The name Li Jian is not well known, but Li Xuejian's name is a household name.
Li Xuejian's son is Li Gan, who has a low-key personality.
Many children of celebrities in the entertainment industry use their parents' reputation as an excuse to start their own careers to make money.
Li Gen can be said to be one of the few people who has achieved success with his own efforts.
He relied on his own efforts to learn Xi directing knowledge, made movies and was even nominated for the Golden Rooster Award, rather than relying on his father's resources.
In 1987, Beijinger Li Gen was born.
When I was younger, I used to live with my dad on a film crew, and it was a place full of all kinds of people, and it was inevitable that there would be some bad guys.
In the crew, Li Gen once got lost and came back after going to the toilet.
Li Xuejian's father mysteriously disappeared after filming, making people think that he might have been kidnapped, and almost called the police.
's mother became more and more worried about Li Gan's safety in the crew, once she learned about the situation.
Children can't resist the bad guys at all, after all, they face the power of adults.
Although Li Gen was fully protected by his father, in order to avoid his mother's worries, he reduced the frequency of his visits to the crew.
When his father was working in the crew, Li Gen had nothing to do, so he walked to the camera to shoot the effect.
Occasionally, he will be intimate with the director, and even be held in his arms by the director to guide the performance.
Because of his childhood growth environment, Li Gen had a desire to make movies deep in his heart.
Li Gengang celebrated his 13th birthday in 2001, when his father Li Xuejian could not be found at home for a long time.
Mother, Li Gen asked his father if he was in **
His mother only said to him, "You have to study well at school Xi my father will come back soon after a business trip." ”
Li was skeptical at first.
He later discovered that his mother always went out at certain times and would disappear for four or five hours as soon as she did.
Li Gen intuitively felt that his mother must have something to hide.
On the day when her mother went out, Li Gen got through her **.
Li Gen seriously asked his mother in ** where he went
Did something happen to my father?
The mother frowned when she answered **, her nose was a little sour, and she was so speechless for a long time when she was asked.
After repeated questioning, Li Gen learned the news of his father's illness.
When Li Gan learned the news, he immediately rushed to the hospital, and it turned out that his father had been diagnosed with nasopharyngeal cancer a few months ago.
Li Xuejian was lying on the hospital bed at the moment, unable to make any sound in his throat.
He was unable to communicate with his son due to the torture of chemotherapy.
It wasn't until he was questioned by Li Gen that he learned that the purpose of his parents' concealment was to not delay his Xi.
Early every morning, Li Xuejian asked his wife to send him to the hospital for chemotherapy**, and then went to the crew in the afternoon to continue filming.
Li Gan finally realized why his mother had asked him to go to bed early.
For this reason, he feared that his father would be suspicious if he saw his emaciated appearance.
Li Xuejian's body was like a string that was originally tightened, and when the filming of the crew ended, it suddenly broke.
The body deteriorates suddenly, and the process becomes more difficult.
After school, Li Jian would rush to the hospital every day and stay by his father's side.
Li Xuejian's condition is not improving day by day, and time is constantly passing.
His hair gradually fell out, and eventually even his eyebrows were not spared, and the ** on his neck began to show signs of festering.
Xu Xuejian was lying on the bed at the time, and he felt dizzy after moving a little.
In addition to accompanying his father to take care of him, the only thing Li Gen could do was to study hard and Xi and watch his father suffer from illness.
Li Xuejian always comforted Li Gen and told him not to be sad.
The disease struck, like a mountain falling;Gradually, like a thread. On your ** day, I will take you to the crew to start the filming journey.
Li Gen silently wiped his tears, listened to his father's voice, and slowly turned his head.
He had a strong desire to become a director.
He had only one thought in his heart, and that was to let his father suffer less in the cause he loved when he grew up.
After his father's condition improved, Li Gen personally wrote a letter to his father.
Dad, you used to take care of us, and now it's my turn to take care of you.
My mother and I have been with you through the most difficult times, and the road ahead will be brighter, and the end point will be sunny.
Perhaps thanks to the support of his family and the strength given by the letter sent by Li Gan, the follow-up effect received by his father Li Xuejian exceeded expectations.
After a period of time, the father was finally discharged from the hospital.
What is deeply engraved in Li Gen's heart is the time he spent with his father in the hospital.
His father suffered a severe *** from the disease, which caused him to lose his hearing almost completely.
Li Gen once advised his father to take a break and reduce the number of filming, and the family's expenses were completely sufficient.
Despite this, the father insisted on returning to the crew.
Li Gen didn't know much about Li Xuejian's love for acting before, which was beyond his previous understanding.
He learned the true meaning of love from his father's actions.
In 2007, Li was able to travel to Japan as an exchange student.
Before going abroad, his parents prepared many items for him and told him to tell them if he didn't have enough money.
Li Jian believes that he has matured, and most of the family's wealth is the result of his father's hard work.
Li Gen has always cherished the words that his father had said that he would shoulder the family responsibilities with him.
In the years when Li Gen went abroad for an exchange life, he did not ask his family for a penny, and all his living expenses were earned by his own part-time work.
