The origin of the star lotus world

Chapter 1917 Text

Text Chapter 1853

The author is remembering some past experiences in this life and will mention some things about his family in this life. Some things have been going on for many years and may not need to be talked about, but some will still be said. Because some memories still seem warm and kind, they are worthy of being recorded and preserved by the author.

My grandparents treat me very well. In this mortal world, they are rare people who treat me well from beginning to end. The author is very blessed to have them as close relatives.

Continuing to talk about some things in the past, my grandma used to work in a state-owned shopping mall, selling department store products. It was a pretty good job back then, and she worked the same job for decades. My retirement was relatively late, and I was retained by the mall manager as the sales area team leader. However, due to physical reasons and having to take care of my children, I retired.

The shopping mall is not far from the insulation material factory. It only takes 20 to 30 minutes to walk there. If you take the bridge or the side road, you can take a shortcut and the distance will be shorter. The shopping mall business district is not far from the electrical machinery factory of the local leading company, and the location is relatively close. That shopping mall was quite famous back then, and even some people in other districts knew about that shopping mall. There is a large Chinese medicine hospital on the street opposite the shopping mall, which has a large area. Today, many people go there to get Chinese medicine. The original location has been expanded and looks more grand. It is a famous place in that urban area.

The company where my grandfather worked, the insulation material factory, once had a great time. When it was rich, the motor factory even borrowed money from it for capital turnover. However, that factory later declined, and other factories developed, and the medium and large one The factory's performance declined year by year, and eventually it became a mere existence in name only, leaving only an empty factory, a large number of factory buildings, and the memories of thousands of employees. Some people have contributed so much to that factory, and some employees have worked there for half their lives. However, the original unit is gone, and now there are only some old sites left. Perhaps, even the old sites will be renovated in the future. Some things are just historical information.

There is a children's palace near a school in the Electrical Machinery Factory. I have been there many times. It is a building that deserves attention in that area. It is a venue for performances and parties, and is also used to show movies. There are thousands of seats in the performance hall, which is equivalent to the number of seats in some opera house concert halls today. The main urban development area had better buildings at that time, so that building was mainly visited by surrounding residents. If you are willing to go into the city, there are many bustling venues, but they are not of high quality.

Sometimes, when I watch a movie there, the venue is full of spectators and it seems very lively. Compared with the hundreds of seats in some movie halls today, even if some of today's small and medium-sized movie halls are full, they are far less large than that venue. Although the venue environment and seat quality are not as good as those of today's theaters, they were not as good as those in those days. Quite a nice place.

When the author was in the first or second grade of elementary school, the school organized students to go there many times to watch movies, especially during Children’s Day and other festivals. It was an entertainment experience that many people looked forward to. Children’s mentality is very simple. Watching performances or movies as a group activity is very interesting. The school will distribute holiday food to each student, including snacks and small bottles of drinks, as well as fruits and snacks. Most children are satisfied. The school also organized spring outings and went to the amusement park.

The amusement park we went to was vast in area. It is said that it is still one of the largest amusement parks in the province and city. There were many tourists there. The amusement park received millions of visitors every year. Maybe many years ago, part of that amusement park was renovated and new rides were added, but the author remembers that it was still in the past and has never been there again.

When the author was a child, he went to that amusement park many times, organized by the school and accompanied by relatives. He had no experience of going alone. At that time, he felt that some of the entertainment facilities were quite fun. I still remember the amusement park’s thrilling rides, crazy cat cars, flying magic carpets, pirate ships, small planes in the sky and other entertainment facilities. In retrospect, I still feel good about some exciting entertainment projects. The classic amusement park items, the carousel and simple rides, are also very popular.

The school for the children of workers was just an ordinary school with average test scores, not as high as those in boarding schools. But the school for the children of workers was particularly humane. Many of the classmates in the class had parents who worked in the same factory, so they were united and harmonious, which made them more pure. Two years of observation and contact left the author with a lot of very innocent memories. The author still praises and praises me to this day. I went to many schools in my life, and the harmonious environment of that school was the best. It is a pity that I went to a place I shouldn't have gone to, and suffered a lot of bullying and injustice. Some things are destined to be experienced, but it would be great if you could not experience them. It's just that without personal experience of some things, it's difficult to truly feel some despicableness and sadness. Some things have the meaning and certainty of experience.

