This is a steel forest like a can

Ever since I watched "Evil East and West Poison", I knew that I was fascinated by Wong Kar-wai's confession that I lost my soul, but since I watched "Chongqing Forest", I knew I was stuck in this kind of lingering lingering like a dream Loneliness.

This is a forest, and a group of lonely people live in a lonely forest.

A

"do not know when to begin, in what above has a date, will expire saury, canned meat will be expired, even the plastic wrap will be expired, I began to wonder, in this world, there is nothing that will not Expired?”

It’s really hard for me to find anything that doesn’t expire. Will the relationship expire?

Still lonely, Wu's relationship expired. May likes pineapples, so A Wu has bought a can of pineapples that expires on May 1 every day since the day of the breakup. Because it was his birthday, he told himself that their relationship would expire before May 1st.

Every time I see Wu go to a convenience store to buy canned pineapples, I feel that sometimes I am just like him-trying to divert my attention in another way, or to deceive myself in another way.

I don't know what it's like to eat 30 cans of canned pineapple at once, because I haven't tried it. But I know the feeling of being broken in love, I think it is the same as eating 30 cans of pineapple at a time, right? Because when you are broken in love, your stomach and belly are as uncomfortable as if you have eaten 30 cans of pineapple.

"I don't know when it started. I became a very careful person. Every time I wear a raincoat, I wear sunglasses. You never know when it will rain and when the sun will appear."

Lin Qingxia wore With a raincoat and sunglasses, I thought this was May when I walked over the aisle. But in fact, this cautious woman is even more lonely than Wu.

When Ah Wu first saw this woman in a raincoat and sunglasses, he said, "There are only three reasons why a woman wears sunglasses so late. The first one means that she is blind; the second one means that she is blind. She is playing handsome, so she wears sunglasses; the third one is because she is broken in love, because she doesn't want people to see that she has cried."

It's a pity that he guessed wrong, Brigitte Lin's sunglasses are to conceal her inner loneliness, deep loneliness. When a person is accustomed to loneliness, he always becomes cautious and afraid of harm. So he tried to hide his loneliness. Because this loneliness is fatal.

In a room in a building, a lonely woman, wearing a raincoat and sunglasses, fell asleep soundly. A lonely man, watched two Cantonese feature films, ate chef's salad four times, and left early in the morning. In the whole room, there is no such ambiguous atmosphere, it can't be simpler, but the smell in the room is clearly lonely. A kind of loneliness with emptiness. Maybe these two lonely people mistakenly thought: As long as two lonely people are together, they won't be so lonely.

But the result proved: two lonely people together, the end is double loneliness.

"Everyone has a time when they are broken in love, and every time I am broken in love, I will go running, because running can evaporate the water in your body, and it makes me not so easy to cry."

Wu left the building and went to the playground to run. . The empty playground is like the empty heart of Awu. Wu did not shed tears, because all his tears evaporated.

Then his call machine rang.

"368 Replay"
"Please tell
me the password" "Love you for ten thousand years"

Awu has always wrongly thought that he can keep his love for ten thousand years. He has repeated these words countless times. But at this moment, it seems that the usual cold voice of the operator has a warm feeling: "Your friend in room 702 said happy birthday to you."

A lonely woman in a raincoat and sunglasses said to a lonely man who had an empty heart and was experiencing a broken-up relationship: "Happy birthday", it's just that simple. It makes people envious. Because both are the same lonely, the world is the same lonely. If memory is a canned food, none of us know whether this canned food will expire? But we all hope that this can will never expire.

Someone once commented: "We passed by for the sake of acquaintance or forgetting." I agree with this sentence, especially when I heard this sentence in "Chongqing Forest":

"When I was closest to her, the distance between us was only 0.01 cm. I didn't know anything about her. After six hours, she liked another man." The

city ​​is a forest of steel, and we are all in the forest. Look for your own tree. Before we find it, we are all the same lonely, but after we find it, this loneliness may not disappear forever.

With a "California Dream" as the background music, Faye Wong shook her body in the singing, and Tony Leung walked over from a distance. The dark night is so fascinating, because it allows the exhausted Liang Chaowei and Faye Wong who don't want to think too much to meet.

