Chapter 88 The Daughter of Troubled Times
Lu Abing is a senior audience of midnight movies. He saw at a glance that "Three Seasons of Love" was unique, and a romantic atmosphere came to his face. Literary niches like this rarely appear in small cinemas, and it is even more impossible to play at midnight because they are not suitable for midnight audiences!
What shouldn't have happened was that it would appear. There would be something wrong with things. He bought a ticket with curiosity and entered the venue. It's not expensive anyway. It's a bit of a sudden change. If it doesn't suit your appetite, you'll leave. Many people have the same idea as him. For a time, the attendance rate of the theater was as high as 70%. It sounds like a lot, but in fact there are only more than 200 viewers.
In the noise, the film began. The opening of the film was featured in Howard Johnson Film Company, without the opening animation. Those who know it can see at a glance that this is a small film company, or even a bag company, and it is just a name. Most midnight movies are made by such small companies. Of course, except Shaw Brothers, which is now fully supported by romantic films, and the once glorious martial arts films have been eliminated.
As soon as the opening of the film was passed, war scenes appeared on the screen. The fire flew across the house and the destruction was very tragic. The audience was delighted. Such big scenes were rarely seen in midnight movies.
After the artillery fire, a group of refugees appeared on the country road, some men and women speaking Vietnamese with hats. On the way to escape, they suddenly encountered a group of defeated soldiers. When the refugees saw them, they were not surprised, but instead fled in all directions. The defeated soldiers immediately surrounded them, robbed money and even ravaged women.
The scene was quite chaotic and exciting, and the audience was suddenly excited. They thought it was an art film, but they didn't expect it to be a small movie they liked. The unexpected surprise came suddenly, and everyone smiled.
In troubled times, life is worse than that of dogs. Unarmed people not only have to face foreign guns and cannons, but also have to escape the burning, killing and looting of their own people. The guardian of peacetime suddenly becomes a demon, and the despair in their hearts can be imagined.
Several girls became rootless duckweed and drifted in the wind. After being ravaged by chaos, they were lucky enough to leave their lives. They packed their clothes and continued to flee. They found houses and fishing boats on the seaside at a coastal point, but they could not afford the ship's supplies for nothing, so they had to beg the old fishermen to do good deeds and send them a ride.
The old fishermen are old and make unfair requests, hoping that the girls will accompany him all night before helping. The girls are tearful and take off their shirts in tears for the sake of the remainder of the remains.
At this time, the movie was noisy in the theater. Many "enthusiastic" audiences scolded the old fisherman for being shameless and actually took advantage of the girl. When they spoke, their expressions were indignant, but their tone was full of sourness, all of which were envious and jealous, and their hearts were resentful. Why didn't they encounter such a good thing?
The old fisherman enjoyed the young girl and did not break his promise. He offered a sumptuous meal and drove a boat to take them to sea. The boat approached the port and a modern city appeared before him. The girl on the boat was very happy, thinking that she had escaped from the sea of suffering and was about to start a new life.
I thought that what awaited them was a more tragic fate. The old fishermen sold them to the local gangsters of Xigong, Xiangjiang. The girls lived a dark life from then on, and were ravaged and trained by the gangster Liu Xiang to engage in a career in picking up customers.
A few years later, a girl named Lian made a fortune. She is famous in the industry and has a high degree of freedom. She lives outside, but she still has to go to work at the Rich Bar every night.
One night, she was harassed by several young and gangsters when she got off work and was dragged into the alley. After a grin and pulling, the fashionable girl Lian was half-dressed in clothes, revealing her pink thighs. She was about to be harshly beaten by a gangster. A passing by with a tricycle immediately spoke to stop her.
The gangsters told him to get out and don't meddle in other people's business. The three-wheeled guy was young and energetic and saw that the bullied girl was as beautiful as a flower, so he became obsessed with the gangsters and wanted to make a move. He relied on learning three moves and two moves in the martial arts hall and fought with the gangsters. Finally, he was injured and successfully drove the gangsters away.
The young man saved the beauty and got a thank you for the girl, but received a lot of scolding from the audience, calling him ruining good things, and a fierce "street battle" was ruined by him.
After that chance encounter, Sanlun often stayed in the rich bar. Lian, who works in the hotel, often took care of his business in order to thank him. After a while, she became familiar with each other and knew each other's names and even her occupations.
The young man did not dislike the lotus as a broken flower and willow, but he still had a love heart. The happiest time every day was to pick up and drop off Lian to and from get off work, but he was just a pauper and was not qualified to mention the word love. He only had silent care, hoping to see the girl happy every day.
Miss Lian shuttles between guests every day, receiving all the high-ranking elites and club leaders. She looks like a beast. She looks down on the poor people who ride the tricycle, but she also knows clearly that he is a good person, at least his heart is clean. But what's the use? The girl tastes the warmth and coldness of the world, and only has a cold heart. Her biggest wish is to escape here and go to the legendary Taoyuan Meijian.
Time rotates, and the three-wheeled guy happened to meet the car boarding competition. He was lucky to get the first place and won a prize. He walked into a luxury store for the first time and bought a white dress for his beloved girl. He took it to the Fugui Hotel to pack a lotus for a night.
The girl was also surprised to see him. She accepted the gift and talked about the past. Before she knew it, she chatted all night and did nothing else. The three-wheeled guy still left with satisfaction. The girl called him and wanted to take his car out for a walk.
The young man was very happy and wanted to give her a surprise. Let the girl blindfold her eyes, and the three-wheeled young man got on the car to a maple leaf forest to untie the girl's blindfolded cloth.
Lian opened her eyes and saw the maple leaves falling and was instantly happy. There were also several maple trees at the door of her hometown. She especially liked to stay under the trees. At this moment, a sense of familiarity arose as if she had returned to her hometown, seeing her parents, younger brothers and sisters.
After a while, I came to my senses and looked at the sea with concern on the side. My cold heart melted instantly, and my eyes were filled with love! The background music sounded, and a Vietnamese song "dem lao xao" slowly came out.
"I miss you on an uneasy night, one winter night. This winter night, I am so lonely without you.
The drizzle is drizzling, but I can’t see you. Oh, the rain is crying. Where have you gone? Where are you?
Many lonely nights are not available, and I hope we can get together. I am alone, hoping to stop the rain from falling and stop its sadness. Do you know that for you who long for you, you will always be love!
…”
As the background music sounded, the subtitles appeared and the movie ended. The audience did not leave, and most of them watched the subtitles and listened to the music. Although it was a foreign song that could not understand the lyrics, the melody was beautiful and there was a faint sadness surrounding the heart.
It was not until the screen was turned off and the lights were shining, and the cinema was noisy and cursed the most! The first half of the movie was full of flesh-and-hearted scenes, and the second half actually talked about love, from a romantic film to a love art film. The audience was a little unhappy, but fortunately the plot was quite pleasing to the eye-catching song, and the ending song was the finishing touch.
Many viewers are still not satisfied, so they leave the theater to let the boss continue to play "Three Seasons of Love". The small cinema is very free to play films and will cater to the needs of the audience. If the audience calls for which movie, the boss will also meet the audience's requirements.
