2004 Remote Village

"Sleeping in spring is not dawn, and birds are heard everywhere..."

The neat reading voices bring the child's tenderness and youth that has not yet fully grown, while the unstandard Mandarin has a sincere and simplicity.

Ma You stood behind the podium, and there were fourteen children sitting in front of them. In this small village where mining makes a living, there were only one group of children in the third grade in the whole third grade. Even so, there were more than other grades. Due to the living environment, the children's cheeks and nails were always gray, and it seemed that they could not wash them clean, but the dust could not cover up the joy and happiness in their eyes. As long as they could study, it would be enough to make them happy every day. Going to school is the happiest thing they are every day.

Ma You was mentally prepared to come here to teach. Although the actual situation was still beyond the hardships she imagined, she still faced the challenges of every day with a full spirit. Looking at the group of energetic faces in front of her, it seemed that she could breed infinite power to continue to persevere.

Among the many difficulties, only one thing Ma You minds very much: there is no cinema here. This is really a bit uncomfortable for Ma You, a movie fan. Of course, she can choose to watch it through resources on the computer. As for the internet speed here, there is no need to complain about it. Now if you can access the Internet, you must express gratitude; but she still hopes to watch those movies released in theaters.

A little box office is the greatest contribution of being a movie fan. She will not shout any slogans or follow her idols all over the world, and personally purchase movie tickets to express support for those works and the actors and directors. This is how she quietly likes movies.

Today, Ma You's attention is a little less focused because "Interstellar" is released.

Until now, she still has no way to forget the complex mood of watching "detachment" for the first time. She doesn't like this movie, but she can't forget the helpless and confused eyes of the children in the movie, and she can't forget Renli's sad and desperate performance.

For a long time after watching the movie, just close your eyes, the last scene in the movie will appear in her mind: in the desolate ground and in the ruins of the room, Henry's eyes burst out with a soul-shaking power in Poe's poems.

This is the biggest reason why Ma You chose to come to teach. Later, she searched for all the movies of Lan Li, one after another, and almost greedily appreciated all the works, including the "Pacific War". In addition to "detachment", her favorite was undoubtedly the "Drunk Village Folk Song". The image of the frustrated folk singer was completely the stupidity of her depiction of her dreams that was not beautiful, but the stupidity of refusing to give up in bitterness. In contemporary society, that kind of foolish persistence is becoming smaller and smaller. Fortunately, people who can still find persistence in life.

When "Interstellar" was confirmed to be released in China, Ma You began to look forward to Christopher Nolan being one of her favorite directors. It cannot be considered fanatic, but Nolan can indeed bring different things to commercial movies, which is why she always expects it.

Lan Li came to the Magic City to promote the movie. She couldn't go to express her love in person, but at least, she could contribute a movie ticket.

However, it is not easy to be in a remote mountain village.

Ma You heard from his friends that started to be in a hot and disturbing manner, but he needed a home visit yesterday, and then he came back to prepare lessons. He adjusted his working hours for today's movie watching, so she didn't have time to learn more about it.

The hustle and bustle that happened on the Internet was like a fantasy of a thousand and one night. It was just a story, just listen. Anyway, no matter what, she would support Renli and "Interstellar", which was so simple.

The crack between virtual space and the real world is divided into two completely different worlds in this remote mining village. Ma You's life is simpler, more realistic and purer. As for those traffic stars and those negative news, she has no time and energy to care about. Her little preference for the movie is her little yearning for the future and life, and that's all.

It's the fourth class in the morning now. It's time, where's her companion?

Ma You turned around and looked out the window. This was the third time in five minutes. Because she was worried that if she postponed, she might not be able to come back tonight, and the figure of her companions appeared.

Ma You did not interrupt the children's reading, and left the classroom lightly, expressed gratitude to his teaching companions, and then trotted away from the campus. Behind him, his companions laughing and teasing, "Remember to help me see if there is a poster." Ma You did not look back, but raised his right hand and gestured a "ok" gesture, like a bird that was joking, rushed out of the campus gate with his toes.

Lanley, she is here!

