"He Tianran, why do you want to learn to fly?"
Above the clouds, Wen Liang, who had adapted to the high-altitude environment, retracted his gaze from looking down at the earth. His initially excited mood gradually returned to calm. Feeling something in his heart, he asked the man next to him this question.
"Why? It's out of interest. Just like you like motorcycles, most likely it's also out of love for the excitement and enjoyment that chasing speed brings. As for me, it's because of my senior year..."
"What happened to your senior year?"
He Tianran stopped talking and Wen Liang asked. It was probably because of A Liu's presence that he hesitated a little, but he thought it wouldn't hurt to say it, so he said:
"I was about to graduate that year and was very confused about the future. At that time, my father wanted to arrange for me to work as an intern at an investment bank for a few years and then return to Shanhai to take over his class. In fact, I didn't have any objections or objections to this. Resistance, because this is an opportunity that many people dream of, but if you ask me to say how much I like this career... I don't.
In fact, people like us, well, most people, especially boys, were full of awe, even a little shadowy, towards the word 'father' when they were young, because my father was in the business field. It was very successful, so I had a lot more pressure and awareness in this area since I was a child. For the first twenty years of my life, I always followed his arrangements.
But I know that no matter how much I work in his field, I may not be able to surpass him in my lifetime. This was the factor that caused me to be confused at that time, and it was also the thing that made me most anxious when I was about to graduate from college..."
Wanting to answer this question directly seemed to involve some complicated factors in He Tianran's heart. He silently changed the flight path of the helicopter. During this period, no one interrupted the man's thoughts. He only heard him continue:
"Some people may say that as a rich second generation, you can live your whole life without worrying about food and clothing, and just enjoy yourself with peace of mind. Why do you think so much? But after all, I am a human being. As a human being, I will have emotions and think.
I always want to do something different from my dad, achieve something, and prove myself. For example, my dad likes sailing, and I chose to learn to fly. There must be a desire to fight against patriarchy. A kind of meaning..."
A Liu, who was in the back seat, listened to what he was saying and interrupted in the middle to ask:
"Is this a... patricide complex?"
He Tianran was nodded like this and looked back in surprise, then turned back and agreed:
"Yes! Teacher A Liu, you summarized it very accurately.
The patricide complex is a very important theme in literature, religion and psychology, whether it is the tragedy of Oedipus, the entire Greek mythology, or Spider-Man's uncle or Superman's adoptive father. , even movies, TV series, and now you write some cool routines on the Internet. Even if everyone does not realize this, the things that you and I reflected when we were growing up all express this complex subconsciously. universality.
A boy was fearful and dependent on his father when he was a child. When he grew up, he began to resist the patriarchy and began to rebel. After becoming independent, he went on the road of spiritual patricide, wanting to surpass or replace him, until... he really Becoming a father is like reincarnation and a heroic path of growth, isn't it?
In a nutshell, this complex means that everyone has a heartfelt desire to resist authority and become an authority.
It's just that some people succeed, and some people fail in the middle. Although everyone's original family is different, their desires are different, and their thoughts and morals are also different, but at this point, it means that different paths lead to the same goal.
For me, whether it is flying or directing, aside from my love for these things, in some respects, I want to surpass my father mentally or in some technical fields. , even though my starting point was set by my father, in the process, the success and results I achieved were achieved by my own abilities, which gave me a great sense of accomplishment.
I like to enjoy the fun of flying at high altitudes, thereby getting rid of a kind of restraint; when I am on the set, I control the fate of the characters in the light and shadow, and gain a kind of rights similar to father's power, which makes me feel a sense of responsibility in my heart. This kind of strength gave me the motivation to take control of my life.
I think this is the complete answer to Wen Liang’s question about why I want to learn to fly. "
The more He Tianran spoke, the more excited he became, but he remained calm on the surface. This casual question and reminder made him seem to have captured some inspiration for his script.
Neither of the two girls expected that a simple question of hobbies would be analyzed so thoroughly by He Tianran. While people got to know him, they were also impressed by his ability to express himself, his knowledge, and his sincere attitude and defiant spirit. Out of admiration.
After the Vlog was released, He Tianran's words aroused some thoughts and discussions among netizens.
…
"I can't quite relate to a rich second generation. Whether they are consuming entertainment or discussing art, I don't have such material conditions, and I don't care about so-called artistic creation. I live with them. It’s a world of difference. I watched this video just for fun, but after seeing this, some of my impressions of He Tianran have indeed changed a lot, because as a son who has a bad relationship with his father, a man who is about to return home immediately A man who refused to return to his hometown and still worked outside the home, he said something that I had always wanted to say in my heart but could not express a certain emotion."
