Chapter 2 origin

In 2012, on the plane back to Beijing from Cannes, I wrote an article, and later posted it on Weibo, which aroused some reactions.Some reporters told me that such an article is worth 10 publicity drafts.The title of the article was "Big Brother".

A few days after the article was published, Sister Yuan, a staff member of Big Brother, showed him the article. After reading it, he sent someone to call my company and invited me to go to Myanmar and Thailand with him and the team to do charity. During this process, I helped him write something (later there was the article "The World Will Never Be Desolate").

The big brother's invitation came as a pleasant surprise to me.At that time, I was still working at Huayi Brothers. The boss Wang Zhonglei was a good friend with my eldest brother, so I readily agreed.This journey made me start to really get close to them.The eldest brother works in a very different way. As he said, the people in the team are his family members. Except for sleeping, he hangs out with everyone, discusses work, eats, drinks coffee, and chats with everyone.He has friends all over the world, and wherever he goes, a group of people hang out together. As long as he is interested in the process, he will tell some stories. The experience of going through the rivers and lakes for decades, there are legends, thrills, and laughter , I was moved, and we were dumbfounded.Coupled with his professional habits as an actor, many times everyone listens to the story and watches the performance, which is simply a super enjoyment.While enjoying it, I thought, so many wonderful stories should be written and shared with everyone.

At the beginning of 2013, I came up with the idea of ​​studying abroad.On the one hand, I have been working continuously for 7 years, and I am exhausted and urgently need to recharge. On the other hand, I am approaching 30 years old and want to live a different life. Why not consider studying abroad as a gift to myself. After the Spring Festival, my eldest brother took the entire "Zodiac" crew to Southeast Asia for vacation, and invited me to join him.On the first day I arrived in Singapore, my eldest brother called me to his side and handed me a Chinese New Year red envelope full of the word "Dragon", with a wad of US dollars inside.I was overjoyed, and I told my elder brother that I wanted to discuss two things with you.

"I want to study abroad..." Before the words finished, the elder brother said, "Do you want me to write a recommendation letter for you?" I was flattered.In fact, I just wanted to discuss with him and asked him to write a recommendation letter for me. Unexpectedly, he proposed it before I even asked.I said again: "I want to write down those little stories of yours, and make it into a book if possible." The elder brother said: "You can try it." In less than five minutes, two things were finalized.This is the work efficiency of my eldest brother, and of course I also want to thank him for his trust in me.In the next few months, I was learning English and preparing for the IELTS test. At the same time, I sorted out the story materials accumulated in the past. When my elder brother was in Beijing, I followed him like a follower, listening to his stories and asking him questions. , record at any time.
