We all have different personalities, that's why everyone doesn't have the same fate. That's what it should be, it's God's will. Otherwise humanity will be more conceited about the science it has created.
Admittedly, the more obvious our own personalities are, the more interesting people we are, and the more interesting people we ourselves are attracted to. If we are fortunate enough to know and communicate with each other, we will find that we unknowingly want to learn his unique temperament from each other. In this process, you will become more and more able to distinguish the temperament of interesting people who can move you more and more. This temperament may be completely different from your own, or it may be unusually similar to your own. It is really interesting people who are really worth meeting.
The stories of such people can often become movies. The biggest reason for a movie you really appreciate is that you are attracted by the temperament of the protagonist in the movie. It must be a quality that can stand the test of time. No matter how ordinary, bland, peaceful, and how "boring" the protagonist's life is. He must be closer to what life is really like, but unlike most people's lives, he's an interesting person.
We should not stick to a certain style. But he has a soft spot for the temperament and temperament that is more in line with his heart and soul.
It's like the movie "August Photo Studio", which is like boiled water. I love it, no doubt because I am attracted by the temperament of the film's male protagonist (Yong Won). Everything in the story happened naturally because of Yong Won's unique character.
Speaking of this, I suddenly understood that different movies are actually the interpretation of different fates under different characters of different protagonists. The interpretation of fate is the story. Everything on the outside is an aspect of the inner character.
Under the melodious sound of the piano, Yongyuan rode his motorcycle on the road smoothly on a sunny morning in August summer. The gentle wind was blowing on his body and his face. His soft hair was blown even more by the wind, and a faint smile appeared on his cheeks. This is the beginning of the film. In the title of less than a minute, you can already feel that the story will be as bright and warm as the hero. Although, you don't know what will happen next, but every time you see the smile that seems to hang on his face forever, you know that he is an honest and warm person, there is no doubt about it.
Yongyuan runs a photo studio on a not busy street. One day at work, Yongyuan suddenly received a call from his good friend Zhou Gao. He learned from the phone that Zhou Gao’s father had passed away. Zhou Gao asked Yongyuan to attend his father’s funeral. After attending the funeral, Yongyuan was very tired. When he returned to the store, he met Delin, a female traffic policeman who came to take photos at the door. That was the first time they met. But it cannot be denied that Delin was attracted by a certain temperament of Yongyuan, and she inexplicably developed a favorable impression of this gentle and elegant photo studio owner. Both of them seem to live as peacefully as every day, no matter what the outcome of their liking, but as long as each other still lives as usual, isn't it also a blessing. At this point in the film, only watching Yongyuan's story, no one can have any abnormal awareness, his soft hair has always brought people the same warm feeling as his smile. The photos of Delin Chong for the traffic violation check, the enlarged photos of the girls they like for the children, and the cooking for their father and sister, so ordinary and bland. During this period, there was only a small episode. On the street, he met his former lover, Zhi Yong, whom he had not seen for a long time. He wanted to say something, but they both seemed so unnatural. Delin is more ordinary than Yong Won. Every day, I drive a small bus with my colleagues, take pictures with cameras and punish illegal vehicles on the road. Occasionally, there is a dispute with the violator. During a law enforcement process, there was a dispute with the violator, and the camera was broken by the violator, so he had to take the camera to Yongyuan for repair. With his usual smile, Yongyuan promised to help Delin fix it, and Delin took a rest in the photo studio while she was repairing the camera. But she just wanted to ask the man she liked some personal questions about her birthday, zodiac sign and age. Dereen is lovely, and she starts to fall in love, even if it's her own story. Her courage is direct and shy, and their love draws a romantic in her first conversation and banter with Yong Won, in her closed eyes enjoying the fan blowing at the August summer photo studio comma.
During the family dinner, it seems that only the elder sister is worried about the physical condition of her brother, who seems to have no troubles. Others, including Yongyuan's father, obviously don't know something about Yongyuan. Of course, this kind of discovery is difficult, because Yong Won's every move is no different from usual.
