Chapter 728: Some Different Thoughts
Dali's various scenic spots are around the Erhai Lake, with mountains, water, forests, and regional characteristics of ethnic minorities. The essence is basically here.
Let's have a busy time first, which was decided at the beginning. After the rain, Wang Yan and Xu Hongdou continued their trip around Dali. Taking pictures, eating food, gossiping, Xu Hongdou's face was full of smiles all day long.
Having already expressed their feelings, and eating, drinking and having fun together every day, it's impossible to have a bad relationship. Everything is so natural.
Because of Wang Yan's appearance, Xie Zhiyao stood aside. In the original drama, he basically grew up beside Xu Hongdou. But now, except for a lively meal together in the middle, he didn't appear again. Xie Zhiyao is really busy, with a lot of things to do. Without a woman to hook him, naturally there is not so much free time.
Damai is absorbing what Wang Yan wrote to her. From the daily updates, it can be seen that she is trying to change some of her original writing habits and writing ideas. The effect is not immediate, but sometimes, in terms of writing, the application of just one verb can make people applaud. Wang Yan reads Damai's novels every day and makes some suggestions on details every day.
So too, Damai looks at Wang Yan like a god. It's not that she doesn't understand, nor that she hasn't practiced. Wang Yan's guidance makes her feel that she has made great progress recently. If Wang Yan writes by herself, what kind of player would she be?
Except when she started writing novels, she has never felt so happy writing. In the past, she always got stuck when writing. Although she still got stuck now, it was still the plot, not the picture description of the plot. The design of the plot is a wild and unrestrained fantasy, which is a talent, but the picture sense of writing is a level. Of course, talent is also required, but it has not reached such a high requirement yet.
Now Damai no longer has the mind to consider whether she should continue to insist on being an online writer. She thinks about how to write a better story. This is a rare change.
It is also because of this change that Damai's mental state is getting better day by day. I got up early, practiced the complex version of Zhen Ba Duan Jin, and had breakfast with Wang Yan and others. After that, I wrote, thought, and read in the wing room, in the yard, or on the high platform upstairs where I could see a lot of scenery. I felt a bit out of this world. In Ma Qiushan's nonsense words, I had entered the Tao.
Although it was nonsense, it was actually true to a certain extent. After all, Da Mai had found her Tao and was working hard for it. From the perspective of the process of life, she had entered the Tao. In time, she would be financially independent through writing, and that would be Tao.
Ma Qiushan didn't meditate now, and he got up very late in the morning. He didn't go out much on weekdays. He was always working on project plans and researching formulas. Just like in the original drama, he bought all kinds of raw materials, found familiar people in the village to make tea for others, and asked others to give him scores.
This also gave me a new spirit and was very motivated.
Hu Youyu said before that he wanted to be famous, but Wang Yan poured cold water on him. But the next day, when he updated the video again, it was really bad, and it returned to the previous level of only a few hundred likes. Although he had expected it, when it really happened, Hu Youyu was still worried for two days, the gap was too big.
After adapting to this gap and healing himself, Hu Youyu started to do live broadcasting steadily, pulling his hair and editing videos with great effort. For most people, this is also a long-term accumulation. How many people are popular?
So as time went by, on the one hand, he edited videos steadily and updated them every day, and on the other hand, he sang live for more than three hours every day. He accumulated some fans little by little, mostly female fans, and the number of online people in the live broadcast room also exceeded the 100 mark, and the number of followers was also steadily increasing.
This is actually not easy. You know, just outside the bar where Hu Youyu sang, not far from the Erhai Lake, there were a lot of people singing, all with mobile phone holders, singing and dancing. Not to mention making money, if you don’t do it well, you have to pay a little, which is quite miserable.
In comparison, Hu Youyu has a job in the bar, and live broadcasting is a part-time job, which is already very good. This kind of thing is the happiness of comparison.
As for Nana, a real internet celebrity whose live broadcast has six or seven thousand people watching, she is still working peacefully in Youfeng Restaurant, day after day...
Finally, after almost walking around Dali, a week has passed.
Xu Hongdou has almost adapted to her current life. In addition, she walks a long way every day. Although her body is still sub-healthy, she is also energetic. In the morning, she also starts to practice Zhen Ba Duan Jin with Damai. Overall, her body has improved a little, and her mental state is also very good. She goes to bed and gets up early every day.