"Many second-generation celebrities and rich second-generation people have actually lived in the shadow of their parents for a long time, but most of them have not inherited the talents of their parents. It seems that they are destined to do whatever they want as soon as they are born, so in this society with a magnifying glass Under this circumstance, the glory of their fathers illuminated some of their bad qualities until they were completely invisible.
Director He can find his own field, whether it is flying or being a director. Success is not guaranteed by having money. He has his own talents. I admire those who shine in the fields they love. And I also admire He Tianran's courage to resist and take a completely different path from his father's generation. "
"Lu Bu: You are a man!"
"Looking at He Tianran's conversation and behavior, I feel that he is really a well-educated person. It is difficult to find the disgusting arrogance of public figures or wealthy people in him. I noticed that he was underground a while ago. When Tie sings, he gives the impression that he is a refreshing big boy, and it is difficult for people to dislike him."
"I feel from the bottom of my heart that He Tianran will definitely be successful in the field he is good at in the future. Maybe it will take twenty years? Ten years? Or maybe even earlier. This is the premonition in my heart when I look at this person."
"Okay! People with connotations speak differently. If someone asked me why I like something, I would probably just say: This thing is so cool, YYDS is so cool. Damn it, how could anyone not like it? Something like that...I really can’t explain such a deep and convincing reason, he is worthy of being a director.”
"The thinking is clear and the logic is clear. People who don't have any ink in their stomachs for self-analysis may not be able to say it casually. I have never seen the things he shot. I won't talk about whether he is talented or not, but this paragraph alone, I can only say that He Tianran is really a well-educated, thoughtful person who knows how to introspect and can take action."
…
"You must love yourself very much now."
Just the next second when netizens started commenting one after another, Wen Liang, who had been silently listening to He Tianran's thoughts, said this softly.
These words penetrated He Tianran's ears, and a strange, warm emotion suddenly exploded in his heart, spreading to his limbs and bones. The man suddenly looked sideways at the cheerful woman beside him, and stared at it for three seconds.
This feeling was given to me by another girl in this world.
He once thought that she would be the only one...
"……Um."
He Tianran, who had been eloquent just now, only responded lightly when faced with this sentence, as if the two of them had the same mind at this moment and did not need to elaborate in too many words.
"I'm so happy for you."
"Thanks……"
Little did the man know that Wen Liang's eyes were full of relief when she looked at him. Once upon a time, the Xiao A who didn't love himself enough, the Xiao A who said "I can do anything", the Xiao A who said "do I look like an adult?" , and finally reborn and found the direction of life.
Maybe it would be a good thing for He Tianran to forget some of the confusions in the past?
Such a thought arose in Wen Liang's heart. She thought about it carefully and said nothing.
"..."
The cabin became somewhat silent, and there was a constant buzzing of wind outside the cabin. At this time, A Liu asked out of curiosity:
"The scenery in the sky is nice, but Director He, you didn't turn the world upside down. Could it be that you want to turn the helicopter upside down and fly it later? You... let me know before you do it. I'll do it first. Be mentally prepared.”
The other party's tone of fear and expectation made He Tianran burst into laughter.
"I don't have the guts to do such a difficult operation yet. Don't panic. You will be excited later."
…
…
The blue sky is clear and white clouds roam.
Moyo flew in the sky for another ten minutes before the helicopter slowly descended and stopped at a flight base thirty kilometers north of the port city.
The base is very large, with a two-kilometer runway on the square and more than twenty helicopter parking spots. When the rotors gradually stopped and the fuselage stabilized, the two girls were still unfinished. Not far away, they could see the work in the base. The personnel were walking towards this side, but there were still several planes circling in the sky.
He Tianran took off his sunglasses and hung them on his collar, explaining:
"This is the flight base of the previous general aviation company. This is where I learned to fly. Moreover, before the New Muse mall opened, my big baby has been parked here. Later, the mall opened, leaving Zhuguang. The alley is also close, and the city tour happens to be the route reported by their company every day, so I flew there and flew there after work. It was very comfortable."
Wen Liang asked: "In that case, we shouldn't be the girls you picked up for the first time, right? Director He?"
He Tianran smiled and said nothing.
In fact, many employees of "Future Production" and some colleagues in Zhuguang Lane have taken He Tianran's flight. He has taken care of Yao Qingtao and several girls from the company. Bai Lingye has been clamoring to come and give it a try, but she is very busy at work. I was busy, and I made several appointments but none came through. As for Cao Aiqing...
