Chapter 54 Conspiracy
The so-called "double-act performance" is that Qi Zhao sits in front of the guzheng and makes playing movements, while Chu Yunshu sits outside the camera and plays the guzheng.
In the live broadcast room, the internet trolls hired by the program team have already started working diligently.
[Wow, I didn’t expect there would be benefits. 】
[So can we hear Chu Yunshu playing the guzheng again? 】
[That’s great. But, can you just listen? I can’t bear to look at Chu Yunshu’s face. 】
[I agree. When I see his face, the music he plays doesn’t seem so beautiful anymore. 】
[So the production team said it was a double act, and we just need to watch Qi Zhao. 】
[That's good. By the way, Qi Zhao's ancient costume looks really good. Just weld it to his body. I really like to see him in ancient costume. 】
[He was born for ancient costumes.] 】
......
If it were before, there would definitely be a lot of people agreeing with him, but now, Chu Yunshu has just won the favor of the national team with his outstanding chess skills and gained a wave of "talent fans".
It would not be so easy to elevate Qi Zhao by suppressing Chu Yunshu at this time.
[It’s so funny. I don’t have that ability and can only rely on others to “play for me”. My fans can actually brag about it. 】
[It's so funny. I don't have that kind of looks, and even if I have the ability, no one would want to see me. 】
Who said no one wants to watch it? We fans are happy to watch people with real talent and knowledge. 】
[Hahaha, what's the point of you wanting to watch it? It's too ugly. The director doesn't even want him to show his face. 】
The fans started arguing.
The program crew didn't care. Let them quarrel as much as they want. It would be great if the quarrel could become a hot topic on the Internet. The popularity of the program would reach a new high.
Hu Liang realized that as long as he had a relationship with Chu Yunshu, he would have no worries about being popular.
Now it seems that Chu Yunshu is the dark horse of this show. After today's live broadcast, he has to have a good talk with Helian Jie, and the subsequent recording needs to be re-planned.
Chu Yunshu has never had any extra opinions on the arrangements of the program team. It is useless anyway and he won't suffer any loss, so let it be.
So when the staff brought out the guzheng, he walked straight over.
On the contrary, Qi Zhao was not very happy.
He knew that Hu Liang was helping him, wanting netizens to see more intuitively how good his ancient costume looks.
However, he didn't want to gain such attention by relying on Chu Yunshu to show up in front of netizens.
Especially with this comparison, it seems that he can only rely on his looks and has no talent at all.
It was obvious that this variety show was originally intended to show everyone how well he fits in with ancient costumes - in addition to his appearance, he also has various talents in "qin, chess, calligraphy and painting".
The entertainment industry today is mostly impetuous. As long as you have a talent that you can show off, you can brag about it. There are not many artists like him who are proficient in all the arts of music, chess, calligraphy and painting, especially young people of his generation, almost none.
Therefore, when they got the theme and intention of this variety show, he and his agent felt it was a good idea. With the help of this variety show, he should be able to gain a lot of fans and become a celebrity this year.
But now, in just the second episode, the only thing he can show off is his good looks.
The "qin, chess, calligraphy and painting" in "qin, chess, calligraphy and painting" has been beaten by Chu Yunshu who showed up out of nowhere.
The following themes include "calligraphy and painting" and "love and romance". Even if Chu Yunshu is no longer good at them, he doesn't have much expectations.
It's quite boring.
But the director had already said it, and Chu Yunshu had already accepted the position very generously. If he continued to refuse, he would seem even less magnanimous.
Fortunately, his makeup and styling are really great. When he sits in front of the guzheng, he really has the elegant and graceful beauty of an ancient nobleman.
"Okay, set, go!"
After all, he has starred in several costume dramas. As long as there are no close-ups of his hands, combined with Chu Yunshu's piano playing, Qi Zhao looks full of ancient charm.
One person, one zither, and ten miles of peach fragrance.
The title of little prince of ancient costume is well deserved for Qi Zhao.
[Wow, this picture is so beautiful.] 】
[Qi Zhao is definitely a noble young man from a royal family. Please, please take on more costume dramas. 】
[This picture, combined with this music, is absolutely amazing. 】
[To be honest, I didn’t think Qi Zhao’s ancient costume was that good-looking before. I always thought that the fans were exaggerating. But now this picture is so beautiful that it goes straight into people’s hearts. 】
[The variety show "Music Journey" is really a treasure, it has both talented men and beautiful women. 】
[Hahahaha, I suddenly feel that Qi Zhao and Chu Yunshu can form a group called Talented Scholar and Beautiful Lady. One is talented and the other is good-looking, a perfect match! 】
[No, don’t try to take advantage of our Zhao Zhao’s popularity.] 】
[Here we go again. I'm annoyed with Qi Zhao's fans now. Don't you see that without Chu Yunshu, you Zhao Zhao can only sit in front of the guzheng and be a print model. Play a woolen zither. 】
[That's better than playing the piano well but no one wants to watch.] 】
As expected, the barrage can never be harmonious. Look, they are arguing again.
Fortunately, the double act did not last long. It was just a small segment added by the director on the spur of the moment.
After the tea tasting session began, the comments gradually quieted down. Although fans would still quarrel from time to time, this is the norm on the Internet today and everyone is used to it.
After the teacher had explained the art of tea and demonstrated it again, he asked the guests to return to their respective seats and make a cup of tea according to the steps he had just explained. He would then give a score after tasting the tea.
"The hot water is here." Before the guests dispersed, a staff member carrying hot water suddenly appeared behind them, and the shout startled them all.
Chu Yunshu was the closest, and just as he was about to turn around, someone bumped into him. He then heard the man scream "Ah" and pounced towards Hao Yifeng who was standing aside.
Chu Yunshu reacted quickly. After seeing the kettle in the staff's hand, he immediately rushed over, pulled Hao Yifeng to the side, and successfully dodged.
However, behind them, Xue Yu, who also wanted to pull Hao Yifeng away, was not so lucky.
Hao Yifeng was suddenly pulled away by Chu Yunshu, and the kettle full of hot water hit him, and all the hot water inside spilled on him.
A scream escaped from Xue Yu's throat, and steam was coming out of his body.
Chu Yunshu immediately remembered Lan Ling’s reminder when she was putting on makeup.
So, there is not hot water in the kettle, but boiling water!
Everything happened so fast that even the cameraman following the guests had not yet reacted before Chu Yunshu had already climbed up from the ground.
He didn't even have time to pull up Hao Yifeng who was lying on the ground. He pulled Xue Yu to the nearby stream and threw him in.
"Chu Yunshu, what are you doing?" Xue Yu's assistant was standing far away and didn't know what was going on. He only saw Chu Yunshu pulling Xue Yu to the stream in the chaos and throwing him into the stream.
She was so angry that she was fuming. Even if there was a conflict, this couldn't happen. Fortunately, Xue Yu had spoken well of Chu Yunshu in front of Zhang Shide before.
It was still a live broadcast, and he treated his artist like this. The assistant was so angry that he rushed over and pushed Chu Yunshu hard on the back. Chu Yunshu was caught off guard and was pushed down.
【Small Theater】
Zhuozhuo: It’s time to remove makeup.
Lan Ling: [Tsundere expression]
