit defeat. I never believe in evil. Let me tell you, I participated in the Xiaoqiang Cup and now I have advanced to the first place again. My brother's goal is to directly aim at the finals! Also, I am filming now, and the director looks down on me and is willing to give me a chance.

I have worked hard on these things myself! You have also seen that my feet have been inflexible these days, right? I just fell for filming! Our starting point is not as high as others, so we have to be willing to endure hardships and work harder than others. Brothers, no one is better than anyone else, only who is more desperate than anyone else!”

Everyone was very attentive, afraid of missing a word. The elder brother in front of him was definitely a legend in school. Every word he said might be of great help to himself. I originally thought that Brother Zhang was so outstanding, he must have some extraordinary skills or any relationship, but now I know that everything was achieved by himself. Men, real men!

"Come on, Brother Zhang, let's have a drink!" Some little brothers served the wine, and Zhang Shaoyu was not polite, so he took it and drank it, wiped his mouth, and then started talking.

"I know that the brothers here are all in poor family conditions. Their parents worked hard to support you in school, facing the loess and facing the sky! You should not be too arrogant, nor should you lose confidence, because our parents are pointing at their own future, right?

Men have to be a man with their chests up. It is not their fault for being poor. We must work hard to change this situation. I said at the conference that I am willing to be your wayfinding stone to see if we junior college students can make a good fortune. Now, although there is nothing to say, it is still hopeful.

So, brothers, no matter when, you must have confidence in yourself. There are only things that you can't imagine, and nothing that you can't do. The richest man in the world, Bill Gates, hasn't even studied in college. We are at least better than him. We are still a college student at least, right? Work hard, don't back down when encountering any difficulties, and move forward bravely. After ten or twenty years, I can guarantee that some of your people here will be entrepreneurs, some of them will be scientists, wearing famous brands, and driving sports cars. At that time, if we can still get together, we won't be like today. Let's go to a five-star hotel to open a VIP VIP room, order a table of delicacies, and drink happily!"

If there was a photographer at this time, he would have taken a photo of historic significance. A group of simple boys surrounded by a young man with an ordinary appearance but heroic face. The young man waved his hand and was talking to everyone. The young men around him all showed admiration on their faces, and their eyes were shining with confidence. They were like a group of loyal followers looking up at their leader.

"Ah! It's almost twelve o'clock, let's go and set off fireworks!" Someone shouted. Only then did everyone realize that several hours had passed since the short party. Everyone was in a hurry and picked up the fireworks and firecrackers he bought and ran out of the dormitory.

Zhang Shaoyu was very excited and was the first to rush out of the dormitory and rushed to the playground below the dormitory.

On New Year's Eve, there were no one else in the school. These young people who left their hometown gathered on the playground, happily setting off firecrackers and fireworks. Everyone seemed happy and had no loneliness at all. This year's Spring Festival should be the most meaningful thing. A group of "in a foreign land and being a stranger" gathered together to bless each other. Moreover, most importantly, there was a senior brother, a legendary figure in the school. His words greatly inspired everyone.

Yes, no matter whether we are poor or junior college students, we should not lose confidence in ourselves. Remember the words of my senior brother, there are only things that we cannot imagine, and nothing we cannot do.

"Brother Zhang, come on!" a junior brother shouted. Zhang Shaoyu was already a little drunk. He took advantage of the drunkenness and agreed readily. Everyone retreated collectively and gave up their position to Zhang Shaoyu.

Taking out the lighter, Zhang Shaoyu squatted down, found the lead of the fireworks, and reached over the lighter.

"Bang!" A fire cloud rose into the sky and exploded instantly, changing with many colors. At the same time, the junior brothers behind them also burst into cheers. Looking at the flames rising into the air, everyone jumped like children, cheering, fireworks, Yinghong, the heroic faces of these young men.

Zhang Shaoyu looked up at the beautiful fireworks, and a knowing smile appeared on his face.

After setting off the fireworks, everyone left and went back to their dormitory to sleep. The wine was too high and they were dizzy. Zhang Shaoyu returned to the dormitory and shook his dizzy head. He was about to fall asleep, but his phone rang.

Pick it up and look at it. Zhang Li called.

"Hey, Xiaoli?" As soon as Zhang Shaoyu picked up the phone, he called out the famous advertisement.

Zhang Li laughed on the phone: "I feel relieved when I hear your words. I am afraid that you will feel lonely when you are alone in school, but do you sound very happy?"

"Of course, I just drank wine with a group of brothers and set off fireworks. Why, aren't you sleeping yet?" Zhang Shaoyu said with a smile.

"I miss you, I can't sleep." Zhang Li said with a smile, either knowing whether it was a joke or serious one.

As the saying goes, alcohol can make you mess up your sexual desire, and this is not false at all. When Zhang Shaoyu heard Zhang Li's words, he blurted out: "Do you want me to hold you so that you can sleep? I remember that in high school, every time we went out, we had to hold you so that you could fall asleep, haha..."

Zhang Li was not angry because Zhang Shaoyu said just now that he drank wine and the man said two kinds of things, one was to go crazy and talk nonsense after drinking, and the other was to speak truth after drinking, and Zhang Li would rather believe the latter.

