Chapter 296: Playing is fun, but never joking about serious matters
Anyway, this is not the first time that Zhao Hao has had a headache about how to record next. The seven people who are used to it just sit in their seats and watch the director pulling their hair and laughing and taking advantage of the situation. No one is prepared to give him any substantial suggestions.
It is the director's job to consider how to record the show. What does it have to do with these guests?
Originally, Zhao Hao had tried many times to calculate the probability. The probability of reaching the end and winning 1500 was not high, not to mention that there was a 3/7 probability of losing money. Who would have thought that the game that Wang Zhengliang, Yu Yu, Lu Hu and Su Xing failed to win would actually fail to win at Zhang Yuan.
The old Beibeis who had paid off their debts and had the "huge sum" of 1094 yuan in their hands were not at all panicked. The leader directly said that they would change their itinerary today and not go to Qiongzhong. The financial director also complained that they were asked to go to Qiongzhong because it was said that half of their debts could be waived. Now the debts have been paid off long ago, so what else can be reduced?
The brothers had a lot of fun teasing Zhao Hao, and they finally understood why Yu Yu always liked to tease others.
"Now that the debt has been paid off and the itinerary has been changed to a free trip, there's nothing to worry about, right? I'll just go out for a walk and read Cyrus's updates." Yu Yu pretended to get up and go out for a walk before coming back, obviously teasing Zhao Hao who hadn't figured out what to do next.
"Xiao Yu, where are you going? I'll go with you." Wang Yuexin immediately raised her head upon hearing that, and looked at Yu Yu with a pair of starry eyes, like a hook looking forward to a walk, just wanting to stick with Yu Yu and go out to play.
"Take me, take me, take me, take me."
Lu Hu also hurried over, fearing that Teacher Sai would abandon him. He had finally gotten a chance to appear on Teacher Sai's big show, so how could he possibly give it up? Moreover, P, who had come to Chengmai without any preparation and no familiarity with the place, really needed to cling to J's thigh.
"Then you guys go, I won't go. Going on vacation and lying leisurely in a beautiful place to empty your mind is a real vacation." Su Xing said that instead of running around and visiting tourist attractions as soon as he opened his eyes every day, he would rather lie down in a resort hotel with everything he needs for a day.
Of course Yu Yu knew Su Xing's personality. When they traveled together before, the itinerary arrangements were always comfortable and casual, so he just nodded after listening and looked at the remaining three people.
"So what do you say?"
Zhang Yuan hesitated for a moment, then chose to join Su Xing in the fight: "I just want to empty myself."
"If you want to go shopping, where are you going?" Wang Zhengliang wanted to see Yu Yu's destination before making a decision.
"I think our schedule doesn't need to be so rushed. The pace like yesterday afternoon is fine." Chen Fusheng said. What he meant was that if Yu Yu was planning a special forces trip, he would decline.
Zhao Hao listened to them talking to themselves, unable to get a word in. The discussion became increasingly heated, seemingly unrelated to their intention to tease him. They were genuinely planning to change their schedule and allow them to do whatever they wanted. "Wait a minute, the production team hasn't agreed to your free time yet! Do you even take the production team seriously?"
"I plan to visit the ancient village. Didn't the director say last night that there are volunteer guides from the village committee?" Yu Yu didn't want to waste other people's kindness.
——Of course I take it seriously. Not only do I take it seriously, I also hold it in my heart!
Zhao Hao was immediately overjoyed when the rainstorm turned to clearness. He knew that his brothers would play and joke around, but they would never joke about serious matters.
"Then I can go and take a look." Wang Zhengliang nodded.
"I haven't been to the ancient village here yet. I'd like to go and take a look." Chen Fusheng also agreed to go with them.
Su Xing changed the subject: "If we go to Luoyi Ancient Village, that's fine too. It's not far away. The houses built of volcanic rocks are quite good for filming. I can also take a look at them. No, I can carefully select some materials to shoot for an episode."
"If you all go, then I'll go too. It's broad daylight, and there's nothing to be afraid of in an uninhabited village." Zhang Yuan patted his chest. He didn't believe that the ancient village could be so gloomy in broad daylight.
Flirting with Zhao Hao was a personal grudge, but the brothers still had a strong sense of professional ethics when it came to doing serious work. Even if they had money, they would still visit the ancient village, and of course they would go to Qiongzhong.
Zhao Hao thought that if he followed behind Lao Beibei and took pictures of Yu Yu and Su Xing taking pictures of the ancient village, he could also take part in, no, learn some new shooting perspectives and put them into the update.
The seven of them arrived at Luoyi Ancient Village according to their original plan yesterday.
Yu Yu got the phone number of the volunteer who would take them to visit the ancient village from the director team. Less than ten minutes after contacting the other party, a middle-aged man with simple clothes and dark skin came in front of everyone.
The other party's surname is Li. It is said that his ancestors were also wealthy people in the ancient village of Luoyi. The former site of the Li's ancestral hall is in the ancient village. Of course, they have now moved to the new village next door.
"In that case, Brother Li, you are not only a local, but also a native of the ancient village," said Su Xing.
