Chapter 92 Please state the other person’s five advantages within fifteen seconds.
March 8th was the first day of recording of "Brothers and Sisters".
Yesterday morning, the eight guests recorded the opening credits in Beijing. The host, Fang Chun, is a well-known variety show host in the industry. He mainly asked some simple questions about each other's opinions and expectations for the show, and added some footage, which will probably be used to introduce personal backgrounds in the main film.
The remaining sisters surprised Jiang Huai. The elder sister was Yu Shuang, Shi Renran's former teammate, and the younger sister was Qu Miaoqing from Tang Meng... They were both connected to people he knew.
The two sisters are an actress and an idol, Sheng Mingzhao is a model, and Wei Xingzhou and his sister are up-hosts. So Chu Yuanqing is the only serious amateur.
Generally speaking, in order to ensure the ratings and not to disappoint the people in the industry, the amount of shots of amateurs will be infinitely compressed. However——
[It doesn't matter, I will sell the supplements frequently.] Jiang Huai said confidently.
In the afternoon, the group arrived at their destination, Dali, Yunnan. The accommodation arranged by the program team was a Bai ethnic group-themed homestay. Following the path paved with bluestone slabs and entering the gate, the first thing that caught their eyes was a leisurely and elegant courtyard.
It was past nine when they arrived. The night was peaceful and tranquil, with cotton trees rustling in the wind, koi swimming leisurely in the pond, and even a swing hanging from a tree. The house was a standard two-story building, with green tiles and white walls exuding a natural fragrance.
In such an environment, the pace of life will inevitably slow down, which is completely different from the urgency of a big city like Beijing. Jiang Huai has a feeling that the three weeks of recording the program will be very enjoyable.
-
Although it was early spring in March, the temperature difference between morning and evening in Yunnan was huge. It was unexpectedly cold in the early morning, and Jiang Huai really couldn't resist the temptation of the warm bed. The room was a large tatami bed structure, and there were exactly four male and female guests, who lived in two separate rooms.
He first controlled Chu Yuan to wash and rinse his mouth, and then helped his own body squeeze the toothpaste. He waited until the other two were done before he slowly got out of bed.
Sheng Mingzhi looked at him dawdling for a long time: "...I remember that when we lived in the dormitory before, you got up very quickly?"
"That's because you're all too slow. If no one moves faster, we'll be squeezed together and crash." Jiang Huai rinsed his mouth and said vaguely while bending over to wash his face, "I can only be forced to be reliable when I'm with you... But I don't have to be reliable when my brother is here."
Chu Yuanqing had just come back from sorting out his things and naturally handed him the towel. After Jiang Huai wiped his face, he gave Sheng Mingzhi a sly smile, the implication of which was obvious: My brother is much better than you!
Sheng Mingzhi just rolled his eyes in disgust when he discovered that Chu Yuanqing was accustomed to Jiang Huai's behavior and even gave him an ambiguous smile... and he just felt that the two completely different smiles were surprisingly similar to the point of being creepy.
There were only ten minutes left until the agreed time of 7:30, so Jiang Huai chose to use both his left and right brains to work. He sat in front of the dressing table and began to put on light makeup in front of the mirror with great skill, his hands moving non-stop.
Chu Yuanqing stood behind Jiang Huai and helped him comb his messy hair, then sprayed two sprays of perfume on his wrists and rubbed it on the back of Jiang Huai's neck. Based on Jiang Huai's many years of experience, this method allowed him to keep the perfume at a level that was just smellable at a social distance, which was perfect.
Sheng Mingzhi watched from the side and felt that the atmosphere between the two people was really weird, as if they had an invisible barrier that outsiders could not enter, and they themselves could not get out. Wei Xingzhou had gone to an unknown place, and he was the only one left in the room, looking out of place.
Just then he received a message from Sheng Mingzhao asking him to send a curling iron, so he went out decisively. Sheng Mingzhi was confused: Is it because they are not related by blood, distance creates beauty, so they can get along so well?
On the way, he accidentally discovered that Qu Miaoqing was hiding under the eaves alone, and she found a blind spot to make a phone call secretly: "I really regret participating in this program. I feel sick when I see Yu Shuang's face. I haven't seen her for two years. She is really more pretentious than before..."
Sheng Mingzhi pretended not to hear and walked away as if nothing had happened. It seemed that it was not a blood relationship issue, and he fell into deeper contemplation: What was the reason?
"You're too slow." Sheng Mingzhao's voice brought him back to reality. "My perfume seems to be with you too? Can you get it for me?"
Sheng Mingzhi: "...Okay, sister."
When recording a show, he still had to show some affection between brother and sister. It wasn't a big deal to give in to his sister a little, it was only three weeks, Sheng Mingzhi thought patiently.
Unfortunately, he only endured it for half an hour.
In the middle of the courtyard stood a huge bamboo table and four chairs, which were filled with various Yunnan-style cross-bridge rice noodles, and the pot was still steaming.
...I’m hungry, the eight people sitting on the small benches thought in unison.
It was already past nine o'clock when we arrived yesterday. We ate dinner in a hurry, which was nothing compared to the dazzling array of breakfast on the table now.
"How is it? It looks rich, right?" Fang Chun said excitedly.
After she vividly described the detailed background of Cross-Bridge Rice Noodles, she changed the subject: "But before we eat, we still have to complete the breakfast challenge."
