I Love FarmingCh8 - Clicked On The Wrong Channel

Editor: malaysian_asian

From the time Cui QiChao stayed in the virtual plane, the company finally had enough material to make an episode out of it.

And, unfortunately, what Lin Lin feared came true. She was heavily criticized due to the route Cui QiChao decided to take. The high-level people in management scheduled a meeting to discuss how to fix this issue, but due to Cui QiChao’s contract fee being too expensive and the powerful lawyer representing him, they could only grit their teeth and allow the program to continue on without interference.

Story translated by Chrysanthemum Garden.

Lin Lin felt upset every time she had to review the sample video. Along with the fact that Cui QiChao refused to fall in love, he had even destroyed the most romantic place in CU. Now all the lovers that might have been able to help with his performance were driven away…

Hello, we didn’t provide you with a golden finger uncle to help you grow vegetables as you pleased, okay?? 5xaSAK

The audiences who flocked to this channel for a campus love affair were going to be stunned looking at this scene.

Lin Lin supported her forehead in her hand and stated, “Let’s just keep this in the female genre, we have to keep it in the campus category as well.”

Even if the audience complained and petitioned for it to be moved into the gourmet category, she couldn’t do anything about it. Although Cui QiChao had opened a canteen, the dishes he made were not of high quality nor were they fancy, and most were cooked by the canteen chef.

After mulling over it for a long time, she finally decided it was best to put it in the campus category as an unconventional program and hope for the best. Maybe it would be the opposite of her fears and do very well?

Anyways, even if the audience complained, the company would reply back with Cui QiChao’s lawyer’s words: as long as the entire program takes place in the campus, it is part of the campus category.

Let’s try utilizing a reverse marketing tactic, and gamble on the fate of this show.

For the sake of publicity, the cover of the program was a close-up shot of Cui QiChao’s handsome face. To add to the deception, the title was: the awakened descendant with the bloodline of an ancient monarch, parachuting to a campus in the 21st century! lUAH7F

As Lin Lin expected, once the program was promoted to the public, it shot through various platforms despite the simple announcement and attracted a large number of online users to watch it without strongly recommending it to the viewers. Most of the audiences were women due to it being placed under the female genre.

This cover contained two explosive aspects that drew others in—first was an extraordinarily handsome man, and next would be his authoritative bloodline. For someone with such a background to be in a campus, would the storyline be sweet or abusive?

Huang Tao was one of the thousands of users attracted by the cover. She had been laying in bed, bored as she searched for a new program to watch, when the cover inadvertently scrolled into her line of sight and caused her to be unable to move away.

Huang Tao’s favorite type of program was campus romance, whether it be an ancient Chinese Academy or an ancient European academy, high school or university, using the age-old trope of school bully and bullied, teacher and student… as long as the characters were good-looking, she was happy. Her favorites were especially the shows that emitted a sticky sweet feeling along with the astringency of youth. ueL0JH

But of course, the main requirement had to be that the leading actor must be extremely handsome.

The program had just been launched and was still in the process of streaming, though more than half of the episode was already played. Huang Tao almost started from the beginning, but stopped in captivity by the way Cui QiChao teased the cat on screen. He was laughing and rubbing the cat’s head with his palm and it was so gentle that everyone wanted to be the cat being caressed in his hands.

At this time, the scenery changed and became a 21st century style campus with an overhead shot. The lens moved in place for a while, then sunk, locking onto a hill.

The time seemed to be dusk, and a couple of campus lovers were walking around hand in hand. They were full of youth and enjoying the best time of their lives with each other.

The lens gently moved, and there were even lovers hugging and kissing being the tree.

Huang Tao sighed dreamily. “Wow, they’re so pure and warm.” BzC8ug

Such a sight would no longer be seen in today’s time.

But, how come the lens showed off this place? Could it be that Cui QiChao was going to date someone in the first episode?

Huang Tao watched in confusion as the protagonist appeared, leading a group of people in white uniforms up the hill, all of them carrying a variety of tools. After an unheard order, these people dispersed and started…digging?

The lovers around the hill were frightened, and just like a bunch of mandarin ducks, they fled. The warm campus-life love had instantly turned into farming. hNpm6k

“??” What’s going on? Huang Tao reached her hand out and opened up the real-time comment section.

“??” What’s going on? Huang Tao reached out her hand and opened the real-time comment barrage.

[Who am I? Where am I? What am I looking at?]

[Ah, ah, ah, am I on the wrong channel? Why? Why did he start farming again! Where can couples go on a date now that all the soil’s been upturned?? Just now, I was momentarily thinking that I could watch the scene of pure campus love!] gjJqRw

[Why are you holding hope towards something that will never happen? I don’t think the protagonist wants to fall in love at all! Campus love doesn’t exist for him!]

[No, don’t tell me this cruel fact. I can stand him farming all the time, but I can’t accept that he refuses to fall in love…]

[I haven’t closed my mouth since I opened the program for 40 minutes. This the most bizarre program I’ve ever seen in the women’s genre.]

[??? I came to see a handsome guy’s campus romance—why are you showing me that he has destroyed the holy land of love and planted vegetables in place of it!] FKfwZB

[No… did you pay attention to the small caption of the program? He’s truly has the monarch’s bloodline—fucking overbearing!]

Huang Tao found the information hard to swallow. She took a glance at the small caption mentioned in this portion of the episode—”Cui QiChao goes his own way and overbearingly runs amok in the campus”. Unless the episode itself was watched, one would simply assume that it would be filled with scenes of an overbearing president showcasing his love.