She practiced with Damai, swinging her arms and kicking her legs. After washing her face, she washed two cucumbers and gave one to Damai. The two of them started to eat them.
She leaned on the kitchen island and watched Wang Yan making a Western breakfast. Wang Yan wanted to change his taste after eating enough steamed buns, fried dough sticks, noodles, wontons, etc. yesterday. He bought fruits, oatmeal, bread slices, beef, etc. yesterday and started making them this morning.
"How come you know everything?" Without waiting for Wang Yan to answer, Xu Hongdou immediately said, "I know you're going to say that it's good to have many skills."
"Look, I can answer all of them."
Looking at Xu Hongdou's reproachful eyes, Wang Yan said with a smile, "I've told you before that the most important thing in life is eating and drinking. I've always been a foodie who never tires of fine food. When I eat more, I study it myself. I've gone from not knowing how to do something to being proficient in it. It's hard for a while, but it's a lifetime of happiness."
"You're amazing, you're amazing. Compared to you, I'm just a useless person. I can't even understand how to eat." Xu Hongdou sighed, moaning for no reason.
Damai nodded fiercely: "Me too, me too. Teacher Wang, knowing you is the happiest thing in my life."
Um?
Xu Hongdou silently glanced at the silly girl who was eating cucumbers happily, and then set her eyes on Wang Yan.
How could her movements escape Wang's observation? With this performance, there is no doubt that the past half month was not in vain, and she had obviously had different thoughts.
Wang Yan shook his head and said with a smile: "I asked you to say this. There are many things that make you happy. When you were a child, you got double hundred in the exam, you were praised by the teacher, your parents bought you the clothes you like, and you gave you lucky money during the New Year. The secret love, the first boyfriend, there are too many, and the happiness you felt at that time was also unparalleled. If you want to describe it, these things are probably the "happiest things in your life so far."
Damai thought seriously for a while, as if she was really recalling the joy of those previous scenes. She nodded: "Teacher Wang, you are right."
Only then did Xu Hongdou laugh: "Damai is straightforward. Isn't it the same when you write novels?"
"It's different. When I write a novel, I work hard to come up with the words, and how others react after listening to it will be whatever I write. As long as it's not too far away from reality and is logical, then there's no problem. But reality is not the same. Just like that, interpersonal communication is too complicated, really too complicated." Damai ate the cucumber in pain.
"Actually, it's not bad. The people in our courtyard are all good." Xu Hongdou said, then asked Wang Yan, "Teacher Wang, what are you doing today?"
"I promised to make a promotional video for Yunmiao Village before. Mr. Xie already refunded my room fee. We also ate ham, mushrooms, beef and so on. We've almost done our sightseeing in Dali, and it's time to give it to others. You’re working, right? What, you don’t know what you’re doing?”
"A little bit?"
Xu Hongdou ate the cucumber one bite at a time, tapping her toes on the ground. She said: "We have been going out to play every day for the past half month. Every day has been so fulfilling, and we are still very tired. Suddenly I said it's okay. I'm still I really don’t know what to do.”
"I remember when we first met, you said you wanted to find a place where no one knew you, and just lay there without thinking or doing anything. Now your idea has come true. The platform at the door of your room is very nice. The weather is sunny again today, and the sun is just right. It’s great to bask in the sun, enjoy the cool breeze, and enjoy the beautiful scenery.”
Xu Hongdou rolled his eyes and said nothing.
Wang Yan smiled and said: "How about you go to Youfeng Restaurant for a while? Or become a guinea pig for Mr. Ma and try the tea he developed? How about you come with me to shoot a video?"
"Along with you? Won't I disturb you?"
"What's the point of disturbing it? It's just boring, going back and forth to find the angle, the light, and the picture. Moreover, it's all the same scenery we've seen before. It's not interesting."
"I don't have much interest in it at first, so I'm afraid it won't be even more interesting? Let's go and see it with you?"
"Let's go." Wang Yan smiled and looked at Nana who walked in with a yawn, and said, "Okay, it's almost time to rest. Let's start dinner."
