Following the direction of Bai Xiaolan's waving, everyone turned their eyes to her.
Not long after, I saw a young woman in a long white dress walking out of the commercial vehicle slowly, carrying a booklet in her hand.
The woman has a delicate appearance, with a flawless white complexion, a clear and white face, and a playful smile around her small mouth. The sun shines in her clear eyes, like two bright pearls.
Coming to Bai Xiaolan, the young woman said softly, "Sister Xiaolan, I haven't finished reading the "Yubei Town Chronicle" that I borrowed from Yubei Town."
"No hurry, let me introduce you to a few friends." Bai Xiaolan brought the woman in the white dress to him, and introduced them to Gu Chen and Xiao Rui:
"This is my new colleague Liu Jingru, who just came to the TV station not long ago, and will follow me in the future, mainly responsible for some location shooting and post-editing production, that is, sharing some of the work between me and Mr. Wu."
After the words fell, Xiao Rui was stunned for a moment, and then he couldn't help but said with emotion: "Reporter Bai, I think you should have a sense of crisis, right?"
"A sense of crisis?" Bai Xiaolan scratched the back of her head, not quite understanding.
Xiao Rui gave a "tsk", and then said again: "I see your TV station, you can be called a beauty harvester. I used to think that you were the beauty of the TV station."
"But seeing Liu Jingru now, I have to say with a cheeky face that you are the only one in charge of beauty. You two are on par in both figure and appearance. Don't you feel pressured to partner with such a beautiful woman? "
"Pfft!" Hearing what Xiao Rui said, Bai Xiaolan couldn't help laughing out loud: "Pressure? Of course, but I don't care!"
"You don't care?" Xiao Rui also smacked his mouth, feeling unbelievable.
"Yes." Bai Xiaolan nodded slightly, and also explained:
"Before this, I was always touted as the first sister of the TV station by others, which made me feel a lot of pressure. Invisibly... I became a thorn in the side of the female colleagues in the TV station for no reason."
"It's like I want to be the first sister of the TV station? It's not good to always be criticized behind my back. I just want to do my own show well, and I don't want to be the first sister."
Glancing at Liu Jingru beside her, Bai Xiaolan pulled her to her side and said with a smile on her face:
"If you say, can Liu Jingru be the first sister of the TV station? I think...she is not inferior to me in terms of temperament or talent."
"And you may not know, she is our cultural tourism in Jiangnan City..."
"She is one of the top ten contestants for our Jiangnan City Cultural Tourism Image Ambassador."
Before Bai Xiaolan could finish speaking here, Gu Chen answered directly.
Bai Xiaolan was taken aback, and quickly asked Gu Chen, "How do you know?"
"Because I seem to have seen her somewhere before." Gu Chen was also thoughtful.
Bai Xiaolan was stunned, then turned to look at Liu Jingru beside her.
Liu Jingru also scratched the back of her head, and asked Gu Chen with some surprise: "But... But why don't I seem to have seen you?"
"I have been studying in a foreign university before, and I participated in the activity of this cultural tourism image ambassador, which was also completed in my last year of study. I really don't remember where I met you?"
"That's right, Gu Chen, how did you meet her?" Xiao Rui felt that he seemed to be a beat slower than Gu Chen in knowing people.
After Gu Chen thought for a few seconds, he recalled and said, "In the circle of friends."
"Friend... In the circle of friends?"
When everyone heard the words, they also spoke in unison.
Gu Chen nodded silently, and explained to everyone: "Because the vice chairman of the Jiangnan City Federation of Literary and Art Circles is my friend, I have some acquaintance with the members of the major associations in Jiangnan City."
"I remember that on the day of the final of the Jiangnan City Cultural Tourism Image Ambassador, several friends from the vice president of the Jiangnan Film and Television Artists Association gave me a media card and invited me to watch the performance at the VIP seats."
"But because of the busy temporary work, I didn't go to participate, but I saw those friends frantically swiping the screen in the circle of friends."
After a pause, when everyone looked at him dumbfounded, Gu Chen also smiled and said:
"You know, those people who don't post a Moments for a month, suddenly send more than a dozen Moments in a day to refresh the screen, and the screen is full of photos and videos of live games. It's hard for you not to see it. "
"So?" Liu Jingru was stunned.
"So I was in the circle of friends and saw that you won the award of the top ten cultural tourism image masters in Jiangnan City." Gu Chen said.
"So that's the case?" Hearing Gu Chen's explanation, Liu Jingru nodded silently, also embarrassedly said:
"I didn't perform very well that day, I was too nervous, and it was the first time I participated in this kind of competition."
"But when you were in middle school, you already represented the school and won awards frequently." As soon as Liu Jingru finished speaking, Gu Chen interjected.
Liu Jingru lowered her head shyly, and asked weakly, "How do you know this?"
"You graduated from Jiangnan No. 1 Middle School. I saw your award-winning poster in the province when I went back to my alma mater."
"Later, I saw your award-winning dynamics in my circle of friends, so I felt deja vu."
Gu Chen also told the truth, after all, Liu Jingru has a special temperament, just like Gu Chen, it is the kind that can be found at a glance when thrown in the crowd.
Therefore, Gu Chen still has an impression of the school girl in front of him.
Bai Xiaolan slapped her head when she heard the words, and suddenly realized: "I almost forgot, you both graduated from the same school, no wonder I haven't introduced you clearly yet, you Gu Chen said you met her."
"So it's a school girl?" As soon as Bai Xiaolan finished speaking, Xiao Rui stretched out his hand and smiled familiarly:
"Hello, Liu Jingru, it seems that we are alumni, and I also graduated from Jiangnan No. 1 Middle School. My name is Xiao Rui, and I am the university student village official and deputy secretary here."
When Xiao Rui heard about Liu Jingru's situation, he immediately became enthusiastic.
"Hello, Senior Xiao." Liu Jingru gently held Xiao Rui's finger and greeted her.
Xiao Rui also smiled, spread his hands and said, "I said, you have a kind of dignified, gorgeous, elegant and generous look at you."
"So you are the image ambassador of Jiangnan City's cultural tourism? From this point of view, it really fits your temperament."
Looking Liu Jingru up and down, Xiao Rui said again: "Tsk tsk, look at your temperament, what is there a saying? It is just right to describe you."
"Yin is dressed in snow, and his air is as elegant as tea." Xiao Rui didn't know which vocabulary to use to flatter him, so Gu Chen answered for him.
Xiao Rui froze for a moment, then shook his fingers and said, "That's right, that's Yin Ren, who is dressed in snow and looks as elegant as tea, I don't know, but I thought you were Snow White who ran out of that castle? "
Seeing Xiao Rui's flattery, Bai Xiaolan instantly felt that she was not well.
You know, when Xiao Rui met him for the first time, he praised him without any bottom line, which made him feel ecstatic, and felt like he was going to be praised to the sky.
Seeing Liu Jingru now, Xiao Rui repeated his old tricks, and he might have to ask for the WeChat number later.
Just as Bai Xiaolan thought of this, Xiao Rui on the side smiled and said, "Why don't you add a WeChat? I know this area well, and I'll take you there to take pictures of the human landscape later."
"And don't you want to share the work of Reporter Bai and Teacher Wu?" Xiao Rui patted his chest, and said proudly: "I am the deputy secretary here, and I will be transferred to Yubei Town soon. Correspondent in Beizhen."
"In the future, if you come to Yubei Town, don't say anything else, let me know if you need help, and I will make arrangements for you."
While speaking, Xiao Rui took out his mobile phone and prepared to add Liu Jingru as a WeChat friend.
Liu Jingru felt a little embarrassed, and couldn't help but sneak a glance in Bai Xiaolan's direction.
Bai Xiaolan understood, and interrupted with a smile: "Xiao Rui, Liu Jingru will follow me from now on. If you have any good news, you can send it to me. It's the same if I arrange for Liu Jingru."
After the words fell, before Xiao Rui could say anything else, Bai Xiaolan immediately pulled Liu Jingru to Gu Chen, and introduced her:
"Jingru, this is Gu Chen, the noble person I work for, the youngest captain of the criminal investigation team in the history of the Furong branch, and a resident guest of our "Positive Energy in Action" column."
"At the beginning, like you, I was also a trainee reporter for a TV station, but since Gu Chen's help, my career has slowly improved."
"And Gu Chen was the head of the interview department and photographer of your school's press corps before, so he is familiar with our work."
"If you have any questions that you don't understand, you can ask Gu Chen and learn from him. Moreover, Gu Chen has quite a lot of experience in handling cases. He once represented the Jiangnan City Police Force in a joint mission to Italy in Europe."
Seeing Liu Jingru nodding like a chicken pecking at rice, Bai Xiaolan said again: "Gu Chen is full of treasures, any experience is enough for you to publish a report, in short, he is the best policeman I have ever seen .”
"In the words of our director, Gu Chen is a super policeman."
"Is this... so exaggerated?" Listening to Bai Xiaolan tirelessly introducing Gu Chen here, Liu Jingru felt a little confused.
Seeing this, Wu Jun, the photographer at the side, came over with a smile and said, "Jingru, don't believe me, what Xiaolan said is true, and I can also testify to that."
"Yeah." Seeing that Bai Xiaolan and the photographer Wu Jun were both endorsing Gu Chen, Liu Jingru suddenly felt that the handsome policeman in front of her seemed to feel a little incomprehensible.
Seeing himself chatting, suddenly being marginalized, suddenly becoming a transparent human attribute, Xiao Rui also looked depressed.
When I saw Gu Chen before, I thought Gu Chen was just a small policeman with some work experience.
But now it is discovered that Gu Chen is not only a small policeman, but also the youngest captain of the criminal investigation team in the Furong branch.
Xiao Rui of the Furong Branch knows that it is also a relatively large organization, but Gu Chen has only been working for a few years, and he has already become the captain of the criminal investigation team.
It can be seen that Gu Chen has already surpassed 99% of his peers, and he is one of the 99%.
Just now I was bragging in front of Gu Chen, saying that I have known many people over the years.
But after listening to Gu Chen, I realized that this guy's network of connections is simply terrifying.
The vice chairman of the Federation of Literary and Art Circles, the chairman of the association, the ace host and cameraman of the TV station, I feel like there is no one that Gu Chen doesn't know.
Xiao Rui suddenly had a sense of self-knowledge that those outstanding classmates back then might be even better in the future.
Looking back, I have indeed made some small achievements in the past few years, and even Xiao Rui himself thinks that this is a kind of counterattack performance.
But now it seems that the kind of counterattack and achievement that Xiao Rui thinks is really not worth mentioning in front of Gu Chen.
The ace host and reporter of the TV station that I know already belong to a very strong network in my cognition.
But this ace host reporter or something regards Gu Chen as a professional benefactor.
In comparison, Xiao Rui could suddenly understand that he had talked all kinds of boasting in front of Gu Chen just now, but Gu Chen's reaction was very calm.
At that time, did you feel that Gu Chen was a little jealous of his achievements? Feeling unbalanced? That's why he deliberately showed a normal reaction expression?
But now it seems that he has wrongly blamed Gu Chen. Just looking at Bai Xiaolan, Liu Jingru and Wu Jun talking and laughing with Gu Chen, Xiao Rui knows that these people are old friends with Gu Chen.
And in this circle, he is a complete outsider.
Thinking about the fact that people are more popular than people, it seems to be the same reason.
Xiao Rui, who is marginalized here, is still reflecting on himself. On the other side, seeing that Gu Chen and Xiao Rui are both in Hujia Village at the same time, Liu Jingru also asked curiously:
"By the way, Senior Gu Chen, since you are the groom's classmate, you can definitely take us to meet the groom, right? We are here this time to interview the couple."
Hearing Liu Jingru's remarks, Gu Chen was suddenly a little embarrassed, and couldn't help but look at Xiao Rui beside him.
Xiao Rui, who is a transparent person, was stunned for a while, and found that he hadn't explained the business clearly to everyone after chatting for a long time.