To make time to earn money, he never participated in any activities at school.
Other students took advantage of their exchange trips to Japan to visit Mt. Fuji, enjoy hot spring baths, and even found time to sign up for a tea ceremony class.
Li Gen didn't dare to imagine that he could go to ** to play.
Not only does it take time to invest, but it also costs money.
On weekends, Li Geng spent more than a dozen hours in the shop where he worked.
He sat on the basement floor, staring blankly at his watch when he was bored.
It's fine to be busy for more than ten hours, but time flies so slowly when it's not busy.
Colleagues often prepare almond tofu for him in the store to stop his mouth from counting down the time.
The hardships of part-time work are evocative.
Li Gan's later film "If One Day I Will Leave" was specially filmed in the place where he worked.
In order to allow Li Gen to shoot and film, the owner of the store deliberately closed for 12 days.
The days of exchanging lives will eventually come to an end, and the time of the year seems to have made Li Gen look new.
He deeply felt the hardships and hardships of the people at the bottom, and also experienced the challenges of facing the cold and warm of the world alone.
In 2008, Li returned to China to continue his studies, and did not complete his studies until 2009.
The year after he was successfully admitted to Nortel for graduate school.
During his graduate studies, he recalled and documented his experiences in Japan until six years later when he adapted the story into a screenplay.
Li Gen revealed to his father his desire to become a director and make films.
He had expected his father to think it was a fantasy, after all, he was young and inexperienced at the time.
Li Xuejian expressed unexpected support for Li Gan's idea.
He also suggested that Li Gen go to the crew first to serve as the director's assistant.
In this way, he was able to Xi learn all the work required to make a film through practice.
Years later, Li Gen re-entered the organization and followed his father.
Just like when he was a child, his father always took him with him to take care of him when he was filming.
As a child, Li Geng only knew how to have fun and knew nothing about everything, but now he has dreams and takes care of his family.
After Li Xuejian recovered, his hearing was impaired and he had to rely on more focused attention to devote himself to the role.
In order not to disturb his father's filming progress, Li Gen chose to do some chores in various crews in Hengdian.
He used to try his hand at a variety of jobs, such as moving goods and serving drinks.
Li Gen stubbornly survived the difficult period of working in Japan, and his work in the crew was so comfortable that he did not seem to be affected by the difficulties at all.
Li Gen was busy in the crew, observing the shooting scene and understanding the things that the director needed to deal with.
He always chooses to squat in the corner alone when he is not active.
Li Xuejian and his son Li Gen supported each other.
The film "Yang Shanzhou" directed by his father failed to achieve the desired box office results after its release.
Li Gen took the initiative to go to the cinema to watch the movie, and then he wrote a wonderful film review and sent it to his father.
Li Xuejian looked at his son, and said words of praise with emotion, tears flashing in his eyes.
Three years on, Li Gen has been constantly revising his script.
The film "If One Day I Will Leave" began filming in 2019.
When Li Gen led the team to Japan, the boss recognized him at a glance.
The shopkeeper sighed and looked at the professionals behind Li Gan.
It turns out that it takes so many staff to make a movie!I used to think it would only take a dozen people.
Li Gen smiled lightly, his eyes fell on the familiar scene in front of him, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart how amazing people's emotions are!
Being in the same place can sometimes make you feel tormented and eager to leave, and when you do leave, you miss it deeply.
After Li Gen returned to China, he actually went to Japan again every year to return to the place where he once worked.
When Li Gen was writing the script, he often told those people to wait for him to go to the store to make a movie.
Three years have passed, and who would have thought that this sentence would come true.
It's great that the people in the store are still there.
Before the filming of the movie, Li Gen specially invited the owner of the store and his former colleagues to have dinner and reminisce about the past together.
The world is more felt by delicate people.
At first, Li thought that he could keep his memories forever by making a film.
He thought that the old love for many years had faded away, but he didn't expect that after the filming, Li Gen's feelings for her became even deeper.
He confided in his friends about his situation, who knew that he was delicate and prone to nostalgia.
Reassuring him that "there is no banquet in the world that will never be dissolved" will only make him feel more sad.
After thinking for a moment, my friend replied, "Don't think too much, hurry back to work." Li Yan couldn't help but laugh when he saw this.
Li Gen suddenly realized that at this moment:
I've started a whole new working life and met new partners.
He has put an end to his past and is now ready to start a new life.
He can't always dwell on the past because his friends around him need him.
Li Gan's career is booming day by day.
He used to care very much, and whenever others saw him, they would only say that he was Li Xuejian's son.
Li Gen has been indifferent and has experienced so many things.
As soon as Li Jian saw an old acquaintance, he would spontaneously mention his father.
Perhaps this is because he became more confident after a successful career.
Li Gen continues to receive awards and fame for "If One Day I Will Leave You".
Golden Deer Award, Golden Rooster Award and Temple of Heaven Award.
He was even included in the list of emerging directors of the Movie Channel in April this year.
Through his own efforts, Li Gen successfully got rid of the second-generation star label attached to his body, and finally successfully entered the ranks of well-known directors.
He is young and I believe that he will be able to achieve a lot in the future.
