"Village chief, isn't it time to harvest rice in a few days? We initially thought about doing it ourselves, but today we went to the threshing floor and asked. The boss probably thought we were young and outsiders, so he charged a higher price. It’s also high, and the machines aren’t that good.”
Gu Yi immediately started to complain.
Sometimes, complaining is also a better method.
But you must pay attention to technique when doing this.
You can neither offend the other party nor appear too petty.
So Gu Yi put himself in a relatively weak position.
"Is there still such a thing? I went to tell him that you are here to help us, but you still charge more money. This is too outrageous. Someone has told me before that he charges money indiscriminately, not only for rent The machines are expensive and old. Even if the millet is sent there, the final millet will either be small or not clean, but there is only such a threshing floor in the village. We have also said that it will be better after all, but after a while, it will be better. If it becomes like this, you know that things in the village are sometimes difficult to do, but if you want to thresh grain, I can go and help you with threshing at the normal price."
The village chief also attaches great importance to the program crew filming here.
This is free publicity without any money.
Now that the show has been airing for several months, many people already know about Blackwater Village.
"Village Chief, that's not necessary. In fact, it's normal for him to think so. After all, we are indeed outsiders. Although his words were a bit unpleasant at the time, his impatience is inevitable. However, we now have new ideas. Since we have The purpose of filming the program in our Heishui Village is to promote the development of local agriculture, promote farming culture, and let everyone realize that it is not easy for farmers to farm, so I think we can do it in a better way."
"what way?"
The village chief didn't say much because Gu Yi and the others represented the program team to a certain extent.
"At that time, our things will definitely be sold through e-commerce, but our 100 acres of land will end up being about 70,000 to 80,000 kilograms of rice, so I thought I could help everyone sell it. After we leave, our village can also adopt this model in the future, at least the price can go up a bit."
"So, I just want to ask the village chief if you know this kind of company in the grain industry, borrow their factory, and then make our own Heishui Village brand. Of course, this is only the first step... You can set up your own company in the future..."
Gu Yi talked a lot to the other party like this.
And he also told the other party that this kind of thing should be done in advance, because the processing of rice, the production of packaging and some quality inspections take time.
The village chief was very moved after hearing this.
He immediately said he could ask.
The next day the village chief went directly to where they lived and said that he had asked around yesterday.
Two companies can come today.
He wanted to invite Gu Yi to come over and have a chat with him.
In the afternoon, Gu Yi came to the village group and met these two families.
After chatting with each other, I found that the second company was pretty good, with acceptable qualifications, complete certificates and licenses, and no business risks. Overall, it was operating more steadily, but now they also want to go into e-commerce.
"Then we will need you to be responsible for everything from harvesting to threshing, to subsequent deep processing, packaging, etc."
"no problem."
"In addition, we may need to do some extra work here, because we are filming a show, and we can't let you do everything. Then we won't have to film, so we want a harvester, and we can pay for it. But you also have to give some discounts, so others can buy big deals."
After that, the village chief began to negotiate the price with them.
But when they were discussing the price, Gu Yi left.
It is better not to listen to this.
Anyway, the price here will definitely be discounted by then.
As for the villagers, the village chief must try to keep the price as low as possible. After all, if the cost is higher than the villagers themselves, many people will still choose to work harder on their own.
Then the village chief's work was in vain.
Finally, after everything was settled, Gu Yicai called Ding Liang.
"Director, you may need to sign a contract at that time...either no, you will cooperate with us to sell the crops, and help the villagers sell them by the way."
Ding Liang: "Huh?"
Ding Liang: "Did the guest on the program issue a task to the program team?"
Gu Yi turned on the speakerphone at the moment.
The cameramen on the side couldn't stop laughing.
At the same time, I was thinking: "This material is amazing!"
Gu Yi smiled: "Didn't you just let us do whatever we wanted? Director, I will send you a copy of the plan later."
"Fine."
The program schedule so far has far exceeded Ding Liang's expectations.
But that's the effect he wanted.
Nowadays, all the variety shows on the Internet are scripted. It’s quite interesting to see one like this occasionally, isn’t it?
...
Time passes day by day.
Ding Liang finally signed a tripartite agreement with the village collective and the agency.
Some crops and vegetables are already ripe.
They also went to Hangzhou to shoot for this purpose.
The vegetables are sold in the vegetable market, and the flowers are sold on the streets. While selling flowers, they also provide photo services.
But Gu Yi didn't go that day.
He stayed at home to look after the house.
I went through the questions and made the final sprint. I just kept going, and Zhou Chen came.
Zhou Chen and Gu Yi will take the college entrance examination this year.
So, the two of them reviewed together.
But Ning Xiu called just before noon.
"Gu Yi, a good thing or a bad thing, which one do you want to hear first?"
Gu Yi: "Let's do the bad things first."
Ning Xiu: "Well, the bad thing is that Lu Dekai is still hacking you, and Yue Yong also bought him a lot of popularity."
Gu Yi: "That's it. What about the good things?"
"The good thing is that someone wants to buy the copyright of Your Loyalty to the Country, a historical drama, so after you finish filming the show and come back, we will sign a new contract extension, and then you will record the song again, and then others will come. Sing, your name has to be on it too.”
"That's good. Why don't you slap that Lu Dekai in the face when you turn around?"
"That is to say, so Lu Dekai, you don't have to worry about it, the company will handle it for you, but your new songs will be soon, right? They will be released simultaneously on the platform for you, and by the way, all your songs will also be posted."
"Okay." Gu Yi had no objection to this.
As long as the company doesn't mess up, everyone will be happy to work together.
But if the company tries to trick him, then Gu Yi has many ways to do it. After getting through the system, he knows how to solve the contracts of those cheating companies. At worst, he will take the radio and television exam in the future. Gu Yi is too good at taking this exam. Got experience.
In the end, what should be yours must finally be yours.
After talking about these two things, Ning Xiu asked: "How are you doing there? The college entrance examination is coming soon. Are you ready?"
"No problem, Mr. Ning, everything is ready on my side, but speaking of this matter... I have a grudging request. Can you lend me some money then? I need to spend the money to take the college entrance examination. Money, in addition, I have to go to Jingzhou for the art exam later, and I also have to pay for travel and living expenses, and I have to buy clothes, food, drink and other things. After all, you know that I am in the company, I have no salary, and I still owe the company several million... ..”
