Chapter 637: Meet the Parents
The fact that the production team replaced the largest billboard on the first day of filming not only baffled the viewers in the live broadcast room, but also surprised the several artists who were still on set.
Li Guangjun's gaze darted back and forth between Fengtian Domain and the billboard several times, his eyes flashing slightly: "I see."
"Hmm?" Zhao Yun'er turned to look at her boyfriend, asking curiously, "Do you know something?"
The two didn't lower their voices, and Gu Shaoling and the others, who were not far away, immediately perked up their ears.
Li Guangjun also noticed the unusual atmosphere around him, but did not try to hide it. He smiled and said, "If I'm not mistaken, Miss Ye's boyfriend should be the current chairman of the Feng Group. And the billboard that was just removed happens to be the Feng Group's company logo."
Upon hearing this, the atmosphere among the group instantly became subtle.
Zhao Yun'er didn't think too much about it, she was just genuinely surprised: "Chairman? So young?"
In her mind, the chairman of a company group should be a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties, just like Li Guangjun's father.
There are people of Feng Tianyu's age, but they are very rare.
As a second-generation rich kid who was considered one of the wealthiest in City A, Li Guangjun had heard some things about the Feng family.
However, with so many people around, upon hearing his girlfriend's exclamation, he simply smiled and offered a gentle reminder: "Don't underestimate him just because he's young. Age and ability are two different things."
Zhao Yun'er wasn't stupid; she blinked and replied, "...Oh."
Compared to the calm demeanor of the two, Gu Shaoling's behavior was much more straightforward. She stared at Ye Wanxi and the other woman with shining eyes, her face full of gossipy excitement, which made Nie Yuyang feel helpless and amused.
The other two couples, however, were not in the same mood.
Lian Lifan had just made a sarcastic remark to Ye Wanxi not long ago, but he was slapped in the face just a few minutes later.
Moreover, the person who slapped him in the face was none other than the show's biggest sponsor. Is there anything more self-destructive than offending a major sponsor right after appearing on the show?
Even Li Fan couldn't imagine how his agent and the company's CEO would react to this scene; their faces turned pale and blue, a truly striking sight.
Jiang Yulai was even more out of the question. When he tried to seduce Ye Wanxi, he naturally assumed that her boyfriend was someone who was not presentable or respectable.
Unexpectedly, it turns out that they weren't being disreputable at all; they simply didn't care about using such things for publicity.
Having figured this out, Jiang Yulai felt even more strongly that he should stay away from these two people.
However, what he didn't notice was that his nominal girlfriend was now staring intently at someone else's boyfriend, her beautiful, slightly narrowed eyes full of calculation.
When Ye Wanxi saw the logo, she immediately realized: "Is this what you said you were going to do before?"
"Hmm. Surprised?"
Ye Wanxi: "..." Surprised as she was, she was also quite shocked.
"Won't the other investors have objections if you do this?"
Investors invest in order to make money. Besides the revenue sharing from viewership ratings after the program airs, the primary source of revenue is advertising revenue.
The show became a hit, generating a lot of buzz, which naturally led to increased advertising revenue for investors.
Feng Tianyu's meddling has pushed other investors to the bottom, and it's no surprise they'll have objections.
Feng Tianyu could easily see that Ye Wanxi was worried that he had gone too far and made enemies for no reason.
His smile deepened, and he said softly, "No, they are all very happy."
Before Feng's investment, the program team did have other investors, but from the beginning, the TV station did not give them a large budget for the program.
Ultimately, the people invited to the event were sensational, but the risks were also considerable.
Investors invest money with the expectation of returns, and betting too much may not be a good thing.
In fact, before Ye Wanxi confirmed her participation in the program, the program team's initial budget was no more than seven figures.
The biggest investment came after Ye Wanxi confirmed her participation in the show. After the list was announced, the sponsor saw Ye Wanxi's influence and thought it was a business opportunity, so they decided to invest at the last minute. Otherwise, the production team probably wouldn't have been able to pay the salaries of even a few artists.
However, after this big boss invested, most of the money still ended up in the artist's pocket, leaving them with very little for other expenses.
After Feng's investment, things changed. The production team underwent a complete transformation, and they even straightened their backs.
In addition, the investors also received compensation from Feng Tianyu.
Big bosses who can afford to invest spare money in variety shows and advertising are not stupid. Not to mention that Feng Tianyu's compensation is generous, it's like a windfall for them.
Even if Fengtianyu doesn't compensate them, they wouldn't risk offending such a behemoth as the Feng family for a small advertising investment.
Now, not only have they suffered no losses, but they've also unexpectedly connected with the Feng family. They're absolutely overjoyed! How could they possibly have any objections?
Ye Wanxi was taken aback by Feng Tianyu's words, but quickly realized that her senior brother was not the type to act without considering the consequences.
Since he said that, it must have been taken care of beforehand.
"That's good." Ye Wanxi said, then seemed to remember something and whispered, "Everyone else has already arrived. We're a little late. We can talk about other things later. Let's go and get together first."
"Okay." Feng Tianyu nodded and took Ye Wanxi's hand as they walked towards the other guests.
"Miss Ye, Mr. Feng." As soon as Gu Shaoling saw the two of them coming over, she immediately waved and greeted them warmly.
Feng Tianyu recognized Gu Shaoling and knew that she had some connection with Ye Wanxi, so he politely replied, "Hello."
Feng Tianyu's "kindness" emboldened Gu Shaoling to gossip. She stared at the two of them expectantly and chuckled, "Are you two wearing matching outfits today?"
This question immediately stirred up Feng Tianyu's desire to show off: "Yeah, my mom designed it herself. Do we look good in it?"
This straight shot stunned everyone present, including the viewers in the live broadcast room.
[Mom? Isn't the big boss's mom Xiao Yezi's...future mother-in-law? Ahhh, have they met each other's parents yet?]
[They're already boyfriend and girlfriend, so it's normal for them to have met each other's parents, right? But the fact that the parents were willing to design matching outfits for them shows that Feng's mother really likes this future daughter-in-law, right? So, is Xiao Yezi really going to marry into a wealthy family?]
[Haha, I told you so. This woman's rise to fame was inexplicable; she definitely has a sugar daddy behind her. This is solid proof, right? Disgusting. Who knows how many resources she's stolen from others, yet she always tries to cultivate this image of an independent and strong modern woman. In the end, she's just a parasitic vine in a wealthy family. Ugh~]
