Chapter 332: The choice to go back on one's word
After a few brief conversations, Lu Yanhe knew why Zhou Shuyu and Qiu Ling came here.
Zhou Shuyu is a professor in the History Department of Yuming University and has always been interested in these places of interest.
This time, Qiu Ling was rarely able to take a vacation, so the two of them discussed going out for a walk together.
It happened that Qiuling had always wanted to come to the desert, so after the two of them came to Shangjing, Zhou Shuyu heard that there was an old temple with a history of five hundred years here, so he came to take a look.
Meeting Zhou Shuyu gave Lu Yanhe a huge surprise.
Because Zhou Shuyu can tell you some of the origins of this temple and analyze the stories recorded on the stone tablets with you.
The reason why many people don’t like to visit museums and historical sites is not because they really don’t like it, but because they actually can’t understand it.
Lu Yanhe himself had only a partial understanding of it, but in the end, Zhou Shuyu explained and chatted at the same time.
It took more than an hour to visit a relatively small ancient temple.
This ancient temple records a story with a hint of A Chinese Ghost Story - of course, people in this world only know Xiaoqian in "Liao Zhai", but they don't know about "A Chinese Ghost Story" which has touched generations of people.
“It is said that a monk named Liansheng once took in an injured white fox in this temple. However, after the white fox recovered from its injury, it ate the monk and left an orphan living in the green lantern. In order to avenge the monk, Hun sacrificed his spiritual practice, transformed into a fox, and pretended to be close to the white fox."
"However, after seeing the white fox, he was awakened by the memory of his previous life. Just a white one The fox was killed by the monk, and the wandering soul was detained. In the name of shelter, the wandering soul was allowed to accumulate cultivation in the green lantern. If it accumulated to a certain level, it would eat them. "
"The injured white fox. This is the incarnation of Buddha, coming here to kill this Demonic Monk."
After hearing this story, Lu Yanhe said with a smile: "The temple records such a story. Do you want to say that the Buddha appears, or that there are demons in the monks?"
Zhou Shuyu said: "It is rare to see a negative image of a monk in a temple."
Qiu Ling: "Isn't that because there is also a Buddha who holds a staff to destroy demons? The Buddha only needs to be positive. ”
Zhou Shuyu smiled.
A few people were talking and laughing.
Xin Zixing and others who had been following behind heard the content of their chat and listened very carefully.
Lu Yanhe also told Xin Zixing, "Your "City Travels" program can actually invite professors to participate in the program. The things they talk about are much richer than what we can learn from just a quick glance."
Xin Zixing also He nodded and said: "I have seen it this time. Indeed, let's go back and study it carefully."
A documentary like "City Travels" is destined to be impossible to become a documentary if a miraculous and small-probability event does not happen. This is a hot item that has become popular among the people. However, it also has its audience. Yemai.com wants to make it into a documentary series with characteristics and loyal fans, with a low cost and great long-term benefits.
So far, Lu Yanhe’s remuneration for recording this program has been much higher than at the beginning, but after all, it is not a commercial-oriented program, and the cost of one episode is far lower than his remuneration for recording other programs. . This is one of the reasons why although the top management of Yemai.com has asked Xin Zixing and others from time to time to weaken Lu Yanhe's influence on the show, Xin Zixing has always refused.
Xin Zixing understands very well that this documentary that unexpectedly gained a foothold relies heavily on Lu Yanhe. The emergence of this documentary was accidental from the beginning, and its popularity in niche circles initially relied on Lu Yanhe's popularity. Now, because of the humanistic nature of this program, it is extremely popular among people who like this kind of documentary, but this group of people also has a lot of overlap with people who like Lu Yanhe. In fact, many people like Lu Yanhe and "City Travels" mutually. Without Lu Yanhe, they may not like "City Travels", and without "City Travels", they may not like Lu Yanhe. However, the problem now is that Lu Yanhe can do without "City Travels", but "City Travels" cannot do without Lu Yanhe.
In the episodes without Lu Yanhe's participation, the broadcast volume and the program's word-of-mouth feedback were obviously insufficient.
In fact, according to their market research, the reason is not complicated. People are not used to other people. I am used to watching Lu Yanhe explore all kinds of interesting places in the city with everyone in this program, and when there is comparison, there will be gaps. If you want to find another young artist with knowledge, culture, temperament and charisma like Lu Yanhe, it is almost impossible to find one.
