Fifty-seven-year-old Zhang Xilin sat in a spacious and bright living room, holding his newborn son in his hands, his eyebrows full of love and pride. This middle-aged man has reaped fruitful fruits in his career and family.
Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, Zhang Xilin has entered his twilight years. However, compared to his peers who gradually withdrew from the stage to relax themselves, he still maintained a strong enthusiasm for work.
When asked if he was ready to retire, Zhang Xilin would always smile and say, "Please forgive me for not being able to retire, after all, I still have to earn money to support my two children." "For a man who is over half a hundred years old, old and young, this is not out of a desire to give up his work, but out of an infinite sense of responsibility to his family.
This kind of attention and devotion to the family is vividly manifested in Zhang Xilin. His gentle and considerate way of taking care of him touched the relatives and friends around him.
Looking at the way he treats children, it seems that he has regained the enthusiastic youth of the year. A friend sighed from the bottom of his heart. Whenever Zhang Xilin, who rushes home immediately after work, he always talks intimately with his wife Zhu Min, shares the bits and pieces of work, and repeatedly asks about the children's diet and daily life.
Even the once chaotic little house has become neat and clean under Zhang Xilin's careful care, and it is full of warm atmosphere.
Such a family scene moved Zhang Xilin's relatives and friends. They can't help but sigh that this man, who once regarded his family as a burden, now exudes unprecedented brilliance in the company of his children and wife.
Compared with Zhang Xilin when he was young, he now seems more calm and steady, and he is more motivated and passionate to work.
"No one dares to say I'm old, I feel like I'm still alive and I still have enough energy to work for a few more decades. Zhang Xilin said with a confident smile. This fifty-seven-year-old man still has the vigor and passion of a young man.
Although time flies, as long as there is love in his heart, he will always be a teenager.
This kind of love and optimism for life is exactly what Zhang Xilin has been sticking to for many years. Even at the low point of his career, he never gave up his dreams, but used his perseverance and hard work to reach the peak step by step.
Now, he has finally realized his dream and reaped the double happiness of his career and family, and this sense of accomplishment is self-evident.
Contingent First Love Heavy Pick-up Happiness
Mr. Zhang, 45, sat alone in a corner of a social gathering, clutching a glass of beer. His eyes were a little lonely, this man who was not confused in his years had not been able to find his own happiness.
Just then, a familiar face came into his sight. Zhang Xilin's pupils shrank, and he looked at the woman in disbelief. It turned out that this was his first love when he was young - Zhu Min.
Over the years, Zhu Min's appearance has changed, but she still maintains the same demeanor as she did back then. Looking at this woman he once loved, Zhang Xilin's heart swelled with a long-lost throbbing.
The eyes of the two looked at each other inadvertently, and it suddenly seemed to go back in time, regaining the sweetness and sourness of the year.
Such a chance encounter undoubtedly surprised Zhang Xilin, but it was more joyful. He immediately put down the wine glass in his hand, walked to Zhu Min's side, and greeted him warmly.
Zhu Min also looked a little embarrassed, but still took the initiative to greet Zhang Xilin. The two quickly found a common language and chatted about the bits and pieces of the year.
"I didn't expect us to meet here again, it's really fate. Zhu Min blinked his eyes and said a little shyly.
"Yes, I remember how you rejected my confession. Zhang Xilin recalled with a smile, "It seems that time has not changed your mind. "
Zhu Min playfully pushed Zhang Xilin, "That's because you were too innocent at the time, which made me feel that I couldn't let go of my defense." But now it seems that you have become more mature and stable.
The conversation between the two suddenly became intimate, as if time had never passed. Such a tacit understanding surprised the friends present, and they all joked about "matching" them together.
In the face of the good-natured jokes of their friends, Zhang Xilin and Zhu Min couldn't help but blush. However, in this conversation, they vaguely felt that the other party had a good impression of them.
Maybe it was the unrealizable first love that regained hope, or maybe it was each other's desire to find their own belonging, in short, the spark of love gradually rose between them.
In this way, with the help of friends, Zhang Xilin and Zhu Min quickly established a stable relationship. The two visited each other's homes in just a few days to get to know each other's family situations.
Although the speed of such a "flash marriage" surprised the people around them, for the lovers, it was a fateful encounter.
Finally, Zhang Xilin and Zhu Min officially entered the palace of marriage under the witness of relatives and friends. This man, who was once lonely all his life, now finally has a family of his own.
Since then, his life has been turned upside down.
"I used to be so busy with work that I didn't have time to take care of my family. But since I met Zhu Min, I have found that life can be so beautiful. Zhang Xilin said with emotion, "She not only gave me a warm harbor, but also gave me unprecedented motivation."
His little house has also been kept tidy and warm by his wife's meticulous care. After work, Zhang Xilin always rushed home immediately, talked intimately with his wife, and shared the bits and pieces of work and life.
Such a state of life moved Zhang Xilin's relatives and friends.

