After a little hiccup, Zhong Man successfully boarded the subway to the suburban airport and began a nearly two-hour reverse journey.
Actually, Tian Qi is right about one thing. Compared with the land transportation in the city, Xiacheng's subway is really not very developed.
The most important reason for this situation is, of course, that the multi-layer transportation construction from the ground to the sky in the superconducting era has advantages over the subway that requires underground operations in terms of planning, construction, adjustment and other costs.
Another category that cannot be ignored is safety factors.
The urban construction of Xiacheng must consider the factors of aberrant invasion. Therefore, the transformation of underground rock formations and water bodies is very cautious, and safety zones have been set up in many weak areas, making it difficult for the subway lines to have room to extend.
In the early days of the city's founding, there were many aberrant invasions and killings, which also left a bad impression of "high risk" on the residents of Xiacheng when traveling on the subway.
In recent years, as human society's counterattack on the wilderness has basically taken shape, the safety accident rate of Xiacheng Metro has continued to decline, but it is still one of the last travel options.
The fewer people choose, the less motivation the municipal government has to upgrade and transform. This also makes the subway infrastructure remain the same for many years, with basically no changes.
Zhong Man also doesn't like taking the subway. The line that was supposed to be a long-distance connection has become fragmented due to the existence of the safety zone, and transfers are quite frequent.
The only advantage is that it is cheap, which is most suitable for Zhong Man who currently has three months' salary in advance and his savings are basically cleared.
In addition, a hidden benefit is that most of the time, it is not crowded, but the dilapidated carriages are a bit crowded...
However, this time, as soon as he got on the subway, Zhong Man felt extremely stressed.
Today is Thursday, a working day, but you can see dots of young people who look like middle school students on the subway, mostly women, and some of them are carrying support signs... The closer you get to the airport, the density of these young people increases.
The more exaggerated it is.
Hey, she is a new teacher who joined the job before the summer vacation and has no teaching tasks. Now it is the exam season, so she can be excused for taking a day off. But do students nowadays not even care about the final exam?
Seeing this posture, Zhong Man was really worried that the shooting spot she had reserved would be resold by a profit-driven shop owner to other big investors.
When he thought of this, Zhong Man couldn't sit still. He called the other party and confirmed the situation. Once he went around in circles, he had to talk more. During this period, messages from other channels continued to be sent, but they were not highlighted.
Zhong Man has no time to pay attention to people and events.
It wasn't until she started transferring trains for the first time and ended the communication on her own initiative that she had the time to read the messages.
As expected, there is quite a bit of cumin noodles in it, which is nothing more than a plea for help... huh?
Ten minutes ago, the subject of the message sent by Zimin Mian'er suddenly changed. Especially in the private message on the forum, it was obvious that paid items were used, the highlight was shaking, and it was obviously sent in groups:
"Go and see! Go and see! The lady is finally open for business!"
Zhong Man curled his lips, the stupid bitch just couldn't speak.
The Magic Eye Girl has neither signed a contract with any company nor has a social account. She has no action at all and has zero interaction. What kind of business does she operate?
I'm afraid either a new picture has been released, or someone has secretly filmed a video or something...
The little girl Ziren Mian'er looks childish, but she likes to use this century-old joke. I remember she once said in a post that she was from the satellite city, and Zhong Man really believed it.
Of course, the most important thing is that as a demi-dimensional administrator, you shouted before that "Miss Ruiwen is definitely not hyped" and fought with others in a blinding manner. Now if you say this, isn't it true?
Zhong Man shook his head at Cumin Mian'er's seriously unprofessional behavior, and then looked at the message she sent, and there was a link attached.
The same thing happened in the follow-up private message "It looks good, it looks good, it looks good" a few minutes later.
Zhong Man hesitated whether to waste time and take a second look.
At this moment, a new private message popped up, and Cumin Mian'er was so excited that she wished she could jump out of the words and exclamation marks that were about to lose logic:
"It's you, it's you! From this angle, it's you, but you're so far away! Ahhhhh, I'm so envious, sister, you're in the frame!!!!"
"Why?"
Before Zhong Man could react, another private message from the same source popped up. This time there was no text, just a picture.
It was obviously cut from a video, but it was clear enough. In the far-end picture, a tall and thin woman standing on the commuter station platform looked directly at the camera, with one hand still clasped beside her ear...
Well, isn't this the same me who was taking pictures of the Demon Eye Girl this morning!
Zhong Man was a little confused. After a few seconds, she suddenly thought of her feelings and suspicions about the possible presence of other photographers when she took the photo in the morning.
That Ruiwen, has she really started her business?
Her photographer even took a picture of me?
Is this hype or...who cares?
Regarding himself, Zhong Man no longer hesitated. He clicked on the link in Cumin Mian'er's private message, and the next moment he jumped to a very mainstream social platform:
ZM.
