After getting off the plane, Lu Chuanbei and others were picked up by Zhang Bosong, who arrived at the airport earlier, and put on the bus parked at the door, heading towards Changbai Mountain.
As soon as we got in the car, Zhang Bosong started to give everyone a detailed introduction to several major scenic spots in Changbai Mountain, including the Changbai Mountain Tianchi, known as a paradise on earth, the magnificent Changbai Mountain Waterfall, the Jinjiang Grand Canyon with its strange rock formations, and Baiyun Peak, the highest peak in Northeast China, where you can climb up to enjoy the whole view of Changbai Mountain.
Hearing this, Song Tiantian and the other little ones couldn't help but look forward to it.
"So are we going to travel here this time?" Xu Anjia couldn't wait.
"I know Tianchi. I heard there is a giant water monster in Tianchi. Will we be able to see it when we go to Tianshan later?" He Jingnian's eyes lit up when he mentioned the water monster.
Song Tiantian was even more concerned about the traditional Chinese medicine in Changbai Mountain: "I heard from my grandfather that there are many precious medicinal herbs in Changbai Mountain. Can we go there to collect them?"
Hearing this, the audience in the live broadcast room laughed.
[Good, this is sweet!]
[Haha, she's really sweet, the questions she asked really fit her personality!]
[23333, I'm starting to worry about those precious Chinese herbal medicines in Changbai Mountain.]
I'm also looking forward to seeing Tiantian picking herbs in Changbai Mountain. That scene is sure to be exciting.
I'm actually quite curious about the water monster in Tianchi that Niannian mentioned, but I wonder if Tiantian and the others can spot it this time.
[Yes, I've always heard rumors of a water monster in Tianchi Lake, but no one seems to have seen one in person. I wonder if this will open our eyes.]
It's hard to say. After all, the Tianchi Lake monster has been a legend for hundreds of years, and whether it actually exists is still unknown. So I don't think even Tiantian and the others would be able to see it.
[I don't know if it's the water or not, but the traditional Chinese medicine Tiantian from Changbai Mountain must have been picked!]
[That's right. I'm also curious. I wonder if Tiantian and the others will find any treasures during their trip to Changbai Mountain.]
I'll make a blind guess: ginseng. I often hear about ginseng pickers finding ginseng on Changbai Mountain. Maybe this time I'll be able to find some.
I think it's Ganoderma lucidum.
[Water monster, I think Tiantian and the others will definitely see the Tianchi water monster this time!]
For a time, online viewers began to speculate about what treasures Song Tiantian and her friends could find on their trip to Changbai Mountain.
But at this moment, Zhang Bosong chuckled a few times: "It depends on where you want to go."
"What do you mean by that?"
"What do you mean we can go wherever we want? Aren't you going to arrange an itinerary for us this time, but let us decide where to go?" He Xuebin said in disbelief.
"Of course, this trip is called a self-guided tour, which means you can arrange wherever you want to go."
Zhang Bosong's sudden generosity not only failed to surprise Lu Chuanbei and the others, but also made them a little scared: "No way? You really want us to arrange it ourselves?"
"When did the production team become so generous?"
"Tell me, what is your purpose? Or are you planning to leave us alone for this trip without paying?"
"It's possible, otherwise the production team wouldn't be so generous. There must be a trap here."
Zhang Bosong looked at the group of people who didn't believe in him and couldn't help but roll his eyes and said, "Can't you think of something better?"
"Then you have to do something good, right?" He Xuebin complained directly.
Xu Qi even said directly, "You and Director Liu are the ones who always set traps for us to fall into, and you still want us to think of something better?"
Lu Chuanbei: "Just tell me directly, are you planning to torment us like this again this time?"
"Really not." Zhang Bosong heard from Director Liu that the higher-ups had called the TV station for tea and a chat. In this situation, who among them would dare to cause any trouble?
"Then why are you suddenly so kind this time?" Fang Xiuzhu asked suspiciously.
