Dian Province, Tengchong, Lisu Dabian Village.

This is a small village with a population of less than 100 households. It is located on the border of China and Myanmar. The villagers live scattered on the hillside and make a living by hunting and planting.

Due to inconvenient transportation, backward infrastructure, low education level and other reasons, the economic situation of this village is extremely poor. It can even be regarded as one of the poorest areas in China. Even if you search the entire village, you can't find a few two-wheeler vehicles. Something with wheels that can move - whether it's a bicycle or a motorcycle.

But today, several beasts broke into the village.

A hard-core off-road vehicle with four wheels, a large body, and full of modern mechanical power.

The bodies of these off-road vehicles were covered with mud, and there were wading marks on the front covers. It was obvious that they had put in a lot of effort to reach this remote village.

But for the people in the car, the effort is worth it.

Because what they are about to do may very well change the structure of the world - at least in their own eyes.

A woman wearing sunglasses and exquisite makeup stepped out of the car. She first took the tissue handed by the assistant and gently wiped the sweat off her face. Then she looked around, nodded with satisfaction and asked:

"Are the machines and equipment ready?"

"Sister Shao Ji, you are ready and ready to shoot at any time."

The assistant on the side responded and threw the tissue on the ground. The eyes of the young children looking at them curiously not far away also turned to the piece of toilet paper stained with lipstick on the ground.

They don't understand what lipstick is, and naturally they don't understand where the color on the white paper comes from.

Shao Ji noticed the sight of the children in the distance, and the expression on her face immediately became gentle. She squatted down slightly, stretched out her hand and shouted to the children:

"Kids, come here, sister will give you some sweets."

The children's suspicious eyes swept over her body, and then noticed the various filming equipment that had been moved from the car. After a brief hesitation, everyone left in a hurry.

In their perception, anything unfamiliar is dangerous, and this woman has brought so many unfamiliar things, so her danger is self-evident.

Seeing this scene, Shao Ji shook his head helplessly, then stood up again and asked:

"Are the actors ready? If they are, let them go around the village first, learn the behavior of these villagers, and chat with the villagers, including the small details of the conversation, so as not to be seen. flaw."

"To perform a play well, it's not enough just to have good language. What we want is 100% reproduction, just as if they were villagers!"

Upon hearing this, the assistant on the side quickly replied:

"Don't worry, Sister Shao Ji. We have made these preparations several days in advance, and the venue has been rented. We are just waiting for you to come over today and finish shooting this scene. After post-processing, we can submit it."

"That's good. You guys are quite professional. I'm afraid of dealing with unprofessional people. If I don't act well, I'll be in trouble. Okay, now put on my makeup."

"Okay, Sister Shao Ji, please sit down first. I'll call the makeup artist over right away."

After that, the assistant waved over the makeup artist who had been waiting for a long time and began to put makeup on the woman.

However, unlike normal makeup, he is not so much applying makeup as removing it.

All the original delicate makeup on the woman's face was wiped away, replaced by simple light makeup, the eye circles were slightly red, a few slender crow's feet were added to the corners of the eyes, shadows were applied on the silkworms to match the light highlights on the cheekbones, and the nasolabial folds were Deliberately deepened, coupled with the messy hair, an image of a tired person after a trek instantly appeared in front of everyone.

Shao Ji looked at himself in the mirror with satisfaction, and then said:

"Here, a little bit behind the ear, give me a little bit of mud, just a little bit."

The makeup artist obediently wiped a handful of muddy water from the ground and carefully flicked it behind Shao Ji's ears with a makeup brush. Shao Ji waited patiently for the muddy water to dry before reaching out and wiping off part of it.

Immediately afterwards, she put on the clothes she had prepared a long time ago, and also sprinkled muddy water on less conspicuous places. After everything was ready, she breathed a sigh of relief, nodded to all the staff and said:

"Start. Turn on the phone!"

With her order, the photographer, props team, and director team all took action, and the filming of a "documentary interview" officially began.

"Hello friends, we are now in a small village called Dabian on the border of Yunnan Province. In this village, we are going to interview a special villager."

"You must have all seen the news about the killing of border smugglers. There are different opinions on this matter on the Internet, and there are many rumors among them. So what are the facts?"

"So today, after dozens of hours of trekking, we finally arrived at the home of one of the victims of this incident. Here, we will interview his mother to find out the truth of the incident."

