Chapter 227: Late Night Interview
In the evening, after everyone returned to the inn, they started a meeting.
The filming of a program requires a meeting in advance to determine the theme and the main line of filming.
For example, what is the main focus.
The Jiangzhi episode is definitely based on the traditional activity of treading lanterns.
But besides this traditional activity, there must be other content, otherwise it would be a pure documentary, and it would be meaningless for a star like Lu Yan He to participate.
Xin Zixing said, "Actually, I think He Yunlan and Liu Yiyi are very suitable for appearing on camera. They are both top students from prestigious universities and are also Jiangzhi locals, with good images. When we had dinner today, their stories touched me quite a bit because they are real stories of ordinary people, and they are a young couple, and the story of their love is very meaningful for discussion."
Lu Yan He asked, "Sister Zixing, they are both ordinary people. If we put their stories into the program, will it affect and disturb their lives?"
Xin Zixing said, "Regarding this point, I plan to ask for their opinions tomorrow. If they are willing, we will put it in. If they are not willing, we will weaken this part. However, there are pros and cons. The traditional activity of treading lanterns is actually related to the love of young people. Showing the love story of a young couple in such a theme, I think it fits the theme very well, and it can also move young people more, making them have more thoughts and interest in coming to Jiangzhi for a visit. They invited us over, actually, just to achieve this goal, so they might not be unwilling."
From Lu Yan He's perspective, appearing on a program will have a lot of influence and disturbance on the lives of ordinary people, and these influences and disturbances are not good things. He himself is an artist, and he has accepted that his life is destined to lose a lot of privacy and personal space, but in fact, most people are willing to share their lives with everyone.
Although many people are not stars, they all have a desire to share with others and gain recognition from others.
Lu Yan He nodded, realizing that his previous thought was actually a bit arrogant—whether to share this matter with everyone on the program is not up to him, but depends on the opinions of He Yunlan and Liu Yiyi.
He said, "If they are willing, I also believe their story will gain everyone's love and support."
Xin Zixing nodded and said, "If they are willing, I want to invite them to participate in our program recording, what do you think? We are outsiders, they are locals, recording this film together can also make us understand the traditional activity of treading lanterns better and understand the city of Jiangzhi more deeply."
Lu Yan He nodded and said, "Yeah, I think so too."
While they were discussing in the meeting, there was also a camera filming on the side.
The content of their meeting was also filmed.
After filming, Xin Zixing said, "Yan He, in an hour, I will do a simple interview with you, maybe it will be put into the program."
"Okay," Lu Yan He nodded, "Then where will the interview be done later? If I don't need to go out, I'll take a shower first."
"Just in this inn," Xin Zixing said, "This small courtyard is very beautiful."
"Okay."
After the meeting, Lu Yan He went back to his room to take a shower.
Chen Siqi had previously sent him several articles, all of which were manuscripts she had commissioned.
The authors of these manuscripts were not great writers or celebrities, but creators Chen Siqi found on various websites and forums online, asking them to create articles with the theme of student days.
Lu Yan He sat by the window reading the manuscripts.
The summer night in Jiangzhi doesn't need air conditioning, and the temperature is very comfortable.
The light in the room is a bit dim.
He moved the floor lamp by the bedside over and sat by the window reading on his laptop.
They are all essays.
These articles almost all focus on the campus, recalling the content of past youth time.
Among them, there is no lack of sincere and moving writing.
However, Lu Yan He read them in one breath, but felt some aesthetic fatigue, because everyone's writing was too similar.
The authors Chen Siqi found were actually very talented. If you look at one of them alone, Lu Yan He would feel it was very good, but when these articles were put together, Lu Yan He felt it wouldn't work.
Just as he was thinking about how to tell Chen Siqi, Chen Siqi suddenly sent another message: The themes and styles of these five articles are relatively close. We can pick one or two from them. Which one do you think is the best?
It turned out that Chen Siqi also felt that the themes and styles of these articles were relatively close. Lu Yan He told Chen Siqi the one he liked the most.