Opening the door, the three people got off the plane.
Six hundred hours of flight time was enough for He Tianran to establish a good relationship with all the flight instructors in this base. Several instructors wearing flight jackets and wearing base armbands saw He Tianran getting off the helicopter and approached and chatted. Tianlai said:
"Hey, isn't this our Coach He? Is your company still doing flight team building this year?"
"No, this year's plan is to send those guys to Tokyo. Last year, the skydiving scared some little girls so much that their shadows came out. If I beat them to death, they wouldn't come again."
One of the staff handed over a document, which was the helicopter's parking terms, and had to be signed once for takeoff and landing.
He Tianran took it and signed it, and one of them smiled and said:
"That's really a pity, but our Coach He is really good at providing employee benefits. It makes me want to switch jobs to your company. Hey, Coach He, do you think you need a driver or something?"
He Tianran slapped the signed document on the man's chest and pointed back at his Robinson R44:
"This? I want to touch it every day, how can I let outsiders get involved?"
The man made a gesture to control the steering wheel:
"No, I mean the four-wheeled one! I'm also very good at driving! The operating time is calculated in years!"
"Isn't that overkill?"
Everyone laughed, and Wen Liang asked He Tianran quietly:
"Why do they call you coach, and you teach people to fly airplanes?"
"No, no, no, I don't have this qualification, but I can indeed teach people another kind of aerial event."
After He Tianran denied it, he added, and a teacher continued:
"Coach He can teach people to skydive. He learned flying and skydiving together with us. He passed almost all the certificates our organization can issue. Last year, their company came to our team building team and was rewarded. It turned out to be an opportunity for the best employee to tandem skydive with him, and the scene made us laugh to death."
"Really? Who is it? Sister Taozi?"
Wen Liang asked three times in succession.
He Tianran shook his head: "No, the best employee of our company last year was indeed Yao Qingtao, but this girl didn't believe me at the time and chose another coach to dance with her, so I took Yu Hui to dance with her. "
Having said that, today's ultimate goal was finally revealed. He said to Wen Liang and A Liu:
"How about, do you want to experience parachuting from the sky, with the wind whistling in your ears, and when your body is vertically downward due to gravity, you can see an 'upside-down' scene? Let's agree in advance, this is the same as flying in an airplane Feeling flying is two different things.”
"If you take me to dance with you, I will dance!"
Compared to A Liu's hesitation, Wen Liang answered simply and neatly.
"oh--!!"
A group of flight instructors watching the show burst into laughter. A Liu seemed to be inspired by this decisiveness and agreed on the spot.
He Tianran discussed with several instructors about skydiving later. The clear environment today was good. The other person asked where he wanted to jump to in the end. Several skydiving areas at the flight base were fixed. He Tianran said it was still the same place. The beach at Zhaoxia Road Seaside Paradise.
After everything was done, several teachers took A Liu and Wen Liang to fill in their personal information, told them some precautions, and then gave them clothes.
In the hangar, the familiar He Tianran was checking the boarding parachute bag.
Someone patted his shoulder behind him, and when he turned around, it was Wen Liang who had put on a black umbrella suit.
The girl's exquisite figure was wrapped in tight clothes, making her curves graceful and sexy.
"Coach He, shouldn't you also teach me some postures I should maintain when weightless in the air?"
She pointed at A Liu who was learning moves from another coach not far away. He Tianran packed up the umbrella bag at hand, clapped his hands and said:
"Later, the main thing you need to remember is not to move around, and keep your body as free as possible. Most of your movements in the air should be like this with your legs hooked up and your hands open..."
As He Tianran spoke, he didn't mind the looks of others, and just lay on the ground and demonstrated the standard moves. Seeing his slightly funny look, the girl couldn't help but smile.
"Don't laugh, this is very important! Get down and learn from me!"
"……oh!"
He Tianran taught for a while, and Wen Liang learned quickly. A Liu will also be skydiving later, so it is naturally impossible to help them film this interesting scene. However, a third-party camera from the flight base will accompany and record the skydiving process. After coming down, He Tianran will also install a sports camera on his hand to record the expressions of the two people.
These equipment and aerial photographers are provided by the flight base, and this kind of documentary photography can be regarded as one of their money-making projects. After all, few people want to miss the wonderful moments when they are either calm and elegant while skydiving at high altitude, or they lose their voice and become embarrassed.