"Okay, just know that you are happy, I have to go to bed." Zhang Li said.

Zhang Shaoyu was still joking around there, and Zhang Li laughed out loud: "Okay! Cover your quilt tonight and don't catch a cold. Just like that, after the New Year, I will come back to accompany you as soon as possible. By the way, be careful!" After that, he hung up the phone.

"Hmm? Hang up?" Zhang Shaoyu took the phone down and confirmed that Zhang Li had hung up. He was about to put down the phone and go to bed. He accidentally found that there were several missed calls on the phone, which were Yang Tingyao. Maybe he was setting off fireworks just now, so he didn't hear it, but it didn't matter, just call back.

A beeping sound came from the phone, but after a moment, the sound of money being cut suddenly came out.

"Deficit, what the hell is going on? Hang up my phone?" He was so dizzy that he didn't want to call anymore. He threw his phone under the pillow and fell asleep. At this time, Zhang Shaoyu slept very comfortably and even had a spring dream. However, the woman in the dream was not Yang Tingyao.

Chinese people celebrate the New Year. Before New Year's Eve, they bid farewell to the old days, and from the first day of the New Year, they welcome the new. Starting from the new year, everything is renewed, and everything appears in a new look. Zhang Shaoyu is naturally no exception. Since he is alone in another place, he should make himself happier.

I woke up early in the morning, washed my face, brushed my teeth, shaved, and after washing, I flipped my clothes in my suitcase and finally chose a set of clothes. It was given to him by Zhao Jing. Last time I accompanied her to the hospital for treatment, she bought several sets of clothes for Zhang Shaoyu in one go. I have never worn this suit.

Zhang Shaoyu has a habit of wearing a suit. He never wears a tie and wears a good set of clothes on his body. He just wants to tie a strap. If he fights and people catch it, you can't even move.

I cooked twenty frozen dumplings I bought in the supermarket yesterday. While turning on my computer, I posted on my own post, I greeted netizens for a New Year, then ate the dumplings, and even gave myself a red envelope. Then I went out happily.

In Zhang Shaoyu's memory, the New Year should be when people come and go on the streets, and everyone dressed in festive clothes and said to each other for their wealth. The children were holding piles of snacks in their hands, or they were holding a balloon in their hands and were held by adults, and were happily happy.

But as soon as I got on the street, I realized that it was not the case at all. It turned out that there were not many people on the bustling street today, and the shops were closed, making them deserted. Where did this person go?

Zhang Shaoyu originally wanted to go out to the streets to find the feeling of the New Year, but in this way, he would lose all his mood. People wouldn’t stay at home during the New Year, right? On the first day of the New Year, aren’t they going out to walk around?

With a puzzled mood, Zhang Shaoyu continued to stroll, and later came to Tianfu Square. Hehe, it turned out that people were here. At this time, the square was crowded with people, and at first glance, it looked like a market in the countryside. Zhang Shaoyu was in a good mood and walked in quickly.

It’s the New Year, everyone’s faces are filled with festive joy. Adults are holding children, wearing brand new clothes, and happily wandering in the square. Occasionally, they meet acquaintances, and the children sweetly call him "Hello uncle or aunt" and you will get a red envelope immediately.

The person I took was smiling and gave him joy. Isn’t it just for the New Year?

In the square, in addition to tourists, many vendors were also shouting loudly, including those selling balloons, snacks, and dragons and lions, which were very lively.

"Tsk tsk, this is like the New Year." Zhang Shaoyu sighed. To be honest, this person relies on clothes and Buddha relies on gold. Zhang Shaoyu was wearing a straight new suit today, and his hair was smoothly combed. At first glance, he looked like that. He was 1.75 meters tall and looked good in the square. Maybe he was very excited when he was happy. Zhang Shaoyu was very excited. He walked here and there, bought a bowl of tofu brain, and ate a string of candied haws. He was a twenties and was like a child. He bought a hydrogen balloon and held it in his hands. He was really "old" and never got old.

A burst of exclamations came from the front, which scared Zhang Shaoyu because the music suddenly burst out. Looking into the sound, there were many people in the center of the square, and they could not see the situation inside at all, and there were constantly people trying to squeeze in.

What's so strange? Are you playing with a monkey? Zhang Shaoyu also went to join in for a while, but he couldn't squeeze in. Not to mention that he didn't squeeze in, the people who came later squeezed him in the middle and couldn't move.

The ears were full of screams from women, which made people's ears hurt. What's so exciting?

"Andai!" Someone shouted out, and Zhang Shaoyu was shocked. Andy Lau? Which Andy Lau? Liu Deye, Ren Daye, or Liu Ye? In the entertainment industry, it seems that few people are called Andy Lau by the audience, except for King Liu. Could it be that it is him?

A few days ago, I met him on the set and said only one sentence. I felt very regretful at that time because King Liu came to visit the set and stayed for less than twenty minutes. As long as Ling Xinru and the director chatted for a few words, they left in a hurry.

"HELLO, Hello everyone, wow, today is the first day of the Lunar New Year. I wish you a happy New Year!"
