Youqing went back to her room, blocked the fixed camera, and then removed the recording equipment.
Youqing was indeed a little sleepy, but the most important thing now was to tidy up her things.
After packing her things, she finally took a nap, and when she woke up again it was already three o'clock.
She had slept well, and when she came out, Ye Yongzhou and Wang Haoyao were already awake.
"Teacher Ye, Hao Hao, good afternoon."
"good afternoon."
"good afternoon."
Wang Haoyao and Ye Yongzhou were actually only a few minutes more awake than Youqing; they arrived one after the other.
Seeing that the guests had all come down, the director quickly announced: "The production team can provide ingredients for lunch, but you'll have to figure out how to get the ingredients for dinner yourselves. The other two guests will be here soon, so you'll need to prepare ingredients for five people."
After the director finished speaking, he handed them a redemption form.
After looking at the exchange list, several people just wanted to curse.
Collecting 200 eggs for the villagers can be exchanged for half a chicken.
It's half a chicken, not a whole chicken.
You can exchange half a duck for helping villagers collect duck eggs.
You can exchange three goose eggs for helping the villagers feed the geese.
You can exchange a basket of chives for five eggs.
Helping villagers pick 100 ears of corn can be exchanged for half a pound of pork.
You can exchange five duck eggs for helping villagers feed their pigs once.
Helping villagers herd sheep for half a day can earn you a pound of pork ribs.
Just catch the fish and shrimp in the pond; there's no need to replace them.
...
There are others that are similar, basically meaning more work for less reward. This director is really a skinflint!
Ye Yongzhou looked at the director with a forced smile and said, "Director, isn't this a bit too much? This is just ripping people off."
Wang Haoyao: "That's right, director. There are only three of us. How many people do we need to work to gather enough ingredients for five people? It's already 3 o'clock. Isn't this making things difficult for us?"
The director thought to himself, "You guys made things difficult for me during lunch too, why didn't you mention that?"
"We're not trying to make things difficult for you. We all believe you can do it. Keep going, we'll always be there to cheer you on."
Youqing: "..."
Ye Yongzhou: "..."
Wang Haoyao: "..."
I'm so annoyed!
How could there be such a despicable director? It's infuriating!
No matter how infuriating the director is, he still has to do what needs to be done, otherwise the production team might really do something that leaves them without dinner. After all, the production team is just too despicable.
The last few people decided to pick corn first, since there were vegetables in the garden behind, and they needed to take care of the meat first.
It was a little after 3 p.m., and the sun was still quite hot. Since they were all celebrities, sun protection was naturally the top priority. The group changed into sun-protective clothing and then went down to the ground.
When it comes to picking corn, young people like Wang Haoyao have absolutely no experience. He's a typical city kid who's never been to the countryside. He can eat corn, but picking corn is a completely new experience for him.
Ye Yongzhou had indeed picked corn before, but that was decades ago. Growing up in the countryside, no matter if you were male or female, no matter how pampered you were at home, rural people still had to work in the fields. But that was decades ago. Having lived a life of luxury for so many years, he really didn't dare say he could do it.
As for Youqing, she was indeed experienced. During the Qing Dynasty, she had farmed with Emperor Kangxi, including growing corn, to experience life. She had even personally harvested corn.
They didn't pick many, but a hundred ears of corn and half a pound of meat, for five people, would weigh at least three or four pounds, which is seven or eight hundred ears of corn, not a small amount.
Once inside the field, the production crew filmed from the outside, and the children had no choice but to obediently start picking corn. At first, Wang Haoyao found it quite novel and even interesting, and he picked corn with great enthusiasm.
But he couldn't take it for long.
Picking corn is a mechanical process. Repeating the same mechanical action will tire you out, no matter how strong you are.
Not only that, the corn leaves are also very prickly. Celebrities need to be delicate and soft to be on camera, so even if they wear long sleeves, they can't stop the itching.
After picking corn for less than half an hour, the three of them were starting to feel the strain. But when they looked at the corn, they realized there wasn't enough, so they had no choice but to grit their teeth and keep picking.
Just then, a sound suddenly came from the selection.
"Hello, Teacher Ye, Youqing, Haoyao."
The sudden greeting caused everyone to stop what they were doing.
Looking up, I saw it was Shen Ping.
Youqing frowned slightly, then quickly recovered, without making a sound.
Why did this person come too? To be honest, although Shen Ping is a good person, You Qing doesn't really want to be around him, as it's rather awkward.
Shen Ping, on the other hand, acted as if nothing had happened and began to exchange pleasantries with a smile.
It's clear that Shen Ping is very well-connected; he knows the film emperor Ye Yongzhou and has also had dealings with Wang Haoyao.
No wonder they're from the entertainment industry.
After exchanging pleasantries with Ye Yongzhou and Wang Haoyao, Shen Ping said to Youqing, "Youqing, it's been a long time."
"Teacher Shen, it's been a long time."
It wasn't actually that long.
Youqing came over not long after she finished filming, and Shenping finished filming on the same day as her.
Ye Yongzhou asked, "Shen Ping and You Qing acted together in a movie?"
Before Youqing could speak, Shen Ping said, "The last movie I filmed was with Youqing."
The topic naturally shifted to "The Story of Anning," a collaboration between Youqing and Shenping, which could be considered a form of indirect publicity.
The entertainment industry is truly full of shrewd people.
After a brief reminiscing, Chen Ping asked, "Teacher Ye, are you picking corn?"
Ye Yongzhou gave a wry smile: "That's right, the production team made us break corn to exchange for ingredients."
