Start earning money as the girl next door

It's not that those two girls are prettier than Liu Mengcheng, it's just that when men see girls with good figures, they can't help but look at them more.

There is only so much benefit in the hot summer weather.

"You bastard!" Liu Mengcheng couldn't help but squeeze Zhao Han's arm.

"It hurts!" Zhao Han couldn't help but regretted it.

At night... some stores on the street closed and the street lights turned on. Then some food stalls and barbecue and fried food stalls began to set up their stalls one after another.

What is Zibo Barbecue and what is the street stall economy in future generations?

Zhao Han only felt funny. The reason was that before it developed, it was similar to the Zibo barbecue and the snack stalls set up at night. Barbecuing, frying, food stalls, and crayfish, weren't there too many?

Not less at all!

In later generations, it seems like seeing something new, but to be honest, that kind of fireworks is essentially a manifestation of consumption downgrade.

Consumption upgrading pursues high-end, while consumption downgrading pursues economic benefits and does not pay attention to high-end.

Roughly speaking, going back to 2004, Zibo Barbecue was all over the country.

Later, when the economy developed better, the phenomenon of blind consumption upgrades appeared, which made some ordinary people with low incomes feel that it was difficult for their wallets to match their materialistic desires, and they missed the past.

It’s not the charm of Zibo Barbecue itself, it’s just a return to the slow-paced and lower-cost-of-living consumption environment of the past.

Not looking for the kind of fancy and expensive Internet celebrity stores, but just eat at some roadside stalls.They couldn't afford to roll up anymore, so many people chose to take a step back.

"Master, here are 20 skewers of mutton skewers. It looks like you are grilling them authentically?" Zhao Han asked.

"Yes! I have been to Inner Mongolia, Xinjiang and other places and learned various barbecue techniques. In the past, I was just a gourmet, traveling and eating everywhere. Later, during the middle-aged economic crisis, I set up a stall to support my family!" The barbecue master has a lot of stories. said.

"Oh?" Zhao Han said, "What did master do before?"

"Farmers," the barbecue master said, "Unforeseen circumstances happen, and there is nothing we can do. The pond dries up, and we suffer huge losses. We can no longer continue our business. Then we started to pick up the craft and start making barbecue."

"Indeed! The risk of breeding is quite high, even higher than farming." Zhao Han nodded, generally contracting small fish ponds in rural areas, the risk is indeed relatively high.During the flood season, the fish in the fish ponds run away when the water rises.If the weather is dry, fish will die just like water dries up.

In short, it would be difficult for those who generally contract fish ponds to do so unless they have rich experience and control costs.

As for farming in some relatively large lakes, the threshold is relatively high, and ordinary farmers are not qualified.

In addition to these risks, there are fish price fluctuations and fish feed price fluctuations.

In a sense, the risk of freshwater farming is higher than that of pig farming.

Many retail farmers who raised pigs in rural areas were later eliminated by the pig cycle, and they would have enjoyed the blessings earlier if they stopped raising pigs.Raising pigs will make you rich if you do it well, but it is indeed a common way for rural people to lose money if they don't do it well.

The risks of freshwater farming are higher than those of pig farming.

Of course, the reason why there are still people who support high risks is that sometimes... you can make huge profits!As long as those risks don't happen.In other words, God will provide that the fish ponds will not be drought or flooded, the price of fish will not be too low, and the price of fish feed will not be too high.

The requirements are so high...

After ordinary people figure it out, they probably won't do this business anymore.It was so scary, so uncertain.

Well, in fact, poverty in rural areas is largely due to not only the lack of agricultural resources per capita, but also the natural disasters that have accompanied agriculture since ancient times.

As modern people's economy has developed, their income no longer depends on farming. Many people are indifferent to the difficulties and risks of agriculture.

But in fact, agriculture-related industries are really difficult to make money and easy to lose money.

Rural people encourage their descendants to study hard and not come back to farm. The reason is indeed that the countryside is still too poor at this stage.

While chatting, the barbecue is ready...

Zhao Han gave Liu Mengcheng a few, and he ate more.A skewer of mutton skewers costs [-] cents, which feels like more meat than the later price of [-] yuan a skewer, and it’s still fresh lamb.

"taste good or not?"

"That's great!"

We ate while walking, and then there were various common night market snacks such as fried stinky tofu, cold skin, etc.

Zhang Lihua can make these snacks, but she has a specialization in the art, so she doesn't prepare them specially.

Therefore, the two of them had a great time eating.

