After deciding on Zheng Kai, Zheng Kai headed for the ropeway. The ropeway was set above the river. Looking down, one could see the turbulent river. Moreover, the height made people shudder. Although Zheng Kai was a man, men were also afraid of heights.
Now, there were many staff members adjusting the props. Most of them were wearing safety helmets. Zheng Kai looked left and right. Everyone had protective equipment, but it seemed like he was the only one who didn't. He was a little depressed.
"This … Is it safe …" Zheng Kai was a little unsteady. He didn't dare to stand to the side, but he was embarrassed to shrink back. Although he wanted to, it would make him look like a coward. How could he survive like this? Therefore, he stood in the middle and tried his best to make himself look more natural.
Zheng Kai took a few deep breaths and prepared himself mentally. He took two steps forward and stopped. The rolling river in front of him was really daunting. He had experience in climbing, but even if he reached Mount Everest, at least his feet were on solid ground. He knew that no matter how scared he was, he wouldn't fall unless he rolled. However, standing here was different. There was only a wooden board under his feet. Two more steps and it would be a bottomless abyss. No one would face such a situation without a change of expression.
"Oh my God." Although Zheng Kai was a little scared, he still tried his best to maintain a smile. As an artist, trying to maintain his most appropriate appearance in front of the camera was almost instinctive. No matter how scared he was, he wouldn't act like he was scared out of his wits. On this point, it was the camera that helped him stabilize his emotions. If he was here alone, it was very likely that he would lose control.
There was nothing on the surface of the river, not even a bird. There were only four iron ropes suspended in the air, forming a ropeway in pairs. Zheng Kai would set off from there in a while and go all the way to the other side of the river. The worst thing was that he would have to come back later. He wondered if the production crew had kindly arranged for a ferry to send him back.
Speaking of ferries, there was a self-made ferry on the Yellow River called "sheepskin raft". As the name implied, sheepskin rafts were rafts made of sheepskin. After sewing the sheepskin and filling it with gas, it looked like a fat suckling pig. Many sheepskins were tied together and a frame made of bamboo was attached to it. Then, it was ready to sail.
Before the shipbuilding industry was developed, the residents here used sheepskin rafts to cross the river.
However, Zheng Kai didn't like sheepskin rafts because the smell of sheepskin rafts was too strong. Some people couldn't smell it, or they didn't dislike the smell. However, Zheng Kai hated the smell of sheepskin. Even if it was disinfected, his nose could still smell it. Therefore, if he had to choose between a sheepskin raft and a cableway, he would rather choose the cableway.
Thinking of this, his heart did indeed feel much better.
Finally mentally preparing himself, Zheng Kai said to the staff, "Come on, I'm ready."
The staff member gave him a thumbs up and comforted him. "Don't worry, I've worked here for many years, and there has never been an accident."
Zheng Kai smiled at him. Then, he was invited to the pulley of the cable. Under the pulley, there was something like a birdcage. When Zheng Kai sat down, it was just the right size. There was a safety belt on it. After fastening it, it could ensure that he wouldn't fall. The staff carefully checked his safety belt. After confirming that there was no problem, he gave him a safety helmet. This could ensure his safety to the greatest extent. Of course, this was also the rule of the cableway. These measures were indispensable. Although the staff was very confident in their site, safety measures had to be taken, just in case.
After all, this was a dangerous high-altitude cable. There were more than one or two celebrities here. The staff was quite used to such a scene. In his eyes, everyone was just a guest. Everyone was the same. If they didn't take good care of the safety measures, something would happen.
There was once a certain self-proclaimed explorer who wanted to reject all safety measures and film an unprotected cableway scene. However, the staff refused. After all, it was fun to show off. When the time came, they would be the ones to compensate and their reputation would be damaged. Therefore, this kind of thing couldn't be allowed to happen.
Fortunately, most of the celebrities were very cooperative because everyone cherished their lives. For example, Zheng Kai in front of them.
Others rushed over to cheer for Zheng Kai.
"A little." Zheng Kai smiled and didn't deny it. Sometimes, the more you tried to be brave, the more afraid you would be. If he told others that he wasn't afraid now, a lot of fear would surge in his heart. However, when he said that he was a little afraid now, he felt a little more relaxed.
He was a little scared, indeed a little scared. Of course, he was a little scared. He was definitely scared, right? He didn't believe that there was anyone in his position who wasn't scared. If someone really said that they weren't scared, then that person must be pretending. He didn't need to judge this. Everyone would know. Because everyone had such a mentality. Everyone would be afraid. It was just a matter of degree.
"When you sit here, you can feel it …" Zheng Kai looked at the river in front of him. Now that he was wearing a safety helmet, other than the camera in front of him and the river in front of him, he could only see the people next to him from the corner of his eye. It really felt like there was only him, the camera, and the river between heaven and earth. And that river might very well be his home today.
He looked into the distance and tried his best not to look at the river. He looked at the beautiful rivers and mountains opposite him. No, his home was not the river, but the beautiful future waiting for him. He could definitely do it.
Just as he was brewing his lofty aspirations, Jia Ling said from the side, "You're stunned."
Zheng Kai's expression was still very confused. He didn't have his usual cleverness at all. Every cell on his face was filled with the words "I'm very nervous". When Jia Ling said that, the lofty aspirations that he had gathered with great difficulty disappeared in an instant. He couldn't help but feel even more nervous.
However, Jia Ling couldn't be blamed for this because there was no trace of "lofty aspirations" on his face. It was just a face full of confusion. "…"
