Backstage, the director's expression also changed. He pressed the headset and said to the planner, "Xi Nancheng, what's going on? Can't you tell that Meng Fu is joking?"
Meng Fu’s sense of variety is impeccable, and she is also very polite to the staff of the program crew.
After these three episodes, the staff of the program team, including the assistant director who was not optimistic about Meng Fu at the beginning, all like her very much.
Most people at the scene thought Meng Fu was joking and trying to liven up the atmosphere, and didn't take her words seriously.
Who knew that Xi Nancheng would directly ask Meng Fu to put it out again.
A chess game set up by a professional chess player was asked to be set up by Meng Fu, an amateur who had never learned chess?
How should Meng Fu deal with this? !
"The number of people watching the live broadcast has soared to 19 million." In the headset, the planner's voice was calmer than the director's.
It’s only been a short while since the show started, but it’s already so popular.
The director was even more troubled and threw down his notebook. "No emotional intelligence at all? How did Xi Nancheng get to a top position in the entertainment industry?"
...
...
"Things have come to this point, there is no room for maneuver. Let's just wait and see. Teacher Li is here." The planner sighed.
Their show has become very popular, and it is a weekend, so some people even sacrifice their rest time to watch the live broadcast. The popularity is already quite high, and tourists come in through recommendations from time to time, and when they see this scene, they stay.
When the plan was made it was 19 million, and now it is almost reaching 20 million.
It’s only a matter of time before the previous record is broken.
The director covered his eyes and dared not look at the live screen anymore. He could imagine how awkward the entire live broadcast would be even with Teacher Li to save the situation.
**
On the live broadcast screen, the lively scene suddenly became quiet.
No one expected Xi Nancheng to speak like this.
After all, this is a variety show, and a live broadcast. Anyone in this circle knows that no matter how much they disagree with each other in private, they will cover it up a little on the show, not to mention that this is a live broadcast.
Li Qingning was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously came to the rescue. He patted Meng Fu's shoulder heavily and said, "Give up, kid. Ordinary humans can't succeed."
[Teacher Li is so pitiful, he comes to the rescue again.] 】
If you can’t do it, then you can’t do it. Why say you can do it? Don’t you know that Xi Nancheng is the kind of person who doesn’t give face to anyone? 】
[I can tell that Brother Fu is joking, right? 】
[Isn’t it Meng Fu’s responsibility to respect others? Everyone else was listening attentively, even Che Shao was listening, but she was the only one who kept her head down and was chatting with others, right? 】
[If it weren't for Teacher Li, Meng Fu would have been finished long ago]
【……】
The barrage of comments was filled with crazy complaints in an instant. Such an intense scene during the live broadcast quickly aroused heated discussions among the barrage of comments viewers. This kind of live broadcast scene was even more exciting than the edited variety shows.
But most of them were complaining about Meng Fu.
Meng Fu was still sitting on the chair. Upon hearing this, she turned around and reached out to take a chess piece. She suppressed her smile and only glanced at Xi Nancheng and Sheng Jun before saying lightly, "Okay."
"Are you crazy?!" Teacher Li covered the microphone and asked her through gritted teeth.
"No." Meng Fu patted Teacher Li's shoulder, "Don't worry."
The live broadcast was on, and Meng Fu agreed again. It was too late to stop Meng Fu.
Li Qingning couldn't help but press his temple, his face full of worry. He took two steps back and saw that Meng Fu had already picked up a box of black coins. He couldn't help but waved to the photographer, asking him not to take pictures of him.
He doesn't look in a good mood.
The photographers looked at each other, then turned their cameras towards Meng Fu.
The focus of the audience now is on Meng Fu's chess game, and the whole network is waiting to see what she will do next.
Li Qingning refused to be photographed and did not attract much attention, so the photographers did not force him to take pictures.
Che Shao doesn't understand chess games, but no matter what happens in the past two episodes, Che Shao feels that Meng Fu is like a treasure bag who knows everything.
Seeing Li Qingning's solemn expression, he could not help but move forward, turned off the microphone, and asked with his mouth: "Teacher Li, is there something wrong with this chess game?"
