"It's not easy for me to get a seedling...... I'm going to let you trample on me, bear! ”
"I didn't step on it for you."
On the ridge of his own field, "Brother Coat" Zhu Zhiwen was dressed neatly, wielding a hoe to dig open the loess in front of him, and he was still surrounded by familiar selfie sticks and mobile phone lenses.
The villagers in the distance muttered, complaining that someone had trampled on his seedlings, and when they became more and more indignant, they simply pointed the finger at "Brother Dayi", saying that it was all his "trouble".
"Brother Coat" was neither angry nor annoyed, but helpless, and seemed a little cowardly to defend a few words, with an embarrassed smile on his face, and his hands clutching the hoe, which were also a little restrained and unnatural.
From wearing a military coat and becoming popular all over the country with his cover of "Rolling Yangtze River East Passing Water", and being praised as a "rural artist", to today, a full 13 years have passed, Zhu Zhiwen still has not left his homeland to hide, and is still living in onlookers.
So, what is the change in Zhu Zhiwen's state of mind now? What do you think of these people who came to shoot him? In a recent media interview, Zhu Zhiwen once again spoke his inner words.
In the eyes of some, Zhu Zhiwen's fame is inspirational, reflecting the pursuit of dreams and the love of art for the new socialist peasants.
Of course, there are still some people who think that Zhu Zhiwen sings well on that song, and he is not worthy of this sky-high wealth at all, especially the villagers of Zhulou Village, they don't understand, how can this rough man who used to roar on the ground all day long be able to ascend to the sky in one step?
Confucius said: "Do not suffer from poverty but suffer from inequality", in popular words: "If you are not afraid of the hardships of your brothers, you are afraid that your brothers will drive a Land Rover", there is a natural jealousy in human nature, and then it becomes a hatred of the rich.
Therefore, when Zhu Zhiwen returned from fame and paid out of his own pocket to do good deeds in the village, not only did not many people praise and thank him, but most of them accepted it peacefully, saying that this is what the other party should do, "reaching the world and helping the world", and even more, he also thought that Zhu Zhiwen's road to the village was too short......
For a long time, the streets and alleys of Zhu Gui Village were crowded, and the houses of the old Zhu family were about to be crowded, all to take a few pictures of Zhu Zhiwen and gain fans and traffic for themselves.
No one can be popular all the time, but as long as the fame is still there, then it can always be done, Zhu Zhiwen is now in such a situation, usually accepting dozens of bloggers to shoot, and when he is invited to perform, he will appear to make extra money.
But he doesn't seem to have the simple happiness he had at the beginning, Zhu Zhiwen himself said: "I used to stand on the stage just to sing, but now I ...... Just feeling coping with this event. ”
is different from the previous public appearances in various David TVs, and now Zhu Zhiwen is basically invited to go to fertilizer, pesticide and other manufacturers to perform in acupoints, but the same thing is that what must be sung every time is still the song "Rolling Yangtze River East Passing Water" that can no longer be more familiar.
Some people once questioned that obviously his life has been seriously affected, and Zhu Zhiwen also has a lot of money, why can't he live in a cleaner place?
He only explained that because he was reluctant to leave the hometown where he was raised, even if there were more distractions around him, he could still feel at ease and steady when he was facing the loess with his back to the sky.
But Zhu Zhiwen did not think about leaving, when he saw thousands of people coming to the village, he was also very entangled, feeling that he had brought trouble to his neighbors, and he thought that his daily life had become transparent and had no privacy at all.
"It's been on fire for thirteen years, it's not that I want to be popular, it's natural to be popular", facing the camera again, he said a very relieved sentence, "It's been more than ten years, and I naturally adapted." ”
The current Zhu Zhiwen is like a master who is practicing in the village, and every day in the courtyard is the same as before, he is only doing his own thing in it, and he is not shocked and relieved.
During the break, Zhu Zhiwen sat in the rocking chair, and would also meet everyone's requirements, pick up the microphone and sing a few songs.
Some villagers who can put down their faces, just by live broadcasting Zhu Zhiwen's daily life, they make a lot of money, and Mr. Yang, 51 years old, has recently changed from an elderly machine to a smart phone, in order to create an account to shoot Zhu Zhiwen.
This start seems a little late, but Mr. Yang is still full of confidence, saying that his main direction in the future is to broadcast Zhu Zhiwen live, and said unabashedly: "(Brother Dayi) The traffic on the Internet is still very large. ”
After hearing this, the anchor with the screen name Murong Jiu next to him also took the initiative to use his own story to prove Mr. Yang's words.
In August 2023, Murong Jiu released a video of Zhu Zhiwen singing the Yangtze River, but when he opened his eyes the next day, the number of views showed a figure of 9 million, and the number of fans rose by nearly 30,000 in an instant, and it has not stopped yet.
When everyone commented on Zhu Zhiwen, they all seemed to know it, and they all downplayed their shooting behavior, and instead said that Zhu Zhiwen's attitude was very good, very enthusiastic, and sometimes he would take the initiative to invite everyone into the house.
Regarding the doubts of fans in the live broadcast room, a podcaster was sincere and said sincerely: "What we eat and drink is given by Mr. Zhu", after speaking, I felt that this sentence had ambiguity, so I added an explanation: "Although it is not given directly, I have a thousand fans a day, isn't it a pity to leave?" ”
There are also people who inadvertently said a problem that everyone often ignores, that is, why didn't Zhu Zhiwen go live broadcast himself? The reporter also asked Zhu Zhiwen curiously, but he asked first: "Why do you open an account?" ”
Immediately afterwards, Zhu Zhiwen told a very rational reason, often walking by the river, how can there be no wet shoes, he is photographed, and it still affects his daily life, if he takes the initiative to show himself, wouldn't it be more transparent?
Perhaps because he has suffered a loss, Zhu Zhiwen has a very simple and simple understanding of the impact of the live broadcast, but it is very incisive: "Answer questions, there is no privacy, if you don't answer questions, people say you avoid it", so I simply don't shoot.
The current Zhu Zhiwen and those anchors around him seem to have reached a wonderful balance, on the one hand, they need such a role to earn traffic, and on the other hand, they need everyone to continue to bring exposure to themselves, win-win cooperation, and friends in water.
Zhu Zhiwen said: "Hello, I'm good, everyone is good, just do it." ”
But as time went by, an Internet celebrity who was also Shandong Heze was born - Guo Youcai, the anchors who were still saying good things by Brother Dayi's side not long ago, left for a while to pursue newer hot spots.
On the way, they said vaguely: "There is a chance to come back", "(Zhu Zhiwen) now grows vegetables and goes to the fields all day long, and there is no novelty." ”
