Chapter 44
Chapter 44
The reality show is expected to be launched in the summer, and it will be assembled in May and filmed in the mountains in June, which is completely an assembly line model.
Poplar, Fei Yiming and Zhong Xinyang were invited to the company to discuss this project.
For the first time, they got the proposal and script.
Nowadays, reality shows are no longer popular shows, food, travel, parent-child, love... Various types are blooming everywhere.
This time, however, they were a little different.I went to the mountains in southern Guizhou to work as rural teachers for left-behind children.
In addition to the three boys, there is also a girl joining.
That girl was none other than Meng Yue, who wore sophisticated clothes at the celebration banquet of "Love in Heaven" last year, and she was also the older sister of Meng Yu, an old acquaintance of Pu Li and Zhong Xinyang.
Meng Yue's recent scandal with a married male star made her very unhappy. The big production she had originally negotiated fell through, and in the end she was forced into the project by her agent.Probably to let the audience see her in real life, and at the same time, "country teacher" is also a label that is easy to win favor with.
Populus fully saw Xinghe's intention to create such a program at this time.It was really what Zhong Xinyang said, but because he couldn't see a group of them eating for nothing, so he came up with something for them to do.
Pu Li began to read the script, and all the agents participated in the creation, trying to show the more positive images of the artists in the program.Those with a small temper and a harmless personality will also be exposed.
Populus knew something about this place when he watched the movie "Daxi Mountain".It is almost a picturesque place with many ethnic groups and simple folk customs.At the same time, due to geological and other problems, there are many mountainous roads and little cultivated land, and the economic development is relatively slow. Many villages are even hidden deep in the mountains, making it difficult to access roads.
In recent years, with state support and good policies, the economic situation there has improved a lot, but there are still many problems.Just like what is written in the planning book that Pu Li is reading now.As the young and vigorous labor force goes out to work all year round, the left-behind elderly and children in many villages account for more than 90% of the permanent population.
Young people go to big cities to find their dreams, and they have no time to take care of their young children. In addition, the local conditions are really difficult. The distance between villages is often from one mountain to the other. The two people can hear their shouts clearly, and they want to see each other. On the one hand, it takes a long time to walk, and the material conditions are very limited.Very few young people are willing to come here to teach.
Even if there is, I still feel novelty in the first month, and I start to look forward to returning to the city.
For this reason, the local government has thought of many ways to introduce talents, but after many efforts, the results are still unsatisfactory.
While listening to the planning teacher, Pu Li looked at the pictures in the planning book. "Daxi Mountain" tells the story here, teachers, children, backwardness, education... These problems have not been substantially changed after more than ten years.
"The planning project this time was determined by the local government and Xinghe. Everyone knows that Xinghe made a movie called "Daxi Mountain" more than ten years ago. The movie caused a sensation when it was released. Restrictions in terms of conditions have not greatly improved the local people's livelihood and education. Now, there are roads, electricity, and even the Internet. The local leaders want to rely on culture and entertainment to carry out a local Propaganda and promotion, intending to improve education, and even introduce funds for the local tourism industry, so that young people from outside can return to their hometowns and end wandering..."
"Good idea..." Fei Yiming rubbed his hands together, as if he couldn't wait to join the fight.
Zhong Xinyang twitched his lips: "The mountains are high and the roads are far away, it is not suitable for human survival at all, what are you doing?"
The planning teacher laughed: "Galaxy Entertainment is no longer the same Galaxy Entertainment as it was a year ago. This year, Mr. Mu invested a lot of energy in building an online media platform. This program not only signed a broadcast agreement with a certain satellite TV, but also It is the first self-made reality show after Xinghe Internet Media launched. In the future, Xinghe will become an all-round entertainment company that creates and trains artists, produces and produces programs, distributes and sells entertainment... The burden on everyone is not easy.”
Pope didn't say a word, he was still immersed in the scene of "Daxi Mountain", as if he heard the young man named "Alai", carrying the sick student on his back, running in the heavy rain and crying heartbreakingly .
That night before going to bed, Pu Li made a video call with Mu Chi, and Mu Chi lived in the apartment over there, wearing a nightgown and just washed up.
"Brother Xiaochi, I went to the planning department of "Country Teacher" today." Pu Li said to Mu Chi, the video was a bit stuck, and he wasn't sure if Mu Chi heard it.
Mu Chi laughed, and kissed him across the screen: "How did they find you here?"
"Do you know about this project?" Pu Li asked Mu Chi.
Mu Chi nodded: "Of course, every project of Xinghe can't be confirmed without my signature."
"Then do you think I want to go?" Pu Li asked Mu Chi.
Mu Chi put the phone on the table and supported it with a stand, took off his nightgown, his tight muscles glistening.He seemed to be thinking, but he didn't seem to understand the question of Populus Quercus.
