Su Yan stood at the entrance of the village. The sun was setting at this time, and the small village under the afterglow was quiet and relaxing.
Dozens of families were scattered on both sides of the creek, with smoke rising from their kitchen stoves, and from time to time, dogs barking and calls for children could be heard.
Wang Yangyang took a breath: "It's so comfortable, as if I'm back in the countryside, the air is full of earthy smell."
"This is the countryside, do you smell cow dung?" Su Yan said with a smile.
I am used to staying in the city, and suddenly I came to this paradise-like countryside. It really felt amazing, everything looked so beautiful.
Xiaopang consciously picked up the camera and kept pressing the shutter button. The two of them walked towards a large tile-roofed house with a private courtyard halfway up the mountain.
During this period, there were also children who were barefoot and wearing crotchless pants with their little sparrows exposed. The wide-eyed children looked at the two of them curiously. Wang Yangyang took out the candy and handed it over, but shyly hid behind his mother.
Old Li, the owner of the tile house, had been waiting at the door for a long time. After seeing them, a simple smile appeared on his weather-beaten face.
"Come on, the meal has been prepared a long time ago and is waiting for you."
Su Yan said hello and handed over the gift he was carrying.
"I can't do it, I can't do it!" Old Man Li said, rubbing his trouser legs with both hands.
"It's a little thought, it's not something valuable, so just take it." After Su Yan entered the house, he directly put the supplement in his hand on the table: "I happen to be hungry, auntie, I'm tired today."
"Sit down, sit down, we two old people usually eat together, you just happen to be our companions."
"You are so polite." Su Yan looked at the table full of dishes.
"I grow my own vegetables and raise chickens in the back. I'm afraid you won't be able to eat them, so I went to town early in the morning and cut some lean meat back."
This made Su Yan and the others feel flattered and stressed. They stuffed it into their mouths with big mouthfuls while eating. The two old people looked really happy.
After the meal, the four of them sat in the small courtyard. It was not completely dark yet, and they could already see a few stars. The sound of crickets could be heard in the grass around them.
"Director Su, you can use the house whenever you need it. I have told the child that I just happened to go over to help take care of the grandson.
Here, you can do whatever you want, as long as you don’t demolish the house. You can eat the chickens, ducks, etc. raised in the backyard as you like. The vegetables are also there. I have asked the neighbors to take care of the cows."
The old man stood up and pointed not far away: "The fish pond by the river is also mine. The seedlings planted at the beginning of the year are estimated to be two kilograms in size. There is also a corn field below."
Wang Yangyang consoled him: "Don't worry, we are just renting it for two months to record the show, and we promise not to cause any damage."
"Okay, I also mentioned it to the village party secretary. He will come back to say hello in a while."
Su Yan's trip was to choose a location for the new show. He had actually been to this small village before because his grandma's house was nearby.
The moment it was decided to film, it became the first choice. Mr. Li met Su Yan for the first time at the beginning of the year. When he suggested that he might use his house to film the show, he didn't take it seriously.
But after a while, the other party called again and said it would be 5,000 yuan a month for up to three months. He also contacted his children in the city and sent the contract.
I was still thinking that the people in the city were a bit strange, but I happily agreed.
Su Yan only arrived in the evening because he stopped by to see his grandma and have a meal there.
The old man knew that his eldest grandson would come over often in the next period of time, but he was very happy. If the grandson did not agree to rent the house, he planned to come over in person.
The conversation with the village party secretary was also very pleasant. The other person is a middle-aged man in his forties who has attended college and knows a lot. He said that he would fully cooperate with the crew in filming.
It was less than ten o'clock, and there were almost no lights in the village. The branch secretary also took his leave. The two of them lay in the room that Lao Li had packed and turned off the lights.
The starlight shines through the window, casting a beautiful white color, and the breeze blows gently, accompanied by the chirping of various insects, which makes people extremely relaxed.
I don't know when, they all fell asleep.
Early the next morning, I was woken up by the crowing of a rooster. I was exercising in the yard and saw people working in the fields.
After enjoying the porridge and side dishes, taking Wang Yangyang around the village and taking countless photos, he declined the kind invitation from Mr. and Mrs. Li to have lunch and hurried back to the Magic City.
Huang Lei also received good news here. Several sponsors have been negotiated. Tencent Video only saw the plan and planned to purchase it.
It's just that Qinghe is still considering whether to go to the stars.
Because the new show is a bit special, in Su Yan's words it is a slow variety show, without the basic competition and collision, and only shoots life in the countryside.
After reading the planning, Huang Lei felt that it was an adult's play house, which could show one side of a star's life and be interesting to watch, but whether it would be accepted by the audience would depend on Su Yan's filming results.
As for the host, it is expected to be 3+n or 4+n, with a fixed number of 3 to 4 people and guests.
Huang Lei and Xiao Nanyuan each occupied a position. Tyrol was interested, but he had to go to Europe to film a movie and the time didn't match up.
In the plan, Su Yan would prefer "Three Meals Every Day" rather than "The Longing for Life".
Auntie Cha and Haizhen are paired with a cute little brother. You can watch an episode happily without any guests.
Under Ruizhen's "training", Yu Fool went from knowing nothing to being a good cook, which is also very exciting.
There is not much that the program can really learn from, and the most important thing is to rely on the host.
Of course, Teacher Huang Lei has no problem. Finding someone who can match him is the key.
But don’t be in a hurry, just shoot a few people first to make preparations, and the last episode of the first season, Running Man, has not yet been filmed.
If the ratings are good, the members will be happy, the company behind them will be happier, the cooperation will be higher, and the filming will speed up.
Not only that, many satellite TV stations have contacted Qinghe and started to care about when the next season will be filmed. Naturally, Wanbei is also concerned and has repeatedly requested that they be given priority.
No one on the host side wanted to quit. Instead, many celebrities' agents came to inquire whether they could replace them or reduce the price.
Can't change?
Can I add it?
There are some big names among them.
Several members who were not part of Qinghe naturally also knew the news. The contracts they signed were for one season, which brought far more exposure than expected. Naturally, they wanted to retain their positions.
So whenever I have nothing to do, I will send Su Yan a WeChat message, make a phone call, etc. Occasionally, I will send a message on Weibo, and I will also bring the running man with me.
Show your loyalty and sincerity to the maximum extent possible.
In the end, Su Yan couldn't bear the harassment. Too many people he didn't know called him, so after discussing with Huang Lei, he made an official announcement directly.
"In the short term, "Run!" will not release a second season for the time being, but Qinghe Entertainment is still taking action."