In the words of a fan of "City Travels", Lu Yanhe's performance on the show makes everyone really believe that he likes to explore old bookstores, old buildings and other places in the city, rather than the kind of Pretended pandering.
This is actually the most difficult.
Xin Zixing also knows that if the program "City Travel" wants to continue for a long time, it must be inseparable from Lu Yanhe at this stage.
Of course she knew that it would be disturbing to join Lu Yanhe and his friends so hastily.
However, "City Travels" is her job and her cherished work. Even if it disturbs others, for the sake of "City Travels", Xin Zixin must take the initiative to fight for such shooting opportunities.

After visiting this ancient temple, Lu Yanhe and Linyu had lunch with Zhou Shuyu and Qiuling.
After Zhou Shuyu heard that several of his high school classmates had made an appointment to go into the desert together, he was surprised and said, "It has been so long since you graduated from high school and you still maintain such close contact?"
< br>
Lu Yanhe nodded and said, "Yes."
He thought to himself that they didn't get together so frequently when they were in high school. Apart from hanging out with Li Pengfei every day, he only chatted with others occasionally. However, after graduation, everyone strengthened their connection through the magazine "Jump Up".
Qiu Ling obviously knew this situation.
She said to Zhou Shuyu: "You don't know, right? Those high school classmates of Lu Yanhe are the core team members of the magazine he published "Jump Up"."
Hearing this, Zhou Shuyu revealed his A look of surprise.
"You are core team members? Didn't your magazine come out with the help of the publishing house?"
Lu Yanhe smiled.
Linyu said: "To be precise, the content of the first issue was entirely produced by Lu Yanhe and Chen Siqi, plus an artist responsible for layout design and typesetting. The three people created the first issue. , we joined later, this magazine is not the editor-in-chief in name only Lu Yanhe, he is really in charge of this magazine."
Zhou Shuyu was amazed, "I thought this was all about publishing. Some of the club's promotional methods, after all, it sounds a bit exaggerated for a few high school students to be the core members of such a popular magazine."
"These young people are very powerful." Qiu Lingyi. He held his chin with his hand and said, "I watched these people do a lot of things from scratch. I was shocked again and again before, but now I'm not shocked at all. I'm used to it."
There was a calm smile on her face.
At this time, Li Pengfei came.
He came directly to the hotel with his suitcase.
"Ah, I'm so hungry! Is the food served? I want to fuck him for several bowls of rice!" He shouted as soon as he entered the box, and was frightened by the other two people who came out of the box. With a jump, the voices stopped abruptly.
"Uh...Officer Qiu?" Li Pengfei looked at Qiu Ling with some surprise, "You, you——"
"An encounter." Qiu Ling said with a smile, "You didn't expect it, right?"
"I didn't expect it." Li Pengfei shook his head.
He sat down "reservedly" and winked at Lu Yanhe, implying that Lu Yanhe didn't tell him in advance.
Lu Yanhe smiled and said nothing.
He was embarrassed to admit that he had forgotten.
However, it is true that I am hungry. Li Pengfei was a little embarrassed at first, but after a while he started to eat freely.
"I'm so hungry." He apologized while eating, "It looks a bit ugly, I'm sorry."
When Lu Yanhe heard what Li Pengfei said, he frowned for a moment. From Linyu putting on a mask to Li Pengfei subconsciously saying "I'm sorry", Lu Yanhe suddenly felt very uncomfortable - although everyone said they were willing to appear on camera and didn't care about the recording of "City Travels", this matter was obviously still It affected their originally relaxed and free mood on this trip.
What he originally thought would be the best of both worlds did not happen.
Lu Yanhe realized that he was preconceivedly accustomed to the existence of the camera and could be himself in front of the camera without pretending. However, Li Pengfei and Lin Yu had no such experience. With such a big camera stuck here, it would not affect them in any way. mood and actions.
After lunch, Lu Yanhe pulled Xin Zixin aside.
“Sister Zi Xing, I’m sorry, can we not take pictures on this trip?” Lu Yanhe asked.
Xin Zixing was stunned, showing surprise, and asked: "What's wrong? Yan He, is there something about us that affects you?"
"No, no." Lu Yanhe Shaking his head, "It's my own fault. I still want to go into the desert without any work pressure. I originally thought I could adjust my mood and not be affected, but with the camera around, I still can't relax 100%." .”
Xin Zixing looked embarrassed.
"I know, this is my fault. I promised you in the beginning." Lu Yanhe said, "This time, I will bear all the expenses for your coming out."
