Chapter 7 The National Film Emperor's Black-and-Red Actress 7 (Added)
Cao Yu pulled up someone else's wheat seedlings.
The homeowner came to their door cursing and swearing; the locals care most about their crops.
Xue Wanwan had disappeared somewhere, but Cao Yu had no choice but to bite the bullet and apologize to a country person who had insulted him in front of the audience.
His face had long since turned black.
I felt embarrassed and surprised, and I also felt that the production team was doing something inhumane.
Aside from the younger, brainless fans, everyone in the live chat knew that Cao Yu was in the wrong.
Because of his expression, his apology lacked sincerity.
My impression of him plummeted.
Most of them are ordinary people, and the Chinese people care about food the most from birth.
"Alright, all you want is money, right? I'll have my assistant pay you back." Cao Yu's expression made it seem like he thought the woman was trying to scam him.
It was because of this remark that the woman in front of me turned red with anger.
"When did I ever say I was asking you to pay me back? I just want to tell you that you're wrong, you've ruined my crops."
"You have absolutely no idea where you went wrong."
"You people, stop filming."
“I’m going to tell our captain to kick you out and not let you stay here.”
The crew couldn't sit still after the aunt said that.
Cao Yu turned around and left immediately.
The number of angry comments on the screen increased.
This is outrageous! What kind of attitude is this?
Exactly, all he wanted was an apology, but he acted like he was being blackmailed; anyone would be angry.
Where's Xue Wanwan? That's hilarious, she ran so fast.
[My brother doesn't understand anything, you guys are really making a mountain out of a molehill. And this old lady, she just thinks celebrities are rich and wants my brother to pay more compensation, right?]
[That was excessive. Didn't your parents raise you well?]
An apology is necessary!
Out of the camera's view, a staff member came into the courtyard and cut off Lin Meiyin's microphone: "The company wants you to turn the fire on you."
"Your agent said you ignored the script and that they want to have a 'good talk' with you when you get back."
Lin Meiyin was working with Ji Huaizhi.
He frowned at the staff member's words: "How am I supposed to go? Is he trying to whitewash his own incompetence by stepping on me?"
Somehow, the camera that was filming Ji Huaizhi switched to filming Lin Meiyin.
The microphone that was supposed to be cut off still made a sound.
【What's the meaning? 】
Who is talking to Lin Meiyin?
[Holy crap? Script? Whitewashing?]
What did I hear?
This staff member, Xue Wanwan's assistant, spoke very rudely: "What do you mean by stepping on you? What tasks did you complete that the company assigned you?"
"We made you the control group for our Sister Wanwan on the show, and we also made you flatter Cao Yu. You didn't do any of the things the script required you to do. Sister Feng Can told you not to forget the contract."
"You used to do so well, why is it different this time?"
Wait, what does that mean?
[Was Lin Meiyin's behavior all intentional? Was it all scripted? What about all those scandals surrounding her?]
[Xue Wanwan's assistant went too far! And what about that agent? Isn't this a threat?]
[I knew the people Lao Ji dealt with couldn't possibly be what the internet said. He probably already knew. No wonder it's Xingyao; they really know how to exploit their artists.]
All the staff's eyes were on Cao Yu.
By the time they discovered Lin Meiyin's side, it was already too late.
The director only found out it had already aired after receiving a phone call.
Seeing the comments about the script made my heart skip a beat; what a bad year!
In the end, the production team comforted Cao Yu and apologized on his behalf.
However, he lost a lot of fans and traffic as a result. He didn't think he did anything wrong; he just felt embarrassed.
Seeing the comments on the screen, the production team had no choice but to grit their teeth and continue broadcasting, asking Village Chief Qiao to save the day, while Lin Meiyin was called to answer a call from the company.
"When we first arrived in the village, everyone was not used to it, so there were some problems. Today, everyone should rest well and enjoy the delicious food made with the ingredients you found."
Village Chief Qiao looked at the camera, with the guests sitting at a long table eating behind him.
There was nothing on Cao Yu and Xue Wanwan's table. Xue Wanwan forced a stiff smile, while Cao Yu's lowered head revealed his bad mood.
Xiao Lu and Xi Xi adapted quite well.
Xiao Lu cooks, and Xi Xi helps out; it's a harmonious scene.
The space next to Ji Yingdi was empty; Lin Meiyin was not there.
Viewers, witnessing this scene, immediately began speculating about conspiracy theories: [What happened? Where's Lin Meiyin?]