I didn't eat any real meals, just relying on these snacks to keep me full.

When we arrived at the cinema, we were almost half full.

Well, "House of Flying Daggers" is released in July and is almost out of theaters now.Therefore, the special ticket price is 5 yuan.

Cheaper than online discount movie tickets in later generations.

Movies in the county were originally cheaper than in the provincial capital and big cities. Now the two public cinemas seem to be on the verge of collapse and may collapse at any time.

Well, in later generations, these two two-dimensional public cinemas did indeed close down.After that, movie theaters in the county towns were all in nooks and crannies. Some private theaters opened theaters in corners with cheap rents that were not easy to find.

Nowadays, movie theaters can organize a school, multiple classes of the entire grade, and thousands of people to book the movie.

Then...it's obvious that your cinema can't sell tickets, so if you reserve the theater to watch a movie, you usually charge extra money, for example, one yuan or two yuan.

Naturally, it is much cheaper than buying tickets normally. This is not a problem. The problem is that when Zhao Han was in school, he organized a movie viewing and just skipped the movie and went online.Then, I still have to pay for the movie tickets. What’s even more annoying is that I often have to write down my thoughts after watching the movie as homework!

Grass is a plant!

Because Zhao Han has escaped from movies so many times, he has developed the habit of writing about his impressions after watching a movie without even watching it.

Well, sometimes I can’t write, so I seem to ask my classmates to learn from it.

In the past, when he was a student, he had discounted ticket prices and Zhao Han was a frequent visitor to the movies.

Now I take the initiative to buy tickets to watch movies. The Chinese teacher at that time was probably speechless. Is it really difficult to watch a movie and write a review after reading it?Cultivate the ability to write film reviews. Start practicing at a young age. Later, when you brag about it online, you will also be able to write film reviews.

No, damn, it sucks!This movie was shot like shit...

After entering the cinema.

It's dark, waiting for the cinema projectionist to prepare it.

Zhao Han took Coke and snacks, eating a few from time to time, and feeding the person next to him.

"Hahaha……"

Now it's suddenly hilarious.

Because if you put the wrong movie, it will be the kind of movie that won’t slip through the crackdown on pornography.

There were many people present, and Zhao Han smiled heartily when he saw the title of the movie "The Legend of Jade Group".All I can say is that although this film is bad, it is more sincere than "House of Flying Daggers" might have been.

Chapter 2: Ambush from all sides

The projectionist made a mistake and showed a title called "The Legend of Jade Group", and then quickly withdrew it, but Zhao Han watched the follow-up.

Whether it's the creativity of the plot or the acting skills of the actors in it.That's right, it almost doesn't look like an act. Are you saying the acting is poor?

Hong Kong's film and television industry, until the 90s, maintained more than 2 practitioners with high professional standards.Until the older generation of talents cultivated in the golden age of Hong Kong films wither away, Hong Kong films can be said to be the most important talent pool for Chinese films.

Directors, actors, screenwriters, arrangers, and various behind-the-scenes staff are all very professional.

At this stage, the domestic film industry mainly cooperates with some of the reputational advantages of the golden age of Hong Kong films, such as actors and stars.

As for the real content of Hong Kong films, the behind-the-scenes production team does not pay much attention to it.

It can be said that only some face is saved, but very little of the face of real Hong Kong movies is used.

For example, "House of Flying Daggers" is a bunch of Hong Kong stars paired with mainland stars, and the main production team is Zhang Yimou's team.

The top-matching stars act out a martial arts love triangle.I also want to incorporate the Infernal Affairs element into it.

Zhao Han's main criticism of "House of Flying Daggers" is that the director and actors are not matched, and the screenwriting is also a mess.

To put it simply, Zhang Yimou's group of fifth-generation directors are the kind of directors whose cultural level and aesthetic ability cannot keep up with the times, but who think they are fashionable and overestimate their fame than their strength.

Speaking of Xie Jin and Xie Tieli, the third generation of feature film makers, they beat the fifth generation of directors in an instant.

If compared to the ability to control blockbusters in the industrial era, the younger director of the "Wandering Earth" series, Guo Fan, who is not even a few generations of directors later, directly eclipses the entire group of fifth-generation directors.

Guo Fan speaks with his strength and status, proving that the fifth generation of great directors have not yet touched the threshold of blockbuster movies.

Until, Guo Fan was regarded as a textbook-level science popularizer for Chinese filmmakers, top science fiction blockbusters, and industrial-level blockbuster shooting processes.

Previously, those blockbusters were all burning money indiscriminately and in the wrong places.

