The Magnate's Daughter Becomes Hugely Popular on a Farming Reality Show

As the young lady of a top luxury family, Jiang Hexi was sent to a farming reality show to experience life after losing a billion in investments. Accompanying her in farming were four super-rich se...

Chapter 65

[Screenshots are online, ladies, hurry! Xie Wanyi truly deserves her Best Actor title; her incredible movement perfectly avoided the camera lens, not even revealing her face!]

My son is a natural-born actor; there's no way he'll end up in the news.

What kind of mentality do they have? They've already embarrassed themselves on the entire internet, and they still care if they're caught on camera in the news.

[Does this group of five chaebols have to be so sarcastic to Director Chen? They're not even as enthusiastic about watching farming variety shows as they are about watching the evening news.]

Shen Yingyu became interested and borrowed a staff member's laptop to replay the news story.

The camera gave the group three long shots in total.

The first time was when they were standing in a row by the roadside. Xie Wanyi happened to be standing next to Yan Jie and Shen Yingyu, using their height advantage to cover her face.

The second time was when the traffic police were giving a speech, he was standing in a blind spot of the camera, and the camera only captured half of his clothes;

The third time was the moment he walked out of the propaganda classroom. He stood directly outside the frame of the shot, and the entire long shot only captured his pair of shoes.

Yan Jie had to admit defeat: "You can actually move like that? You've made the whole camera go around in circles."

Xie Wanyi said without exaggeration, "After so many years of filming, no matter what angle the camera is from, I can present the effect that the director wants."

Jiang Hexi nudged the person next to her again, but this time she actually nudged Yu Xiangwan:

"Actor Xie is so handsome."

The voice was extremely soft and low, but Yan Jie, sitting opposite him, still heard it. Unlike the teasing and joking last time, this time he felt a little jealous.

Director Chen returned from outside with a cold face. As soon as he entered, he launched into a tirade against the guests present:

"Recently, the program team has received a lot of complaints, all of which are severe criticisms from netizens regarding everyone's farming behavior. I will briefly mention a few of them here."

"Before I get to the first point, I'd like to ask you all, in the two months you've been in the countryside, have you ever counted how many chickens you've eaten in total?"

Chu Yang was too lazy to think about the question and asked Director Chen directly, "How many?"

Director Chen glared at him, "Some netizens have counted online that you've eaten no fewer than thirty-eight free-range chickens in the past two months!"

Upon hearing this, Yan Jie turned to Shen Yingyu and asked, "Are there that many?"

Shen Yingyu roughly estimated in his mind, "The aunt went to the free-range chicken farm to catch chickens the next day, about this many."

Director Chen couldn't stop cursing:

"Go ask around under the camphor tree at the village entrance. Among the big chicken farm owners in the village, which family eats chicken like you do?"

"At this rate at which you're eating chickens, you'll bankrupt half a free-range chicken farm in less than a year. Once you've eaten all the chickens, what will you be left to sell free-range eggs for?"

Surprisingly, the five chaebol members didn't stand up and talk back; they all silently endured the scolding.

Director Chen then proceeded to address the second complaint:

"Many netizens are dissatisfied with your behavior of only accepting peaches and not removing weeds. The production team is reminding all guests for the second time to remove weeds on time. If you insist on letting the weeds grow wildly, the production team will impose the maximum penalty on you."

Jiang Hexi disliked that Director Chen always talked about punishment and threatened them at the drop of a hat.

"Director Chen, is it any of our business how many chickens we eat?"

She said indignantly, "That's our free-range chicken farm. We can eat as many chickens as we want."

Director Chen asked her only one question, "Are you determined not to change?"

"We will change it, but we must change it in our own way."

Yan Jie spoke up to help Jiang Hexi out of the predicament, saying, "Moreover, it's a one-time rectification, solving both the chicken-eating and weeding issues at the same time."

Director Chen: "Tell me your rectification plan."

Yan Jie stated frankly, "The three of us happened to discuss this issue while having tea at noon, and then we unanimously decided to raise chickens in mobile chicken coops under the orchard to peck at grass."

Shen Yingyu picked up where he left off and explained further:

"After reading 'The Fortune Book', we learned about the density of chickens in orchards. We also consulted professional books and repeatedly verified the feasibility of this method. We plan to raise 100 chickens in our three-acre orchard."

"Firstly, we can make full use of the chickens' grass-eating habits to clear away the weeds between the rows. Secondly, these breeding chickens will start laying eggs soon, and after being moved to the hilltop, we can expand the hen population of the entire free-range chicken farm."

"Director Chen, do you think this plan is feasible?"

Director Chen didn't intend to make things difficult for them. Since they came up with a solution, he didn't need to be aggressive.

Whether it works or not is not up to me to decide; we'll only know after we put it into practice.

I almost burst out laughing. They ate 38 chickens in two months! How can they eat so much?

That netizen is quite something. He doesn't watch anything in the live stream, he just stares at how many chickens the streamer eats, counting on his fingers endlessly: one chicken, two chickens, three chickens...

[This method of raising chickens in the orchard is excellent. It solves the two major problems of weeding and chicken feed in one fell swoop. It's truly a decision made by the leadership; meticulous, rigorous, and after extensive consultation. It's definitely superior to the business team's approach.]

As a long-time fan of the show, I'm surprised I only just found out I could complain to the production team about this. If I had known Director Chen would take the opinions of the majority of netizens into account, I would definitely have complained about Yan Wang: Why does he always bully my Xi Mei endlessly?

At eight o'clock in the morning, everyone gathered in the living room to eat breakfast.

Jiang Hexi saw a plate of delicate pastries on the long table and asked with delight:

"Are these the snacks that the aunt bought? They look delicious."
