"Hey, Ah Hong, wake up and stop drinking. Your phone has been ringing non-stop since just now."
"It's ringing...? But who else would look for me at this time..." Sister Hong laughed at herself. Due to the hangover, her mind was a little unclear. She just reached out her hand vaguely and slowly to grope for her cell phone. However, she stumbled and kicked over several beer cans piled at her feet, making a series of "clang, clang, clang" sounds.
After a while, the phone, which had been ringing for a long time, was finally picked up. Sister Hong's weak and hoarse voice came from the other end: "Hello, who is this...?"
"It's me, Sister Hong." A soft and cheerful voice came from the phone. Sister Hong was startled by the familiar voice. She coughed a few times and quickly cheered herself up to look quite energetic.
"Oh, it's Xiaoyu! I was wondering who it was. Sorry, I was busy and didn't pick up in time. Is there something wrong? Do you need money for lunch? Do you want me to pay for it for you..."
However, this time, before Sister Hong could finish her words, Yu Yu gently but forcefully interrupted her, "I know everything, Sister Hong, there's no need to hide it from me."
Instantly, the phone fell into silence for a long time. After an unknown amount of time, Sister Hong finally whispered softly, "You know... I'm sorry, your sister Hong is so embarrassed, so I didn't dare to tell you before."
"Yeah, I know."
"However, it's not like what's been spread online. This is my own business. It has nothing to do with you, Xiaoyu. I went against the company because I couldn't stand it anymore."
"Yeah, I know."
"I'll be fine in a while, don't worry. At worst, I'll just quit this job. It's not like I won't be able to eat."
"Well, I know everything, but... Sister Hong, don't you want to see the gold shine?"
"Xiaoyu, what does this mean..."
"That's exactly what it says. Sister Hong, I'm now formally inviting you to be Will's sister's sole agent. Would you be willing?"
Will's sister? Who is she? Wait, isn't Will's sister the one... the one who caused such a stir this morning? Suddenly, Sister Hong couldn't help but think of Yu Yu's resume: he was born abroad and lived there until adulthood. Suddenly, something seemed to dawn on her, and her eyes were filled with disbelief. "Xiaoyu, you... could it be, could it be, you are..."
"Well, I am, just as you think. Besides, it's not that gold will shine one day, but... I am gold to begin with. Am I right, Sister Hong?"
Yu Yu's soft yet powerful voice came, and although it didn't have any particularly high pitch, it made Sister Hong burst into laughter. All her previous depression was swept away, and she couldn't help but laugh for a long time. It took a while for her to find her voice again. "That's for sure. Gold must shine. How can I not make an appearance at such a wonderful opportunity? But this time, we can't just make an appearance casually. Do you need me to find someone to promote it, Xiaoyu?"
"Well... I have some ideas of my own in this regard. Sister Hong, would you like to listen to them?"
Time passed in the blink of an eye. During this period, the entertainment pages were always hot and the atmosphere was filled with an indescribable excitement.
Especially as the world superstar Joel is about to appear on the show "Survival on Desert Island", major platforms have been building up topics one after another, and many people have directly posted various beautiful photos of superstar Joel.
But Joel, who was on a plane heading to the "Desert Island Survival" filming location, looked glum, causing his accompanying agent to roll his eyes. "Weren't you looking forward to going on this show? You were dying to work overtime, but now you look so dead."
No, you don't understand. He's so excited to go on the show not because he really wants to be there, but because he wants to see his adorable and charming little sister. God knows, he must have been so happy after seeing that Facebook post from big brother Will. Does that mean he can spend a lot of time on a deserted island with his little sister? Even his big brother has announced his little sister's existence, so can he too?
Just imagining that scene filled Joel with excitement. But…those pesky guys! Why couldn't he let his younger sister go with him? Wasn't she going to be on the show anyway? He could just postpone everything! He could just pull a few more all-nighters to finish a few announcements!
But listen to what those nasty guys say:
"Forget about it, second brother. My little sister has me as her own support. I'm afraid that if my little sister appears on the same stage with you, it will lower the level of my lovely little sister."
"???" Holy shit, what the hell is that? What do you mean by lowering the standard? Is he not a superstar enough? Is his face not handsome enough? A lot of women are crying out for his face, asshole!