Director Liu glanced at Lu Chuanbei and Song Tiantian's livestream room, then glanced at the staff behind him. "So you've got a genius hiding here, haven't you? If we accidentally break something, the national boss will give us a pair of silver bracelets and a private room."
Even so, Director Liu was not dissatisfied with the security personnel arranged by the national boss. Instead, he was quite happy and relieved.
After all, ever since Song Tiantian produced so many miraculous pills in the live broadcast room, and the chief specially sent troops to protect them, Director Liu knew that sooner or later, Lu Chuanbei and the others would be chosen by the country's overlord and reach the pinnacle of their lives.
Now he has the advantage of having signed a contract with Lu Chuanbei and others, and can also let them finish recording the last few episodes. This is already a stroke of luck for him.
After all, according to the current situation, even if Lu Chuanbei and the others stopped recording, no one would dare to say anything. But Lu Chuanbei and Song Tiantian still arrived on time, which was enough for Director Liu to brag about for the rest of his life.
You know, he signed Song Tiantian and Lu Chuanbei together at a package price of 200,000 yuan. Now, if their colleagues don't talk about this, they all think he has made a fortune.
Director Liu could still laugh out loud when he thought of this. Even if these last few episodes would be a little duller than the previous ones, Director Liu was willing to do so.
After all, given the current importance of Song Tiantian and the others, Director Liu would regret it greatly if any accidents really happened during the recording of the variety show.
So even though most of the staff in this episode were replaced by soldiers sent from the army, Director Liu was still very happy.
Director Liu looked at He Xuebin and the others in the live studio, who were still in disbelief, and couldn't help but snorted with a smile: "These few episodes are a bargain for you."
However, at this time, Director Liu still didn't know what kind of thrilling accidents would happen during the recording of this ordinary journey, which he called a self-guided tour.
Zhang Bosong, on the bus, was still repeating the words they had agreed upon earlier: "That's because you still have two more chances to ask for tickets from the program team."
"Besides, we're already in the final few episodes. If we don't comply with your request, you could just use the request coupons, and the result would be the same."
"That's why our program team has customized this independent trip to Changbai Mountain for you. You can decide which places to visit on this trip. Of course, we won't cover any expenses this time."
"However, you have demand coupons, and you can use them to demand us."
"I see." He Xuebin actually believed Zhang Bosong's explanation. "You think these are the last few sessions, and you know we'll definitely use up our coupons, so you customized a self-guided tour for us."
"I was wondering why you were so generous this time." Xu Qi had no doubts.
[The program team is quite smart]
I told you the production team wasn't that kind. Sure enough, they were worried that Song Tiantian and the others would use the coupons in the last few episodes, so they organized this self-guided tour.
This is a great idea! Tiantian and the others can use the request coupons to arrange their own travel destinations, and then the production team can cover their expenses. This trip is so easy!
[But then wouldn't this trip really be a trip?]
"No, I still want to see Tiantian and the others exploring Changbai Mountain. If they arrange their own travel arrangements, won't they be able to see anything?"
[Um... I can enjoy the scenery...]
[It's over, it's over. I still want to see Tiantian and the others collecting herbs in Changbai Mountain. Now if the production team pays for this trip, then it's all over.]
[Director Liu, please think of a way to stop them!]
"So, is it okay to let them save the request coupons for the next season? Or is this season really the last one, as people are saying online?"
[What do you mean by the last season? There won’t be a second season for this variety show? ]
[Director Liu, you can do it! Hurry up and sign them up to continue filming the second season!]
"No, I've been watching your show every day to save my life. If you don't continue recording, what else can I watch?"
For a while, netizens who had become accustomed to watching live broadcasts and, later, edited versions of variety shows, wailed in the live broadcast room, calling on Director Liu to quickly renew the contracts of Lu Chuanbei and others and continue recording the second season of the show.
Director Liu watched the live broadcast without saying a word.
