Behind the scenes of the entertainment industry

Zhou Ya drove the car from Dongsi Street to North Second Ring Road, turned to Zhou Cheng and asked, "Where are you going? Liuli Bridge?"

"Go to Yuyuantan and go home for dinner?"

Hearing Zhou Cheng's words, Zhou Ya was stunned, and even the front of the car almost veered off the lane. Fortunately, Zhou Ya came back to her senses and grasped the direction in time.

"Zhou Ya, I'm just going home for dinner, why are you scaring me like this?" The shaking of the car made Zhou Cheng, who was also distracted, break into a cold sweat.

"You scared me, okay." Zhou Ya said angrily: "When was the last time you had dinner at home? Do you still remember?"

Seeing that Zhou Cheng didn't answer, Zhou Ya continued: "On March 8th, our mother took a half-day holiday and specially cooked a table of dishes for you to come back for dinner. But you were better off and left after eating half of it. Later, you stayed there for three and a half months.

Not going home."

"Aren't I busy?" Zhou Chengnuo replied nonchalantly, turning to look out the car window. It has entered the midsummer season, and it has also ushered in the longest daytime period of the year, even though it has already reached six o'clock.

However, the sun was still unwilling to end like this. It hung high in the western sky, emitting its last light and heat, making Zhou Cheng, who was half lying on his seat, unable to open his eyes.

"You are just a waste, a waste that has accomplished nothing." This was what his father said to him at the dinner table in March. It was these words that made Zhou Cheng in this world not go home for three months.

In Zhou Cheng's impression, his father, whether in this world or another, stood behind him like a mountain, not only protecting him from wind and rain, but also bringing him great psychological pressure.

My father, Zhou Kezhi, has always known what he needs from someone, and he will fight for it without giving up until he achieves his goal.

In 1973, Zhou Kezhi, who was the worst at studying, took the initiative to replace his brother Zhou Keyang. His sister Zhou Min went to the countryside to Anji, so that they could concentrate on their studies and be admitted to university to engage in research work they liked. That year he was not

to the age of seventeen.

In 1976, when he was of marriageable age, after careful consideration, he married Lin Li, the daughter of a local teacher. Then the next year, educated youths began to return to the city one after another, and Zhou Kezhi also considered returning to Yanjing.

In 1978, because he married a local resident, Zhou Kezhi's two applications to return to the city were rejected. Zhou Kezhi began to take another path. He asked his brother to send a large amount of review materials from Yanjing, and threatened to divorce and return to the city.

, pulling Lin Li to study together.

In the end, the two passed the college entrance examination in 1979 and were admitted to Fudan University and East China Normal University respectively. Zhou Ya, who had just turned one year old, was left by the two in Anji to live with his grandfather and grandmother. Until 1985, Zhou Cheng was almost two years old.

After Zhou Kezhi settled down at Yanjing, he took Zhou Ya back to him.

After entering the official career, as the son of an ordinary railway worker, Zhou Kezhi had no background other than his own academic qualifications. He worked hard all the way from an ordinary clerk to a section member and section chief. He was transferred to the district and then was

Transferred to Yanjing TV Station, where he served as deputy director and director, and was promoted to executive deputy director of the Propaganda Department of the Municipal Party Committee.

Although as a director of propaganda work, Zhou Kezhi often talks about "equality between men and women". However, in Zhou Cheng's family, his grandfather's idea of ​​"preferring boys over girls" has been perfectly inherited by Zhou Kezhi.

.

Zhou Ya, who was only adopted when she was seven years old, has been very rebellious since she was a child. Zhou Kezhi also had an almost free-spirited attitude towards her, which in turn aroused Zhou Ya's inner fighting spirit. Not only did she have excellent grades, but she also became more courageous as she fought, and in the end she became even more courageous.

He was admitted to the Law Department of Peking University with excellent results.

On the contrary, from elementary school to junior high school and then to high school, Zhou Cheng, who had been watched closely by his father Zhou Kezhi, could not bear the pressure. Not only did he have no results in piano, art, and calligraphy, but his academic performance became worse and worse. Especially with outstanding students

Compared with Zhou Ya, Zhou Cheng's performance made Zhou Kezhi have lower and lower expectations for him. He hoped that his son would become a dragon, but in the end, this dragon was not even as good as a worm.

When he saw that Zhou Cheng could only apply for one art college with grades just above the first-tier level, Zhou Kezhi's disappointed eyes became a common nightmare for Zhou Cheng in both worlds.