Zhiyong was Yongyuan's first love, but for various reasons, the two couldn't be together. From the conversation between Yongyuan and his sister, we know that Zhiyong married someone who likes to gamble and lived a very uneasy life. . Hearing this, Yongyuan expressed his concern and helplessness for the unfortunate life suffered by Zhiyong with silence. He knew that these things were hard to change, because it was their family's private matter. Maybe the person Zhiyong married loved her too, maybe it was just because he couldn't express himself in a normal way to make his beautiful wife feel his presence, so he indulged himself and used gambling to arouse his wife's anger. Notice. He even used domestic violence to let his wife know of his existence and submit to him. Such morbid love is happening all the time in this world.
This morbid love, which greatly limits the freedom of others, makes people forced to change, and in the torment, they become "unrecognizable" from before. This story is the story of Zhi Yong's experience. The Zhi Yong that Yong Yuan likes is the innocent and radiant girl hanging in the window of his photo studio. And that Zhiyong was only fixed at that moment, and now she has become a fearful, sensitive, silent person in an unfortunate marriage. So when she saw Yongyuan for the first time, she was so unnatural, she was afraid that others would see her now, especially the one she loved. She naturally knew that she had become something she couldn't believe, but Yongyuan never changed. When they first met, Yongyuan said to Zhiyong "you haven't changed at all", and Zhiyong said "you too". Has Zhiyong changed? Maybe others, including Zhiyong himself, can see that she has changed, but Yongyuan is the only one, because he cares about Zhiyong. In his eyes, Zhiyong will always be the way she is in his own heart, no matter what she becomes. It can be said that before Yongyuan and Zhiyong met for the second time in his photo studio, Zhiyong was still Yongyuan's heart knot. He couldn't forget her, even though she had become a wife and suffered misfortune in marriage, maybe it was this misfortune that made him even more unable to forget her. They must have had a very beautiful love, but they couldn't live together in the end.
Worrying about Zhiyong's unfortunate marriage also prevented Yongyuan from marrying again, and has been single until now. The second time they met, it was Yong Yuan whom Zhi Yong came to look for in the photo studio. Yong Yuan was still the same Yong Yuan. He and Zhi Yong, who was sitting beside him cautiously, recalled the past in middle school and the past about love. Zhi Yong also temporarily forgot the hardships and misfortunes of life for her in the good memories of the past, and showed a long-lost smile. But that smile can only be short-lived. She still has to return to reality. For example, she still has to tell Yongyuan why she came to find him. She doesn't want her photo to hang in the window of the photo studio. Maybe it's the violent intimidation of her gambling husband. Maybe it's just that she doesn't want Yongyuan to remember her, to remember her who was completely different from now. Of course, she also knew about Yongyuan's illness, and she couldn't help worrying about the terrible disease that happened to Yongyuan. Although, all she can give is a bland greeting. As long as he can still see the people he misses, for Yongyuan, his illness is nothing to worry about.
The second meeting with Zhiyong was short-lived and also the last. But after this meeting, Yongyuan rationally faced his knot. The wind blew through Yong Yuan's hair safely through the bus window, Yong Yuan monologued in his heart, "Maybe, time will change everything. We chatted for a while, and Zhi Yong left. Before leaving, she asked me to Remove her picture from the window. I think our love is a thing of the past...".
Life went on, and Yongyuan went to the hospital's electrotherapy room for treatment regularly. After treatment, go home, cook and clean up as usual.
Does an interesting person like Yong Won have no friends? What kind of friend would a gentle man like him make. For a quiet person like him, the inner torment may only burst out by drinking a little wine. So, one night he found his good friend, the taekwondo coach Zhou Gao. They don't seem to be the same kind of people at all, but they are friends, real friends. Yongyuan's "unrestrainedness" in front of Zhou Gao and his drunken cry made him more real. It also finally made us feel the pain of death and the desire for life in Yongyuan's heart.
