Chapter 30 Chapter 30

The final competition of "Boy Group Training Camp" officially started at 8 pm on Saturday night.

The program team had been warming up for half a month, but the popularity of this season has been very high. Many people, even if they haven't watched it, know something about the program's gossip and memes.

Therefore, even if some people are not interested in boy group selection shows, they can't help but click in when they see the promotional page.

On the night of the live broadcast, millions of people had already poured into the channel before it even started, and the number was still increasing.

Fans' barrage battles had already begun.

[Shengbao's mother loves you!!!]

[Xing Ge! Husband! Perform well tonight, talk less!!]

[Yuan Ye Yuan Ye, super wild style!]

[Jing Fei little cutie, come on!!]

[Save Wu Ze! The child has been a trainee for five years, he's handsome, can dance, sing, and rap, but now he's stuck at the debut position, which is very dangerous!]

[Xiao Lu, add oil! We will definitely help you debut!]

……

Gu Xing Shi and Yin He Feng stood backstage, watching the staff conducting the final pre-broadcast adjustments on stage. Behind them were the fans and audience members who were entering one after another.

After working hard for two and a half months, the final result will be revealed tonight.

Gu Xing Shi suddenly felt an unprecedented nervousness.

He was so nervous, he wondered how Meng Yuan Sheng and Cheng Xin were feeling.

To relieve his anxiety, he turned to Yin He Feng and asked, "Brother Yin, aren't you nervous?"

Yin He Feng smiled: "How is that possible? Look at my palms, they're all sweaty!"

Gu Xing Shi looked, and it was true. He couldn't help but say, "I thought you'd been with so many trainees, you'd be used to this kind of occasion."

"I also thought that way the first time I participated in a selection show," Yin He Feng seemed to recall something. "But every final competition after that, I was still nervous. That's when I realized that as long as you've put in the effort, and you have a bond with these trainees, you'll naturally worry and be nervous. It's unavoidable."

He pointed to Gu Xing Shi's collar, "Just like you, little brother Gu. This is the first time I've seen you so absent-minded, you even tied your tie backward."

Gu Xing Shi then realized that he had been thinking about Meng Yuan Sheng and their program, and he had been absent-minded, accidentally tying his tie backward.

While adjusting it, he said, "Mainly, I felt my eyelids twitching since this morning, I always felt something would happen..."

Before he finished speaking, Yin He Feng quickly said, "呸呸呸 (pèi pèi pèi - a sound to ward off bad luck), everything will go smoothly today."

Gu Xing Shi: "……"

-

At 8 pm, the second season finals of "Boy Group Training Camp" officially began.

This final competition was divided into three rounds.

The first round was a performance of the theme song with the senior group from the previous season.

The second round was a mentor duet, with four mentors leading four teams to compete.

The third round was the trainees' individual performances.

The senior group had debuted for two years. Compared to these still-undebuted trainees, their stage presence and performance were much more dazzling.

During practice, they hadn't realized it, but now standing on stage, feeling the ease of the seniors, many people couldn't help but feel a little timid.

However, Meng Yuan Sheng, who was at the C position, was not afraid. He was not overshadowed by the senior C position from the previous season. Instead, because of their evenly matched performances, the theme song, which had been seen by fans countless times, had a new flavor.

Their final collaborative high-difficulty move brought about the first scream climax of the night.

His performance also encouraged the other trainees.

They didn't have the stage presence of the seniors, but they had their own advantages.

Two and a half months of hard work, every performance given their all.

No one loved this stage more than they did.

The youthful passion, even a little rough, was always the most touching.

The stage was filled with energetic singing and dancing, and the screams from the audience were earth-shattering.

Gu Xing Shi felt the enthusiasm behind him, and his eyes were slightly moist.

After the theme song, the second round of the competition quickly began.

Meng Yuan Sheng and Cheng Xin chose Shen Yu's group, and the song was one of Shen Yu's most popular songs.