After the first two episodes, Li Qingning had a very good impression of Meng Fu and Che Shao.
There was no ulterior motive between the two of them. Hearing Che Shao's question, Li Qingning pressed his eyebrows, cut off the microphone, took a deep breath, and explained to Che Shao: "Do you know who set up this chess game? Xi Nancheng's teacher is a first-level chess player of honorary rank. This is a fourth-level chess game with a huge variety of difficulties. If you want to demonstrate it from the beginning, even a professional fourth-level chess player would need half a day to study it. We have only studied half of it. Our task today is to work with Xi Nancheng to deduce this chess game."
Li Qingning knew that Meng Fu had a good memory. Could she still recite Che Shao's chess game just now?
Che Shao didn't know anything about Go, so in his eyes, the game was just about black and white pieces.
After Li Qingning's explanation, he realized how difficult the previous game was.
"Meng Fu is not so reckless, right?" Che Shao lowered his voice, his tone inevitably anxious.
In this situation, and with it being a live broadcast, it was impossible for the production team to let Meng Fu cheat. He could imagine what kind of hot searches would be happening on Weibo now and in the future.
"I don't know." Li Qingning felt in his pocket, trying to take out a cigarette.
But he was not allowed to smoke on the show, so he could only look at Meng Fu.
Meng Fu had already brought both boxes of chess pieces to her side. She took a look, put one hand on the table, and picked up a black piece with the other.
Seeing that she is really about to get off, the camera zooms in.
[This is going to be interesting. Let me see how she ends this.] 】
[As the name suggests, when setting up the chessboard, you can't make a mistake in any step. Not to mention Meng Fu, I saw that apart from Xi Nancheng, no one at the scene could remember where to make the first move, apart from the chessboard diagram. 】
[Brother Fu, don't be so arrogant. Why are you angry with Xi Nancheng? 】
[Ahhh, fellow puffs, I don't dare to look anymore. I'm going to open the window and take a breath. You can tell me what the result is then.]
[I can feel the awkwardness coming across the screen]
When playing Go, the first step in setting up the game is very important.
In the camera, Meng Fu has already raised his hand to place the first chess piece.
[As long as I pause it quickly enough, our brother Fu won’t play chess! 】
[Come on, let us appreciate Meng Fu’s “amazing” chess skills. 】
At the scene, Li Qingning, who had been staring at Meng Fu, saw that Meng Fu really started to place the first chess piece. He couldn't help but tilt his head and close his eyes slightly, not daring to watch Meng Fu place the first chess piece.
Sheng Jun still had his arms folded across his chest, his chin slightly raised, and he looked in the direction of Meng Fu with a faint smile.
“Pah—”
Inside and outside the camera lens, under the eyes of countless people, the first black dot was moved to the outer position of the lower left corner.
After she finished, Sheng Jun suddenly smiled and said, "Nancheng, Sister Meng Fu really likes to play. I know you are serious, so don't bother with her."
"Yes," Che Shao also turned on the microphone, "Get up first, let's go check out the vase at the door..."
[Hahaha, the good guy Sheng Jun also comes to the rescue.] 】
[Forget it, sister, let’s not argue about this anymore]
[Is there any sister who can tell me whether the awkward period has passed? I am about to turn on the play button. 】
Everyone, including Sheng Jun, naturally felt that Meng Fu made a wrong move in her first move, which was why she said that.
In the headset, the director also contacted Xi Nancheng, "Meng Fu is like this..."
At this time, even if Xi Nancheng had any objections, he would give the program team face and push the matter over.
However--
Xi Nancheng didn't say a word. He just stared at the chessboard in front of Meng Fu. Meng Fu had already placed the second chess piece. Xi Nancheng's expression slowly changed from indifference to solemnity.
The photographer also noticed his expression. When taking pictures of Meng Fu, Xi Nancheng's facial expressions were clearly visible to all the audience.
Barrage——
[I…I have an idea…]
[No way?] 】
「I, I too……」
[To be honest, we may have thought of the same thing...]
Meng Fu played chess very smoothly. After the first chess piece, he quickly moved on to the second and third pieces.
At this time, she had already placed more than a dozen black and white pieces.