Yongyuan knew that he would not live long, but at the same time he did not know how long he could live. Just like the old grandmother who came to take a family photo. What is truly touching has always been the simple love of ordinary life. One afternoon, three generations of grandparents and grandchildren came to take a family photo. This should be a very common business that Yongyuan Photo Studio received. Women wear hanbok and men wear suits. The whole family was surrounded by the grandmother, Yongyuan patiently instructed the family to put them in the best state with the usual smile and prepared to take pictures of their family. Soon, the family portrait will be finished. When everyone was ready to disperse, the son asked Yong-won to take another photo of his mother alone. Mother first declined, then sat down and waited to take pictures.
One rainy night, the old grandmother came to the photo studio alone, and she begged Yong Won to help her take another photo for free. She knew that the photo last time was not taken well, of course Yongyuan agreed to her request, but the grandmother's seemingly insipid self-talk afterwards moved the hearts of the viewers. The grandmother said that I hope Yongyuan will take this photo well, because it will be her last photo. That's why she insisted on coming alone on a rainy night and taking Yongyuan's photo again. This time, before taking the photo, she carefully and conscientiously arranged her makeup to the best satisfaction. , We can't help but think of the son's request after the family photo was taken. He asked Yongyuan to take another photo of his mother alone, and explained to her mother that he finally came to the photo studio and took a photo alone. Bar. Let's try to get into this family's story. They knew their mother was going to die soon due to illness, and she didn't have a photo that would be suitable for a posthumous photo. In order not to make their mother suspicious, they decided to take a family photo as an excuse to take their mother and the whole family to take a last group photo as a souvenir, and persuade their mother to take a photo alone. They use the best they can to prevent damage to their mother's dignity. However, their mother is not confused, she should be able to see the intention of the children at once. She may have long been aware of her own life situation, and he knew that it was the love of the children and the respect for her life. Death is, of course, terrifying, but the careful respect that one makes before dying for the dignity of life makes the fear of death so trivial. This is the radiance of the dignity of life that death did not foresee. Long preparations and repeated attempts to find the most natural and beautiful gesture and expression before taking pictures, ended only after a flashing moment. Yongyuan pressed the shutter, but after the flash of the flash, Yongyuan realized that the grandmother continued to have the same look during the shooting process. Maybe she did not know that the shooting was over, but maybe she was reluctant to rush like this. end. Yongyuan understood, he couldn't bear to remind and announce the end of the last image of the grandmother's life. He immediately replaced another negative and continued to take pictures of the old grandmother. In this way, Yongyuan and grandma hope that the last time of life can stay longer and longer. The grandmother left the most beautiful smile in the last image of her life. This smile makes the black end, shining brightly.
To a certain extent, the appearance of the old grandmother deepened Yongyuan's understanding of death. Yong Won expressed his emotion in his own way. He sincerely said to the grandmother how beautiful you were when you were young. To affirm the history of a person's life in the last moments of her life is the highest reverence for life. On such a rainy night, in the face of such a serious topic as death, what happened in this small photo studio was an extremely warm story.
When Yongyuan returned to himself, when he returned from his grandma's calmness in the face of death to the fact that his life was about to end, he couldn't sleep alone on a rainy night with lightning and thunder. I think, in fact, it was because he was afraid of losing his family, friends and everything he loved on earth. He came to his father's room. As long as he could really look at what he was afraid of losing, his heart could regain stability and tranquility.
Does he not know what death means? He must know. Is such a calm person like him afraid of death? He was an ordinary man, and he had the right to fear death, no matter how strong he was during the day. The reason why Yongyuan faces death so calmly and always wears his usual smile, there is actually an answer in the monologue at the beginning of the film. "When I was young, all my classmates left. I was still sitting on the playground alone, thinking of my lost mother. I suddenly understood that we will all disappear eventually. Father, sister, all good friends..." The untimely death of his mother made him still The child's Yongyuan thought about death for a long time, consciously or unconsciously, in the process of growing up. He knows that death is not so terrible, and death is the final destination of people. This sentence also revealed the concern of Yongyuan's heart. He cares about his father, sister and his friends. This is the monologue at the beginning of the film. It is Yongyuan's long-term concern, but this concern will definitely change at the end of the film.
