Pandora's Box

The other two were also taken aback when they heard the words, they still looked at me, but their eyes seemed to become more subtle, after a while, Gu Yin asked with a smile: "Really?"

"Hahaha, yes, the ecological environment in Zichao's hometown is really good," I made a flying posture, "I still want to live there for a while, cultivate my body and mind, and embrace nature."

Gu Yin laughed and said: "Ah, yes, T city is faster paced and tiring. When I have a vacation, I also want to find a paradise to relax. Rest is for walking a longer distance."

"Um……"

"After the rest is over, you can come back anytime you want. GLX is always open to you."

My touch was genuine: "Thank you, brother!"

How could I have any virtue? How could I meet Bole who is as patient and sincere as Gu Yin?

Yuan Keke knew my plan, and expressed surprise: "You really don't want to stay in T city?"

"Well, it doesn't make sense for me to stay."

After a while, she asked, "Could it be that you fell out with Zhuo Wenyang?"

I replied: "Almost."

"It almost means..."

"I fell out with his whole family."

"..." Yuan Keke sent a screen of ellipses, "Really? Did Cheng Yichen even fall out?"

"Correct."

I saw that "the other party is typing" was always displayed on the chat software, and Yuan Keke was probably shocked to the point of being incoherent.

After typing for a long time, her message came.

"Is it so long that it can't be repaired?"

I hesitated: "Yes."

I don't know if they let it go, I don't even know if I let it go.

When holding the idea of ​​staying away from the past and never seeing each other again, it is indeed much easier to forget.

And if one day I need to face it again, then I have to ask myself: Is it really over?Are we even?

Has the resentment I held at that time dissipated?Has the damage I suffered been repaired?

I don't know the formula for this.

I can't calculate the result.

"Okay." She didn't delve into the topic in a reasonable way, and just asked, "I heard from my cousin that you are going to my hometown again, haven't you enjoyed enough of the negative ions there? I thought you were tired of staying for so long. "

It is true that the place itself cannot keep young people for long.It is not enough for life to be composed of beautiful mountains and rivers, there is only a thin line between comfort and boredom.

"Want to come to my place to have fun? Get a tourist visa and stay for a few months. A change of environment is also good for your mood. You can live with Wei Yuantao, his house is huge, and he keeps telling me about his Living alone is scary."

"..." I can already imagine Wei Yuantao's face.

"No. It's better for me to stay in your hometown." At least I don't have to be a bright light bulb.

Yuan Keke replied with a slap in the face: "To be honest, what are you planning? Is there anything in our town that has you so fascinated?"

"What can I draw? Free-range chickens and ducks raised on the mountain? That tastes really good."

"Zichao told me that you are here to accompany my cousin?"

"Oh..." That's part of the reason.

I said: "I think Zhao Ziyue may be a little lonely these days. After all, Zichao left, he is already very lonely. If I follow him in a short time, he probably won't be able to adapt for a while."

Yuan Keke said: "You are quite considerate."

"That is."

"Then why didn't you think of being considerate to me when you disappeared without saying a word?"

Seeing that she was going to scold me again, I quickly said, "Fortunately, Brother Tao is caring for me, hehe."

Yuan Keke didn't speak anymore, and just made a whole row of slapping expressions.I don't know if it was me or Wei Yuantao who hit me.

I couldn't help feeling sorry for Wei Yuantao.I don't know what kind of servile life the proud Tao brother lived in front of her.

I'm back in town.Uncle Zhao and Aunt Zhao all showed their joy directly or implicitly. After all, I have been here for a long time, and they treat me very differently from mere guests.

The room I lived in for half a year. When I left, I obviously checked out and took all my belongings with me in my bag. However, even though summer vacation is the peak tourist season and there are rarely more guests, they still vacate it for me. Reserved, not open to other residents.

This is the warmth they have given me, and I am grateful.

I don't know if there is anyone else in this world who will wait for me silently like them.

Life in the town seems to be going on as usual.The leisure of green fields and green mountains, the ease of playing with cats and dogs, the comfort of reading a book and tea.

But I couldn't calm down like before.

I don't know exactly why, but I vaguely know why.

From the moment I set foot on T City again, there was a turmoil in my heart, and it could never calm down.

I'm really, really useless.

Zhao Ziyue is very busy these days, sometimes he sleeps in the township office for several days, and sometimes he comes back very late, so he can only sit downstairs and eat cold food alone.

Today he asked me: "Are you free recently?"

I wondered: "Why do you ask such a question, I am free every day." I am the biggest idler in the whole town.

"It's like this," he seemed to be thinking about his words, "If you have time, can you consider helping out in our office? There is no establishment, the kind with salary. Of course the salary is not high, and it doesn't really benefit you .”

"Huh?" I was surprised, "How can I help?"

"You also know that the high-speed rail will be opened here at the end of the year. Everyone really wants to take the opportunity to develop the tourism industry in the town. They have done a lot of publicity work and posted some videos on self-media platforms, but the effect is not good. It’s too ideal. We discussed it, and after all, there are too few young people in the cadres, the age group is too old, and the aesthetics are not up to date.”

