This celebrity is absolutely wicked.

Chapter 186 Director Lu, you're truly outstanding!
Outside the conference room, Shen Qingyi pondered for a while: "I think this exam format can also be incorporated into Chang'an Entertainment's evaluation of its artists."

Lu Ran: "I suggest preparing several types of test questions, and the questions should be updated in real time according to the situation in the entertainment industry to ensure that the questions keep up with current events."

Shen Qingyi's eyes lit up: "What you said reminds me of something. If a celebrity in the entertainment industry has a scandal, we can call all the artists together to study the case, learn from it, and remind everyone to always remember not to make the same mistake."

Lu Ran exclaimed in surprise, "Qingyi, how could you think of this? Why don't you become the boss?"

Shen Qingyi was a little embarrassed by the praise and smiled, saying, "It just suddenly came to mind."

Lu Ran went to Shen Qingyi's office again and watched the promotional video that the agricultural trainees had filmed.

This promotional video is for the show "The Earth Trainees", and it uses the song "The Story of Time".

Lu Ran watched the promotional video; it was pretty good.

Finally, the agricultural trainees made a ten-year promise to the audience.

We agreed to look back ten years from now.

This also aligns with the planned activities for the next ten years.

After the topic of "ten years in a flash" gained traction, there will definitely be a continuous stream of netizens posting comparison photos under this topic.

If the hand-shaking motion still exists ten years from now, this comparison between before and after ten years in "The Earth Trainees" will be even more meaningful.

Netizens who participate also have the opportunity to win prizes, which can be cash, physical items, or virtual goods.

In addition to these, other celebrities from the company will also cooperate in promoting the event, releasing photos comparing their appearances ten years ago and now.

After Lu Ran finished reading, Shen Qingyi suggested, "Why don't you also post a comparison photo of yourself from ten years ago to promote the event?"

"can."

After waiting for two hours, Lu Ran went to the conference room again.

Zhao Long and his companion had finished the test.

Lu Ran checked the answers.

They did quite well on some of the questions, but their performance on the practical questions was a bit lacking.

That's normal; they both lack experience.

Based on their answers, both Zhao Long and Peng Zhuoran meet the requirements of Burning Studio.

As for their professional abilities, Lu Ran was also aware of their level.

Those who lack professional skills will not be able to pass the written test.

Zhao Long and Peng Zhuoran were quite nervous.

Fortunately, Lu Ran said at the end, "You have all passed the written test."

This relieved both of them.

As for signing Zhao Long and Peng Zhuo and deciding what songs to have them sing, let's not rush that. Let's go farm first.

At 10 a.m. the next day, Chang'an Entertainment released promotional videos for "Earth Trainees" on its accounts on various platforms.

The "Ten Years in a Hurry" campaign was also launched.

Since the article "In a Hurry" was published, there has been ongoing discussion about it online, which is why Chang'an Entertainment used "In a Hurry" as a starting point.

Following this was a video of ten agricultural trainees singing the song "The Story of Time" together.

After Chang'an Entertainment released the video, promotional resources quickly followed.

Netizens stumbled upon this video while scrolling through their TikTok feeds.

The video begins with a pastoral scene.

Song information also appeared.

"The Story of Time", lyrics and music by Lu Ran, sung by Da Di Trainees.

After seeing this message, netizens who were about to swipe away stopped.

"It was actually written by Lu Ran."

"What's this 'Earth Trainees' thing? Is it a new boy group?"

"This sounds like Lu Ran's new song!"

Everyone started listening.

Later, Zhao Long and his group of trainees made their appearance.

The arrangement of the song has been changed to be more cheerful and better suited to the youthful voices of these singers.

According to the company's plan, everyone sings this version now when they are young, and ten years later, when their voices have changed, they can sing a more weathered version.

"Spring flowers, autumn winds, and winter sunsets~"

While listening to the song, netizens watched the video.

The video features photo comparisons of ten contestants over ten years, as well as photo comparisons of farmers from rural areas over ten years.

"The flowing water carries away the stories of time and changes us."

"In that sentimental and first-time-remembered youth~"

While listening to this song, netizens compared photos in the video.

There are obvious changes between ten years ago and ten years later.

