Chapter 349: What do you think is a suitable name for this program?
"idea?"
Yuan Quan didn't know how Fang Ge got inspiration from a push notification on his phone, so he asked:
"What do you think?"
"The idea of our project,"
Fangge said:
"Boss, I'm playing a game called Stardew Valley..."
Speaking of.
Fang Ge gave Yuan Quan a brief introduction to the game.
This is all thanks to Yuan Quan, who has many ideas and is willing to listen.
If it were someone else, he would probably go crazy just by hearing the word "game" before Fangge could even introduce the game.
I've been thinking so hard about the project that my hair is falling out in clumps. My boss just scolded me for staying up late playing games. How dare you mention games now?
Even those with a worse temper would slam the table on the spot and tell Fangge to pack up, pack up and leave, and go home to play games.
But Yuan Quan didn't.
He listened patiently to Fang Ge's introduction, with his surprise and astonishment growing higher and higher.
Pastoral wine, romantic star valley.
Do you think this game is fun?
The answer is of course yes. Although Yuan Quan is not obsessed with games, he has played games before. Just listening to Fangge's introduction to such a magical game made him quite interested.
But do you think the charm of this game is limited to its "playability"?
It doesn't seem so.
At least Yuan Quan doesn't think so.
Modern people have been trapped in urban cages for too long.
We indulge in coffee and red wine in the city, but forget about clinking glasses and singing in the countryside.
We are trapped in cubicles, the lights of overtime workers become stars in the steel jungle under the night sky, but we have forgotten the warmth of sitting next to the tall grain piles and listening to our mother telling stories.
People need rest, and so does the soul.
What this game provides players is a safe haven to escape from their mental distress.
Although there are a lot of things happening in the game every day.
Although 627's life is also full.
But the happiness and satisfaction are incomparable to the 996 workstation in the city.
"...and recently Golden Wind has opened a villa in Binjiang, called Stardew Valley Villa."
Fang Ge said, handing the phone to Yuan Quan:
"Although their villa is just called a villa, and its actual scale is just like a farmhouse, it is almost exactly the same as in the game."
Yuan Quan took Fang Ge's phone and checked it. He raised his eyebrows slightly, as if he understood Fang Ge's idea:
"you mean……?"
"Um,"
Fang Ge nodded, his face full of hope:
"I think we can give it a try, what do you think, Boss?"
…
"If you ask me, why don't you just use bamboo strips to insert them diagonally? It's easier than sawing the wood strips here. Look at anyone's chicken coop that uses wooden stakes."
Standing in the farmyard!
Yuan Quan waved his hand and gave orders!
Daming and Ali, who were working, were confused: "What does it mean to insert bamboo strips diagonally? Boss? I don't understand..."
"Tsk, why did I bring you useless guys here?"
Yuan Quan held his forehead, sighed softly, waved his hand and said:
"Go, go, Ali, go find Fangge to pick the corn. Daming, go get some bamboo strips. Haven't you seen how to weave a basket? Just stick one end into the soil and weave the other end diagonally..."
good!
The very next day after Fang Ge made the proposal, Yuan Quan found his boss, applied for the inspection (vacation) qualification, and then immediately booked a ticket for the Stardew Valley Resort. After waiting for a week, he went straight to Binjiang.
Yes, they even waited a week to get a number.
This means that this outrageous "pay to work" project still has quite a few people supporting it, and some even give it very good reviews!
After arriving here, Yuan Quan seemed to understand why this unique vacation project could attract so many people.
First of all, the environment here.
Far away from the hustle and bustle of the city, here you can enjoy picturesque scenery with clear water and green hills. The smell of soil mixed with the fresh air of the wilderness hits you in the face. It is like a natural oxygen bar.
It may sound a bit exaggerated, but it is true. The air here is a pleasure to breathe.
Secondly, the atmosphere here is great.
Although it is still just a small farm stay, the quality of the staff who greet guests and introduce services is extremely high. There are even rumors that the foremen of the service team here came from the InterContinental Hotel under Shen Capital.
