The live broadcast of the First Film Festival became very popular at this time, and a Weibo post asking where to watch the live broadcast even became a hot topic.
In the circle of friends, many people refreshed their posts and found that their friends were all recommending a song.
The sound source comes from the screen recording of the live broadcast room. The sound quality is very poor, and the duration is only fifty seconds, so it is incomplete.
However, many people still had tears in their eyes after watching this video.
"Xiao Zhou, do you have any dreams?"
Outside a convenience store, two men squatted in the doorway. Inside the window, oden bubbling and steam filling the air. A couple slid their hands into each other's gloves, their noses red from the cold, but their smiles were warm.
Just like the advertisement of this convenience store: Here, this is your home.
Every time Zhou Yiyang came to this restaurant to pick up takeout, he watched this gentle advertisement and felt no warmth, only the feeling of being stabbed by a blunt knife with embroidery on his heart. It didn't hurt, but it itched.
"Brother Liu," Zhou Yiyang said, holding a disposable cup of boiled water that a kind shop assistant had given him. The heat melted the ice crystals in his hair, and they dripped onto the ground. "People like us, how can we have dreams?"
Brother Liu is 33 years old this year, but he is the highest-earning delivery man in their area.
If you ask him the secret of his success, it is to risk his life.
He will not stop working no matter it is snowing, raining or typhooning.
Because of the bad weather, there is an extra bonus for each order.
"I've saved over 100,000 yuan," Brother Liu said, his eyes as gentle as a pregnant mother's every mention of money. "If something happens to me one day, I'll give all this money to my son. I don't know if this is enough for him to find a wife."
Zhou Yiyang envies Brother Liu.
He earns more than me, and most importantly, he still has a family.
Unlike himself, there was only one rental house that did not belong to him.
"What about you, Brother Liu? What is your dream?"
"As for me," Brother Liu raised his head and pointed at the sky, which was starless. "I just want to save enough money so I can open my own shop. I don't have to risk my life to make money like I do now."
Zhou Yiyang didn't know why, but when he stood under the stage and saw the four of them singing the song with all their might, he started thinking about the past.
At that time, he really didn't dare to dream, the word was too far away for him.
What he pursues is food and clothing.
Zhou Yiyang is undoubtedly lucky to have come to this world and obtained the system.
After he had the system, he never forgot to learn.
He read a lot of books, including those on music theory, creative guidance, and directing.
At first, I was worried about being exposed, but later I did it for a sense of security.
People with his background always considered the worst-case scenario. If the system disappeared one day, would he fall from grace?
Fortunately, he did well, and his short films, without any systemic help, were still successful.
This is why he was moved. Many times your efforts will not yield immediate results, but one day, it will bloom into a flower for you.
Zhou Yiyang glanced at the audience and saw that the new directors were almost crying.
Several now famous actors also had red eyes from crying, and Zhou Yiyang knew them all.
These actors all started out as extras or supporting roles. They acted for more than ten years and only became famous after they got a role.
No one knows how many leading actors laughed at and looked down upon them during their days as supporting actors.
I don’t know how many times they have thought about leaving here, no longer being “passersby”, and returning to their hometown.
But they still gritted their teeth and persevered.
Guan Fei wiped her tears with a tissue while looking at the barrage.
She felt like she was reading a collection of inspirational stories, but each one moved her deeply.
She knows that even though today's society loves to promote negative energy, sell anxiety, and advocate for having no desires, there are still a group of people who have not forgotten their dreams.
She used to think the comments were just childish, but now she feels so sad. It's so embarrassing.
[Today is July 27th. My name is Gao Zhifan, and I'm a senior in high school. Next June, I want to be admitted to a key university!]
[Today is July 27th. My name is Du Jinfu, and I'm 38. I'm currently a small shop owner, and my dream is to become a singer. I've written over a hundred songs, and I plan to submit them all to Yiyang Entertainment!]
[Today... My name is... I'm an ordinary courier. My dream is to save up 100,000 yuan by the end of the year so I can go back home and marry Sasha.]
When the song ended, the applause continued for a long time until Zhou Yiyang walked onto the stage.
"Thank you, Moonlight Girl. It's a great song. The original author must be very talented. Oh, what a coincidence, I wrote it."
Zhou Yiyang's joke made everyone burst into laughter.
"I believe that after listening to the lyrics, everyone should already know the meaning of this song. The reason why I chose it as the opening song is because the original intention of our First Film Festival is to discover the new forces of Chinese films.
We are gathered here today because we share the same dream. Give yourselves a round of applause, dream chasers!
Friends watching the livestream, remember our third key word? That's right: no limits. I want to tell you that no matter what industry you're in or how old you are, it's never too late to pursue your dreams! I hope you enjoyed the performance and enjoyed our First Film Festival.
This song is also the promotional song for our First Film Festival, and the subsequent studio version will also be available to everyone for free.
