Audiences who originally thought this was a documentary about eating food, they have a new understanding of it.

Of course, there are always daring people willing to try. Soon, a "tasting report" of the food shown in the second episode appeared on the Internet.

The live broadcast of pictures and texts is already rudimentary. Numerous food broadcasts on the Chuyin Video Network have visited the folks and started bold tastings.

Waiting for the video to spring up like bamboo shoots after the rain, but it makes the living food area become popular again.

This kind of curious shooting and editing is obviously infected by the Internet style. Traditional documentaries will not produce this effect. Not only did the dark food not dissuade, but it made everyone more interested in this documentary.

When the third episode was broadcast, the number of simultaneous online viewers of the documentary had exceeded one million. The vegetarian dishes in the third episode were just like a recipe for barbecue, so that the audience who had experienced the baptism of dark ingredients in the second episode could breathe. This is exactly the pun meaning of the subtitle "Let's order vegetarian dishes".

Jingping, Zhou Xiao, the documentary director of the National Television Station, thinks that the appearance of her daughter is a bit weird recently.

He is from the north, but he came to Jingping from university. After graduation, he joined the national TV station. After decades of work, his daughter grew up in Jingping and never returned to his hometown a few times.

Two days ago, the daughter who had just finished the college entrance examination and was enjoying the summer vacation asked mysteriously after eating.

"Dad, have you ever eaten roasted silkworm pupa?"

The daughter's eyes widened and she was quite curious.

"Roasted silkworm chrysalis? What are you asking for?"

Zhou Xiao asked back. He remembered that he had caught the roast in the countryside when he was a child. It was crispy and delicious, but he never ate it after reading. As for silkworm pupae, he remembered this tradition in his hometown, but he didn't taste it. Over.

"I heard that this is our Northeast special barbecue."

The daughter explained that she was very sincere.

"I don't know the characteristics or not, but our hometown does have similar food, which is to skewer silkworms that have not broken cocoons. Many elderly people like to eat it. Your dad is timid and dare not eat it."

Zhou Xiao is usually busy at work and rarely has time to accompany his daughter. These few days are just the completion of the documentary that he was in charge of shooting before. Only then are there days when he will not be used to go back and forth. Therefore, he patiently explained the topics his daughter mentioned. With.

"What about roasted moths directly, and roasted green silkworms?"

The daughter took advantage of the victory and pursued, and continued to ask.

"Roasted moths? You can eat this too? The green silkworms are tussah silkworms. They eat the leaves of tussah trees. The green ones are big. Someone in my hometown used to raise them. Can this be eaten?"

Zhou Xiao felt weird, and immediately became a little puzzled. Where did the daughter who usually study obediently see this weird thing?

"I heard that it's very delicious to bake."

The daughter said confidently.

"Where did you hear it, I don't know these things."

Zhou Xiao then traced the roots and turned his attention from the TV to his daughter.

"I watched it in the documentary."

"Documentary?"

Zhou Xiao came to his spirits. He was making documentaries. What documentaries have not been seen in his life? Didn't you remember any documentaries that talk about roasting moths?

"Yes, Dad, you usually make documentaries in the station, do you have to do those things yourself, such as trying to eat food?"

The daughter asked.

"We must be very rigorous. After all, documentaries are not TV series. You must seek truth from facts. That's why your dad runs all over the country."

Zhou Xiao explained and continued to ask.

"Which documentary with roasted moths you just mentioned?"

"A String of Life", it's popular on the Internet now."

The daughter answered naturally.

"A String of Life? Which TV station? Why didn't I know that there is still this documentary?"

Zhou Xiao felt that he had never heard of this film, and suddenly became interested.

You know, Zhou Xiao used to worry about letting her daughter watch less TV series animations and watch more knowledge-enhancing programs such as documentaries, but her daughter always felt that those documentaries were too serious, too dull, and lacking in interest.

Now there is a documentary that allows her daughter to ask him in turn, although it seems a bit strange to roast moths and silkworm pupas, but after all, Zhou Xiao has achieved something that Zhou Xiao can't do, and he is naturally very concerned.

"Dad, this documentary is not broadcast on TV. It is broadcast on the Internet. As for the Chuyin Video Network that I usually watch, you don't usually pay much attention to things on the Internet. You definitely don't know."

The daughter said truthfully.

"Hatsune Video Network?"

Zhou Xiao only knows that this is a website that specializes in broadcasting animations, and his department has not much contact with the Internet. He has heard other colleagues mention it occasionally.

"show me?"

Hearing Zhou Xiao's words, the daughter's eyes suddenly lit up, she took the tablet out of the room and said.

"Dad, this documentary has been broadcast for three episodes now, do you want to watch it from the beginning?"

"Then look at it from the beginning."

Zhou Xiao asked her daughter to press the play button, and the father and daughter looked at it.

Not long after watching it, Zhou Xiao's heart surged.

From the perspective of professionals, this documentary has many flaws in shooting techniques and mirroring, but it is unique in creativity.

There was a proposal similar to a food documentary in the front desk, but there was a dispute about what to shoot. Some wanted to shoot the four major cuisines, and some wanted to start from the city. In the end, the whole topic became very vague. No one can convince anyone. Everyone is not clear about the significance of science education in shooting food, and in the end it is still nothing.

Now Zhou Xiao usually shoots some historical and nature documentaries, but also about architecture and intangible cultural heritage. These documentaries are high-end and atmospheric, but they are obviously not close to the people.

But this "A String of Life" seems to talk about barbecue, but it is actually shooting life. Through barbecue, the most popular diet, it reflects the daily life of the people behind the market, which conveys some cultural beliefs. It's the real empathy in the scenery.

Watching the documentary ~www.NovelMTL.com~ Zhou Xiao suddenly got inspiration.

Since barbecues can reflect human sentiments and culture, are there similar stories behind other foods that can show the lives and pursuits of Chinese people through food?

Historical documentaries show the long history of Chinese civilization by shooting cultural relics and telling the rise and fall of history. Natural documentaries convey the idea of ​​harmonious coexistence between man and nature by shooting animals and presenting the multiplication of species.

So, can food documentaries also convey the humanistic story behind the food and show the historical features of China?

Zhou Xiaoyue became more excited about this, and couldn't help standing up.

"Dad, what's the matter with you?"

The daughter was still immersed in the delicacy of the barbecue. Although she had watched it once, she was still drooling. Seeing her father suddenly stood up, she was a little confused.

"Where is the website for making this documentary?"

Zhou Xiao asked, he felt that he was going on a business trip.
