588 Section 588 The Legendary Provence (1)
At the same time, a plane landed at the airport in Provence in the south of France.
As soon as he got off the plane, before he got out of the airport, Xin Ran took a sticky corn cob and explained there with emotion: "Welcome to Damei Wuyuan, a sea of rape flowers of 10,000 acres - welcome to ......"
Shen Su frowned speechlessly, reached out and patted Xin Ran's head, "Don't make trouble!"
Now that you're here, of course, you have to see the lavender fields first. Arrive in the morning, rest for the morning and drive to the Valenço area in the afternoon.
Valenço's lavender field is said to be the largest in Provence. It is also the filming location of many film and television dramas, including Qiong Yao's name of the same name. In fact, Valenço is a small village, and lavender fields are scattered all over the surrounding fields.
In July, it's time for lavender to bloom.
As soon as you enter the area of Valenço, you will see endless lavender fields on the side of the road, patches and clusters of lavender, thriving, stretching to the small hills in the distance, like a sea of purple, beautiful and spectacular.
They continued to drive in the direction of the village of Valenço, where they saw a number of tourist buses stopping at some lavender fields.
In order to ensure the smooth shooting and avoid the tour group, they had to drive through the village and deep into the no-man's land.
The best lavender fields are actually on the high-altitude mountains, so I drove all the way to the mountains. The road up the hill is getting rougher and more rugged, potholes, and the road is getting narrower and narrower, with a maximum of two cars to pass. Xin Ran looked at the winding mountain road that seemed to be able to roll down at any time, and he still had a toothache......
Thankfully, the hard work was not in vain. The further the vehicle goes up the hill and there is no longer any trace of the tourist bus, the more beautiful the flower field becomes. The branches are thick, the flowers are full, and they seem to be purer in color.
Finally, the photographer Tony felt that he could do it, and the local ground driver hired by the magazine parked the car on the side of the road.
As soon as they got out of the car, they smelled the fresh and faint scent of lavender.
There were a lot of bees flying around in the flower field, but seeing such a beautiful and spectacular scene, Xin Ran had already taken Shen Su's hand and rushed to the flower field desperately.
"It used to be a purple dream, a gorgeous sea of purple. In my imagination, under the bright sunshine, the breeze blows, and the persistent bunches of lavender swaying in the wind. I wore a white shirt and walked with him on the purple ridge, holding hands......"
Xin Ran stretched out her hand to pick up a wisp of wind that seemed to be light purple, and said with heartfelt emotion: "Provence, what a distant, strange, and familiar place this is! In my imagination, she is mysterious, romantic, and natural." When I was finally able to get up close and personal with her, she gave me the feeling that it was ancient, fragrant, and free!"
Then prepare the machine, choose the camera position, and start today's shooting.
The brand's new products of the season are very tropical and gorgeous. Dolce&Gabbana's signature romantic prints are filled with flowers, fish, pasta and more, with delicate lace, intricate embroidery, floral tiaras, dazzling sequins and a variety of shimmering gold jewellery that captivates.
Chamomile, roses, sunflowers and other flowers and plants, and pineapples and other fresh fruits, are not hesitating to print and dye on shirts, jackets, and even suits, and the charming floral and fruity fragrance of elegance lingers for a long time.
Xin Ran changed into a black shirt printed with pineapple (don't laugh, it's really pineapple), sat on the ground, wore board shoes and played the guitar, and talked to Shen Su about his childhood.
Shen Su was wearing an ordinary white shirt and light gray jeans, and in the light purple lavender field, he looked very clean, pure and ethereal.
It's just that what is Xin Ran singing?
"Come on, I'm a quick pineapple
Lolo Lo Lo ......
Come on, I'm a strawberry
Berry Berry Berry Berry ......"
Shen Su couldn't listen to it anymore after listening to two sentences, he almost squirted, and couldn't help jumping up to knock Xin Ran's head.
Xin Ran turned around and ran, he had long hands and long feet, but with a guitar in his hand, of course he couldn't run fast.
The two of them ran against the light among the purple flowers, looking like literary and artistic youths who fell in love. This time, however, they were holding Cinderella's script (The Fog......
Kiddingly, the theme of this issue is: Stealth. Those feelings that can never be put into the mouth...... and the frank and enthusiastic clothing on the body, forming a strange collision effect.
The sun was setting, and in the endless lavender fields and golden sunlight, they sat on the ridges, and they all fell asleep. After a while, Shen Su woke up first, turned his head to look at Xin Ran, and unconsciously noticed that the green tendons on his neck were faintly popping out, and subconsciously said, "Your arteries are beating so obviously......
