By the time Li Xi had almost digested the food, the "stage" over there was also ready.
Although Lu Jiu previously said the show was more like a group of friends starting a B&B together, anyone with a discerning eye can see that it's simply a reality show, created for traffic and to attract fans.
So, from the outset of the renovation, we designed many areas conducive to being on camera. For example, the vibrant flowers in the courtyard, the stylish bar counter in the dining room, and even the stage in the courtyard. While it's called a stage, it's not quite formal: just a canopy in the courtyard. A raised platform near the wall creates a platform, where musical instruments are placed, and a coffee table and sofa are placed on the other side.
When Li Xi went over, there were already quite a few people sitting on the sofa, and there were people adjusting the instruments and sound systems on the stage.
"Miss Li, this way~" Shen Yanran was sitting on the sofa holding a doll. She saw Li Xi first. Perhaps wanting to show her affinity, she waved to Li Xi.
Li Xi didn't really want to be near her. Whether it was Shen Yanran's character in the original novel or her relationship with Shen Zhou and Su Yu, Li Xi didn't feel comfortable around her. However, this show only had a few female guests, and the only empty seat on the sofa, aside from the one next to Shen Yanran, was between two male guests. There was a safe distance between everyone, so Li Xi wasn't worried about accidentally bumping into anyone.
But the problem is that these are all celebrities, and very popular celebrities at that. Li Xi dares to say that today, in order to avoid Shen Yanran, she chose to be sandwiched between the two male guests. When the show is broadcast, the fans of the two male guests will be able to make her a hot topic.
Haha, I dare not provoke you.
Besides, Chen Yanran had already invited her, and if Li Xi still "ungratefully" refused, she'd definitely be slammed by Chen Yanran's fans after the show aired. Ugh, it's so hard to get along with celebrities, especially those you don't really like... What the hell is going on? I came here to relax, but ended up exhausted.
But thinking about her own "little drama queen" plan, Li Xi was revived with full blood. I'm not happy, no one can have an easy life.
Thinking of this, Li Xi smiled and accepted Shen Yanran's advances, sat next to her, and thanked her. By the way, she greeted Xiao Xiao, the food blogger on the other side.
Li Xi didn't want to chat with Chen Yanran, so after thanking her, she started chatting with Xiaoxiao. She first asked how tonight's dinner was prepared and what were the details; secondly, she asked what the special foods in this city were and whether there were any recommended places; thirdly, she asked if she would be willing to accompany her to look for delicious food in this city in the next two days.
Both of them were good eaters and cooks, and they got a little carried away while chatting, completely ignoring Shen Yanran who was trying to join in the conversation. By the time Li Xi noticed that Shen Yanran's expression was not right, Lu Jiu had already walked onto the stage.
In order to avoid being criticized by fans, before Lu Jiu spoke, Li Xi leaned close to Shen Yanran and quietly apologized, "I'm sorry, I like to eat. I really enjoyed the dinner just now, so I chatted with Xiao Xiao for a while and didn't have time to chat with you. We can talk next time if there is a chance."
No matter what Shen Yanran thought, she could only understand generously at this moment, "It's okay, we have common interests and hobbies, so we can talk about it. It's okay to talk again when we have time."
After saying that, the two of them smiled at each other.
Because of the good vibes between the two, the post-editing process included a shot of Shen Yanran trying to join the conversation, hesitant to speak, with the caption "The pretty girl ignored me, feeling wronged, envious, wanting, sobbing." Coupled with a shot of the two smiling at each other, many people immediately started to believe that Li Xi and Shen Yanran were a cult couple. When Li Xi saw this, she was completely shocked.
Of course, this is a later story.
Li Xi and Chen Yanran were chatting here, and Lu Jiu had already started his opening remarks.
Li Xi had previously researched Lu Jiu's acting career, and for many years, he had focused on acting, never resorting to marketing or hype, and had no negative publicity. He was a veteran actor with a strong reputation in the entertainment industry, known for his both his acting skills and his integrity. In recent years, he had not only been acting but also serving as a guest lecturer at the drama academy.
You know what, he looked quite majestic standing on the stage. If it weren't for the wrong location, wrong occasion, and wrong words, Li Xi would have thought he was giving a lecture.
Regardless of whether Lujiu’s opening is decent or not, the subsequent performance is still worth watching.
Lin Yuanzhou was the first to warm up the crowd with a talk show. That's right, he's a singing and dancing idol, and his show was a talk show.
I'm not sure if he wrote the script, but it's still very well-written, full of emotion, with a good grasp of rhythm and structure. The jokes aren't too frequent, but each one is very poignant. Even Li Xi, who has a bit of a filter for her, laughed many times.
After Lin Yuanzhou, the singer came up and sang a soothing love song with his guitar. It was very nice, no problem at all.
Next up was a sitcom featuring actress Chang Huan and a newly crowned actor, a parody of Romeo and Juliet. Perhaps it was specially arranged for this guest, as the storyline was quite coherent.
Shen Yanran went up and performed a classical dance, looking like a butterfly, which was quite pretty. Zhou Qi sang a hip-hop song, which instantly set the scene on fire.
The two internet celebrities had limited talents, so they went up and sang a love song to each other.
The event ended with Lu Jiu's poetry recitation.
Li Xi was completely satisfied. Regardless of their personalities, most of their talent shows were quite good. For example, Lin Yuanzhou, the person Li Xi was least optimistic about, performed very well, regardless of whether he wrote the script or not, indicating that he had practiced privately.
Li Xi knew that the performances at this "welcome party" would probably be edited into the film in the end, so she gave feedback on everyone's performance, clapping loudly, laughing until tears came out, and being as exaggerated as possible.