Thinking about this matter, it was all caused by myself. Now that I refuse the TV station's interview request face to face, where will I save my face?
Feeling a little embarrassed, Xiao Rui remembered that there was Gu Chen beside him, and immediately looked at Gu Chen and said:
"Gu...Gu Chen, since we are all acquaintances, then...then you can explain to them, Hu Jianan seemed to want me to help come here just now, and the feast is about to start soon, I have to Hurry over and help."
"But……"
When Gu Chen heard Xiao Rui's speech, he thought that Hu Jianan didn't seem to ask you to help him, did he?
But in the middle of the conversation, Xiao Rui interrupted wittily: "But you also want to help, right? No need, you stay here to accompany the friends of the TV station, that's it. If you have anything to ask Gu Chen, Gu Chen will I will arrange everything for you, and I will excuse you first."
"Ugh?"
Seeing Xiao Rui turning his head and running away, Bai Xiaolan was dumbfounded, and couldn't help saying:
"This Xiao Rui, usually likes to rub the camera the most, what's wrong with him today?"
After finishing speaking, Bai Xiaolan looked at Gu Chen again and said, "Gu Chen, what about the interview for your friend's wedding?"
"Uh, that's how it is." Feeling that Xiao Rui was throwing the blame on himself and asking himself to clean up the mess for him, Gu Chen felt embarrassed for a while.
But after all, there are two people, one is a classmate and the other is a friend.
Only now does Gu Chen realize that being caught in the middle is not a human feeling.
I finally know why Xiao Rui runs so fast?
Thinking about it sooner or later, Gu Chen simply shook his head and smiled, and also took the initiative to explain:
"Xiaolan, it's like this. You want to report the news that my classmate and teacher got married, but my classmate didn't know about it beforehand."
"I don't know?" Hearing Gu Chen's remarks, Bai Xiaolan couldn't help being taken aback, and quickly said:
"However, Xiao Rui said it was big news, and I asked him if he could do an interview? He told me that the groom is his classmate, it's just a matter of words."
Hearing what Bai Xiaolan said, Gu Chen looked at Xiao Rui who had run away, and knew that this guy was bragging about Bai Xiaolan.
Now being slapped in the face by Hu Jianan, this guy threw the blame on himself again, saying that this guy has become smoother in the past few years at the grassroots level, and his mouth is like running a train.
Thinking about it is also drunk.
But the matter over Hu Jianan must be clarified after all, so Gu Chen did not hide it, and explained straightforwardly:
"It's like this. My classmate Hu Jianan really didn't know about this matter. Xiao Rui made it up on his own. When the groom heard about it just now, he also looked depressed."
"Because the bride is his teacher, the groom's officer didn't even invite his classmates, because he was afraid that the bride would be stressed and embarrassed, so..."
"So we were let go?" Liu Jingru said with her beautiful eyes blinking.
Gu Chen was a little embarrassed, but still nodded helplessly.
Seeing this situation, Bai Xiaolan also said angrily: "This Xiao Rui is too unreliable, isn't he? At the beginning, he swore that the groom was his classmate, so he said all kinds of good things, and invited us to come here to participate in the wedding interview."
"But now, Xiao Rui patted his ass and left, leaving us here, what does that mean?"
Seeing that Bai Xiaolan was really anxious, Gu Chen also smiled lightly and said, "Of course it's not without a compromise."
"My classmate said that it's okay to report, but don't let him show his face with the bride, and the name of the report, don't use his real name, you can use Xiao Hu and Xiao Liu instead."
"That's fine, as long as one report can be collected and edited." As soon as Gu Chen finished speaking, the photographer Wu Jun came over and said.
Seeing that Gu Chen was a little embarrassed, Bai Xiaolan, who was still depressed just now, suddenly laughed and said, "Gu Chen, I'm just kidding you."
"Are you kidding me?" Gu Chen didn't quite understand.
Bai Xiaolan took a thick book "Yubei Town Chronicle" wrapped in a red cardboard directly from Liu Jingru's hand, raised it in her hand, and said with a smile on her face:
"Actually, we have planned to come to Yubei Town as early as possible. In fact, we also want to come here to shoot a set of promotional videos for Yubei Town."
"It just so happened that we received a call from Xiao Rui saying that he had a big piece of news, so we decided to come here to see if we can make some breaking news."
Shrugging his shoulders, Bai Xiaolan also said helplessly: "I just didn't expect that Xiao Rui would let us go. Damn, our enthusiasm was blinded for nothing."
"So it's like this?" Seeing that everyone didn't come here specially to interview the wedding, Gu Chen suddenly felt that the guilt wasn't so heavy.
But thinking that everyone should not return without success, Gu Chen hurriedly suggested: "How about this, I won't let you come in vain, I can provide you with some information about the bride and groom."
"As for the photos... Let's take a few exterior shots of the wedding, just don't let the bride and groom appear on the scene."
"Besides, since you are here to shoot the promotional video of Yubei Town, I can ask Xiao Rui to accompany you there after the wedding."
"After all, he is very familiar with this area, so he can't go wrong with being a tour guide."
"Okay." Bai Xiaolan looked around and said, "But we were not invited, so it would be embarrassing to stay here. Otherwise, you, Gu Chen, would be in charge of taking the photos on site."
"After the wedding banquet, you and Xiao Rui will come over to join us immediately, and I will send you our address at that time, what do you think?"
"Yes." Gu Chen feels that the method is feasible and saves each other's time.
"Then it's settled." Upon receiving Gu Chen's reply, Bai Xiaolan turned to Liu Jingru and Wu Jun and said, "Jingru, Teacher Wu, leave this to Gu Chen."
"At that time, we can ask Gu Chen for the material of the newsletter, and Gu Chen will also provide the photos and videos. Let's go to other places in Yubei Town to shoot now."
"Okay, then I'll trouble Gu Chen." Wu Jun didn't care.
Liu Jingru also nodded slightly.
After exchanging a few simple greetings, Bai Xiaolan, Liu Jingru, and Wu Jun left Hujia Village in a commercial vehicle.
Feeling that the situation here has finally been resolved, Gu Chen also breathed a sigh of relief.
After seeing off Bai Xiaolan and the others, Gu Chen came to the ancestral hall of Hujia Village.
Hu Jianan and Liu Shiyin's wedding was extremely lively, especially in the rural areas, and the folks in the village didn't pay too much attention.
The two relatives were also very happy.
After accepting the toast from the bride and groom, Gu Chen and Xiao Rui hurriedly left the ancestral hall after greeting each other. According to the location coordinates sent by Bai Xiaolan, Gu Chen drove directly and took Xiao Rui to meet up.
At 2 o'clock in the afternoon, under an ancient camphor tree.
Liu Jingru sat at a stone table, flipping through the "Yubei Town Chronicle" in her hand.
On the other side, photographer Wu Jun is adjusting the equipment.
Bai Xiaolan stood on the side and fanned the wind with her hands.
The weather in Jiangnan City has been extremely hot recently, which made such location shooting a little hard.
Seeing Gu Chen parked the car on the side of the road and walked towards her with Xiao Rui, Bai Xiaolan stepped forward to greet her and said, "Aren't you afraid that your old classmates will blame you for coming out so early?"
"Anyway, I've been 'offended', and I'm not afraid to offend again." In Xiao Rui's cognition, a negative is a positive.
Offended + offended = not offended.
Gu Chen also explained: "There are too many guests in the ancestral hall, and the bride and groom can't take care of them."
"So we came here to say hello, and it can be regarded as an apology to you, after all, let you go for nothing."
"Haha." Hearing Gu Chen's words, Bai Xiaolan couldn't help laughing twice.
At this moment, photographer Wu Jun had already finished his preparations, and reminded Liu Jingru, "Liu Jingru, get ready, three two ones will start."
Following Wu Jun's command, Liu Jingru immediately sat gracefully on the stone bench and flipped through the "Yubei Town Chronicle" on the stone table.
After several close-ups were completed, Wu Jun walked to the distance, put the camera on one side, picked up the set up drone to control, and said, "Okay, very good, now let's take an aerial shot and continue reading."
Liu Jingru has a strong sense of the camera, and continues to look at the book in her hand.
With the sound of "hum", the drone also slowly climbed to a height of one meter.
At this moment, Gu Chen, Xiao Rui, and Bai Xiaolan also surrounded Wu Jun, watching the screen on the controller.
"Look at the scenery on the left." Wu Jun reminded.
Hearing what the photographer Wu Jun said, Liu Jingru obeyed and looked to the left naturally.
"Okay, fine, that's it, keep it up."
After the voice fell, Wu Jun controlled the drone and adjusted the camera direction to the position where Liu Jingru was looking to the left.
As the drone continued to move forward, the camera also began to record the God's perspective of the ancient village.
At this time, Liu Jingru, who was wearing a white long dress, looked flawless in the sun, like a fairy, and against the background of green plants, she looked more gentle and flexible
Her long hair fluttered with the breeze.
The sky is as blue as dye, the clouds are as white as snow, and the warm sun illuminates the entire ancient village.
Everyone is quietly enjoying the beautiful scenery around them.
Gu Chen suddenly looked at Bai Xiaolan curiously, and asked in a low voice, "By the way, Xiaolan, I heard from Lu Weiwei that you want to be a program producer?"
"That's right." Bai Xiaolan grinned and said with some embarrassment:
"I don't have that strength yet, but the director said that I can consider letting me develop in this area, but I have to bring an apprentice to ensure that the column of "Positive Energy in Action" and some outdoor shootings have models that can go abroad."
Looking at Liu Jingru in front of her, Bai Xiaolan said with a look of relief: "Did you see that, now I have found it, this is the cultural tourism image ambassador that we spent a lot of effort to invite to join."
"With Liu Jingru here, I can reduce a lot of shooting tasks. Now I want her to integrate into our shooting understanding as much as possible and adapt to our shooting rhythm as soon as possible."
Hearing Bai Xiaolan's remarks, Xiao Rui also asked hesitantly: "But I heard that the column producer is under a lot of pressure. Isn't it good for you, Bai Xiaolan, to be a host reporter or something?"
"Besides, you still have a trump card program in your hand, "Positive Energy in Action", isn't it safe and sound?"
"Not good." As soon as Xiao Rui finished speaking, Bai Xiaolan shook her head: "I feel like I've reached a career bottleneck."
"I have almost won all the honors that should be won in the station in the past few years, but if I continue to develop at this pace, when I reach a certain age, then I will be replaced by some younger people from radio and television."
"So, I have to prepare in advance and transform as soon as possible, so as not to make my career too passive."
"It's good to have a sense of urgency." Hearing what Bai Xiaolan said, Gu Chen also admired it very much.
At least be prepared for danger in times of peace, which in itself is the attitude that a professional should have.
Bai Xiaolan also grinned, and said helplessly, "I'm not afraid of being silent in this era, I'm just afraid that like many people, I'm addicted to short-term enjoyment and pleasure."
"If you don't read, don't think, you can't learn to listen, and you don't have a sense of crisis."
"So if one day, when the good times come, I will find myself empty-handed, and even dragged down by impetuousness and sadness."
With a faint sigh, Bai Xiaolan was also quite helpless: "If I can't bring out anything decent to dedicate to this life full of tears, then I think it is different from the walking dead?"
"Hehe." Hearing Bai Xiaolan's remarks, Xiao Rui couldn't help laughing and said: "You think a lot, but I feel that we don't need to be worthy of life, but we must be worthy of ourselves."
"En." Bai Xiaolan nodded slightly, glanced at Gu Chen who was at the side, and asked, "Gu Chen, what do you think?"
"I think?" Gu Chen thought briefly for two seconds, then smiled thoughtfully:
"I think you can take some painkillers when you are in pain, but painkillers can only paralyze you, they can't save you."
"It's like I'm tired of books, I thought I blocked the teacher, but what I blocked was my own future."
