This is the first time I have seen such an arrogant debtor.
Pei Xu, unlike his usual efficient manner, packed his luggage slowly. His brothers sent him to the basement. The car door was half open and everyone looked at each other in silence.
"Let's go back, or we'll be surrounded by illegitimate fans and it will be troublesome." Pei Xu looked at them with sunglasses on, his eyes a little hot.
"Something for you." Jiang Lin handed it to him proudly. Pei Xu stared at the silver bracelet on his wrist and asked with some sadness, "What's inside?"
"Don't check it in." Jiang Lin turned his back to the car door, "Carry it on the plane and open it when you get home."
Thousands of words turned into one sentence: "Brother Xu, have a safe journey, let me know when you get home."
As the sun was setting, Pei Xu opened the gate of the courtyard. The belated loss and loneliness filled his heart. He sat blankly at the square table, and the memories of the past were played before his eyes like an old movie.
"Brother Xu." Cheng Enyue poked his head out with a spatula and shouted, "Hurry up and go to Grandma Liu's house to pick some chili peppers. The brothers said last time that the braised fish lacked spiciness."
The bathroom door was slightly open, and Jiang Lin asked for help: "Pei Xu, there is no shower gel. Can you help me open the package I received yesterday? There is shower gel in it."
Li Xuran and Song Yifan ran into the yard one after the other and confronted each other around the square table. Song Yifan accused: "Li Xuran, how old are you? Why are you still catching bugs to scare people?"
Li Xuran smiled evilly and said, "I'm eighteen years old. How can a grown man be afraid of bugs?"
Song Yifan chased him and cursed, "I'll ask Xiaobao to catch a snake to scare you someday!"
Xiang Chuzhe came back with two plates of fragrant peanut pancakes and shouted loudly: "Brothers, Grandma Liu just fried some peanut pancakes, they smell so good! Come out and eat them quickly!" The brothers responded in unison, and then rushed over and the two plates of peanut pancakes were swept away.
"Ah..." Pei Xu opened the box and picked up a unique red wine goblet. The cup was inlaid with diamonds in the shape of an "X". A silver butterfly was fixed at the intersection of the letter X and two thin silver chains hung down. He took a photo and sent it to the sender, asking, "Did you make it yourself?"
Outside the window is a familiar night scene. The traffic in Beijing at night is like flowing water and the lights are bright. Unlike the solar street lights in Peijia Village, when it is cloudy and rainy, the lights are dim and you have to turn on the flashlight on your mobile phone.
The red wine in the glass swayed slightly. Jiang Lin leaned against the glass window and read the news. He chuckled and said, "I am also naive. I actually believed that sending a cup could represent a lifetime of meaning."
"I was just doing this for fun because I was bored. Do you dislike it?" Jiang Lin pressed the send button.
Pei Xu took out a few cans of cold beer from the refrigerator and looked up at the moon.
"I was a little disgusted, but not much. I used it to drink beer."
"That's a red wine glass. Isn't it unsophisticated?" Jiang Lin took a photo of the red wine in his hand. "It should contain red liquid, not light yellow."
Pei Xu teased him: "Don't worry, I'll use it to fill the soy milk tomorrow morning."
Those who stayed where they were were particularly miserable. The traces and memories of the past were like a slow knife scraping Pei Xu's heart, and he stayed awake all night.
One month after the boys left Peijia Village, the program came to an end. The production team arranged a live broadcast to watch the finale. The boys shed tears in the live broadcast room, which caused a large number of fans to break down. That night, the term "Let's go to the fields to finale" became the number one hot search.
"My Utopia should not end! The production crew has rested enough, start filming the second season!"
"All the sponsors of the first season, please keep your eyes open and arrange for the second season!"
"Wow, wow, wow, I saw Pei Xu quietly going to the field to turn on the integrated water and fertilizer drip irrigation system. I felt inexplicably sad!"
In a private room at a high-end restaurant, glasses were clinking as a brand's business director said politely, "The show has concluded. The results are extraordinary. It has jumped to the top of the variety show charts in recent years. Director Zhou, congratulations!"
“Thank you Director Dong for the compliment. The success of the program today is entirely due to everyone’s efforts and our excellent young people.”
"Director Zhou, what do you think of our last proposal?" Director Dong raised his eyebrows slightly. "Director Zhou has been in the entertainment industry for many years and has seen a lot. He is a smart man with a long-term vision. Our brand believes that Director Zhou will definitely make the best choice."
"The strength of your brand is obvious to all. It is a great honor for us to have your favor for our program." Director Zhou paused and said hesitantly, "But if we change the cast for the second season, I am afraid it will cause a stir and lead to a boycott by fans."
"Director Zhou, don't worry. You've been in the industry for so many years, you must be well aware of the ways of the world and the ups and downs of life. Now it's just a period of withdrawal for a group of fangirls, and their emotions are backlashing. As long as the show is still there, it doesn't matter who replaces them in the second season. The amazing thing is not them, nor the fans, but the show you created yourself."
Director Zhou contacted the public relations company that night and released some gossip, which made the fans ecstatic.
"Teacher, are you a connection to the show's crew? Will the show really be on the second season?"
"I believe it! I hope to see the Reuters footage of their departure from the airport tomorrow."
"Oh my? Did my dream come true? Or did I hallucinate from staying up all night? Don't lie to me! The kid is looking forward to the second season!"
