Metropolis: My Rising Life

At night, Chen Yi took out his laptop and edited the video about this poor mountain village taken in the past two days.

Chen Yi does not edit, but because of the system, just doing this will increase the skill experience level.

Chen Yi is not going to be a master of editing, let alone a director, so he can rise to a skill level and let him learn the basic editing skills to deal with this simple video.

Cut out most of the excessively long videos, leaving only the most important part.

After cutting, I looked at the video for about 6 minutes. This time is not too long for the audience, and the content is full enough to be suitable for publishing.

By uploading this rather crude video that I edited myself directly to my station B account, Chen Yi can be regarded as the UP master of station B.

The mountain village's network is a bit slow, and the video needs to be reviewed after uploading, so Chen Yi didn't have to worry about it. He turned on the computer and let it continue uploading, and he fell asleep.

Early the next morning, Chen Yi and Yu Zixi were going to leave.

No one knew him when he came. When he left, many people in the village came out to see him off.

Under the leadership of the old man, the children came over to express their gratitude to Chen Yi and wanted to give him something enthusiastically.

Chen Yi didn't spend much money, but he really walked into the hearts of these villagers.

He did this with selfish intentions. Yu Zixi went to college in Shencheng. There was only a third-year sister and an elderly lady at home. If something happened, it would be too late to inform Yu Zixi.

And since I came with Yu Zixi, other people would think that he has a close relationship with Yu Zixi's family, and this gift of my own will also make other villagers grateful to Yu Zixi's family.

The so-called distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. If something happens to Yu Zixi's family, these neighbors will surely take the initiative to help.

"Brother, when will you come again."

Before leaving, beside the SUV, Yu Ziying blinked her big, pure and thorough doll-like eyes, and looked at Chen Yi with a bit of reluctance.

My sister is so close to Chen Yi, who has only known each other for two or three days, but she ignores her own sister, which makes Yu Zixi a little bit ridiculous.

"Well, if Yingying scores well in the final exam this time, how about your brother taking you to the Imperial Capital to watch the flag raising ceremony during the winter vacation?"

Chen Yi thought for a while, and said something that Yu Ziying could not refuse at all.

Yu Ziying's eyes lit up, and immediately jumped up excitedly and said, "...Brother, don't lie!"

"Haha, I will lie to no one to lie to you a little girl, what can you lie to... By the way, this one is for you..."

Chen Yi took out a new mobile phone and handed it to Yu Ziying.

The mobile phone is not a high-end mobile phone, but a mid-to-low-end mobile phone of about 2,000 yuan from Xiaomi, which may cause some problems for Yu Ziying's too good mobile phone. Chen Yi still understands these things.(Read more @ mtlarchive.com)

In any case, I would like to thank Mr. Xia Lei’s Xiaomi. It is precisely because of its appearance that the price of low- and mid-end mobile phones has fallen, and these mid- and low-end smart phones have also appeared cost-effective.

Seeing that Chen Yi wanted to give her a mobile phone, Yu Ziying didn't dare to ask for it, so she turned her hand on her back.

Yu Zixi stopped Chen Yi even more and said anxiously: "...Chen Yi, still don't give her such an expensive thing, and what if she is fond of playing mobile phones and not learning well."

Chen Yi said with a smile: "...give Yingying a mobile phone, you can use WeChat voice chat in the future, Yingying can also take some pictures of home to show you, so that you can feel more at home."

"...As for the study problem, if she really gets worse in her studies, she will confiscate her mobile phone when you come back, and I won't take him to the Imperial Capital to see the flag raising, what do you think?"

Chen Yi's words completely entered Yu Zixi's heart, making her feel a little hesitant.

If she has a mobile phone at home, she can indeed be closer to her home, making the distance of thousands of kilometers zero.

But Yu Zixi still did not agree. Although Chen Yi had spent a lot of money on the whole village before, he bought rice and noodles.

But the nature of mobile phones is different from those necessities of life. Chen Yi gave his sister a mobile phone too expensive.

Chen Yi could guess Yu Zixi's thoughts. He shook his head and continued: "...I know you think this thing is too expensive and you think you will owe me more, but you can cook more for me in the future. Just make a few meals as a repayment."

"But the food I cook is not worth so much money."

Yu Zixi whispered.

"I don't want you to think, I want me to think!"

"I think the food you cook is delicious, then it's worth so much money. You know, the money I spent on a meal outside may be several of these phones."

Chen Yi's words were quite strong, making Yu Zixi scream for a long time, unable to say anything to refute, she even dared not refuse such a strong Chen Yi.

"The cooking video I made for you before is also quite good. Then you will learn how to edit and add filters on your mobile phone, and you will directly post it on the Internet. Maybe you will become hot in the future, and you will be a big brother. You take care of me."

Chen Yi joked.

"How can this kind of cooking video become popular..."

People adapt quickly. Yu Zixi has learned a lot from living in Shencheng for more than a month.

Surfing the Internet and watching videos, although she is not very proficient in watching videos, she is gradually getting acquainted with it. It is no longer what she did when she first arrived in Shencheng. She knows nothing and is curious about everything.

It was also because of watching many videos at school that Yu Zixi felt that making videos of her own cooking might be hot, but she remembered everything Chen Yi said.

Even Yu Zixi didn't realize that she already trusted Chen Yi very much, and what she said to him was even regarded as truth.

Seeing Yu Zixi's expression, Chen Yi knew that she had agreed, and put the mobile phone case in her hand into Yu Ziying's arms. The little girl looked at her sister again and silently accepted it.

"Thank you brother..."

Yu Ziying squeezed the phone case in her hand, with a bright smile on her face, and said to Chen Yi excitedly.

It is impossible for a child of this age not to want a mobile phone.

"Don't thank me, little girl, remember, if you don't study well, the phone will be taken back."

Chen Yi frightened Yu Ziying.

The little girl nodded vigorously, and said seriously: "...I will study hard, and I will be admitted to university like my sister, and then I will go to the big city to find my brother for you."

Chen Yi smiled and did not speak.

When you are admitted to university, I will have graduated, okay, I may not decide which city to live in at that time!

Everything was done here. The young and old in the village sent Chen Yi and Yu Zixi to the entrance of the village and watched them drive away in the SUV.

It took more than two hours to drive back from the small village to the city. After returning the car, the two went to the train station and prepared to return to Shanghai.

Chen Yi brought up a bunch of things when he came, and when he went back, he still brought up a bunch of things, all of which were some native eggs and homemade condiments that the villagers gave him.

The kindness is difficult, and Chen Yi is not easy to refuse, so he can only bring it back by himself. The villagers gave a lot of things, but Chen Yi refused a lot because he couldn't get them.

The enlightenment time for this train was a bit late, and it was already night when Chen Yi and the others arrived in Shanghai.

Just stepping out of the train and seeing the high-rise buildings in the city, listening to the crowds around him gave Chen Yi a sense of alienation and a deeper understanding of the domestic situation.

Sure enough, it is very feasible to occupy the lower market like Pinduoduo.

He had only seen some statistics before, but now he has confirmed with his eyes that the international metropolis like Shanghai is only a small part of the country, and most places are not so developed at all.

This also made Chen Yi determined to create a wealth myth.