"Then remove the book and welcome a bright future." Bai Xiaolan said while looking at Gu Chen.
Gu Chen nodded slightly: "Maybe what we lost is exactly what we shouldn't have."
"You have to understand that reading is not as good as writing a book. Life is about expression, not narration, but more about emotions, love, insignificant sincerity, and... dispensable attachments, as long as I like it. .”
Seeing that Bai Xiaolan seems to be under a lot of pressure recently, Gu Chen also said with a light smile: "After all, people only live once, so it's good to be worthy of yourself, why should you care so much?"
"I think you have been under too much pressure recently, and some of you think too much, so that you collapse yourself tightly."
"The last time I interviewed Hu Fanzhen in Jiangbei City and Ye Juanjuan in our Jiangnan City, I could see that you are not as open-minded and open-minded as before."
"Uh, did you see all of this?" Hearing Gu Chen's remarks, Bai Xiaolan couldn't help laughing dryly, and said helplessly:
"You have to know that most of the colleagues who entered the TV station with me as interns have now changed careers."
"Some went to open a Korean-style office barbecue, some went to the Jiangnan City Fire Brigade to start a We-Media official account, and some became independent photographers."
"And if I hadn't produced this popular column "Positive Energy in Action" with Teacher Wu because I hugged your thigh, Gu Chen, I would probably still be a little reporter who is content with the status quo. Not much to achieve."
Taking a deep breath, Bai Xiaolan said again: "One's life should be spent in this way, one will not regret for wasting one's life, and one will not be ashamed for doing nothing."
"It's not going to be as good as we thought it would be, and it won't be as bad as we thought it would be."
"Sometimes I struggle with my own future, so now I'm turning in the direction of a producer."
Turning her head to look at Gu Chen, Bai Xiaolan said again: "Recently, I've been talking with Yuan's Group about sponsorship projects, and I want to take the FPV cross-travel competition project into my own hands."
"FPV traversing machine competition?" Hearing that Bai Xiaolan was holding it, Xiao Rui couldn't help being stunned, and hurriedly asked, "What kind of stuff is this?"
"Drone racing." Gu Chen explained.
"That's right." Bai Xiaolan nodded silently, and said without distinction: "Drone racing is a new technological sport in recent years. Together with e-sports and robot fighting, it is also called the three major intelligent technological sports."
Looking at the photographer Wu Jun who was operating the drone for aerial photography in front of him, Bai Xiaolan said again:
"However, this kind of competition is different from common photography drones. Racing drones can reach a maximum speed of 230 kilometers per hour."
"No, what is the maximum speed?" Hearing Bai Xiaolan's remarks, Xiao Rui looked incredulous: "230 kilometers per hour? This is almost catching up with the speed of the high-speed rail. Is it so scary?"
"It's normal." Seeing Xiao Rui making a fuss, Gu Chen also explained with a smile:
"As far as I know, this kind of traversing machine can accelerate from 1 km to 100 km in less than 1 second."
"Technically, it involves disciplines such as aerodynamics, software, and electronic engineering, and requires extremely high requirements for the pilot's on-the-spot response and control skills."
After a pause, seeing Xiao Rui's confused face, Gu Chen said again:
"Because of the extreme speed of this traversing machine, this kind of drone racing is also called 'air F1'."
"Then what do you guys mean by FPV?" Xiao Rui was totally Xiaobai's, and he seemed unable to get in the middle of the conversation between Bai Xiaolan and Gu Chen.
Gu Chen grinned and continued to explain: "The so-called FPV is actually the existence of the first-person perspective system, which allows pilots and spectators to watch the flight racing process in real time through the drone camera and experience the feeling of sitting in the cockpit. .”
"For example, when you wear a head-mounted display that transmits video from the perspective of a flying drone, some pilots even describe this as a 'spirit out of body'. , seeing various scenes of your flight."
"The degree of excitement is no less than that of an F1 car. It is actually an experience of flying a fighter jet at high speed by yourself."
"So it's like this?" Hearing what Gu Chen said, Xiao Rui probably understood what was going on, and couldn't help but admire:
"That's amazing, you want to undertake the broadcast of this program?"
"Yes." Bai Xiaolan nodded slightly, and said involuntarily, "I have already contacted the relevant associations and teams of the domestic FPV racing competition, and I plan to negotiate with them to set up one of the competition sub-stations in Jiangnan City."
"At that time, our Jiangnan City TV station will record the whole broadcast, and I have already discussed this project with the director, who is very supportive, but..."
In the middle of speaking, Bai Xiaolan suddenly hesitated again.
"But what?" Gu Chen and Xiao Rui said in unison.
"But...but the director said that this project can be entrusted to me, but I need to handle the later sponsorship by myself."
"Because there is no commercial value without sponsorship, this project will not make money, so I have been in contact with the entertainment business group of Yuan Group recently, hoping to get commercial sponsorship from Yuan Group."
"As for the venues of these competitions, we have roughly finalized some details. Even during this period, some members of domestic FPV racing clubs will come here for inspection and training."
Taking a deep breath, Bai Xiaolan said, "So, now you all know how stressed I am?"
"In fact, it is really not easy to be a good producer, and the risk of losing money in the project is really great."
"If there is no support from the sponsors behind them, there is almost no need for these projects to start."
With a faint sigh, Bai Xiaolan was also quite helpless: "But fortunately, I have the popular column "Positive Energy in Action" in my hand, which has certain commercial value."
"Furthermore, the Yuan Group's entertainment business group has always sponsored our column, so I talked to them about this project this time, and they are willing to try it, but we are still discussing the sponsorship fee in detail. What will happen in the end? Not finalized."
Looking at Gu Chen, Bai Xiaolan couldn't help but smile wryly: "Gu Chen, what do you think I should do? I feel like I'm going all out this time. A young host like me dares to take on a project that many old producers dare not do. .”
"Furthermore, projects such as the FPV traversing machine racing competition are still in the early stages in China, and the audience is not very large, so the risks to be faced are also great, and the commercial realization ability belongs to the exploratory stage."
Sitting on a boulder, Bai Xiaolan rested her hands on her chin, and said with emotion: "Gu Chen, you said this, should I do it or not?"
Hearing Bai Xiaolan's words, Gu Chen didn't answer immediately, but after a few seconds of contemplation, he gave a suggestion:
"Xiaolan, I can't answer your question, because I don't know much about this project, and I haven't investigated it, but I can share with you a technique that you can definitely use."
"Huh?" Hearing what Gu Chen said, Bai Xiaolan became interested immediately, and hurriedly approached Gu Chen, asking for advice, "Tell me."
"That's right, Gu Chen, tell me." Xiao Rui who was on the side was also quite interested.
Gu Chen crossed his arms and said thoughtfully: "When you really want to do something, but your heart or someone tells you that you can't do it, you can ask yourself, if you can do it, you can't do it." Will it die?"
"Uh..." Hearing Gu Chen's words, Bai Xiaolan was stunned, and asked again: "So...so?"
"If you're going to die, forget it, if you're not going to die, just let me do it right away." Gu Chen said.
Bai Xiaolan nodded slightly: "I thought so too at the time, but I didn't feel courageous."
"But sometimes I think about it, if I don't do it, I might live like a fool in the future."
"Hehe." Gu Chen laughed dryly when he heard the words, shook his head, and said, "Xiao Lan, let me tell you a secret at the end, do you know what you will die if you do it?"
"Uh……"
Bai Xiaolan's eyes widened, and she began to hesitate.
But Gu Chen blurted out: "That's right, you will die in the end if you do anything, and the only one who can stop you is yourself."
"I understand."
Hearing what Gu Chen said, Bai Xiaolan suddenly became enlightened, and said with a long sigh of relief: "Listening to you, Gu Chen, is just comfortable."
"After the filming task here is completed, I will contact the Yuan Group when I go back. I must get the sponsorship. For this project, I am bound to win it. I have to let the entertainment business group of the Yuan Group see my determination. "
Bai Xiaolan suddenly seemed to be a different person.
After all, this is my first battle as a producer. If the event fails, my confidence in becoming a producer in the future will be greatly affected.
On this side, Bai Xiaolan was still holding on to a desperate mentality, brewing her emotions, but on the other side, she heard the photographer Wu Jun not far away yelling "Damn!"
...
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
Following the direction of Bai Xiaolan's waving, everyone turned their eyes to her.
Not long after, I saw a young woman in a long white dress walking out of the commercial vehicle slowly, carrying a booklet in her hand.
The woman has a delicate appearance, with a flawless white complexion, a clear and white face, and a playful smile around her small mouth. The sun shines in her clear eyes, like two bright pearls.
Coming to Bai Xiaolan, the young woman said softly, "Sister Xiaolan, I haven't finished reading the "Yubei Town Chronicle" that I borrowed from Yubei Town."
"No hurry, let me introduce you to a few friends." Bai Xiaolan brought the woman in the white dress to him, and introduced them to Gu Chen and Xiao Rui:
"This is my new colleague Liu Jingru, who just came to the TV station not long ago, and will follow me in the future, mainly responsible for some location shooting and post-editing production, that is, sharing some of the work between me and Mr. Wu."
After the words fell, Xiao Rui was stunned for a moment, and then he couldn't help but said with emotion: "Reporter Bai, I think you should have a sense of crisis, right?"
"A sense of crisis?" Bai Xiaolan scratched the back of her head, not quite understanding.
Xiao Rui gave a "tsk", and then said again: "I see your TV station, you can be called a beauty harvester. I used to think that you were the beauty of the TV station."
"But seeing Liu Jingru now, I have to say with a cheeky face that you are the only one in charge of beauty. You two are on par in both figure and appearance. Don't you feel pressured to partner with such a beautiful woman? "
"Pfft!" Hearing what Xiao Rui said, Bai Xiaolan couldn't help laughing out loud: "Pressure? Of course, but I don't care!"
"You don't care?" Xiao Rui also smacked his mouth, feeling unbelievable.
"Yes." Bai Xiaolan nodded slightly, and also explained:
"Before this, I was always touted as the first sister of the TV station by others, which made me feel a lot of pressure. Invisibly... I became a thorn in the side of the female colleagues in the TV station for no reason."
"It's like I want to be the first sister of the TV station? It's not good to always be criticized behind my back. I just want to do my own show well, and I don't want to be the first sister."
Glancing at Liu Jingru beside her, Bai Xiaolan pulled her to her side and said with a smile on her face:
"If you say, can Liu Jingru be the first sister of the TV station? I think...she is not inferior to me in terms of temperament or talent."
"And you may not know, she is our cultural tourism in Jiangnan City..."
"She is one of the top ten contestants for our Jiangnan City Cultural Tourism Image Ambassador."
Before Bai Xiaolan could finish speaking here, Gu Chen answered directly.
Bai Xiaolan was taken aback, and quickly asked Gu Chen, "How do you know?"
"Because I seem to have seen her somewhere before." Gu Chen was also thoughtful.
Bai Xiaolan was stunned, then turned to look at Liu Jingru beside her.
Liu Jingru also scratched the back of her head, and asked Gu Chen with some surprise: "But... But why don't I seem to have seen you?"
"I have been studying in a foreign university before, and I participated in the activity of this cultural tourism image ambassador, which was also completed in my last year of study. I really don't remember where I met you?"
"That's right, Gu Chen, how did you meet her?" Xiao Rui felt that he seemed to be a beat slower than Gu Chen in knowing people.
After Gu Chen thought for a few seconds, he recalled and said, "In the circle of friends."
"Friend... In the circle of friends?"
When everyone heard the words, they also spoke in unison.
Gu Chen nodded silently, and explained to everyone: "Because the vice chairman of the Jiangnan City Federation of Literary and Art Circles is my friend, I have some acquaintance with the members of the major associations in Jiangnan City."
"I remember that on the day of the final of the Jiangnan City Cultural Tourism Image Ambassador, several friends from the vice president of the Jiangnan Film and Television Artists Association gave me a media card and invited me to watch the performance at the VIP seats."
