Middle age: leisurely life in the entertainment industry

Autumn in Hokkaido is almost a world of maple leaves.

Starting from the Daisetsuzan Mountains and the surrounding Kamikawa Town, to Onuma Park, KIJIHIKI Plateau in Hokuto City, and to Hokkaido City, the two of them stopped and walked, never wanting to leave.

Of course, in addition to maple leaves, there are hot springs everywhere, plump long-legged crabs, king crabs, and salmon... Taking advantage of the cool autumn weather, it feels really good to soak in the hot springs to relax your muscles and bones while feasting on seafood.

Today they came to Lake Akan in the eastern part of the country.

Lake Akan is located in the eastern part of Hokkaido, Japan. It is a crater lake with beautiful scenery. It is a mysterious lake where Chlorococcus grows, a special natural monument. Meimei must come here mainly because she wants to soak in the hot springs.

There is a hot spring street here with a long history. It is definitely a great enjoyment to soak in the steaming hot springs under the stars at night.

In fact, what interests Yu Dongqing is that this was once the filming location for "If You Are the One" starring Ge You.

In the movie, Xiaoxiao said to Qin Fen, "Can you accompany me to Hokkaido?" Their romantic trip to Hokkaido began.

It’s hard to say how well the movie turned out, but the scenery inside is beautiful.

Yu Dongqing also took Mingliang to come to Beibin Station - the place where Qin Fen and Xiaoxiao's journey to Hokkaido began in "If You Are the One".

It is said that this is the reputation for being the closest station to the Sea of ​​Okhotsk and the closest train station to the sea in the world. You can also enjoy the lingering and graceful mountain scenery of Shiretoko.

The platform is small, and the timber-built Kitahama Station is quaint, welcoming and unattended. There is an observation deck here, and you can see the Shiretoko Mountains of the Shiretoko Peninsula in the distance.

Yu Dongqing stood here, looking into the distance leisurely.

"Husband, what are you doing here?" Meili didn't understand.

"Didn't you realize that this place is beautiful? Is it suitable for filming a movie?" Yu Dongqing said, and there were notes from travelers scattered all over the wooden wall, and he picked one at random: it read:

"I hope that thirty years from now, we will still be holding hands."

Meiliang didn't pay attention to the note in Yu Dongqing's hand, but looked at the surrounding scenery: "Yes, it must be very romantic to film a movie here! Brother-in-law, do you want to film?"

Yu Dongqing shook his head: "Just talking casually."

"If you don't want to shoot, then I'll do it! I don't want to be an actor, I want to do my job as a director and make movies! It's been a long time since I made a movie!" Meiliang said coquettishly.

"Okay, okay, you take the photo."

"Then you have to write a script for me!"

"well."

What else could Yu Dongqing say about his little wife?

"Here, let me take a picture for you first!" Yu Dongqing said, holding up the Canon camera that had been with him for many years, and with a click, a bright and smiling face wearing a khaki windbreaker and A-line skirt was frozen in the photo.

The two returned to the Heya Hotel where they lived and rested in their rooms.

Yu Dongqing didn't understand Japanese and was lying on the bed scrolling through her phone, but Mingliang understood and turned on the TV with interest to watch the local news.

"Oh, this girl is so miserable," Meiliang suddenly shouted.

"What's wrong?" Yu Dongqing sat up and saw the announcer on the screen playing a piece of news seriously, but he couldn't understand it.

"It was said on TV that in Kushiro City, where Lake Akan is located, a girl committed suicide. It was said that her parents divorced and she followed her father. Later, her stepmother gave birth to a boy. Her father's attitude towards her was completely different from that of his brother. In the end, the girl couldn't accept it and committed suicide by jumping off the building."

oh.

"This kind of thing is very common, let alone in RI, it is nothing new in our country." Yu Dongqing said: "There are many problems in reorganizing families. Children, especially adolescent girls, are inherently sensitive and suspicious. It is difficult to deal with it. The bad thing is that it’s easy to get into trouble.”

Speaking of this, Yu Dongqing suddenly found that Mei Mei was in a daze, and suddenly thought of something: "Mei Mei, you don't think of Tong Tong, do you?"

"That's not the case. You and I are both very good to Tongtong. Even if we have children of our own in the future, we will still be good to Tongtong." Meiliang explained.

"But, does Tongtong think so? She's a little unhappy that we come here to play." Meiliang said.

Why.

It’s not easy for a father like me to guess what a girl is thinking.

Yu Dongqing could only say: "No matter what, we love her!"

"Yeah, yeah, I will love her even more than before!"

But, is the love I give my child what she needs?

Yu Dongqing couldn't figure it out either.

Regarding this question, Yu Dongqing suddenly remembered a youth film shot in that time and space.

"Dog Thirteen"

Directed by Cao Baoping and starring Zhang Xueying, Guo Jinglin, etc., the film tells the story of a girl's cruel transformation from childhood to adulthood. The filming of this film was delayed for five years before it was released.

The content of the film involves the reorganization of the family, the relationship between the sexes, the rebelliousness of adolescence until it is finally suppressed and pulled, and the traditional educational ideology that favors sons over daughters.

The film was well shot and scored relatively high on Douban. It won the International Jury Special Recommendation Award in the Crystal Bear section of the Berlin Film Festival, the Best Film Award at the Yenching University Student Film Festival, etc. However, the box office performance was not great.

Maybe it’s because there’s no beautiful love in college, no censure in adult life, no quarrels, no abortion, no car accidents, no “tears” that are often seen in youth movies?

"Brother-in-law, what are you thinking about?" Meiliang asked curiously when she saw Yu Dongqing in a daze.

"Oh nothing."

Yu Dongqing reacted and looked at Meimei. Suddenly her heart moved: "Meimei, didn't you say you wanted to make a movie? I thought of a plot in a script, will you film it?"

"In which aspect?"

"It's a bit similar to the news you just mentioned."

"Okay. You say it." Mingliang snuggled next to Yu Dongqing.

Yu Dongqing talked about it sincerely.

The storyline of "Dog Thirteen":

Li Wan is twelve years old and has just entered junior high school. He lives with his elderly grandparents. Her mother left home when she was young, and her father remarried and had a younger brother with her stepmother. She was in adolescence and longed for understanding, companionship and love.

The father was anxious about how to inform Li Wan of the arrival of the newborn, but unexpectedly got into a dispute over schoolwork, so the father decided to buy a puppy to comfort his daughter. Li Wan, who loves physics, named the puppy "Einstein".

But the puppy was lost in an accident. Li Wan was deeply saddened by the loss of Einstein, and his family could not live in peace.

In order to appease Li Wan, the family replaced Einstein with another puppy of the same breed. Under pressure from the whole family, Li Wan became increasingly silent.

The addition of her stepmother and new brother made Li Wan feel like an outsider. When her family called the new puppy "Einstein," she began to find that she could not escape the lies weaved for her by the adult world. However, she faced the authoritarian majesty of her father. , in the end there was only compromise, and finally she "grew up".

At Li Wan's college entrance banquet, her father's friend, without knowing it, specially ordered a dish for her, dog.

The adults at the table all had ugly faces and remained silent. Li Wan just hesitated for a moment, then said "Thank you, uncle" and raised his chopsticks.

In the Chinese-style education of "obedience", Li Wan also completed her "coming of age ceremony".

Meili listened to the story told by Yu Dongqing and remained silent.

After a while, he said, "Husband, just write it down and I'll take the photo."
