Lu Yuan was stumbling around filming during the day, and was either NGed by Fatty Wei or NGed himself, and then continued filming with stumbling around...

In the evening, he would think about the script and practice his acting skills in his spare time. When he went to the bathroom, he would shout a few times to practice his pronunciation. He would even read books on accompaniment and pronunciation while sitting on the toilet. While eating, Lu Yuan would also listen to the songs recorded by Wang Long...

This is a day in Lu Yuan’s life.

Lu Yuan is very busy.

Very fulfilling.

Very inspiring!

Lu Yuan doesn't like this kind of fulfillment.

He is not the kind of person who is very hardworking and motivated.

He didn't know why he was so busy. The current development was obviously completely different from what he had imagined before. He could just sit back and relax...

However, he found that he really couldn't be a salted fish.

Why?

He has to pay for his own misunderstood boasting.

He didn't want to disappoint Wang Long because of his face...

What does it take to release an album?

Need money.

Does he have it?

He had it before but now he really doesn't have it anymore.

And the movie went completely over budget…

It was really unexpected that the first "Buried" was shot so economically. Lu Yuan thought that "The Wanderer" would also be very economical, but the disappointing thing was that this "The Wanderer" directly trapped Lu Yuan.

Damn, he is now poorer than a pauper...

By the time the movie is finished, he might be in debt.

He felt like crying.

But should the film be made? We have already invested so much, how can we give up halfway?

shoot!

At least after the movie is released, it might make some money back, but at the very least it won’t lose money…

If you don't want to lose money, you should at least act like it's real! Is it okay if your acting skills are not good?

"Capital City" is a bloody example of high investment and low box office...

Do you want to participate in "The King of Masked Singer"?

join!

Why not participate if you can get paid, and the appearance fee will be higher as time goes by!

You want to earn money from the finals? If you want to get into the finals, you have to at least sing like a real singer, right?

So, Lu Yuan found himself being pushed by an inexplicable trend into an unknown distance, and even had a feeling that he could not see the future.

He didn't want to work hard, but he had to.

He has to be motivated!

Lu Yuan contracted a disease called poverty.

He wanted to have a sad and sorrowful moment...

But he found that he didn't even have time to feel sentimental.

October 26th.

rain.

"Fatty, today I..."

"I know. I won't be in Hengdian today and tomorrow. I have to take two more days off."

"Um……"

"Got it. Our crew will take advantage of your absence to shoot some outdoor scenes... and edit out the flaws in the early stages. This show seems to be a two-on-two PK segment, right?"

"yes."

"Crush him and get more bonuses!"

"Well, wait, I didn't go there for the bonus. I'm not that kind of person. This needs to be corrected. We are different now!"

"Oh... yes, you are doing this for the same dream as Wang Long."

"Yeah, it's a dream."

“The dream of making money…”

"Stop being so realistic, okay?"

“…”

Lu Yuan left early in the morning.

Fatty Wei looked at Lu Yuan's back as he dragged his luggage away again with a serious look, and there was a hint of envy in his eyes.

This is the template for people who reach the pinnacle of success!

He is talented, sings well, has a goddess girlfriend, and has a company...

After a moment of envy, Fatty Wei suddenly felt a little inferior. Then, as if he had thought of something, he quickly shook his head and subconsciously looked in the mirror...

He feels comfortable!

Although I may not be as good as Lu Manzi in other aspects, but in terms of appearance, I am still streets ahead of him.

Why……

It seems that I can only rely on my looks to make a living now, which is really annoying!

I also want to make a living by relying on my talent like Lu Manzi!

After feeling comfortable, there was a sudden sigh and a feeling of emotion.

…

The stage of "The King of Masked Singer" is actually very tragic.

There were more than 20 contestants, but more than 10 were eliminated in two episodes, and most of them were unmasked...

There are now only nine contestants left on the stage, six of whom have already taken off their masks, leaving only three still wearing masks.

They are "Red Goat", "White Pig" and "Red Dog"...

The audience gave the three people these three nicknames according to the animals on their masks.

All the audience's eyes were fixed on these three contestants. The variety show section on the Internet gave special coverage to these three masked contestants and methodically analyzed their identities and the songs they were going to sing from all aspects. The descriptions were simply dazzling.

The popularity of the three singers is naturally rising rapidly. Not only do they occupy the top three positions in the variety show section, they also have their own place in the singer section...

They were an instant hit!

Of course, if we were to rank the popularity of these three people, it would naturally be "Hong Gouzi", the dog-head singer from before.