For a long time in Yongyuan's life, what he cared most about was his former lover Zhiyong, until after they met for the second time, he finally opened the knot in his heart. The one who can't let go of Yongyuan's life is his father, the man who lost his wife early, and his life depends on Yongyuan. Cooking, washing dishes, and playing videos all depend on Yongyuan, and Yongyuan can't worry about his elderly father. At one point he tried to teach his father how to use the remote himself to play videotapes. Father's failed attempts over and over again made him, who had never been calm, suddenly lose his patience, pushed the door open and left. He was angry not because of his father's "stupidity", but because he was really worried about such a father. He couldn't imagine what his father would do after his death. Can he take care of himself. Yongyuan, who had recovered his calmness, carefully wrote down the use of the video recorder step by step with a pen. It was the "suicide note" he left in his own way to the father he cared about.
What Yongyuan can't bear in his life is his friends with different personalities. You don't have to wonder why someone as quiet as Yong Won would know friends who look "rogue". Just imagine, there are a few of our real friends who are exactly the same as ourselves, but there are many who are not the same at all. They don't interfere with what you look like, they use their own way, with you in their hearts, drinking, watching football, and running on each other. Yongyuan was reluctant to have those "bad friends" he had. They didn't know that Yongyuan was about to die. Yong Won's best friend is the taekwondo coach, Zhou Gao. At the very beginning of the film, Yongyuan attended Zhou Gao's father's funeral, and Yongyuan's inner torment really broke out that night when he got drunk with Zhou Gao. He collapsed on Zhou Gao's chest and cried aloud. Only friends can make him cry hysterically without any scruples. As for his family's reluctance, he could only shut himself in the room and cry under the quilt. He would not let his father hear him. He could not let his father face such a blow.
Yong Won and his friends have an outdoor barbecue dinner. This should be how they often have dinner together. Everyone is as usual, playing cards with each other, impatiently urging for dinner. Maybe it was during this dinner that Yongyuan told them about his physical condition. And the "suicide note" written by Yongyuan to the group of friends he was reluctant to leave is a group photo of him and his group of friends. Same as the old grandma's shoot. This will be the last photo of Yong Won and his friends. Everyone stood there, all with red faces after drinking alcohol. This time the alcohol did not bring them any excitement. They kept the silence of the man, and their red eyes were full of tears. They hug Yongyuan and pat him on the shoulder, but they don't speak. The camera's shutter flashed quickly. This time, Yongyuan still said to take another picture. Take another photo, and let the time stay a little longer at a moment, a little longer.
Always think that you have said goodbye to all your worries. Saying goodbye to Zhiyong in the photo studio made him think that apart from family and friends, there is no longer any concern related to love. Because he has written all the "suicide notes" to them. Only Yongyuan's sister tried to remind him, not because she knew of Delin's existence, but because she saw the smile on the corner of her mouth when her brother lying on the hospital bed was asleep. Young Won has someone he loves and that would be her sister's instinct as a woman. This intuition is for her sister, which is a joy - she knows best what his brother has paid because of his concern for Zhiyong. She must think that Yongyuan will never feel love again, just like Zhiyong and Delin The question that Yongyuan asked, "Why are you still single?" It must be because of Zhiyong, but what she didn't know was that someone could bring the happiness of his brother's love. At the same time, this will be even more of her sadness. If his brother really feels the happiness of love, but that love is full of sadness because Yongyuan's life is about to end, because this love may end before it can begin. She asked Yongyuan, "Why are there no female visitors?...No one I want to see?" Yongyuan answered her with certainty, "No, I'm fine, I don't care about anyone."
