The agricultural DNA engraved in China's bones made me chase the first season with great interest. I heard that Amazon has renewed the second season, and I am happy.
Unlike Li Ziqi's Tao Yuanming-style pastoral life, in the British agricultural documentary filmed by Amazon and the orangutan, we can see how the British, an old capitalist country, is under less favorable geographical conditions and temperature and climate conditions. Developed its own set of modern agricultural paradigms. The specific background is a super rich second generation plus comedian (doge) Clarkson with a very large and well-set private farm. He is getting old and decides to return to his private farm and rebuild it with his own hands to create a A new vision.
The story line probably follows the growth cycle of crops, from sowing - fertilizing - maintenance - harvesting - selling. For more than 8 months, Clarkson has been experimenting with his new ideas on this vast farm. Although there have been many setbacks, although God is not beautiful, and despite the outbreak of the epidemic, the final result is that we can still see nature. The kindness of nature - hard work will pay off in the end. Because the wheat they grow is highly rated, the protein content is the highest quality level; lamb, fish, rapeseed, honey, etc. also have a good harvest (considering extreme weather conditions, excluding failed horseradish )
But does the show really present that code in a completely fair way? Or did he hide some real but brutal narrative in his edits to create a happy ending for the audience?
There is such a detail in the original film, when Clarkson and his girlfriend fish in the pond to sell to the local bar in the final episode. I noticed their very amateurish way of fishing, holding a short and clumsy fishing net on the shore, one person spreading the feed, and the other directly netting. The first person to fish was Clarkson. It is conceivable that this method will definitely not work. No fish is stupid enough to fall into this trap.
However, after an editing point, the picture turned into his girlfriend fishing for fish, and the net went down, and there were really several fish in it.
In this way, the effect of the program is there. But I started to have doubts from this detail, and it spread to the distrust of the whole show, is it possible that behind every neglected part of the editing, there may be the show team or kelab and others helping, in short, this The effort doesn't have to be Clarkson alone, and it doesn't have to be mere human effort, and I don't want to continue to let my suspicions prevail.
Just stop here, I want to believe that in the natural world, hard work pays off. =)
