Tell the story of the characters for 30 seconds to a minute .

Meng's mother moved three times. During the Warring States period, there was a great scholar Mencius. Mencius was very naughty when he was young, and his mother spent a lot of effort in order to give him a good education!

At one time, they lived next to the cemetery. Mencius and the children in the neighborhood learned to bow down and cry as adults, and played the game of handling funerals. When Mencius's mother saw it, she frowned:

No way! I can't let my kids live here anymore! Mencius's mother took Mencius and moved to live next to the market.

When they arrived at the market, Mencius and the neighbor's children learned how to do business as a merchant. One moment to bow and welcome guests, another moment to entertain guests, and another moment to bargain with guests, the performance is very like! Mencius's mother knew about it, and frowned again:

This place is not suitable for my kids either! So, they moved again. This time, they moved closer to the school.

Mencius began to become orderly, polite, and fond of reading. At this time, Mencius's mother nodded with satisfaction and said, "This is where my son should live!"

Later, everyone used "Meng's mother and three moves" to indicate that people should be close to good people, things, and things in order to learn good habits!

Bill gates. His mother was a director of a large company and funded his business venture, so even if he chose to drop out of school (Harvard), it was no accident that he would still succeed in the end. Of course, even if you start your own business after graduation, I personally think it is still feasible.

That's it, less than 1 minute.

Task!!! Let me tell you a story!!

I don't know, children don't be opportunistic, do it yourself.

In the Spring and Autumn Period, Jin Xiangong listened to the rumors, killed the crown prince Shensheng, and sent people to arrest Shensheng's younger brother Chong'er. After hearing the news, he escaped from the Jin Kingdom and forgot about it in exile for more than ten years. Chong'er came to the state of Chu.

King Chu Cheng thought that Chong'er would do great things in the future, so he greeted him with the courtesy of the country and treated him like a guest. One day, the king of Chu set up a banquet to entertain Chong'er, and the two drank and talked about it, and the atmosphere was very harmonious. Suddenly, the king of Chu asked Chong'er:

If you return to the Jin Kingdom one day and become the king, how will you repay me? Chong'er thought for a moment and said: "Beautiful women, treasures and silks, what you have is the king, rare bird feathers, ivory animal skins, and the abundance of Chu, how can there be any rare items in the Jin Kingdom to give to the king?"

The king of Chu said Bi Chun: "The son is too humble." That being said, you should always say something to me, right?

Heavy Ear smiled and said, "If it's your blessing." If I can really return to China and take power, I am willing to be friendly with your country.

If one day, there is a war between the Jin and Chu kingdoms, I will definitely order the army to retreat three rounds (one room is equal to thirty miles), and if I can't get your forgiveness, I will fight you again. ”

Four years later, Chong'er really returned to the Jin Kingdom and became the monarch, which is the famous Duke Wen of Jin in history. The state of Jin grew stronger under his rule. In 633 BC, the armies of Chu and Jin met while fighting.

In order to fulfill the promise he made, the Duke of Jin Wen ordered the army to retreat ninety miles back and station in Chengpu. When the Chu army saw the Jin army retreating, they thought that the other party was scared and immediately pursued. The Jin army took advantage of the weakness of the Chu army's pride and underestimation of the enemy, concentrated its forces, broke the Chu army, and won the victory in the Battle of Chengpu.

The story is from "The Twenty-second Year of the Duke of Zuo". The idiom "retreat" is a metaphor for not arguing with others or taking the initiative to make concessions.

Under the guidance of wisdom, I will step out of the shadow of failure and enter the paradise of abundance, health and happiness, which is beyond my previous dreams. If I could live forever, I could learn everything, but I can't live forever, so in my finite life, I must learn the art of patience, because nature has always acted calmly. It took a hundred years for the Creator to create the olive tree, the king of the trees, and the onion withers after just nine weeks.

I don't want to be the onion-like life I used to have, I want to be the king of all trees, the olive tree, and become the greatest salesman in real life. How can it be? I had neither great knowledge nor experience, and besides, I had fallen into the abyss of ignorance and self-pity.

The answer is simple: I don't let so-called knowledge or experience get in the way of my trip. The Creator has given me enough knowledge and instinct to be gifted with a gift that no other creature can match.

