Chapter 054
The information found by 2874 is limited. After all, the two have not been together for a long time and have not made any advance preparations, so this melon cannot be revealed.
After reading all the information, the two students were pure and kind people. Xu Jingning was happy for them, but also felt a little regretful: "What do you think would happen if I took advantage of their passionate love and encouraged them to go public?"
2874 shivered: "Ning Ning, it's illegal."
This sentence is illegal. To expand on it, it means that it violates the ethical regulations of the melon-eating system. The melons revealed by the host must be natural and cannot be forced.
After all, a forced melon is not sweet. Not only will you not gain energy, you will also lose money.
This is also the reason why in the past, those who joined the group to watch the show had to go through the 2874 test, and only those real CPs with stable relationships and public intentions were exposed.
In the past, it had no worries that Xu Jingning would do something evil, but now it was different. Their Ningning had become rich...
"Okay, okay." After 2874's desperate pleading, Xu Jingning put his thoughts aside and asked, "What about Luo Yingying?"
2874: "What do you mean?"
"Even someone as cautious as her could accidentally let the secret slip. It seems like those two didn't try to hide their relationship. I think there's a chance."
Xu Jingning shared his plan: "What I thought was that we could ask their opinions in advance, and just throw out a suspense, letting everyone know that there is a real couple among the guests, but not saying who it is directly, and let netizens guess. This way, the popularity is actually higher than announcing it directly."
After the explanation, 2874 also became active: "That's right! As expected, you are good at keeping people in suspense!"
The next day, the performance was recorded live.
Due to various reasons, this round of rehearsal and material collection was postponed to now. The five groups of members were once again invited to the film and television city. It was rare that the groups were close to each other, so the program team decided to change the original separate interviews into onlookers and observations.
All the guests who received this news said: ...This is really inhumane.
That is to say, whenever a group of members is rehearsing, the rest of the guests will be watching! What is the difference between this and being socially dead in public!
But Director Xu seemed to be blind to everyone's gazes. After making his announcement, he began to push the process forward in an inhumane tone: "So, do you guys want to rank yourselves or do we draw lots to decide?"
Of course, the best thing is to die early and be reborn early. Xiang Yuan, who was assigned to Xing Yu's group this round, was the first to bear the brunt: "Our group will be the first to go!"
Someone took the lead, and the following groups pretended to be polite to each other and then quickly confirmed it.
Xu Jingning had some other plans, and he lost the opportunity when he was distracted. Unexpectedly, Ye Zhiliu, who was quite energetic before, was also standing there in a daze for some reason, not to mention Yan Xun, who had always been noncompetitive.
So their group ended up tragically at the end.
Being ranked last means that all their rehearsal processes are destined to be the most deeply remembered by everyone.
Xu Jingning suddenly remembered some bad things: "..."
He couldn't help but break his guard: "Why don't you grab it, Ye Zi?"
"Ah? I've been waiting for you." Ye Zhiliu scratched his head stupidly.
[Hahahaha, the game hasn't even started yet, so why is there already an internal conflict within the team? ]
[Eh~ I feel like Ningning's reaction is not right. Is there something good that we can't see? ]
The two of them stared at each other, creating the first laugh point in today's live broadcast. Then Director Xu began to control the situation and shouted for everyone to go to the location.
The filming didn't pay much attention to the scene change, which gave Xu Jingning a chance. He turned around and saw that the members of Zhou's group and Xie's group were indeed mixed together, and the two of them stood together unconsciously. Xu Jingning quietly slipped behind the two of them and asked in a very light voice: "Brother Heng, Sister Xiaoshu, can I ask for a favor?"
Xiao Yiheng and Ling Shu didn't expect Xu Jingning to come over suddenly. After a moment of stunned silence, they immediately remembered what happened last night. Then, considering Xu Jingning's personality of being a spectator, they guessed what he wanted to ask.
I thought the two would be rather reserved and resistant, and would have to spend some time discussing it, but Ling Shu smiled and replied, "If Ning Ning wants to tell others, we don't mind."
Xu Jingning was slightly stunned.
Is this sister so easy to talk to?
Ling Shu is a year older than him and debuted several years earlier. Having been in this circle for a long time, he can see many things more clearly: "But now is not a good time to announce it. We don't really care whether it is public or not, but since Ning Ning came to us, you must have something you want to tell us, right?"
It's comfortable to chat with smart people. Xu Jingning immediately and decisively told him his plan in full.
After knowing his plan, Xiao Yiheng and Ling Shu looked at each other and were both very surprised.
Although they don't mind publicizing things, as actors, they more or less hope that people pay more attention to their careers than their private lives.
Xu Jingning's method not only saved them from unnecessary attention, but also gave them the opportunity to officially go public.
"Ah, now we are taking advantage of your popularity, Ningning." Ling Shu covered his mouth and laughed, "How embarrassing!"
With so many guests currently on the show, it is undeniable that the most popular person is of course Xu Jingning, and the romance confirmed by his mouth will surely make the audience have high expectations.
