A surprise
Fu Shutao concentrated and heard some rustling noises.
It was clear that someone was walking around on tiptoe, and the location... seemed to be on the first floor.
She glanced at the alarm clock on the bedside table - 4:30 in the morning.
So early?
Have the staff started working?
Or is there something wrong?
While thinking about it, Fu Shutao quickly changed his clothes, took his sword and went out to check the situation.
She first checked the third floor to make sure Fu Sui'an was safe before going downstairs.
When I reached the first floor, the villa was still pitch dark, there was no one in the hall, and the door of the villa was tightly closed.
The noise was outside the door.
Fu Shutao pushed aside a corner of the curtain and saw several figures swaying on the wide grass at the door.
She stared for a while and finally saw the situation clearly. At the door, the staff of the program team were setting up the venue. It seemed that they had some big plan.
It seems that the production crew will make everyone busy early this morning.
Fortunately, I got up early!
Fu Shutao was secretly happy and began to look forward to other people's reactions.
Anyway, she had slept for more than 6 hours, so she decided not to go back to bed to catch up on some sleep. Practicing swordplay by the sea should give her a different feeling!
Fu Shutao went back to her room to wash up, then tiptoed downstairs to go out and practice.
As soon as the door was opened, a staff member sitting on the steps at the door was startled and stood up suddenly, "Who?"
"It's a human, don't be afraid." Fu Shutao was also afraid of ghosts and could fully understand his fear.
The person at the door was Shen Kangquan. He breathed a sigh of relief, but it was pitch dark in the villa and he couldn't see the person clearly, so he lowered his voice and asked, "Who is it? Why are you up so early?"
Anyone who is immersed in thoughts and the dark door behind them suddenly opens would be frightened like him.
"Fu Shutao." Fu Shutao saw his face clearly and responded with a smile, "Director Shen, why are you guarding the door here in the middle of the night? Are you afraid that we will run away?"
"…What gate do you want to guard? I was so worried that I couldn't sleep, so I just got up to supervise everyone's work." Shen Kangquan touched his thin hair, sighed, and then asked: "I am old and under a lot of pressure, so it is understandable that I can't sleep. You are an 18-year-old young man, why do you get up so early?"
"I had enough sleep." Fu Shutao smiled and concealed the fact that she was woken up. After all, they are working normally. I was too alert when sleeping in an unfamiliar environment. I can't blame them for being woken up. Why bother to say it out loud? It's like blaming them.
Fu Shutao hesitated for a moment, but still couldn't help but ask softly: "Director Shen, what are you worried about? Tell me so that I can... care about you!" Are you thinking about how to torment us every day?
If the gossipy look in your eyes could be a little less, I might really think that you care about me!
Shen Kangquan snorted in his heart, but suddenly remembered that her last name was Fu, and he shuddered. Otherwise - tell me, try your luck, what if... I can really help?
He sat down again, lowered his eyes, and said with a melancholy tone, "Yesterday's live broadcast data was not very good, the peak was only 3200."
"So few?" Fu Shutao sat down next to him and asked in surprise, "There are 8 people on our show, and on average, each of us only has 400 fans watching?"
Shen Kangquan smiled bitterly, "No need to equalize, they are all fans of you and Fu Sui'an."
Fu Shutao:? ? ?
"Why? I heard that Teacher Song has quite a lot of fans."
"Ms. Song...she said when she signed the contract that she would not promote the product on her personal account, and Song Xun did the same."
"Why do you have to hide when participating in a variety show?" Fu Shutao had a big question mark over her head: "Is it normal for Teacher Song to be like this?"
"She came to participate just to repay my favor." Shen Kangquan took a deep breath, "She doesn't think highly of this show. She's probably worried that participating in such a mediocre variety show will lower her status."
"I see."
Although Fu Shutao did not understand, he respected personal choices.
Shen Kangquan frowned and sighed again, "Alas, she has a point. Our program may die at any time."
“Why did it die young?”
"Lack of money."
