Chapter 892: Gantai Village

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Who knows if Mengqiao had noticed it, but this was between Mengqiao and

Yate.

In the blink of an eye, Friday arrived.

The production team set off for Gantai Village, where Hope Primary School was located, on Friday afternoon. According to the plan, they would arrive around 6 o’clock.

Female celebrities rarely ate at night. Even if they did, they would only eat some fat-reducing meals, such as vegetables, chicken breast, and vegetable soup.

However, the mothers-in-law of female celebrities did not have to be as strict with their figure management as female celebrities. They still had to eat dinner.

Therefore, they arrived early so that the guests could go to their residences to tidy up and adjust. They could eat dinner in time and rest early. They would also be in good condition for the next day’s filming.

Most importantly, the guests on this show were all big shots, so the production team did not dare to mistreat them.

The production team sent cars to pick up the guests.

The departure time of each guest was adjusted according to the location of the guests.

They wanted everyone to arrive at Gantai Village at about the same time.

Qiao Ni had just gotten married and was the first to arrive with her mother-in-law and manager.

Qiao Nits mother-in-law was also an actress. She was a well-known performing artist, Shen Qiuwei.

Now, she would occasionally play some minor roles in some dramas or tribute films, and she was very respected in the industry.

“The conditions in Gantai Village aren’t very good. Although we’ve tidied up the residences for the guests, we can only do our best to clean up the place based on the limited conditions there,” Assistant Director Dongshu followed Qiao Ni’s car and said to Qiao Ni and the others in the car. “The accommodation conditions may not even be comparable to ordinary hotels. Fortunately, you will only be staying for one night, so I hope you can endure it.”

The production team was really afraid that the guests would throw a tantrum

when they saw the accommodation conditions.

The accommodation was rather average.

Speaking of which, if the accommodation was good, there would be no need to build a Hope Primary School there.

Qiao Ni, Qiuwei, and their manager had expected that the conditions would be very average or even a little tough, so they all wore sportswear and casual clothes. It would be more convenient for them to move around, and their movements would be more agile.

Although Qiuwei was old, she maintained her elegant and slender figure, probably due to her self-awareness as an actress.

She was wearing sportswear and did not dye her hair. Her hair was naturally white and was short to her chin.

Upon hearing this, she chuckled and said to Dongshu, ‘When I was young, it was a lot harder to film. Actors in our era didn’t have high salaries, and the country didn’t have any good hotels. We were filming in the mountains, and filming in the countryside was really going to the village and living in the farmer’s house. Moreover, we would go to the countryside to perform for charity performances, and we went to many challenging places. I think that no matter how difficult the conditions are now, it should not be as difficult as our era. ”

“That’s true.” Dongshu nodded in agreement, thinking that Qiuwei was indeed a respectable old artist. Her awareness was indeed different.

Qiao Ni and Qiuwei arrived at Gantai Village first.

Before they arrived, they could already feel the backwardness of the village.

The road conditions along the way were not particularly good. They could drive, but the road was relatively narrow. There were many potholes on the road, and the driving was particularly bumpy.

There were many mountains on both sides. There were not many houses, but there were no shops.

After leaving the nearest town, they drove quite a distance. There were no more houses on both sides, not even a gas station.

When they saw the village, they could see the houses in the village from afar.

They were all small and squat, and there was not a single two-story building.

The roofs were visibly in disrepair. Although it was not without tiles to cover the roof, it did not look very sturdy.

When an outsider arrived, the village was filled with loud barking.

Qiuwei and Qiao Ni were mentally prepared. The place they came from would not be very good, but they did not expect it to be so backward.

Dongshu saw their surprised reaction and said, “When our production team came over for the first time, we were also very surprised. Moreover, according to the village chief, Qin Yang not only repaired the school, but also funded and sent people to repair the houses. However, because the climate here isn’t very good and the terrain doesn’t have any advantage, the houses that Qin Yang had built for them gradually couldn’t withstand the bad weather. However, the villagers were reluctant to part with Qin Yang’s foundation, so they have been repairing it all these years and persevered.”

“Originally, the director thought that she could use a portion of the revenue from the broadcast to repair the houses of the villagers, but she felt that it couldn’t always be like this. The last time, it was Qin Yang who fixed it. This time, if it’s the production team who fixes it, what about the next time? Would the villagers think that they don’t have to do anything, and someone would come over to help them fix it? Even if there is only the possibility of reaping something without sowing, it’s not desirable..”