As soon as you enter the courtyard, a rustic atmosphere hits you.
Although the courtyard is ordinary, it is clean and tidy, without any clutter.
It is worth noting that at this time, there seemed to be only a brick stove in the courtyard that had been built, while the shed and doghouse were only half completed.
“This is all done by the tourists themselves,”
Miss Jieyin said as she led Yuan Quan and his party to the living room in the house, and pointed to the photo wall in the living room:
"Every group of visitors who come here can choose materials from the tool room on the east side of the yard to add bricks and tiles to the yard."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone looked up and exclaimed.
There are various souvenirs from different tourists on the photo wall.
Some were laying straw roofs for the arbor, some were standing around the brick stove and making a "V" sign with their hands up, some were proudly displaying their carvings, some were laughing out loud with arms full of corn and wearing straw hats, and some were holding radishes and making funny faces with mud on their faces.
There were men and women, young and old, and everyone had a happy smile on their face.
They may not all be gamers.
But there is no doubt that they are all people who love life.
And everything here is enriched by their hard work and creation.
The so-called Stardew Valley Villa seems like a huge time capsule, sealing up the precious and beautiful memories of every visitor who comes here.
Perhaps many years later, these tourists who once left their mark here will return again.
By then, they will see the new creations of future visitors and also find the memories they once left here.
This is a romantic utopia.
A utopia that allows people to completely relax.
And after an introduction!
Yuan Quan and his companions were also attracted by this idealistic romance. They put down their luggage, rolled up their sleeves and started working.
This time, Yuan Quan's group included six people, four men and two women.
Under Yuan Quan's command, everyone first built the shed that had not yet been completed. The two girls then brought two sturdy hemp ropes and asked Fang Ge to saw a piece of wood for them to make a swing. Then they picked wild flowers and planted them in pots, thus completing an important facility in the courtyard.
Afterwards, Yuan Quan took his fishing rod and went fishing, while Fang Ge and another brother sang while picking corn.
As for Daming and Ali, they set their sights on a vacant lot on the west side of the courtyard and planned to build a chicken coop there.
The wild flowers were fragrant, and although the girl's floral dress was stained with a little dirt, it seemed more intimate and beautiful under the reflection of the pastoral sunshine.
The fields were lush and green. The men sang about their past selves. They seemed to have turned into the young man who wanted to travel the world with a sword, laughing in the chorus of dililililididada.
The pond is clear, and the shadow of the sun shines through the lush woods, scattering golden fragments onto the wide water surface, reflecting on the free-swimming fish, creating bursts of brilliance.
It seems that what we are never tired of is not work, but our own routine life.
"It's good to change, huh?"
As night falls!
A warm fire was lit in the courtyard, with wisps of smoke rising from the barbecue grill.
The golden edges of the roasted meat are fragrant, with golden oil sizzling out of them. When you put it in your mouth, it is very chewy, and the aroma of charcoal and cumin dances on the tip of your tongue.
On the side, the hand-skewered lamb is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and it is juicy when you take a bite. The best lamb is tender and juicy with a milky aroma. Sprinkle a handful of barbecue seasoning on it, like a veil covering a beauty , and the dreamy deliciousness blooms in your mouth.
The eggplants and peppers were all picked from the fields, and two kilograms of grilled fish was also harvested by Yuan Quan in the afternoon.
The girl was swinging on the swing, drinking a glass of freshly squeezed iced pear juice, eating grilled skewers with relish, and laughing as sweet as a silver bell.
The men raised their glasses and drank the cold beer, which made them shout with joy and laugh loudly!
Perhaps it was because the construction during the day was too exhausting, or perhaps it was because the ingredients cooked by oneself were particularly delicious.
The sweetness of this meal is beyond imagination!
And after three rounds of drinking!