I suspect she was called away. Is she not coming? The production team feels the show is meaningless without her.
She got warned; poor little girl.
I suddenly feel a bit sorry for her; no wonder she has so much dirt on her.
Village Chief Qiao also didn't know where Lin Meiyin had gone.
It's common for things to go wrong with a production crew. At most, everyone will discuss it briefly, but soon they'll forget about it and move on to the next line.
"Let's have a short commercial break. After the break, come and interact with your idol!"
Village Chief Qiao turned to Ji Huaizhi: "Teacher Ji, where is Teacher Lin?"
Ji Huaizhi looked up: "Oh, I asked her to go find something for me. She should be fine without me, right?"
Village Chief Qiao looked suspicious. What a coincidence!
What was once just a suspicion is now a certainty.
After the commercial break, the guests sat in the courtyard answering questions from the live chat, and the staff felt a little uneasy.
This episode had too many mistakes, and several staff members were criticized.
Lin Meiyin is back? This is getting more and more interesting.
You guys actually believe that? Isn't this just a whitewash?
[She's just playing herself, so everyone doesn't need to worry about her disappearing. Don't netizens already know what kind of person she is?]
"Welcome back to 'Treasure Countryside,' I'm your village chief."
"Before going to bed, our guests will play a little game with you. Scan the QR code below to send your message to the guests and any questions you have."
"You'll also have a chance to win prizes prepared by our program, including three XX brand mobile phones, three XX brand tablets, and five cash red envelopes."
"Perhaps you are that lucky audience member."
After finishing reading, Village Chief Qiao looked at the people sitting behind him with his phone and said, "Before this, did anyone have any questions for me? Perhaps I'll be willing to answer them."
Xixi raised her hand: "What are we going to do tomorrow?"
Village Chief: "Of course it's farm work, but let me tell you something else: your food rations tomorrow will be closely related to the work you do."
Xiao Lu: "Does that mean we might just go hungry this time, unlike the guests in the last episode who were so pitiful?"
"Hahaha~" Village Chief Qiao said helplessly, "You'll have to ask the director about that."
Xue Wanwan looked at Lin Meiyin.
Sure enough, she spoke up the next second: "What if I can't do it?"
"After all, I've never done any farm work before, I don't know how to do anything like that~"
When Lin Meiyin said those words with a blank face, everyone fell silent for a moment.
The comments section was filled with "hahahahaha".
[Was she doing this on purpose? Was she warned beforehand?]
If I hadn't seen her feeding the chickens more skillfully than my grandma today, I would have believed it.
[It's definitely scripted. Xue Wanwan just looked at her; I should have known she was going to say that. Lin Meiyin's script is to do something annoying on the show, right?]
Watching the variety show, agent Feng Can frowned: "Really..."
Based on her experience in the entertainment industry, she knew that Lin Meiyin had already begun to whitewash her image without her even realizing it.
how so?
Feng Can's gaze fell on Ji Huaizhi, who had a very low profile.
~
"Well... if you can't do farm work, then your stomach will only rumble like thunder."
The village chief answered Lin Meiyin's question.
Suddenly, the background music started playing, "Baby's tummy is thundering," which amused many people.
"Then I believe Teacher Cao Yu definitely won't let me go hungry, right?" Lin Mei's words sounded like she was being coquettish, but she remained expressionless while doing so.
"snort."
Cao Yu didn't give him a friendly look.
Some people mocked her, while others talked about Cao Yu ruining the crops.
In the past, everyone would have thought Lin Meiyin was trying to extort money.
They deliberately tried to ride on Cao Yu's popularity.
But nowadays, audiences only think that Lin Meiyin was forced into it.
People have already posted about Lin Meiyin online, all of which magnified the details of Lin Meiyin's expressions.
It's clear that the stupid things I did in the past weren't voluntary.
Many netizens have gone to dig up the details.
"Alright, let's get back to our game segment."
Holding my phone and seeing these questions made me sweat: "The first question is for Teacher Lin."
Lin Meiyin looked up.
"Excuse me," the village chief paused, "Teacher Lin, were all these incidents where you were attacked online really scripted?"
Everyone's eyes were wide open.
It seems they didn't expect the village chief to choose this question.
Wow, is this a huge bet for the very first one?
Will we ever see Lin Meiyin again?
The village chief was also quite embarrassed. What was wrong with these staff members? What kind of questions were they asking?
Ji Huaizhi sat quietly to one side.