Li Xuran sent the online news about the second season to the group and said excitedly: "Brothers, it feels like we will be reunited soon."
"Although I have a lot of odd jobs now, I really miss the days in the village." Song Yifan added a missing emoji, "I believe it first! Marketing accounts, please don't deceive me!"
Xiang Chuzhe shared: "I went to a music festival last week, and there were so many little hamsters in the audience. They stayed up all night to queue up in order to stand in the front row to cheer for me. When I came on stage, they waved their cheering flags vigorously and cheered for me loudly. At that moment, I felt that how could we be so worthy of their enthusiastic love!"
Jiang Lin finished his work and went home from the recording studio. He scrolled through the messages in the group and responded, "Our performance in the first season has attracted attention from the industry. The rumors about the second season may have been deliberately released by the investors to test the reactions of all parties. Brothers, we have to go home and farm together, otherwise the chairman will cry."
"I'm not crying." Pei Xu rolled her eyes and said proudly, "Don't forget that I still owe you money. If you don't come back, I will block you, delete you and run away."
Jiang Lin opened his personal chat box and asked, "Run away? Where to?"
Pei Xu was sitting in the courtyard enjoying the cool breeze, and he responded leisurely: "You know so much about it, will you sponsor me for a plane ticket?"
"Sure, I'll sponsor you a plane ticket to Beijing." Jiang Lin looked at the scenery outside the car window. Beijing, where he had lived for a long time, seemed so big and so small at the moment. It was not like the small corner of Peijia Village, but it was full of fun and fireworks.
"I'm not going to Beijing, can I just deliver it to my door?" Pei Xu quickly clicked send, thought for a few seconds and quickly made amends: "I'm a debtor."
"This is the first time I see a debtor being so arrogant." Jiang Lin couldn't help but chuckle.
President Dong found Director Zhou again and said, "Director Zhou, the news of the second season's preparations has been fermenting on the Internet for a few days, and the response from all parties is very good. I think you should seize the opportunity. Otherwise, a piece of fat meat will easily attract covetousness, and it is hard to say whether you can get a share of it when the time comes."
"President Dong is well-informed. In the past few days, several brands have approached me to discuss sponsorship for the second season. If we officially hold an investment conference, sponsorship will only be taken to a higher level." Director Zhou looked at his ambitious face, took a deep breath, and said, "But if we rashly change the cast for the second season, I'm worried that the situation will get out of control. After all, the six members of Mancang are the backbone of the show."
"Director Zhou, you are also a veteran in the industry. You know the essence of changing the soup but not the medicine best. If the second season still has the original cast, they will not accept recording for free like the first season. Although their individual fan base is not large now, only Jiang Lin has consolidated his fans with his past achievements and has a fan base of over 10 million. However, the number of group fans is huge, and the agency behind them will definitely not agree to appear without pay. Instead of negotiating, you might as well audition a few more people. With the IP, there are many small-time celebrities willing to post for free. With the unchanged IP core, the newcomers will still attract a large number of fans, waiting for you to harvest."
Director Zhou pondered for a while and asked, "What about the venue?"
“Hahahaha.” President Dong smiled. “Director Zhou, there are so many rural areas. Just find a place to rent a few wastelands and build a few fish ponds. Then you’ll have something for the show. They like watching people farming, so just plant a few more plots.”
The second season of "Let's Go Farming Together" was officially announced, and the promotional poster used their silhouettes from behind, which went viral on fans.
"It turns out that the rumors online are not groundless. After waiting for so many days, it is finally officially announced!"
"Today is a good day, I have to play a song called Good Luck! Ah! Season 2 is really here!"
"Double happiness! Tomorrow they will appear together in Yuemuxiang's live broadcast room. After a month and a half, the little bitter melons are finally getting together!"
"Hurry up and make the second season! I'm still waiting for the rose cheese to be available online again. My kids are really craving it!"
His agent, Sister Xiu, handed him a bottle of mineral water, then sat on the sofa with her legs crossed and said, "Jiang Lin, I think something is wrong. The production team bypassed your agency and directly announced the second season. They are either stupid or they don't treat us as human beings."
Jiang Lin drank the water calmly, then looked at her calmly and said, "Sister Xiu, you can be more straightforward. The program team kicked us out, but it was just a trick to attract investment and keep fans."
Sister Xiu said with a gloomy look in her eyes: "Since they are unkind, don't blame us for being unjust. I will never allow your career, which has just started to take off, to be ruined like this."
The Beijing team gathered at Jiang Lin's house. Song Yifan angrily threw the tablet on the carpet and said angrily, "They are better at playing yo-yo than crossing the river and destroying the bridge! The official Weibo did not mention us at all, but the silhouette used us. They are deceiving both sides. It's disgusting!"
Cheng Enyue said calmly: "I've been in the entertainment industry for a long time, and I'm used to it. When I saw the official announcement, I wasn't surprised at all. People really keep silent when they are speechless."
"Brothers are going to be silent in the circle again." Li Xuran said: "Once again, we are making wedding clothes for others. Why are we still in the domestic entertainment industry? We might as well just go farming. It will be happier than being in the circle."
"Sister Xiu has already contacted the president of the group's fan club. Tomorrow the news will spread online. We can not have a second season, but we will never allow them to use the guise of agriculture to hold a talent show!"