"In fact, more than half of the people in our new village are from the original old village," said Brother Li. "It's just that most of the houses in Luoyi Ancient Village are very old, and many of them are not suitable for living now. So the government helped us move to the new village, which is right next to our old home. If we want to find our roots, we can go back anytime."
"Come on, let's talk while we walk."
Brother Li is not a professional tour guide, and this is not his job. He is just a farmer and spends most of his time working in the fields.
When he was doing farm work, he would occasionally see tourists visiting the ancient village because of its reputation. However, because the real ancient village was far from the mysterious place they imagined, they would always wander around the door for less than ten minutes before returning home disappointed.
In the eyes of people who are not clear about the background of the ancient village and do not understand the cultural value of ancient buildings, Luoyi Ancient Village only has some dilapidated stone houses overgrown with weeds, and there is nothing special about it. So Brother Li spontaneously became a tour guide. He can't say he is very professional, but this is his hometown after all, and he still knows some unknown secrets.
There was nothing profound about what Brother Li said. When he mentioned his two completely opposite identities as a farmer and a tour guide, which would generally never be mentioned together by others, he just smiled embarrassedly. He was a little worried that his professional level was not high enough and his explanation was not good enough, which would give people a bad impression of Luoyi Ancient Village.
The brothers were inexplicably touched and emotional.
In fact, Brother Li’s explanation was very down-to-earth, and it was obvious that he had put in a lot of effort to learn on his own.
Luoyi Ancient Village was founded in the late Southern Song Dynasty. Initially, it served as a post station, where Su Dongpo camped during his exile in Danzhou, Nanhai. Gradually, a village developed around this desolate post station, where people and vehicles once bustled constantly, and ancient buildings constructed from volcanic rock stood side by side.
Hundreds of years have passed, the buildings are deserted, and only those neatly divided stone houses remain, carrying the past, present and future.
If we ignore the historical and cultural background and historical architectural relics behind it, at first glance, Luoyi Ancient Village looks like a poor village commonly seen in the arid northern regions of China. It is no wonder that some people comment that this place is just a few dilapidated houses and there is nothing to see.
Compared with other ancient towns, Luoyi Ancient Village does not have any overly rich history. It is insignificant to outsiders. Even many young people in the new village have gradually forgotten their unique history and yearn for life in big cities outside. Brother Li knows that there is nothing wrong with this, but some people choose to go out, and some people choose to stay.
So he has been here all the time. His children once thought of taking him to live in Haikou, but he still felt that life in the countryside was the most comfortable. Besides, he also needed someone to remember his roots.
"Without the inheritance, what if one day the story of Luoyi Ancient Village is cut off?" Wang Yuexin frowned slightly. When the memory of a person or thing gradually fades away, perhaps that is the time when the person or thing truly leaves this world. He doesn't like this feeling very much. After being forgotten by the world, he can't even become a regret.
Brother Li smiled innocently: "The stele is still there, and the sign we erected for the ancient village is still there. Even if our generation is gone, those stone houses and stone towers will still be there."
His words were simple, but they made everyone applaud. Su Xing said with admiration, "Oh, Brother Li, you said you didn't understand those big principles. I think you really have a lot of wisdom in life. You are very insightful, more insightful than the rest of us."
"Words are our heritage." Yu Yu nodded as he took a few photos to record it.
"By the way, the 'we' I mentioned don't include you." Su Xing added after seeing Yu Yu speak.
"? Mr. Su, are you targeting me?" Yu Yu was stunned.
"Then take a look at Teacher Sai's work. It's really transparent, and the perspective is amazing." Zhang Yuan came forward and saw Yu Yu's photo, and immediately gave a thumbs up.
"Okay, okay, I can't beat you two alone."
Yu Yu joked, but he also believed that after this episode and Cyrus's account were updated, when the scorching sun shone through the cracks in the volcanic rocks, and mottled light traveled through eight hundred years of time and fell on the post road, leaving behind interlaced light and shadows, there would always be more and more people willing to learn about the historical and cultural village of Nanhai and Brother Li's hometown.
After visiting Luoyi Ancient Village, it was lunch time. We originally wanted to drive out to find a restaurant to eat, but because of Brother Li’s “kindness”, we couldn’t refuse it no matter how we tried to “refuse”. So we had to go back to the new village with Brother Li, sit in the yard, and eat the farm dishes made by Sister Li with “politeness” and “restraint”.
Thinking it would be bad for Brother and Sister Li to eat leftovers at night, they kindly adhered to the principle of not wasting food and implemented the "Clean Plate Campaign". Seeing the large table of food she cooked being swept away, Sister Li was surprised at their appetite, but also very happy that their cooking skills were appreciated.
Then again, aren’t celebrities said to eat very little? Mrs. Li wondered.
Seriously, if they go to the buffet, they can definitely make their money back. Even if Bird doesn't eat much and Flower of the Sea performs normally, the three of Yu, Long, and Hu can still keep the four of them company.
After dinner, everyone said goodbye to Brother Li and his wife who had sent them to the village gate. Yu Yu drove the car and took his brothers to Qiongzhong.