"Then our breakfast today is——"
"Please tell me five good points about your partner within 15 seconds." Fang Chun said with a smile, "Which group will go first?"
"It's too easy!" Sheng Mingzhao was extremely confident and dragged Sheng Mingzhi forward as the first group to accept the challenge.
"He's handsome." She said without hesitation, and then fell into silence for ten seconds, "...Is your sister me?"
How can I not even think of three in fifteen seconds? This is not right!
Fang Chun plucked the dragon head sanxian regretfully: "Think about it again. What if you know it?"
"Good-looking. Good at asking for help." Sheng Mingzhi urgently brainstormed, "A lot of things... No, no, I love to share. Occasionally reliable. I am your younger brother."
"You call this an advantage?!" Sheng Mingzhao slapped him on the head, and Sheng Mingzhi slapped his forehead twice in disdain: "Which one doesn't count?"
"My younger brother doesn't count." Fang Chun refuted, "There are many things, just think about it in your mind, don't say it out loud."
Sheng Mingzhao realized something was wrong belatedly, and Sheng Mingzhi was delighted to have his second brain exploded.
The sisters group was the second to go on stage. The brother and sister next to them were thinking with their chins supported tacitly. They were twins as expected, their thinking postures were exactly the same.
Jiang Huai stared at the bluestone road beneath his feet, tilted his foot to the side and poked Chu Yuanqing next to him.
Unlike Yu Lan who would carefully select clothes when buying them, he was very casual when buying casual clothes for Chu Yuanqing - after all, Chu Yuanqing didn't have many days off from work - and he would usually buy one more when buying clothes for himself.
The two people's shoes of the same style but different colors were placed next to each other, which looked very harmonious. Jiang Huai thought it was fun and manipulated Chu Yuanqing to poke back. The two feet poked back and forth, and Jiang Huai counted in his mind.
Yu Shuang successfully completed the challenge and sat down at the table leisurely, while Qu Miaoqing sat back on the small stool alone.
Jiang Huai finished his calculations, tilted his head towards Chu Yuanqing, and used his eyes to ask himself if he had made up his mind. Chu Yuanqing nodded with determination, so Jiang Huai raised his hand: "We are ready too!"
"Handsome, tall, capable at work, very patient, and loves me very much." Jiang Huai said in one breath, his eyes sparkling - rice noodles are coming! Delicious cross-bridge rice noodles are coming!
"Nice!" Fang Chun nodded with satisfaction. "By the way, the two of you can't repeat what you said. Xiaochu, pay attention."
...Ah? Can't repeat?
Jiang Huai opened his eyes wide: Why does it feel like the rules are targeting him, who has to play two roles?
In a flash, a magnificent and fantastic universe seemed to appear before his eyes, with shining stars and various beautiful stars and nebulae... However, the black hole swallowed up everything in the universe.
During these few seconds of buffer time, Jiang Huai couldn't think of any other advantages he had.
[The Emperor of Gay.] 819 said while watching the fun.
...What a shitty AI! All they think about is being gay! They should really give 819 some Chinese medicine!
However, the four words "The Gay Emperor" kept echoing in his mind and began to reproduce at an alarming rate - Jiang Huai's originally empty brain was almost immediately dominated by these four words.
He had no choice but to follow the story of the gay emperor. Chu Yuanqing spoke calmly, seemingly calmly and leisurely, but in fact he was deliberately stalling for time: "He has a good personality and can quickly get along with people he just met. He has been gentle and polite to everyone since he was a child--"
Fifteen seconds was only enough for Chu Yuanqing to finish talking about Jiang Huai's two advantages.
It's okay. It's better to be unable to finish the explanation than Sheng Mingzhao can only think of "You are handsome and I am your sister", which sounds much more affectionate, Jiang Huai thought with relief.
"Just mention five advantages. No specific arguments are needed. You can just think about it in your mind." The sad thumping sound rang out again. Fang Chun shook his head and plucked the dragon head sanxian: "Is this an industrial disease for lawyers?"
[It is a disease of the industry that sells corrupt emperors.] 819 is talking too much again.
Jiang Huai originally thought that Chu Yuanqing would not be able to have breakfast today, but he did not expect that there is always someone better than you, and he could actually wait until the second round.
The Gay Emperor successfully took the last spot by being well-behaved, sincere, polite, respectful, and good at singing and dancing.
The production team would not really starve the guests and not let them eat. If they did so, they would probably be beaten and kicked by angry fans during the broadcast, but the remaining few would have to eat nothing but rice noodles.
Jiang Huai watched Sheng Mingzhao take the fish fillet from Sheng Mingzhi's bowl on his own initiative, and Yu Shuang tried to add more food to Qu Miaoqing but was stopped by a pair of chopsticks. He felt a little guilty.
After all, in a sense, he ate two portions by himself. Jiang Huai pushed the bowl over and said, "You guys eat. My brother and I can just have one portion."
"Thank you." Wei Xingzhou did not refuse. His sister next to him was very concerned about Jiang Huai. Her eyes were expectant and concerned: "Do you have enough to eat?"
"That's enough." Jiang Huai smiled at her, and Chu Yuanqing quietly put several chopsticks into his bowl.
"Great!" Wei Xingyao cheered softly.
Wei Xingzhou elbowed her in a way that seemed to be secret but was actually discovered by everyone. The two of them exchanged glances. Jiang Huai couldn't understand it at all, but always felt that it had something to do with him.
...I don’t understand, so I’d better eat well. He gave up thinking.