After all, he also wanted to record this variety show as a longevity variety show, but under the current circumstances, he knew it was impossible. In order to prevent netizens from continuing to have expectations, he could only remain silent and continue watching the live broadcast.
After knowing Zhang Bosong and the others' plan, Lu Chuanbei and others actually breathed a sigh of relief.
Then, several adults gathered together and began to discuss how to make the best use of the usage request coupons.
After a discussion, Lu Chuanbei and others decided to use the two-chapter request coupons to ask the program team to arrange their food, travel and consumption expenses for the recording of the next few episodes.
Zhang Bosong, who had anticipated this, immediately nodded and agreed.
Next, it was up to Lu Chuanbei and the others to choose the desired scenic spots.
After thinking for a while, He Xuebin suddenly had an idea and suggested to Fang Xiuzhu and the others, "Old Fang and Xiaolu, do you think this will work?"
He Xuebin said, "We'll be recording in Changbai Mountain for about half a month anyway. During this time, why don't we each choose a place and then visit all of Changbai Mountain in the order we drew lots? What do you think of this idea?"
Xu Qi's eyes lit up and he nodded, "Sure, that way we can all go wherever we want."
"I think it's feasible too." Fang Xiuzhu agreed.
In this way, Lu Chuanbei and others decided that during the recording of the program, each of them could choose a tourist attraction to visit.
After discussion, everyone wrote down the places they wanted to go on blank pieces of paper prepared by the program team, and then played rock-paper-scissors to determine the order in which everyone would travel next.
"Are you all ready?" Zhang Bosong shouted as the referee.
"Ready!"
People who don’t know, listening to these people’s unanimous voices, might think they are shouting some important slogans.
But as soon as Zhang Bosong shouted the word "start", these guys all threw out their fists, palms, and scissors, and started playing rock-paper-scissors to choose the first person to draw the lot.
Soon, the first winner was chosen as the winner.
He Jingnian raised his hands and laughed: "I won, I won."
Zhang Bosong nodded. "Yes, our winner is He Jingnian. Now let's see where he wants to go."
He Jingnian hurriedly held up the note he had just written and shouted excitedly: "Changbai Mountain Tianchi! I want to see the water monster!"
"Okay, then let's head to Changbai Mountain Tianchi!"
At Zhang Bosong's command, the bus drove towards the Tianchi Lake in Changbai Mountain.
Song Tiantian and her team recorded the film at the end of September and the beginning of October. At this time, the first snow had not yet fallen on the snow-capped mountains, and the Tianchi Lake and the snow-capped mountains formed a striking white and blue scene.
If it snows heavily during the night for a month, Tianchi Lake will be frozen and the scenic spot will be temporarily closed. That’s why some people say that you need luck to see Tianchi Lake.
The bus continued to drive towards Changbai Mountain. Along the way, Song Tiantian and Xiangfangnan and other little guys were still excitedly talking about going to the snow mountain to find the snow monster, going to Tianchi to see the giant water monster, etc.
Lu Chuanbei and the others were a little more restrained, but they also had great expectations for the scenery on the snow-capped mountains.
Three hours later, Lu Chuanbei and his team arrived at the homestay that the program crew had booked in advance. It was a snow mountain homestay hotel, where they could not only enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Changbai Mountain snow-capped mountains, but also soak in hot springs.
As soon as they saw the word "hot spring", Lu Chuanbei and his friends, who had taken a flight for more than two hours and a bus ride for about three hours, became excited.
"Old Fang, look, there is a hot spring here!" He Xuebin shouted excitedly to Fang Xiuzhu and the others.
"That's great! I was just thinking that I was feeling stiff after sitting in the car for so long. Now I can go soak in a hot spring to relieve myself. It will definitely feel comfortable." Xu Qidian said excitedly.
"Let's go, let's go in and take a look first." He Xuebin said hurriedly, and hurriedly pulled the luggage towards the B&B.
Song Tiantian and her friends arrived just in time to avoid the peak season, so they quickly completed the check-in procedures and arrived at the small courtyard reserved for them by the program team...