This song was radically rearranged by Meng Yuan Sheng and Shen Yu.

Most importantly, Meng Yuan Sheng was the one who took the initiative to put forward the idea for the rearrangement. After he finished speaking, Shen Yu was immediately amazed and immediately decided on this version.

At that time, Gu Xing Shi was standing aside, watching the confidence and brilliance on Meng Yuan Sheng's face.

In fact, some other trainees had questioned it at the time, but Meng Yuan Sheng was neither humble nor arrogant, explaining it meticulously point by point until the other party was convinced.

This was someone Gu Xing Shi couldn't have imagined two months ago.

It was like saving a pot of flowers.

Watching him take root again, flourish, until he bloomed again into a gorgeous flower.

He suddenly understood what Yin He Feng meant.

As long as you put in the effort and have a bond with them, you will naturally worry and be nervous for them.

Two and a half months ago, he was still thinking about how to get through this year, then sell the company and property to achieve financial freedom.

But after seeing Meng Yuan Sheng and Cheng Xin's efforts, he was slowly changing his mind. At least, now he wanted to accompany them step by step to the top.

Shen Yu's group almost all had high popularity, coupled with the surprising arrangement.

The scene erupted in wave after wave of screams, almost shaking the roof.

The barrage was also excited.

[So good!!! Their cooperation with the mentor was great!!!]

[I'm not a fan of Meng Yuan Sheng, but I have to say, Meng Yuan Sheng was really eye-catching. Looking at him, you almost can't see anyone else.]

[Crazy talk! This group can debut directly!!!!]

[Too short!!! I want to grab them back and make them dance again!!]

[I declare, this is the best show I've seen tonight!!]

……

Bai Ran was also in the audience, excitedly taking pictures.

Her favorite and her bias performing together, who could understand her excitement!!!

She took so many pictures that her camera was getting hot.

When their performance ended, she still felt unsatisfied.

At that moment, she saw a familiar figure in front.

It was Gu Xing Shi.

Perhaps because of the finals, he was dressed more formally than usual.

A white shirt and black pants, his waist was tightly cinched, but it made his lower curves even more prominent.

His hands were clasped together, as if praying for the performers on stage.

Even though he was in the darkness, he was so white that he glowed, and his whole person had a sacred feeling.

Before Bai Ran could react, her body subconsciously raised her camera, capturing this scene.

She had originally wanted to greet Gu Xing Shi before the next program started, but she saw him answer a phone call, his expression suddenly changed, and he hurriedly walked towards the backstage.

Bai Ran's heart couldn't help but sink.

Something must have happened, right?

-

Gu Xing Shi suppressed his anger and quickly rushed to the backstage.

What appeared before him was a performance costume that had been stained with paint, unrecognizable.

Meng Yuan Sheng clenched his fists tightly, his expression cold as he looked at the trainee across from him.

Gu Xing Shi immediately recognized him. His name was Chang Jia Jun, an artist from Lu Ming Company.

Chang Jia Jun's expression was a little flustered, but he insisted, "It was really an accident."

As he spoke, he looked towards the end of the corridor.

Lu Ming's manager and Sun Hong Fei rushed over.

Sun Hong Fei was also upset.

For a live broadcast variety show like this, the worst thing is an accident.

He wished he could pray to the gods and Buddhas.

The first two rounds went smoothly, and he thought tonight would continue smoothly.

Unexpectedly, just as he breathed a sigh of relief, something happened.

And, the accident involved the person Gu Xing Shi managed.

This was just making things difficult for his career!!!

His expression immediately turned serious: "Chang Jia Jun, what's going on? Tell the truth."

Lu Ming's manager immediately became unhappy: "Manager Sun, what do you mean? I know you have a good relationship with Manager Gu, but you can't slander our artist without any evidence. Jia Jun said it was an accident, and besides, such important things as performance costumes, if Meng Yuan Sheng didn't keep them well, shouldn't he also be responsible?"

Gu Xing Shi almost laughed at his brazen accusation.

