Chapter 279 Highlight Moment
Jiang Yang and Li Qingning had just left the room where the movie was shown, when they saw a man rushing towards him in a menacing manner carrying an ancient artifact—a broomstick.
Jiang Yang held Li Qingning in his arms and stepped aside.
That person is the taxi driver just now.
He went directly into the room where the movie was played, and then there was a roar in the room.
"How dare you run out to play!"
The taxi driver roared, "I told you not to do your homework, and I told you to skip class!"
Followed by the crying of the little boy who changed the movie.
Li Qingning leaned in Jiang Yang's arms and asked him, "Is there anything wrong with the fight?"
It sounds quite loud.
Jiang Yang thinks it should be okay. These artifacts are moderately soft and hard, moderate in size, and easy to control the force. Moreover, once they are sacrificed, they often hit the buttocks. As long as they don't hit the head, nothing will happen.
Li Qingning: "You return the family."
"That is."
Jiang Yang took pleasure in other's misfortune, he also endured it when he was a child.
Li Qingning poked his chest speechlessly, not knowing what to be proud of.
They descended the steps.
The taxi driver quickly took the little boy out, and Uncle Li came over to persuade him to discipline the child well and not to beat or scold him. After the driver left, Uncle Li turned back, "His father paid for him to attend cram school, and he skipped class to go to a movie."
The uncle looked at them: "Are you leaving?"
"Um."
Jiang Yang said he would come over and take a look. He was actually more interested in those films of Uncle Li.
he asked, "I heard that film is flammable?"
This is a clip of "Paradise Cinema" that Jiang Yang remembers. In the movie, Duoduo often steals the cut film and goes home, so that he burns the house down. Later, the projectionist became blind because the film caught fire during playback.
"Huh?"
Jiang Yang didn't expect to remember so much, maybe because this is a cinema for the blind.
Speaking of it, it is quite related.
"You know quite a lot!"
Uncle Li was surprised.
Uncle said that it was a film made a long time ago. The material of this film is made of nitrocellulose, which is similar to gunpowder cotton. During the projection process, it is easy to catch fire due to friction. When he first started working, he encountered it once. Fortunately, it was played in the open air and there was no fire. However, this film has long been replaced by security film.
Jiang Yang asked: "Then why is it reflected on the other wall while the movie is playing, and it doesn't affect the projection of the movie?"
Uncle Li finds Jiang Yang more and more interesting.
It seems that this kid really likes old movies, no wonder he is so fond of kisses.
Uncle Li is also a movie lover, and he also likes old movies on film.
After all, he was playing with this when he was young, so Uncle Li felt like meeting a confidant.
He invited Jiang Yang to visit his studio, which has a machine.
Jiang Yang was a little moved.
Li Qingning let him go.
She found a chair for blind people to rest and sat down, put on headphones and listened to music.
Jiang Yang entered the uncle's studio.
This room is not so much a studio as it is a place where Uncle Li lives. The beds, sofas, etc. are neatly arranged. Then there was a table in the middle of the room with film boxes, some tools scattered around, and a film projector.
Uncle Li turned on the power.
He said that when he first started working, many villages did not have electricity. When he went to show a movie in the village, he had to prepare two mules, one for the generator and the movie machine, one for the oil and the film, and then the head of the village took care of the food. Township is nearly a month.
Jiang Yang said: "My dad said that when they were young, they liked watching movies at the threshing floor the most."
Both dads have said it.
also said that they used to show movies at night after people died.
"yes."
Uncle Li said that he was very popular at that time. Many children were playing at the entrance of the village. They were very happy to see him. Some people went to inform the village adults, some helped him lead the mule, and some ran back to bring him water. .
Of course, what he likes most is when a movie is shown in the threshing floor, many people are sitting there, waiting for you to start, like, "It's like a big star is giving a concert, and they are all waiting for you to start their voices."
Uncle Li is very excited when he talks about these things.
They talked a lot more before Uncle Li operated the instrument and answered the technical questions Jiang Yang wanted to know one by one. He also demonstrated to Jiang Yang how to cut the film, etc., "In the past, people watched movies like Chinese New Year, but now it doesn't work."
Now that there are TVs and the Internet, there are more entertainments, and it is no longer the era of only entertainment at night.
Jiang Yang turned his head and glanced at the room, and asked smoothly: "Where's Aunt?"
Uncle Li pointed to the wall: "There."
Jiang Yang saw the photo of the aunt, "I'm sorry, I don't know."
"It's okay."
The uncle said that people are always going to die, and he was glad that she left before him, otherwise she could not see her eyes, who would take care of her.
Jiang Yang said, "There is no child—"
He stopped.
The uncle thinks it's okay, they both like watching movies.
When he was a projectionist, he showed movies in their village, and then saw her in four or five villages in a row. The uncle remembers very clearly that the movie "Azalea" was shown at that time, and azaleas bloomed everywhere in the mountains. At that time, he thought, this girl really likes watching movies. Slowly, they got to know each other, and she started to order movies.
"When I was picking up film reels at the station, I tried to choose movies that she would like."
Uncle said he was quite happy.
As for later.
They got married.
"Azalea?"
This is a movie unique to this world.
Uncle Li operated the instrument and put a note to determine the cropped picture. These were all for Jiang Yang to see, "At that time, we were as tired as you and your wife."
Jiang Yang: "Where are we getting bored?"
"From coming in to now, except when helping me move things, you two have been holding hands."
"Yeah?"
Jiang Yang didn't pay attention.
Uncle Li and his wife have no children, but because they like movies, they watch movies when other people’s families are having fun. “Life is much harder than movies, so watching a movie will relieve all worries.”
Jiang Yang heard these words familiar.
As the uncle said, he really reflected the picture projected forward by the movie onto the wall next to him.
The two laughed together.
Together they look at the screen projected onto the wall.
Uncle Li asked Jiang Yang what is the use of studying this.
"I'm writing a script, and I want to figure this out." Jiang Yang said that he wrote an advertisement some time ago, and the plot in it borrowed the plot from it, so he wanted to write the movie in its entirety.
He asked Uncle Li, if a group of people waited for more than three hours in the movie theater, but they didn’t watch the movie until the end, what if the projectionist used this method to project the movie on the wall of the square outside the movie theater—
"That must be very cool."
Uncle Li blurted out that it was the projectionist's highlight moment, "When I was a projectionist, the happiest thing was the moment of the screening. Those villagers surrounded you, entertained you with delicious food and drink, just for that moment, And at that moment, you satisfy them, and when you hear the voices of people talking and laughing in the field, you will be happy together. It’s like—”
He thought about it, "It seems that I created happiness and made them forget their troubles. I like this feeling very much."
Jiang Yang likes it too.