"But because of the busy temporary work, I didn't go to participate, but I saw those friends frantically swiping the screen in the circle of friends."
After a pause, when everyone looked at him dumbfounded, Gu Chen also smiled and said:
"You know, those people who don't post a Moments for a month, suddenly send more than a dozen Moments in a day to refresh the screen, and the screen is full of photos and videos of live games. It's hard for you not to see it. "
"So?" Liu Jingru was stunned.
"So I was in the circle of friends and saw that you won the award of the top ten cultural tourism image masters in Jiangnan City." Gu Chen said.
"So that's the case?" Hearing Gu Chen's explanation, Liu Jingru nodded silently, also embarrassedly said:
"I didn't perform very well that day, I was too nervous, and it was the first time I participated in this kind of competition."
"But when you were in middle school, you already represented the school and won awards frequently." As soon as Liu Jingru finished speaking, Gu Chen interjected.
Liu Jingru lowered her head shyly, and asked weakly, "How do you know this?"
"You graduated from Jiangnan No. 1 Middle School. I saw your award-winning poster in the province when I went back to my alma mater."
"Later, I saw your award-winning dynamics in my circle of friends, so I felt deja vu."
Gu Chen also told the truth, after all, Liu Jingru has a special temperament, just like Gu Chen, it is the kind that can be found at a glance when thrown in the crowd.
Therefore, Gu Chen still has an impression of the school girl in front of him.
Bai Xiaolan slapped her head when she heard the words, and suddenly realized: "I almost forgot, you both graduated from the same school, no wonder I haven't introduced you clearly yet, you Gu Chen said you met her."
"So it's a school girl?" As soon as Bai Xiaolan finished speaking, Xiao Rui stretched out his hand and smiled familiarly:
"Hello, Liu Jingru, it seems that we are alumni, and I also graduated from Jiangnan No. 1 Middle School. My name is Xiao Rui, and I am the university student village official and deputy secretary here."
When Xiao Rui heard about Liu Jingru's situation, he immediately became enthusiastic.
"Hello, Senior Xiao." Liu Jingru gently held Xiao Rui's finger and greeted her.
Xiao Rui also smiled, spread his hands and said, "I said, you have a kind of dignified, gorgeous, elegant and generous look at you."
"So you are the image ambassador of Jiangnan City's cultural tourism? From this point of view, it really fits your temperament."
Looking Liu Jingru up and down, Xiao Rui said again: "Tsk tsk, look at your temperament, what is there a saying? It is just right to describe you."
"Yin is dressed in snow, and his air is as elegant as tea." Xiao Rui didn't know which vocabulary to use to flatter him, so Gu Chen answered for him.
Xiao Rui froze for a moment, then shook his fingers and said, "That's right, that's Yin Ren, who is dressed in snow and looks as elegant as tea, I don't know, but I thought you were Snow White who ran out of that castle? "
Seeing Xiao Rui's flattery, Bai Xiaolan instantly felt that she was not well.
You know, when Xiao Rui met him for the first time, he praised him without any bottom line, which made him feel ecstatic, and felt like he was going to be praised to the sky.
Seeing Liu Jingru now, Xiao Rui repeated his old tricks, and he might have to ask for the WeChat number later.
Just as Bai Xiaolan thought of this, Xiao Rui on the side smiled and said, "Why don't you add a WeChat? I know this area well, and I'll take you there to take pictures of the human landscape later."
"And don't you want to share the work of Reporter Bai and Teacher Wu?" Xiao Rui patted his chest, and said proudly: "I am the deputy secretary here, and I will be transferred to Yubei Town soon. Correspondent in Beizhen."
"In the future, if you come to Yubei Town, don't say anything else, let me know if you need help, and I will make arrangements for you."
While speaking, Xiao Rui took out his mobile phone and prepared to add Liu Jingru as a WeChat friend.
Liu Jingru felt a little embarrassed, and couldn't help but sneak a glance in Bai Xiaolan's direction.
Bai Xiaolan understood, and interrupted with a smile: "Xiao Rui, Liu Jingru will follow me from now on. If you have any good news, you can send it to me. It's the same if I arrange for Liu Jingru."
After the words fell, before Xiao Rui could say anything else, Bai Xiaolan immediately pulled Liu Jingru to Gu Chen, and introduced her:
"Jingru, this is Gu Chen, the noble person I work for, the youngest captain of the criminal investigation team in the history of the Furong branch, and a resident guest of our "Positive Energy in Action" column."
"At the beginning, like you, I was also a trainee reporter for a TV station, but since Gu Chen's help, my career has slowly improved."
"And Gu Chen was the head of the interview department and photographer of your school's press corps before, so he is familiar with our work."
"If you have any questions that you don't understand, you can ask Gu Chen and learn from him. Moreover, Gu Chen has quite a lot of experience in handling cases. He once represented the Jiangnan City Police Force in a joint mission to Italy in Europe."
Seeing Liu Jingru nodding like a chicken pecking at rice, Bai Xiaolan said again: "Gu Chen is full of treasures, any experience is enough for you to publish a report, in short, he is the best policeman I have ever seen .”
"In the words of our director, Gu Chen is a super policeman."
"Is this... so exaggerated?" Listening to Bai Xiaolan tirelessly introducing Gu Chen here, Liu Jingru felt a little confused.
Seeing this, Wu Jun, the photographer at the side, came over with a smile and said, "Jingru, don't believe me, what Xiaolan said is true, and I can also testify to that."
"Yeah." Seeing that Bai Xiaolan and the photographer Wu Jun were both endorsing Gu Chen, Liu Jingru suddenly felt that the handsome policeman in front of her seemed to feel a little incomprehensible.
Seeing himself chatting, suddenly being marginalized, suddenly becoming a transparent human attribute, Xiao Rui also looked depressed.
When I saw Gu Chen before, I thought Gu Chen was just a small policeman with some work experience.
But now it is discovered that Gu Chen is not only a small policeman, but also the youngest captain of the criminal investigation team in the Furong branch.
Xiao Rui of the Furong Branch knows that it is also a relatively large organization, but Gu Chen has only been working for a few years, and he has already become the captain of the criminal investigation team.
It can be seen that Gu Chen has already surpassed 99% of his peers, and he is one of the 99%.
Just now I was bragging in front of Gu Chen, saying that I have known many people over the years.
But after listening to Gu Chen, I realized that this guy's network of connections is simply terrifying.
The vice chairman of the Federation of Literary and Art Circles, the chairman of the association, the ace host and cameraman of the TV station, I feel like there is no one that Gu Chen doesn't know.
Xiao Rui suddenly had a sense of self-knowledge that those outstanding classmates back then might be even better in the future.
Looking back, I have indeed made some small achievements in the past few years, and even Xiao Rui himself thinks that this is a kind of counterattack performance.
But now it seems that the kind of counterattack and achievement that Xiao Rui thinks is really not worth mentioning in front of Gu Chen.
The ace host and reporter of the TV station that I know already belong to a very strong network in my cognition.
But this ace host reporter or something regards Gu Chen as a professional benefactor.
In comparison, Xiao Rui could suddenly understand that he had talked all kinds of boasting in front of Gu Chen just now, but Gu Chen's reaction was very calm.
At that time, did you feel that Gu Chen was a little jealous of his achievements? Feeling unbalanced? That's why he deliberately showed a normal reaction expression?
But now it seems that he has wrongly blamed Gu Chen. Just looking at Bai Xiaolan, Liu Jingru and Wu Jun talking and laughing with Gu Chen, Xiao Rui knows that these people are old friends with Gu Chen.
And in this circle, he is a complete outsider.
Thinking about the fact that people are more popular than people, it seems to be the same reason.
Xiao Rui, who is marginalized here, is still reflecting on himself. On the other side, seeing that Gu Chen and Xiao Rui are both in Hujia Village at the same time, Liu Jingru also asked curiously:
"By the way, Senior Gu Chen, since you are the groom's classmate, you can definitely take us to meet the groom, right? We are here this time to interview the couple."
Hearing Liu Jingru's remarks, Gu Chen was suddenly a little embarrassed, and couldn't help but look at Xiao Rui beside him.
Xiao Rui, who is a transparent person, was stunned for a while, and found that he hadn't explained the business clearly to everyone after chatting for a long time.
Thinking about this matter, it was all caused by myself. Now that I refuse the TV station's interview request face to face, where will I save my face?
Feeling a little embarrassed, Xiao Rui remembered that there was Gu Chen beside him, and immediately looked at Gu Chen and said:
"Gu...Gu Chen, since we are all acquaintances, then...then you can explain to them, Hu Jianan seemed to want me to help come here just now, and the feast is about to start soon, I have to Hurry over and help."
"But……"
When Gu Chen heard Xiao Rui's speech, he thought that Hu Jianan didn't seem to ask you to help him, did he?
But in the middle of the conversation, Xiao Rui interrupted wittily: "But you also want to help, right? No need, you stay here to accompany the friends of the TV station, that's it. If you have anything to ask Gu Chen, Gu Chen will I will arrange everything for you, and I will excuse you first."
"Ugh?"
Seeing Xiao Rui turning his head and running away, Bai Xiaolan was dumbfounded, and couldn't help saying:
"This Xiao Rui, usually likes to rub the camera the most, what's wrong with him today?"
After finishing speaking, Bai Xiaolan looked at Gu Chen again and said, "Gu Chen, what about the interview for your friend's wedding?"
"Uh, that's how it is." Feeling that Xiao Rui was throwing the blame on himself and asking himself to clean up the mess for him, Gu Chen felt embarrassed for a while.
But after all, there are two people, one is a classmate and the other is a friend.
Only now does Gu Chen realize that being caught in the middle is not a human feeling.
I finally know why Xiao Rui runs so fast?
Thinking about it sooner or later, Gu Chen simply shook his head and smiled, and also took the initiative to explain:
"Xiaolan, it's like this. You want to report the news that my classmate and teacher got married, but my classmate didn't know about it beforehand."
"I don't know?" Hearing Gu Chen's remarks, Bai Xiaolan couldn't help being taken aback, and quickly said:
"However, Xiao Rui said it was big news, and I asked him if he could do an interview? He told me that the groom is his classmate, it's just a matter of words."
Hearing what Bai Xiaolan said, Gu Chen looked at Xiao Rui who had run away, and knew that this guy was bragging about Bai Xiaolan.
Now being slapped in the face by Hu Jianan, this guy threw the blame on himself again, saying that this guy has become smoother in the past few years at the grassroots level, and his mouth is like running a train.
Thinking about it is also drunk.
But the matter over Hu Jianan must be clarified after all, so Gu Chen did not hide it, and explained straightforwardly:
"It's like this. My classmate Hu Jianan really didn't know about this matter. Xiao Rui made it up on his own. When the groom heard about it just now, he also looked depressed."
"Because the bride is his teacher, the groom's officer didn't even invite his classmates, because he was afraid that the bride would be stressed and embarrassed, so..."
"So we were let go?" Liu Jingru said with her beautiful eyes blinking.
Gu Chen was a little embarrassed, but still nodded helplessly.
Seeing this situation, Bai Xiaolan also said angrily: "This Xiao Rui is too unreliable, isn't he? At the beginning, he swore that the groom was his classmate, so he said all kinds of good things, and invited us to come here to participate in the wedding interview."
"But now, Xiao Rui patted his ass and left, leaving us here, what does that mean?"
Seeing that Bai Xiaolan was really anxious, Gu Chen also smiled lightly and said, "Of course it's not without a compromise."
"My classmate said that it's okay to report, but don't let him show his face with the bride, and the name of the report, don't use his real name, you can use Xiao Hu and Xiao Liu instead."
"That's fine, as long as one report can be collected and edited." As soon as Gu Chen finished speaking, the photographer Wu Jun came over and said.
Seeing that Gu Chen was a little embarrassed, Bai Xiaolan, who was still depressed just now, suddenly laughed and said, "Gu Chen, I'm just kidding you."