This is an old social media that has existed since the beginning of the century. It has spanned three wars, divisions and mergers in the past century, multiple acquisitions and counter-acquisitions, business integrations and divestitures, and major rebirth-like changes, even to the core.
The brand name has been changed several times, like a stitched monster that has lost its original form, but it has stumbled and survived to this day.
People in the industry like Zhong Man affectionately called it "scumbag" in the early years, and some called it "cinder" on the other hand, which meant that quite a few people in it were scumbag men and scumbag women, and they formed their own circles.
Each holds a position (each depends on the financial owner) and criticizes each other.
Due to its highly provocative nature, some celebrities and some official media like to open accounts on it, which can easily attract firepower, create topics, and cause influence.
Coupled with the blessing of historical status, authority is also there.
However, the officially certified account opened in front of Zhong Man at this time, is the direction a little off?
Before opening the link, Zhong Man already had some expectations and judgments based on her rich experience and the screenshot of the video. She thought she would see the official account of Mingtang Culture, which at best was a "tool" with its own media hotspot capabilities.
"", announced the news of Magic Eye Girl's signing and debut, and released promotional materials...
But now, what was presented to her was completely different from what she expected.
"The Summer City Chapter of the Wilderness Explorers Association..."
What the hell is this?
With full of doubts, Zhong Man quickly glanced at the pinned messages displayed on the account page. The information flow was completely different from the circle she was accustomed to. Although the total amount was not large, it also constituted considerable pressure to absorb. For example,
:
What you need to know when registering for wilderness summer hunting;
Entrance for review of pioneer certificate;
Revised version of coastal vegetation distribution on the peninsula (latest);
Notice on the change of migration direction of the aberrant population in Huanmeng Mountain...
The question from a few seconds ago popped up again:
What the hell is this?
Zhong Man, who is already considered the third generation after the war, is actually a bit desensitized to the wilderness. She only needs to get enough simplified and cleaned wilderness information from daily news to splice together a rough outline.
But now she couldn't distinguish between true and false, but the level of information suddenly deepened, making her feel that her IQ had suddenly dropped, which was quite uncomfortable.
Also, with this account, do you post videos without any description?
What does it mean to leave it bare?
Fortunately, at this time, the video information on the account had started to play automatically. Zhong Man watched through retinal mapping, and there was an immersion mode to choose from. All she had to do was close her eyes... But now she was on the subway, with a huge suitcase at her feet.
, which contained her wealth and life, so she never dared to do this, so she only turned on the split-screen projection.
The viewing window went dark at first, and soon the light came on.
The faint light draws out the outline layer by layer. Even though it is an entity that has already existed in the darkness, there is also a strange aesthetic feeling under the rendering of this light and shadow technology.
It took a full 5 seconds for Zhong Man to confirm that this was a neat-looking room.
not bad!
Photographers and post-production are all available.
Similar to the wide format of traditional movies, exposure and color grading are very restrained. Although this kind of "blockbuster" design is actually bad, and it is nothing without content, it at least gives people a relatively "high-end feeling"
.
Zhong Man unconsciously looked at it from a professional perspective.
But why is the lens so low? The angle is also quite strange.
Also, is it too quiet?
No background music?
At this time, a message popped up on the personal brain. Since the priority was not high, Zhong Man pressed it casually.
In the video, there is clearly a knock on the door.
"Riven?"
Someone was saying hello, and his voice was a little hoarse, but it wasn't the voice of an adult who smokes or drinks. It had a bit of a physiological immaturity in the voice-changing stage, which made Zhong Man think that this person was probably not very old.
The camera image clearly moved upward, with slight sideways movement and shaking. Through the language of the camera, Zhong Man immediately realized that this was a shooting method that imitated the first-person perspective. It represented the protagonist getting up...
The position is still too low, not from a supine perspective, but rather like... on the floor?
Due to the noisy environment on the subway, Zhong Man actually didn't look too closely. But as a photographer, she was naturally able to absorb enough information from the video. Moreover, from a performance perspective, the details presented in the video are quite user-friendly.
.
The noise on the subway drowned out most of the background sound of the video. The full light and gently swinging curtains proved that the homeowner did not close the window...
This leads to a question:
Although it was summer, did you just spend the night on the floor like this?
Zhong Man wasn't sure whether her logic was correct, it was just a fleeting thought.
At this time in the video, the homeowner got up and walked through the room, allowing the audience to see more details.
The room was very simple, so simple that it was almost impossible to tell whether the occupants were male, female, old, or young. Zhong Man seemed to see a floor-to-ceiling mirror in the corner, and a guitar next to it... that was the only thing he could see.
It's brighter.
It was in the floor-to-ceiling mirror that a figure flashed past. It should be the homeowner himself, but Zhong Man didn't see it clearly.
A few seconds later, the homeowner opened the door, and a young man who didn't look too old stood outside the door, but he matched the duck's voice that still had a voice-changing stage.
This is the first character to officially appear in the film so far.
