Chapter 259
A promotional variety show tailored for Ling Suisui
Because Ling Fei and Hao Ren were busy with their careers abroad, Ling Sui could not see them when she returned home, so she did not return to Guangdong Province, but continued to live in her large flat in the capital.
In her free time, she would visit Meng Yu's home with her handmade low-calorie snacks.
Meng Yu received Ling Suisui warmly, and then found out that he was not alone. There was a little tail following her.
Feng Li poked her head out: "Auntie, hello!"
"Hello." Meng Yu first greeted the child, then looked at Ling Suisui puzzledly.
Ling Suisui sighed in his heart and introduced the child's identity to Meng Yu.
As for how Feng Li came to her again, it was full of tricks.
First, Qi Xuan called her via video and talked to her about work. Feng Li was clamoring to be on camera, so Ling Suisui started chatting with her.
As they chatted, Feng Li said that she missed her very much and wanted Ling Suisui to take her to the amusement park. Qi Xuan scolded Feng Li harshly, saying that Ling Sui was very busy every day and how could he have so much time to play with the children?
When Teacher Qi Xuan had a cold face, even adults would tremble, let alone children. Feng Li opened her big watery eyes and apologized to Ling Suisui feeling aggrieved, and it looked like she was about to cry in the next second.
Ling Suisui couldn't bear to see the child like this, so she said a few words to smooth things over, saying that she wasn't that busy - as soon as she said this, Feng Li immediately laughed, and Qi Xuan also said, "Then please ask Ling Suisui to take care of her for a few days."
...Now that things have come to this, Ling Suisui, who has been tricked, can only accept his fate.
Damn it, if you walk by the river often, you will get your feet wet. She subconsciously underestimated the enemy just because Feng Li was still a child! She is not an ordinary child, she is a very talented actress.
After understanding the whole story, Meng Yu laughed so hard that he couldn't straighten his back. At this time, her daughter also walked out of the room, and her eyes lit up when she saw Ling Suisui.
She asked Ling Suisui for an autograph and took many photos with her. Now she is happily posting them on WeChat Moments. After a while, she brought out some cut fruits and asked Ling Suisui in a low voice if she could sign a few more, as all her good friends at school wanted them.
Ling Suisui was a little surprised: "Am I so popular among elementary school students?"
"We are also very fashionable." Meng Yu's daughter raised her head proudly, "Yaotailu is so good, the whole class has watched it."
She opened her pencil case again and showed it to Ling Suisui: "Look, I also have Jiayue's ruler and fountain pen. These are genuine ones."
Ling Suisui vaguely remembers that among the many business collaborations after the huge success of "Yaotai Lu", there were indeed stationery brands. Because there are too many business collaborations, these joint ventures only used the image authorization of the characters, and she did not shoot any materials herself.
In order to thank the elementary school student fans for their support, Ling Suisui readily agreed to sign a few more photos for her, and the signature she wrote was "Study hard and make progress every day." Meng Yu's daughter wanted to video chat with her and her classmates, but her mother stopped her and told her to go back to her room to do her summer homework.
"You can't spoil her." Meng Yu said, holding a teacup, "She asked you to video chat today, and tomorrow she asked you to pick her up from school. Children's vanity is endless. Parents should guide them correctly and not spoil them blindly."
Ling Suisui nodded humbly to show that he would accept the advice.
Wait, she's not the parent—
She turned her gaze and looked at Feng Li who was playing catch with Zhuangzhuang.
Well, during the time that she helps Teacher Qi Xuan take care of the baby, she is the child's temporary guardian and she must also pay attention to teaching by example.
Meng Yu asked her, "I heard that you are preparing a new variety show recently? Netizens are urging you to do the second season of Sui Sui You, but you are going to do a drama show."
Ling Suisui: "It's all for the movie promotion. I thought I would stay in bed for a few months, but I don't know what happened. I can't rest at all."
Meng Yu laughed when she heard this. Even though Ling Suisui sounded so helpless, she must be enjoying it and doing it willingly. Otherwise, if she has reached her position and really doesn't want to work, can anyone force her?
Ling Suisui has a strong sense of responsibility and is full of energy. If she were really locked up at home, she would probably feel uncomfortable all over.