"Are you kidding me?" Gu Chen didn't quite understand.
Bai Xiaolan took a thick book "Yubei Town Chronicle" wrapped in a red cardboard directly from Liu Jingru's hand, raised it in her hand, and said with a smile on her face:
"Actually, we have planned to come to Yubei Town as early as possible. In fact, we also want to come here to shoot a set of promotional videos for Yubei Town."
"It just so happened that we received a call from Xiao Rui saying that he had a big piece of news, so we decided to come here to see if we can make some breaking news."
Shrugging his shoulders, Bai Xiaolan also said helplessly: "I just didn't expect that Xiao Rui would let us go. Damn, our enthusiasm was blinded for nothing."
"So it's like this?" Seeing that everyone didn't come here specially to interview the wedding, Gu Chen suddenly felt that the guilt wasn't so heavy.
But thinking that everyone should not return without success, Gu Chen hurriedly suggested: "How about this, I won't let you come in vain, I can provide you with some information about the bride and groom."
"As for the photos... Let's take a few exterior shots of the wedding, just don't let the bride and groom appear on the scene."
"Besides, since you are here to shoot the promotional video of Yubei Town, I can ask Xiao Rui to accompany you there after the wedding."
"After all, he is very familiar with this area, so he can't go wrong with being a tour guide."
"Okay." Bai Xiaolan looked around and said, "But we were not invited, so it would be embarrassing to stay here. Otherwise, you, Gu Chen, would be in charge of taking the photos on site."
"After the wedding banquet, you and Xiao Rui will come over to join us immediately, and I will send you our address at that time, what do you think?"
"Yes." Gu Chen feels that the method is feasible and saves each other's time.
"Then it's settled." Upon receiving Gu Chen's reply, Bai Xiaolan turned to Liu Jingru and Wu Jun and said, "Jingru, Teacher Wu, leave this to Gu Chen."
"At that time, we can ask Gu Chen for the material of the newsletter, and Gu Chen will also provide the photos and videos. Let's go to other places in Yubei Town to shoot now."
"Okay, then I'll trouble Gu Chen." Wu Jun didn't care.
Liu Jingru also nodded slightly.
After exchanging a few simple greetings, Bai Xiaolan, Liu Jingru, and Wu Jun left Hujia Village in a commercial vehicle.
Feeling that the situation here has finally been resolved, Gu Chen also breathed a sigh of relief.
After seeing off Bai Xiaolan and the others, Gu Chen came to the ancestral hall of Hujia Village.
Hu Jianan and Liu Shiyin's wedding was extremely lively, especially in the rural areas, and the folks in the village didn't pay too much attention.
The two relatives were also very happy.
After accepting the toast from the bride and groom, Gu Chen and Xiao Rui hurriedly left the ancestral hall after greeting each other. According to the location coordinates sent by Bai Xiaolan, Gu Chen drove directly and took Xiao Rui to meet up.
At 2 o'clock in the afternoon, under an ancient camphor tree.
Liu Jingru sat at a stone table, flipping through the "Yubei Town Chronicle" in her hand.
On the other side, photographer Wu Jun is adjusting the equipment.
Bai Xiaolan stood on the side and fanned the wind with her hands.
The weather in Jiangnan City has been extremely hot recently, which made such location shooting a little hard.
Seeing Gu Chen parked the car on the side of the road and walked towards her with Xiao Rui, Bai Xiaolan stepped forward to greet her and said, "Aren't you afraid that your old classmates will blame you for coming out so early?"
"Anyway, I've been 'offended', and I'm not afraid to offend again." In Xiao Rui's cognition, a negative is a positive.
Offended + offended = not offended.
Gu Chen also explained: "There are too many guests in the ancestral hall, and the bride and groom can't take care of them."
"So we came here to say hello, and it can be regarded as an apology to you, after all, let you go for nothing."
"Haha." Hearing Gu Chen's words, Bai Xiaolan couldn't help laughing twice.
At this moment, photographer Wu Jun had already finished his preparations, and reminded Liu Jingru, "Liu Jingru, get ready, three two ones will start."
Following Wu Jun's command, Liu Jingru immediately sat gracefully on the stone bench and flipped through the "Yubei Town Chronicle" on the stone table.
After several close-ups were completed, Wu Jun walked to the distance, put the camera on one side, picked up the set up drone to control, and said, "Okay, very good, now let's take an aerial shot and continue reading."
Liu Jingru has a strong sense of the camera, and continues to look at the book in her hand.
With the sound of "hum", the drone also slowly climbed to a height of one meter.
At this moment, Gu Chen, Xiao Rui, and Bai Xiaolan also surrounded Wu Jun, watching the screen on the controller.
"Look at the scenery on the left." Wu Jun reminded.
Hearing what the photographer Wu Jun said, Liu Jingru obeyed and looked to the left naturally.
"Okay, fine, that's it, keep it up."
After the voice fell, Wu Jun controlled the drone and adjusted the camera direction to the position where Liu Jingru was looking to the left.
As the drone continued to move forward, the camera also began to record the God's perspective of the ancient village.
At this time, Liu Jingru, who was wearing a white long dress, looked flawless in the sun, like a fairy, and against the background of green plants, she looked more gentle and flexible
Her long hair fluttered with the breeze.
The sky is as blue as dye, the clouds are as white as snow, and the warm sun illuminates the entire ancient village.
Everyone is quietly enjoying the beautiful scenery around them.
Gu Chen suddenly looked at Bai Xiaolan curiously, and asked in a low voice, "By the way, Xiaolan, I heard from Lu Weiwei that you want to be a program producer?"
"That's right." Bai Xiaolan grinned and said with some embarrassment:
"I don't have that strength yet, but the director said that I can consider letting me develop in this area, but I have to bring an apprentice to ensure that the column of "Positive Energy in Action" and some outdoor shootings have models that can go abroad."
Looking at Liu Jingru in front of her, Bai Xiaolan said with a look of relief: "Did you see that, now I have found it, this is the cultural tourism image ambassador that we spent a lot of effort to invite to join."
"With Liu Jingru here, I can reduce a lot of shooting tasks. Now I want her to integrate into our shooting understanding as much as possible and adapt to our shooting rhythm as soon as possible."
Hearing Bai Xiaolan's remarks, Xiao Rui also asked hesitantly: "But I heard that the column producer is under a lot of pressure. Isn't it good for you, Bai Xiaolan, to be a host reporter or something?"
"Besides, you still have a trump card program in your hand, "Positive Energy in Action", isn't it safe and sound?"
"Not good." As soon as Xiao Rui finished speaking, Bai Xiaolan shook her head: "I feel like I've reached a career bottleneck."
"I have almost won all the honors that should be won in the station in the past few years, but if I continue to develop at this pace, when I reach a certain age, then I will be replaced by some younger people from radio and television."
"So, I have to prepare in advance and transform as soon as possible, so as not to make my career too passive."
"It's good to have a sense of urgency." Hearing what Bai Xiaolan said, Gu Chen also admired it very much.
At least be prepared for danger in times of peace, which in itself is the attitude that a professional should have.
Bai Xiaolan also grinned, and said helplessly, "I'm not afraid of being silent in this era, I'm just afraid that like many people, I'm addicted to short-term enjoyment and pleasure."
"If you don't read, don't think, you can't learn to listen, and you don't have a sense of crisis."
"So if one day, when the good times come, I will find myself empty-handed, and even dragged down by impetuousness and sadness."
With a faint sigh, Bai Xiaolan was also quite helpless: "If I can't bring out anything decent to dedicate to this life full of tears, then I think it is different from the walking dead?"
"Hehe." Hearing Bai Xiaolan's remarks, Xiao Rui couldn't help laughing and said: "You think a lot, but I feel that we don't need to be worthy of life, but we must be worthy of ourselves."
"En." Bai Xiaolan nodded slightly, glanced at Gu Chen who was at the side, and asked, "Gu Chen, what do you think?"
"I think?" Gu Chen thought briefly for two seconds, then smiled thoughtfully:
"I think you can take some painkillers when you are in pain, but painkillers can only paralyze you, they can't save you."
"It's like I'm tired of books, I thought I blocked the teacher, but what I blocked was my own future."
"Then remove the book and welcome a bright future." Bai Xiaolan said while looking at Gu Chen.
Gu Chen nodded slightly: "Maybe what we lost is exactly what we shouldn't have."
"You have to understand that reading is not as good as writing a book. Life is about expression, not narration, but more about emotions, love, insignificant sincerity, and... dispensable attachments, as long as I like it. .”
Seeing that Bai Xiaolan seems to be under a lot of pressure recently, Gu Chen also said with a light smile: "After all, people only live once, so it's good to be worthy of yourself, why should you care so much?"
"I think you have been under too much pressure recently, and some of you think too much, so that you collapse yourself tightly."
"The last time I interviewed Hu Fanzhen in Jiangbei City and Ye Juanjuan in our Jiangnan City, I could see that you are not as open-minded and open-minded as before."
"Uh, did you see all of this?" Hearing Gu Chen's remarks, Bai Xiaolan couldn't help laughing dryly, and said helplessly:
"You have to know that most of the colleagues who entered the TV station with me as interns have now changed careers."
"Some went to open a Korean-style office barbecue, some went to the Jiangnan City Fire Brigade to start a We-Media official account, and some became independent photographers."
"And if I hadn't produced this popular column "Positive Energy in Action" with Teacher Wu because I hugged your thigh, Gu Chen, I would probably still be a little reporter who is content with the status quo. Not much to achieve."
Taking a deep breath, Bai Xiaolan said again: "One's life should be spent in this way, one will not regret for wasting one's life, and one will not be ashamed for doing nothing."
"It's not going to be as good as we thought it would be, and it won't be as bad as we thought it would be."
"Sometimes I struggle with my own future, so now I'm turning in the direction of a producer."
Turning her head to look at Gu Chen, Bai Xiaolan said again: "Recently, I've been talking with Yuan's Group about sponsorship projects, and I want to take the FPV cross-travel competition project into my own hands."
"FPV traversing machine competition?" Hearing that Bai Xiaolan was holding it, Xiao Rui couldn't help being stunned, and hurriedly asked, "What kind of stuff is this?"
"Drone racing." Gu Chen explained.
"That's right." Bai Xiaolan nodded silently, and said without distinction: "Drone racing is a new technological sport in recent years. Together with e-sports and robot fighting, it is also called the three major intelligent technological sports."
Looking at the photographer Wu Jun who was operating the drone for aerial photography in front of him, Bai Xiaolan said again:
"However, this kind of competition is different from common photography drones. Racing drones can reach a maximum speed of 230 kilometers per hour."
"No, what is the maximum speed?" Hearing Bai Xiaolan's remarks, Xiao Rui looked incredulous: "230 kilometers per hour? This is almost catching up with the speed of the high-speed rail. Is it so scary?"
"It's normal." Seeing Xiao Rui making a fuss, Gu Chen also explained with a smile:
"As far as I know, this kind of traversing machine can accelerate from 1 km to 100 km in less than 1 second."
"Technically, it involves disciplines such as aerodynamics, software, and electronic engineering, and requires extremely high requirements for the pilot's on-the-spot response and control skills."
After a pause, seeing Xiao Rui's confused face, Gu Chen said again:
"Because of the extreme speed of this traversing machine, this kind of drone racing is also called 'air F1'."
"Then what do you guys mean by FPV?" Xiao Rui was totally Xiaobai's, and he seemed unable to get in the middle of the conversation between Bai Xiaolan and Gu Chen.
Gu Chen grinned and continued to explain: "The so-called FPV is actually the existence of the first-person perspective system, which allows pilots and spectators to watch the flight racing process in real time through the drone camera and experience the feeling of sitting in the cockpit. .”
"For example, when you wear a head-mounted display that transmits video from the perspective of a flying drone, some pilots even describe this as a 'spirit out of body'. , seeing various scenes of your flight."
