Chapter 123: Crazy Criticism (Part 2)
Starting from the second day of the broadcast, the live broadcast time of "Reverse Supermodel" lasted from six in the morning to six in the evening, a full twelve hours.
Yesterday, the participating models just checked into the villa, got to know each other, and packed their luggage, so there wasn't much to see.
To the general public, these people were more like amateurs than models. The number of people watching the live broadcast rose sharply after Luo Qinglin accidentally entered the camera, but dropped sharply after noon and hit the bottom.
It was not until dinner time that Mode suddenly released the twin photos that Qu Man shot for La Pluie. Qu Man herself also reposted the Weibo to promote Qin Xiaoxi and the "reverse supermodel".
Many people are asking, who is the model partnering with Qu Man? You must know all her information within three minutes!
After learning that the model's name was Qin Xiaoxi and that she was participating in a variety show, the popularity of the "reverse supermodel" rose slightly, and many comments from Ji Zai flooded the official blog.
[Qin Xiaoxi is a seeded player, right?] 】
[I bet ten cents and the final champion is Qin Xiaoxi.] 】
[I'll take one.] 】【I follow! 】
[Will Qu Man come to "Reverse Supermodel"? I want to see them in the same frame. 】
[Both sisters are beautiful in their own way, don’t just blindly criticize them! 】
[Didn’t you notice that the photographer of this blockbuster is Luo Qinglin? 】
[Oh shit!] It’s really my sister-in-law! 】
......
Taking advantage of Qu Man's popularity, the program attracted a large number of viewers on the second day of its launch.
At noon, Luo Qinglin put on a thin layer of foundation, changed into a well-fitting suit, and appeared on stage with JL, who had arrived late.
Facing cameras from all directions, Luo Qinglin felt a little nervous, fearing that he would say something wrong or make a bad expression that would be captured by netizens.
Fortunately, JL held his arm the whole time and patted the back of Luo Qinglin's hand from time to time to make him relax, so nothing went wrong.
When Luo Qinglin appeared, the comments were harmonious, with only a few doubts occasionally floating by, which were nothing more than questioning whether Luo Qinglin was incompetent and could not take on the position of shooting blockbuster movies.
When Jiang Yanyu and Bai Shengyun appeared, netizens attacked them crazily as if they had eaten a bomb.
[Can this kind of person really be a mentor?] 】
[Bai Shengyun dares to call others sissy, he himself looks like a sissy, ugh! 】
[When will Jiang Yanyu retire?] 】
[It's disgusting that straight men who are gay are still in the circle. 】
Occasionally, some CP fans would reply, "Sister-in-law is not a straight man, can Mengnan get out?" 】, were picked up and scolded back by the army of Dream Man 1.
The internet is filled with smoke of war, and reality is not at peace either.
The team list had been compiled long ago, and the drawing of lots was just a formality. After the drawing of lots, the instructor took the team members to their team's room to chat and get to know each other.
The live broadcast room is divided into two parts, broadcasting the images of the two rooms separately.
JL doesn't speak Chinese and only occasionally says a few words following the simultaneous interpretation. Most of the time, it was Luo Qinglin who warmed up the atmosphere.
In contrast to Jiang Yanyu's team, only Chu Shiyi can compete with Qin Xiaoxi. The remaining contestants even include inexperienced amateurs, a single mother, two college students and internet celebrity models.
Chu Shiyi is the same as in the photo, with a very cold temperament, a pair of phoenix eyes, and she never talks much. She only answers one sentence when Luo Qinglin asks one.
The two college students, Lin Xin and Duan Tianwei, were of similar age and outgoing personality, so they got to know each other yesterday and stayed together when they were assigned rooms at night.
Single mother Shan Qiu was always timid, not daring to look at the camera or make eye contact with Luo Qinglin, while Olivia beside her kept touching up her makeup in the mirror, interrupting Luo Qinglin from time to time.
Olivia is Chinese, but because she has lived abroad for a long time and does not want to reveal her real name, she insisted on participating in the competition under the name Olivia.
"Have you figured out the theme of tomorrow's shooting?" After completing the process of introducing each other, Luo Qinglin began to ask him the questions that concerned him most.
Chu Shiyi was about to speak when Olivia interrupted and said, "Do we have to go into the water to shoot? I can't swim, can we shoot on the shore?"
Being interrupted, Chu Shiyi frowned slightly and said coldly: "I will follow your instructions, no problem."
Lin Xin and Duan Tianwei nodded and said it was no problem.
Shan Qiu said timidly, "I, I can't swim either."
The information did not mention whether some of the players could swim. Luo Qinglin did not expect that there were two people on the team who could not go into the water.
"It's okay, don't be afraid," Luo Qinglin said in a gentle voice, "Not everyone needs to go into the water. Let's discuss the topic first, divide the tasks, and then everyone can go back and digest it and adjust their state."
Luo Qinglin's team was more harmonious and less interesting, so the number of spectators dropped sharply and they all flocked to Jiang Yanyu's side.