The director had already started swearing in the back.
"I'm not sure how to answer that question, but I would like to say that if given the opportunity, I hope everyone can get to know me again."
The case is solved! The case is solved!
I think I see a fighting spirit in her eyes. What should I do? I'm starting to like her. She's so beautiful.
[You're probably faking it.]
Yinyin, I believe in you.
Lin Meiyin's words gave the production team and the company a dignified response.
She also seized the opportunity to clear her name.
Lin Meiyin quietly clenched her hands; she already knew that the online sentiment had shifted.
Ji Huaizhi took the initiative to applaud.
Xiao Lu and Xi Xi then clapped, while Xue Wanwan and Cao Yu sat to the side with rather unpleasant expressions.
If it were a script, then those two would be the first to collapse.
However, Cao Yu was already collapsed.
The village chief quickly read out the next question: "The next one is a message written for you by a fan of Teacher Cao Yu. Let's all listen to it."
Cao Yu breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this; thankfully, it was just a fan.
He needs the camera.
"Cao Yu, hello. I am your fan. I have been a fan of yours since you debuted singing and dancing. Over the years, I have cheered for you and tried to find a way to meet you."
"But what you did today has disappointed me greatly. I can tell you look down on people from the countryside. I was also born in the countryside, and I will never like you again."
The village chief's mouth was faster than his eyes; he had already read it aloud.
The guests looked shocked.
The live chat was also very lively.
Cao Yu's expression had long since frozen; he looked at the village chief in disbelief.
"Teacher Cao, is there anything you'd like to say to this fan?"
"She's already unfollowed me." Ji Huaizhi's voice made the comments section laugh.
The audience was surprised that the Best Actor Ji was so humorous.
Cao Yu's on-the-spot reaction was not good. After realizing what had happened, he immediately stood up and said, "I want to apologize to this fan and the other fans. I was not in good condition today and performed very poorly on the show. I'm sorry."
“I shouldn’t have brought my personal feelings onto the show, so I hope you can give me another chance.”
Cao Yu resorted to playing the victim to gain traffic.
"From now on, I will be more careful with my words and actions, and I will not let everyone down again."
Cao Yu's fans immediately forgave him in the live chat.
Only other audience members said: "You should apologize to that auntie, instead of hypocritically saying it's because of personal emotions."
He was faking it, because I'm just as shameless.
Who exactly is criticizing Lin Meiyin? Shouldn't it be this effeminate man who deserves the most criticism?
What do you want from me? My brother is about to cry!
[So fake.]
The village chief led the applause: "Everyone makes mistakes. Teacher Cao realized his mistake later today and apologized to that aunt in the village."
"Shall we give Teacher Cao a round of applause as encouragement?"
The guests' applause was rather perfunctory.
I felt inexplicably embarrassed.
The comments section was filled with laughter.
Lin Meiyin rolled her eyes again, hahaha.
[My brother Ji didn't move at all. I understand now, this guy's lying.]
[Xiao Lu is an honest man.]
[XiXi's smile is too obvious; be careful she doesn't get targeted by some brainless fans.]
The village chief was finding it hard to continue his act.
Hurry up and finish this part to start the prize draw.
When the director came out to speak after today's filming was over, he didn't dare to criticize some of the big stars, but he dared to speak up for the others.
He scolded Lin Meiyin the most harshly.
But before they could say two words, Ji Huaizhi made an excuse that he was tired and wanted to rest.
This can be described as showing absolutely no respect for the director.
The expressions of the other people were unpredictable.
Xue Wanwan looked over.
Chen Fei came over to apologize: "Brother Ji wasn't feeling well when he came today, but he insisted on continuing filming. Please don't be offended, Director."
This gave the director a way out.
"That's all for today. Everyone, please be careful during the rest of the filming!"
"Otherwise, I will contact your company directly."
After everyone dispersed, they said goodbye and went home to rest. After a day of filming, they needed to clean up before they could rest.
Cao Yu knew he wouldn't stay in the worst room, so he turned and went to his RV.
Lin Meiyin called out to Ji Huaizhi: "Teacher Ji, thank you."
Ji Huaizhi turned around: "What are you thanking me for?"
"You helped me out of awkward situations many times today, and my reputation has improved somewhat..."
"You think I'm helping you?" Ji Huaizhi raised an eyebrow at her.
Lin Meiyin was embarrassed and didn't know what to say.
A deep, resonant voice rang out: "Get some rest. Things will get better from here on out."