"He Tianran..."
"Um?"
Everyone in the hangar was preparing for their own affairs. While no one was paying attention, Wen Liang, who was lying on the ground, looked at He Tianran, who was still demonstrating the movements seriously. The girl's originally open hands closed unconsciously. Supporting his chin, he raised his legs and swayed up and down inadvertently.
She said happily: "Thank you for everything you arranged for me today because of my words."
He Tianran glanced sideways at her, looking helpless when he saw the girl's playful look after she relaxed her movements.
"There's nothing to thank you for. It's just your request, which happens to coincide with my hobbies."
"But your hobbies have brought me a big surprise~! I just like these!"
He Tianran smiled bitterly to himself. When he saw that the other party stopped following him, he relaxed. He turned over and sat on the ground, took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it, raised his head and blew out a cloud of smoke.
He looked at Wen Liang for a second, then turned his head and stared at the smoke until it dissipated, but stopped talking.
"What do you want to say?"
Seeing the man's hesitation, Wen Liang asked.
"Wen Liang, you...have nothing to be afraid of?"
"Yes, for example..."
Their eyes met.
"I'm afraid of death."
"Then you are still willing to try such a dangerous thing, and it even became a surprise for you."
"Hahaha, because I know you are not the kind of person who has short ambitions and a short life. I am safe with you. Besides, if something happens, dying with the person I like would be a... nice ending. ! Even though I don’t want to die young so soon.”
"It's unlucky to say that before takeoff."
"Bah, bah, hey~"
"..."
The man was speechless for a moment.
"He Tianran~"
"Um?"
"You learned to fly or skydive. Did anyone stop you and tell you that these sports are dangerous?"
"Yes, I have."
"Is it your parents and relatives? Or a friend around you? Or... is it the person you like?"
"..."
He Tianran did not give an answer.
"Don't be afraid. I support you in doing things that go beyond your past self. This in itself is a challenge to yourself and your destiny. I think these are very meaningful. I am very happy that you have allowed me to see more of you today. This It’s also the biggest surprise I received today!”
Wen Liang's expression was uplifted, and her autumn-like eyes were sparkling.
Is this...a recognition?
He Tianran didn't know, but this positive and understanding attitude reminded him of another girl in his life...
Cao Aiqing.
These two girls are so extreme, and their attitudes towards themselves flying in the sky are completely different.
"Come on, you can fly higher!"
"You must land immediately, you are almost past the critical point!"
It is conceivable that this is what the two girls would say to themselves.
One urges me to forge ahead, and the other keeps me safe.
There is no doubt that if it has nothing to do with love, no matter what kind it is, they are the two most precious people in life.
"natural……"
"Um?"
"Do you think we experienced life and death together during this skydiving?"
"Please, if you're afraid..."
“It doesn’t count, it doesn’t count, it doesn’t count, it doesn’t count—”
"Think about it..."
He Tianran was very annoyed by her and was probably about to skydive, which made the girl a little nervous.
Wen Liang's cheeks were slightly red, and her swinging legs stopped, and she hesitated:
"Then...if we land safely...can you...call me 'A-Liang' from now on? You have always called me by my full name. Now we have experienced life and death together, so we seem closer..."
"..."
One second, two seconds...
He Tianran's silence made Wen Liang, who was originally happy and shy, feel his heart gradually sink.
"Even...even if you don't scream, it doesn't matter..."
She whispered, her voice getting smaller and smaller...
He Tianran pinched off the cigarette butt in his hand, stood up, patted the ashes on his butt, looked down at the girl lying on the ground with her head hanging down, and sighed.
"Get up... Ah Liang, the plane is about to leave."
The girl who was originally frustrated suddenly raised her head and looked at the man who looked helpless to her. She stood up from the ground, her heart was filled with excitement, and she said noisily like a sparrow:
"Ah~! Why are you screaming now? I mean after we land safely..."
"Okay, okay, it's just a parachute jump. It's very safe. According to what you said, I will have to scream sooner or later."
"But this isn't romantic anymore~!"
"You idiot, Romance. This is such a crappy flag. You act like something is going to happen to us and we go through life and death. Do you really think we are filming an idol drama? If you are scared, just say so and don't make the atmosphere so tense, okay?"
"Oh my, my, isn't this a bit of a feeling of anticipation..."
"Okay, okay, then I won't scream."
"Oh, don't~! Don't~!"
Somewhere in time: at a certain moment. Coincidentally, it is also the English name of the song "My Love Is Missing".