"Okay." Fu Shutao returned to the previous topic: "What about the other guests? Didn't they send any?"
Shen Kangquan's face turned red, he endured the embarrassment, and pretended to be calm and said: "The publicity director ran away with the whole department. I was so focused on the show that I forgot to tell everyone."
Fu Shutao said earnestly: "Director Shen, please hire a new one! Professional matters need professionals to do it."
Shen Kangquan still said those two words: "No money."
Fu Shutao: ...I understand.
I am all too familiar with the feeling of being broke.
No, I have money now!
Fu Shutao thought about it and felt that this variety show must have been popular in the original novel, otherwise Hong Wei would not have been willing to spend a large amount of money to hire internet trolls just to gain a good reputation in the show.
Her eyes sparkled, the corners of her lips curled up slightly, and she asked Shen Kangquan: “Director Shen, are you in need of investors?”
Shen Kangquan:! ! !
I haven't heard such words for a long time!
Could it be that I was dreaming while leaning against the door?
He pinched his palm in disbelief and felt a little pain. It turned out that this was not a dream!
"You...you want to invest?"
"Yeah." Fu Shutao smiled, trying to make some money.
Shen Kangquan had never thought that she looked so beautiful when she smiled, and he kept asking, "How much can you invest?"
"How much do you need?"
Shen Kangquan was delighted. Can we give you as much as you want? He quickly opened his mouth and said, "8 million."
Fu Shutao blinked and said, I thought it would cost more than 10 million. But investing is risky, so I have to be cautious. She pursed her lips and carefully chose an amount she could afford: "I'll invest 6 million." It's only 6 months' pocket money, so the risk is still affordable.
6 million! !
That’s 6 million! !
Why can Fu Shutao be so calm and composed?
She is indeed the daughter of a wealthy family!
For Shen Kangquan, the 6 million was a complete surprise. With this extra money, many of his previous ideas could definitely be realized.
He was afraid that the night would be long and he would have more trouble, so he stood up quickly and said, "I will go and draft the contract now."
Fu Shutao nodded calmly, but in fact she was very excited, as it was her first time investing!
"I have my assistant's contact information in my phone, which I'll give to you later. Just talk to him about the contract and other things." Let the capable Assistant Zhuang help me check it out!
This is just a small matter, and of course we have to honor the financial sponsor.
The guests who were soundly sleeping had no idea that a deal that would change their fate had been concluded before dawn.

"Jili Gulu... Jili Gulu..."
Fu Sui'an was awakened by the strange sound of the alarm clock.
He got up and tried to turn off the alarm clock, but couldn't find the switch and the evil sound filled his ears.
I couldn’t help but curse in my heart: What a sinister program crew! People get up and make noise at six o'clock.
Fu Sui'an stuffed the alarm clock into the quilt, but the sound was still piercing. After he washed up and escaped from the room, he instantly felt refreshed.
When he saw that Fu Shutao's door was open, he knew that she had gone out to practice sword.
He hurried downstairs, and saw other people running out of their rooms listlessly.
So, early in the morning at around 6:10, everyone sat in the living room, and when they saw that the live broadcast had not started yet, they couldn't help but complain that the production crew was not doing their job.
Yao Peixing was in high spirits. When he didn't see Fu Shutao, he asked curiously, "Brother Sui'an, where is Sister Taotao?"
"She went to exercise. I'll go look for her."
As soon as he finished speaking, Fu Shutao walked in from the door, sword still in hand, and said energetically: "Third brother, I'm back! Good morning, Xingxing, good morning, everyone!"
"morning!"
"morning……"
The full-bodied voice of Xingxing formed a sharp contrast with the weak voices of the others.
"Did you really go to exercise?" Seeing that there was no sweat on her face, Song Xun couldn't help but ask doubtfully, "What kind of exercise can you do with a wooden sword?"
"Yeah. Don't you believe it?" Fu Shutao chuckled, drew his sword from its sheath, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and the tip of the sword went straight towards Song Xun.
