Chapter 9 [Updated] Variety Show - Pilot Episode! ...
After encountering Lin Xingsen, Su Yunruo became a little anxious and immediately used the search function to search for all three characters "Lin Xingsen" in the book when she got home.
She was certain she had overlooked some important detail.
Lin Xingsen's book contains only three or four paragraphs, but each paragraph contains important information.
Lin Xingsen doesn't seem to be friendly towards the female protagonist of the original book.
Lin Xingsen harbors hostility towards the male protagonist of the original book.
In the middle of the story, not long after he went offline, Lin Xingsen announced his retirement from the entertainment industry due to his father's death, and took on the responsibility of a game company with a market value of tens of billions at a young age.
It really looks like it when you cover your eyes...
Su Yunruo used her iPad to search for Lin Xingsen's photos, and then wanted to look up her high school graduation photo for comparison. She hurriedly ran into the study and searched around but couldn't find it before suddenly remembering that those things were all kept in the study of the old house.
As she was packing her things and preparing to book a plane ticket home, several messages popped up in the group chat, which was full of Su Yunruo's brainless fans.
Please don't bother me: [Your Jiang Chunrou is really good at negotiating business. Out of a total investment of 80 million, she took 50 million.]
This time we definitely won't lose money: [What?! Ruoruo took all 50 million we invested, and then she can get another 50 million back in the final profit split? Wouldn't Orange Video be a sucker? They won't make any money!]
Please refrain from interfering in other people's business: [...]
The stunningly beautiful Su Yunruo: [Luckily, your life plan was to marry a man of equal social standing.]
This time we definitely won't lose money: [What?!]
Please don't bother me: [@Beautiful Su Yunruo, this time you're sponsoring my new product. The conversion rate needs to reach its target if the variety show gets top-rated. It's up to you.]
The stunningly beautiful Su Yunruo: [OK.]

Time flies. Amidst a flurry of online discussions about "hoping Su Yunruo would participate in the recording," "Su Yunruo might participate in the recording," and "Su Yunruo will not participate in the recording," "Let's Travel Together" premiered.
Originally scheduled for Saturday, the production team arranged for a preview episode to be recorded the night before so that viewers could get a sneak peek at the guests.
At 6:30 p.m., the live broadcast started on time.
The first filming location was in S City, and the meeting point was a temporarily rented villa.
The interior design is a typical modern minimalist style, mainly in black, white, and gray. Its advantages are that it is spacious, well-lit, and large enough to accommodate the entire film crew.
When Su Yunruo's car arrived at the gate, she saw the camera. Xiao Ou nervously explained the general filming process for the past two days to her.
She was the first guest to arrive, and after the others introduced themselves briefly, they started playing games in groups. The first game determined the accommodations for the night, and the second game was scheduled for tomorrow, where the two groups would compete to determine the winner.
"Unscripted variety shows are the most troublesome. Miss Su, if you get isolated by them, try to squeeze out tears and act pitiful like you're in a drama. That way, the viewers in the live stream definitely won't criticize you too harshly. Also... just focus on completing the tasks diligently, listen to the team leader, and do whatever you're told. In short, don't give the viewers a chance to criticize you. As long as we finish recording quietly, we've won!"
"Most importantly! Every word Zhou Kantian says is sarcastic or mocking, so don't pay any attention to him."
Don't worry.
After Xiao Ou finished his rambling, Su Yunruo got up and got out of the car, leaving behind a resolute and dashing figure.
I walked into the camera's view, raised my hand to greet it, and pushed open the door.
Primary goal: Earn money by completing tasks!
...
The gate closed, and the van left the courtyard and headed to the dormitory for the accompanying staff arranged by the production team.
Xiao Ou, as the assistant, was to stay here, while Jiang Chunrou had things to take care of at the company, so they prepared to leave at the dormitory entrance.
Before leaving, she adjusted her glasses and offered sincere advice, "Xiao Ou, don't waste your time on this kind of planning in the future. Before joining the team, just get to know the staff briefly and get a good night's sleep."
"ah?"
"If Miss Su were obedient, would I need to cover her mouth?"
Does that mean Ms. Su will mess around on the show?
Xiao Ou panicked, "What can we do! All the guests hate her, how embarrassing would it be to be isolated? She can't even understand other people's sarcastic remarks, so she won't even know she's being insulted. The haters will definitely analyze her word by word with a magnifying glass, make memes out of her, and her rivals will take the opportunity to buy negative trending topics. They'll do it all over the major social media platforms, Ms. Su is finished."