Qin Xiaoxi felt uncomfortable being assigned to this team.
Yesterday, everyone had a good relationship, but after the big movie of her and Qu Man was released, the way everyone looked at her changed obviously.
Having seen the world of pleasure before, Qin Xiaoxi knew that these looks were filled with jealousy, disdain and superficial flattery.
To make matters worse, that idiot Bai Shengyun actually asked everyone to address each other by their numbers and not to introduce themselves to save time.
She was assigned number 1, and the rest were ranked in order of height from tallest to shortest, with the shortest being number 5.
Qin Xiaoxi never thought that there would come a day when she would be hated just for her height. The way No. 5 looked at her was as if he was a fish on a chopping board, wishing to rip out her tendons and skin her.
As a photography instructor, Bai Shengyun did not communicate the theme with the models in advance. Instead, he started talking about the taboos of his job and asked everyone to cooperate with him.
Jiang Yanyu was like a spectator watching a play, saying some nonsense from time to time, and most of the time leaving Bai Shengyun alone to perform.
The barrage of comments had already exploded into a mess.
[I can’t stand it anymore. Someone come and take this Bai guy away.] 】
[Why was my brother assigned to the same team with him? I want to see my brother and sister-in-law together 555】
[It’s so funny. Look at the expression of No. 5, hahahahahaha.] 】
[Qin Xiaoxi is really miserable being assigned to this group.] 】
In the end, Luo Qinglin had already discussed and prepared, but no one in the audience cared. Only some of Luo Qinglin's dream male fans were spamming [Luo Luo is so serious] [Luo Luo is so cute] in the barrage.
Bai Shengyun had not prepared anything, and the audience could not remember the model's name, but the number of viewers was still high. They all came to see what "good things" this weirdo Bai Shengyun did and what "good words" he said.
Live broadcast is much more tiring than recorded broadcast, and there is no rest during the long hours.
In the evening, the contestants returned to the villa to continue the live broadcast, while Luo Qinglin left work with a half-hoarse voice, while Bai Shengyun and Jiang Yanyu were extremely free.
JL didn’t get enough rest because of the flight delay, so after saying goodbye to Luo Qinglin, he took a car back to the hotel to rest.
Outside the camera, Gu Nanan and Shen Yin were standing there waiting, Qi Lin was communicating with the makeup artist of the program crew, and Xiao Ruxuan was nowhere to be seen. It was obvious that she had secretly disguised herself as a staff member and ran to Qin Xiaoxi's side.
Seeing Luo Qinglin coming out, Gu Nan'an quickly handed him the warm water, "Brother Qinglin, drink some water quickly, your voice is hoarse."
Luo Qinglin took the water, gulped down a big gulp, and asked: "Have you all eaten? Are you hungry?"
Just as Gu Nanan was about to say “I haven’t eaten yet, I’m very hungry”, Shen Yin took out a large soup pot from his backpack, which was bigger than the pot containing Ophiopogon japonicus and Adenophora Root soup last time.
"Brother Qinglin, go back and rest quickly." Shen Yin stuffed the soup into Luo Qinglin's hands.
Do you need to make soup when you come to Hatakawa Island?
The warmth of the soup spread to his palms. Luo Qinglin asked in surprise, "Is this the soup you made today?"
"He got up very early this morning and made a lot of noise!" Gu Nanan complained.
The soup felt heavy in his hand. Luo Qinglin felt that the thought was too much, so he handed the soup back. "Thank you, but I don't plan to go back to the B&B directly. I plan to go for a walk on the beach first. You take the soup back and I'll drink it later."
"You don't have to waste time making soup in the future," Luo Qinglin said softly, "You are a photography assistant, you don't have to do these chores."
Shen Yin held the soup pot tightly, gritted his teeth for a moment, then let go, handed the pot to Gu Nan'an, and asked, "Gu Nan'an, take the soup back, I'll go to the beach with you, okay?"
Seeing Luo Qinglin hesitate, Shen Yin said again: "It's not safe for you to go out alone. Brother Jiang will be worried."
Luo Qinglin hesitated for a moment, and felt that what Shen Yin said made sense. Besides, he had just rejected Shen Yin's soup, so it was not easy to refuse again, so he agreed.
"You go back with Qilin later, don't leave her alone." Luo Qinglin instructed Gu Nanan.
The shooting site is not far from the beach and can be reached in a few minutes' walk.
He originally wanted to go to the beach to relax and take some photos of the empty scenery, but Shen Yin was following him, and Luo Qinglin was embarrassed to leave him alone and just take photos on his own.
After walking for a while in silence, Luo Qinglin remembered that Shen Yin had just graduated from London Media this year and was younger than him and Jiang Yanyu, so he asked, "Xiao Yin, why did you want to be my assistant?"
"I want to return to my country, but I have never lived here, so I want to find a simple job and adapt for a while," Shen Yin said.
