Chapter 295: Jingcheng Yanzi Valley
(Many years later)
It was sunny outside the window, and Chen Li was typing on a computer. There was only one bookmark in her notebook, and the bookmark was "Advantage".
Copywriting, interviews, videos, and popular topics appeared in the bookmark of "advantages". Lei Biao, who came to call Chen Li to have a meal, glanced at him and said, "Why are there only advantages but no shortcomings?"
"Go and go, you will know how to peek," Chen Li hurriedly closed the computer.
"Why are there only advantages but no shortcomings?" Lei Biao repeated with a smile.
"Because you know how to reorganize your own advantages and maximize your advantages. Time has to be spent on the blade!" Chen Li said while pushing Lei Biao out of the door, "What's more, Isn't you still have my shortcomings? If you don't make up for it, what's the use of marrying you?"
Lei Biao: "..."
"Qinqin! It's time to eat!" Chen Li knocked on Liu Qinqin's door.
Today is Sunday. Liu Qinqin, who is home to be a home girl during the summer vacation, knew that Uncle Lei Biao must have made another good dish. When she smelled the smell, nothing unexpected happened. It was her favorite five-spice pig trotter.
"Come now!" Liu Qinqin's computer was playing Chen Li's video at this time. Next to the computer was a hard leather notebook of A4 size, and a thick stack of books were tired on both sides of the corners of the desk.
"Script Structure Design", "Screenwriter's Strategy", "Screenwriter's Core Skills", "Movie Screenwriter Creation Guide", "Story Strategy", "Save Cats"...
Today, Liu Qinqin is already a sophomore in screenwriting major in a famous drama academy in China. Many of her homework inspirations in college come from her mother Chen Li’s video account.
Many of the content in the video made Liu Qinqin, who is now studying in big cities, feel empathy.
"In Qingyang, a big city with a population of tens of millions, the lights that can be kept by thousands of families are locals of beautiful origins and foreigners who can hold back tears and excel."
The more you watch these videos, the more proud Liu Qinqin is for her mother Chen Li.
Liu Qinqin met several uncles, aunts, and older brothers and sisters who often appear in the video.
One of the uncles is fat. Although this uncle shouted to quit milk tea all day long and wanted to lose weight, he did exercise with his wife every week, but his figure is still illogically fatter.
Chen Li told Liu Qinqin: "You uncle Ren Tianxing's industry is under great pressure. The investment manager stays up late every day, not to mention that he has recently been preparing to be promoted to investment director, and he has indeed quit milk tea. It turned out that he almost four or five cups a day, and now he only orders once a week.
Liu Qinqin described Ren Tianxing in her notebook this way:
Uncle Ren’s ideal is great. He said that he wants to become China’s top investor, help thousands of real enterprises get out of difficulties, grow and grow, dominate the country, and go to the world.
Uncle Ren said: "If you want to become a professional investor, you must first become a professional industry analyst and then participate in the entrepreneurial process as much as possible. Analysts who have poor careers are not good investors."
Although I don't understand this deeply, this should be the most reliable of all the words Uncle Ren has said, at least more reliable than he said that he wants to develop eight-pack abs.
Uncle Ren also said that the powerful power behind investors was curious.
Curiosity reminds us that we have the limitations of our self-awareness at this stage, and curiosity makes us more willing to spend time exploring unknown areas.
Uncle Ren also said that successful investment does not require genius IQ, extraordinary economic vision, or insider information. All it takes is the correct thinking pattern when making investment decisions, and the ability to avoid emotional damage to rational thinking.
For some reason, I think that although Uncle Ren said this sounds right, it is very dogmatic. Maybe his words were copied...
In addition, when we were having dinner together, Uncle Ren also liked to talk about business logic, financial markets, macroeconomics, etc.... But I can't remember it. The teacher told me that if there is no memory, it is not worth writing into the script.
However, there is a sentence that Uncle Ren mentioned at the dinner table that I was deeply impressed and remembered until now, and this sentence is: "The best partner is not to pursue the dazzling and extraordinary, but to be with ordinary people who are suitable for you, so that they will become more and more extraordinary."
I think this sentence has a very novel understanding of love and is a good material for love dramas.
Oh, by the way, Uncle Ren has always asked me to call him brother because the age difference between us is not as good as 12 years old and belongs to the same generation. But every time I see his worrying hairline, the word "brother" makes me feel abnormally twisted, so in my notebook, I should call him uncle.
Uncle Ren has many shining points of blood, but when the protagonist of my script seems to be nothing short of it. Unlike Uncle Ren, Sister Guan Sha, sister. Sister Guan Sha’s face is definitely the natural protagonist, so beautiful. The department of the Performance Department of our Drama Academy is not as beautiful as hers. It’s no exaggeration to say that I feel that only God can pinch her face. It’s a work of art. Every facial feature that is taken apart is a work of art.
Although Sister Guan Sha is about the same age as Uncle Ren, I spontaneously want to call her sister, mainly to such a fairy beauty. I really can't call the word "aunt".
My mother used to tell me that Sister Guan Sha was decisive and did everything at will, and was a very successful female entrepreneur.