"The township government really needs fresh blood, but this problem won't be solved for a while," he said with a smile. "I thought about it later, isn't there a ready-made student with T major?"

This "high-achieving student" almost sprayed a sip of tea on his face.

"I think if you come to help run the self-media account, the effect should be much better. Otherwise, Sister Wang always thinks that she can't do well, and worries every day. I think she is under a lot of psychological pressure."

I wiped my mouth: "If you don't dislike it, of course you can."

I don't dare to take other jobs, but I should still try to manage the platform account, after all, I used to be a waist anchor.

Zhao Ziyue seemed a little surprised by my straightforwardness, and immediately smiled: "That's great, we need talents like you very much!"

"..."

It's too heavy a word to apply to me.

Ben "talent" followed to the office, where he received a simple and sincere welcome, and also harvested two apples and a pack of hot milk.

Everyone help me clean up a table.As a temporary worker, I haven't been able to own my own computer yet, but the computer configuration here may not be as smooth as my own mobile phone operation.

So I, a vagrant who has been unemployed for more than half a year, finally started to serve the people.

I took over the official account, and there was no pressure because I didn't have many fans.As for the release of content, it is also left to me to play freely without restriction. Zhao Ziyue just asks me not to talk nonsense.

Because I have no experience and no plan, my first test was to take some landscape videos I took out of novelty when I first came to town, make simple edits according to the current popular style, and then apply Internet celebrity filters. It is accompanied by Internet celebrity BGM and put it up.

After posting, there was no movement. I waited patiently for a long time before I finally got the first comment, which was just passing by.

In the afternoon, the number of views and comments increased, but it was still very bleak.Although I was mentally prepared, I still felt that my face was dull.

Sister Wang who came over to check the results said, "Hey, this one has so many likes? There are also comments! Very good, very good!"

"..."

If it weren't for Sister Wang's enthusiasm and sincerity from head to toe, and she gave me a pack of milk in the morning, I would have suspected that she was trying to blame me.

"Sure enough, young people are amazing, and what they post is for someone to read!"

"..."

Is this what it feels like to be praised for getting a five out of a perfect score?

Uncertainly, I said, "Then, shall I do more?"

"Okay, okay, oh, this really depends on you!"

Turning around and seeing Zhao Ziyue coming in, Sister Wang praised me again, and finally said: "With Xiao Lin, I can feel at ease now!"

Zhao Ziyue smiled and said, "Is that so? I said that Lin Jing can do it."

"..."

outrageous.

Although I only scored five points in the test, I couldn't help but be full of fighting spirit because of such absurd affirmation, and I felt that I must cheer for the sixty points test.

"Okay! Let's see mine next!"

To be honest, I'm just a layman.Copywriting, editing, retouching, none of which I am good at.

The only source of confidence is that Zhuo Wenyang gave me some pointers when he drained my game live broadcast back then; plus, as a heavy user of the Internet, I have been playing platforms such as X Fish X Audio X Bo X for a long time. Don't talk about insiders, at least I understand a little bit.

But now, I feel like I'm sorry for Zhao Ziyue's expectations.

After studying the relevant software tutorials, I simply ordered a laptop computer, bought professional software for the computer, and then started to produce like a donkey in a production team.

My tenet is that if the quality is not enough, the quantity can make up.

In the past six months, I have actually stored a lot of material in my mobile phone.Because I was too leisurely before, besides reading books, I had a lot of time and interest to wander around, patting here and there as a pastime to pass the day.

The natural ecology in the mountains is really good. From time to time, there are some amazing scenery, and taking pictures of flowers and plants, cats and dogs every day is also part of the fun of ordinary life.

Now these inadvertently left images have a place to use.

The amazing thing is that when I was editing pictures late at night, editing copywriting, and editing videos, the sentences in the books that Cheng Yichen recommended to me, and the melodies of the songs that Cheng Yichen recommended to me, all inexplicably flooded into my memory like a tide .

I no longer use those Internet celebrity BGMs, but think about more suitable soundtracks, better rhythms, more professional mirroring, and smoother expressions.

After my random tossing, the things I made have distinct personal characteristics. The number of fans of different platform accounts, the number of comments and views of videos have also increased visibly to the naked eye.

Although in my opinion, this is at most another [-] or [-] points in the test, and the improvement is obviously mainly due to the low starting point, but everyone unanimously expressed their high affirmation and praise for me.

"Immediately!"

"So much has been done in such a short amount of time."

"Young people are different!"

"After all, he is a top student of T University."

"..."

This data is insignificant at all, they are too easily satisfied.

I felt a little guilty, and thought maybe I could do more for them.

When I was recording video material this day, I accidentally photographed Zhao Ziyue walking in front of me.

Because I thought the smile on his back was very nice, so I also cut this paragraph into it.

Unexpectedly, the response to this video was unprecedentedly good, because of Zhao Ziyue's less than 1-minute shot.

"Who is this little brother?"

"It's so handsome, is it the model you invited?"

"Impossible, the editor cries poor every day, they don't have the budget to hire a model."