"The degree of excitement is no less than that of an F1 car. It is actually an experience of flying a fighter jet at high speed by yourself."
"So it's like this?" Hearing what Gu Chen said, Xiao Rui probably understood what was going on, and couldn't help but admire:
"That's amazing, you want to undertake the broadcast of this program?"
"Yes." Bai Xiaolan nodded slightly, and said involuntarily, "I have already contacted the relevant associations and teams of the domestic FPV racing competition, and I plan to negotiate with them to set up one of the competition sub-stations in Jiangnan City."
"At that time, our Jiangnan City TV station will record the whole broadcast, and I have already discussed this project with the director, who is very supportive, but..."
In the middle of speaking, Bai Xiaolan suddenly hesitated again.
"But what?" Gu Chen and Xiao Rui said in unison.
"But...but the director said that this project can be entrusted to me, but I need to handle the later sponsorship by myself."
"Because there is no commercial value without sponsorship, this project will not make money, so I have been in contact with the entertainment business group of Yuan Group recently, hoping to get commercial sponsorship from Yuan Group."
"As for the venues of these competitions, we have roughly finalized some details. Even during this period, some members of domestic FPV racing clubs will come here for inspection and training."
Taking a deep breath, Bai Xiaolan said, "So, now you all know how stressed I am?"
"In fact, it is really not easy to be a good producer, and the risk of losing money in the project is really great."
"If there is no support from the sponsors behind them, there is almost no need for these projects to start."
With a faint sigh, Bai Xiaolan was also quite helpless: "But fortunately, I have the popular column "Positive Energy in Action" in my hand, which has certain commercial value."
"Furthermore, the Yuan Group's entertainment business group has always sponsored our column, so I talked to them about this project this time, and they are willing to try it, but we are still discussing the sponsorship fee in detail. What will happen in the end? Not finalized."
Looking at Gu Chen, Bai Xiaolan couldn't help but smile wryly: "Gu Chen, what do you think I should do? I feel like I'm going all out this time. A young host like me dares to take on a project that many old producers dare not do. .”
"Furthermore, projects such as the FPV traversing machine racing competition are still in the early stages in China, and the audience is not very large, so the risks to be faced are also great, and the commercial realization ability belongs to the exploratory stage."
Sitting on a boulder, Bai Xiaolan rested her hands on her chin, and said with emotion: "Gu Chen, you said this, should I do it or not?"
Hearing Bai Xiaolan's words, Gu Chen didn't answer immediately, but after a few seconds of contemplation, he gave a suggestion:
"Xiaolan, I can't answer your question, because I don't know much about this project, and I haven't investigated it, but I can share with you a technique that you can definitely use."
"Huh?" Hearing what Gu Chen said, Bai Xiaolan became interested immediately, and hurriedly approached Gu Chen, asking for advice, "Tell me."
"That's right, Gu Chen, tell me." Xiao Rui who was on the side was also quite interested.
Gu Chen crossed his arms and said thoughtfully: "When you really want to do something, but your heart or someone tells you that you can't do it, you can ask yourself, if you can do it, you can't do it." Will it die?"
"Uh..." Hearing Gu Chen's words, Bai Xiaolan was stunned, and asked again: "So...so?"
"If you're going to die, forget it, if you're not going to die, just let me do it right away." Gu Chen said.
Bai Xiaolan nodded slightly: "I thought so too at the time, but I didn't feel courageous."
"But sometimes I think about it, if I don't do it, I might live like a fool in the future."
"Hehe." Gu Chen laughed dryly when he heard the words, shook his head, and said, "Xiao Lan, let me tell you a secret at the end, do you know what you will die if you do it?"
"Uh……"
Bai Xiaolan's eyes widened, and she began to hesitate.
But Gu Chen blurted out: "That's right, you will die in the end if you do anything, and the only one who can stop you is yourself."
"I understand."
Hearing what Gu Chen said, Bai Xiaolan suddenly became enlightened, and said with a long sigh of relief: "Listening to you, Gu Chen, is just comfortable."
"After the filming task here is completed, I will contact the Yuan Group when I go back. I must get the sponsorship. For this project, I am bound to win it. I have to let the entertainment business group of the Yuan Group see my determination. "
Bai Xiaolan suddenly seemed to be a different person.
After all, this is my first battle as a producer. If the event fails, my confidence in becoming a producer in the future will be greatly affected.
On this side, Bai Xiaolan was still holding on to a desperate mentality, brewing her emotions, but on the other side, she heard the photographer Wu Jun not far away yelling "Damn!"
...
Following the direction of Bai Xiaolan's waving, everyone turned their eyes to her. Not long after, I saw a young woman in a long white dress walking out of the commercial vehicle slowly, carrying a booklet in her hand. The woman has a delicate appearance, with a flawless white complexion, a clear and white face, and a playful smile around her small mouth. The sun shines in her clear eyes, like two bright pearls. Coming to Bai Xiaolan, the young woman said softly, "Sister Xiaolan, I haven't finished reading the "Yubei Town Chronicle" that I borrowed from Yubei Town." "No hurry, let me introduce you to a few friends." Bai Xiaolan brought the woman in the white dress to him, and introduced them to Gu Chen and Xiao Rui: "This is my new colleague Liu Jingru, who just came to the TV station not long ago, and will follow me in the future, mainly responsible for some location shooting and post-editing production, that is, sharing some of the work between me and Mr. Wu." After the words fell, Xiao Rui was stunned for a moment, and then he couldn't help but said with emotion: "Reporter Bai, I think you should have a sense of crisis, right?" "A sense of crisis?" Bai Xiaolan scratched the back of her head, not quite understanding. Xiao Rui gave a "tsk", and then said again: "I see your TV station, you can be called a beauty harvester. I used to think that you were the beauty of the TV station." "But seeing Liu Jingru now, I have to say with a cheeky face that you are the only one in charge of beauty. You two are on par in both figure and appearance. Don't you feel pressured to partner with such a beautiful woman? " "Pfft!" Hearing what Xiao Rui said, Bai Xiaolan couldn't help laughing out loud: "Pressure? Of course, but I don't care!" "You don't care?" Xiao Rui also smacked his mouth, feeling unbelievable. "Yes." Bai Xiaolan nodded slightly, and also explained: "Before this, I was always touted as the first sister of the TV station by others, which made me feel a lot of pressure. Invisibly... I became a thorn in the side of the female colleagues in the TV station for no reason." "It's like I want to be the first sister of the TV station? It's not good to always be criticized behind my back. I just want to do my own show well, and I don't want to be the first sister." Glancing at Liu Jingru beside her, Bai Xiaolan pulled her to her side and said with a smile on her face: "If you say, can Liu Jingru be the first sister of the TV station? I think...she is not inferior to me in terms of temperament or talent." "And you may not know, she is our cultural tourism in Jiangnan City..." "She is one of the top ten contestants for our Jiangnan City Cultural Tourism Image Ambassador." Before Bai Xiaolan could finish speaking here, Gu Chen answered directly. Bai Xiaolan was taken aback, and quickly asked Gu Chen, "How do you know?" "Because I seem to have seen her somewhere before." Gu Chen was also thoughtful. Bai Xiaolan was stunned, then turned to look at Liu Jingru beside her. Liu Jingru also scratched the back of her head, and asked Gu Chen with some surprise: "But... But why don't I seem to have seen you?" "I have been studying in a foreign university before, and I participated in the activity of this cultural tourism image ambassador, which was also completed in my last year of study. I really don't remember where I met you?" "That's right, Gu Chen, how did you meet her?" Xiao Rui felt that he seemed to be a beat slower than Gu Chen in knowing people. After Gu Chen thought for a few seconds, he recalled and said, "In the circle of friends." "Friend... In the circle of friends?" When everyone heard the words, they also spoke in unison. Gu Chen nodded silently, and explained to everyone: "Because the vice chairman of the Jiangnan City Federation of Literary and Art Circles is my friend, I have some acquaintance with the members of the major associations in Jiangnan City." "I remember that on the day of the final of the Jiangnan City Cultural Tourism Image Ambassador, several friends from the vice president of the Jiangnan Film and Television Artists Association gave me a media card and invited me to watch the performance at the VIP seats." "But because of the busy temporary work, I didn't go to participate, but I saw those friends frantically swiping the screen in the circle of friends." After a pause, when everyone looked at him dumbfounded, Gu Chen also smiled and said: "You know, those people who don't post a Moments for a month, suddenly send more than a dozen Moments in a day to refresh the screen, and the screen is full of photos and videos of live games. It's hard for you not to see it. " "So?" Liu Jingru was stunned. "So I was in the circle of friends and saw that you won the award of the top ten cultural tourism image masters in Jiangnan City." Gu Chen said. "So that's the case?" Hearing Gu Chen's explanation, Liu Jingru nodded silently, also embarrassedly said: "I didn't perform very well that day, I was too nervous, and it was the first time I participated in this kind of competition." "But when you were in middle school, you already represented the school and won awards frequently." As soon as Liu Jingru finished speaking, Gu Chen interjected. Liu Jingru lowered her head shyly, and asked weakly, "How do you know this?" "You graduated from Jiangnan No. 1 Middle School. I saw your award-winning poster in the province when I went back to my alma mater." "Later, I saw your award-winning dynamics in my circle of friends, so I felt deja vu." Gu Chen also told the truth, after all, Liu Jingru has a special temperament, just like Gu Chen, it is the kind that can be found at a glance when thrown in the crowd. Therefore, Gu Chen still has an impression of the school girl in front of him. Bai Xiaolan slapped her head when she heard the words, and suddenly realized: "I almost forgot, you both graduated from the same school, no wonder I haven't introduced you clearly yet, you Gu Chen said you met her." "So it's a school girl?" As soon as Bai Xiaolan finished speaking, Xiao Rui stretched out his hand and smiled familiarly: "Hello, Liu Jingru, it seems that we are alumni, and I also graduated from Jiangnan No. 1 Middle School. My name is Xiao Rui, and I am the university student village official and deputy secretary here." When Xiao Rui heard about Liu Jingru's situation, he immediately became enthusiastic. "Hello, Senior Xiao." Liu Jingru gently held Xiao Rui's finger and greeted her. Xiao Rui also smiled, spread his hands and said, "I said, you have a kind of dignified, gorgeous, elegant and generous look at you." "So you are the image ambassador of Jiangnan City's cultural tourism? From this point of view, it really fits your temperament." Looking Liu Jingru up and down, Xiao Rui said again: "Tsk tsk, look at your temperament, what is there a saying? It is just right to describe you." "Yin is dressed in snow, and his air is as elegant as tea." Xiao Rui didn't know which vocabulary to use to flatter him, so Gu Chen answered for him. Xiao Rui froze for a moment, then shook his fingers and said, "That's right, that's Yin Ren, who is dressed in snow and looks as elegant as tea, I don't know, but I thought you were Snow White who ran out of that castle? " Seeing Xiao Rui's flattery, Bai Xiaolan instantly felt that she was not well. You know, when Xiao Rui met him for the first time, he praised him without any bottom line, which made him feel ecstatic, and felt like he was going to be praised to the sky. Seeing Liu Jingru now, Xiao Rui repeated his old tricks, and he might have to ask for the WeChat number later. Just as Bai Xiaolan thought of this, Xiao Rui on the side smiled and said, "Why don't you add a WeChat? I know this area well, and I'll take you there to take pictures of the human landscape later." "And don't you want to share the work of Reporter Bai and Teacher Wu?" Xiao Rui patted his chest, and said proudly: "I am the deputy secretary here, and I will be transferred to Yubei Town soon. Correspondent in Beizhen." "In the future, if you come to Yubei Town, don't say anything else, let me know if you need help, and I will make arrangements for you." While speaking, Xiao Rui took out his mobile phone and prepared to add Liu Jingru as a WeChat friend. Liu Jingru felt a little embarrassed, and couldn't help but sneak a glance in Bai Xiaolan's direction. Bai Xiaolan understood, and interrupted with a smile: "Xiao Rui, Liu Jingru will