He stood in front of Meng Yuan Sheng and looked at Lu Ming's manager: "If I remember correctly, Chang Jia Jun's performance doesn't require paint, and this isn't his dressing room. He took paint he 'didn't need' and went into a dressing room that 'didn't belong to him,' then precisely spilled it on Meng Yuan Sheng's performance costume. How careless do you have to be to do that?"

Lu Ming's manager's expression froze: "The backstage is so chaotic, it's not impossible for him to have gone to the wrong dressing room."

Gu Xing Shi didn't bother with his nonsense, his gaze locked on someone in the crowd: "Wen Ming Feng, your teammate did this much for you, aren't you going to say something?"

The trainee who was called out had been acting indifferent, but now his expression slightly changed.

Lu Ming Company had four trainees this time. Two had been eliminated early, leaving two: Chang Jia Jun and Wen Ming Feng.

Compared to Chang Jia Jun's difficult entry into the finals, Wen Ming Feng, although not very popular, had always been in the debut position. Until the eve of the finals, his voting momentum suddenly intensified, even threatening Meng Yuan Sheng's position.

It was at this time that Gu Xing Shi learned about the voting strategies of these large companies: they didn't go all out in the early stages to save votes for a final push.

There had been other selection shows where the seemingly sure C position had been overturned at the last minute, overtaken by someone else.

Wen Ming Feng must have had the same idea, but luckily Meng Yuan Sheng's fans were strong, suppressing him.

Unexpectedly, they failed and used such a despicable method.

Gu Xing Shi remembered the gossip he heard from the system on the way: [This is Lu Ming Company's strategy of sacrificing a pawn to save the king. Anyway, with Chang Jia Jun's popularity, he would definitely not be able to debut, so it's better to gamble and push Wen Ming Feng to the C position. Even if he's questioned and scolded later, he'll have the exposure and fame. Controversy can attract fans, it's a win-win situation!]

[However, Chang Jia Jun originally didn't agree, but his family is poor, his mother needs surgery, and Wen Ming Feng, a rich second-generation, promised him 500,000 yuan, so he did it.]

Gu Xing Shi looked at Chang Jia Jun, who was hiding behind the manager.

Although he was pitiful, he didn't deserve sympathy.

Gu Xing Shi said coldly, "Chang Jia Jun, is the 500,000 yuan burning your hands?"

Chang Jia Jun suddenly raised his head, looking at Gu Xing Shi with a ghostly expression.

The manager and Wen Ming Feng's faces also changed.

Sun Hong Fei also realized something from their expressions and immediately said, "Manager Gu, don't worry, we will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly and give you justice!"

Lu Ming's manager gritted his teeth. Although he didn't know how Gu Xing Shi knew about this, now wasn't the time to argue. So, while saying he didn't know anything, he pulled Wen Ming Feng and tried to leave.

"Stop!"

Gu Xing Shi's voice rang out.

Lu Ming's manager hesitated, not knowing why, but he was a little afraid of this young Manager Gu, and reluctantly said, "Manager Gu, is there anything else you need?"

Gu Xing Shi smiled slightly.

To be honest, he originally just wanted to watch his artists finish the finals peacefully.

But they didn't want to, forcing him to use nuclear weapons.

Then he couldn't blame him for being ruthless.

He calmly said, "Manager Lu, you're really neglecting your management, otherwise, you wouldn't let Wen Ming Feng bring his girlfriend to the scene."

Lu Ming's manager: "!!!"

Wen Ming Feng: "!!!"

The onlookers: "!!!"

Lu Ming's manager secretly glared at Wen Ming Feng, then immediately retorted, "You're lying!"

Gu Xing Shi raised an eyebrow: "Manager Lu, it's too late to text and tell them to leave now."

Lu Ming's manager's typing hand suddenly froze, looking at Gu Xing Shi in horror.