Xin Zi Xing quickly waved her hand: "That's not okay. If you say such polite words to me, I knew before that you went out with your friends to relax. I knew that I'm sorry to come to you for disturbing you. It's okay. I understand your thoughts. I know. I will leave with the filming team."
Lu Yanhe hesitated and said, "Otherwise, I'll ask a friend to come over and record this episode for you?"
Xin Zixing was stunned, "Huh?"
"Or, even if you don't record this episode, you still have inventory to support subsequent broadcasts?"
"Don't worry about this, we still have a few episodes that have been filmed and can be broadcast." Xin Zi Xing said, "When you come back from Jose, we will shoot with you."
Lu Yanhe felt very sorry.
He was the one who agreed to take the photo before, but now he is the one who decided to stop the photo midway.
Lu Yanhe thought about it again, contacted Chen Ziyan, and decided that they should be responsible for the travel expenses of their group, and each of them gave a gift to express his apology.
Chen Ziyan said: "This kind of thing is a bit inappropriate, Yan He. Once word spreads, you will be the person without professionalism, and you will even be said to be a big name."
Lu Yanhe sighed, "I know, In fact, it was indeed my fault. When Sister Zi Xing came to me from the beginning, I should not have agreed."
"Don't take everything on yourself. It's not like you didn't go through it. Friends agree, I just remind you, In the future, you should think twice before doing anything involving your friends. Don’t mess up your usual approach and style just because they are a group of people who are close to you and have a good relationship with you. "Chen Ziyan said, "There are too many disadvantages and it is easy. Something happened, " "City Travel" here, I will arrange it later, don't worry about it, have fun, you have been tired for a long time, it's time to relax."
Hearing what Chen Ziyan said, Lu Yanhe breathed a sigh of relief.
When Chen Qin, Xu Zijun and Chen Siqi arrived later and heard that the filming team of "City Travel" had stopped filming for some reason and would no longer follow them into the desert, Li Pengfei was still confused and asked: "Why do you say not to film? I won’t shoot anymore.”
Lu Yanhe did not explain the real reason.
He didn’t want to burden them, so he just said it was the filming team’s decision.
"Then just a few of us will go into the desert together. Wow, that's cool." Li Pengfei looked excited, "I don't have to pretend anymore."
Lin Yu immediately felt disgusted. Glancing at him, he said, "I really didn't see it. You were pretending, but your four bowls of rice are so delicious."
Li Pengfei: "...That's because I'm really hungry. I can’t help it.”
Lu Yanhe immediately laughed.
While smiling, he noticed Chen Siqi looking at him.
He turned around and looked.
Chen Siqi's hand reached out from under the table, took his hand and squeezed it.
Lu Yanhe smiled at her.
Chen Siqi said: "Well done."
Lu Yanhe said "ah".
Chen Siqi had no intention of continuing to say more.
-
Xin Zixing hesitated for several hours, whether they should stay in Shangjing and shoot a documentary by themselves. Without Lu Yanhe, they would use narration to talk about the customs and customs of Shangjing - this It's not impossible, Lu Yanhe can also record narration.
After all, they have come, and the shooting plans have been submitted.
Xin Zixing understands Lu Yanhe’s thoughts.
She didn't feel that Lu Yanhe had gone back on his word, but felt that her previous interruption was a bit excessive - Lu Yanhe is a person who will do his best to help you, and he is not the kind of person who needs to rely on "hard work" to get things done. "It's difficult to be an artist."
She sighed.
The team has gone to Shangjing to eat, drink and have fun.
She gave them a day off.
There is no one else to discuss it with.
At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared in Xin Zixing's mind.
The Zhou Shuyu who told them historical stories all the way.
Lu Yanhe said at that time——
Your "City Travels" program can actually invite professors to participate in the program. What they talk about is much richer than what we can learn from just a quick glance.
Xin Zixing’s eyes lit up.
Perhaps, you can try asking Professor Zhou Shuyu for help?
As soon as she thought of this, she immediately wanted to contact him. She had no choice but to contact Lu Yanhe again and ask him for his contact information. Lu Yanhe could only ask Qiu Ling for it.
After much deliberation, it took Xin Zixing thirty minutes to get Zhou Shuyu’s contact information.
She called Zhou Shuyu's number.
"Hello, Professor Zhou, I am Xin Zixin, the producer of "City Travels", we just met not long ago..."
