You were asked to be on a dating variety show, but all the guests failed?

Chapter 26 The one who earns a salary for everyone

Ruan Xuanmei is a village official who has graduated for one year.

She was born in the countryside and was admitted to a good university through her own efforts. After graduation, she became a selected student. Like many selected students who had just passed the civil service examination, Ruan Xuanmei was transferred to the grassroots level and returned to the countryside.

Other city students will have a lot of difficulty adapting when they first arrive in the countryside, but Ruan Chunmei is different. She was born and raised here, and except that this village is not her hometown, everything else is no different. Life in the countryside is pretty much the same.

It's just that it has been moved from the southern Sichuan province to the mountain villages under the jurisdiction of Jiangcheng. They can all eat spicy food, the people are all tough, and even the climate is similarly hot and humid.

Just after returning from helping the villagers deal with some matters outside, Ruan Chunmei heard what her colleagues in the office were discussing.

It was afternoon and it was drizzling outside. There were not many people in the office and not many things to do. Most of the village cadres were busy outside. Only a few young people who had just arrived this year were doing nothing and slacking off. If Ruan Chunmei had not come from the countryside and had not been interested in work, she probably would not have gone out.

"What are you guys talking about? Why are you all together? Is there some big news?"

She also moved closer and asked.

Although Ruan Chunmei came to the village a year earlier than these young people, they are of similar age after all. Compared with other middle-aged and elderly people in the office, she can get along well with them.

One of them saw her coming back and quickly raised his phone:
"Yes! Big news!"

"Today, there was a live variety show on Southern Sichuan TV called Let's Fall in Love, Big Stars. It's a dating variety show, and the guests are basically all celebrities. But just half a day into the show, a few guests encountered a drowning person while fishing by the river. It was a child, and one of the celebrities jumped into the river to rescue the child without saying a word."

"It seems that there was a flood upstream, and the child was washed over holding the wood. Hey, I checked the screen recording, and the man couldn't pry the wood off. It looked like he was frozen, but he was still breathing. If it had been any later, the child would probably have been lost!"

Ruan Xuanmei put down her briefcase and said casually:

"Then this celebrity is really brave and courageous. Every summer in our village, we use loudspeakers to publicize that wild swimming is not allowed. The class teachers in the school also warn them, but every year there are children drowning and there is no way to save them. There are also people who jump in to save others and end up drowning together."

"Hey, you haven't told me the result yet. Has the child been rescued?"

Another male colleague was quicker:
"They must have been rescued. If they hadn't been rescued, we wouldn't have just stood there and watched. After all, two lives were saved."

"But the current trend on the Internet is really weird..."

Ruan Xuanmei put her things away and looked back puzzledly:

"Why is it so strange? Isn't this just a normal social news? What's the trend?"

The male colleague handed her the phone and gestured for her to look at it herself.

"Look, this is a good deed done by a brave man. If it happened in our village, we would probably put up banners and send silk pennants. But now, because the celebrity has a bad reputation and there seems to be a lot of scandals about him, many people on the Internet are scolding him for putting on a show. Some people are also scolding him for setting a bad example. They say that if young people follow his example and casually go into the river to save people, who knows what will happen."

"When we were watching the show today, the comments were clearly all praising it, but when we looked at the trending searches, it was all cursing. It was really strange. Fortunately, I had uninstalled Weibo a long time ago, otherwise I would have no time to eat after seeing these filthy things every day. I would be so angry that I would be full of anger."

Ruan Chunmei frowned as she flipped through the posts in the entry.

Sure enough, the hot posts were all from big Vs calling on netizens not to learn this behavior and to provide rescue while ensuring their own safety.

There is nothing wrong with this statement. After all, ordinary people who have not received training have limited abilities. To save someone, they must first protect their own life and use other methods to rescue. But what is strange is that everyone in the comment section is scolding people.

A good person who bravely does something righteous, even if he is a little reckless, should not be treated like this, right?
When Ruan Xuanmei was in college, new media had just emerged. She wanted to return to her hometown to help farmers after graduation, so she chose the media major, hoping to use this new channel to help her hometown's agricultural products open up sales. Although she has not returned to her hometown, her major is suitable for her. After working in publicity for a year, she has not given back what she learned in school to her teachers.

So she saw it right away. "Someone is deliberately using trolls to smear him, not because of the online atmosphere."

She returned the phone to her colleague and asked with a serious expression:
"Do you think this celebrity named Han Fei looks familiar?"

Colleagues around him stopped talking and looked at each other.

After a moment's hesitation, someone asked:
"He's a celebrity. You've probably seen him on TV shows. It's normal to think he looks familiar... Sister Chunmei, aren't you studying this? Could it be that you've heard him used as an example in class?"

Ruan Xuanmei shook her head:

"Although I studied media, I don't chase celebrities and rarely watch variety shows. Media is not just about celebrities."

"I can confirm that I have met this Han Fei in real life, not online..."

Her words stopped abruptly.

half an hour.

Ruan Chunmei suddenly rushed to her desk, opened a folder on her computer, looked at it carefully for a while, and then let out a long breath.

She didn't say anything else to her colleagues, but took out her cell phone and made a call.

"Hello, village chief... yes, it's me, Chunmei."

"We just saw a piece of news. You can search on your phone. The key words are Han Fei saving people..."

"Did you see it? Yes, I just thought he looked familiar and I looked at him. After checking, I found that he was indeed the Mr. Han we knew."

"...No one knew he was a celebrity. I just found out today!"

"Now is not the time to discuss whether he is a celebrity or not, village chief. Didn't you see the comments under the news? He saved someone but was still scolded. And I am sure that these people are manipulated by someone behind the scenes, and someone deliberately threw dirty water on him."

"I just want to ask you one question, will you help me or not?"

"How? Don't worry about it. As long as you agree, I will find a way to help him once."

"You ask me why I care so much?"

"That's right! Mr. Han has helped so many children in our village. He really wants to do good things. He doesn't have the airs of a big star. He comes to the village every year to meet the children in person for several years in a row. Although I have only met him twice, I know he is a good person."

"Those who carry firewood for the public should not be allowed to die in the wind and snow."

"besides……"

Ruan Chunmei's voice was a little hoarse, and she paused before saying:
"I'm from southern Sichuan Province. The child he saved is from my hometown. I just saw the news. Floods in my hometown caused mudslides and washed away many people."

"I want to thank him for both emotional and personal reasons."