Chen Siqi: OK, our opinions are consistent, so let's use this one.
Lu Yan He asked: How is the book doing now?
Chen Siqi said: The first draft has been made, I have some adjustment opinions, Yilong is making adjustments, how about you? Have you arrived in Jiangzhi? I saw the photos you posted, it seems to be an old city there?
Lu Yan He: Yes, many old buildings, I quite like the feeling here.
Chen Siqi: I see many people in the comment section asking where it is.
Lu Yan He: Should someone have recognized it already? Today we went to eat, many locals saw us, but they might not recognize me.
Chen Siqi: I see some people in the comment section already know you are in Jiangzhi, several people mentioned it.
Lu Yan He: Really? So fast.
Chen Siqi: Everyone's internet speed is very fast now.
Lu Yan He logged into his social media and looked at the comment section. Several hours had passed, and there were thousands of comments under that post.
His social media did not have any data operations, and all data was real.
Clicking on the comment section, Lu Yan He saw that there were indeed several high-praise replies, all about his reply in Jiangzhi, and there was also a photo of him, which was a picture of him walking into the inn taken by someone else.
He in the photo was very clear, and one could recognize it was him at a glance.
A high-praise comment in the comment section was: Lu Yan He looks even more handsome in person than on the internet! His legs are huge long!
The tone was very exaggerated.
Lu Yan He grinned.
After a while, Xin Zixing came to knock on the door.
"Yan He, the place for the interview is set up, are you OK now?"
"I'm ready," Lu Yan He got up to open the door, "Let's go down."
The interview was set up in a corner of the inn's courtyard.
Xin Zixing magically pulled a wire over, set up a floor lamp in this corner, and put a chair.
Lu Yan He sat on it according to the instructions.
A camera was filming him.
Chen Liang and the others were managing the machine on the side.
Xin Zixing sat behind the camera.
She didn't plan to appear on camera during the interview.
"Is it just me in the lens?" Lu Yan He asked suspiciously.
Last time when filming the Langhua episode, Xin Zixing appeared on camera with Lu Yan He the whole time.
Xin Zixing explained: "Because we are in the lens usually, this is your interview, we want to highlight your own attitude and thoughts to the audience, so I won't appear on camera, including the questions themselves, we will look at the editing situation to see if we want to put the questions in, it is even possible that this interview is just as an annotation to the content of the main film, occasionally appearing in the program to do a supplement."
Program recording is straight and direct. Many actions, eyes, and even expressions, if not interpreted, are easily interpreted by everyone in multiple meanings. This is understandable, but in some key positions, Xin Zixing and the others still hope to give accurate expressions.
Lu Yan He nodded.
Xin Zixing's first question was: "After you got off the plane today, you fell asleep as soon as you got in the car, were you tired yesterday?"
"Yes, I didn't sleep well yesterday, I was checking the information about the city of Jiangzhi before coming," Lu Yan He looked at Xin Zixing seriously and nodded, "After all, this is a program about the city, doing more homework before coming here can give me more understanding."
Xin Zixing asked: "Do you do this kind of homework before traveling to any city?"
"Not necessarily, I will make a strategy, but I won't necessarily do homework," Lu Yan He said with a smile, "This is because it is work, so I did my homework seriously, I don't want to appear too ignorant about some common sense things, usually traveling is relatively relaxed, whatever is fun, just do it."
Xin Zixing nodded and started to ask about the dinner table tonight.
"We noticed that when He Yunlan and Liu Yiyi were telling their college love story, you listened very carefully, and even felt a bit envious, can you share with us what you were thinking at that time?"
Lu Yan He said: "I was indeed a bit envious, but at that time I was mainly moved by the story they told, the feeling of love between them made me feel particularly happy."
Xin Zixing nodded: "Tomorrow Jiangzhi will hold the annual traditional activity of treading lanterns. This activity is about young people confessing their feelings. If you like someone, are you the type to take the initiative to confess, or the type to wait for others to confess?"
