Chapter 153 Migrant Workers
Chapter 153 Migrant Workers
The dining place was a bit far away, and Niu Jiachang originally wanted to do as he did before, and have his fellow workers from the same village ride on the truck bed and go back together.
But after all, it is a program recording, so it is better not to let such violations of traffic rules appear in the program.
The temporary change of plan made Niu Jiasheng feel troubled. The place where his wife sold lunch boxes today was a bit far from here, and he would have to go there without a car.
The only options are the subway or bus. You can't spend a day's wages on a taxi.
The program is being recorded now, and the workers at the construction site are busy working. No one has time to pay attention to these stars who won’t pay them.
But it’s different when they put on military coats. Except for Kong Lingxi, the fans of the other four are relatively limited, but they still have a certain national popularity.
It is not convenient to wear masks during the recording, so we can only pray that they are dirty enough that others cannot recognize them and will not cause panic.
Yu Jiang was frightened when he was recording an outdoor variety show before. When he came out, he kept looking around, fearing that he would be accidentally trampled to death by the onlookers.
Fortunately, there weren't a large number of fans and onlookers outside, but there were still some paparazzi who knew their itinerary.
Some footage of celebrities moving bricks had been captured on high floors before, but now there are only three or two paparazzi downstairs.
In addition, because the three female guests have young fan groups, there are many photographers and fans waiting for them outside.
Although the two actors have high citizenship, just like Yu Jiang before he started competing for attention, everyone is familiar with them and they don’t have many fans following them.
The advantage of having proxy photographers over fans is that as long as the real subject looks towards the camera from time to time and no one stops them, they will not be ostentatious most of the time.
Compared with ordinary fans, the fans have more opportunities to see their own sisters, so when they knew it was during the filming period, they were not very excited.
Because she had to take the bus soon, Yu Jiang couldn't control others, but she herself had a certain relationship with the photographer and cooperated with their work.
People from different groups prefer to divide into different areas. Yu Jiang went directly to her own area to persuade her fans to leave, and also asked some fans who specialized in taking pictures of her to leave.
Originally, Yu Jiang's look today wasn't good, so there wouldn't be many photos. So he might as well leave a good impression on his sister, so that she can cooperate and take a few more photos next time they meet.
There aren't many people left, about thirty in total, which is still acceptable.
Dong Manshu, who often records variety shows, saw that the fan club member he was familiar with had an idea, so he just tried to get close to her and didn't have to take the bus.
With this demonstration, Kong Lingxi followed suit and found a station girl and a cameraman to take the ride directly.
The two of them didn't leave just for themselves. It must be more cost-effective to take the bus, and the footage along the way is more likely to be edited into the main film.
But if we walk together, thirty people may not sound like a lot, but with the cameramen and guests, it is still a huge group of people.
Now that they have left in a car, their fans and photographers will naturally follow them, reducing the possibility of other guests being exposed.
The number of cameramen in public places has also been reduced a lot, with just one for each guest, so there is less risk for teams taking the bus.
Although there were not many people from the program crew following them, it was still very eye-catching to see a dozen dirty construction workers walking together.
From the moment she got on the bus, Yu Jiang felt that everyone around her was looking at her.
Unlike the usual admiration and joy, what I sensed from the onlookers today was disgust and malice.
The program crew was so worried that they temporarily hired a group of security personnel, but now it seems that their worries were unnecessary.
None of the three were recognized. On this bus, the movie stars who were once highly respected were now looked down upon.
Maybe because the cameras are hidden and there are no obvious signs, other passengers are not even willing to take a second look at them.
Because they finished work late and the bus was heading to the development zone, there were many empty seats on the bus.
Yu Jiang, who had not had time to eat on time, had already started to have stomachache. If Qi Lecheng, who had worked with her before, had not given her some biscuits in advance, her stomachache might have been even worse.
Niu Jiachang gave the back row seats to the three guests, and he and other workers stood in the least conspicuous place in the carriage.
The workers who were chatting happily outside the construction site just now were now quiet and cautious, not saying a word.
Although there were quite a few of them, Yu Jiang was very sure that they did not affect anyone, and they did not even dare to sit in an empty seat.
But the looks directed at them were still seldom friendly, and the feeling of annoyance was beyond words. It seemed that they were the only ones in the carriage who didn't belong here.
We were in low spirits throughout the journey, but fortunately the journey was not far, and only after we got off the bus did the workers start chatting happily again.
The three guests still felt sad. They walked at the end, keeping a slight distance from their fellow workers.
Yu Jiang lowered his voice and said, "I don't quite understand. What's the difference between them and those young people who come to Beijing from other places to work hard? Why do they discriminate so obviously?"
Qi Lecheng smiled bitterly and patted the white ash on his body, "Maybe we are a little dirty?"
"If you ask me, some citizens still discriminate against migrant workers, and most construction workers are migrant workers."
Qi Lecheng put his arm around Huo Jingshu's shoulder and said with a smile, "We are both outsiders, so does Queen Yu discriminate against us?"
Yu Jiang knew that he was trying to liven up the atmosphere because he saw that he was in a bad mood, so he said, "Welcome to Jing City."
Huo Jingshu also laughed and said, "It seems that not all people in Beijing discriminate against us migrant workers."
Kong Lingxi and Dong Manshu, who arrived earlier by car, came forward when they saw them coming. Noticing that the atmosphere was not very lively, Dong Manshu asked a question.
After knowing the whole story, Kong Lingxi, as the person who could best understand their situation, shrugged off the concerns of other guests.
"We don't care whether there is discrimination or not. We didn't leave our hometown to please someone. We did it so that we and our families can live a better life."
"You won't earn a penny less if no one likes you. Does it matter whether they like you or not? Do you really need their pity?"
Yu Jiang nodded and said, "That's true, but everyone wants to be respected by others, right?"
"Tsk, respect can't be spent as money, and there's no need to say something high-sounding like "migrant workers built the city". It's meaningless."
At this moment, Kong Lingxi seemed like an angry young man, and seemed to see her former self in the guests' stories.
She once came from a small coastal village to a big city to work, and she had to stand timidly in the corner on the subway.
At that time, the girl was confused when she first came to the city and felt inferior about her background.
It was only later that she realized that whether others respected her or not was not worth her attention as long as it did not affect her ability to make money.