Countless speculations were flying around, and Zhou Shuai once again posted on Weibo to reveal that the dog-head singer was Lu Yuan!

Zhou Shuai swore and even put his future on the line...

Very sincere and very true!

Unfortunately, no one believes in Zhou Shuai anymore.

The harder Zhou Shuai tried to expose the truth on Weibo, the more curses he received and the less people believed him.

Lu Manzi is still filming a movie in Hengdian, and now you tell me that he comes here to sing again?

How is that possible!

Whether you believe it or not, netizens don’t believe it.

Zhou Shuai, can you fulfill the boast you made before?

Should I live broadcast or wear women's clothes?

This is a very sad story for Zhou Shuai.

Lu Yuan didn't care about all that. He just wanted to finish the competition as soon as possible and get the prize money.

The best is to go directly to the finals.

When Lu Yuan came to the Xiangnan TV Building again, he found that the lobby of the Xiangnan TV Building was filled with various advertising pictures. Among them, the picture of himself wearing a dog-head mask was placed in the middle, posing in a very cool POSS...

Lu Yuan stood under the promotional picture for a long time and acted cocky for a long time.

He had never felt so handsome.

Then he struck a pose imitating the man in the promotional picture.

"Director Lu, what are you doing?"

"Ahem, ahem, stretch your muscles. I was a little tired when I got off the plane, so I'm going to stretch for a while."

"Stretch your muscles? Oh, that's right. We are really tired after getting off the plane. Let's go to the training room and learn some moves. This will help us stretch our muscles and will be useful when we go on stage."

"Ohhh, okay."

When Liu Shuyao walked out, she happened to see Lu Yuan posing in the middle of the hall. Although she didn't understand what it was, she thought it was very impressive.

She was naturally curious, but she understood after hearing Lu Yuan say that he was stretching his muscles.

Well, I guess Director Lu is practicing Kung Fu like the Five Animal Play. It’s normal that I haven’t seen it, right?

She looked at Lu Yuan and made some arrangements for him...

After Lu Yuan coughed lightly, he followed Liu Shuyao into the training room with a little embarrassment.

Although it is a crossover singing competition, after the third episode, those contestants with poor singing skills and those who were just filling in the numbers had been eliminated. The remaining ones were strong opponents who were close to professional singers, so the performance style on stage also began to gradually approach that of professional singers.

Therefore, the movements on stage and some simple accompaniment dances are also an important part.

"He's coming?"

"Well, yes, here he is. Let me introduce him. He is..."

"Ah... is it Brother Lu?"

"Um, hello..."

When he arrived at the training room, Lu Yuan saw a girl in plain clothes. The girl looked a little impatient at first, but when she saw Lu Yuan, she was instantly surprised and hurriedly came up to him as if she had seen her idol.

After looking at the girl, Lu Yuan was a little confused, and then his expression became a little weird.

The girl is Zhou Yao, the assistant teacher of Yanying who plays the piano in the "Meet You" cafe...

Lu Yuan never thought that he would meet her here...

This is a bit speechless.

"Do you know each other?"

"Of course I know him. Brother Lu is one of the people I admire the most! I'm so lucky today." Zhou Yao looked at Lu Yuan excitedly.

At first, she was somewhat reluctant to teach these non-professional contestants. After all, she didn't like teaching basic movements. And when she heard that the contestant she was going to teach might never have been exposed to stage dancing, the scene of teaching children movements emerged in her mind.

This left her speechless.

But her relatives were in the program crew, and they really hoped that she could contribute and not waste resources, so she had no choice but to accept it.

However, she didn't expect that this person was actually Lu Yuan!

She actually wants to teach Lu Yuan!

This was definitely a surprise within a surprise. She was very glad that she did not reject it directly just because she didn’t like it!

She felt that today was her lucky day.

…

"Brother Lu, come, do this bending movement with me."

"Oh, okay."

"Brother Lu, look at my movements carefully. In the mirror, I do it this way. Yes, yes, take your time, take your time..."

"Is that so? Oops, I think I sprained my waist."

"Ah, Brother Lu, let me help you press it, here?"

"yes."

"Brother Lu, are you feeling better?"

"Better."

"Oh, let's continue."

"OK."

"Brother Lu, you're using too much force, let's be gentler..."

"oh……"

"It's getting fiercer again..."

"ah……"

After a short rest of half an hour, Lu Yuan began to practice some stage movements with Zhou Yao.

Zhou Yao taught Lu Yuan very attentively. Although she knew that Lu Yuan did not have much time to practice, she still patiently told Lu Yuan some precautions on the stage, which movements were best and which movements were indecent...