Ling Sui talked about her own journey. She originally just wanted to find a variety show to promote "The Great Swordsman" which was released in August, but considering that the style of this movie is not so popular, what program to choose and in which direction to promote it became a problem for her to make a choice.
Television variety shows are not good, and slow variety shows are even worse. Most of the audience of the former prefer entertainment content, but Ling Suisui is unwilling to go to the latter. She never believed that variety shows labeled as slow-life were really "paid vacations." Recording such a show for two days was more tiring than filming a drama for half a month.
So, Ling Suisui finally decided to make the cakes himself. She found Xiao Zhang, who had already made several jumps in the Fruit TV industry and had a certain say and status, and talked to her about her ideas.
Xiao Zhang is indeed a professional. He tailored a program based on her needs and market conditions within a few days.
The name of the new variety show is "Please Take the Challenge, Hero", and the name itself is helping her promote the movie. The content of the program is to find a group of young actors, let them participate in closed-door fighting training, and then set up some tests in each episode to eliminate some contestants to see who can stay to the end.
Xiao Zhang initially positioned Ling Sui as a mentor, but Ling Sui felt that she only needed to be the initiator or the senior sister. She believes that the only people who are worthy of the position of "mentor" in this program are professional martial arts instructors, and she is just a student.
In this regard, Xiao Zhang fully respected Ling Suisui's ideas. Her proposal had already been reviewed internally on the platform. Although the specifications and budget were very high and a meeting would have been required to discuss it according to normal procedures, when the leader saw that the proposed guest was Ling Suisui and that they had already been agreed upon (this was the key point), he approved it without hesitation and gave it a very high priority.
Ling Sui has come in person, so what else does he need a bicycle for? Xiao Zhang has made another great contribution this time!
Meng Yu gave her an idea: "Antenna is holding a talent show for changing the shell, you might as well hold a popularity vote as well, so you can compete with them for the talent."
To be honest, if the two programs are recorded at the same time, Meng Yu believes that most young actors will choose "Hero, Please Take the Challenge" as the priority option. After all, it is still unknown whether Mo Ziqing's project will be a hit or not, but Ling Suisui at least has a hit to back him up.
The popularity of the show is one thing, but coming here might also give you the opportunity to have close contact with Ling Suisui! If you are lucky enough to receive some pointers from her and experience what it's like acting opposite her, it would be like taking a master class.
Xiao Zhang actually mentioned this point, but Ling Suisui thought it was not possible.
"I want young actors to calm down and practice fighting scenes instead of using slow motion fake moves to fool the audience. If popularity voting is added, strength will no longer be the only criterion for assessment, and they may even be marginalized."
Ling Suisui is not a saint. If she could cause trouble for Mo Ziqing, she would be happy to do so. But if she changed her original intention just to exclude her, that would be putting the cart before the horse.
"Besides, my plan is to record in a closed format for 21 days and finish it all at once. The popularity vote will definitely require filming and broadcasting at the same time, and I don't want to drag out the battle line for such a long time."
Meng Yu sighed: "When I was young, it would have been great if I had a senior like you."
Ling Suisui can make a large number of advertisers scramble to give money to the brand department just for a sponsorship opportunity, and the generous funds can solve 99% of the problems during the recording of a program.
A suitable venue, professional instructors, attentive teaching, sophisticated props... everything Xiao Zhang listed will be there.
Meng Yu sincerely hopes that these young actors who actively sent in their application forms and were successfully selected will cherish this rare opportunity.
Ling Suisui has been following the preparations for "Hero, Please Take the Challenge" these days, and occasionally takes Feng Li to the recording location for on-site inspections. Feng Li was excited when he entered the martial arts gym and started punching the sandbag.
She saw the program’s logo in many places in the martial arts gym. Although she was young, she already knew some words.
"Master, please accept it."
Feng Li read out the name of the program, then scratched his head. What does it mean? Want to fight?
She randomly picked a staff member and listened to the other party’s introduction of what variety show was going to be recorded here. After listening, her eyes lit up.
She ran to find Ling Suisui: "General, I want to record a show too, I want to be a hero too! Let them all challenge me, I will beat them all down!"