That pretty face showed a harmless smile, softly saying, "I mean, you can't just get rid of one, there's another one too. Coincidentally, it's Wen Ming Feng's mother-in-law. They're all family, they should be together, don't you think?"

Everyone: "!!!"

Mother and daughter sharing a husband!!!

Explosive!!!

Exciting!!!

Wen Ming Feng had been able to maintain his composure until Gu Xing Shi said that, then he looked at him in horror.

Impossible!!

He did it so secretly, how could Gu Xing Shi know!!!

He wanted to explain, but his mind went blank, and he couldn't say a word for a long time.

Manager Lu's face turned the color of pig liver. He knew Wen Ming Feng was dating, but the domestic entertainment industry wasn't strict about this, and since Wen Ming Feng had always been careful, he hadn't paid attention.

Who would have thought!!

This kid not only hid so much from him, but also made a big deal out of it!

Looking at the trainees, staff, and even some people secretly taking videos with their phones.

It's over!!

Everything is over!!!

Manager Lu looked at Gu Xing Shi in fear, regretting endlessly.

Why did he get possessed and do such a thing.

If this melon explodes, now, let alone the C position, it's questionable whether even the debut position can be kept.

His hand trembled, but he didn't dare to point at Gu Xing Shi, and finally scurried away.

Once he left, the discussion in the scene became even louder.

Even the trainees who were supposed to go on stage next were reluctant to leave and eat melons here.

Some quick-handed people had already posted the video online.

And this explosive melon instantly topped the hot search, adding another layer of heat to "Boy Group Training Camp."

Although many people questioned the authenticity of this melon.

But not long after, someone posted a new video, the location was in the inner audience seats, and two women suddenly started fighting.

Although the lighting was dim, it could be seen that one was young and beautiful, and the other was beautiful and plump, with mature charm. You could vaguely hear the young girl's distraught voice: "…You're shameless, you actually stole my daughter's boyfriend!!"

As for whether you believe it or not, it's up to you.

Anyway, not long after this melon exploded, Wen Ming Feng's fan support club disbanded. It is said that many fans called the program team asking if they could withdraw the votes they had cast.

But the outside turmoil did not affect the atmosphere backstage.

Yin He Feng and others were stunned.

In their impression, Gu Xing Shi had always been smiling and good-tempered. This was the first time they had seen him so angry.

No one dared to look him in the eye when he swept his gaze over them.

Everyone wondered if they had offended him before.

Sun Hong Fei was even more shocked.

Manager Gu went completely crazy!!!

The moment he turned cold, he was too much like Mr. Wen.

The pressure was immense, almost making him breathless.

So that now, Gu Xing Shi had returned to his usual appearance, he was a little timid, not daring to approach.

After taking revenge, Gu Xing Shi's hot head calmed down a bit, and he realized that the most important thing now was to solve the problem of Meng Yuan Sheng's performance costume.

He walked towards Meng Yuan Sheng.

Everyone subconsciously made way for him.

Meng Yuan Sheng pursed his lips, but his expression was not as depressed as he thought, and even a little bright.

Gu Xing Shi cautiously asked, "Are you alright?"

After working hard for two and a half months, having his performance costume ruined on the most important stage, Gu Xing Shi could imagine how much it would affect Meng Yuan Sheng.

He patted Meng Yuan Sheng on the shoulder, thinking about how to comfort him.

But Meng Yuan Sheng whispered, "Manager Gu, you were so handsome just now!"

Gu Xing Shi's words were stuck in his throat, a question mark silently appearing on his head.

Meng Yuan Sheng saw that the usually domineering Gu Xing Shi suddenly became dazed, and couldn't help laughing: "Manager Gu, thank you for protecting me, but I'm not who I used to be."

He said calmly and confidently, "Even if I'm only wearing casual clothes, I can confidently conquer everyone on stage."

Cheng Xin also patted him on the shoulder in solidarity: "I'll wear casual clothes with you!"

Gu Xing Shi was stunned, watching the two of them about to go find the makeup artist to change their makeup, he quickly shouted: "Stop! What are you doing!"