"After all, it is the poorest official blog."

I replied: "We absolutely don't have any money to hire a model. As for this free photo shoot, it's our deputy mayor."

"??? So young?"

"It's so handsome!"

"So cute, so cute, so cute!"

"Brother, you are really introducing the scenery of Z town every day. This is the most beautiful scenery in your Z town, okay?"

"I suddenly had the urge to travel."

"Can we meet by chance?"

"..."

I immediately went to ask Zhao Ziyue: "If you have time, would you like to help me?"

Zhao Ziyue was stunned: "Me?"

I quickly planned a new series, euphemistically titled "The deputy mayor will show you Z town in person", but in fact, I used Zhao Ziyue as an assistant and tool man, and started to drag him around the town.

Now I seem to have finally found the right direction.Compared with me talking to myself and simply recording the scenery, having another person interacting with me in front of the camera will naturally appear more vivid and interesting.

Zhao Ziyue personally didn't enjoy being on camera very much.He lacks the desire to show off, doesn't like the limelight, and doesn't have much time.But for the sake of work, he still cooperates with all my requests professionally.

At the beginning, he just read the finished manuscript honestly. After taking a few notes, he gradually let go and no longer needed the manuscript.

After all, for him, what lines do he need to memorize to introduce this place where he has lived for many years and is reluctant to leave in the end?

All love and praise come from the bottom of his heart. He speaks clearly to the camera, narrates fluently, and responds quickly. In the ordinary streets and alleys of Z Town, in his smile, in his eloquent talk, and in his countless treasures, his own light bloomed.

The number of fans and the amount of interaction on the account finally became decent.

Although many people who eat melons came for Zhao Ziyue's beauty at first, the comments in the comment area were surprisingly honest.

Probably because of the nature of the official blog, Zhao Ziyue's identity, and his serious and inviolable temperament, the crowd who watched the excitement salivated, but no one spoke rudely. Everyone obediently maintained a civilized, harmonious and polite manner. atmosphere.

On the contrary, many people like to tease me. Zhao Ziyue is the only one in front of the camera, but they often cue me in the comments.

"It's the familiar link of panting like a cow again."

"Laugh to death."

"It's time for the photographer to exercise. I'm out of breath after climbing a mountain."

"You don't understand, the sound of panting is the photographer's body."

"I only heard his breathing, but I couldn't see his person."

"Look at the physical fitness of our deputy mayor, he can carry so many things and walk such a long distance without being out of breath."

"When will the photographer show his face, let us see how fake you really are."

"..."

When the part where the traditional food in the town is introduced, the barrage will start "hahahaha"

"I heard the photographer's saliva again..."

"I can't eat it, hey, it's really annoying!"

"How delicious is this, it makes the photographer greedy."

"It does look delicious."

"Give the poor photographer and editor a bite!"

This is not a live broadcast, but a cut video. Naturally, Zhao Ziyue can’t travel through time and space to hear everyone’s soul calls, but the next second in the camera, Zhao Ziyue really smiled and asked me: “You want to eat too?” He stretched out his chopsticks and kindly fed me who was hungry and held up the camera.

The barrage began to flash: "Ahhhhhhhhhh..."

"I admire it!"

"Who wouldn't want to eat this!"

This video introducing homemade bacon from the farmhouse in the town set a record for the highest number of video views since I took over, and the number of fans doubled again.

I thought about it, it seems that everyone likes to eat it, and I should introduce more food in the future!

The popularity of the account suddenly ushered in a wave of explosion, which happened overnight.

When I woke up in the morning, I habitually clicked on the software to check the messages. When I found that the platform had too many message reminders for me to read, I was completely stunned.

"What's the situation, is this?"

Clicking on the comment area, I found that many old fans are as confused as I am.

"Why did it suddenly catch fire?"

"Where are there so many people?"

"Is there a sightseeing group from heaven?"

Then I figured out that the video was reposted by several video accounts and Weibo big Vs with huge fans.

"What's going on, does our poor editor finally have money to buy promotion?"

"impossible!"

"That's so expensive, I don't believe the editor can have this budget."

"As long as you have that money, you should buy a professional camera."

There is absolutely no way this is a promotion we bought.

If I use the money Cheng Yichen left me, it's not that I don't have money for marketing.It’s just that Zhao Ziyue will never let me pay for it out of my own pocket, and secondly, for me, the popularity I bought is not a KPI created by my own efforts, it is equivalent to cheating on the exam, and there is no need for it.

Thinking about me, a scumbag who looked around every time I took an exam in middle school, and now I can't help but be a little funny when I say that I don't want to cheat.Sometimes in life, ghosts can really turn into people.

Flipping through the influx of new messages, looking at the very natural and inciting words of praise in the forwarding, I suddenly realized that this scene seemed familiar.

When I first started live broadcasting, I also experienced such an overnight success.

"..."

Is it Zhuo Wenyang?

I jumped out of bed, my heart beating wildly in my chest.

how is this possible.

How would he know that the account under the skin is me?Even if he knew it was me, why would he do this?

I started to panic like an old dog.
