In Yang Yi's previous life, there was a public service advertisement on the internet called "Using Wisdom to See the Invisible Things". It was about a vegetable market's lady boss who was collecting rent when it was uploaded onto the internet. Netizens grabbed onto the video clip to show the lady boss's inhumane side and criticized it. They tried to use language to scold the lady boss to death and tried to persuade the people nearby not to go to the market to buy vegetables.
However, these netizens did not know that the lady boss's harsh words were just her habitual mouth. In fact, she was kind on the surface and had helped many people.
The camera captured her collecting rent fiercely, but it did not capture her collecting rent. If she collected too much money, she would not be greedy, but return it to the stall owner who was running a small business.
The camera captured her smashing someone else's scale, but it did not capture her smashing the scale that was short. It did not capture her asking the stall owner to buy a good scale in exasperation, nor did it capture her persuading others to run their business with integrity.
There were many things that the camera could not capture, such as her asking the deaf and mute to sell vegetables at her own market instead of drifting aimlessly outside.
In spite of this, the netizens dared not come to the market due to the online violence. Although the video ended abruptly, it was expected that the situation would only worsen …
In this world, most people liked to judge people and things on the surface, or they liked to take things out of context and go with the flow.
However, Yuan Yan was not such a person!
Among the three people chosen by the program, Yuan Yan was only satisfied with Ju Jie. He did not know enough about Guo Ziyi and Yang Huan, especially Yang Huan. After knowing that Yang Huan was Yang Yi's younger sister, Yuan Yan was vaguely displeased.
How could a show with potential involve so much nepotism? Was this not self-destruction?
However, Yuan Yan did not make a conclusion immediately. Instead, he asked Yun Yangfeng and Ren Min to wait while he went to another room and searched for Shen Wanyi's phone number.
Shen Wanyi was slightly older than Yuan Yan. However, Yuan Yan and Shen Wanyi both graduated from the Shanghai Drama Academy. Shen Wanyi could be considered as Yuan Yan's senior, so the two of them had a close relationship.
Yuan Yan called Shen Wanyi. Coincidentally, although Shen Wanyi was filming, he was filming someone else's scene. He sat by the side and waited. The assistant passed the phone to Shen Wanyi.
Through the conversation with Shen Wanyi, Yuan Yan roughly knew what kind of person Yang Huan, who played Li Yunlong's wife, was.
"Capable, hardworking, efficient, emotional..." Yuan Yan looked at the paper and noted down some of the key words that Shen Wanyi mentioned about Yang Huan. He muttered, "Of course, the most important thing is that she has real kung fu. The martial artists in the crew can't beat Yang Huan!"
When Shen Wanyi was talking about Yang Huan, his tone was full of admiration. He admired Yang Huan's fighting skills. In the entertainment industry, there were not many actresses who could fight.
In that case, even if Yang Huan was a backdoor entrant, he seemed to have a pretty good persona.
Yuan Yan did not let Yun Yangfeng and the rest wait for too long. He came back with a plate of cut fruits and asked Yun Yangfeng and Ren Mang to eat while smiling, "Where are the other two? Who do you have in mind? "
"We haven't had the time to contact the other two teachers. Our initial choice is Teacher Dan Hongkui and Teacher Ma Jianwei." Yun Yangfeng was relieved to see that Yuan Yan was still chatting casually when he came back.
"Old Dan and Old Ma are not bad, especially Old Dan. He's been through hard times. Let me tell you, he has a rich life experience, so he can act like whatever he wants to act in! He can tell you a thing or two about anything when you talk to him. With him around, there's no need to be afraid of awkward silence during the recording! "Yuan Yan pushed his glasses and nodded slightly.
Yuan Yan had a rough idea of the selection criteria of the program team. He was more satisfied that after the three youngsters were chosen, they did not pick any more youngsters. Instead, they picked some middle-aged artists to add to the background of the program.
Indeed, in a program, there should be a reasonable combination. The youths' drive and passion, the middle-aged's steadiness and maturity, complemented each other well. It would be inappropriate if they were biased towards either.
"I'll help you call Old Dan and Old Ma to ask for their opinions. I'm familiar with them!" Yuan Yan had decided to accept the invitation. Although he had not officially agreed, he felt that since he was going to do it, he should do his best and pull a few suitable friends to play "The Limit Challenge".
"That's great! Thank you!" Yun Yangfeng said in surprise.
