Chapter 94

"Village Chief, 'Back to Field' is starting filming today."

"Please give us more advice in the coming days."

Huang Lei and the four came to the village committee office.

Before filming, it was necessary to say hello.

"Good that you're here."

"By the way, do you know the crew that came before?"

The village chief smiled from ear to ear.

Two crews came to their village to film programs on the same day.

It would definitely be of great benefit to the development of their village!

"There's another crew?"

Zhang Zifeng asked curiously.

"Yeah."

"They came last night, it seems they are also starting filming today."

The village chief nodded.

"There's such a thing?"

Huang Lei immediately became interested and went to ask the director.

The director said he didn't know either.

"What kind of program are they filming here?"

He Jiong thought for a long time but couldn't figure it out.

Currently, reality shows, apart from them choosing to film in the countryside, there aren't any others.

"Heard it's filming some local food, they've already found several villagers who can cook."

The village chief recalled.

"Food program?"

Hearing this, Huang Lei’s eyes lit up.

"Why don't we go over and take a look, maybe we'll meet some acquaintances."

Peng Peng immediately understood his thoughts and laughed.

"I have the same intention."

"Anyway, there are still three hours until filming, there's enough time."

"Let's go, let's meet our peers."

Manyuan Village is not a famous village, to be able to choose the same place to film.

That is fate!

At this time.

Qin Mu and his group were walking in the woods, following a local villager.

"Usually have to walk three kilometers to find a matsutake."

The villager said while climbing the slope.

Behind him, the program team was panting.

They had been walking for nearly half an hour from the village to here.

Moreover, most of the roads were mountain roads, the kind where you climb slopes.

Consuming a lot of physical energy.

Now, one could see the difference between Qin Mu and other cinematographers.

Those colleagues were carrying cameras, panting heavily, their steps swaying.

Not to mention stable filming, even if they had to film something temporarily now, the lens would be shaking uncontrollably.

But look at Qin Mu.

Calm and composed, extremely leisurely.

Along the way, the camera on his shoulder hadn't been turned off, recording the hardship of this journey with extreme stability.

"Fortunately there's Brother Qin, this part can actually be recorded!"

Director Chen gasped for air.

"Yeah, a very critical shot!"

"If it weren't for Brother Qin, I'm afraid we really couldn't finish it."

Zhang Yimou was also sweating like rain.

Actually, in their first version of the script, there was an arrangement to film this journey.

After all, portraying it this way would not only let the audience feel the hardship of the villagers, but also let them know that food is hard-won.

But after learning that the road was long and rugged, they gave up this idea.

Just walking would be exhausting, if they had to force it to be filmed, I'm afraid the lens effect would be terrible.

Cinematographers are also human, can't make it too difficult for them!

However, Qin Mu brought them a miracle!

Not only could he film, but he filmed very smoothly, the lens didn't shake at all, and the image quality was very clear!

"Brother Qin, how are you so strong!"

Looking at the picture on the monitor, Director Chen couldn't help but give a thumbs up.

"Exercise a lot."

Qin Mu smiled, stepped forward, and patted his colleague who was exhausted beside him: "You guys go rest for a while, I'll do the follow-up filming."

"Thank you, Brother Qin!"

"Then I'll leave it to you!"

Several people were overjoyed and thanked him quickly.

In their current state, they really couldn't film!

Qin Mu nodded and followed the villager.

Finally, after walking for a while longer, they arrived at a mound.

A matsutake mushroom was protruding there.

"The cap has already opened, but I estimate the quality isn't very good."

The villager turned the matsutake over.

Qin Mu focused the lens on the movements of his hands, very meticulously.

Actually, "A Bite of China" is not just a food program, but also lets the public understand the human life in various parts of China.

Therefore, this part of hard work cannot be missing.

"I'll look for others."

The quality of this matsutake was very average, the size and color weren't very good.

However, the villager still put it in the basket.

"Now the production of matsutake has decreased, there used to be a lot here, and the quality of each one was quite good."

He explained.

"In restaurants in big cities, the price of a charcoal-grilled matsutake can reach 1600 yuan."

"How much do you sell it for?"

Qin Mu asked.

This was a dialogue arranged in the script.

"Two or three hundred."

The villager smiled bitterly.

"Go this way, my parents buried some seeds here before, don't know if they've grown now."

The two came to a mound again.

Opened it and saw it had already grown.

"Good luck."

He dug the matsutake excitedly, and Qin Mu asked again: "I heard that in your village, around three in the morning, villagers come out to dig matsutake, is it true?"

"Yeah."

"Those who can climb the mountain will come out."

"If I don't come out early, others will be in front of me, and I won't find anything."

Qin Mu nodded silently.

Next, the villager took him all over the big hillside.

It took more than two hours, and in the end, they only found a mere four or five plants.

And only one of them met the quality requirements.

During this time, Qin Mu also filmed a lot of material, after processing it when he goes back, it will definitely be able to present the true situation of a matsutake digger!

"Is it here?"

Under the guidance of the village chief, Huang Lei and the others arrived outside the woods.

"Walking all the way here, I really have a lot of feelings!"

He Jiong sighed repeatedly.

"Are we going in?"

Peng Peng asked.

"Forget it, what if we get lost after going in."

"Could it be that the first episode will film 'Program Team Saves Guests'?"

Huang Lei said angrily.

"Then let's wait here."

Zhang Zifeng nodded in agreement.

"By the way, they are filming a food program, why did they run here?"

He Jiong asked curiously.

Having a picnic in the woods?

Shouldn't be.

"I guess, it should be filming the collection process of ingredients, and when it's mealtime, it will be food production."

In terms of food, Huang Lei still has a lot of say, after all, he has filmed similar programs before.

"Doesn't that mean we can take the opportunity to have a meal?"

The three people beside him all had their eyes lit up!