Actually, it’s not necessary for my mother to say that I’ve seen it from the video. Now the apartment brands that can be seen everywhere in the city are “Yanzigu”, Dongcheng, Xicheng, Taifeng, Yishun, Guping, Tongzhou... I can’t give any examples, even the senior I secretly love has chosen Yanzigu Apartment after graduation.
He also recommended it in the student union group, saying that cleaning, repair, laundry, moving, fitness, book exchange and purchases are all available, and value-added services include various self-improvement courses, English, video editing, programming, excel professional training, reading, listening to books, dog walking and pet foster care, etc.
I didn't tell my senior that my mother is one of the founders of this apartment. From this perspective, I should thank Sister Guan Sha. If my mother didn't know Sister Guan Sha, she would not have achieved what she has today in her career, and I cannot respect my heart and chose a liberal arts major in college.
I remember almost every word Sister Guan Sha told me.
She said:
"Qinqin, when you grow up, you must dare to do things that others laugh at."
"The path I choose is cool, but as long as I like it, I can have fun in the suffering."
"If one day you can't write your script, it doesn't matter. Stop writing, go outside and breathe fresh air, watch a few movies, and remember the four words "Life to death."
The sister Guan Sha I really came into contact with was actually much different from the one I saw in the early videos.
In the early video, Sister Guan Sha was carefree and occasionally played with my mother, but now she is very mature and steady. She doesn’t even get drunk by my mother maliciously. Last time during the Chinese New Year, after eating ten cups of Maotai, she could even say to the camera, "If you want to do something that shocks the world, you have to focus on small areas and expand your boundaries in the process of constantly proving yourself. Just as Zweig has already pointed out in "When the Stars of Humanity Shine", most of the time, history is boring and long, and you just keep preparing for some highlight moments."
There are many highlights of Sister Guan Sha, and my mother also has been growing through these light careers.
Since I went to college, my mother has set up her own studio to interview successful entrepreneurs.
Not to mention how much money the studio's annual income can bring to our family, at least I think my mother's knowledge boundaries continue to improve in interviews again and again. Sometimes when I listen to my mother, I don't think she is just a high school student, but a university professor...
Some of the founders of the company interviewed by my mother made medical devices, some made electronic chips, some made traditional ceramics, some made VR display equipment, and some made polymer materials.
I have watched all these videos and made a lot of notes. This is the material support for me to write scripts independently in the future.
Oh, by the way, there is another person in the mother's video that is very mysterious, because he only appeared twice. His name is Xiao Jie, and I call him Uncle Xiao. Uncle Xiao is Guan Sha's sister's husband. They have been married for many years and have always had a good relationship.
My mother told me that Uncle Xiao is a very successful investor. In recent years, several companies he invested in have been listed, including those who make beauty products, coffee and milk tea products, and rental websites. Of course, our Yanzigu Apartment.
In my mother's video, the first time Uncle Xiao appeared was a cocktail party many years ago, and the second time he answered a question from my mother in the office. The question was: "What do you think is the essence of an investor?"
Uncle Xiao replied: "I think the investor is actually the trustee, which is called fiduciary in English. The investor's responsibility is to keep the interests of all parties consistent."
I don't understand what he said, but once he came to our house to thank my mother, saying that my mother brought many customers to Jinquan Investment Group, but my mother said that this was not her credit. She was just a disseminator of information, not the creator of information. If you really want to thank me, I should thank Sister Guan Sha.
We think it was Sister Guan Sha’s praise at the cocktail party that many investors and entrepreneurs changed their views on Jinquan Group, but Sister Guan Sha herself did not admit this. She said that her success, as well as the success of Yanzigu Apartment and Jinquan Group, was because of everyone.
In short, I felt it was boring to thank them that day. It was as boring as everyone gave red envelopes and shouting at each other during the Chinese New Year. However, as an observer, I still found it quite interesting. After all, everything in life is script material.
Actually, I regret not studying finance like other students. It’s not because I can become very rich in finance, but that students who study finance only need to study finance. However, students who study screenwriters strictly say that they have to learn all subjects, history, biology, medicine, economics, psychology, marketing... I feel that my brain is no longer needed. Just writing what’s happening around me is not enough...
Many stories have given up at the beginning.
But I will continue this path because I chose it myself and liked it. I remember the four words "living towards death".
...
"Qinqin! Have you heard it?!" At this time, Shen Li's repeated knocks came from outside the door.
"Here's here!"
Liu Qinqin quickly logged out of her login account, and her account name is: Jimu.
"Qinqin, didn't you say you wanted to write all our stories into scripts?" Lei Biao asked while serving Liu Qinqin.
Liu Qinqin pulled open the stool and sat down, "That's what I plan to do, but she doesn't have enough professional knowledge at present, so she is still looking up information."
"Am I the protagonist?" Lei Biao asked.
"Go and go... what kind of protagonist..." Chen Li signaled Lei Biao to go to the refrigerator to get the drinks, and sat down and asked Liu Qinqin, "Qinqin, if you want to write us, what is your script going to be called?"
Liu Qinqin lowered her eyebrows and pondered for a moment, then said, "Since we all live in Yanzi Valley in Jingcheng District and there are many people, then... "Yanzi Valley in Yanzi Valley in Jingcheng"!"