Xin Ran also woke up, heard his words, looked down at his neck for a while, suddenly reached out and touched it, and said, "Yours is also obvious." Your skin is so white that it seems to be ...... Blood vessels can also be seen. ”
Then Shen Su was stunned, and Xin Ran was also stunned.
The narration is: "We haven't been together, but the time I spent with him is my best memory." ”
But Shen Su's psychological os is: Hey, there is no action script in this action, who asked you to stretch out your hand?
From the lavender fields, we head out to the towns of France.
Arles is one of the three main tourist destinations in Provence, all three of which are easily accessible, and most tourists to Provence choose to stay in the relatively famous Avignon. But for the sake of shooting, the magazine chose the more tranquil, ancient and delicate Arles, lavender fields, which is just one of the stops.
The next day, we went to the town of Arles.
Arles is smaller in size and narrower in its streets. In this small town, you don't seem to have the urge to drive either. Because the alleys here are zigzag and crisscrossed with each other. Each one is old and has its own story. At first glance, it seems to be just an ordinary European town, and only when you walk slowly in it, slowly savoring it, will you have some different feelings.
There are no crowded tour groups and no lively pedestrian streets. But it has countless cultural monuments, such as the ancient hippodrome, the ancient theater, the ancient Roman cloister market, the Van Gogh gardens, and the ancient churches...... Even in the quaint alleys of Arles, you'll occasionally find some atmospheric bars or artsy restaurants.
After checking into the hotel and settling in, it was almost eleven o'clock. Before today's filming started, Xin Ran took Shen Su out to find something delicious.
The closer France gets to the south, the hotter it gets, and the temperature in Arles is already high in early July, but fortunately, even outdoors, it is much cooler to hide under the shade of trees.
Not far from the hotel, you will see a small open-air square full of dining tables. Although the sun is fierce at noon, the small square is shaded by a few tall plane trees, which is quite pleasant.
In fact, there are several restaurants here, and the tables are arranged in small squares, and different restaurants are distinguished by different colored tablecloths, sun umbrellas or chairs. Xin Ran chose a house that seemed to have the most people, no way, Shen Su was most concerned about taste, this situation was not the time to pursue the atmosphere......
I heard that when you come to Provence, one of the must-eat dishes is a dish of aioli. It is made with egg yolk, garlic and olive oil as the main ingredients, and it is delicious and suitable for vegetables or boiled seafood, especially in Provence.
But for the two of them, it seems that this taste is a bit heavy, and Shen Su can't appreciate it, Xin Ran can only give an official evaluation: It's really interesting......
On the recommendation of the waiter, I ordered the famous local ouzo. It is carefully refined with a variety of spices such as anise, chervish, etc., and there is also a large amount of absinthe. It is said that this liquor is very popular in the south of France, as well as in European countries. After the waiter served the wine, he did not leave, but diluted them with a small amount of water, and watched the original colorless wine slowly turn milky white, no matter what the taste was, it was still quite interesting......
The main dish I ordered was beef stew and rice, and the meat of the beef was smooth and tender, and it tasted good.
Then there's a dish of grilled halibut with a Provençal specialty. The meat is delicate, the taste is good, and the appearance is also beautiful.
It can also be eaten with tapenade from Provence. Finely chop garlic and anchovies, add capers, lemon juice, thyme, mint and other ingredients, beat well, pour olive oil, and put pepper to make it, it has a delicious and unique taste.
There is also the Provençal stew, Xin Ran ordered it because it was kind when he heard the name, and it reminded people of the Northeast stew. A variety of ingredients are mixed together and simmered, and the taste is surprisingly great.
Finally, the fish soup at the end, the fish soup here is very delicious, with good olive oil, fried chives, tomatoes, garlic, etc., add some bay leaves, and then put some saffron to increase the pigment, it is a street food that must be tasted when you come to Provence.
Because there are many restaurants here, I simply chose the scene here for the afternoon shooting.
Shen Su went to work in a restaurant in the summer, the kind he opened himself.
In the morning, he was wearing a restaurant uniform, sweating profusely on the second floor.
The young master of this family walked in and suddenly hugged him from behind, "It's hard work......
Shen Su was stunned, still holding a mop in his hand! His heart was warm, but there was something strange.
Sometimes, guests who come here will say to Shen Su: "As soon as we talk to you, that boy stares at us, does he like you?" 166 Reading Network
