Return to Singapore 1995

"The murderer must be Catherine. She killed people to seek inspiration for writing. Many clues in the film point directly to her, such as her interactions with various murderers, the white-haired old lady who appeared in her house before the end, and the most direct one is the ice cone at the end of the film...

"I think it might be Nick's old lover in the police station, psychologist Beth. If Catherine's words are used as evidence, the death of the rock singer may be due to Beth's jealousy..."

...

Hearing this, Li Xiaofan, who had just entered the door, was also drunk: "Girls, is it interesting for you to argue like this!"

Guo Hanyue smiled and said: "It's really boring in Singapore. It's not easy for us to have a topic to discuss, but it's not enough!"

"I brought so many discs, can't you change to a new movie to watch!"

"CDs and VCDs in Singapore are too expensive! We finally have a warehouse of ammunition now, we have to enjoy it slowly!" Liu Mengchen added.

"Xiaofan, can you recommend us a warmer movie? I didn't sleep well after watching this movie last night. I kept dreaming about the scene where Catherine raised the ice pick on the bed. I didn't sleep well at all..." Guo Hanyue said.

Li Xiaofan smiled and said, "So you two are still watching it today?"

"Mengchen wanted to watch it, and she insisted on arguing with me!"

"Then tonight, I will recommend you a blockbuster that will win this year's Oscars!"

"What movie?"

"Forrest Gump!"

Liu Mengchen said disdainfully, "Is it a movie from our country? Such a cheesy name..."

"It's an American inspirational blockbuster, okay! Forrest Gump has been nominated for this year's Oscar for Best Picture, and the probability of it being selected in the end is very high! "

When the two girls heard that the film was nominated for the Best Picture at the Oscars, they immediately became interested.

"Forrest Gump" is an inspirational film starring famous American actor Tom Hanks and others. It was released simultaneously in the United States and Singapore in the summer of 1994. The film depicts the inspirational story of Forrest Gump, a small town boy with congenital mental retardation, who worked hard to improve himself and was eventually blessed by God and created miracles in many fields. After the film was released, it won 6 awards including the Oscar for Best Picture, Best Actor, and Best Director in 1995.

In his previous life, this was one of Li Xiaofan's favorite movies. Whenever he was at a low point in his life, he often watched the movie quietly by himself, immersed in it, and encouraged himself to learn from Forrest Gump to arouse his fighting spirit again...

After the movie started, the white feathers in the picture fluttered in the wind under the blue sky. "Forrest Gump Suite" sounded, the beautiful music started from very weak, gradually became clear, and the beautiful melody made Li Xiaofan never tired of listening to it.

This gray feather floated from the distant and unknown sky, floating leisurely over the city, it floated over the roof, over the treetops, through the streets, slowly slid across the surface of the car, and finally gently fell at the feet of Forrest Gump who was sitting on the waiting chair at the bus stop.

Forrest Gump carefully picked up the feather, looked at it for a while, opened the box at hand, took out a notebook, and put the feather in it. The story of the movie began, and Forrest Gump began to tell his own story...

The two girls were quickly attracted by the plot of the movie and were surprisingly quiet.

The ending of the movie At the end of the film, the classic music sounded again.

After sending his son to the school bus, A-Gump sat on a low tree stump with a solemn expression, as if he was lost in thought. The camera slowly moved down and fixed on the feather at his feet.

At this time, a gust of wind blew the feather up, and the feather slowly rose, flying higher and higher, and drifting farther and farther. It danced over the jungle, and then drifted to the distant and unknown sky...

This classic music, the erratic melody accompanied the flying of the feather, sometimes fast, sometimes slow, sometimes spinning, sometimes fluttering...

The movie story ends here.

Li Xiaofan felt that the flying feather seemed to symbolize their personal erratic fate, sometimes lucky and sometimes unlucky...

"Li Xiaofan, what are you daydreaming about!"

Liu Mengchen's shout brought his thoughts back.

Li Xiaofan asked: "How is it, how is this movie?"

"Well, it's very touching and inspiring!"

Guo Hanyue said suddenly: "A-Gump and Jenny grew up together, they can be said to be childhood sweethearts. But after watching the movie, I have a question, why did Jenny never choose Forrest Gump from beginning to end? "

"I feel that Jenny may have been hurt by her alcoholic father when she was a child. What she wanted most was to escape, forget the past, and then start to rebel! In the end, when she had nothing and wanted to return, she might feel that she was no longer worthy of Forrest Gump! I feel that Forrest Gump and Jenny are two completely different life trajectories. They can be friends, but they can't be husband and wife..." Liu Mengchen has his own opinions.

"But I feel that it is a pity that Forrest Gump and Jenny are not together. After watching it, I always feel a little lost..." Guo Hanyue is a very kind girl who pursues perfection.

Li Xiaofan smiled and concluded: "Happy families are similar, and unhappy families have their own misfortunes! Girls, it's late, go to bed early, good night!"

The next morning, the shuttle bus came to pick up Li Xiaofan and other workers ten minutes earlier.

Yesterday, Lin Qianxue informed everyone during the regular meeting that the global board of directors of Westwood Electronics Group will be held in Singapore in the next few days. The bosses of Westwood Electronics Group branches from all over the world will gather in Singapore, and one of the arrangements in the itinerary is to visit their Westwood Electronics factory in Luoyang Industrial Park.

So they arrived at the factory early today to have more time for house keeping, which means general cleaning.

In fact, Li Xiaofan felt that their factory workshop was clean enough under the 5S management, but MD Inabe Saburo and other management were still worried and hoped to make it spotless and leave a good impression on the group bosses.

At 9:30 in the morning, when Li Xiaofan was busy on two second-generation test machines, he saw a group of people coming outside through the glass window.

These people were all dressed in suits and leather shoes, wearing orange-yellow tall hats used by visitors, and wearing "VISTOR" visitor signs on their chests. Most of them were Asian faces.

Li Xiaofan estimated that these bigwigs of the group had come.

This group of VIP visitors, accompanied by factory MD Saburo Inabe and production manager Zheng Zaisheng, entered the electrical testing workshop.

When they came to the two second-generation machines operated by Li Xiaofan, Zheng Zaisheng and Saburo Inabe stopped.

Then Zheng Zaisheng began to introduce in English.

So a group of bigwigs surrounded Li Xiaofan and the two machines and began to listen quietly.

"Ladies and gentlemen, these two second-generation TAIYO electrical testers are the test equipment we introduced at the end of last year at the same time with the group headquarters. At present, our factory has made a skilled operator who can operate two machines at the same time. And according to the group's data, our machine testing efficiency is much higher than that of several other factories in the group. We can now test 1,100 PCBs per hour per machine during the daytime shift, while the average number of the group's global factories is 950. At present, other factories around the world still operate one machine..."

Zheng Zaisheng also specially assigned a beautiful translator to translate into Japanese for these bigwigs at the same time.

After hearing this, Li Xiaofan thought to himself: Damn, they whip the horse and don’t give it grass, and they use me as a model for propaganda, are they trying to tire me to death?