After rushing all the way, Ma You finally ran to the entrance of the village, took the bus he planned, and drove towards the town from the village to the town. In fact, it was only less than two kilometers, and you could reach it by foot. Usually, the residents of the village made a special trip to the town to buy daily necessities, and the same was true for the market day once every three days. But because they were all mountain roads, it was still not easy to walk on the bumpy and muddy roads, and it was relatively convenient and safe to take the bus back and forth.

After arriving in the town, Ma You took the shuttle bus again and headed from the town to the county town. It was a thirty-minute drive. The section of road near the county town had been paved with asphalt, which was very convenient to drive. However, for some reason, the road construction project was only one-third of the construction, and then it was temporarily put on hold. It has not been completed yet. This also makes the section of road near the town still have dirt mountain roads. Occasionally, you can see young men grazing cattle and farmers driving tractors.

At this time, Ma You had time to take out his mobile phone and reconnect with the world.

The thirty-six hours of controversy have slowly settled down, and the residual heat is still surging, but the whole situation has become completely clear.

Only then did Ma You realize that the meeting of fans this morning made another sensation

In the meeting, Lanli, Anne and Nolan spent a wonderful hour with the fans, discussing Lanli's prank scripts/capabilities in the crew, sharing Lanli's experience in establishing a father-son connection with the two young actors, complaining about Nolan's rigorous and rigidity in the crew, sharing Lanli and Anne's drama highlights... and so on.

The audience's climax was undoubtedly on Lan Li: he recited Wang Bo's "Preface to the Tengwang Pavilion" on the spot. The gorgeous and beautiful words and elegant and moving tone gave this classic parallel prose unique charm, which shocked everyone, opened his eyes and caused cheers and screams like tsunamis in the audience.

In the history of foreign actors coming to China to promote movies, it is definitely a peak that cannot be surpassed or copied! Even the host almost dislocated his chin on the scene.

Outside the meeting, more than 5,000 fans were wandering for a long time and were unwilling to leave. Even though they were unable to line up to enter the venue, they still failed to take steps. It seemed to be infatuated, hoping that they could hear some noise outside the scene, or to meet Ren Li after the meeting. No matter how bad they were, they also hoped to communicate with those fans who participated in the meeting.

Most importantly, they are eager to express their support and support to Renli with their actual actions.

It can be seen from the photos and videos sent back on the scene, "Young Master, China always welcomes you. Please be sure to visit the Demon City again. We always support you. This is your third hometown. Please believe that we support you and don't pay attention to those haters. We truly love you."...

The turbulence caused by this period of time has caused a global response. Lan Li cannot not know that it is not only Lan Li, but countless other filmmakers have also seen it. If they bid farewell to the Chinese market forever, it would definitely be a huge loss. Now, movie fans are doing their best to recover, and their urgent mood is unreserved.

Unfortunately, they still couldn't see Renli.

After the meeting of the fans, Lan Li and his group took a car directly from the back door, and then accepted interviews from three media outlets at the Peninsula Hotel, which also announced the official end of China's publicity itinerary.

When Ma You took a car to the county town, Lan Li and her group were also heading to Pudong Airport. She also saw the photos sent on the airport expressway on Weibo. She couldn't help but shake her head slightly. The pick-up time in the early morning of yesterday was less than 36 hours. I haven't learned my lesson yet. Is it true that Ma You can't tell whether this is a fan or a dark man? Is it really okay?

Different thoughts surged in her mind, but in the end all the thoughts were "Interstellar". As long as Lan Li was willing to continue acting, she was willing to continue to like it. Don Quixote and others always stick to Lan Li's side in their own ways, and use their own defense to stick to the beliefs in life. This is the most important thing. Now, her mind is full of "Interstellar". Thinking that she could see this work in the cinema immediately, Ma You couldn't help but feel excited.

People always complain about the difficulties and pains of life, and it seems that they can't find any fun at all. But in fact, those little happiness is hidden by themselves, just like a movie, or a small thing they like, they are enough to light up a ray of light in the darkness. The only difference is whether they calm down and look for it?

Ma You was glad that he found it.

Then, the county town arrived, but the long road was still not over. She still needed to transfer from here to the city.
Chapter completed!
