Growth story

Lin Chenyang is from Lingshi, Shanxi Province. His parents are ordinary primary school teachers. When he was in junior high school, he went to Taigu, where the conditions are better. Maybe it's because of leaving home too early. Loneliness has been growing since then.
In the four years of high school (one year of Rereading), the biggest harvest is to catch up with the best female students in the class with 600 love letters. The first mock exam was that Changsha University of Science and Technology, the twenty-fourth County in the county, was totally surprised, because he was more than 70 in the whole class. He is the kind of lazy and intelligent student, usually tired of learning, but a little effort will be a blockbuster.
I saw a lot of movies before making movies, especially Hollywood blockbusters. I was numb when I saw them. But what really touched the heart and sprouted a director addiction idea was all the films that Jia Zhangke tuned.
Lin Chenyang wants to express all the familiar, green, confused and decadent feelings in his inner world through movies. "I admit I'm narcissistic," Lin Chenyang said of himself. The narcissism around him is also in line with the characteristics of his peers. All the actors in Lin Chenyang's film didn't get any money, but everyone was very happy. Migrant workers, prostitutes, clients, swindlers, homosexuals These characters, who are far away from our lives and close to each other, are portrayed and interpreted by the contemporary college students around 90.
There is also disdain behind the applause. When asked what to do if this kind of emotional catharsis is not accepted or denied, Lin Chenyang said: "I don't have to consider the box office. Why do I care whether others accept it or not. I'm not afraid of being denied. I'm just afraid of being totally denied. I'm afraid that no one agrees with me, but in fact some people agree with me. Some people say that the director is a lonely dictator, and I'm ready for that. "
Lin Chenyang is eager to be a free and successful director, but his ideal is still floating in the air. If he wants to climb up, he has to find a ladder. Where is the ladder? To get a graduate student in the director department of Beijing Film Academy may be a channel, or to make movies with a film crew, or to make some money in an advertising company. If it's really not possible, I'll go to the TV station for an internship. "In a word, don't ask me about the ideal, because the ideal is very realistic and the reality is cruel."