"What about the future? What kind of job do you want to do?" Luo Qinglin always felt that Shen Yin should not just be an assistant, as it was a waste of his talent.
"I... haven't thought about it yet. I want to do my assistant job first, and then think about other things."
It rained last night, so Pokawa Island is not as hot as when I first arrived. The sea breeze has become cool and very comfortable.
The red sun above the sea dyed the clouds light pink. Luo Qinglin looked at the scenery and his tired mood became better.
"That's fine," Luo Qinglin raised his hands and stretched his muscles towards the setting sun, feeling relaxed and at ease. "Just tell me what you think, and treat me like Jiang Yanyu, just like your brother. You're welcome."
The word "brother" now sounded extremely harsh to Shen Yin's ears.
Shen Yin raised his glasses to hide the gleam in his eyes, and asked with a smile: "Brother Qinglin, when did you get together with Brother Jiang?"
Hearing this, Luo Qinglin paused. Shen Yin continued, "I know you had a contract before. Don't be nervous. I won't tell anyone."
Luo Qinglin was relieved, his face was a little red, and he smiled awkwardly, "Two weeks ago, that was the day I got sick."
"The day after I had dinner with my mother?"
"yes."
Shen Yin looked at the seagulls that were disturbed by the children and flew up in a hurry in the distance. He dug his left thumb into his palm and said, "I knew you would be together."
Luo Qinglin smiled shyly and changed the subject: "Don't talk about me, how is the person you like?"
"The person I like doesn't like me." Shen Yin smiled self-deprecatingly, with a hint of helplessness on his lips.
"Why? Did she reject you?" Luo Qinglin asked.
"No, I know very well that he won't like me. He only treats me as a younger brother." Shen Yin said.
younger brother?
Shen Yin's taste is actually mature older sisters?
Luo Qinglin thought for a moment and said carefully: "Maybe she prefers older people? How about you try to dress more maturely?"
Shen Yin stopped, turned around and asked steadily, "Do you prefer me to dress more maturely?"
"It's not me," Luo Qinglin waved his hand quickly, "It's just that if you were a little more mature when facing her, maybe she would look at you in a new light and wouldn't treat you as a younger brother anymore."
"Really?" Shen Yin lowered his head, continued walking forward, and said absentmindedly, "Then I'll try."
The atmosphere was a bit awkward.
Luo Qinglin thought that he shouldn't have brought up this topic. He had just started a relationship and had no ability to give advice to others.
"I was just talking nonsense. You should pursue her according to your own ideas." Luo Qinglin said cautiously.
Shen Yin forced a smile and replied, "It's okay, thank you for your advice."
Clearly sensing that Shen Yin was in a bad mood, Luo Qinglin stopped talking, fearing to upset him.
After walking along the coastline for a while, Shen Yin asked again: "Brother Qinglin, I want to ask, how did Brother Jiang pursue you at that time?"
"he......"
Luo Qinglin felt that the way a vixen pursues people was not universal, and that teaching it to others would only harm others, so he replied, "He didn't pursue me. I liked him from the first sight."
"No wonder, no wonder," Shen Yin repeated with a low laugh, "I knew you two would be together, hahaha."
Luo Qinglin didn't know what was so funny, he just thought Shen Yin's smile was weird.
"Shall we go back first? I'm a little hungry." Luo Qinglin asked tentatively.
"Okay..." Before Shen Yin finished speaking, Jiang Yanyu's intimate voice came from a distance.
"BB, it's time for us to go back and rest!" Jiang Yanyu was standing on the sidewalk, leaning next to Bai Shengyun's heavy motorcycle, waving at Luo Qinglin.
"Here it comes!" Luo Qinglin would shout.
Shen Yin turned sideways, looked at Jiang Yanyu's figure in the light, and said to Luo Qinglin in a soft voice: "Brother Qinglin, I want to walk on the beach for a while, you go back with Brother Jiang first."
"Let the group know when you get back, and don't run around and get lost." Luo Qinglin warned.
"good."
As soon as he finished speaking, Luo Qinglin couldn't wait to run down the road and quickly ran towards Jiang Yanyu.
Shen Yin stood there, watching Luo Qinglin's figure getting smaller and smaller, and farther and farther away, until he finally met Jiang Yanyu, and threw himself on him and hugged him.
Jiang Yanyu took off the helmet from the front of the motorcycle, carefully helped Luo Qinglin put it on, and held him on the back seat of the motorcycle.
When the roar sounded and the locomotive disappeared from sight, Shen Yin withdrew his gaze, turned around, and looked at the waves with gloomy eyes.
A seagull fell from the sky and landed at his feet, dying.
Shen Yin sneered at the seagull, took off his glasses without prescription, pursed his lips, and stepped on the weak life.
My brother is mine.
My brother is mine.
Shen Yin repeated it over and over again in his mind while stepping on it.
The author has something to say:
Shen Yin: My brother is mine (sneer)
Jiang Yanyu: Bullshit, get out! (convex)
