Chapter 74 Staff Crisis
Bei Shitao was stunned by Shen Yijin's sudden question: "Of course it is! Yijin, why are you asking that?"
"The evil spirit was sealed inside the doll. I held it in my arms for so long just now, but it didn't move. You touched it lightly, and its eyes opened. I guess someone might want you to release the evil spirit yourself." Shen Yijin said, "Didn't you tell me before that this house seemed to be sold to you by your uncle? Just now, Yi Shu also said that the people who broke in through the door were related to our family."
Shen Yijin's suspicion was well-founded, which Bei Shitao could not refute.
But when she thought about how she was being used by her family, Bei Shitao felt extremely upset.
She turned a blind eye to her uncle selling her the haunted house and did not intend to pursue the matter.
But her uncle didn't seem to intend to let her go, regardless of blood ties.
"I am indeed a member of the Bei family. My facial features are very similar to my parents, there is no doubt about that." Bei Shitao was in low spirits because she knew that she was indeed a descendant of the Bei family. That was why she was so sad when she knew that her uncle was determined to harm her.
Shen Yijin had read Bei Shitao's fortune before, so she naturally knew that there was nothing wrong with Bei Shitao's bloodline. She also couldn't understand why Bei Shitao's uncle wanted to harm her.
She wanted to calculate Bei Shitao's destiny again, but unfortunately, Bei Shitao's destiny had already changed because of her. No matter how she calculated, she could no longer calculate Bei Shitao's destiny clearly.
Chen Yijin sighed helplessly: "Taozi, don't think too much. I am here. No matter what they want to do to you, I will protect you."
A tear squeezed out of Bei Shitao's eyes. She wanted to throw herself into Chen Yijin's arms for comfort, but when she saw the doll in Chen Yijin's hand, she finally stopped where she was.
Bei Shitao is now terrified of this puppet. Just now, she just touched it lightly and the puppet opened its eyes. If she touches it accidentally again, the seal will probably be lifted.
Chen Yijin was also afraid that Bei Shitao would touch the doll again, so she added a few more seals on the doll and locked the doll in a box in her room before coming out to watch the variety show with Bei Shitao.
Bei Shitao ordered pizza for lunch. She picked up a slice of pizza and handed it to Chen Yijin: "Come and eat pizza! The squid pizza here is especially delicious. The cheese can be pulled into strings when it is delivered!"
Chen Yijin took a bite of the pizza from Bei Shitao's hand, savored it carefully and commented: "It tastes good."
Shen Yijin was already very hungry, and now that the food entered her stomach, the feeling of hunger returned immediately.
She sat next to Bei Shitao and ate pizza while watching the variety show.
Mao Xiayao's variety show this time is themed on urban treasure hunt, and the shooting mode adopted is recorded broadcast + live broadcast. The first episode will first play the recorded broadcast footage, and the ending will be where the guests receive the tasks. The program team will then introduce the next episode which will be broadcast live.
Live broadcast of variety shows is not uncommon in literary works, but there are too many problems that may arise in live broadcasts, and no program team has ever adopted this broadcast format before.
Mao Xiayao's participation in "City Treasure Hunt" is the first of its kind in China.
With all the publicity and warm-up efforts from the program team, netizens’ expectations have been raised to the maximum.
After watching the first episode, Bei Shitao has been praising the director of "City Treasure Hunt".
"This director is so amazing. Variety show live broadcasts are prone to failure. It's not that no one in the industry wants to live broadcast variety shows, but the risks are too high and everyone is afraid of messing up. Regardless of how the live broadcast will turn out, I admire his courage!"
"He gives every guest about the same amount of screen time, does not favor the capital, and is very friendly to newcomers. He does not engage in publicity, such as pulling down others, making fun of himself, or hiring Internet trolls to increase popularity. He is truly a conscientious director! There are not many directors in the industry who can do this!"
"And this director is a very good person! It was only after I invested in Yaoyao and opened a studio that I realized that the circle is even more complicated than I thought. There are so many dirty things. After hearing about it, I instantly lost interest in the entertainment industry. But this director has never participated in it. It's really rare in the entertainment industry to have such a high profile and never been involved in those dirty things!"
Chen Yijin listened to Bei Shitao's various compliments to the director, and made a few perfunctory remarks from time to time, acting as a ruthless supporting actor and not letting Bei Shitao's words fall on deaf ears.
Bei Shitao didn't understand it at first, but later she found that Chen Yijin was repeating the same few sentences over and over again, and then she realized that she was just perfunctory.
"Isn't what I said right? Why are you being so perfunctory with me?" Bei Shitao pouted in grievance. At this moment, she could completely empathize with those women on the Internet who took their boyfriends shopping for clothes. What's the difference between Shen Yijin's perfunctory way and those straight men who say that the clothes their girlfriends choose are beautiful without even raising their heads!
Shen Yijin was not interested in the director's character. She pulled back the progress bar several times and watched the same scene over and over again.
Seeing the staff member who only appeared on the screen for less than half a minute, Shen Yijin frowned slightly: "No, that director is really a good person. I was just thinking about something."
Bei Shitao leaned over to look for a while, then asked in confusion: "Is there something wrong with this staff member?"
"She doesn't look right, and something bad might have happened to her recently." Chen Yijin said, "Taozi, do you know where the next live broadcast of City Treasure Hunt will be? I'm a little worried about her."
It would have been fine if she hadn't seen it, but since she already knew that this staff member might get into trouble next, Shen Yijin couldn't just turn a blind eye.
He was not even thirty years old, and it was not worth it to lose his life for such a person.
Bei Shitao is now acting as Mao Xiayao's half-agent, and she knows all of Mao Xiayao's schedule: "The next episode will be filmed in the neighboring city X at 10 am three days later. Yijin, are you going?"
Three days later is Saturday, and the production team chose this day because they thought that more people would watch variety shows on the weekend.
But at the same time, many people go out to play on weekends, and variety shows are still shot in the city. The city is crowded with people everywhere, so the difficulty of live broadcast increases significantly.
If it weren't for Chen Yijin's serious expression, Bei Shitao would have wanted to praise the director for his courage and boldness.
"There is this plan. If I don't go, the girl may have no future." Shen Yijin pointed at the staff who flashed on the screen.
Bei Shitao was stunned: "Is it so serious? Then you have to go. Just follow Yaoyao's car in three days. I will talk to Yaoyao later."
Just watching a variety show can reveal matters of life and death. There is nothing I can say except admiration for Bei Shitao.
She knew her own limitations and didn't dare to go with Chen Yijin, so she just stayed at home and watched the live broadcast.
Three days passed in a flash, and Chen Yijin arrived at the recording site in Mao Xiayao's nanny car. When she saw the staff who came to pick them up, she raised her eyebrows.
That’s great. She doesn’t have to look for the person she wants to protect, the person will come to her doorstep.