Song Xun was startled and stepped back, falling on his back on the sofa, his face pale.
Fu Shutao stopped two meters away from him, pursed his lips, and forced back his smile. He said with a guilty look on his face, "Oh, I didn't mean to scare you. I just wanted to show you some sword moves."
[Hmph, you hot-tempered wimp, your courage is nowhere near that of the big brother! Didn’t you suffer enough yesterday? You’re being rude again today! 】
Song Xun said angrily: "You did it on purpose. The look in your eyes just now clearly showed that you wanted to hit me."
"Really not." Fu Shutao walked over slowly, lifted his chin with the scabbard of his sword, and said with a smile: "If I were to argue with you, you wouldn't have the time to back off."
Song Xun didn't dodge in time. His face turned red with anger and he wanted to curse.
Seeing this, Song Qianyu quickly stepped forward to cover his mouth and said to Fu Shutao: "Shutao, don't always provoke him. You also know that he has a quick temper and can't stand provocation."
Fu Sui'an frowned and said in a cold voice: "Teacher Song, Taotao's sword is eight hundred meters away from Song Xun. I don't know what he is afraid of."
Yao Lixuan looked at the scene calmly, knowing that Fu Shutao was indeed trying to scare him. Looking at Jiang Baiyun and Jiang Xuefeng next to them, they had no expression at all, and looked like they didn't care. He quickly put away his expression.
At this moment, Director Shen walked in, holding everyone's mobile phone in his hand, and said casually: "Good morning, everyone. Our live broadcast today will start in 10 minutes. Now we need everyone to post a Weibo with the live broadcast room. The order of selection for the whole day's tasks will be determined based on the number of likes within half an hour."
Yao Lixuan frowned, "Is the number of likes calculated by individual or total?"
"Take the highest value in the group."
That would be fair. Otherwise, Xingxing is just a little kid and doesn't even have a Weibo account, so it would be a huge loss.
Song Qianyu was dissatisfied in her heart and frowned slightly, "Director Shen, we agreed..."
Director Shen is now in high spirits after getting investment. He originally wanted to take advantage of Song Qianyu's fame, but he couldn't if she didn't cooperate. He toughened up and said, "It doesn't matter if you don't publish it, but for the sake of fairness, I can only choose it last."
"You!" Song Qianyu gritted her teeth in anger.
Fu Shutao glanced at Song Xun lightly and said with a smile: "I didn't know there would be such a task today. Yesterday I happily posted the link of the live broadcast room on Weibo, but Director Shen told me that the barrage in the live broadcast room was full of my fans."
When Song Xun heard this, how could he tolerate this?
Who doesn’t have a few fans?
I must let them see how Fu Shutao bullies me, and it would be best if they can help me denounce her!
He stood up angrily, "Mom, let's post on Weibo, right now!"
Song Qianyu didn't want to slap herself in the face, so she advised softly: "Forget it, I..."
"Mom, I need to make money! I have to earn 122 yuan today to pay off my debts! If I choose tasks later, they will definitely be bad tasks, how can I make money?"
What my son said makes sense.
Song Qianyu was a little hesitant.
Song Xun had already jumped out, took her phone back, put it in her hand, and whispered in her ear: "Mom, we can't let Fu Shutao bully me like this. When fans come, she will definitely be scolded."
Song Qianyu took a breath and kindly reminded him, "You didn't get any good results from her. Can you beat her?"
"It doesn't matter whether we can win or not, we have our mother here, right? You are old and experienced, and you have good acting skills. If you show weakness appropriately, someone will definitely scold her. If that doesn't work, we can hire some Internet trolls to make sure she can't survive in the entertainment industry."
"Is that so?" Song Qianyu didn't go online very often and wasn't very sensitive to the Internet, but she trusted her son very much. "Okay, then I'll do as you say. You can post on Weibo."
Song Xun was immediately satisfied and quickly posted on Weibo.
Although his phone was taken away after he posted the message, Song Xun believed that his mother and his fans would definitely help him.
