Just as Deputy Director Tian felt pain in his heart facing the green mountains and clear waters, a group of people at the Capital Airport were also feeling pain in their hearts as they looked at the big plane on the runway.
They are the staff of the "37 Weeks" program.
Because the planning was improvised, the program team naturally had to be formed temporarily. When faced with a "recruitment", everyone chose without exception -
Hide as far as you can.
after all,
This is a program that takes a year to shoot on-site! It feels like being exiled to a remote frontier in ancient times.
Therefore, all those who ended up here were unlucky guys who were drafted into the army. Now that all the unlucky guys gathered here, it was decided to rank them among the unlucky guys.
The director's surname was Chen, he was nearly 40 years old, and his eyes were sharp. He asked this group of unfortunate people: "Let me ask in advance, is there anyone willing to take the initiative to go to Tianya Village?"
"I--"
A hand was raised, but after it was raised, Xiao Zhang, the sound engineer, suddenly realized that he seemed to be the only idiot who could not think straight. People around him were looking at him as if he was a "hero who was ready to die". Such admiring eyes made him doubt whether he was really being stupid.
"Okay, then Xiao Zhang, you go to Tianya Village."
Director Chen looked at the others again, and seeing that they all had their heads shrunk, trying to avoid him, he shook his head.
No wonder everyone looks like this.
Being assigned abroad for a year is bad enough. If you are assigned to a poor mountainous area, where there is no internet, no entertainment, communication is difficult, transportation is inconvenient, you have to walk more than ten miles to buy a pack of instant noodles, and there are even power outages every now and then...
Not to mention going, just thinking about it is enough to make people suffer.
Director Chen saw this and said, "Then let's be fair and draw lots for the same positions. The one who draws the red lot will go to Tianya Village, is that okay?"
"That's all we can do."
At present, we can only leave the future to God's will.
"Zhao Jie, Langya City."
"Dong Chengwu, Tianya Village."
"Meng Pengfei, Tianya Village..."
Two people in the same position, one smiling happily, the other mourning, a vivid human comedy. Director Chen did not let himself off, he met with the producer Li, and then stretched out his hand to draw the lot.
"Blank... Lao Li, thank you for your hard work this time."
Director Li's good-natured face couldn't help but reveal a trace of pain, but he still managed a smile and nodded, saying, "I'll take care of that."
Director Chen saw this and turned to everyone, "Don't think that if you draw a red ticket, you will stay in the mountains forever. Let's be fair. The shortest is one month, and the longest is three months. We can rotate the personnel on both sides. There shouldn't be any problem with that, right?"
After this was said, those unlucky people who had drawn Tianya Village finally saw a glimmer of hope, while those who were lucky enough to have drawn Langya City began to worry about how to survive the difficult time in the mountains after the rotation.
People on both sides boarded the plane.
A large-scale social experiment lasting nearly a year - "Internet addiction? Teenagers, 37 weeks before the college entrance examination."
It’s about to officially begin.
…
After getting off the plane, Director Chen and his team boarded a bus that had been prepared by the local TV station and soon arrived at the Gratitude Education Center for Internet Addiction Treatment. It was not difficult to find, as it was right in the city center.
The people from the program crew got off the bus and breathed a sigh of relief.
No wonder they all wanted to come here, after all, it was in the city center, with everything available. After silently sympathizing with their unfortunate colleague who was exiled to the mountains, they looked towards the gate.
There, Professor Yang was leading a group of teachers and students, holding a banner welcoming the program crew.
"Excuse me, are you the director?" Professor Yang strode forward.
"Yes, my last name is Chen!"
Director Chen paused for a moment while looking at the welcoming students and said, "Professor Yang, can we record some footage now?"
"Of course, of course!"
At Director Chen's signal, the photographer immediately took close-up photos of the students who lined up to welcome him. Professor Yang also introduced them to Director Chen tirelessly:
"We have already been prepared to accept your move-in. If you don't mind, let me introduce you to the general situation of our school?"
"Well, okay! Thank you, Professor Yang. I will ask bluntly then."
Director Chen signaled the program crew to turn the other camera to his side, and the two of them started talking as they walked into the school.
"Professor Yang, I heard that this place used to be a mental hospital? Is that true?"
Professor Yang's heart was slightly moved. He didn't expect Director Chen to know this. Obviously Director Chen had done enough homework on his school. Fortunately, Professor Yang was also prepared. He smiled and said:
"Ah, that's all in the past! Now this place is a gratitude education center, and it has nothing to do with the past."
Professor Yang was halfway through his words when he saw Director Chen looking thoughtfully at the heavy iron gate of the Gratitude Education Center and the two security posts on the left and right. He quickly introduced, "Our school adopts the strictest military management. Everyone entering and leaving must be checked to prevent any bad habits from spreading among the students."
"What bad habits do you mean?"
"It's like this. Some students secretly bring things like cell phones, game consoles, magazines, and novels to school. We must strictly prohibit things like these that affect their healthy physical and mental growth!"
After a pause, Professor Yang continued, "But don't worry, the staff of the program team can still enter and leave the school at will. However, according to the rules of our school, they need to be checked when entering and leaving."
"That's no problem. I'll tell others to do as the Romans do."
"This is the cafeteria. Students eat here. Director, I have prepared a small cafeteria for you next to it—"
"Professor Yang, you don't have to worry about it!" Director Chen interrupted, "Let our director team eat in the cafeteria with the students, so that we can better observe their daily lives. Of course, we will pay for your meals and accommodation, as well as a performance fee."
"Director, you are so polite. How can I charge you money?"
Professor Yang said with a smile, but he did not refuse. After all, these were all matters in the open, so as long as they were done openly, it would be fine.
As for private matters, he has plenty of time and is not in a hurry.
Professor Yang continued to take the program crew to tour the entire education center.
"This is our reception hall, where we receive parents... This is our teaching building... This is the playground... This is our conference hall, where we hold lectures..."
After looking around, Director Chen suddenly asked, "Professor Yang, I heard that there are several treatment rooms in your school. Can you take us to have a look?"