follow me from now on. If you have any good news, you can send it to me. It's the same if I arrange for Liu Jingru." After the words fell, before Xiao Rui could say anything else, Bai Xiaolan immediately pulled Liu Jingru to Gu Chen, and introduced her: "Jingru, this is Gu Chen, the noble person I work for, the youngest captain of the criminal investigation team in the history of the Furong branch, and a resident guest of our "Positive Energy in Action" column." "At the beginning, like you, I was also a trainee reporter for a TV station, but since Gu Chen's help, my career has slowly improved." "And Gu Chen was the head of the interview department and photographer of your school's press corps before, so he is familiar with our work." "If you have any questions that you don't understand, you can ask Gu Chen and learn from him. Moreover, Gu Chen has quite a lot of experience in handling cases. He once represented the Jiangnan City Police Force in a joint mission to Italy in Europe." Seeing Liu Jingru nodding like a chicken pecking at rice, Bai Xiaolan said again: "Gu Chen is full of treasures, any experience is enough for you to publish a report, in short, he is the best policeman I have ever seen . "In the words of our director, Gu Chen is a super policeman." "Is this... so exaggerated?" Listening to Bai Xiaolan tirelessly introducing Gu Chen here, Liu Jingru felt a little confused. Seeing this, Wu Jun, the photographer at the side, came over with a smile and said, "Jingru, don't believe me, what Xiaolan said is true, and I can also testify to that." "Yeah." Seeing that Bai Xiaolan and the photographer Wu Jun were both endorsing Gu Chen, Liu Jingru suddenly felt that the handsome policeman in front of her seemed to feel a little incomprehensible. Seeing himself chatting, suddenly being marginalized, suddenly becoming a transparent human attribute, Xiao Rui also looked depressed. When I saw Gu Chen before, I thought Gu Chen was just a small policeman with some work experience. But now it is discovered that Gu Chen is not only a small policeman, but also the youngest captain of the criminal investigation team in the Furong branch. Xiao Rui of the Furong Branch knows that it is also a relatively large organization, but Gu Chen has only been working for a few years, and he has already become the captain of the criminal investigation team. It can be seen that Gu Chen has already surpassed 99% of his peers, and he is one of the 99%. Just now I was bragging in front of Gu Chen, saying that I have known many people over the years. But after listening to Gu Chen, I realized that this guy's network of connections is simply terrifying. The vice chairman of the Federation of Literary and Art Circles, the chairman of the association, the ace host and cameraman of the TV station, I feel like there is no one that Gu Chen doesn't know. Xiao Rui suddenly had a sense of self-knowledge that those outstanding classmates back then might be even better in the future. Looking back, I have indeed made some small achievements in the past few years, and even Xiao Rui himself thinks that this is a kind of counterattack performance. But now it seems that the kind of counterattack and achievement that Xiao Rui thinks is really not worth mentioning in front of Gu Chen. The ace host and reporter of the TV station that I know already belong to a very strong network in my cognition. But this ace host reporter or something regards Gu Chen as a professional benefactor. In comparison, Xiao Rui could suddenly understand that he had talked all kinds of boasting in front of Gu Chen just now, but Gu Chen's reaction was very calm. At that time, did you feel that Gu Chen was a little jealous of his achievements? Feeling unbalanced? That's why he deliberately showed a normal reaction expression? But now it seems that he has wrongly blamed Gu Chen. Just looking at Bai Xiaolan, Liu Jingru and Wu Jun talking and laughing with Gu Chen, Xiao Rui knows that these people are old friends with Gu Chen. And in this circle, he is a complete outsider. Thinking about the fact that people are more popular than people, it seems to be the same reason. Xiao Rui, who is marginalized here, is still reflecting on himself. On the other side, seeing that Gu Chen and Xiao Rui are both in Hujia Village at the same time, Liu Jingru also asked curiously: "By the way, Senior Gu Chen, since you are the groom's classmate, you can definitely take us to meet the groom, right? We are here this time to interview the couple." Hearing Liu Jingru's remarks, Gu Chen was suddenly a little embarrassed, and couldn't help but look at Xiao Rui beside him. Xiao Rui, who is a transparent person, was stunned for a while, and found that he hadn't explained the business clearly to everyone after chatting for a long time. Thinking about this matter, it was all caused by myself. Now that I refuse the TV station's interview request face to face, where will I save my face? Feeling a little embarrassed, Xiao Rui remembered that there was Gu Chen beside him, and immediately looked at Gu Chen and said: "Gu...Gu Chen, since we are all acquaintances, then...then you can explain to them, Hu Jianan seemed to want me to help come here just now, and the feast is about to start soon, I have to Hurry over and help." "But" When Gu Chen heard Xiao Rui's speech, he thought that Hu Jianan didn't seem to ask you to help him, did he? But in the middle of the conversation, Xiao Rui interrupted wittily: "But you also want to help, right? No need, you stay here to accompany the friends of the TV station, that's it. If you have anything to ask Gu Chen, Gu Chen will I will arrange everything for you, and I will excuse you first." "Ugh?" Seeing Xiao Rui turning his head and running away, Bai Xiaolan was dumbfounded, and couldn't help saying: "This Xiao Rui, usually likes to rub the camera the most, what's wrong with him today?" After finishing speaking, Bai Xiaolan looked at Gu Chen again and said, "Gu Chen, what about the interview for your friend's wedding?" "Uh, that's how it is." Feeling that Xiao Rui was throwing the blame on himself and asking himself to clean up the mess for him, Gu Chen felt embarrassed for a while. But after all, there are two people, one is a classmate and the other is a friend. Only now does Gu Chen realize that being caught in the middle is not a human feeling. I finally know why Xiao Rui runs so fast? Thinking about it sooner or later, Gu Chen simply shook his head and smiled, and also took the initiative to explain: "Xiaolan, it's like this. You want to report the news that my classmate and teacher got married, but my classmate didn't know about it beforehand." "I don't know?" Hearing Gu Chen's remarks, Bai Xiaolan couldn't help being taken aback, and quickly said: "However, Xiao Rui said it was big news, and I asked him if he could do an interview? He told me that the groom is his classmate, it's just a matter of words." Hearing what Bai Xiaolan said, Gu Chen looked at Xiao Rui who had run away, and knew that this guy was bragging about Bai Xiaolan. Now being slapped in the face by Hu Jianan, this guy threw the blame on himself again, saying that this guy has become smoother in the past few years at the grassroots level, and his mouth is like running a train. Thinking about it is also drunk. But the matter over Hu Jianan must be clarified after all, so Gu Chen did not hide it, and explained straightforwardly: "It's like this. My classmate Hu Jianan really didn't know about this matter. Xiao Rui made it up on his own. When the groom heard about it just now, he also looked depressed." "Because the bride is his teacher, the groom's officer didn't even invite his classmates, because he was afraid that the bride would be stressed and embarrassed, so..." "So we were let go?" Liu Jingru said with her beautiful eyes blinking. Gu Chen was a little embarrassed, but still nodded helplessly. Seeing this situation, Bai Xiaolan also said angrily: "This Xiao Rui is too unreliable, isn't he? At the beginning, he swore that the groom was his classmate, so he said all kinds of good things, and invited us to come here to participate in the wedding interview." "But now, Xiao Rui patted his ass and left, leaving us here, what does that mean?" Seeing that Bai Xiaolan was really anxious, Gu Chen also smiled lightly and said, "Of course it's not without a compromise." "My classmate said that it's okay to report, but don't let him show his face with the bride, and the name of the report, don't use his real name, you can use Xiao Hu and Xiao Liu instead." "That's fine, as long as one report can be collected and edited." As soon as Gu Chen finished speaking, the photographer Wu Jun came over and said. Seeing that Gu Chen was a little embarrassed, Bai Xiaolan, who was still depressed just now, suddenly laughed and said, "Gu Chen, I'm just kidding you." "Are you kidding me?" Gu Chen didn't quite understand. Bai Xiaolan took a thick book "Yubei Town Chronicle" wrapped in a red cardboard directly from Liu Jingru's hand, raised it in her hand, and said with a smile on her face: "Actually, we have planned to come to Yubei Town as early as possible. In fact, we also want to come here to shoot a set of promotional videos for Yubei Town." "It just so happened that we received a call from Xiao Rui saying that he had a big piece of news, so we decided to come here to see if we can make some breaking news." Shrugging his shoulders, Bai Xiaolan also said helplessly: "I just didn't expect that Xiao Rui would let us go. Damn, our enthusiasm was blinded for nothing." "So it's like this?" Seeing that everyone didn't come here specially to interview the wedding, Gu Chen suddenly felt that the guilt wasn't so heavy. But thinking that everyone should not return without success, Gu Chen hurriedly suggested: "How about this, I won't let you come in vain, I can provide you with some information about the bride and groom." "As for the photos... Let's take a few exterior shots of the wedding, just don't let the bride and groom appear on the scene." "Besides, since you are here to shoot the promotional video of Yubei Town, I can ask Xiao Rui to accompany you there after the wedding." "After all, he is very familiar with this area, so he can't go wrong with being a tour guide." "Okay." Bai Xiaolan looked around and said, "But we were not invited, so it would be embarrassing to stay here. Otherwise, you, Gu Chen, would be in charge of taking the photos on site." "After the wedding banquet, you and Xiao Rui will come over to join us immediately, and I will send you our address at that time, what do you think?" "Yes." Gu Chen feels that the method is feasible and saves each other's time. "Then it's settled." Upon receiving Gu Chen's reply, Bai Xiaolan turned to Liu Jingru and Wu Jun and said, "Jingru, Teacher Wu, leave this to Gu Chen." "At that time, we can ask Gu Chen for the material of the newsletter, and Gu Chen will also provide the photos and videos. Let's go to other places in Yubei Town to shoot now." "Okay, then I'll trouble Gu Chen." Wu Jun didn't care. Liu Jingru also nodded slightly. After exchanging a few simple greetings, Bai Xiaolan, Liu Jingru, and Wu Jun left Hujia Village in a commercial vehicle. Feeling that the situation here has finally been resolved, Gu Chen also breathed a sigh of relief. After seeing off Bai Xiaolan and the others, Gu Chen came to the ancestral hall of Hujia Village. Hu Jianan and Liu Shiyin's wedding was extremely lively, especially in the rural areas, and the folks in the village didn't pay too much attention. The two relatives were also very happy. After accepting the toast from the bride and groom, Gu Chen and Xiao Rui hurriedly left the ancestral hall after greeting each other. According to the location coordinates sent by Bai Xiaolan, Gu Chen drove directly and took Xiao Rui to meet up. At 2 o'clock in the afternoon, under an ancient camphor tree. Liu Jingru sat at a stone table, flipping through the "Yubei Town Chronicle" in her hand. On the other side, photographer Wu Jun is adjusting the equipment. Bai Xiaolan stood on the side and fanned the wind with her hands. The weather in Jiangnan City has been extremely hot recently, which made such location shooting a little hard. Seeing Gu Chen parked the car on the side of the road and walked towards her with Xiao Rui, Bai Xiaolan stepped forward to greet her and said, "Aren't you afraid that your old classmates will blame you for coming out so early?" "Anyway, I've been 'offended', and I'm not afraid to offend again." In Xiao Rui's cognition, a negative is a positive. Offended + offended = not offended. Gu Chen also explained: "There are too many guests in the ancestral hall, and the bride and groom can't take care of them." "So we came here to say hello, and it can be regarded as an apology to you, after all, let you go for nothing." "Haha." Hearing Gu Chen's words, Bai Xiaolan couldn't help laughing twice. At this moment, photographer Wu Jun had already finished his preparations, and reminded Liu Jingru, "Liu Jingru, get ready, three two ones will start." Following Wu Jun's command, Liu Jingru immediately sat gracefully on the stone bench and flipped through the "Yubei Town Chronicle" on the stone table. After several close-ups were completed, Wu Jun walked to the distance, put the camera on one side, picked up the set up drone to control, and said, "Okay, very good, now let's take an aerial shot and continue reading." Liu Jingru has a strong sense of the camera, and continues to look at the book in her