Half a month later.
Xiao He brought Huo An to the live broadcast of "Extreme Speed".
The last time I came, the show was on break and there were only staff members on the scene. This time there were obviously a lot more people.
In addition to the contestants preparing for the challenge, there were also many spectators on the scene.
This is one of the reasons why "Speed" is different from other similar programs. It is broadcast live without editing, showing the audience the most real side.
When the program was first created, several celebrities participated, but their true nature was exposed during the live broadcast and the show almost collapsed.
Since then, the number of participating stars has decreased.
In this episode, Huo An is the only star among all the contestants.
Although he is big and strong, he is a famous artist who backs down. Seeing the other contestants around him, who are all strong and confident, he was stunned.
Pulling Xiao He to say goodbye.
"After today, I may have to retire from the entertainment industry. My career as a star was short, but brilliant. There have been a lot of negative comments about me online, but I have left a lasting impression. I am content."
Xiao He frowned and looked at him.
"Your celebrity life is so dull, where's the brilliance?"
Huo An choked up, then sighed and said, "I heard that all the stars who participated in this challenge collapsed and no one was spared. I guess I will not be able to escape either. But Captain, even if you really want me to die, I will definitely go!"
Xiao He: "..."
Please note the impact.
After you said that, didn’t you see that the expressions of others looking at me changed?
Huo An was feeling sad when a nanny car came roaring over with a squeak and stopped at the recording site at lightning speed accompanied by rising exhaust gas.
The car door opened and Pan Hong walked out wearing sunglasses.
He first raised his head and looked around, then turned around and greeted someone coming out of the car.
Xiao He knew who it was without even looking.
Yan Xiuqun.
The male protagonist in the novel.
His appearance is very consistent with the current aesthetic of the entertainment industry. He is thin, has deep facial features, and treats people coldly, which easily makes fans crazy about him.
In the original novel, after Yan Xiuqun terminated his contract with Xiao He, he joined another senior agent in the same company, Pan Hong.
Not long after that, Pan Hong arranged a movie for him and asked him to sing an insert song in it. Yan Xiuqun gradually became popular and has now successfully entered the second-tier.
As soon as the two got out of the car, there was a commotion among the audience.
Pan Hong was obviously very satisfied with the effect. She glanced around with a smile and saw Xiao He walking straight towards her and greeted her.
At this time, Yan Xiuqun suddenly spoke:
"Where did you hear I was coming here?"
"What?"
Xiao He was puzzled.
Yan Xiuqun raised his chin and said, "You followed me here on purpose, didn't you just want me to go back with you? As long as you..."
"no."
Xiao He retorted at the speed of light.
"I never thought about asking you to come back."
“…”
Yan Xiuqun's expression changed slightly. He stared at her with wide eyes for a while, then turned his head away and stopped talking.
Anyone could tell that the atmosphere was not right, but Huo An was a fool and explained, "We are here to participate in the challenge."
When Pan Hong heard this, she cried out "ouch" and opened her eyes wide.
"We're not Yan Xiuqun here to perform. Xiao He, why did you bring your artists to participate in the challenge? Don't you know that all the artists who participated in the challenge ended up in trouble?"
She looked over at me reproachfully and began to lecture me.
Xiao He nodded slightly.
"I've heard a little."
"Then why are you here? Even if you don't get the notice, there will be opportunities in the future. It's so reckless. What if Huo An..."
Pan Hong sighed, then smiled as she looked Huo An over and over again. "I think he's a good prospect, too. How about this? I have a good relationship with the director, so I'll help you talk to him about removing Huo An for now. It's not shameful to back down at the last minute."
As a professional master of backing down, Huo An became eager to do something when he heard this.
Xiao He just glanced at him.
"Thank you. No need. Director Zhao has already arranged the process. It's better not to change it."
Pan Hong: "That's because you don't know her well. Given my relationship with her, it's just a matter of a few words."
As the two were talking, Director Zhao walked over quickly.
Pan Hong seemed to want to prove that she had a good relationship with the director, so she raised her hand and greeted him with a smile.
"Long time no see, Director Zhao. Thank you for inviting our Yan Xiuqun to perform. His new song has been very well received recently. He's sure to be a big hit once he takes the stage."
Director Zhao just nodded slightly indifferently, then looked at Xiao He with a happy smile.
"Just now I was wondering why you hadn't come yet. Everyone is looking for you."
Xiao He asked curiously, "Did the process chart get blown onto the roof again?"
"No." Director Zhao smiled and said, "Everyone is still thinking about the skills you showed last time. They all think that if you can come and participate in the challenge, you will definitely succeed."
"I can't participate for the time being, but I brought Huo An here to try it out. I won't let you down."
Hearing this, Director Zhao looked at Huo An carefully.
"Now that you say that, I'm even more excited. Go get ready. Huo An is the first one in the second half. Just let me know if you need anything."
The two were talking enthusiastically, but Pan Hong was a little shocked.
Director Zhao became famous for producing the show "Speed". Many celebrities wanted to be the halftime performance guests, but after several attempts, none of them succeeded.
Even for her, it was a piece of cake. The program team took the initiative to come to her and help Yan Xiuquan get this resource.
Just now, Pan Hong swore that she was very familiar with Director Zhao, but now she ignored her and was flirting with Xiao He instead. It was more painful than a slap in the face.