"Good morning, Teacher Wang. I've had breakfast again. Ah, I really had a Western breakfast today. Teacher Wang is amazing." Nana kept talking as she walked.
"You've been saying this for a week, let's use some new words tomorrow." Wang Yan waved his hand and asked them to get something from the table.
Each person had a vegetable sandwich, a steak, a bowl of oatmeal, and a glass of banana milk, and he had a double portion.
"The most sincere thanks are silent, but I don't say them out for fear that you won't feel it." Nana laughed, picked up the steak with chopsticks, took a bite, nodded vigorously, "It's delicious, Teacher Wang, better than in the city." The Western pastries are much better. If you open a Western restaurant, you will never get business from them. "
Nana is a Shanghainese and an Internet celebrity. She is a rich person who earns tens of thousands a day. It is inevitable that she prefers Western food...
Wang Yan waved his hand: "Okay, it's not like I didn't pay. Speaking of which, you still invited me to eat."
They are all very particular people, and they would eat breakfast brought by Wang Yan and occasionally eat snacks brought back by Wang Yan. They were embarrassed because the money they gave them was too much. Even for today's breakfast, Ma Qiushan and Hu Youyu, who were still awake, paid for it. It's roughly equivalent to Wang Yan being the cook and taking care of the food...
There is nothing we can do about it. You can buy steamed buns, fried dough sticks, tofu curd and other things here in Yunmiao Village, which is very good. After all, every household makes their own breakfast.
But Wang Yan is also lazy. He doesn't like to make Chinese breakfast because it is more time-consuming. It is probably easier to cook porridge and noodles, but other things are more laborious, and many of them are delicate pastry tasks. In this regard, the advantages of Western food are reflected, simple, convenient, fast...
After praising Master Wang's excellent craftsmanship, Nana asked, "What are your plans for today?"
"Wang Yan is going to shoot a promotional video for Yunmiao Village for Mr. Xie. There's no point in me staying here, so I'll go take a look with him."
Nana looked at Hongdou, thought for a while and said: "If you are not interested, why not go to the small restaurant, which is actually quite fulfilling. Look at me, don't I have a lot of fun? And, I can also teach you how to grind coffee by hand. , teach you how to make various juices, and we can also develop new desserts together, which is very interesting. "
Xu Hongdou smiled and said, "You really don't hide it at all. You just want me to do hard labor for free."
"How can I let you work for nothing and give you food? What do you think? Are you going or not? You're going to stay there anyway. One or two days is fine, but you'll go crazy after ten or eight days, believe me."
Nana has quite a lot of experience in this regard. After all, she was blacklisted by the whole network before, and she was locked up at home for a long time, and she was completely exhausted.
Xu Hongdou thought for a moment, glanced at Wang Yan who didn't say anything, nodded and said, "Let's talk about it in two days. I'm not in a hurry to leave anyway."
Halfway through the meal, Xie Zhiyao walked in: "Let's eat, comrades."
"Has Mr. Xie eaten? There are two more servings."
"I have eaten. Wow, it's a really rich meal, and it's Western food. I don't have to guess, is this made by Teacher Wang?"
Nana nodded: "Of course, when Teacher Wang and Hongdou didn't come, how could we have a decent breakfast? Really not? Teacher Wang's cooking skills are very good, very authentic."
"It's really delicious, a whole bowl of rice noodles." Xie Zhiyao gestured to the size of the bowl. Xiao, looking at Wang Yan, said, "Teacher Wang, when do we start work? We have some ideas to tell you about the shooting."
"After dinner."
"It's 7:30 now, we'll go to work at 8 o'clock. OK, Teacher Wang, I won't bother you any more. After dinner, you can go directly to the horse farm. Then we can determine the shooting plan together."
"Okay." Wang Yan nodded and sighed, "I heard that your brother ran away from home? Have you found him?"
"Hey, a little kid without independence, where can he run? I know. Let's go, Teacher Wang, see you at the horse farm." Xie Zhiyao came suddenly and left decisively.
Wang Yan actually sent a message to Xie Zhiyao in the morning, but did not receive a reply. Unexpectedly, Xie Zhiyao came directly. It is estimated that he did not have breakfast.
