Chapter 396 An Outrageously Awesome College Student (4K)

It's been a while since I last visited Taixiang. It's changed a lot. Two huge parking lots have been cleared from the wilderness for tourists to park for free.

Another hotel is under construction, and villagers are hanging "accommodation" signs at the entrances of their self-built houses, selling empty rooms as hotels.

In addition, there are many more street vendors, small shops, and various specialty snacks from the province of Trung Son.

Today, a large number of police officers came to Taiwan because four celebrity mentors were coming, so it was necessary to strengthen order and security.

In order to combat crime, Niushou City has made great efforts, and robbery and theft are considered must-solve cases, belonging to the top priority.

This has significantly improved public security within the city's jurisdiction. Before this, when "Village BA" became popular, there were many pickpockets.

But now, few people dare to come here to commit crimes against the wind.

The police officers were responsible for maintaining order, while the celebrities led the trainees to record the show and tried various local snacks along the street.

Zeng Wenjie couldn't help but secretly complain, thinking that they might as well rename this episode of "The Voice of China" to "A Bite of Chongqing Province"!
The snacks in Trong Son province are quite good, characterized by their aroma, spiciness, crispness, and sourness, which can satisfy the tastes of all kinds of people.

Zeng Wenjie suddenly saw a beautiful woman with a very prominent bust emerge from the crowd of onlookers on the small hill. It was Senior Sister Da Yuan, who was waving frantically.

Zeng Wenjie smiled at her in the distance, then put on his sunglasses and leisurely followed the production crew as they filmed.

He stayed in the back, but the director seemed to want to give him more screen time. A cameraman kept following him and filming, so he couldn't even hide away to have a smoke.

Although people don't follow celebrities as much these days, these four big stars still have a large fan base, so there are a lot of onlookers.

Fortunately, there were police officers maintaining order; otherwise, it would have been completely packed, let alone any filming.

“Boss, I saw you, but I don’t know if you saw me!” Yuan Xiuqin sent a text message to Zeng Wenjie.

“I saw you waving at me!” Zeng Wenjie replied.

Yuan Xiuqin was immediately delighted; it was good to see!

After a long walk, the arduous filming was finally completed. Zeng Wenjie breathed a sigh of relief and took out his cigarette case to smoke.

The program crew was led to the courtyard of the township government.

Several vehicles from the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television were parked at the entrance, and many reporters from the Administration were waiting for the program crew to arrive in the courtyard.

As soon as the production crew arrived, they immediately began the interviews.

Zeng Wenjie went straight to a corner to smoke. He was wearing sunglasses and saw several interns running around, sweating profusely and panting heavily despite the cold weather.

A girl who looked like a host was standing in front of the camera, wearing black stockings and a uniform. She was about 1.7 meters tall, with short, fluffy black hair, a very sweet smile, and a particularly pleasant broadcasting voice.

Zeng Wenjie smoked in the corner, watching the lively scene unfold. He was filled with emotion, finding it hard to believe that he was the one who brought all of this together!
Although "Village BA" will become very popular in ten or twenty years, it is still gratifying for Zeng Wenjie, a native of Chongshan, to be able to emerge out of nowhere and drive the tourism development of the entire province!
"Hmm? Those legs look so familiar."

With his sharp eyes, Zeng Wenjie, who was hiding while smoking, spotted a pair of familiar beautiful legs. He looked up and, sure enough, it was Qin Yixuan.

Senior student Xiao Qin was also dressed in a professional outfit, with wispy bangs and a high ponytail, bustling around doing chores.

After finishing a segment of the recording, the short-haired female host breathed a sigh of relief, then smelled a whiff of smoke coming from nearby. Turning her head, she saw Zeng Wenjie squatting there, puffing away on a cigarette.

She was a little affected, frowned, and said, "Sir, please don't smoke here. It's affecting our recording."

Zeng Wenjie had just finished smoking and begged for mercy, "Sorry, I didn't mean to, I'll stop now."

The short-haired female host nodded in satisfaction and asked, "You're a trainee too, right? Why aren't you giving an interview?"

Zeng Wenjie said, "I'm tired, I want to rest for a while."

The short-haired female host glanced at him and thought he was quite interesting. He was hiding and smoking, and he wouldn't go for an interview. The other trainees were all hoping to get more screen time!

Qin Yixuan actually paid more attention to the short-haired female host because she had only been with the company for a short time but had risen very quickly. She was very capable and often received praise from her superiors.

She glanced over and saw Zeng Wenjie talking to Yan Xinyi, and was taken aback.