"How can this be called riding on the popularity? I am also using you to maintain my image, so of course we should win together." Xu Jingning sincerely sent his blessings, "I also hope that the two of you can always be happy."
They all laughed out loud, very touched: "Thank you."
After this matter was resolved, Xu Jingning would start thinking about finding a time to "accidentally" leak the news.
Before he could figure it out, he arrived at the first group's recording location.
“Wow, what a beautiful set!”
Xing Yu's group's theme is a very clichéd interstellar war fantasy. They even have fairly high-end mechas in their shed. After Director Xu repeatedly reminded them that these are just decorative accessories and have no substantive function, the barrage of comments began to ask the show's crew to produce peripheral products.
Director Xu's requirement for this round of filming can be summed up in one sentence: rehearse the least proficient segments, so as to expand the audience's lower limit of expectations and achieve stunning effects in the official performance.
Similarly, the live broadcast at this time will not be as accurate as during the formal performance, where the direction, angle, and switching time of the camera are all precisely timed. Basically, whatever is captured is what is captured. After all, the purpose of their live broadcast is just to see all the participating guests clearly.
Xiang Yuan and Chen Zi had a good understanding of each other. Although it was the segment they were least proficient in, Chen Zi was very good at saving the situation. If several subsequent mentors had not commented on the script and pointed out their impromptu performance, no one would have known that they had made up a segment in the middle after forgetting the words.
The five mentors took turns commenting and finally came to a unanimous assessment: commendable but room for improvement.
The second group is Jiang He’s group.
It just so happened that the two groups' venues were not far apart, so it didn't take the large group long to get there.
Xu Jingning had heard about Jiang He's famous ferocity when training new recruits, but today he officially witnessed his true lethality.
In fact, the cooperation between Luo Yingying and Chen Luo was quite good, but I don’t know if it was because so many people were watching or what, Luo Yingying couldn’t quite get into the mood, and she kept getting stuck on words and pausing several times, which really messed up her mentality. She was able to persevere until the end, and everyone couldn’t help but applaud her.
But the instructors did not expect the students to be so supportive, and each one looked more serious than the other.
Shen Luo probably knew that their evaluation would not be good, so he explained in advance: "It was because I didn't perform well that Luo Yingying was nervous and couldn't get into the role."
“It’s great that she can stick with it.”
"Oh? The previous group's lines were more difficult than yours, how come they were able to do it so smoothly?"
Jiang He frowned and crossed his arms, his face looked bad: "Not forgetting the lines and not being stage fright are the basic requirements for actors. If you can't even do this, you'd better go home as soon as possible. I won't use actors who make such basic mistakes in my movies."
The originally warm atmosphere suddenly dropped to freezing point.
Xu Jingning wanted to say something, but Yan Xun stopped her in time: "Let him talk, he won't stop until he finishes."
After all, Jiang He had never been on a variety show, so he didn't pay much attention to those complicated thoughts. He treated it as training a younger generation on the set, and his words became more and more sharp.
After she finished her last sentence, Luo Yingying started to cry.
[Ah, I don't have much impression of this student. It seems like I just met him today. He cries when the instructor scolds him. Is he so fragile?]
[Don’t the people above have any empathy? Jiang He scolded you so harshly, and you wouldn’t cry? ]
[No way, Jiang He can also curse? It sounds bad, but he didn’t curse wrong, right? Earlier, Xiang Yuan and Chen Zi also forgot the lyrics, but they reacted quickly and it didn’t seem out of place at all, Luo Yingying emmm]
[Netizens, please don’t be too harsh. It’s not easy for this little girl…]
[Although Jiang He was being so harsh for her own good, after all, she was in her group and she made such a basic mistake as forgetting the lyrics.]
Just when the comments were noisy and no one could tell who was right or wrong, a figure suddenly flashed across the screen, momentarily attracting the attention of the netizens who were arguing.
When they looked clearly, they found that the person who ran up was Xu Jingning.
[Ningning is really fine. Did he go over to comfort people? ]
[Is that right? This look is so gentle]
[Wait, his expression seems familiar! Why do I feel like it's not that simple! ]
"Don't cry, don't cry, it's just a rehearsal. The performance hasn't started yet. The mistakes we make now are for prevention later."
Xu Jingning first poured out a lot of words to calm people down, and then he changed the subject and said, "Let's make a deal. Tell me who the two people you saw dating last night were, and I'll teach you some unique techniques to avoid mistakes."
Luo Yingying was choked by a sentence and forgot to cry: "..."
The instructors and students watching from the side: "..."
Netizens: “…”
[Awesome, you still remember to eat melons at this time, Xu Jingning, you are worthy of it]
[Ah? Ah? What is he talking about? Am I 2G or am I losing my memory? ]
[Wait, is there someone on a date? ? ? Who is dating whom? ! ! ! ]
[Madro Yingying, I apologize to you! Please tell me quickly that I must eat this melon! ]
[First, let’s exclude Yan Xun, Xu Jingning, and a few mentors who have relationships. Okay, let’s just match the rest up. I foresee that the CP fans of the actors in various circles are going to go crazy.]
