Chapter 56 The 56th Melon Part 2
Xu Qingye didn't hear any hidden meaning. He glanced at his room. It was full and he felt safe. It was not messy, but orderly in chaos. He knew exactly where everything was.
"It's not posted in his room, so what can he say? He can't see anything once the door is closed."
Xu Qingye casually pulled out a chair for Shen Mu to sit down, and then he turned on the computer to retrieve Shen Mu's account data.
Shen Mu sat down and looked at the various data on the display screen, feeling dizzy. What was she here for?
"Your recent output has been average, and your data has dropped quite a bit..."
Xu Qingye didn't notice Shen Mu's expression and analyzed it carefully for her. Shen Mu's account operation was actually quite good, but the recent decrease in output caused the data to decline sharply.
"I've been busy with my graduation project lately, so I don't have much time to chase stars."
After listening to Xu Qingye's analysis, Chen Mu hurriedly explained that she had been very busy recently, so she had slacked off in her star-chasing career.
"Yeah, it's okay. I'm just analyzing it with you. It's okay if you don't have time to care."
Xu Qingye said “hmm” and opened the brand account managed by Shen Mu again.
“Did you also do this data?”
Shen Mu was slightly surprised when he saw the form Xu Qingye sent him.
"Well, it's just a matter of convenience. If you want to start a business, I naturally want to support you. I can't help you with anything else, but I do know a little about the internet. I told you that you might not remember it, so I organized all the questions into a document for you. You can go back and read it yourself."
Xu Qingye checked the form and sent it to Shen Mu.
Chen Mu was somewhat moved when she looked at the document. She actually speculated that he had improper thoughts about her brother. She was simply not a human being.
"Brother Xiaoye, you are closer to me than my own brother."
"Don't say that, or he might hear it."
Xu Qingye waved his hand. He didn't know how good the sound insulation of this house was. Shen Que was next door and would be unhappy if he heard it.
"If he heard it, he wouldn't mind."
Shen Mu shook Xu Qingye's arm and then pulled him out.
"I made a set of clothes for you, come out and try them on."
Xu Qingye glanced at Shen Mu in surprise. He had only said that he would make it for Shen Que before, but he didn't expect that he would also have a share.
"I had extra fabric, and since you usually take care of my brother, I have to show my appreciation, so I made it for you all."
Shen Mu took Xu Qingye's arm and walked to the living room. Shen Que, who was originally in the room, sat down in the living room at some point. Seeing the two of them coming out hand in hand, his brows slightly frowned.
"Mu Mu said she made me a set of clothes. I am also taking advantage of you."
Xu Qingye saw Shen Que's bright smile. Shen Mu took out a set of clothes from the bag he brought and handed it to Xu Qingye, and handed the other set to Shen Que.
"Try it on. Let me check the size. If it doesn't fit, I'll take it back and alter it."
Chen Mu asked the two to change clothes. She made two suits. Chen Mu's brand is called Quetazhi, a new Chinese clothing brand. The two suits she made also incorporated Chinese elements and were improved versions of suits.
The two took the clothes and looked at each other, then went back to the room to change clothes at Shen Mu's urging.
Not long after, both of them came out changed their clothes. The two sets of clothes made by Shen Mu were somewhat similar, except that Shen Que's set was long, with bamboo patterns embroidered with silver thread from the chest to the hem.
Xu Qingye's is the same short style, with fewer bamboo patterns, but when they stand together, it is clear that they are the same style.
Xu Qingye turned around in front of the mirror and always felt that he was not as well dressed as Shen Que. Although he was older, he always looked like a child wearing adult clothes.
On the other hand, Shen Que is tall and has long legs, and his slightly raised waistline makes his proportions better. He looks like a picture when he stands there.
"I look a little mature in my outfit."
"No, I think it looks good, but the waist seems a little big. Brother Ono, why is your waist so thin?"
Shen Mu walked over, reached out and pinched the clothes to reduce the waistline. She made a mark and prepared to take it back for alterations.
"Is it really appropriate for me to wear? But I don't think there are any occasions that require formal wear."
Xu Qingye looked at it again. He was used to wearing casual clothes, so he always felt a little awkward in formal clothes.
"It looks good, there will always be a chance to wear it."
Shen Que walked up to Xu Qingye and reached out to help him straighten his collar.
Chen Mu looked at the two of them, standing there in the same clothes, their behavior seemed somewhat intimate, like a young couple.
The alarm bells in Shen Mu's heart rang again, and she finally remembered why she was here.
But before Shen Mu could delve into it, Xu Qingye had already pushed Shen Que away.
"If you don't want to stand with someone more handsome than me, stay away."
Xu Qingye looked quite handsome when he looked at himself, and at 178cm tall he wasn't short, but as soon as Shen Que came over he was completely outshined.
"Who was it that praised me for my looks and suitability to be an actor when they first met me, and now despises me?"
Shen Que was pushed away and muttered softly.
"Then you're not allowed to wear this when I wear it. After all, it's not a big deal if you wear the same clothes as me, and whoever looks ugly will be embarrassed."
The two of them were whispering and bickering, and Shen Mu was speechless listening to them. How old were they in total? They were talking about elementary school topics. It seemed that she was overthinking it.
