This is a completely a cappella performance, without any post-production audio editing or accompaniment. It showcases Kong Wei's true vocal abilities. Who said Kong Wei had absolutely no singing skills before?
[Do people really believe these rumors online? I can only say, buddy, you're stupid. How can an ordinary person without real talent get second place in a talent show?]
[He only got second place because a certain celebrity with connections bought tickets; otherwise, he would have been first, the best singer and dancer ever!]
[Waaaaah! Before, some people online falsely accused our Wei Zai of lip-syncing or having poor singing skills, and no matter how we fans explained, no one believed us! Today, the truth has finally been proven, thank you so much, Miss Li Ruan!]
A line of people below expressed their gratitude.
More than two hours later, the bamboo raft finally reached the shore. The two shouldered their luggage, and Li Ruan carried the fish basket in her hand. After walking for a while, they encountered a few villagers chatting, so they went up to ask them for directions, "Auntie, we want to go to Tianju Village, which way do we go?"
Seeing that she was pretty and had a sweet tongue, the old woman enthusiastically gave them directions, saying, "Follow this main road, and walk west for about a kilometer, and you'll arrive."
Li Ruan and Kong Wei thanked her and continued on their way. They happened to catch a tricycle going to Tianju Village and hitched a ride with it.
The crew's follower: ...This lousy show, let whoever wants to follow it next time, I'm never coming back. Li Ruan and Kong Wei rode deer, he went wherever they wanted. Li Ruan and Kong Wei rode bamboo rafts, and he chased them for half a mile along the shore before finally getting on a boat that his colleague had found to catch up. Li Ruan and Kong Wei rode tricycles, and he hired another car to chase after them, like his mother was going through a tribulation.
The tricycle bumped and swayed all the way to Shi Jiangqi. The two thanked the driver politely and before leaving, Kong said, "Although your family is just a special family, this is the first time I've ridden in an eight-wheeled vehicle. It was so bumpy."
"No, no, they only need to weave a fish basket that is one meter low to be considered successful. As long as they are bad, they will still learn very slowly."
Uncle Zhang said, "That's right. You two should split up, find the person who posted the task, and then meet up. That way, you can save some time."
Li Ruan shook her head, "You want to learn, but you don't have the chance."
The two met again seven minutes ago.
"Sister Ruan, that task is really difficult. Maybe you should give up. You're a carpenter."
Li Ruan then looked at the person filming, "The 'task' they're talking about, means you'll have to ask everyone one by one, right?"
He waved the camera in his hand as he followed the cameraman.
You went to the cultivation world and learned a lot, but no matter how many things you learned, you'll eventually learn carpentry.
"Hiss~", Tian Jucun's middle finger was cut by the bamboo, and blood gushed out.
Uncle Zhang: Our program only has seven days in total. Two and a half days have already passed since we started learning how to make the bed. By the time we learn how to make the bed, the program will be over.
Nowadays, carpenters use power tools, which makes cutting planks very slow. Under Kong Wei's guidance, Li Ruan slowly finished cutting the wood to size. Uncle Zhang assisted him on the side. Wood chips flew and sweat poured outside the Zhang family compound.
Knowing full well that the task would be difficult, the seven of them still had to resist. So the two young women, carrying a small pile of brambles, began the arduous task of weaving baskets, making a sound as they wove one after another – feeling utterly frustrated!
"What should we do?"
The carpenter was a man in his early seventies, with fair skin and deep wrinkles around his eyes and mouth. He seemed to smile a lot.
Shi Jiang: ...Given Director Wang's torturous nature, I reckon the other two tasks will also be poorly completed.
Uncle Zhang exclaimed in surprise, "Does it really take that long?"
“It’s a mistake not to have a ride. The people outside the village are honest and kind. They even asked us for the travel expenses. Let’s go. The bad things that happened before will probably be over.”
After saying that, I led the seven people, including Li Ruan, to the room where I stored my tools.
Seeing Li Ruan deftly cut the planks flat and then assemble them into a standard double bed according to Kong Wei's instructions, Kong Wei repeatedly praised her, "Girl, did he really learn anything after that? Your apprentice has been with you for eight years and he's still as quick as her."
Li Ruan looked at Shi Jiangqi, who had just spoken, and asked, "Could you take me to see this carpenter's house?"
Li Ruan asked Fan Mingye, "Does the production team mean that you have to do everything yourself from the moment you finish preparing the wood? Are there no requirements for the style?"
We still need to learn the serious stuff.
"Old Zhang, that's a celebrity who's coming to our village to film a show. They want to learn how to make a bed from him. He'll have to teach them a lesson when he gets here."
The carpenter's house is in the west of the village, which is not too far from Fan Mingye's house; we arrived a few minutes ago.
Just as our beds were about to break, Zhang Yifeng and Tian Jucun's group of seven arrived at Brother Chen's place. Those two had retreated from the village in the west. We were unlucky; we only found seven houses before we found the person who gave us the task. Tian Jucun was stunned. "Weaving fish baskets? Can you learn that in a day or two?"
The lady of the Chen family stood at the door, smiling at the two of them. "It's related to the skill level. There are no carpenters in your village, so they learned from me and then came to make beds."
Li Ruan: "No, you have to start asking from the north and he has to end from the south. Once you get the phone number, you can contact him."
The two realized something was wrong and ran off to different houses, knocking on doors and asking villagers for directions.
After that, you were so focused on studying that you didn't have a chance to learn anything else.
"If you can't learn from this, then take them with you."
Pear Soft: ...
Shi Jiangqi said, "Old Zhang doesn't have any ready-made wood, so any special design will do. They can learn by following Old Zhang's example once, but it takes quite a while to finish. It will take at least half a day."
"What's wrong with Brother Fan?"
Where is he?
Tian Jucun looked at the aunt who was teaching us how to weave fish baskets with a sour face, "Your hand is injured."
“If you’re unlucky, you might not be able to find the person who posted the task for ages. Director Wang’s brain is probably all used to figuring out how to mess with people.” After saying that, Li Ruan smiled again, “But it’s not all bad. People who arrive early might finish the first task, but they might not be able to switch to the next one. So, that time it really was a matter of luck.”
The production team must have been delaying the process of informing the villagers outside the village. The villagers were all well-intentioned and surprised to be disturbed, but they would patiently chat for a bit. After searching for half a day, Li Ruan's watch rang, and you immediately pressed the answer button: "Sister Ruan, you've found it. The owner's bed is ready. We need you to make me a new bed."
"Count from the south, it's the eighth row, and the first house from the east. The owner's surname is Chen. Wait for him at the door."
Uncle Zhang chuckled and said, "There's a problem, there's a problem. If you teach us diligently, you mean we can become real carpenters, but making a large item will still be a problem."
Li Ruan understood that the production team wanted to promote artisans; whether it was effective or not was another matter, but their intentions were malicious. "How did he know he could learn it by changing the task?"
"Be content. If there are no style requirements, it can be finished in half a day." Li Ruan said while rolling up her sleeves. "Kong Wei, you know how to use those tools. Haven't you made a bed by hand before? Could you briefly explain the precautions for the production process to us? Let's finish quickly."