Yuan Quan also raised his glass and said drunkenly:
"Come on! Let's raise a toast together! Cheers to Fang Ge! If he hadn't fallen asleep at the meeting that day, there wouldn't have been any sudden inspiration later, and there wouldn't have been any team building for our inspection this time!"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone burst into laughter.
Fang Ge was even more embarrassed and scratched his head, his face turned red:
"Boss... Boss... let's not talk about that..."
Ding ding dong!
The cups clinked together!
Under the bright moonlight, a warm group photo of the group under the pergola was recorded, becoming another new scenery on the photo wall.
…
"…After we returned, it took about two or three days for us to produce this plan, which then went through two rounds of revisions, and it is what you see now, Mr. Gu."
At this moment, Yuan Quan, who was sitting in the Golden Wind No. 1 conference room, looked a little nervous and embarrassed, like a newcomer to the workplace attending a job interview.
And the "Mr. Gu" he mentioned was naturally no one else.
As the pages turned, Gu Sheng browsed the project plan in front of him.
For a moment, the conference room fell into silence.
good!
Today, Yuan Quan came to Binjiang again to negotiate the land lease with Golden Wind.
Just as he said, within a short period of time after the team-building investigation, the planning team, which was deeply impressed by rural life, came up with a new form of variety show plan.
The speed is fast and the content is not complicated.
"We call it the first 'slow variety show' in China,"
Yuan Quan introduced:
"Because according to our personal experience, the success of Stardew Valley Villa also reflects to a certain extent the mental oppression of today's fast-paced life on people and their need to slow down,"
“That’s exactly what we saw,”
"In fact, this variety show mode is also a tribute to your company's "Stardew Valley", I hope you don't mind,"
"It is precisely because of this that we immediately focused our attention on your company."
"I hope you can give some consideration to the land leasing issue..."
Finished speaking.
Yuan Quan looked at Gu Sheng, wanting to see his reaction.
Stardew Valley Villa for rent.
This is definitely the best choice for mango.
After all, not only is the environment here good and the equipment complete, but more importantly, it is an industry under Golden Wind, and it is a direct gaming peripheral with its own traffic.
However!
What surprised and disappointed him was!
After reading it, Gu Sheng actually shook his head slowly!
“I don’t think the venue leasing issue is a good idea.”
Yuan Quan's heart skipped a beat!
Bad food.
People don’t agree!
Perhaps it is out of consideration for the purity of the villa, or perhaps it is because they do not want to disrupt the villa's nascent revenue stream.
In short, Gu Sheng, who sits in the second position of Golden Wind and has the primary decision-making power, now shook his head and rejected their proposal of Mango TV.
Not good...
Yuan Quan thought to himself that this was a difficult situation.
Now, the variety show they launched called "Field Life" has just been prepared, and every aspect is blank.
Originally, I was thinking of finding Golden Wind to secure the venue first, and then looking for investment.
But I never expected this.
The first step at the beginning is so difficult.
Golden Wind didn't even give them any room for maneuver. In a word, they directly rejected the venue rental!
Holding on to the last glimmer of hope, Yuan Quan wanted to try again. After all, he was already here, he couldn't just be turned down by just one sentence, right?
"Then...what do you think is the mismatch between this variety show and your side?"
Yuan Quan asked:
"You can bring it up first, and we can discuss it in detail later..."
That’s it!
Yuan Quan smiled apologetically and gave Gu Sheng a friendly, inquiring look.
then!
Gu Sheng groaned for a moment, then smiled softly and said:
“I don’t think the name is very good.”
“Ah…ah?”
Yuan Quan was confused. What kind of excuse was this?
Is this a thing?
The program hasn't been finalized yet, so it's entirely possible to change its name on the spot!
Can this be considered a reason?
"What do you think?"
Yuan Quan grinned slightly and asked cautiously:
"What do you think would be a suitable name for this program?"
Hearing this!
Gu Sheng closed the plan in his hand, put it in front of him, and said:
"Or call——"
"Live the life you desire,"
"Or add a prefix in front,"
"Golden Wind-Longing for Life"