If a person really lived in the world, It must be because he loved or is loving. If a person still has concerns at the last moment of his life, among his many concerns, the heavier weight in his heart should be love. It's just that Yongyuan doesn't easily believe that there is love between him and Delin. They are not very familiar with each other, and no matter which encounter it is, they cannot rashly conclude that it is love. The "most like" love was their only date to an amusement park.
For Delin, it's a love story, a true love story. She likes Yong Won and is attracted to him. She likes to go to him because she wants to see him, she wants to hear his voice, she wants to see him smile at her and talk about what she wants to talk about completely casually. Including her tentative inquiries about whether he is single, why he is single, and whether he wants to find a girlfriend. She, who never wears makeup, went to the grocery store to buy lipstick just because she wanted him to see her beauty. Of course the beautiful Deleen should not be short of suitors. If the person who pursues her is not only attracted to Delin's beauty, but also sees Delin's cuteness and kindness, then this person is really lucky enough. Delin's appearance makes Yongyuan's life no longer so peaceful. She believes that she will have Yong Won's love. Because she can feel that Yong Won likes her. Although they don't know each other well. Delin met Yongyuan by accident only because the work area happened to be where Yongyuan's photo studio was located. Yongyuan ran into Delin when he was refueling his motorcycle, and greeted her with his usual enthusiasm. Yongyuan ran into Delin on the way to grocery shopping, and he still greeted her with the same enthusiasm as a friend. Yongyuan encounters Delin who is struggling to carry a pile of heavy documents on the road, and still rides a bicycle as enthusiastically as a friend to help her check in. One rainy day Yongyuan repaired his car and encountered Delin who was passing by with an umbrella. Since Yongyuan did not bring an umbrella, the two walked with the same umbrella. These encounters that belonged to them were extraordinary in Delin's heart, and she might insist that they be attributed to love, romantic love. Especially the encounter on that rainy day, the rain was heavy and the umbrella was very small. The two of them could only get closer to make the rain less wet. Yongyuan handed Delin a handkerchief and asked her to wipe the rain. The wet cheeks, the handkerchief and the closeness in the rain made Delin feel the shyness and happiness of love.
Delin came to the photo studio that had not closed the store one night, and Yongyuan saw that Delin, who never made up, was actually wearing makeup. Apparently this was a visit that Dereen had carefully prepared. It was also a visit she had long wanted to visit, but it took courage for this innocent and lovely girl. Delin has almost achieved what a girl can do when she is in love. After being seen by Yong Won to make up, Delin looked shy, she wanted Yong Won to see the difference in her today, and she wanted Yong Won to see her beauty. Young-won is an honest man, and he makes no secret of boasting of Deleen's beauty. That's what Dereen wanted to hear, but when it was said by the person she liked, she seemed more reserved and even a little clumsy.
The two sat down and started chatting over beer and snacks such as shredded squid. Topic unknowingly what to do when it comes to Sunday. Yong-won tells Delin that his weekends are to sleep, wash his clothes for a while, and then sleep for a while. Delin used this topic to mention that one of his friends also worked on Sundays. Of course, Yongyuan asked curiously, why work on Sundays. "Didn't I tell you? I have a friend at the playground, and she promised to give me free tickets." Dereen said casually. Yongyuan, but smiled and said, "That's not very good." Seeing this always makes people smile. Everything seemed to be going as smoothly as Dereen had imagined. During the roller coaster ride, Delin held Yong Won's hand. The whole weekend of play was very enjoyable. Delin's vibrant life does not perceive the weakness of Eternal's life. She can run like flying on the playground, but Yong Won has been unable to catch up with her with his current life. Although he has tried his best to catch up with Delin. On a quiet night, Yongyuan and Delin were walking on the same quiet path. Yongyuan told Delin about the ghost story when he was a soldier, and when he was afraid, Delin held Yongyuan's hand. Delin said that she would never dare to walk alone here again. Of course she was not walking alone at that moment. She took Yongyuan's hand and walked with him. In fact, she said that she hoped that Yongyuan could walk with her forever. on this road. Her words were actually her faith in her love with Yongyuan. Delin then asked, "Aren't you afraid of ghosts?" Yongyuan said, "Sometimes you're afraid, sometimes you're not. It's natural for people to die and turn into ghosts..." This is Yongyuan's honest answer, which corresponds to his usual Calm and occasional fear. It was their first and last date.