hand. With the sound of "hum", the drone also slowly climbed to a height of one meter. At this moment, Gu Chen, Xiao Rui, and Bai Xiaolan also surrounded Wu Jun, watching the screen on the controller. "Look at the scenery on the left." Wu Jun reminded. Hearing what the photographer Wu Jun said, Liu Jingru obeyed and looked to the left naturally. "Okay, fine, that's it, keep it up." After the voice fell, Wu Jun controlled the drone and adjusted the camera direction to the position where Liu Jingru was looking to the left. As the drone continued to move forward, the camera also began to record the God's perspective of the ancient village. At this time, Liu Jingru, who was wearing a white long dress, looked flawless in the sun, like a fairy, and against the background of green plants, she looked more gentle and flexible Her long hair fluttered with the breeze. The sky is as blue as dye, the clouds are as white as snow, and the warm sun illuminates the entire ancient village. Everyone is quietly enjoying the beautiful scenery around them. Gu Chen suddenly looked at Bai Xiaolan curiously, and asked in a low voice, "By the way, Xiaolan, I heard from Lu Weiwei that you want to be a program producer?" "That's right." Bai Xiaolan grinned and said with some embarrassment: "I don't have that strength yet, but the director said that I can consider letting me develop in this area, but I have to bring an apprentice to ensure that the column of "Positive Energy in Action" and some outdoor shootings have models that can go abroad." Looking at Liu Jingru in front of her, Bai Xiaolan said with a look of relief: "Did you see that, now I have found it, this is the cultural tourism image ambassador that we spent a lot of effort to invite to join." "With Liu Jingru here, I can reduce a lot of shooting tasks. Now I want her to integrate into our shooting understanding as much as possible and adapt to our shooting rhythm as soon as possible." Hearing Bai Xiaolan's remarks, Xiao Rui also asked hesitantly: "But I heard that the column producer is under a lot of pressure. Isn't it good for you, Bai Xiaolan, to be a host reporter or something?" "Besides, you still have a trump card program in your hand, "Positive Energy in Action", isn't it safe and sound?" "Not good." As soon as Xiao Rui finished speaking, Bai Xiaolan shook her head: "I feel like I've reached a career bottleneck." "I have almost won all the honors that should be won in the station in the past few years, but if I continue to develop at this pace, when I reach a certain age, then I will be replaced by some younger people from radio and television." "So, I have to prepare in advance and transform as soon as possible, so as not to make my career too passive." "It's good to have a sense of urgency." Hearing what Bai Xiaolan said, Gu Chen also admired it very much. At least be prepared for danger in times of peace, which in itself is the attitude that a professional should have. Bai Xiaolan also grinned, and said helplessly, "I'm not afraid of being silent in this era, I'm just afraid that like many people, I'm addicted to short-term enjoyment and pleasure." "If you don't read, don't think, you can't learn to listen, and you don't have a sense of crisis." "So if one day, when the good times come, I will find myself empty-handed, and even dragged down by impetuousness and sadness." With a faint sigh, Bai Xiaolan was also quite helpless: "If I can't bring out anything decent to dedicate to this life full of tears, then I think it is different from the walking dead?" "Hehe." Hearing Bai Xiaolan's remarks, Xiao Rui couldn't help laughing and said: "You think a lot, but I feel that we don't need to be worthy of life, but we must be worthy of ourselves." "En." Bai Xiaolan nodded slightly, glanced at Gu Chen who was at the side, and asked, "Gu Chen, what do you think?" "I think?" Gu Chen thought briefly for two seconds, then smiled thoughtfully: "I think you can take some painkillers when you are in pain, but painkillers can only paralyze you, they can't save you." "It's like I'm tired of books, I thought I blocked the teacher, but what I blocked was my own future." "Then remove the book and welcome a bright future." Bai Xiaolan said while looking at Gu Chen. Gu Chen nodded slightly: "Maybe what we lost is exactly what we shouldn't have." "You have to understand that reading is not as good as writing a book. Life is about expression, not narration, but more about emotions, love, insignificant sincerity, and... dispensable attachments, as long as I like it. . Seeing that Bai Xiaolan seems to be under a lot of pressure recently, Gu Chen also said with a light smile: "After all, people only live once, so it's good to be worthy of yourself, why should you care so much?" "I think you have been under too much pressure recently, and some of you think too much, so that you collapse yourself tightly." "The last time I interviewed Hu Fanzhen in Jiangbei City and Ye Juanjuan in our Jiangnan City, I could see that you are not as open-minded and open-minded as before." "Uh, did you see all of this?" Hearing Gu Chen's remarks, Bai Xiaolan couldn't help laughing dryly, and said helplessly: "You have to know that most of the colleagues who entered the TV station with me as interns have now changed careers." "Some went to open a Korean-style office barbecue, some went to the Jiangnan City Fire Brigade to start a We-Media official account, and some became independent photographers." "And if I hadn't produced this popular column "Positive Energy in Action" with Teacher Wu because I hugged your thigh, Gu Chen, I would probably still be a little reporter who is content with the status quo. Not much to achieve." Taking a deep breath, Bai Xiaolan said again: "One's life should be spent in this way, one will not regret for wasting one's life, and one will not be ashamed for doing nothing." "It's not going to be as good as we thought it would be, and it won't be as bad as we thought it would be." "Sometimes I struggle with my own future, so now I'm turning in the direction of a producer." Turning her head to look at Gu Chen, Bai Xiaolan said again: "Recently, I've been talking with Yuan's Group about sponsorship projects, and I want to take the FPV cross-travel competition project into my own hands." "FPV traversing machine competition?" Hearing that Bai Xiaolan was holding it, Xiao Rui couldn't help being stunned, and hurriedly asked, "What kind of stuff is this?" "Drone racing." Gu Chen explained. "That's right." Bai Xiaolan nodded silently, and said without distinction: "Drone racing is a new technological sport in recent years. Together with e-sports and robot fighting, it is also called the three major intelligent technological sports." Looking at the photographer Wu Jun who was operating the drone for aerial photography in front of him, Bai Xiaolan said again: "However, this kind of competition is different from common photography drones. Racing drones can reach a maximum speed of 230 kilometers per hour." "No, what is the maximum speed?" Hearing Bai Xiaolan's remarks, Xiao Rui looked incredulous: "230 kilometers per hour? This is almost catching up with the speed of the high-speed rail. Is it so scary?" "It's normal." Seeing Xiao Rui making a fuss, Gu Chen also explained with a smile: "As far as I know, this kind of traversing machine can accelerate from 1 km to 100 km in less than 1 second." "Technically, it involves disciplines such as aerodynamics, software, and electronic engineering, and requires extremely high requirements for the pilot's on-the-spot response and control skills." After a pause, seeing Xiao Rui's confused face, Gu Chen said again: "Because of the extreme speed of this traversing machine, this kind of drone racing is also called 'air F1'." "Then what do you guys mean by FPV?" Xiao Rui was totally Xiaobai's, and he seemed unable to get in the middle of the conversation between Bai Xiaolan and Gu Chen. Gu Chen grinned and continued to explain: "The so-called FPV is actually the existence of the first-person perspective system, which allows pilots and spectators to watch the flight racing process in real time through the drone camera and experience the feeling of sitting in the cockpit. . "For example, when you wear a head-mounted display that transmits video from the perspective of a flying drone, some pilots even describe this as a 'spirit out of body'. , seeing various scenes of your flight." "The degree of excitement is no less than that of an F1 car. It is actually an experience of flying a fighter jet at high speed by yourself." "So it's like this?" Hearing what Gu Chen said, Xiao Rui probably understood what was going on, and couldn't help but admire: "That's amazing, you want to undertake the broadcast of this program?" "Yes." Bai Xiaolan nodded slightly, and said involuntarily, "I have already contacted the relevant associations and teams of the domestic FPV racing competition, and I plan to negotiate with them to set up one of the competition sub-stations in Jiangnan City." "At that time, our Jiangnan City TV station will record the whole broadcast, and I have already discussed this project with the director, who is very supportive, but..." In the middle of speaking, Bai Xiaolan suddenly hesitated again. "But what?" Gu Chen and Xiao Rui said in unison. "But...but the director said that this project can be entrusted to me, but I need to handle the later sponsorship by myself." "Because there is no commercial value without sponsorship, this project will not make money, so I have been in contact with the entertainment business group of Yuan Group recently, hoping to get commercial sponsorship from Yuan Group." "As for the venues of these competitions, we have roughly finalized some details. Even during this period, some members of domestic FPV racing clubs will come here for inspection and training." Taking a deep breath, Bai Xiaolan said, "So, now you all know how stressed I am?" "In fact, it is really not easy to be a good producer, and the risk of losing money in the project is really great." "If there is no support from the sponsors behind them, there is almost no need for these projects to start." With a faint sigh, Bai Xiaolan was also quite helpless: "But fortunately, I have the popular column "Positive Energy in Action" in my hand, which has certain commercial value." "Furthermore, the Yuan Group's entertainment business group has always sponsored our column, so I talked to them about this project this time, and they are willing to try it, but we are still discussing the sponsorship fee in detail. What will happen in the end? Not finalized." Looking at Gu Chen, Bai Xiaolan couldn't help but smile wryly: "Gu Chen, what do you think I should do? I feel like I'm going all out this time. A young host like me dares to take on a project that many old producers dare not do. . "Furthermore, projects such as the FPV traversing machine racing competition are still in the early stages in China, and the audience is not very large, so the risks to be faced are also great, and the commercial realization ability belongs to the exploratory stage." Sitting on a boulder, Bai Xiaolan rested her hands on her chin, and said with emotion: "Gu Chen, you said this, should I do it or not?" Hearing Bai Xiaolan's words, Gu Chen didn't answer immediately, but after a few seconds of contemplation, he gave a suggestion: "Xiaolan, I can't answer your question, because I don't know much about this project, and I haven't investigated it, but I can share with you a technique that you can definitely use." "Huh?" Hearing what Gu Chen said, Bai Xiaolan became interested immediately, and hurriedly approached Gu Chen, asking for advice, "Tell me." "That's right, Gu Chen, tell me." Xiao Rui who was on the side was also quite interested. Gu Chen crossed his arms and said thoughtfully: "When you really want to do something, but your heart or someone tells you that you can't do it, you can ask yourself, if you can do it, you can't do it." Will it die?" "Uh..." Hearing Gu Chen's words, Bai Xiaolan was stunned, and asked again: "So...so?" "If you're going to die, forget it, if you're not going to die, just let me do it right away." Gu Chen said. Bai Xiaolan nodded slightly: "I thought so too at the time, but I didn't feel courageous." "But sometimes I think about it, if I don't do it, I might live like a fool in the future." "Hehe." Gu Chen laughed dryly when he heard the words, shook his head, and said, "Xiao Lan, let me tell you a secret at the end, do you know what you will die if you do it?" "Uh" Bai Xiaolan's eyes widened, and she began to hesitate. But Gu Chen blurted out: "That's right, you will die in the end if you do anything, and the only one who can stop you is yourself." "I understand." Hearing what Gu Chen said, Bai Xiaolan suddenly became enlightened, and said with a long sigh of relief: "Listening to you, Gu Chen, is just comfortable." "After the filming task here is completed, I will contact the Yuan Group when I go back. I must get the sponsorship. For this project, I am bound to win it. I have to let the entertainment business group of the Yuan Group see my determination. " Bai Xiaolan suddenly seemed to be a different person. After all, this is my first battle as a producer. If the event fails, my confidence in becoming a producer in the future will be greatly affected. On this side, Bai Xiaolan was still holding on to a desperate mentality, brewing her emotions, but on the other side, she heard the photographer Wu Jun not far away yelling "Damn!" ...
