Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable
Chapter 1313 - 1222: Shifting Lives 15
Online, netizens are also amazed by Shuangshuang and Xi Shuang’s micro-landscape creation.
"This is the off-topic duo, the director must be infuriated, asking you to introduce the scenery and you two spent the day playing with modeling clay. By the way, is this micro-landscape for sale? I’ll buy it."
"The young lady and my Shuang are really talented, those who say my Shuang lacks skills and only drags behind, aren’t they biting their tongues now?"
"Ahhh, these two are just too cute and truly talented. Honestly, I have a micro-landscape at home, and it’s nowhere as nice as this one. This fairy tale kingdom is too adorable."
"Previously, Xi Shuang asked the young lady if she could make a micro-landscape, and when she straightforwardly said no, I worried that being off-topic might get them scolded by the director."
But now, seeing the exquisite micro-landscape they’ve created, I can only say, well done on going off-topic."
Zhang Huijuan and the producer exchanged a glance, both chuckling. Zhang Huijuan hadn’t planned to blame Shuangshuang; she was used to Shuangshuang’s unique filming style.
No matter what Shuangshuang does, she has a peculiar charm that draws the audience’s emotions to her, letting her freely express herself instead is better.
Following the bamboo hut and village tour explanation and Shuangshuang and Xi Shuang’s off-topic task, the third task finally arrived for the group.
It’s heading out to sea, learning to cast nets and fish with the fishermen. But before casting, they need to learn how to weave and mend nets first.
The process of weaving nets isn’t simple. Skilled fishermen hang the net while weaving it, working swiftly and neatly.
Shuangshuang and the others, being novices, found it somewhat troublesome. Xi Shuang, the least patient, simply piled the weaving threads at his feet and pulled out a thread when needed.
This wasteful way of using weaving threads made the fishermen next to him feel heartache, almost wanting to step in and do the work themselves; they couldn’t stand such waste.
Shuangshuang and Su Jie, Wang Hanshao, Xie WenAn were the most focused, earnestly following the fishermen who taught them.
The skill of weaving isn’t too difficult; soon everyone grasped the technique decently and began weaving seriously.
No one dared not to be serious, knowing Zhang Huijuan’s usual approach, they suspected she’d definitely have them use their own woven nets to fish, and if they catch nothing, who knows what might happen.
Everyone did well weaving, except for Xi Shuang and Su Jinjiang, both inept. Su Jinjiang was passively slacking, while everyone else’s nets were a meter long, his was only two fingers long.
Xi Shuang was frustrated, incapable of doing anything comfortably with the thread, fiddling left and right, somehow ending up wrapping his feet and calves in the pile of threads.
Xi Shuang was oblivious to it, ran out of thread while weaving, carelessly pulling a thread from behind.
This resulted in the chaos nearby, his messy pull tangled up the threads beneath, tripping himself with the thread ball, and he fell solidly.
Everyone nearby was dumbfounded; never have they seen someone work like this. Seeing Xi Shuang’s feet tightly bound by threads, they couldn’t help but burst into laughter, making Xi Shuang blush furiously, thoroughly annoyed.
Seeing Xi Shuang angered, they suppressed their laughter, crowding around to rescue him, dismantling the threads, but Xi Shuang, dispirited, stopped working.
Su Jinjiang watched Xi Shuang walk away, contemplated briefly, then abandoned his work, following Xi Shuang with apparent intent to comfort him and gain favor.
Shuangshuang shrugged, pulling Su Jie to sit down: "I just figured out some tricks to speed up the weaving, the mesh is now even."
Xie WenAn nudged Wang Hanshao with his shoulder: "Your partner left, aren’t you going to bring her back?"
Wang Hanshao smiled warmly: "This place is very safe, she won’t be in any danger leaving, and she wasn’t really wronged either, nothing to worry about. I still have a lot left to weave."
Xie WenAn chuckled, turning back to weaving. He knew Wang Hanshao was somewhat tired of entertaining Su Jinjiang, tired of pretending to be a good guy in front of her. Besides, when people are apart, no one truly knows what they’re like.
But Su Jinjiang has been living closely with them for so long, her arrogant demeanor exposed, someone like her can’t hide her true nature despite any pretense.
Everyone in this era grows up cherished by their parents; who would want to circle around another person constantly, especially when they’re not your own?
Wang Hanshao treats Su Jinjiang well only because the cameras are watching, people are watching, not wanting to tear down his gentle, good-man image.
Xie WenAn glanced at Xi Shuang not far away, being gently comforted by Su Jinjiang but looking annoyed, sneered dismissively, disdainful of Su Jinjiang.
Though sucking up to the rich is common in this circle, clinging on to someone wealthy like this is just too unsightly.
Everyone took only three days to weave nets; of course, in such little time, they wove only small nets with big mesh eyes.
Weaving large nets takes too much time; they are here to film a show, not as real fishermen, there isn’t enough time to weave a large net.
Zhang Huijuan still let everyone use the small fishing nets they had woven, but thankfully didn’t crazily insist they catch fish for food with them, avoiding a collective hunger for the star guests.
Before formally filming the fishing, Zhang Huijuan thoughtfully allowed them a day to experience the feeling of net casting on a boat first, filming formally the next day.
Though the show is fully live-broadcast and transparent, meticulous editing later is crucial, so everyone’s filming state needs to be at its best.
Plus, for the audience, watching the show that already broadcasted live get edited into something even more exciting is a joy and an expectation.
Today the sea waves were surging with high crests, before the program took the star guests on board, they specially rented a large ship and had rescue personnel keeping watch on the sea to avoid accidents.
Shuangshuang and the others boarded a small fishing boat specifically used for near-shore net casting, which swayed when stepped on.
Today’s sea surface didn’t look calm, waves layer upon layer kept crashing, the small fishing boat tossed and turned with the waves, swaying heavily.
Standing upright on the tossing boat was challenging enough, not to mention casting nets. Shuangshuang stood at the bow, feet apart, holding onto the nearby swaying Su Jie carrying the fishing net.