"It's not your face that's the problem, brother. It's the problem here." Bill showed a friendly smile, pointed to his head with an extremely 'worried' look, and looked confused.
“!!!” Holy shit, isn’t this bastard just a bit smarter?! There’s nothing wrong with his brain, his mind is perfectly normal. The problem is you guys with insanely high IQs!
Seeing that the three brothers seemed to be about to fight across the screen again, Yu Yu felt helpless and amused, especially when he saw the second brother Joel looking furious. Finally, he chuckled and comforted him, "It's okay, second brother, you go first. Everyone in the program crew is very nice, and there shouldn't be any problem getting along. I'll follow in a few days... Also, second brother, don't stay up late to finish the announcement, it's not good for your health. The handsome second brother is the best looking."
Wow, his little sister is just a little angel, that’s what people should say, totally unlike the other two losers!
Feeling his spirit lifted, Joel finally set off with a sense of contentment. But having said that, life without his younger sister was incredibly difficult, and it would have been nice to have someone to keep him company.
With this in mind, Joel couldn't wait to call someone the moment he got off the plane. After being hung up on several times, the call was finally picked up. Justin's ruthless and extremely cold voice came out, "If I remember correctly, our cooperation has ended since yesterday, Joel."
The implication was that we would have little chance to meet in the future, so please stop bothering me! But to Joel, who considered Justin a good friend, these words had a completely different meaning.
"That's perfect! I have a survival show here that you can participate in. It's quite interesting. Do you want to come over and film for a few days? At most, I will, at most..." Joel gritted his teeth, looking determined, "I will also... allow you to look at my lovely and charming little sister a few more times!"
"..." Justin had an indifferent expression. He ruthlessly hung up the phone with a man he could no longer tolerate, and secretly vowed to blacklist that guy in the next few months!
So, the miserable Joel could only have a depressed face. At the urging of his agent, he finally took a helicopter to the coast and prepared to take a boat to the filming location of the program crew.
The filming location of the "Desert Island Survival" program crew is still on the small island of the second stop. In fact, according to the original plan, they should now be rushing to the deserted island of the third stop, but due to the increased difficulty of survival and the escalation of internal control conflicts, the entire itinerary plan is difficult to continue filming.
It can be said that the current shot is split into two, the actions of the four people including Bo Tianwang, and the filming of newcomer Zhou Ying.
In fact, both Director Zhang and the members have tried to ease the atmosphere. After all, they are still filming. No matter what the situation is outside, the professional ethics they should abide by tell them that the show must go on.
In the end, it was the older actor Gu who spoke first, expressing his intention to ease the situation. After all, no matter who it is, it takes a period of adjustment.
"We can apologize for Xiaobo's emotional outburst, but Xiaozhou, you can't possibly survive alone. It's not in your best interest, and you've also done some things wrong. Everyone's already quite sensitive due to hunger, fatigue, and other survival issues. Discouragement can easily trigger negative emotions. We can work things out again, what do you think..."
But before Actor Gu could finish his words, Zhou Ying had already rejected him with a cold face, as if she was not afraid of falling out at all.
"No, there's no need. First, I'm a good person, and my fans think I'm a good person too. I'm genuine. Second, am I wrong? What's wrong with the members complaining about not being able to find food? I'm just a girl. Girls are naturally weaker, and it's harder for them to survive and find food. Is it wrong to rely on my companions and make demands on them? And lastly, you're not the only ones I have as companions. There's also Joel. He should be here today."
What does that mean? Does it mean you're not even willing to offer a superficial compliment? If that's the case, why did you bother joining the show and forcefully force out their talented members if you dislike it so much?
This time, even the usually magnanimous actor Gu was a little angry.
It has to be said that the current situation is a bit serious. Even Zhou Ying's assistant couldn't help but say with some concern, "Sister Ying, is this not a good idea for us? I know you're angry, but if you do this, your traffic and fans..."
"What are you afraid of? There are some things money can't solve." Zhou Ying said with a nonchalant expression, "I only joined this show because it seemed to have decent ratings. Who knew it would be such a rubbish show? I'm tired and hungry, and it's not pretty at all. I wouldn't want to stay any longer. I'll just say 'bye' to get some traffic. If Joel hadn't come all the way here for me..."
