Su Zhou rushed back from the concert and immediately went to the panda enclosure to check on the panda cubs.
As expected, the national treasures were treated very well there.
Many tourists from nearby areas come specifically to see panda cubs. Few creatures can be cute from cubs to adults; the cuteness of panda cubs and adults is completely different. Yet, despite not having any special attributes, pandas are just as popular as Ahei (a famous Chinese panda), proving that pandas truly are pandas.
After finishing her interaction with Lingling, Su Zhou opened her phone and found a brand new verification message.
"Xinyi Media?" Su Zhou looked at the other party's profile picture, completely confused. She had no connection with celebrities in the entertainment industry. While other peers were busy hiring celebrities to endorse their products, her own chain stores had never hired any celebrities. If Su Yunhai hadn't given her the concert tickets today, she probably wouldn't have gone to the concert. Although confused, she still chose to agree.
Perhaps they came specifically to express their gratitude because of today's accident?
Countless thoughts flashed through my mind in an instant. After accepting the friend request, the other party immediately popped up a voice call.
"Hello, are you Director Su of Wanling Zoo? I'm from Xinyi Media, um... I'm director Ning An. Perhaps you've heard of a variety show called 'Rainbow Realm'?" The other person's voice was very polite. After Su Zhou answered the phone, they immediately explained their purpose. "It's like this, your zoo has a very nice environment. Fushan is truly a place blessed with beautiful scenery and natural beauty. No wonder the animals are much more energetic than those in other zoos. We'd like to rent your zoo as the filming location for our new variety show. Of course, it won't interfere with your business. You can continue operating, and we'll also pay you for the venue rental."
"Rainbow Realm," a name Su Zhou has heard of, is a currently popular healing travel variety show that helps people find themselves in a fast-paced life. It is said that any frame of the empty shots can be used as wallpaper, and it has a very loyal audience.
As the zoo director, Su Zhou has many more things to think about.
The guests are all celebrities with many fans. Will the arrival of celebrities cause any accidents, such as stampedes? Will it have any impact on the zoo's environment? Or will it happen again like what happened today, where a crazed fan threw sulfuric acid? Fortunately, both the person who threw the acid and the person who threw it reacted quickly. If highly corrosive concentrated sulfuric acid were thrown directly onto someone, they would probably suffer severe burns on the spot.
"The rental fee is 200,000 per day. Would you like to consider it? It takes about a week to record one episode." The other party spoke up when Su Zhou didn't respond immediately.
"System, should this be included in the zoo's accounts?" Su Zhou asked absentmindedly. The amount quoted by the other party was just a string of numbers to her and didn't attract much attention. But the subsequent effects of the program were immeasurable.
The previously popular food documentary series "A Bite of China" popularized local cuisines and kitchenware, while "Rainbow Land" transformed many underdeveloped and remote areas into tourist destinations. Even if a local zoo appears to be thriving with upgraded facilities, the limited variety of animals and lack of engaging experiences can make it less appealing.
The animals are more famous than the zoo itself; to put it bluntly, Ahei is more famous online than she is.
[Forget it. 】
A new message appeared on the Wanling APP interface, which was about the collaboration with the program team.
With the system's approval, Su Zhou didn't hesitate. The recording of the program could be staggered; for example, it could be recorded in the morning when there were fewer people, and it could be open for business in the afternoon when there were more people. Su Zhou was really worried that the live broadcast format would cause the fans of these celebrities to come directly here. She carefully considered and nodded, saying, "Okay, but as you know, the zoo receives visitors every day, so there will definitely be scheduling conflicts. Also, having too many fans of the celebrities will cause some impact."
“You’re right.” Ning An nodded.
Su Zhou continued, "Therefore, I have two suggestions: the zoo can provide half a day for your live broadcast, and the zoo can operate normally for the rest of the day. Otherwise, I think the zoo's operation should prioritize the animals and visitors."
Although it's a live variety show, it's impossible to record for seven consecutive days.
Otherwise, it would infringe on the artists' privacy. Ning An thought for a while and continued to bargain: "Then can we film some scenes inside the zoo at other times? Indoor scenes that won't affect the zoo's operation. We guarantee that there will be absolutely no accidents."
The other party spoke with absolute certainty, and Su Zhou, considering the reputation of the variety show, finally nodded and agreed to the matter.
After hanging up the phone, Su Zhou stretched and scrolled through her phone for a while.
Five of the top ten trending topics were about Xie Chi's concert, with almost every major marketing account recounting the unexpected incident that occurred at the concert.
[Mianmian Little Rabbit Candy: I was there, and the situation was absolutely terrifying! Thank goodness Xiao Chi is alright, lol.]
[Don't eat my mid-lane minions: Has anyone noticed the girl who saved Xie Chi today? Her figure looks like a supermodel from behind. Can someone decode this? She looks so familiar.]
[FireFireLittleOne: I feel... this pretty girl looks a bit like a little internet celebrity on the music chart. (Picture) (Picture) Do they look alike in the comparison?]
The screenshot was a bit blurry. Su Zhou originally just wanted to gossip, but after zooming in on the photo, she was shocked to realize that she was the one being gossiped about. The person in the photo was clearly herself, and... when did she become a minor internet celebrity?
The social media account was originally intended for daily posting, and the good looks led to a large following.
My roommate, who's a big fan of celebrities, once solemnly explained in the dorm: "To be honest, among idols who are so heavily influenced by fandom, Xie Chi's fandom is the most terrifying I've ever seen. It's mainly because Xie Chi's fans are like a religion, infinitely deifying him. I do admit that Xie Chi is good-looking, but once I accidentally entered his fandom and it seemed really crazy. Any female should never get close to Xie Chi, or you'll really be unlucky. Those little fangirls will tear you apart."
Su Zhou didn't know why she suddenly thought of that sentence, but when she saw herself at the concert and compared the photos she posted on her social media account, she felt her heart was about to jump out of her chest.
It wasn't fear.
An indescribable feeling.
The pinkish-purple light shone only from behind, revealing a tall, slender young man with distinctly parted hair and an incredibly handsome profile. Even from behind, one could almost imagine the strange and world-weary look on his face.