Lu Yuan listened very carefully, but after listening to it once, his mind suddenly became confused and he wanted to yawn for no reason.

This feeling is very similar to when the teacher was lecturing when I was in school, it was very uncomfortable.

However, seeing how serious and careful Zhou Yao was, Lu Yuan didn't dare to yawn, for fear of dampening Zhou Yao's enthusiasm.

Finally, after finishing her long speech and when Lu Yuan couldn't stand it anymore, Zhou Yao started to demonstrate the basic movements to Lu Yuan...

Lu Yuan was very serious. He swore that he was learning more seriously than ever before. However, the moves he learned were really weird. Even though Zhou Yao demonstrated the same moves more than ten times, Lu Yuan found that he still couldn't do it.

He looked at his ugly self in the mirror and was speechless...

This shouldn't be the case...

Is it that bad?

His piano teacher said he was talented, he had a singing talent and a good voice, and he had an extraordinary talent for acting, but dancing...

It's really eye-catching...

Zhou Yao also realized Lu Yuan's problem, but she was not discouraged. She felt that it didn't matter if he learned slowly. As long as she taught him seriously and patiently, Lu Yuan would be able to learn...

But after learning that Lu Yuan could only do each movement reluctantly in the evening, Zhou Yao finally revealed a bitter smile.

She finally didn't know what to say.

"Well... am I really not talented in this area?" Lu Yuan looked at Zhou Yao who was sweating profusely and coughed subconsciously.

He felt a little embarrassed.

Yes, I clearly remembered the movement in my mind, but after learning it, I couldn't describe it in words.

"No, no... Brother Lu... It's okay... Some people are a little slow at the beginning, but they will get better as they learn. You just need some time now. It's not that bad... At least, at least... At least it can still move..." Zhou Yao looked at Lu Yuan and said the lies and comforting words that she hated to say the most...

Lies and words of comfort are so embarrassing to hear...

To be honest, Lu Yuan is not completely without talent, but he is simply not that kind of material...

Zhou Yao had never seen such a deceptive person since she was a child.

However, she felt that she could not discourage Lu Yuan. At least Lu Yuan was very serious when learning dance and when listening to her explanation...

At least this is much better than others, right?

…

"Director Lu, I think you finally look a bit like a human today..."

"What! You..."

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry, Director Lu, please don’t misunderstand me. I’m not scolding you, but… how should I put it, singing, writing songs, lyrics, composing music, screenwriting, directing, artist, writing poetry… before, you looked like you were proficient in everything, like an omnipotent existence. I almost thought you were a god-like figure, but your dance moves today made me feel that you are indeed an ordinary person… well, at least you have shortcomings…”

“…”

Lu Yuan didn't know what to say.

He had mixed feelings at the moment.

As desperate as the whistling wind and cold water...

Liu Shuyao is smiling.

Teasing Lu Yuan.

After seeing Lu Yuan's training results today, she finally gave up.

She thought it would be OK if Lu Yuan maintained his previous level of movements when he went on stage...

As for this action...

Forget it.

This action might have a special effect if used in a comedy skit, but it will definitely increase the score if used on the stage of this kind of competition.

Don't get me wrong, it's not about raising the score, it's about getting the lowest score that's embarrassing...

This makes it very stiff.

Some people are indeed talented in some aspects, but are hopeless in other aspects.

Lu Yuan felt that he was that kind of person.

Although Zhou Yao spoke very well and encouraged him, Lu Yuan knew that his own character was really disappointing.

My actions are really...

To put it nicely, it's not harmonious, to put it bluntly, it's simply unsightly...

If I were to go on stage like this...

sweat.

Are you sure you won’t hit me with a mineral water bottle and make me cry?

…

The next day, the "Crossover Masked Singer" competition arrived as scheduled.

All the spectators were waiting in front of the TV nervously for the game to start.

As the contestants walked into the venue one by one, the audience screamed excitedly.

Every contestant seems to have their own fans...

Lu Yuan was also in the lounge preparing to go on stage.

But at this time...

"Wow! An Xiao!"

"She is An Xiao!"

"An Xiao is here, she's here!"

"Wow, this is incredible! She actually came to help?"

"She is a guest performer?"

"That's not right. I've never heard of a guest performer before."

"Um, why is she in the contestant lounge...she seems to be holding a throat lozenge in her hand?"

"What!"

"She actually gave the throat lozenges to the dog-head contestant?"

"this……"

"What's going on?"

"Oh my god, could it be An Xiao's rumored boyfriend?"

"this……"

"Oh my god, this is so exciting!"