Zhou Cheng in another world did not meet Chu Ran and others in college. After four years of gloom, he followed Zhou Kezhi's arrangement and entered the Yanjing TV station for an internship amidst the envy of his classmates.

"When you agreed to work at the TV station, do you know how disappointed I was? I really wanted to hear you say to me, I want to go out and fight, I want to start my own business, and work hard. But you didn't, you chose a relative path

The comfortable and stable road makes you lose the spirit of struggle and the vitality that a young man should have." This is another world, a passage that his father said to Zhou Cheng sincerely after he lost power. Maybe at that time

, he also regretted not letting go earlier and letting Zhou Cheng waste his life.

"I have my own choice. I don't want you to control my life..." Zhou Cheng, who is in this world, is very fortunate to have taken this step bravely with the encouragement of Chu Ran and others.

"Go your own way, haha, tell me, what can you do? What capital do you have?" This was Zhou Kezhi's soul torture to Zhou Cheng at that time. Maybe what he was waiting for at that time was not Zhou Cheng giving him a perfect

What he was waiting for was whether Zhou Cheng would be brave enough to take this step.

Fortunately, Zhou Cheng in this world has persevered due to various combinations of circumstances. Although he has not achieved real success so far, Zhou Cheng believes that this is the path his father wants him to take.

It’s not scary to experience failure, because everyone’s life cannot be smooth sailing. As a parent, the most important thing is to hope that your children can face setbacks bravely and not give up. This is a world that has experienced more than ten years of experience.

Only adults understand the truth.

"By the way, I met Brother Cen this morning." A bump in the road caused by a small pothole woke Zhou Cheng up from his deep thoughts.

"Cen Donglai?" Upon hearing this name, Zhou Ya frowned slightly: "Is that artist in your hands causing trouble again?"

"Well, I had a fight with someone at the bar in Houhai last night, so I had to ask Brother Cen for help." Zhou Cheng still chose to tell the truth.

"Are you using me as a cover again?" Zhou Ya rolled her eyes at him, looked at Zhou Cheng and nodded, and couldn't help but continue: "In the future, please don't just try to bring the two of us together, it's impossible for me and him

.”

"Sister, you are twenty-nine this year... don't look at me like this. I am just stating a fact." Zhou Cheng, who was sitting in the passenger seat, could clearly feel a gust of cold wind: "After all these years, your Ph.D.

Now that you’ve got it, it’s time to think about your own personal matters.”

"You don't have to worry about this. Your sister has a lot of people chasing her..."

"How many of those people who are chasing you are really because of you? In fact, I feel that Brother Cen is quite good. You are also childhood sweethearts, and he is also infatuated with you. I remember when I was a child, when people gave you trouble, Brother Cen always came to help.

Of..." Zhou Cheng continued to persuade.

Zhou Ya in the other world is a person who is not kind to people. After her father lost power, the other party immediately broke off the relationship with her. In the end, Cen Donglai, who has always been infatuated with Zhou Ya, stayed with her. At that time, Zhou Ya

Ya finally accepted this infatuated man, and the two got together. So Zhou Cheng didn't want his sister in this world to encounter such emotional twists and turns again, so he directly helped her find the most suitable one.

"You little brat, don't worry about me. I make my own decision." Zhou Ya interrupted Zhou Cheng: "I will give you two boxes of tea tonight, and you can give it to him directly to return the favor. This is my point

Tea leaves are about to be ruined by you."

"Sister, you can't say that. This is the tea given by my grandpa and uncle, and I should have a share of it based on the head count." Knowing that Zhou Ya didn't want to talk about personal matters anymore, Zhou Cheng had no choice but to change the subject with her.

"Tch!" Zhou Ya snorted disdainfully and continued: "Believe it or not, you won't get anything at all next year."

"Okay, you're being cruel. Can't I ask our mother to ask for it from now on?"

Zhou Cheng also understood that this was his grandma, and his grandfather was expressing his dissatisfaction with Zhou Kezhi, so he was particularly fond of his granddaughter who stayed with him until he was seven years old.

Every year during the summer vacation, Zhou Cheng and Zhou Ya go to Anji together. It is obvious that their grandma's family treats Zhou Ya more kindly than their grandson, and he does not get the same treatment as in Yanjing.

The same goes for the tea leaves sent by my grandma’s family every year. Except for one copy from my mother Lin Li, the other one is sent to Zhou Ya alone. This happens every year. According to grandma’s words, the few acres of forest and tea gardens that my grandpa’s family is assigned are all

It is a dowry prepared for this granddaughter, and Zhou Cheng does not have a share.
