Chapter 63 The movie is based on her

Jiang Yao actually didn't have a particular movie that she wanted to see, so Shen Yu randomly chose a movie that had just been released and had a good box office reputation - "I Have a Dream".

Just listening to the name, it looks like an inspirational movie.

Suitable for children who are still in school.

but……

The first shot of the movie is on the magnificent river, and then a baby's cry is heard, and the camera slowly moves to the shore.

Under the night, a little milk baby wrapped in a quilt was lying alone on the shore, crying louder and louder.

Immediately afterwards, as soon as the camera turned, it came to a father and son.

They had just disembarked from the boat, speaking a local dialect, chatting about family matters.

"Take Xiuhe to the hospital again. If you still can't conceive...you can adopt one."

"……Um."

"Is there a baby crying? Do you hear that?"

"Father, over there!"

The father and son walked over one by one, lifted the quilt and saw a newborn baby with its mouth wide open, crying.

The two looked around, but there was no one in sight.

"Which one is so cruel, throwing such a small doll by the river?"

"It seems...it's God's will."

The father and son finally decided to take the baby back home.

In fact, when the abandoned baby appeared by the river, Shen Yu had already frowned. He turned his head to look at the little girl beside him, and saw that she was fascinated by it, so he continued to look at it.

It's just that the corner of the eye will flick to the side from time to time, for fear that the little girl will fall in love with the scene.

*
The father and son are named Yang Shuen and Yang Tianbao.

After they took the little baby home, Tianbao's wife ran out crying without saying a word, and was finally found by Tianbao.

"From today onwards, she is the daughter of our old Yang family."

Yang Shuen named the little milk baby Xi'er, not only hoping that she would be happy forever, but also that she would bring some good luck to the Yang family.

In a blink of an eye, it has been six months since Xiao Xi'er came to the Yang family, and Xiuhe's frequent morning sickness brought another happy event to the Yang family.

Neighbors in the village join in wherever the excitement is, and they especially like to say sarcastic remarks.

"This Xiuhe hasn't conceived for many years, but Xi'er became pregnant as soon as Xi'er came. This is a little lucky star sent to your Yang family by the heavens. You have to treat her well in the future."

"Yes, yes, the one in Xiuhe's stomach must have been recruited by Xi'er. You don't want to give Xi'er to someone else to raise if you don't have your own."

Originally, Xiuhe wanted to send Xi'er away, but she was afraid of being blamed, so she finally kept Xi'er.

When the screen changed, Xi'er had turned into a five or six-year-old.

The flowered jacket she was wearing had one patch on the left and one patch on the right. The cotton shoes on her feet had been mended again and again, and the two braids on her head were also loose, making her look more like a beggar.

The younger brother was locked in a chicken coop by a group of children.

She beat them when she got angry, and two of them were bleeding, but she herself was injured, but when the parents of the other party came to find them, the adoptive mother picked up a stick as thick as a wrist and greeted her.

"I asked you to go out and cause trouble for me!"

"The family is so poor that it's almost impossible to get rid of it. Where do you want me to go to collect medical expenses for others!"

Xi'er knelt on the ground, stubbornly refusing to admit her mistake, no matter how hard her adoptive mother beat her, she refused to admit her mistake. Finally, her adoptive mother had no choice but to throw the stick in her hand on the ground.

"The family doesn't have any money now. If you feel that your children have suffered, then call them back."

Naturally, the parents of the bear kids would not do anything to a child, but the bear kids would. They surrounded Xi'er and retaliated wantonly.

Enough fighting, relieved anger, this matter can be considered resolved.

After they left, Xi'er was still kneeling on the ground, stubbornly refusing to shed a single tear.

Xiuhe looked at her adopted daughter, her hair had already been turned into a chicken coop by those children, and there were two nail scratches on her cheeks, she looked quite embarrassed.

Her eyes were red: "Will you still hit people in the future!"

Xi'er twitched her neck: "They put my brother in a chicken coop, that's why I beat them!"

Xiuhe shouted: "Then you can't beat people!"

Xi'er asked back, "Then what if they strike first? Can't I fight back too?"

Xiuhe was silent for a long time before replying.

"How many times have I told you that the family is almost out of money to buy rice. If you hurt someone, where can I borrow the medical expenses!"

"When you go out in the future, stay away from them when you see them. If there is another time... if there is another time, you will be starved and you will not be allowed to eat for two days!"

This year, Xi'er was six years old.

Because of what her adoptive mother said, she learned to endure.

When Xi'er was seven years old, her adoptive mother became pregnant again, and this year, her younger brother was abducted by human traffickers.

The subsequent storyline is almost exactly the same as Jiang Yao's childhood memories.

Xi'er's adoptive father fell ill, so Xi'er followed her grandfather down the river to retrieve the corpse.

Later, a foreigner came here to do errands. Seeing that she had started to go down the river with her grandfather at a young age, he asked her, "Do you have any dreams?"

Xi'er thought for a long time, and only replied one sentence.

"I want to go to school."

The man left 5000 yuan for Xi'er when he left, which also gave the poor Yang family a chance to breathe.

Of course, Xi'er did not go to school, but left the opportunity to go to school to her younger sister.

But the story ends in tragedy.

Xi'er is dead.

Died when she was 17 years old.

Died in the river she was most familiar with.

When the camera slowly moved from the river to the river surface, the dark night made the river surface even more lonely, which also echoed the scene at the beginning of the story.

In the 10-minute movie, there are actually several tear-jerking scenes, but Jiang Yao never cried.

until the last shot.

When Xi'er sank into the bottom of the sea, tears welled up in her eyes.

If the biological mother hadn't come to look for her, maybe Xi'er's ending would be her ending too.

Shen Yu handed the tissue to the little girl. He had been waiting for her to cry, but he didn't expect her to endure it until the end.

Seeing the little girl crying and wiping her tears, he sighed softly, put his hand on her head, and stroked her gently a few times.

After she cried enough, he asked her softly.

"Do you want to go to the beach?"

Jiang Yao nodded with her eyes swollen.

*
On the way to the beach, Shen Yu asked the little girl beside him.

"The man who gave you the money bought out your 'story copyright'?"

Although this sentence is an interrogative sentence, the tone is very firm.

Shen Yu is so smart, this movie was originally adapted from a true story, so when a pair of corpse hunters picked up the abandoned baby on the shore, he had already started to suspect.

And then the younger brother was abducted, the adoptive father fell ill, and the heroine had to go down the river with her grandfather to retrieve the corpse. Such a similar experience, it would be too coincidental to call it a coincidence.

Jiang Yao admitted.

The heroine Xi'er in this movie is indeed based on her.

[He said he wanted to adapt my story into a movie. 】

[If I agree, you can give me 5000 yuan. 】

5000 yuan was an astronomical figure for the Jiang family at that time.

She has no reason to disagree.

Shen Yu actually didn't like the ending of this movie very much, perhaps because the protagonist of the story was based on a little girl.

The word death is depressing.

The little girl already has a mental illness, and this tragic ending is very likely to affect her condition.

Therefore, Xi'er's ending...has to be changed.

Xu Zhao is the director and screenwriter of this film. Just when he was happy with the film's performance, he suddenly received a task - to change the ending.

"Change what!"

"The movie has been aired, and the box office and word-of-mouth are very good. This must be water in Dong Wang's mind!"

Although Xu Zhao is not well-known, he has a good temper. He has an unusual paranoia about art. He thinks the tragic ending of this movie is the most touching, so he is determined not to change it.

But in the end, he succumbed to the despotic power of capital and bowed his head to capital.