Is it really possible to listen to louder music without thinking about things? I haven't tried it, but I sleep when I don't want to think about things too much. If I think about a very sad thing, then I think I will be sad no matter what music I listen to, because music will only power what I think. So, many times, I dare not listen to music.

"There are so many choices for supper, let alone a boyfriend? A good chef's salad, what fish and chips should I change?"

Liang Chaowei said this frustratedly. Because his girlfriend is gone. In fact, in many cases, too many choices are not necessarily a good thing. Too many choices mean too much hesitation. When we hesitate, we often lose the opportunity to choose. We have no way to accurately measure acquaintance or forgetting.

The owner of the nightclub persuaded Liang Chaowei: “Then don’t wait. She chooses her, you choose yours. Drinking black coffee every day is not an option.” Back Jing Music is still the song "California Dream". Faye Wong was mopping the floor while nodding. I don’t know if she was playing to the beat of the music or agreeing with the late night club owner... The

late night club owner and employees left with excuses one after another, and only Faye Wong was left, she Turn the record player's voice to maximum and shake your body with the music. After Liang Chaowei returned home, he would talk to himself on the soaps, towels and rag dolls at home. They are all people who can enjoy loneliness, but when loneliness reaches the depths, no matter how much enjoyment, it can’t make up for that heart. The blankness and the loneliness deep into the soul.

Liang Chaowei's girlfriend left a letter for the owner of the nightclub to pass it on to Liang Chaowei. After being circulated in the store, it came to Faye Wong's hands. Faye Wong finally understood Liang Chaowei's feelings. The letter contained the key to Liang Chaowei's house, so she began to sneak into Liang Chaowei's home...

Since having the key, Faye Wong began to play in his house, clean the house, and change his life. Only when loneliness is reached or will it be pursued in such a way.

"I don't know if I forgot to turn off the faucet when I went to work, or the house is becoming more and more emotional. I always thought it was strong, who knew it would cry so hard. If a person is crying, you only need to give him a pack. Paper towels, but a house is crying, you have to do a lot of work."

One day, after Liang Chaowei came home suddenly, he looked at the standing water all over the floor and said. Will the house have feelings? I think if a house has feelings, then it is not called a house, but a "home". Therefore, "home" is probably a house with feelings. Maybe Liang Chaowei has already felt the "feelings" of Faye Wong. Because the whole house is diffused, it is all the smell of Faye Wong.

"The girl fell asleep at my house that afternoon. I wanted to wake her up, but I don't know why I didn't do it."

Later, they finally "knocked" together in Liang Chaowei's house, and Faye Wong fell asleep in panic. Now, that afternoon, the sun was very warm, perhaps just as the hearts of the two of them-"hit" together, yet so warm.

There is such a detail: every time Faye Wong plays, she wears different clothes. Perhaps the lonely person will always try to divert her attention so that she can become dazzling and bright. But Liang Chaowei is different. He always shows up in that uniform every time he shows up. He didn't change his clothes until he wanted to make an appointment with Faye Wong, but he didn't succeed in changing his clothes for the first time.

"In fact, she just went to the wrong place. That night, we both went to California, but there was a 15-hour time difference. It's 11 o'clock in the morning in California, and it's 8 o'clock in the evening. I wonder if she will remember having an appointment with me. "

Sometimes, it's that simple to miss. Faye Wong did not come, leaving only a letter she thought Tony Leung would never open, and then fled. However, on that rainy night, Liang opened the letter-it was a boarding pass.

Until a year later, when Faye Wong came back to the nightclub from California, there seemed to be no changes, even the music-still the song "California Dream", but the boss was replaced by Chaowei Liang, this time Liang was replaced for the second time. Casual wear, but he succeeded. Faye Wong painted him another boarding pass. It's finally time for them to laugh, relieved, yet so let the flow go.

And these, for them, are just the beginning...

In such a steel forest, more often we are ourselves accompanying our loneliness, but sometimes, such casual brushing is enough to make us The acquaintance or forgetting becomes eternal. If this is also a "canned food", then I think such a "canned food" should never expire...
