Things I’ll Never Say #4 / 不想说 #4

你真的很烦,我总是内心冷冷的看着他、但外表还是一副 “你好、你想干嘛”的样子。你到底在干嘛?你要进吗、还是退呢,你要进不退的样子、我是要假装自己没看见吗,还是直接让你停、然后转身就走呢?还是我直接避开你好了。

当我无法避开你的时候,我发现我很喜欢你和你在一起的时间,自在、静谧、想说就说、不说也不会没有信息量,我不知道这叫什么,我喜欢男生吗、确实有些陌生的感觉。我喜欢他吗,还是另一个,什么是喜欢、有什么区别。我不懂。


ChatGPT translation:

You’re honestly so annoying. Inside, I’m always watching him with a cold stare, but on the outside I still keep up that “Hi, what do you want?” look. What are you even doing? Are you coming closer or backing off? If you’re moving in, acting like you won’t retreat—am I supposed to pretend I don’t notice? Or should I just tell you to stop and walk away? Or maybe I should just avoid you altogether.

But when I can’t avoid you, I realize I really enjoy the time I spend with you. It’s easy, quiet, natural. I can talk if I want to, and if I don’t, it doesn’t feel empty. I don’t know what this is called. Do I like boys? It feels a bit unfamiliar. Do I like him, or is it someone else? What even is “liking” someone? What’s the difference? I don’t know.

I’m an independent creator born in 1993 in Changsha, now based in California. My writing started from an urgent need to express. Back in school, I often felt overwhelmed by the chaos and complexity of the world—by the emotions and stories left unsaid. Writing became my way of organizing my thoughts, finding clarity, and gradually, connecting with the outside world.


Right now, I’m focused on writing and filmmaking. My blog is a “real writing experiment,” where I try to update daily, documenting my thoughts, emotional shifts, observations on relationships, and my creative process. It’s also a record of my journey to becoming a director. After returning to China in 2016, I entered the film industry and worked in the visual effects production department on projects like Creation of the Gods I, Creation of the Gods II, and Wakanda Forever, with experience in both China and Hollywood. Since 2023, I’ve shifted my focus to original storytelling. I’m currently developing several scripts and will shoot when the time feels right. You can check out my IMDb: https://m.imdb.com/name/nm12651401/.


I’m currently revising my first script. It’s not grand in scale, but it’s deeply personal—centered on memory, my father, and the city. I want to make films that belong to me, and to our generation: grounded yet profound, sensitive but resolute. I believe film is not only a form of artistic expression—it’s a way to intervene in reality.

我是1993年出生于长沙的自由创作者,现居加州。我的写作起点来自一种“必须表达”的冲动。学生时代,我常感受到世界的混乱与复杂,那些没有被说出来的情绪和故事让我感到不安。写作是我自我整理、自我清晰的方式,也逐渐成为我与外界建立连接的路径。


我目前专注于写作和电影。我的博客是一个“真实写作实验”,尽量每天更新,记录我的思考、情绪流动、人际观察和创作过程。我16年回国之后开始进入电影行业,曾在视效部门以制片的身份参与制作《封神1》《封神2》《Wankanda Forever》等,在中国和好莱坞都工作过,23年之后开始转入创作,目前正在创作一些剧本,时机合适的时候会拍。可以看下我的imdb:https://m.imdb.com/name/nm12651401/


我正在重新回去修改我第一个剧本——它并不宏大,却非常个人,围绕记忆、父亲与城市展开。我想拍属于我、也属于我们这一代人的电影:贴地而深刻,敏感又笃定。我相信电影不只是艺术表达,它也是一种现实干预。
