In the evening, after everyone returned to the inn, they started the meeting.
The filming of a program requires a meeting in advance to determine the theme and main line of the filming.
For example, what is the main focus?
This episode of Jiang Zhi's program will definitely focus on the traditional activity of stepping on lanterns.
But in addition to this traditional activity, there must be other content, otherwise it will be a pure documentary, and the participation of a star like Lu Yanhe will be meaningless.
Xin Zixing said, "Actually, I think He Yunlan and Liu Yiyi are very suitable for the role. They are both top students from prestigious universities, and they are also from Jiangzhi. They have good images. Today, while having dinner, their story really touched me because it is the true story of ordinary people. Moreover, they are a young couple, and their love story is very meaningful to discuss."
Lu Yanhe asked, "Sister Zixing, they are both ordinary people. Will putting their stories on the show affect or interfere with their lives?"
Xin Zixing said, "I'm going to ask their opinions on this tomorrow. If they're willing, we'll include it. If not, we'll tone it down. However, there are pros and cons. The traditional lantern-walking activity is actually related to young people's love. Showing the love story of a young couple in such a theme is very fitting and will also be more appealing to young people, making them more interested in visiting Jiangzhi. They invited us here to achieve this goal, so they may not be unwilling to do so."
From Lu Yanhe's perspective, appearing on a TV show can have a significant impact and disruption on the lives of ordinary people, and these disruptions are not good. As an entertainer, he has accepted the fact that his life will inevitably involve a loss of privacy and personal space. However, most people are willing to share their lives with others.
Although many people are not celebrities, they all have a desire to share with others and gain recognition from others.
Lu Yanhe nodded, realizing that his previous thoughts were actually a bit arrogant - whether to share this matter with everyone on the show was not up to him, it depended on the opinions of He Yunlan and Liu Yiyi.
"If they are willing, I think their stories will be liked and supported by everyone," he said.
Xin Zixing nodded and said, "If they're willing, I'd like to invite them to participate in our program. What do you think? We are outsiders, and they are locals. Recording this program together will also help us better understand the traditional lantern-walking activity and gain a deeper understanding of the city of Jiangzhi."
Lu Yanhe nodded and said, "Yeah, I think so too."
While they were having a meeting and discussing, there was a camera filming them nearby.
The content of their meeting was also filmed.
After the filming, Xin Zixing said, "Yan He, I'll give you a brief interview in an hour. Maybe it will be included in the show."
"Okay." Lu Yanhe nodded. "Then where will we do the interview later? If I don't have to go out, I'll take a shower first."
"Let's stay at this inn." Xin Zixing said, "This little courtyard is beautiful."
"good."
After the meeting, Lu Yanhe went back to his room to take a shower.
Chen Siqi had sent him several articles before, all of which were manuscripts she had commissioned.
The authors of these manuscripts are not great writers or celebrities, but some creators that Chen Siqi found on various online websites and forums, and asked them to write articles on the theme of student days.
Lu Yanhe sat by the window reading the manuscript.
There is no need to turn on the air conditioner on summer nights in Jiangzhi, the temperature is very comfortable.
The light in the room is a little dim.
He moved the floor lamp from the bedside and sat by the window to look at his laptop.
They are all prose.
These articles almost all focus on the campus and reminisce about the past youth.
Many of them are written sincerely and movingly.
However, after reading it all in one breath, Lu Yanhe felt a little aesthetically fatigued because what everyone wrote was too similar.
The authors that Chen Siqi found are actually very talented. If Lu Yanhe reads one of them individually, he will think it is very good, but when these articles are put together, Lu Yanhe feels that they are not good enough.
When he was thinking about how to tell Chen Siqi, Chen Siqi suddenly sent another message: The themes and styles of these five articles are relatively similar. We can pick one or two from them. Which one do you think is the best?
It turned out that Chen Siqi also felt that the themes and styles of these articles were quite similar. Lu Yanhe told Chen Siqi which one he liked best.
Chen Siqi: OK, we both agree, so let’s use this one.