Having just finished his work, he grabbed two bottles of water and came up, smiling, "Wenjie, long time no see, have some water?"

She handed Zeng Wenjie a bottle of mineral water as if there had never been any disagreement between them, as if it were all very natural.

Zeng Wenjie smelled the familiar aroma of tea again.

He reached out and took it, saying, "Thank you, Senior Sister Qin."

Yan Xinyi was taken aback for a moment, then took the water bottle from Qin Yixuan and asked, "Little Qin, you two know each other?"

Qin Yixuan said, "He is Zeng Wenjie, from Teacher Xie's team, and the planner of 'The Voice of China'."

Yan Xinyi suddenly realized why he seemed familiar, and why he didn't seem to care much about showing his face!

So, he couldn't help but take a look at Zeng Wenjie and felt that he wasn't as amazing as the rumors suggested. Moreover, he was the youngest of the province's top ten outstanding youths in history.

Anyway, she felt a little disappointed.

"Wenjie, this is my senior colleague at work, Yan Xinyi, a top student who graduated from Peking University," Qin Yixuan introduced.

"It's a pleasure to meet you!" Zeng Wenjie said, clasping his hands in a fist and palm salute.

Yan Xinyi simply nodded slightly and said, "You two catch up, I'll go get busy!"

Although she was initially curious about Zeng Wenjie, the fact that he was squatting in a corner smoking, which didn't match her expectations, somewhat ruined her impression of him.

Moreover, for someone like her who has established herself in the State Administration of Radio and Television and risen to the level of a host, the planner of a music variety show is not really a big shot.

Qin Yixuan smiled at Zeng Wenjie and said, "I didn't expect to run into you here. It's so nice and pleasant!"

Zeng Wenjie said, "Yes."

Although she sensed Zeng Wenjie's coldness, Qin Yixuan seemed oblivious, and simply asked with concern, "Recording the show must be tiring, right?"

Zeng Wenjie shook his head and didn't say anything.

Qin Yixuan wanted to say something more, but just then a leader called her, so she could only say "See you later" and then ran back to get busy.

Zeng Wenjie sniffed and felt that it was still the familiar tea aroma, but the level seemed to be a little higher than before!
It seems that after going to Yanjing and joining the General Administration, Senior Sister Qin has made some progress, hasn't she?
The State Administration of Radio and Television is still conducting interviews with the "The Voice of China" program team, but most of the topics revolve around "village BAs" (a term referring to female celebrities from rural areas who are considered "village BAs"). Their main purpose for this trip is to broadcast news related to this issue.

Yan Xinyi, who held a relatively high position among the group, was already interviewing the person in the executive jacket with a microphone. Zeng Wenjie saw Zhuang Aimin, which surprised him.

Indeed, the State Administration of Radio and Television is a central media outlet after all, with unprecedented influence. As the behind-the-scenes promoter of "Village BA", how could Zhuang Aimin not show his face?
Holding a microphone, Yan Xinyi smiled sweetly and asked Zhuang Aimin several key questions.

Zhuang Aimin remained calm and steady, answering the questions one by one in an orderly manner.

Zeng Wenjie walked slowly past and waved to Zhuang Aimin.

When Zhuang Aimin saw it was him, he smiled and nodded in response.

Yan Xinyi was stunned!
Was Mr. Zhuang greeting Zeng Wenjie?!

Qin Yixuan, who had been following Zeng Wenjie's story, also witnessed this scene and was deeply moved.

Although she had joined the General Administration and met many important figures, someone of Zhuang Aimin's caliber was still beyond her reach...

"Xiao Zeng, come here." Zhuang Aimin beckoned to Zeng Wenjie and said with a smile.

Yan Xinyi was secretly surprised and astonished, unable to understand why Zhuang Aimin had brought Zeng Wenjie in front of the camera.

This scene was also witnessed by the contestants of "The Voice of China," who all craned their necks to look over, filled with envy.

Yi Jiacheng gasped repeatedly, thankful he hadn't gone too far with Zeng Wenjie, otherwise he might have really suffered the consequences; the other party's connections were terrifying!

Zhuang Aimin pulled Zeng Wenjie in front of the camera, then introduced him to Yan Xinyi with a smile: "Actually, the person who really came up with the concept of 'Village BA' is my junior, Zeng Wenjie. He is still a freshman at Fengcheng College!"

Yan Xinyi opened her mouth, but the usually quick-witted girl was momentarily stunned and speechless.

Because of her slightly higher position within the General Administration, she had access to more information and insider details.

She was also well aware of how much attention and importance the higher authorities paid to "Village BA," and how highly they had always praised the person who created "Village BA."