After a few seconds of silence, Jiang Chunrou sighed, "If I were to retire from the entertainment industry because of this, Miss Su would be laughing in her sleep... I have a meeting later, so I'll be leaving now. Keep an eye on the live stream and contact me if anything happens."
"receive."
Xiao Ou didn't return until she was back in the room arranged by the production team, where she sat on the bed and opened her iPad.
Although it's a job, I can just laze around at home watching variety shows and still get paid.
She's growing to love her job more and more!
Orange Video, live streaming channel, "Let's Travel Together".
When Xiao Ou opened it, the screen was full of exclamation marks.
[Is this something I can watch without a membership? Su Yunruo really came???]
The production team was too cunning; they didn't mention it beforehand.
[Didn't they say she was afraid to participate? Was that just fake news?]
[Impossible. Tuya's revelations are always accurate; she would never spread false information.]
[Perhaps Su Gongzhu saw it while lurking in the gossip group and quickly contacted the director to ask to participate, since the director hadn't announced her participation before.]
[Tuya said that if she wasn't blacklisted, she must have found a new sugar daddy! It's confirmed; Su Yunruo's new sugar daddy is inextricably linked to "Let's Travel Together."]
[Holy crap, that makes sense.]
【etc--】
What is Su Yunruo doing? Did she pull a photographer into the small room?
In the footage, Su Yunruo enters the living room, looks around, and beckons in a certain direction. A photographer wearing a dark coat and a baseball cap reluctantly walks out with his camera.
【Holy crap?!???】
What is she doing? She dares to do this live on stream?!
【No, why bring in a photographer? Her taste is questionable.】
Xiao Ou watched as Su Yunruo and the photographer completely disappeared from the camera's view, and wondered, "What is Su Yunruo doing?"
However, she lacked the imagination of the viewers in the live stream, who could guess that Su Yunruo was choosing a photographer to cause trouble in a small room during the recording, and that Su Yunruo and the photographer were old lovers who had not seen each other for many years, reunited after a breakup, and their love and hate were intertwined...
Suddenly, Xiao Ou had a brilliant idea.
The unspoken rules of the entertainment industry don't discriminate between men and women. With Ms. Su's wealth and status, there must be countless handsome men wanting to sleep with her, right?
I wonder if Miss Su ever had a boyfriend in her early years. With her looks, she would probably have been more popular when she was in school.
Those who acted alongside her have all become heartthrobs in the entertainment industry; it's unimaginable what kind of extraordinary person her boyfriend must be.
A few minutes later
Snap—
A hand gently pushed the door open.
First, a dark camera emerged from inside, causing a collective question mark to appear on the foreheads of the viewers in the live stream. Then, the person holding the camera walked out from inside.
It was the photographer Su Yunruo had just pulled inside. He was wearing a dark coat, and the gray brim of his hat was still securely on his head. He was also wearing a mask, so it seemed that nothing strange had happened inside.
However, the photographer stopped at the door with the camera, and the door to the room behind him was closed. Su Yunruo did not come out of that room.
The viewers in the live stream were even more speechless, completely confused about what was going on.
"No, why is the photographer still standing by the door? I came to see Lin Xingsen, not him."
Why haven't Lin Xingsen and the others appeared yet?
Why did Su Yunruo have to come? One bad apple spoils the whole bunch.
Not everyone is a comedian. I just want to watch a lighthearted variety show while eating, who's bothered?
[I only started watching the live stream early this morning because I heard Su Yunruo wasn't coming. I didn't expect her to actually show up. Is she just trying to ride the wave of popularity? What bad luck.]
Um...this photographer seems to have lost a lot of weight.
A comment that differed from the others caused a sudden shift in public opinion during the live stream.
[Is this photographer Su Yunruo?]
[Su Yunruo? ???]
[How is that possible? Su Yunruo isn't that tall as a man. Her figure is exactly the same as before.]
[Yeah, Su Yunruo is still in her room doing something weird.]
Are there any die-hard fans of Su Yunruo who can confirm if this photographer is indeed Su Yunruo?
[Calling for pig lovers! Calling for pig lovers! Calling for pig lovers! Calling for pig lovers! Calling for pig lovers! Calling for pig lovers! Calling for pig lovers!]
Xiao Ou was embarrassed. How could there be any fans of Su Yunruo in this live stream? She doesn't even have a proper fan club. A while ago, a big fan publicly announced that she was leaving the fandom. All the fans are scattered. Even if someone were to release the news that Su Yunruo was filming "Let's Travel Together" now, there wouldn't be a huge crowd entering the live stream.