The voices of discussion around gradually stopped, and Teacher Li, who couldn't bear to watch, turned around. He looked at Xi Nancheng's eyes, remembered something, walked directly to Xi Nancheng, took the book on the table and opened the page that Xi Nancheng had just mentioned.
This page is the chess game assignment given to them by Teacher Xi Nancheng. After they have learned it, they have to re-play it according to the complete steps.
Li Qingning looked at the chess game on the diagram, then looked up at the chess game that Meng Fu was currently playing, and compared them one by one -
The positions of a dozen chess pieces in the lower left corner are exactly the same.
Li Qingning opened his mouth. Meng Fu's speed in moving the pieces was completely beyond his understanding of Go. "This professional four-dan chess game... did she really move it correctly?"
While he was flipping through the books and comparing them, Meng Fu continued to move.
Li Qingning looked at the chess game, and he could already tell that Meng Fu's chess game had reached the part that Xi Nancheng had just explained.
Not only him, but also some people who know Go recognized it in the barrage.
Xi Nancheng just ended here, but now, Meng Fu in the camera still lowered her eyes, and after placing the black piece, she picked up a white piece.
Clearly, she wasn't done yet.
[Meng Fu...she wouldn't, wouldn't, wouldn't be...]
[If you remove the word "no", Xi Nancheng's expression has already told us the answer. Meng Fu made all the right moves. 】
[Ahhhhhhh I've gone crazy! 】
[Is there anyone who can help me? I have a bad heart. 】
[A passerby asked, is this chess game so exciting? 】
[This is a chess game played by a professional fourth-dan player. What is a professional-level chess player? Let me tell you this, there are only 18 professional-level chess players in our country every year. 】
[Is there any sister who can tell me whether the awkward period has passed? I am about to turn on the play button. 】
【……】
The director who had been watching the live broadcast naturally observed the changes on the scene. He also knew that Xi Nancheng's expression and Meng Fu's move were absolutely correct!
The director stood up directly by the table, his dark eyes fixed on the backstage screen, "This Meng Fu, is really..."
Hidden deep enough!
From the first episode till now, it has been such a pleasant surprise!
The decision to invite Xi Nancheng to this episode was made just a few days ago, and his coming to the Go Club was included in the confidentiality agreement.
Who could have imagined that this would happen?
Beside him, the assistant director was also staring at the screen intently. She coughed but didn't look away. "Director, what do you think of Meng Fu? Can she, can she lay out the entire chess game?"
Of course, it wasn't just the female assistant director who was paying attention to the problem. The Li Qingning staff on the scene, as well as all the audience watching the live broadcast, were all watching to see if Meng Fu could complete all the chess games.
[I was wrong. She was serious when she said that Teacher Li had a bad memory last time. 】
[It’s impossible to finish it]
[Is there any sister who can tell me whether the awkward period has passed? I am about to turn on the play button. 】
[You in front of me will wait for your pause for the rest of your life. You have never seen such a wonderful live broadcast! 】
How can she play chess? Netizens, Meng Fu can play chess now, I am so upset that I can't do anything.]
【I also……】
[Isn’t the key point that she has to continue? Xi Nancheng has only taught half of it...】
Intellectually, Li Qingning, the staff, and the audience all believed that Xi Nancheng had not explained the entire situation, and that Meng Fu could not have set up the entire situation, but...
Everyone watched Meng Fu calmly place a white piece, then pick up a black piece. This calm and effortless look made the audience at the scene and watching the live broadcast feel uncertain...
In the camera, Meng Fu still lowered her head and picked up the last black piece.
She was wearing a loose white sweater today. Almost everything in white made the black spots on her hands even more obvious.
“Pah—”
She gently put down the last black piece without checking her chess pieces. She supported herself on the table and stood up. She looked up and glanced at Xi Nancheng, then clapped her hands at the live camera. The curve of her peach blossom eyes was cold and tender. Her tone was also unhurried, and her brows were solemn and gentle: "Well... I'm done."
The barrage was filled with screams.
The live broadcast site fell into silence and no one spoke.
At the same time, the popularity of the live broadcast of "A Day with a Star" stopped at the highest peak today——
29 million!