Break through many obstacles to realize the dream of acting
28-year-old Zhang Xilin stood at the work of the printing factory, looking at the regular operation of the machinery in front of him, and his heart could not be calm for a long time.
This young man, who was once fearless in pursuing his dreams, is now feeling lost about his future. He once resolutely gave up this stable job and devoted himself to the exploration of his acting career.
However, the cruelty of reality ends up making it difficult for him to continue.
"I really couldn't stand working with the roar of machinery, and I longed to step into the temple of art and realize my dreams. Zhang Xilin sighed and said, "However, the reality always makes me sigh."
For parents, this decision is undoubtedly confusing. They have always hoped that their son can have a stable job and live a stable and comfortable life. However, Zhang Xilin chose a challenging artistic path, which made them feel worried.
Faced with his parents' doubts, Zhang Xilin could only be speechless. How he wished he could defend himself and tell them about his persistence in his dreams. However, when he looked at the few coins in his hand, all the words choked in his throat.
In this way, Zhang Xilin embarked on a long and arduous road to study. He first came to Beijing Film Academy and began the process of learning acting. However, in the process of studying, he encountered many unexpected difficulties.
The most important thing is that Zhang Xilin's performance in cultural classes has been mediocre, which makes it impossible for him to successfully complete his studies. Despite his talent in professional classes, such a defeat put him in a desperate situation.
"I knew I had a unique talent in business, but I failed repeatedly in cultural classes. It really made me feel helpless and frustrated. "At that time, I really began to doubt whether I had made the right choice.
After experiencing two setbacks in the college entrance examination, Zhang Xilin once again mustered up his courage and was determined to make a big splash in the third chance. He tried his best to prepare for the exam, reviewing various subjects day and night.
In the end, he got his wish and entered the Shanghai Theater Academy and realized his dream.
"During that time, I was reading with a book in my hand and nibbling on a meager steamed bun, and even though life was hard, I still felt extremely fulfilled. Zhang Xilin recalled, "These efforts and efforts are all to realize the dream in my heart."
Although he encountered many obstacles in his academic career, Zhang Xilin never gave up. With his tenacious willpower and love for art, he finally successfully graduated from the Shanghai Theater Academy.
This also laid a solid foundation for his future acting career.
After these difficult years, Zhang Xilin has completely transformed into a stable and mature man. Instead of pursuing success as he had done at the beginning, he began to seek a balance between art and life.
"Even though the road was tough, I never regretted my choice. Zhang Xilin said with emotion, "Because only through such struggles can I finally realize my dream."
Parents oppose the dream of acting
As a child, Zhang Xilin showed a strong interest in performing arts. He always imitates various characters at home, which makes his parents laugh. But when he grew up and proposed to embark on the path of acting, his parents' attitude changed 180 degrees.
As a traditional Chinese family, they have always hoped that their son can have a job facing the sea and live a comfortable and comfortable life. But Zhang Xilin chose a challenging acting path, which made them feel incomprehensible.
"You have to know how unstable the profession of an actor is! If you lose your job, won't we have to worry about you? It's better to go back to that enviable 'iron rice bowl' job as soon as possible." Zhang Xilin's mother couldn't help but nag.
In the face of the repeated persuasion of his parents, Zhang Xilin felt very dazed for a while. How he wished he could defend himself and tell them what acting meant to him. However, when he looked down at the few coins in his hand, all the words choked in his throat.
"Money can be accumulated at any time, but the opportunity to make your dreams come true is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Zhang Xilin once told his parents that he was trying to convince them to support his choice.
But their concerns have shattered their convictions time and time again.
In the end, under the strong opposition of his parents, Zhang Xilin gave up the "iron rice bowl" job that everyone yearns for without hesitation and embarked on the arduous road of acting.
This decision undoubtedly made the parents anxious. They often fear that their son will have no future and no success.
Faced with his parents' doubts, Zhang Xilin could only bow his head silently, not knowing how to answer. How he wished he could defend himself and tell them about his persistence in his dreams.
But the hardships of reality made him lose the courage to speak out.
In this way, Zhang Xilin embarked on a long and bumpy road to acting. During his studies, he again encountered many difficulties. The weak grades in the cultural class once made him on the verge of giving up, but he finally entered the Shanghai Theater Academy with tenacious willpower.
"At that time, I was reading hard while holding a book, and at the same time eating meager steamed buns. Even though life is hard, I still feel very fulfilled. Zhang Xilin recalled, "Because I knew that these efforts were all to realize my dreams."
After years of hard work, Zhang Xilin finally made a breakthrough in his acting career. But even at this time, parents' worries lingered.
They often call for Zhang Xilin to retire as soon as possible and enjoy his old age with peace of mind.
"Son, you're so old, why don't you go on a blind date? Zhang Xilin's parents always couldn't help but persuade him.
For such a suggestion, Zhang Xilin just smiled faintly. He is no longer the teenager who was easily moved by his parents' words, but a middle-aged man with his own determined pursuits.
"Although my choices worried my parents, I never regretted them. Zhang Xilin said firmly, "Because only in this way can I finally realize my artistic dream."
