Good Samaritan Mr Yu (The Warmhearted Mr. Yu) - Chapter 6

Shen Yu knew the name Zhong Simo, probably earlier than others thought.

At that time, he had just entered a film school in a daze. At the age of seventeen, he hadn’t figured out what he was going to do in the future. He followed the crowd in class every day. Until a film appreciation class, the instructor played an independent film for them as an extracurricular expansion.

The story told by the movie Qingmei takes place in a small western town that is always grayish. At the beginning of the film, the camera stretches from dark to bright along the bumpy road, stopping on a pair of Nike classic replica sneakers.

The young support teacher dragged three large suitcases off the long-distance bus, ignoring the brand-name sneakers that were stepped on by the passengers in the car. He looked around and smiled with eight teeth. He came to this small city with dreams and enthusiasm, exuding a light incompatible with it.

Soon, the young people settled in a junior high school that they had contacted in advance, and taught maths to the third-year children here.

The children called him Teacher Zhou, and they surrounded him in his spare time to listen to stories and learn from him to play basketball. The young man felt that he was a successful teacher and it was worth it.

It is a pity that there is a taciturn girl in the class who never talks to him much, nor does she communicate and play with her classmates. The young man paid attention. One time when the little girl handed in her homework alone, he accidentally found traces of abuse on the other’s arm.

The kind-hearted young man said nothing. He decided to go to the little girl’s house to see what happened, but he bumped into the scene where the little girl’s stepfather grabbed her by the hair and couldn’t help beating.

The young man rushed in, trying to stop the stepfather, but the other party became more and more aggressive. When the young man was lost, the little girl picked up the Buddha statue on the table and smashed it down. The red blood stained the gray man. The town is stained with an unknown color

The shock of this movie to Shen Yu is like the first time humans discovered that the earth is not the center of the universe in a long time ago. He never thought that the movie could be such a form of expression, it could be so absurd and realistic, instead of a group of handsome men and women crying on the screen.

At the end of the film, when everything came to an end with a rare heavy snowfall, Shen Yu was still immersed in the desperate atmosphere, unable to sober up.

“There has been no other way, Teacher Zhou cluck, cluck”

“This is the first work of your director Zhong Simo, who was released not long ago. He is only one year older than you.” The old professor with gold glasses and white hair in a rigorous and elegant bun was on the stage. Some proudly said, “Film is a great art. Within five years, he will definitely have his place in the Chinese film scene.”

Zhong Simo’s rise to fame was faster than the old professor predicted. Perhaps it was the reason why the entire Chinese film industry fell into decline that year. Zhong Simo’s sudden rise with the green plum, swept the major film festival awards, and its starring Jin Ke also became The youngest actress in history. Since then, the name of Zhong Simo has become a myth that has not fallen for ten years in the entertainment industry.

And Shen Yu, who was inspired by that class and found a direction to work hard, ten years later, is struggling on the set of a third-line online drama.

Shen Yu shook his head mockingly, got up and planned to go back to the shooting spot, but before going out, he still folded a few a4 papers and carefully put them into the bag.