Lu Yanhe asked: How is the book going now?
Chen Siqi said: "The first version is already made. I have some suggestions for adjustments, and Yilong is working on them. How about you? Have you arrived in Jiangzhi? I saw the photos you sent, it seems to be an old town there?"
Lu Yanhe: Yes, there are many old buildings. I quite like the feeling here.
Chen Siqi: I saw many people asking in the comment section where it was.
Lu Yanhe: Someone should have recognized me, right? Today, when we went out to eat, many locals saw us, but they didn't necessarily recognize me.
Chen Siqi: I saw in the comment section that some people already know that you are in Jiangzhi, and several people mentioned it.
Lu Yanhe: Really? So fast.
Chen Siqi: Everyone’s internet speed is very fast now.
Lu Yanhe logged into his social media and looked at the comment section. A few hours later, there were already thousands of comments under his post.
His social media does not involve any data operations, and all the data is real.
When Lu Yanhe opened the comment section, he saw that there were indeed several highly-praised replies, all about his reply to Jiang Zhi. There was also a photo of him, which was taken by someone else as he walked into the inn.
He is very clear in the photo and can be recognized as him at a glance.
One of the highly-rated comments in the comment section reads: "Lu Yanhe looks even more handsome in person than he does online! His legs are so long!"
The tone is very exaggerated.
Lu Yanhe grinned.
After a while, Xin Zixiong came knocking on the door.
"Yan He, the preparation area has been set up. Are you okay with this now?"
"I'm fine." Lu Yanhe stood up and went to open the door. "Let's go downstairs."
The preparations were made in the corner of the courtyard of the inn.
Xin Zixing used her magical powers to pull a line over and placed a floor lamp and a chair in this corner.
Lu Yanhe sat on it as instructed.
A camera was filming him.
Chen Liang and his team were managing the machines nearby.
Xin Zixing sat behind the camera.
She wasn't planning on appearing on camera during the interview.
"Am I the only one in the camera?" Lu Yanhe asked doubtfully.
The last time we filmed the Langhua chapter, Xin Zixing appeared with Lu Yanhe throughout the entire process.
Xin Zixing explained: "Because we are usually in the shot, this is your backup interview. We want to highlight your own attitude and ideas to the audience, so I will not appear on camera. Including the questions themselves, we will see whether to put the questions in according to the editing situation. It is even possible that this backup interview will only serve as an annotation to the main content, occasionally appearing in the program to make a supplement."
The program recording is linear and direct. Many actions, eyes and even expressions can easily be interpreted in multiple ways if they are not interpreted. This is understandable, but in some key positions, Xin Zixing and others still hope to give accurate expressions.
Lu Yanhe nodded.
Xin Zixing's first question was: "You fell asleep as soon as you got in the car after getting off the plane today. Were you tired yesterday?"
"Yes, I didn't sleep well last night, so I was researching information about Jiangzhi before coming here." Lu Yanhe looked at Xin Zixing seriously and nodded. "After all, this is a program about cities. Before coming here, I should do some more research so I can have a better understanding."
Xin Zixing asked, "Do you do this kind of homework before traveling to any city?"
"Not necessarily. I can make travel guides, but I don't necessarily do my homework." Lu Yanhe said with a smile, "It's because this is work, so I do my homework seriously. I don't want to appear too ignorant about some common sense things. When I go on a trip, I usually take it easy and do whatever feels good."
Xin Zixiong nodded and began to ask about what happened at the dinner table today.
"We noticed that when He Yunlan and Liu Yiyi were telling their college love stories, you listened very attentively, even a little envious. Can you share with us what you were thinking at that time?"
Lu Yanhe said: "I was a little envious, but at the time I was mainly moved by the stories they told. The love between the two of them made me feel very happy."
Xin Zixing nodded. "Tomorrow, Jiangzhi will hold its annual traditional lantern-stepping event. This event is about young people expressing their feelings. If you like someone, are you the type to take the initiative to express your feelings, or do you wait for others to express their feelings?"