"Take off the clothes and I'll take them back to have them altered. You can keep them, brother. It would be best if we could take a few photos and promote them for me."
Chen Mu packed up and prepared to go back, as the dormitory would be closed if it was any later.
"It's getting late. Let me take you there. It's not safe for you to be alone."
Xu Qingye took off his clothes and put them away, changed back into his coat, and was about to go out with his car keys.
"I'll take her there. She's my sister after all."
Shen Que quickly stepped forward and took the key from Xu Qingye.
"No, let me do it. You are not good at driving."
"Don't fight over me. You can send me off together. Don't ruin the relationship."
Chen Mu saw the two people fighting for the car keys, and stretched out his hand to separate them. What was there to argue about such a small matter? It was not like a car could not accommodate three people.
"What my sister said makes a lot of sense. Let's go together and go to the supermarket later."
Xu Qingye nodded, put the car keys in his pocket, and Shen Que changed his clothes and followed.
------
The three-day holiday passed very quickly. Zhao Wen came to pick people up early in the morning. She arranged a lot of work for Chen Que, and she was afraid that he would not have time to come back recently. Xu Qingye had to go out of town to shoot an event. Not long after Shen Que left, Yi He drove to pick up Xu Qingye. As soon as the two left, the house became empty again.
"Do you want to film Chen Qing's variety show? After all, she's our potential client, so we have to serve her, right?"
After getting in the car, Yi He asked Xu Qingye about his work arrangements. The event was only for one day and the next itinerary had not been arranged yet. Cao Muan had been out waiting for someone recently and was not in City A either.
"Chen Qing's variety show is being filmed in the village. If you want to go, you should bring more food, and bring some for Chen Qing as well. The next six months will probably be very hard."
Xu Qingye searched the address that Chen Qing had sent him last time. The production crew was really ruthless. They found a relatively backward village where everything was very primitive. If he wanted any supplies, he could only ask the production crew for them.
The shooting time is five months, but it is not uninterrupted shooting. The guests will still be given some rest time. However, compared with other variety shows, this show will be more tiring. The so-called rest is just turning off the camera temporarily for a while.
In order to ensure the authenticity of the program, there will be a period of live broadcast every day to completely and truly record the real status of the stars in the village.
The program is still in the early stages of preparation and will be officially launched soon. It will be updated with daily live broadcasts and one episode per week.
The program team has already set up an official Weibo account and is currently busy shooting promotional videos.
The data of several guests have been updated. They all look delicate and tender and not suitable for work. Now many people have predicted that the program crew will fake the photos and many people are pessimistic about it.
Xu Qingye followed the trend and posted some negative news to lower the reputation of the program team, making it unpopular for a while. It would be interesting to see the reversal of reputation after the official broadcast.
The production team of "Three Meals a Day" has completed the preliminary preparations, but there are still many problems. As soon as the actors arrived in the village, some people started to make trouble. The conditions are really much worse than expected.
The program team did not prepare a hotel for the artists. In order to better integrate into local life, the program team arranged them in the homes of local villagers. The conditions in the villagers' homes were limited, so naturally some people could not adapt to the living conditions.
Chen Qing adapted well. When she was a child, her family conditions were not good, and the house was not much better than it is now. When she was young, she and several cousins were sent to her grandparents' house. There were several people lying on one big bed. She thought it was very interesting at that time, and there were many people accompanying her every day.
The room in the village was very clean. Shen Qing moved her things over and quickly tidied it up. She brought a lot of small decorations, and after tidying it up, the whole room became warm and cozy.
The photographer followed behind her, carefully recording her every move. Shen Qing worked very efficiently. It didn't take long for her to clean the room. After she finished, she took the initiative to go out and ask if anyone else needed help.
Several guests were not familiar with each other, but they really needed help. Since Shen Qing took the initiative, they naturally would not refuse. Therefore, a large part of the original conflict between the guests and the program team was resolved under Shen Qing's enthusiasm.
The main reason was that the two female guests were not quite used to it. Chen Qing distributed the pillows and some small decorations she brought with her to them, and after helping them clean up, they didn't say anything else.
"Chen Qing, where did you buy all these gadgets? Can you send me a link?"
Many of the small decorations that Shen Qing brought were very interesting. Some people wanted to buy the same ones, so they asked about it.
"I made most of them myself. If you like, I can help you with it when I have time. They are all quite simple."
Chen Qing looked at the handmade doll in the other person's hand and generously offered to give him one. When the other person heard that Chen Qing made it herself, he immediately showed a surprised expression.
"You are amazing, completely different from what I imagined."
"Do you imagine me to be a super villain with high aloofness and a nose in the air? The kind who slaps people if they disagree with me? If I had known earlier, I should have worn all black and put on smoky makeup to shock you all."
Shen Qing made a self-deprecating joke, and the others immediately followed suit. They didn't expect Shen Qing to be so approachable.
The director looked at the interaction in front of him and turned the camera to Chen Qing. He didn't expect that Chen Qing had such a spirit for variety shows. Her performance that day was exceptionally outstanding. It was a good decision to invite her.