The value of experience is often overestimated, and when people are old, they often talk nonsense. Truth be told, experience does teach us a lot, but it takes too long.

There is a person who has a bit of alchemy, and when he touches something, then he will become golden, and later, his daughter will also become golden, and he regrets it, and asks God to restore him, and from then on, that person will no longer be greedy for money!

The love story "The Love of Jose and Sanmao".

Jose asked Sanmao: What kind of person do you want to marry?

Sanmao said: If it is pleasing to the eye, multimillionaires will also marry; If it doesn't please the eye, billionaires also marry.

José: Speaking of which, I still want to marry someone rich.

Sanmao glanced at Jose: there are exceptions.

And what if you marry me? Jose asked.

Sanmao sighed: If it were you, as long as it was enough money for food. Do you eat too much?

Jose asked. No more, no less, you can eat less in the future.

José: Let's get married.

Sanmao: My heart is broken.

José: If your heart is broken, you can glue it up.

José: I know you have a bad temperament, but you have a good heart, and we can get into fights, but we still have to get married.

Jose: I think very clearly, I want to keep you by my side, only to marry you, or my heart will never be able to reduce this painful feeling, let's get married in the summer, okay?

Sanmao: If there is an afterlife, are you willing to marry me again? JOSE: No, I don't. If there is an afterlife, I want to live a different life.

Just this sentence, Sanmao read it ten times, then went for a walk, and when he came back, he decided to marry the bearded Jose.

What kind of subject? Funny? Sensational? Brain-dead conversations?

How to count a complete story? Beginning and ending the process? No, no, no. That would be too simple.

The story told here is not just one thing, but also engaging, empathetic and easy for readers or listeners to remember.

So what makes a complete story?

I watched a movie "Truman's World" at noon, so let's use this story as an analogy.

Truman is an insurance company broker who grew up in a small town called Taoyuan Island. He seems to live the life of an ordinary person, but in fact he lives a lie without knowing it. Every day in this small town, thousands of cameras film his every move, and everyone around him is an actor.

An oversight by the staff led Truman to meet his father, who died in a shipwreck as a child. Truman took this as an opportunity to gradually see the truth of this world and planned to escape from this false world.

Truman has lived in this false world since he was born. His parents, wife, friends, and colleagues are all actors, and they are all filmed to create a real world for him.

For thirty years, thousands of cameras have monitored Truman's every move in real time, and any abnormal move of Truman will arrange the right people to solve the problem. No one can help him, all are his enemies.

He wanted to leave this small town, and he tried all means. He plans to take the train, which takes a month to get tickets. He was going to take the bus, but the bus broke down. He wanted to drive off, but was stuck in traffic.

He thought of a plan, changed his mind temporarily, bypassed the traffic jam, and found a road with no people. But in the end, he was blocked and taken back.

In order to appease Truman, the director asked his father to return to him, explaining to him that it was because of amnesia that they had been separated for so many years. He became normal again, and the world continued to run according to its original logic.

He used the golden cicada to escape from his shell, secretly left his house in the dark of night, and escaped from the town by boat.

The director mobilized everyone to find Truman, and even turned the night into day, and finally found Truman who drove a sailboat out to sea. The director put the sailboat through a storm, but this did not change Truman's will. Finally, Truman found the border of the small city, found the exit of the world, and left here.

Paragraphs 1 through 7 above are indicated to illustrate the three-minute routine of telling a complete story. That's the bullseye formula. A complete story is made up of seven elements.

From 1 to 7 are goals, obstacles, efforts, outcomes (often bad outcomes), accidents, turns, and endings.

These seven elements are to ask yourself seven questions.

Goal: What is the "goal" of the protagonist?

Hindrance: What is his "obstruction"?

Effort: How does he "work hard"?

Results: What are the "results"? (Usually not good fruit).

Accidents: If the results are not satisfactory and the effort is ineffective, then can there be an "accident" that goes beyond the effort to change all this?

Turn: When an accident happens, how will the plot "turn"?

Finale: What's the final "ending"?

With these seven points in hand, you can also tell a complete story in three minutes. Give it a try!