Pu Li waited for a few seconds, and was about to ask again, Mu Chi changed into his shirt, put on his zodiac watch, approached the phone, and picked up the phone.
"As a lover, I don't really want you to go there," Mu Chi said, with a nice voice, he sat on the chair by the bed, a ray of sunshine illuminated the ends of his hair, "because it's very dangerous there, and there are no places to eat and live. The conditions are very poor, I'm afraid you will suffer."
Pu Li smiled, and Mu Chi could only continue to smile at the phone.
In fact, the reason why he didn't want Populus to go is very simple, that is, he didn't want to have the slightest relationship between Populus and Qin Shan, even if they were separated by time and space for more than ten years.What's more, it was the place mentioned in "Daxi Mountain". When the show was broadcast, people would compare them with Qin Shan's A Lai without publicity.
"What about being the boss?" Pope asked, with some expectation in his eyes.
With that look in his eyes, Mu Chi already knew what Pu Li was thinking.
He buttoned the last twist with one hand, put a dark tie around his neck, and said, "Of course I hope you go, there can let you grow, whether as a boy or as an artist."
"Really?" Populus blinked, "Then I'm going?"
"Well," Mu Chi knew that this matter was not up to him alone. Since the company had already asked Pu Li to talk about the project, he couldn't be special because of personal reasons, "Go if you want."
"Then I'll really go," Pu Li gave Mu Chi a kiss, and laughed, showing his big white teeth, "Also, I'm not a boy anymore, I'm a man."
Mu Chi hung up the phone with a smile, pulled off his tie, stood up and called the full-length mirror again.
During this period of time, he thought a lot, starting from that white T-shirt, he knew that in the future, as long as he was with Poplar, he would inevitably encounter similar things again.
Qin Shan, whether as the biological father of Poplar or an experienced actor, will always meet them again in various forms in the future.
He couldn't build a glass cover for him in order to prevent this person from appearing next to Poplar, it would only become a cage.Shutting up the Poplar tree also shuts itself down.
Populus is an adult, it is important to have its own choices and judgments.And himself, as another mature and independent individual, it is equally important to respect his lover's choice and judgment.
Mu Chi has always shown self-confidence. In fact, he knows that he is always the one who is humble and cowardly in front of his feelings, either hesitating or rushing forward, and he can't express himself well.
"Country Teacher" is officially assembled. In Xinghe's mansion, the four artists, their managers, assistants, planning teachers, directors, photographers, scene notes...
Half of it is true and half of it is false. They sat in the planning room, seemingly focused on being recorded by the camera with the elements of performance. They signed contracts, chatted, and said everything they knew about Qiannan.
In the early morning of the second day, planning teachers, photographers, and directors came to the door. According to the contract, their itinerary will be recorded from the moment they sign the contract. Therefore, when they set off, they will naturally come to let them pack their luggage under the camera.
The planning teacher appeared in the camera, and the camera captured the packing process of Poplar and Zhong Xinyang from his perspective.
Zhong Xinyang picked two pairs out of many shoeboxes, turned to the camera and returned to the sunny boy in the past, and said, "It's the first time I went there, and I heard that the road is not easy to walk, so I'd better bring two more pairs of shoes there."
The planning teacher chatted with him about sneakers, and then went to the Poplar.
Pope's suitcase was packed the night before, and the planning teacher asked him what he had brought, and he smiled: "It's just a few changes of clothes."
The camera wandered around the house at will, and Populus didn't want to be photographed, but it was written in the contract, and he had already cleaned and tidied the house many times, and finally persuaded himself to wait quietly for the signal to leave.
The camera moved the lens to the watch on the bedside table, seemingly just wanting to record the time at this moment.
This kind of shooting, a lot of inadvertent small materials, are often edited later to produce unexpected effects.
Finally set off, a seven-seater commercial vehicle, the planning teacher sat in the co-pilot, and Pu Li and Zhong Xinyang sat in the rear compartment together.
Populus touched the last row, and Zhong Xinyang sat in front of him.
For some reason in front of the camera, Pope always felt that he had nothing to say. Unlike Zhong Xinyang, who was indifferent to the show before signing the contract, he seemed to enter the state of "actor" immediately after signing the contract.
Populus was a little distressed, wondering if he should say more, but in the end, for some reason, he pulled out the earphone cable disobediently with his fingers, and buckled a big earphone on his head.
The car stopped and went, went through the morning rush hour, and picked up Fei Yiming.
After Fei Yiming got into the car, unexpectedly, he and Zhong Xinyang showed an intimacy they had never had before.
Zhong Xinyang also replied to him with the same enthusiasm.
With earphones on his head, Populus couldn't hear their conversation clearly, and only saw the camera that was filming pointing in his direction.