"Please note that we did not receive official assistance for this interview, so there is absolutely no possibility of official manipulation of public opinion. What we are going to bring to you is the most authentic story."

As he spoke, Shao Ji walked towards the scene that had been prepared long ago. There, the actor who played the so-called victim's mother was already in place. She was sitting at the door of the dilapidated house with a dull expression, her clothes were tattered and thin, her hair was pale and messy, The expression on his face was full of sadness.

Even Shao Ji, who was well prepared, was aroused by the scene in front of her, as if she was really interviewing the poor mother of a white-haired man giving away a black-haired man.

According to the design of the script, Shao Ji stepped forward to say hello to this "mother", but no matter how hard she tried, the woman just looked ahead blankly, not responding to anything from the outside world at all.

"In desperation," Shao Ji took the photographer around the dilapidated house and took pictures of all the props they had prepared in advance.

These props include half-sewn cloth shoes, a photo of the so-called son, burning incense stuck in the corner, only a corner of paper money burned in the stove, rice in the rice vat that is almost bottomed, and a cancer diagnosis notice on the table. Books, and, under the old mattress, a total of less than a hundred yuan in change.

All these elements are combined together, plus the helpless old woman sitting at the door, and the prototype of a story is immediately presented in such a silent way.

In an already extremely poor peasant family, because the old mother was unfortunately diagnosed with cancer, the son took the risk to sell the food he was most familiar with overseas. Unfortunately, he ran into an anti-smuggling patrol and was shot to death indiscriminately. The remaining old mother can only wait helplessly to die.

Such a story, no matter where it is placed, will arouse strong sympathy and resonance.

After finishing the interview with the old woman, in order to further strengthen the authenticity of the story, Shao Ji took the camera crew to interview the old woman's neighbors. From their mouths, he learned about the so-called "distressed" son. , is usually a filial, down-to-earth, smart and simple young man, but because he is a minority and his family conditions are not good, he has never found a wife. Over time, he has gradually become accustomed to being single. He just wants to serve his mother first and wait for her. Think about yourself after the immortal has passed away.

However, even if it was such a small wish, he did not realize it in the end.

"It would be a pity for this young man, what if"

"etc!"

Shao Ji frowned and interrupted:

"It's not 'What a pity', it's 'Kuo Xi Liao'. How did you pronounce the lines? You have to bring yourself into the character, understand? Look at the villagers around you. Do their Mandarin standards as well as yours? This is a re-recording!"

The actor who was scolded by Shao Ji scratched his head in embarrassment, then nodded and replied:

"I'm sorry, Sister Shao Ji, one more, I promise!"

Shao Ji waved and walked back to where he was. After adjusting his expression, he returned to shooting.

Several people were busy until about 4 o'clock in the afternoon before they finally completed the video shooting. The editor immediately started editing the video non-stop. In addition to the main content of the video, he also added a clip of bustling scenes from various cities at the end of the video. Finally, it is paired with an aerial shot of a mountain village with lights like beans at night.

It was such a shot that the tone of the entire video suddenly increased several levels. After watching the entire video with satisfaction, Shao Ji used the 4G network of his mobile phone to complete the upload of the video on the platform.

And their other force has already prepared all the strategies. As soon as the video was released, it was immediately pushed to the top of the hot search list.

Ethnic minorities, borders, poor people, food, gender imbalance, and the gap between rich and poor.

Such a buff-stacked video caused an uproar the first time it went online, and under the deliberate guidance of the navy, many people subconsciously began to think about the same question:

Is it wrong for a person to extend his mother's life through limited illegal means when the state cannot help him?

Do we really need to control food to this extent?

Food security was originally meant to ensure people's lives, but now, some people are dying because of it. Is this really our original intention?

These questions were not answered in this video, so someone began to manually @the relevant official forces, hoping to get them to respond.

However, no matter what kind of response it is, it is destined to be impossible to satisfy them.

Because this is just a catharsis of emotions.

Are emotions right or wrong?

No.

Since there is no right or wrong, how can we prove it?

Shao Ji sat cross-legged on the co-pilot, which had been laid flat, with one hand in front of him, watching with satisfaction the increasingly turbulent comments on the Internet, with an undisguised expression of comfort on his face.

Very good.

This mission, I completed it perfectly.

So, what kind of reward will your master give you?

She was looking forward to it.