Of course, before Guo Fan, these great directors made one bad movie after another, and the audience could only endure it, thinking that it was all the same, so what else could they do?

After Guo Fan, the audience's aesthetic ability was suddenly improved by several levels, and they suddenly couldn't bear the illiteracy and ignorance of filmmakers.

After the movie officially starts.

Zhao Han had a fun-loving attitude and watched Lao Mouzi's movies.

As a latecomer, the film industry’s paint job has long been exposed, and Lao Mouzi’s divinity has been damaged long ago.

Even if Lao Mouzi is rated better than Chen Kaige, in essence, it is still better than a bad one.

Abandon unrealistic fantasies and just watch it with the mentality of watching a bad movie. Indeed... you can find some bright spots.

For example, some scenes can be shot well, and Lao Mouzi will not starve to death if he changes his career to making music videos.

In addition, Zhang Ziyi dances well.Watch a dance, just treat it like a musical and have fun watching it, don't read the plot in detail.

Lao Mouzi has tried his best... Bah!

I used to think it was a problem with actors like Andy Lau, but Zhao Han re-examined the movie and found that every actor had no faults and performed very devotedly.

Mainly due to the awkward plot and Zhang Yimou's personal aesthetic issues, the story of this film was not clear and it was made up of a bunch of confusing scenes to confuse people.

simply say.Zhang Yimou first understood the concept of martial arts films.

If it were a script that told a good story, the acting skills of Takeshi Kaneshiro, Andy Lau, and Zhang Ziyi would be decent.

It turned out to be a bad movie. In a sense, it should be a hodgepodge of the director's thinking.

I mixed a bunch of elements and created a movie that pretends to be profound but is actually bullshit.

In fact, according to the standards of later "The Promise", it is measured by a murder caused by a steamed bun. "House of Flying Daggers" is also the same thing, and it doesn't seem to be any better than a murder caused by a steamed bun.

The difference may be that the plot of "House of Flying Daggers" is a little simpler, which leaves less room for netizens to play when creating ghosts.

Zhao Han watched it with the expectation of being the worst movie, but found that there were still some bright spots. It was bad...but not completely bad. The feeling of Schrödinger's bad movie made Zhao Han feel a kind of magic.

For films with this kind of theme, "Xiu Chun Dao", which Zhao Han watched later, was more than one level better than Lao Mouzi.

It can only be said that subsequent films have been produced by generations of talented people, but unfortunately... Lao Mouzi's box office appeal is not as good as his box office.

Well... countless experiences later made Zhao Han understand one thing again and again: Lao Mouzi's trailer must be "Preview Scam".

The blockbuster movies made by Lao Mouzi can basically be compared to the big bad movies. Well, they all do very well at the box office.It always lacks the real blockbuster temperament...

In a sense, the weirder the blockbuster, the less likely it is to rewrite the screenplay, which may be the main reason for the crotch stretch.

Of course, Liu Mengcheng next to him was quite engrossed in watching it, and even blushed when he saw some embarrassing scenes.

After watching the movie, Liu Mengcheng came back to his senses: "That's it?"

This plot, let alone those masters and famous figures in the martial arts era, even if you find someone to write the script, it won't be so bad?

You can’t say it’s cliché, the reason is – it’s so bad, it’s a new idea, and there aren’t many works like this.

Cliché means that plots created by others are good. If you copy a classic plot, if you use it too much, it will become cliché.

It's vulgar. If a classic plot is made into a bad movie, it's vulgar.

And "House of Flying Daggers" is not cliché or vulgar, but a bad movie with innovative spirit.

Some martial arts, some Infernal Affairs, some history, some dance, all kinds of random ideas, just throw them in there as soon as they come up.

As a result, the compatibility was not good and it turned into a bad movie.

"Otherwise?" Zhao Han smiled.

"I thought the great director Zhang Yimou would be so brilliant, but it turned out to be such a vulgar and bad movie?" Liu Mengcheng basically saw that screenwriters of so-called blockbusters can be so bad.

To a certain extent, it’s basically the director’s aesthetic that has failed to keep up with the times.When I'm old... I think that things that are fashionable and cool are replaced by young people, and I think... that's it? !

Therefore, the elderly can do something deep and nostalgic.

The kind of behavior that wants to follow the aesthetics of one's youth and make today's young people feel that the photos are really cool is really, LOW!

This LOW is because I was pushed down by the times!

To show off, let the younger ones do it.Otherwise, the outdated way of showing off will not make people feel awesome.