Zhou Ying couldn't help but beam with pride at the thought. She felt truly charming, even captivating Joel. Compared to that superstar, the likes of Bo Tianwang and Gu Yingdi were nothing. Their combined influence couldn't compare to Joel's. And who knows, maybe this opportunity would allow her to break into the international entertainment industry? And become an instant star?
When Zhou Ying thought of this, she couldn't help but get excited. Seeing that the time was almost up, she ignored Director Zhang's eye signals, took out her makeup bag, and touched up her makeup. After finishing, she took a beautiful selfie and uploaded it to Weibo, with the caption "I am also looking forward to someone's arrival."
As soon as this Weibo post was published, many comments popped up below, saying that Zhou Ying looked stunning today, and they claimed that they went back to watch the crappy show "Survival on a Deserted Island" just to see 'Yingying and Joel'. Otherwise, "Survival on a Deserted Island" was so ugly that they didn't want to watch it.
At this time, Joel's boat finally appeared in the sight of others and slowly approached the filming location. As soon as it arrived, Director Zhang stepped forward to contact Joel and gave some explanations related to the program.
After all, he is a professional. No matter how unhappy Joel was in front of his agent, once he got off the boat and faced the camera, he immediately turned into the superstar Joel again. He raised his dazzlingly handsome face and greeted Director Zhang. What he spoke was not English, but Chinese that was extremely fluent and had no accent.
"Hello, I'm Joel. Nice to meet you. I love this show. Please take care of me."
It has to be said that Joel's politeness and superstar demeanor immediately impressed Director Zhang, and he couldn't help but sigh that it was no wonder that such a person could become a world-class superstar. After greeting him, Director Zhang couldn't help but curiously ask the other party why his Chinese was so good.
"Ah, well, I'm actually a mix of Chinese and Western, but I look more like a Westerner. Maybe that's because I look more like my mother. But to be honest, my Chinese was terrible before. I only studied it so hard for one person."
Joel's words coincide with what he said when he first said that he wanted to make this "Desert Island Survival" show. It is more convincing to say that he came for someone rather than for the show, someone who is "really wanted to see and worth looking forward to."
Isn't this talking about her? At this time, Zhou Ying, who had been waiting for a long time, could no longer wait. She originally wanted to wait for the other party to come over, but now it seemed that Joel didn't notice her position. It didn't matter. She just went over generously.
Having made up her mind, Zhou Ying walked forward. Dressed exquisitely and with a beautiful smile, she walked like a peacock with its tail spread out. She walked in front of Joel, her face slightly red, and she spoke softly, "Hello, Mr. Joel, I'm Zhou Ying. I'm looking forward to seeing you."
Zhou Ying's words were a response to Joel's post on Facebook that he was looking forward to meeting someone.
Was he really here for Zhou Ying? It had to be said that for a moment, Director Zhang and the other members felt a bit of regret. It would have been much better if this superstar named Joel was just here to participate in their survival show. After all, he seemed like a funny, optimistic, and capable person. Filming a show with him might have been quite interesting.
However, just when everyone didn't want to watch or listen anymore, unexpectedly, the superstar replied with something that no one could have imagined. He only said:
"Also? Oh, I see. Miss Zhou, you're also my fan, right? Do you want an autograph? No problem, I'm very generous. Where do you want an autograph?"
Fans? Signatures?
No, that's not right. Isn't it said that superstar Joel came to participate in this show just for Zhou Ying?
After holding back for a while, Director Zhang beside him finally couldn't hold back and introduced her, "Excuse me, Mr. Joel, this Miss Zhou is also one of the artists participating in the show, not just anyone else. Don't you... recognize her?"
"Ah, sorry, I really didn't recognize her. I can count the number of Asian faces I recognize on five fingers," Joel said with a smile, "and because this lady's outfit was a bit, um... inappropriate, I misunderstood. I'm really sorry, I apologize. But, Miss Zhou... isn't this a desert island survival show? Your makeup and dress are so beautiful, won't it be easy to... blur later?"
“!”
“!!”
“!!!”
Oh no, they suddenly felt a little secretly happy. What was going on? They couldn't laugh. Absolutely not!
