After rebirth, she first killed the book thief, and she was busy writing articles to save people

Chapter 312 Glass Cage

Jiang Baige walked over and patted the girl on the shoulder.

The girl turned around, her face was covered with dried tears. She was not wearing any makeup, but the traces of tears remained on her face, which felt cold.

So Jiang Baige asked her if she was cold sitting here alone.

The girl shook her head and touched her heart: "Nothing is colder than my heart."

At this time, she saw the work badge on Jiang Baige's neck that she had not yet taken off, and asked her if she worked in the short drama crew.

Jiang Baige nodded.

The girl's tears seemed to be falling again: "Do you know that I also participated in that skit competition...but I was rejected."

Jiang Baige knew about this matter.

Yang Ziyu seems to be very keen on discovering new talents, so she often sets up various competitions and awards.

In addition to the young director program that made Ji Zhengliu stand out, the short play he invested in this time also won the first prize in a short play screenwriting competition last year.

"So what do you think of this skit?"

The girl didn't say anything, but handed a stack of A4 papers, which were not very thick, to Jiang Baige.

It turned out that the script was written by a girl.

Jiang Baige had intended to just flip through the book symbolically and return it to her, but she was so attracted to it after reading just a few pages that she even sat down next to the girl and finished reading the script.

She didn't look at it carefully, but she could tell that it was a good story.

"Your script is very well written..." Jiang Baige said sincerely, "It doesn't matter if it's not selected this time, you can try again next time. There are many opportunities to submit works now..."

The girl interrupted Jiang Baige and said, "There is no chance. I have graduated for three years and participated in many competitions, but I didn't achieve any results. When I participated in this competition last year, I told myself that if I failed again this time, I would go home and take the civil service exam."

Here it is again...

Why is it that everyone's "destination" after giving up their dreams is always so similar? This is true for Yu Xiaobei, and the girl in front of him is also like this.

Even Jiang Baige couldn't help but say something for those within the system: Am I in a lowly job?

Or maybe, it is never a certain position that is despised, but the person himself.

It's some kind of default rule that "if you can't reach a certain level, you don't deserve to live the life you want."

It seems that we come to this world not to live our lives, but just to become cattle and horses for a small group of people.

Jiang Baige hated all this from the bottom of her heart, but was powerless to change it.

She was powerless to change it, and she knew it.

Even if she didn't have the chance to start her own life over again, what would be the difference between her and those people she was pitying at this moment?

At least he survived, but she - starved to death!

"But, since you gave up last year..." Because the result of this competition was announced in the middle of last year, "then why are you giving up now..."

These words completely touched the pain deep in the girl's heart.

"I can't accept it... I really can't accept it. Didn't you just say that you think my story is good, right? But why..."

She wanted to explain why she was so unlucky, but she had already begun to doubt her own abilities, so she thought, maybe it was because her writing was not good enough. But that was something she was unwilling to admit.

Those thoughts were fighting and colliding in her mind, and in the end they couldn't be combined into complete sentences.

"So I came here. I wanted to see how the first-place work was better than mine..."

There are some differences between screenwriting competitions and online writing competitions. What is submitted is a complete script, and even if the judging results are out, the works of all contestants will not be made public.

So she lost, and she didn't know why she lost.

"So how do you feel now?"

"I'm not convinced!"

The girl's voice seemed to burst out from her body, completely changing the uncertainty just now.

"It's just a cliché love story, using some clichéd plots, misunderstandings, true love, and the fact that I came just for you among all the people in the world... Is the heroine a disabled person? Why does she need the hero to save her?"

Her voice got louder. "Isn't the theme of this competition 'I am the heroine and I have the final say'? Why did a drama that put all the limelight on men win first place? I don't accept it!"

At this moment, Jiang Baige saw many people in the girl: herself, Yang Yang Tiandan, Linlang, Jingchai, Ji Zhengliu, and the heroines she created...

Too many girls' faces appeared in front of her and then disappeared.

This girl will also disappear soon...

Disappeared from this industry, silently, like a ghost, as if never existed.

Jiang Baige was once one of the viewers who complained, “Why aren’t any of these crappy TV series worth watching?” and “Why aren’t any of these heroines normal people?” until she changed her perspective and became one of the creators…

Only then did she understand how difficult it was for these creators who wanted to express girls to get in front of everyone.

In front of them, there was a completely transparent cage.

When they stay in cages, they are always safe and comfortable, enjoying the same happiness.

But when they want to see the scenery farther away, they will suddenly bump into the cage, break their heads and bleed, or even bleed to death...

Fortunately, although this cage is strong, the determination of those who want to break through it is even stronger.

They rushed towards death one after another...

Finally, they opened a small gap in the cage, and some clever and smart people got out.

But the gap soon closed again.

Later, those who wanted to see the scenery farther away had to continue to rush out.

Infinite loop, never ending.

However... when more and more of them appeared outside, they became stronger and returned to the cage, trying to break open the huge, boundless transparent cage from the outside...

The ending of the entertainment industry article suddenly appeared in Jiang Baige’s mind.

She took out a notebook from her bag, wrote down a few phone numbers on it, then tore off the paper and handed it to the girl.

"Here are a few phone numbers. They belong to directors, companies, producers... I can't guarantee that they will all accept your script. Maybe they won't even answer your call. But if you can convince them, your dream of becoming a screenwriter is not shattered."

Is this a shortcut?

Jiang Baige didn’t know.

She didn't even know the girl's name, nor did she know whether she had given up completely, or whether these calls were of any use to her.

But she remembered what Han Li and Ji Zhengliu had said, that in an industry dominated by men, women should unite and help each other.

Even her calls today didn't help the girl.

But if I could let her rekindle that unwilling hope and continue writing, it would be a good ending... wouldn't it?