Based on Xiao Ou's in-depth understanding of Su Yunruo's fans over this period of time, Su Yunruo's fans have been so thoroughly abused by other fans that they have become extremely indifferent. They quietly watch the show and give it a rating, and go about their daily lives as usual. They maintain an attitude of "I don't listen to any of the nonsense" towards online marketing accounts that maliciously stir up trouble.
Fans calling for Su Yunruo in the live stream could not be summoned, which sparked a discussion about whether the strange photographer was actually Su Yunruo.
Just then, two cars finally pulled up in front of the villa.
The other guests have arrived.
The boy with a bright smile was the first to get off the bus.
Two boys then got off the bus and waved to the camera.
The person who got out of the next car was Fu Huai, who, like Su Yunruo, was not well received.
Xiao Ou had heard about his story. He debuted through an idol talent show, was taciturn, had a strained relationship with his teammates, and was criticized for not fitting in with the group in the previous variety show. In short, he was the type of person that was least liked in teamwork.
Lin Xingsen got out of the car after Fu Huai walked up. The twelve-year-old boy was much shorter than Fu Huai when he stood next to him, but his expression was cold and indifferent. He hadn't slept well last night, and there was still a hint of drowsiness in his cat-like eyes.
Son, son, son!
Xiao Ou's eyes were glued to Lin Xingsen's face.
After returning home that day, Xiao Ou lay on her pillow, filled with regret.
His son was right in front of him, and there were no security guards stopping him, yet he didn't rush over to touch his hair or pinch his cheeks.
Rua Lin Xingsen is the dream of countless mothers!
"Wow, that startled me."
A scream suddenly came from the live stream.
The person at the front suddenly sprang backward, hitting two children behind him, and the group of people all retreated.
Lin Xingsen quickly moved to the side to avoid it.
Oh my, my son is so agile, he's got such a strong athletic ability.
"Good afternoon, everyone. I'm the temporary MC for 'Let's Travel Together'." The person holding the camera spoke, his voice loud and emotionless, exactly like the voice-over in variety shows. "Due to limited budget, we can only ask you all to do a brief pre-interview at the entrance for now."
The figures are similar, but the viewers in the live stream can tell that it is a female voice.
Holy crap, a radical gender change?!
[It's confirmed. Su Yunruo pulled the photographer into a small room to change clothes.]
[You can do this? Did they not recognize you at all?]
Is she hard to recognize? Is this show scripted to specifically promote Su Yunruo?
Believe me, none of the idols present had such good acting skills; they didn't even recognize Su Yunruo.
[Isn't it easy to recognize her? Just now, very few people in the live chat recognized that it was Su Yunruo.]
Without prior notice, and wearing a mask and baseball cap, no one would recognize her.
"Should we just do it like this?"
"Yes."
The little boy at the head of the group immediately stood up straight, cleared his throat, and greeted the camera, "Hello, viewers of 'Let's Travel Together,' I'm FLY-Zheng Chengcheng."
The kids who can become idols are all good-looking. They have a pair of puppy-like eyes that look loyal and easy to fool. They wear red sports vests, and although they are young, you can vaguely see muscles in their arms. They are also wearing sports headbands.
"What do you have to show the viewers in the live stream? Singing and dancing are fine, but I hope you can show something that you've never told anyone about before."
Without a second thought, Zheng Chengcheng said, "I can sing."
"I absolutely believe in your talent as a singer, but don't think about work. Just treat this show as a fun opportunity. Do you have any special skills outside of your professional background?"
Excluding professional skills, this is something that needs to be carefully considered.
Besides Zheng Chengcheng, the two little ones behind her were also thinking.
Suddenly, Zheng Chengcheng stuck out her tongue like a puppy and licked the tip of her nose, proudly declaring, "I can do that!"
The two little ones behind them were stunned for a moment.
Photographer: "..."
[A lively and bustling scene]
[Zheng Chengcheng, why didn't you give us a heads-up! Is there no one in this world you care about anymore?]
[If you can do it, fine, but how did you even manage to make it?]
[Hahaha, I'm laughing so hard my stomach hurts! How can there be such a hilarious skill? I just tried it, and I can't do it!]
After a few seconds of silence, the photographer sighed, "Looks like you're not going to maintain your image... Okay, that's your part, next one."
The puppy scratched its head and muttered, "How come so fast?" before moving aside. But as soon as it moved aside, the two behind it followed suit.
The screen only showed the lower half of the interviewee's face, so I adjusted the height and pointed the camera at their eyes.
I was suddenly stunned.
The cat's dark eyes stared intently at her, as if it could see through her temporary disguise.
"please……"
Before she could finish speaking, the other person turned sideways and walked right past her.
He was shorter than her, but his steps were more unsteady.
