Chapter 203: Red
Guan Chen and Xiao Xiong came to the capital together.
As if with a little urgency to "have one more person remember my sister", Little Bear said a lot about her sister along the way.
Xiao Xiong and her sister were born in Guangdong Province. They have a father who teaches music at home, so the two sisters have been immersed in music since childhood. They just learned to speak, and then they had to learn music theory. When the elder sister Xiong Ruojin showed her talent in music and
After being admitted to Beijing Art School, his family moved to Beijing.
At that time, the tuition for art school was 30,000 yuan a year. In addition to the tuition for extracurricular training and buying good musical instruments, it was a huge expense. Their family was ordinary and could only afford one person to take this path. Xiao Xiong's talent was average.
, and often couldn't sit still, and always wanted to run out to play when learning piano, so it was natural for her to go to an ordinary school, so that the whole family could save money and devote their energy to her sister. The little bear didn't feel partial, she saw the light on the stage
Wan Zhang's sister is only proud in her heart. She hopes that her sister can continue to be so brilliant. Xiao Xiong usually saves all his pocket money and spends nothing if he can. He plans to buy a dress for his sister to wear during the competition.
And Xiong Ruojin can live up to the expectations of his family. He practices the piano vigorously every day. There is a piano room for each person in the school. The teacher paces back and forth in the corridor. If he hears anyone who is lazy, he will knock on the door and go in to ask questions. Xiong Ruojin's
There was never a moment of laziness in the piano room. The art school was a six-year direct transition from junior high school to high school. During these six years, she practiced piano, competed, won awards, continued practicing, and was admitted to the Beijing Conservatory of Music with the best results.
Beijing Conservatory of Music is one of the best music schools in the world. Those who can get admitted are all the proud ones. They grew up with the admiration and jealousy of others, and they are reluctant to win awards. They firmly believe that they can make a living through music in the future.
However, what greeted them after enrolling in school was the harshest criticism and the most vicious ridicule from professors and teachers. It was normal for students to cry every day and doubt themselves. Many gave up music midway through their studies, or chose to go abroad.
Xiong Ruojin has a gentle temperament, but she has never cried once, and she has never stopped to doubt herself. Because for her, doubting herself is equivalent to doubting the efforts of her relatives for several years. She does not allow it. She endures all pressure
, become chief.
Logically speaking, Xiong Ruojin would either go to graduate school or be admitted to the best orchestra in the country, the China Philharmonic Orchestra, after graduation. However, in order to support her further studies, Xiao Xiong had not bought new clothes for the New Year for several years.
When the heater broke, my father was reluctant to buy a new one.
She calculated for herself that it would take three years to continue her postgraduate studies. It would take another two or three years to successfully enter the Philharmonic Orchestra, compete with more than a dozen people, and then successfully win the position of principal. So when she could
When you make money, it will be three years later.
She also thought that she might as well join the entertainment industry so that she could make money early. Ever since she entered college, agents have contacted her one after another every year. Some of them wanted to package her as a guzheng goddess and push her to participate in the competition.
During the tour, some wanted her to participate in idol auditions, and some even planned to let her go into filming. But she was neither used to that kind of life nor did she like it.
While she was worrying, an agent named Zhang came from Shanghai and told her that Tan Nian was forming his own orchestra, and his works were going to be presented at the Spring Festival Gala next year. This orchestra is half academic and half entertainment, and its main job is to restore ancient Chinese music.
, on the other hand, Tan Nian is a well-known figure, well-known in the music industry at home and abroad. As a musician, he needs to follow Tan Nian to participate in various tours and commercial performances, and occasionally appear on TV. This kind of orchestra that appeals to both refined and popular tastes is just right for Xiong.
Ruojin.
Xiong Ruojin successfully joined Tan Nian's orchestra, became the lead guzheng player, and fell in love with the manager named Zhang.
Father Xiong was furious and hated the gangster surnamed Zhang who had seduced his daughter into destroying her future. He firmly disagreed with his daughter being with him. However, the following year, Xiong Ruojin became pregnant out of wedlock, so Father Xiong attended his daughter's wedding with a sullen face.
Xiong Ruojin felt a little guilty about her father, but she still chose the path she wanted. She usually studied ancient music and occasionally participated in commercial performances with Tan Nian. After becoming famous, some musicians and music variety shows also came to her. After working together and earning money, she first bought a house for her father and replaced it with new appliances; then she bought a lot of clothes and accessories for Little Bear. When she heard that Little Bear was going to learn acting, she let Little Bear feel free to pursue his ideals. , if you want to learn acting, go and learn it, she will take care of everything. At first, my younger sister had wronged herself for her elder sister’s ideal, but now it is my elder sister’s turn to support her younger sister’s ideal.
The lives of Little Bear and his father are getting better, and his daughter is slowly growing up. She is also happily married to her lover. Her life is dull but she can occasionally see rainbows. Xiong Ruojin is very satisfied with this kind of life.
Until one day when she was practicing piano, Xiong Ruojin felt that her back was sore, her vision often went dark, and she couldn't stand. At first, she thought it was because she had been practicing too hard recently and suffered from hypoglycemia. Later, she started to have inexplicable nosebleeds, and I was first-class for an hour or two, but I couldn't stop, and then I felt something was wrong.