What I can't understand even more is how Xiao He, an 18th-tier low-level agent, can be so familiar with Director Zhao?
Until Xiao He took Huo An away, she immediately saw the opportunity and spoke:
"Director Zhao, with Huo An's physical condition, today's show will definitely be exciting."
Seeing that Director Zhao didn't say anything, he smiled and said, "You may not know, he just looks good, but he's actually very delicate. Many people online say he's too feminine. It was a good decision for you to invite Huo An to participate in the challenge!"
At the end, he didn't forget to praise her, but Director Zhao didn't buy it.
After so many years in the entertainment industry, she could clearly hear the sarcasm in Pan Hong's words.
"I didn't invite him." Director Zhao said.
Pan Hong was stunned.
"That is..."
Director Zhao said directly: "I originally planned to let Huo An be the guest performer, but Xiao He said he wanted to participate in the challenge, so he withdrew. So I asked you to perform."
In short, Yan Xiuqun is the alternative because Huo An gave up, so the program team had to find him as a second choice.
Yan Xiuqun's expression suddenly turned very ugly.
Pan Hong suppressed her displeasure and waited until Director Zhao left before she began to curse under her breath.
"Who the hell is Huo An? He's such a nobody, and we still invite him? Is Director Zhao crazy? We're second-tier stars! We're giving her face by being on her show. How ungrateful!"
Seeing Yan Xiuqun remained silent, she continued:
"Go on stage later and perform well. After you finish singing, I will buy a trending search to hype you up. You are not on the same level as them now. Even though you are on the same show, the effect will be completely different. When the time comes, you will be on the trending search and gain fame, while Huo An will be scolded to the point of quitting the entertainment industry, and he won't even have time to cry."
Hearing this, Yan Xiuqun's expression finally improved a little.
Half an hour later, "Speed" officially began its live broadcast.
Although it is noon now, there are still many viewers in the live broadcast room, and many people watch the show while eating.
In the first half of the challenge, several contestants performed poorly and fell into the water one after another before they could pass a few levels. Their funny postures made the audience burst into laughter, and the live broadcast room was extremely lively.
After the fifth contestant finished his challenge, it was time for halftime.
As soon as Yan Xiuquan came on stage, the audience burst into cheers.
He is indeed very popular now, and there are many fans at the scene who came specifically for him, holding light boards and standing in the crowd.
The music started and Yan Xiuquan took the microphone and began to sing.
The singing voice coming from the speakers was gorgeous and elegant, but he was actually lip-syncing and didn't even turn on the microphone.
Xiao He was close enough to hear Yan Xiuqun's original voice clearly, causing his pupils to tremble.
Is this okay?
With such an unpleasant voice, how can you still release songs?
There must be three or four tuners who are exhausted, right?
She listened for a while and said to Huo An silently: "I suddenly feel that your singing is actually quite good."
Huo An's eyes filled with tears on the spot, he was deeply moved.
"Captain, with your words, I'd be willing to run a hundred laps."
Xiao He took out a small notebook and wrote it down.
"Okay, I'll arrange it when I get back."
“…I just said it casually.”
Xiao He: "I took it seriously."
The corners of Huo An's mouth twitched, and he never dared to be easily moved again.
After the song ended, Yan Xiuqun left the stage to cheers.
As soon as I came down, I looked at my agent.
Pan Hong whispered, "Don't worry, everything has been arranged. It will be on the hot search soon."
"What about Xiao He?"
"The person she brings will be on stage next. Let's not leave yet. It's a good opportunity to take a look."
Yan Xiuqun nodded and walked towards the audience.
At the same time, the staff came to inform Xiao He.
"It's your turn, come on stage."
On the stage, the host actively livened up the atmosphere and asked Huo An a few simple questions according to the procedure.
"Are you confident about today's game?"
Huo An looked at the checkpoints and felt scared.
The contestants who just passed the level were all talented and capable, but they all ended up failing in the end. How could a rookie like him compete with them?
I started to back out again.
"I don't have confidence. I'm just here to join in the fun. The important thing is to participate. I'll be very happy if I can pass the first level."
Upon hearing this, a burst of "whoa" sounds immediately came from all around.
The host smiled awkwardly and suddenly said:
"I heard that Huo An's agent is here today as well. Agent, before Huo An leaves, do you have any words of encouragement you'd like to say to him?"
The camera moved over and Xiao He appeared in the camera.
She looked at Huo An, who had already started to play badly, and spoke slowly:
"I brought my cute little pet today to cheer for Huo An."
Huo An's head buzzed and his whole body stiffened instantly.
He changed his previous relaxed attitude.
The body tenses up.
The host didn't notice the change in him and asked curiously, "Cute pet? What kind of pet is it?"
Xiao He smiled: "A very cute little hamster."
Huo stood straight. An: Thank you. I'm starting to get scared.
The host raised his voice.
"It seems the agent is also nervous about this challenge. Okay, then let's not waste any more time talking. The challenge begins right now!"
After saying that, he picked up the whistle hanging on his chest and blew it hard.
As the whistle sounded, Huo An, who had just acted like it was none of his business whether he won or not, suddenly rushed out.
No.
To be precise, he took off directly!