Lu Yan He looked at Xin Zixing in surprise.
"Are there such questions?"
Xin Zixing said: "If you feel it's inappropriate, it doesn't matter if you don't answer."
Lu Yan He thought for a while, "It's okay, there's nothing inappropriate, it's just a bit surprised, I didn't expect to be asked such questions, let me think, I think I don't look like either, taking the initiative to confess depends on the right time, place, and people, waiting for others to confess is even less so, everyone's way of dealing with such things is different, I might convey such signals in some details at ordinary times, see if the other party has feedback, in fact, liking someone, many times there will be signals, confessing, it is easier when it is love at first sight or the relationship is not so familiar, if it is between people who are already very familiar, I guess it will be more difficult to speak."
Xin Zixing was silent for a moment and said: "Yan He, you say these words, it is easy for people to notice that you already have someone you like."
"Ah?" Lu Yan He was stunned.
Xin Zixing said: "Because your answer is very clear, it sounds like there is a very specific object you like."
Lu Yan He: "..."
He looked at the lens at a loss.
Xin Zixing said: "Why don't you say it again?"
Lu Yan He: "... What should I say again?"
Xin Zixing said with a smile: "Put aside those right time, place, and people, just analyze from the basic situation, do you think you are more inclined to be a person who takes the initiative to confess, or more inclined to be a person who is confessed to by others."
"Take the initiative to confess," Lu Yan He didn't hesitate this time, "If I think the timing and everything are very suitable, I will say it."
Xin Zixing covered the smile at the corner of her mouth.
This interview lasted about half an hour before it ended.
As soon as the camera was turned off, the expressions of Xin Zixing and the others looking at Lu Yan He became ambiguous.
Mainly because of Xin Zixing's conclusion just now, "You already have someone you like."
Xin Zixing knew who the girl Lu Yan He liked was, but the others didn't know.
And what surprised the others most was that, faced with Xin Zixing's conclusive tone, Lu Yan He didn't deny it.
Lu Yan He said embarrassedly: "Then I'll go back to sleep first."
"Okay," Xin Zixing said, "We have to leave at eight tomorrow morning, Xiao Mei found a rice noodle shop, we will go there to film the breakfast part tomorrow morning."
"Okay," Lu Yan He nodded.
He hurried back to the room.
Under the eyes of those people just now, Lu Yan He was so embarrassed that he didn't know what to say, wanting to dig a hole and bury himself.
Back in the room, picking up the phone that was charging, he saw the message from Peng Zhixing: Yan He, the episode you recorded will be broadcast at noon this Friday, our program has already released a trailer, please take the time to forward and promote it.
Lu Yan He hurriedly replied: Okay.
"Zhixing" is finally going to be broadcast.
This sleep was very comfortable.
Lu Yan He didn't have the habit of being picky about beds, he slept quite well wherever he went, as long as the environment was okay, he could sleep very soundly.
He woke up early in the morning and went downstairs for a morning run.
The sun was just right.
During this time, he had been insisting on exercising for "Phoenix Terrace" to make his body more muscular.
When he came back from his morning run, he happened to run into Chen Liang taking Xu Chao to film some empty lens material.
"Brother Liang, you guys started filming so early?" Lu Yan He's cheeks were red and he was covered in sweat.
Chen Liang immediately pointed the camera lens at Lu Yan He.
"Yeah, come to film some material, did you just finish running?"
"Yeah," Lu Yan He nodded, "I'll go up and rinse off first."
"Okay," Chen Liang nodded.
He kept filming Lu Yan He until he went upstairs before ending.
Xu Chao was still a bit confused and asked: "Brother Liang, why did you film the lens just now?"
Chen Liang said: "When filming this kind of film, the more material, the better, material is never too much, when you edit, you don't know what kind of content you will want, if there is no suitable material, you can only use subtitles and other means to connect the content, and Lu Yan He is the only guest of our program, there is no harm in having more lenses about him." ===== CHAPTER 228 =====