Huang Tao dragged the progress bar to the beginning. From here on, Cui QiChao has just entered the campus, and the barrage comments were still in a state of pink. When the audience saw his face, they were shouting: “I’ve fallen, I’ve fallen for him!”

Less than ten minutes later, Cui QiChao had contracted the school canteen and planted peppers in it. cYHlWw

The barrage became filled with question marks. They felt the development was a little unbelievable.

[What the hell, farming all of a sudden??]

[Excuse me, I seem to have entered the wrong channel]

Even Huang Tao wanted to scream. What about the awakened monarch’s bloodline? Why was it different from what was described? He neither wanted to be a student nor a teacher—instead, he was going to bid for the contract for the canteen to grow peppers! X3Vpto

After roughly skipping to another scene, she realized that the middle part of the episode was focused on his daily observation of growing vegetables, cooking, and teachers and students popping up to eat. They were all eating, waiting in line to have dinner, and there was not a trace of the scene that they had imagined, of the wonderful atmosphere of the campus love that had been described.

The audience were all complaining:

[This program is so poisonous, why am I still watching it.]

[I don’t know why you are still watching. But anyway, the protagonist is so handsome that I can’t stop watching it…] ZaR2cS

[I just want to know what’s next…]

[I want to curse that they have placed this program in the wrong genre, but I don’t even know what the correct genre is.]

[I came in with the heart of a young girl, but now I’m hungry.]

[Hungry +1.] YspzX1

[I’ve had three bowls of rice before this episode has even ended, thank you.]

[I’ve reported it, reported it, false labelling of genre.]

“No wonder…” Huang Tao murmured. She understood why the other audiences were so agitated after seeing the hill at the back being revamped. After watching more than half of the episode, the scene that they have all been imagining about appeared. However, in the next second, Cui QiChao took people to plant vegetables in the holy land of campus love!

Poisonous, the protagonist is really poisonous. Huang Tao couldn’t help but add the program to her favourites. yAMXRQ

Anyway, she doesn’t believe that in the span of four years, the protagonist would really farm only, and not fall in love at all!

.

In CU.

The first canteen’s behavior of occupying the holy land of campus love aroused the dissatisfaction of CU students, especially the young couples. The environment on the hill had been quiet, with many pavilions, and one could even see the sunset. It was one of the best places to have a date in CU. 2xi3yX

Now that many vegetables have been planted here by the first canteen, the atmosphere for dating had been greatly reduced. Whenever they walk here, whisper sweet nothings or kiss, there will be aunts and uncles watering vegetables around them from time to time. With this situation, how would they be in the mood to continue dating?

The first canteen was too cruel. Although they didn’t drive the students away, it was no different from a silent repellant.

The students protested collectively, posted their thoughts in the forum and on Baidu, and even wrote a letter to President Cui, and voiced their opinions through the student union. However, all means of protests were declared invalid in the end.

There was a rumour that the new boss of the first canteen had a strong background. That was why he could grow vegetables on the hill without fear. How can these ordinary students possibly compete with him? d6XsKF

What should they do? They could only turn their anger into their hunger, and eat at the first canteen.

——However, these were independent incidents. The chili oil recently supplied free of charge by the first canteen was delicious!

Because of this, some single students even said: If the first canteen dominates the hill at the back in order to grow more peppers and ensure long-term supply of chili oil in the future, they absolutely support the first canteen’s decision.

This chili oil saved many students who couldn’t get good food and had no appetite. When they drink porridge, eat noodles, or eat meals, they could add a spoonful and a half of the oil. It’s fragrant, spicy and delicious to eat with rice. dyhxTm

The only drawback is that the consumption of the oil was too fast. It is said that the chili oil was self-made with self-planted millet peppers, and there was a short supply of it. After the oil was all consumed here, on the other end, the peppers were still in the process of growing or they were still producing the oil. It would take some time for them to have new chili oil.

Therefore, the first canteen also used the purchased millet pepper to make some chili oil, but the taste of it was always one tier lower. Since that was the case, they could only make do with it.

The students supervised each other. They all know that chili oil would be consumed very quickly and that it’s even free to boot. If they meet people who unconsciously scooped more of it, people around them will come forward to criticize that person. It would even instigate an argument over people who claimed that they were helping their classmates to take some. It is generally believed that a conscientious CU student can only scoop one and a half scoop at a time.

Under the strong request of the students, the first canteen had to explain in advance which day it would provide its self-made chili oil. The pepper plant, which was not taken seriously previously, was also respected by the students now: This was the source of delicious food! 1COLVW

Some students even took the initiative to donate flower pots so that the first canteen could grow several different kinds of peppers.

At first, there were rumours that the chili oil from a canteen could be used as a substitute for The Forest of Taste. After more people had tried the chili oil, this rumour had quietly become: the first canteen was now superior, and their chili oil tastes better than The Forest of Taste’s.

Still, The Forest of Taste had many fans in the University City. At first, students from other schools thought that CU students were lying to them again. As the black history of the first canteen was too dark, if the first canteen really made progress, they would blow it’s trumpets too auspiciously.

It was not until the CU students said: Well, why don’t you try it, swipe my card to buy a portion of plain porridge, and add some free chili oil. If it’s not delicious, it’s considered my loss, okay? zSAEBR