Zeng Wenjie was taken aback by Zhuang Aimin's words, then smiled. He knew very well that his senior was paving the way for him to get into the top ten in the country!

"So, Zeng Wenjie, how did you come up with this idea?!" Yan Xinyi suppressed her discomfort and handed over the microphone to ask.

"Because I'm originally from Chongshan, I'm quite familiar with the situation here. Moreover, the Taixiang area has a long-standing basketball culture. Currently, the 'Little Giant' has entered the NBA, sparking widespread public interest in basketball..."

Facing the camera, Zeng Wenjie remained calm and methodically began to recount the situation.

Some of the lines were even prepared in advance for him by Feng Xiao, a top-notch ghostwriter.

The more Yan Xinyi listened, the more alarmed she became. This young man, who was at least five years younger than her, was no ordinary person, or rather, he was incredibly powerful!
Because his rhetoric was so impressive, showcasing a broad perspective and an image of wholeheartedly seeking a way out for his economically underdeveloped hometown. He was humble and pragmatic, which earned him a great deal of goodwill.

Zhuang Aimin smiled from the side, even going so far as to act as Zeng Wenjie's straight man, guiding Yan Xinyi through a few interview questions.

Zeng Wenjie answered fluently and eloquently. At this moment, Feng Xiao had pulled him onto the shoulders of the giant father, and every word he uttered demonstrated his style and vision.

Helping one's hometown develop is a point that is likely to win favor with others.

For example, Brother Lu Goose frantically fed Speed, making him look like a clown throughout the process. However, he eventually gained recognition and love from netizens and boosted the economy of his hometown.

Zeng Wenjie has a deep working relationship with government departments, so it goes without saying that the government is strongly supporting him.

After the interview, Zhuang Aimin smiled at Zeng Wenjie and said, "Last time, the State Administration said they wanted to do an exclusive interview with you, but I asked Jianguo to turn it down for you. Let's contact them again later and arrange the interview!"

Zeng Wenjie said, "Thank you, senior brother. I will follow your arrangements."

Yan Xinyi felt that even Zhuang Aimin's dignified and serious demeanor was somewhat irritating to her eyes at this moment, especially his kindness towards Zeng Wenjie!

Then, she saw the team leader also come over and chat with Zeng Wenjie.

Did we just miss a good opportunity?

Yan Xinyi thought to herself that this was the first time she realized she had misjudged someone.

If we can get along well with Zeng Wenjie...

So, is it possible to secure this exclusive interview?
The freshman in front of her was a rising star, and she even had a strong premonition—

This person will be recommended by the Chongshan Provincial Government as a shining example for Chongshan!
Although Chongshan is economically backward, has underdeveloped infrastructure, and a low profile, it is still a province in the vast country of China! To be the face of a province—that's quite an achievement!

Qin Yixuan was also someone who knew how to seize opportunities. He found a chance to come closer and asked, "Wenjie, will you be attending the gathering later?"

Zeng Wenjie thought for a moment and said, "Senior Sister Yuan told me that I would contact her again after I finished my work. If I have time, I'll come over for a meal."

The leaders couldn't help but glance at Qin Yixuan.

Qin Yixuan achieved his goal.

But at the same time, the way she looked at Zeng Wenjie's back was like an ant seeing the blue sky.

She was well aware of the prestige of "Village BA" and that "The Voice of China" was indeed very powerful and the most popular program on Chongqing TV. However, she understood that the launch of this program was merely paving the way for "Village BA".

The show can only bring in viewership, while "Village BA" can bring in tourists and drive the development of the backward economy!
Although she was just an intern, she already had one foot in the system.

So now, the person who regrets it the most is her. If only she hadn't been so arrogant back then, she almost had a falling out with Zeng Wenjie!

Someone sent her a kind "Have a safe trip," and she actually replied with something like "I'm taking a plane." Thinking about it now, I really wish I could go back in time and tear that stupid version of myself apart!

“They’re doing their work here. Junior, come with me into the office. We need to have a meeting with the relevant leaders.”

Zhuang Aimin patted Zeng Wenjie on the shoulder, pulled him out of the crowd, and said with a smile.

"I was just offering a small suggestion; how could I dare to suggest holding a meeting for them?"

Zeng Wenjie quickly became modest and acted like a grandson.

Zhuang Aimin laughed and said, "Come on, there are some things that I can't do without you! Come on, let's go to the meeting."

The soul-stirring feeling swept through the entire audience once again...

Zeng Wenjie, you're calling a meeting with the leaders?!