"Acute leukemia..."
Guan Chen looked at the leukemia forum on his mobile phone. There were confessions from patients’ families and messages from netizens, almost all of which were wishes, comfort and encouragement;
There are also tracking record posts by patients themselves in the Tieba. Some record posts have been updated for several years, and netizens celebrate enthusiastically; while for some record posts, the poster never appears again after a few months, and netizens leave messages. It turned into a call and sadness.
Guan Chen didn't understand, it was too complicated for him.
In their line of work, helping others end their suffering is a kind of kindness. But here in the hospital, it seems to be a taboo.
Those who suffer from illness may not be brave or special, and may not have done many good things in their lives, but as long as they are alive, everyone seems to regard them as heroes. And heroes should not be weak, nor should they be weak. He shouldn't lose control. Guan Chen saw a post from a patient saying that he couldn't hold on any longer and didn't want to live and be tortured. Then the netizens on the post insisted that he fight to the end and told him not to think that way.
Putting away his mobile phone, Guan Chen picked up the fruit and walked towards the hospital in front of him.
As I walked towards him, I saw almost no one smiling.
The people Guan Chen saw had either numb or sad faces.
Guan Chen thought of a line from Xie Jinzhu, the villain of "Black Dragon 2", that ordinary people work hard for half their lives, and sometimes an accident and illness can quickly collapse the life they have built for several years.
Problems that can be solved with money are not problems. However, those problems that are not problems always bother ordinary people. Without money, there are no choices.
On the lawn in the distance, someone was beating the ground and shouting like crazy. People coming and going were accustomed to this. After taking one look, they continued to lower their heads and go about their own business.
Gu Ji
Guan Chen withdrew his gaze and walked into the door.
After several serious medical incidents occurred, many hospitals have tightened security and set up security checks at the entrances to prohibit people from bringing in controlled knives from the outside.
Guan Chen has filmed "Key to Destiny" and already knows the process, so he is clean. Unfortunately, he is wearing a hat and a mask. Wearing a hat or a pocket alone is no problem, but when combined together, he looks a little awkward in the hospital.
Suspicious. Several security personnel slowly came over. After seeing Guan Chen carrying a mobile phone, wallet, lighter, tape, anti-wolf spray, swing stick, ballpoint pen, small notebook, and a strange ID, several security guards looked at him.
With a glance, Guan Chen made eye contact, and Guan Chen nodded. The security guards immediately stood in awe and let the comrade in.
After Guan Chen went in, he called Xiao Xiong and asked which ward his sister was in.
Following Little Bear's answer, Guan Chen went to the inpatient building.
In the corridor, Guan Chen saw his sister's husband, Lao Zhang.
Lao Zhang stood with a young girl and seemed to be teaching her a lesson.
Lao Zhang obviously wasn't angry at all and just spoke calmly. But every time he said something, the girl opposite lowered her head lower and rubbed the hem of her clothes uneasily with her fingers behind her back.
Guan Chen walked over and asked curiously: "Why, are you bullying people?"
Lao Zhang looked haggard, and his elite look was no longer so aggressive. As a family member of a patient, he must have been having a hard time these days.
But this is not a reason to bully others. Guan Chen hasn’t done one good deed a day yet.
Lao Zhang did not speak. When the girl who was being scolded saw that Guan Chen was familiar with Lao Zhang, she immediately defended herself and said, "No, no, I am a colleague of Brother Hui. I made a mistake at work, and Brother Hui is coaching me."
There was no trace of the grievance of being scolded on the girl's face. She was dressed neatly in workplace attire, and from the front, not a single wrinkle could be seen.
"Colleague?" Guan Chen asked with a smile: "Your company is in Shanghai, so you don't need to come to the capital for training, right? And you should report work matters to your boss, not your colleagues, right?"
"Our company is headquartered in Shanghai, but we also have some subsidiaries in Beijing with related businesses. I happen to be in charge of these businesses here in Beijing. Brother Hui has been unable to leave in recent days, so I have to handle many things. I
I have just entered the industry and have no experience in many things. I need to learn from Brother Hui. Things are not going well, so I came to ask for advice in person." The girl answered calmly and handed Guan Chen a business card.
She works in the same company as Lao Zhang and is also an agent. Her name is Qin Ruiyang.
"Hello, Xiao Qin." Guan Chen nodded to the girl, "Are you interested in working in a film and television company? Our company is very hungry for talents."
Xiao Qin was stunned. He had never seen anyone start poaching people after just a few words of conversation. Maybe, but that was the treatment of a big boss, and he was just a little guy.
Lao Zhang glanced sideways at Guan Chen: "You are so shameless."
"You really don't understand the ways of the world and the workplace." Guan Chen shook his head.
Lao Zhang's face was expressionless. Guan Chen's words only deserved his response with this expression.
Guan Chen waved to Xiao Qin, making a "keep in touch" gesture, and prepared to see his sister.
Open the door.
Guan Chen saw Xiong Ruojin lying on the bed and talking to the little bear next to him.
Compared with the last time I saw her, my sister has changed a lot.
The most striking change is that she now has red hair.