Both of them added together could not even compare to a word from Yuan Yan!
Soon, Dan Hongkui's phone was dialed by Yuan Yan. Yuan Yan told Dan Hongkui that he was going to participate in the program and wanted to drag him along.
"The program isn't bad. We can innovate and create new tricks. Why not give it a try?" Yuan Yan easily convinced Dan Hongkui.
Dan Hongkui had reached a preliminary agreement. Of course, the specifics still needed Yun Yangfeng and Ren Min to visit and discuss in person. However, with this phone call, Dan Hongkui could basically confirm it.
However, things did not go so smoothly.
Ma Jianwei did not agree. He was really busy. Ma Jianwei, who was not picky about roles, had accepted many film contracts. His schedule was arranged from the beginning of the year to the end of the year. He could be called the entertainment industry's model worker.
"Do you have any other candidates?" Yuan Yan asked after putting down the phone.
"In the end, we're considering Teacher Jie Yuchen and Teacher Sun Zhenyue," Yun Yangfeng said.
"Sun Zhenyue. He's a little younger and has a straightforward personality. Let me think, Old Xie might be better. Let me tell you, Old Xie is a little arrogant, but it's not arrogance in the sense of pride. Using the popular saying now, he's just a little arrogant. Maybe it's because he's filmed too many important roles and can't let go of the burden of being an idol." Yuan Yan said with a smile, "But it doesn't matter. Old Xie has a good personality. You can criticize him or scold him. As long as it's reasonable, he won't hold a grudge."
Since Yuan Yan said that Jie Yuchen was suitable, he would first test Jie Yuchen's opinion.
"Variety show? I don't go on variety shows. Don't look for me! "As expected, Jie Yuchen rejected her right away.
"There's nothing absolute in this world. It's not like you're allergic to variety shows. Let me tell you how fun this show is. Just listen … "Yuan Yan told Jie Yuchen everything.
Eventually, Jie Yuchen was tempted. Perhaps he was tired from filming and wanted to change things to adjust his mentality, so he became the last celebrity host of The Limit Challenge.
With Yuan Yan's help, The Limit Challenge went unexpectedly smoothly. However, due to the arrival of the Spring Festival, Yun Yangfeng did not announce it immediately. Instead, he held it back and continued his preparations.
Everything was ready, except for the final push!
…
The Spring Festival was here. Yang Huan brought Yang Chonggui and Dong Yuee back to their hometown to celebrate the new year while Yang Yi, Murphy, and the two children stayed in River City.
There was nothing they could do about it.
Plans could never keep up with changes. Yang Yi thought that Tong Tong would recover quickly, but Tong Tong did not have diarrhea anymore and his face was slowly turning rosy.
However, perhaps it was because he caught a cold from taking a stroll outside, or some other reason, the little guy caught a cold on the twenty-seventh day of the lunar calendar.
The little guy started sneezing at night and coughed the next day. His nose was running, his eyes were red, and he had a slight fever of more than thirty-eight degrees Celsius.
Yang Yi and Murphy quickly brought him to the hospital to see a doctor. It was a viral cold. The fever was not high, so he did not need to take medicine, but he had to be taken good care of at home.
To let the little guy sleep comfortably, reduce outdoor activities, and increase the humidity in the house, Yang Yi even bought an air humidifier on his way back.
According to the doctor's advice, they had spent a long time at home. It was obvious that they could not bring Tong Tong back to the countryside under such circumstances.
Murphy had privately protested to Yang Yi. After all, if Tong Tong's condition worsened after they returned to their hometown, it would be a huge problem to seek medical treatment.
Murphy was right, and Yang Yi understood that.
In fact, Tong Tong was only two months old. No matter what, he should not have to travel such a long distance to such a remote environment in his hometown.
However, Yang Yi and Murphy were inexperienced. Murphy used to live on her father's farm, which was not considered a rural area. It was a short drive to the town, and the medical facilities there were not bad at all. Yang Yi had never experienced such a thing before. When he brought Xi Xi home, Xi Xi was already four years old. She did not have to worry about such things at all.
Luckily, there was still time to deal with the problem.
In order to take care of Tong Tong, Yang Yi had to stay in Jiangcheng with Murphy and Xi Xi. Yang Huan was the only one who could bring the old folks home to celebrate the New Year.
This was another problem. Without any preparation, how could Yang Yi bring Xixi to celebrate the New Year with the four of them in such a lively manner?