In the Children's Palace, if it is a movie viewing activity arranged by the school, before the movie is played, a teacher will organize the students to sing and compare which class of students sings better and louder. At that time, the movies shown were not the latest ones. They might have been released for a while. They were not updated as fast as they are now. Some big-budget or very popular movies might have been shown for a long time in those days. If you feel comfortable watching the movie If the experience is good, some people will go to the cinema to watch movies they have already seen over and over again. There are many people watching the movie, and the reaction of the audience in the audience is also a kind of movie-watching atmosphere.

At that time, the technology for projecting movies was far inferior to modern ones. It did not have the ultra-high definition and brightness of today's movies, but at that time, it was pretty good to be able to watch movies in a cinema. Some people used to rent video tapes, and later they rented CDs. Each movie had one or two DVDs, and a TV series had dozens of DVDs. Some DVD rental houses still have them, and they may have four-second resolution. Some people will still use home theaters and DVD players to watch movies and TV shows. There are thousands of movies and TV shows on online platforms, but there are still people who will follow their habits.

That venue disappeared many years ago and was converted into other facilities. The decades-old building attracted much attention in the past. Tens of thousands of people went there to watch performances and movies. It was a place that many people knew, but it has long since disappeared. But the author still remembers some things and has similar experiences to many people back then.

With the renovation and upgrading of the city, the school for workers' children has long since moved away from its address. Fortunately, the school still exists, but I don't know if there are still so many students who live in harmony and there will be a united and gentle school atmosphere. , there is rarely bullying in schools. The school is well managed, really good.

The author summarized the information currently known and talked about some changes and changes. The exterior of the floors of the old house was renovated many years ago and painted with maroon red paint. Some old neighbors are still there, and some are no longer alive. Perhaps their children or relatives still live in that area. Depending on the service life of the house, it may take decades to move or renovate it. There is no such old-fashioned design as eight floors without an elevator. There may or may not be a small shop on the ground floor below my grandpa and grandma's house. There used to be a small shop downstairs. It was really convenient. There were many small shops around, and there were a lot of small toys. Cards for sale. I remember that when I was young, I was very happy to go to those small shops, buy some snack food, and look at some small toys again and again. If I saw too much, my family might ask for money to buy goods. For some small shops, Stock up and have hope, you might be able to choose the product you like. Many bungalows downstairs have been turned into buildings and corridors. Many houses have been built in the former vacant land, and some houses have elevators. The former site of the public bath outside the factory is still there, but it has been renovated and some areas are still empty. The old site of the factory was still the same many years ago. What it looks like now, the author has not been to the factory for more than ten years and has no idea. In my original home, I could walk for ten minutes to a market. It seems that there is still one now. Even if it is not, it is assumed that there is still one. It is a morning market with a wide variety of products. The area near Qiaotou has been renovated. It used to be about ten minutes' walk from my home, and I had to take the boarding school bus. There is a bus stop at Qiaotou. I don't know if some school buses still pass by there, maybe they don't exist anymore. Ahead of the bridge, next to the shopping mall, there is a four-star hotel, which is the most upscale accommodation in the area. There are many small hotels in the surrounding area, but few hotels. The original store disappeared twenty years ago and became a high-end shopping mall. That mall was quite famous in the local area. The main store was in the city and there were many chain shopping malls in the area. Opposite the shopping mall, there used to be a street of markets and shops, but later it became a commercial plaza with shops and large supermarkets. Further on, there is an apartment complex where my grandparents’ children live. There are thousands of households in that community. , there are high-rise apartments with 20 or 30 floors. In the past, there were very few high-rise buildings in that area. Nowadays, even many residential areas are built with high-rise buildings. There are small supermarkets and many restaurants near that community, and there is an underground market not far away. The author has returned to his hometown many times in the past few years and lived there, but he doesn’t like it very much. He still feels that the old house has a more family feel because my grandparents lived in that house and lived with me for many years.

I watched a video of a TV series' commentary some time ago, and I thought it wasn't as good as the reviews. It's just that some scenes and words in the TV series can resonate and be recalled by many people.

Some of the people who wrote about these things are no longer here, but I am still recalling and commemorating these past events.

Looking back again, the figure has gone far away. Looking back again, my eyes are filled with tears. Some things not only look back on, but also look at many times. Some remembrances are because they are worth commemorating, giving thanks for, and giving thanks for.