He was both angry and amused, "Who said there are no performance costumes?!"

Meng and Cheng: "???"

Before the competition, Gu Xing Shi had watched domestic and foreign selection shows, considering all possible accidents, and squeezed money from the company's funds to make backup costumes for the two of them.

He didn't tell them because he was afraid they would be stressed.

Who would have thought it would actually be used!

At this moment, watching Gu Xing Shi take out the backup performance costumes, Meng and Cheng looked at him with the same expression as Cinderella looked at her fairy godmother.

Gu Xing Shi felt goosebumps from their gazes, and quickly handed the performance costumes to Meng Yuan Sheng: "Go get ready, you'll be on stage soon."

After watching Meng Yuan Sheng and Cheng Xin go on stage, Gu Xing Shi stood backstage with Yin He Feng.

It was unclear if it was his illusion.

This time, Meng Yuan Sheng's performance seemed better than ever.

He also unsurprisingly won first place in popularity.

Holding the microphone, standing at the highest position, looking at the countless light sticks with his name written on them, he suddenly choked up.

This was the scene he had fantasized about countless times in his dreams.

And now, it had come true.

Countless emotions intertwined, impacting his brain.

His prepared speech suddenly became useless.

He sincerely thanked the fans, mentors, teammates, and staff, and finally looked towards Gu Xing Shi.

But he was unusually silent.

He hadn't spoken yet, but the fans who had been with him all the way already understood what he wanted to say.

It was unknown who started it first, but lines of text floated across the barrage.

[Thank you, Manager Gu!]

[In the future, please take care of Manager Gu more!]

[Wuwuwuwu, Shengbao and Manager Gu should be together!!]

Meng Yuan Sheng remembered the first time he met Gu Xing Shi.

Gu Xing Shi's eyes were bright, enthusiastic, and sincere as he said he wanted to sign him.

From that moment on, the gears of fate began to turn.

He led him onto another path he had longed for.

Tears had unknowingly filled Meng Yuan Sheng's face.

In the end, all his gratitude was summed up in one sentence.

"Thank you, Manager Gu, you gave me a new life."

At this time, the director happened to switch the camera to Gu Xing Shi's face.

Clearly standing in the shadows backstage.

But it seemed as if all the light was favoring him, outlining every beautiful line, and the starlight in his eyes.

The barrage, which had been filled with emotion, suddenly became agitated.

[Whoa!! Whose trainee is this!!]

[Just found out this is Meng Yuan Sheng's manager!!! Okay! I'll apply for Le Shi tomorrow!!]

[Uh... what's the process of chasing a manager?]

-

Wen Yue had just finished a transoceanic meeting when he suddenly remembered something and asked his assistant Tang Ling, "The finals of "Boy Group Training Camp" are tonight, right?"

Tang Ling glanced at his watch: "Yes, it should be time to announce the final rankings."

Wen Yue: "Nothing happened, right?"

Tang Ling immediately recounted the Wen Ming Feng incident.

Wen Yue frowned slightly.

This season of "Boy Group Training Camp" was really restless.

However, "Boy Group Training Camp" was related to the establishment of his entertainment empire, so he paid more attention: "Open it and have a look."

Tang Ling immediately opened the software, projecting it onto the screen, and introducing the currently released player list to Wen Yue.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he opened the live broadcast, the director happened to switch to Gu Xing Shi's face.

The young man's shoulders and back were straight, his flax-colored hair looked soft, his puppy eyes looked at the camera, innocent and harmless.

Perhaps because of emotion, he pursed his lips tightly, his cheeks chubby, and his lip beads slightly raised.

It made people want to give him everything, just to make him smile again.

Wen Yue's cold, hard heart, which had never been moved for anyone, seemed to sink a little.

Then he saw a barrage fly by.

[Ahhhhhhh!! Wife!!! My destined wife!!!]

Wen Yue was silent for a moment: "Are today's fans so uninhibited?"