Lu Yanhe looked at Xin Zixing with some surprise.
"Is there still such a question?"
Xin Zixing said: "If you feel it is inappropriate, it is okay not to answer."
Lu Yanhe thought for a moment. "It's okay. There's nothing inappropriate about it. I'm just a little surprised. I didn't expect to be asked this kind of question. Let me think about it. I don't think I'm either of those. Taking the initiative to confess your feelings depends on the right time, place, and people. Waiting for someone to confess your feelings is not the right thing to do. Everyone handles this kind of thing differently. I might be more likely to convey such signals through some daily details to see if the other person responds. In fact, when you like someone, there are often signals. It's easier to confess your feelings when it happens in love at first sight or when the relationship is not that familiar. If it's between people you already know very well, I guess it would be more difficult to speak up."
Xin Zixing was silent for a moment and said, "Yan He, when you say these words, it's easy for people to notice that you already have someone you like."
"Ah?" Lu Yanhe was stunned.
Xin Zixing said, "Because your answer is very clear, it sounds like you have a very specific crush on someone."
Lu Yanhe: “…”
He glanced at the camera bewilderedly.
Xin Zixing said, "Why don't you say it again?"
Lu Yanhe: "...What should I say again?"
Xin Zixing smiled and said, "Let's put aside all the factors like timing, location, and people, and just analyze the basic situation. Do you think you're more likely to be the one to take the initiative and confess, or are you more likely to be the one to be confessed to?"
"Take the initiative to confess." Lu Yanhe did not hesitate this time. "If I think the timing and everything are right, I will say it."
Xin Zixing concealed the smile from the corner of her mouth.
The interview lasted about half an hour.
As soon as the camera was turned off, Xin Zixing and the others looked at Lu Yanhe with ambiguous expressions.
The main thing is what Xin Zixiong said just now, "You already have someone you like."
Xin Zixing knows who the girl Lu Yanhe likes is, but no one else knows.
What surprised others the most was that Lu Yanhe did not deny Xin Zixiong's conclusive argument.
Lu Yanhe said awkwardly, "Then I'll go back to sleep."
"Okay." Xin Zixing said, "We have to leave at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning. Xiao Mei found a rice noodle shop. We will go there to shoot the breakfast scene tomorrow morning."
"Okay." Lu Yanhe nodded.
He hurried back to his room.
Under the gazes of those people just now, Lu Yanhe was so embarrassed that he didn't know what to say. He wanted to dig a hole and bury himself in it.
I went back to the room, picked up my charging phone and saw a message from Peng Zhixing: Yan He, the episode you recorded will be broadcast this Friday at noon. We have already released a trailer for our program. Please take the time to forward it and promote it.
Lu Yanhe quickly replied: OK.
"The Journey" is finally going to be broadcast.
-
I had a very comfortable sleep.
Lu Yanhe has no habit of being particular about his bed. He can sleep well anywhere. As long as the environment is suitable, he can sleep soundly.
He woke up early in the morning and went downstairs for a morning run.
The sun is shining.
During this period, he has been exercising regularly for "Phoenix TV" to make his body more muscular.
When he came back from his morning run, he happened to see Chen Liang and Xu Chao shooting some empty shot footage.
"Brother Liang, you started filming so early?" Lu Yanhe's cheeks were red and he was sweating.
Chen Liang immediately turned the camera lens towards Lu Yanhe.
"Well, let's get some footage. Did you just finish running?"
"Yeah." Lu Yanhe nodded, "I'll go up and rush first."
"Okay." Chen Liang nodded.
He kept filming Lu Yanhe until he went upstairs before he stopped.
Xu Chao was still a little confused and asked, "Brother Liang, why did you take that shot just now?"
Chen Liang said, "When shooting a film like this, the more footage the better. You can never have too much. When you're editing, you never know what you're going to get. If you don't have the right footage, you can only use subtitles and other means to make the content coherent. Besides, Lu Yanhe is the only guest on our show, so more footage of him never hurts."