As for Xie Zhiyao's younger brother, because the news of him pooping his pants in public at school spread in the village, he felt ashamed to face the people of Jiangdong, just like in the original drama, he ran to the city to work.
But this time there was no Xu Hongdou. She had only had a few contacts with Xie Zhiyao, and had never met Xie Zhiyao's grandmother. She had never accidentally heard the conversation between the two brothers before, and there would be no farce of taking Xie Zhiyao's grandmother to the restaurant where Xie Zhiyao's brother Xie Zhiyuan worked to arrest people.
Wang Yan's arrival made the plot, which was not new, less interesting, but there is no doubt that this is a good thing. After all, those things are all to connect Xu Hongdou and Xie Zhiyao.
In addition, Xie Xiaochun's younger brother no longer worked in the woodcarving workshop and ran away to Shanghai. It is normal for young people to yearn for the outside world and wealth. Not surprisingly, he should be being deceived at this moment...
After breakfast, Wang Yan went back to the house to get his equipment, took Xu Hongdou to the village entrance, and drove to the horse farm in the south of the village.
This place is good for no reason. It feels very good to drive on the grass. It wasn't a long way to go, and even if the four wheels drove slowly, they arrived at the place quickly.
Here, Wang Yan was warmly welcomed. In addition to Xie Zhiyao's team, Huang Xinxin was also present. They were still a little surprised to see Xu Hongdou. Xie Zhiyao politely said, "Hongdou is here too, welcome, welcome", and Xu Hongdou said, "Come with Teacher Wang to see it."
After everyone introduced themselves to each other, each of them had a cup of hot tea, sat around a table, and began a discussion on shooting a promotional video.
As soon as they sat down, Xie Zhiyao got straight to the point: "Teacher Wang, you can shoot movies, and you can shoot wedding videos like movies, so we may want more."
Although they had not met many times, he still had some understanding of Wang Yan, that is, Wang Yan did not like to be polite, so he said what he wanted.
Wang Yan nodded: "No problem, I told you before, you can shoot whatever you want, you have nothing to do. And it's not very difficult, short videos are cut from long videos, and long videos are made up of countless short videos, it's not a big problem, just continue."
Huang Xinxin asked: "Teacher Wang, is it really not troublesome?"
"Why would I lie to you? It depends on what kind of long video you want to shoot, is it a simple scenery, characteristics, post-dubbing, or a love story of Yunmiao Village. If it's the former, then it's the same as what I said, if It's the latter. Although the materials overlap, most of them still need to be re-shot. As for photography, shooting is one aspect, and editing and rendering are another. "
"Then we just want to shoot normal scenery and feature videos, similar to the documentary "A Bite of China". As for shooting stories, we have thought about it before, but we don't have a good script and actors with enough acting skills. If we really shoot a love story in Yunmiao Village, I'm afraid the spit of netizens will drown us. "
As Xie Zhiyao was talking, a group of people laughed out loud. They thought of that picture, which should be very eye-catching.
Wang Yan was also laughing: "Black and red are also red, the entertainment spirit of netizens is still good, and their ability to create memes is obvious to all. There are always people who want to come and see it. "
"That won't do. We want to create a name card for Yunmiao Village, which means a positive image. We can't have this kind of reputation." Xie Zhiyao waved his hands and said, "We have already planned what we want to shoot. This is a PPT we made with some old photos. The general idea is here. As for the specific number of videos of different lengths, we don't have an accurate number yet. After all, we don't understand the difficulty of this matter, and you are helping us out in friendship, so we can't be too hard."
"Let me put it this way. The whole film is two hours long, and we have to shoot several times more material than this, so this is a matter of editing. Just change the editing back and forth, it's not a big problem. The operation of editing is not difficult, and it's quick to get started. It's just that you need to spend some effort to master it, but for you, the entry level is enough. When the time comes, all the materials shot will be given to you, and you can edit them for fun. You can edit them however you want, and as many as you want."
"Then I have an idea, Teacher Wang, you take a look at PPT first, and then we will discuss it..."
It is obvious that Xie Zhiyao's investment banking work is not in vain, and he acts in an orderly manner. Know what you want first, then figure out how to do it, and it is a good habit to have everything ready before blowing the east wind.
Wang Yan took the computer with a smile, and got together with Xu Hongdou to look at their plans...