The once black-haired aunt has become white-haired, the once young girl has become a graceful young woman, and the once upright middle-aged man has become hunched over. "This song paired with this video is absolutely perfect!"

"Ten years can really change a lot!"

"This is the truest version of fleeting moments, this is the trace of time!"

Some netizens are easily moved; while watching the video and listening to the song, they felt like crying.

Later, the introduction of "Earth Trainee" was also released.

In the video, the trainees from Dadi made a ten-year promise with netizens.

This program will continue for ten years.

At the end of the video, a sentence appears on the screen.

"Farming is the slowest form of entertainment, but the land will give honest people the answer."

Many netizens who watched the entire video were captivated.

"This variety show about trainees is quite interesting. It seems to be a farming-themed show. I've never seen one before."

"Getting these celebrities to farm is no joke, I feel like it might actually work."

"It doesn't look like they're just trying to generate buzz; it looks like they're serious."

"I must say, this song 'The Story of Time' is really nice."

"This song really resonates with me."

"I'm not saying anything more, I'm going to find my photo from ten years ago, I want the prize!"

More and more netizens came across the video, liking and commenting on it, making it increasingly popular.

Subsequently, some netizens began sharing their photos from ten years ago and ten years later under the topic "Ten Years of Trainees on Earth".

The background music used in these short videos is also an instrumental version of "The Story of Time," which Shen Qingyi had arranged for people to prepare long ago.

Artists from Chang'an Entertainment also shared photo comparisons on Douyin.

In a short time, this topic became increasingly popular due to the combined support from various aspects.

Someone shared a photo comparison from ten years ago, showing how he transformed from a young man into a greasy middle-aged man, which brought amusement to everyone.

Someone shared a photo comparison of their loved one from ten years ago and now. Ten years ago, the loved one was still present, but ten years later, only the tombstone remained, which moved netizens to tears.

Ten years have passed. Some people have grown up, some have grown old, and some have undergone gender reassignment surgery.

Ten years is enough time for a lot to happen.

Later, the Sunshine Choir also released a ten-year comparison video.

However, the comparison over ten years is not between these children, but between Sunshine Primary School.

Ten years ago, Sunshine Primary School only had a dirt playground, leaky classrooms, and dilapidated desks. Ten years later, Sunshine Primary School has a playground, concrete classrooms, and multimedia equipment.

Sun Shengqiang's video has also received hundreds of thousands of likes.

But once this video was posted, the tone changed.

Who says that comparing things ten years ago and now only affects people, but also the environment!

Some netizens shared that places that were deserts ten years ago have become forests, while others shared that places that were impassable barriers ten years ago have now become accessible roads.

Netizens were both moved and excited.

A lot can really happen in ten years on this land of China.

Ten years is enough time for the Chinese people to change the world.

As netizens scrolled through the page, they noticed that Lu Ran hadn't shared a video yet, so they all went to Lu Ran's Douyin account to urge him to do so.

"Director Lu, hurry up and send me your ten-year comparison video. I want to see what you looked like ten years ago."

Finally, Lu Ran's video arrived late.

During the background music of "The Story of Time", a photo of Lu Ran from ten years ago appears.

Ten years ago, he was in the fifth grade of elementary school.

He stood at the school gate, head held high, wearing a three-stripe armband, his expression one of great pride.

In the video, Lu Ran also wrote a short essay.

"Some people ask me, how much power does a three-stripe officer have? Let me put it this way: looking at the whole class of more than 30 people, there are no more than two people with this position. Compared to other class monitors of the same level, I can report directly to the teacher, remember names, manage discipline, and directly liaise with the school's Young Pioneers."

If you don't understand enough, let me take a classmate from the next class as an example. He copied homework and got a demerit, but it's not worth me intervening. It's just a matter of the class representative saying a word.

Ten years later, when I look at this photo again, I ask myself: Back then, did you really think that those three stripes could change anything?

Yes, back then, I thought that by wearing it, I could reason with the whole world.

Later I realized that true honor is not the armband given by the teacher, but the starlight that spontaneously shines from the audience when you stand on the stage.

Ten years have passed in a flash. Lu Ran hopes to see everyone again in ten years!

After watching the video and reading the article, netizens left three thumbs-up comments.

"Director Lu, you're truly outstanding!"