If only the story could always match the one Dereen was in. At least on that quiet night, at the moment when Delin held Yongyuan's arm, this story was the story in Delin's story. Maybe when you like someone, you will unconsciously imitate his tone and tell your best friend stories about him. So, the next day, while sleeping at her friend's house, Dereen wanted to repeat the story to her friend.
But the story so far is no longer Delin's story. The photo studio that was open regularly on weekdays, the always smiling Yong Yuan in the photo studio, disappeared for a long time in Delin's long-awaited waiting day after day. She didn't even know what was going on. Innocent Dereen should not suffer from this waiting. She was transferred to another district, which meant that her future work would no longer be associated with the photo studio. She hopes to tell Yong Won all this, and what she wants more is to tell Yong Won that she has regarded him as her lover after that date. The autumn leaves had begun to fall, and she still couldn't see the photo studio lighting up again. Maybe she could have completely despaired of Yongyuan in this innocent slander, but that's not Delin. She shoved a copy of the letter into the photo studio through the crack of the door, because she was still waiting for Yong Won, and she loved him.
Dereen was dancing with her friends and the music was upbeat, but all of a sudden she was walking through the crowd and in the bathroom she was crying aggrieved in the mirror. She went back to the photo studio, picked up the stone and smashed the glass of the window with force. The sudden disappearance of a person, the loss of news and any news, is perhaps the most unfathomable pain for a person who loves him dearly.
It was not until Yongyuan returned to the photo studio one day and saw the broken glass and a stack of thick letters from Delin that came in through the crack of the door, did he really realize that the love he was not sure of, is his love. The concern of his life is also complete because of Delin. Yongyuan found out where Delin currently works through inquiries. He has been unable to face Delin, it will be another injury to Delin. Yongyuan's life is about to die, so he can't promise anything to Delin, just like that date, how could he not catch up with Delin, Delin's life is the most vibrant, and his life is already left. Not much more.
Yongyuan was sitting in the cafe, and Delin was working not far away. Delin's smile was still so bright, as if nothing had happened. Young-won puts his hand on the glass window, the only way he can touch his lover's face.
The letter to Delin was never sent, and Yong-won put the letter in the box. In the box there are still pictures of Delin, pictures of first love Zhi Yong, and many letters, all of which are things to be treasured. He took out the album and looked through the photos from childhood to adulthood. Although life cannot stay in those moments forever, fortunately, if you have it, you can have good memories.
Yongyuan sat on the chair, tidying up his clothes, this time, he was going to take the last image of his life.
The last thing Yongyuan left to his life was his smile.
Life goes on, and Young-won's father takes over the photo studio. Before his death, Yongyuan had used a camera to record the steps of using the electronic products in the store one by one. Dad should have been familiar with the use of electronic products that he used to "frighten" very quickly. He closed the store, took a camera, and rode the red motorcycle that Yong Won once used to take pictures of others on a winter day.
After a while, Dereen came over, wearing a black trench coat and black boots, she looked more mature. She looked at the photo studio where she had once placed her love and loss full of love and loss, and found the photo Yongyuan took for her in the window. Delin showed the same smile as before. Then, turned around and walked away.
At this time, Yongyuan's monologue was played in the movie "I know very well that the feeling of love will fade, just like the old photos, but you will always stay in my heart, forever beautiful, until the last moment of my life. Thank you, goodbye. "This is an unsent letter from Yong Won to Delin. Delin eventually became the most precious concern of Yongyuan's life.
