Chapter 331 Extra: The Last Gossip of the Variety Show 3
【What? Am I blind?】
Has Teacher Tu been cursed again?
Calm down, okay? Didn't they make up four years ago?
[Exactly, haven't you seen that the Crane Village team organizing team-building activities all the time?]
[Believe it or not, with Tu Chaoxi's rotten temper, the best he can achieve is a facade of harmony while his heart is at odds; he'll just blend into the crowd and fool Ma Zhiyuan.]
Not only netizens have doubts, but even Ma Zhiyuan himself is not entirely convinced.
Ma Zhiyuan: […Did you accidentally drop it?]
Tu Chaoxi: [Are you sick?]
Ma Zhiyuan: ...
Ma Zhiyuan felt a surge of frustration, but for some reason, he was unexpectedly a little happy.
He stared at the screen for a while, then awkwardly asked, "[...Didn't you say you'd wait until you left Hong Kong before doing anything?]"
Tu Chaoxi: [Stop pretending, what are you being so clingy for at your age?]
Ma Zhiyuan: [Who's old! I'm not even forty yet!]
Tu Chaoxi: [Heh.]
Tu Chaoxi could drive Teacher Ma crazy with just one word.
Just as Ma Zhiyuan was about to retort, another message popped up in the background.
Tu Chaoxi: @Hong Kong and Taiwan Anecdotes @Hong Kong Broadcasting @Hong Kong City Know-It-All... You are the same.
All the media outlets that weren't circled in the previous post have been added in this one.
Ma Zhiyuan froze, staring at the half-typed text in the chat box. After a while, he silently deleted it.
The two warnings immediately went viral and became a trending topic.
[Goodness, two in a row! Tu Chaoxi is really protecting them!]
[These two actually got what they deserved!]
[I knew it! Look back at all the essays Teacher Ma has written over the years—not a single one of them criticizes Tu Chaoxi!]
[Given the old man's character, he might have secretly written a whole bunch of official documents!]
【Don't you think so, Teacher Ma @Ma Zhiyuan?】
[@Ma Zhiyuan, Mr. Ma, please say something!]
[@Ma Zhiyuan]
...
The internet is buzzing with excitement.
Meanwhile, Hong Kong media outlets were extremely anxious as the trending topics gradually went astray.
Just as I was about to change the wind direction, I received an email.
Upon opening it, I found it was a lawyer's letter from the Xu family.
I was instantly stunned.
Generally speaking, people in their circle are immune to lawyer's letters, since sending a lawyer's letter is no different from running up to you and spouting nonsense.
But this lawyer's letter is different.
This lawyer's letter came from the Xu family.
Not only did it come from the Xu family, but it also bore Xu Chi's electronic personal seal.
This is clearly a serious matter.
For a time, the Hong Kong media were thrown into chaos.
...
Hong Kong media is in complete disarray, while netizens are still discussing Ma Zhiyuan.
Unfortunately, Teacher Ma hasn't made any move yet.
[As Teacher Ma gets older, he becomes more and more thin-skinned; he probably won't be showing up again.]
[Sigh, it's a pity the variety show was taken off the air, otherwise it would have been even better with the footage of Teacher Ma criticizing Tu Chaoxi in the past.]
[Yes, it's a pity it's no longer available...]
...
After the banter, netizens smoothly transitioned into a nostalgic phase.
It's not just netizens who are feeling nostalgic.
Thousands of miles away, the director was incredibly envious of the overwhelming popularity.
After Tu Chaoxi bought out the variety show, the copyright was no longer in his hands.
Over the years, he has done some shows, but unsurprisingly, none of them have reached the popularity of the Crane Village team back then.
He understood that, besides the favorable timing and location, the most important factor back then was the harmony between people.
He never found a more witty and intelligent non-celebrity guest than Tu Yao, nor will there ever be another Tu Chaoxi who topped the list of trending topics.
There will never be another time with such twists and turns.
After discussing it with his team, the director gritted his teeth, called Tu Chaoxi, and after a long, hesitant conversation, proposed to buy the variety show back.
"Teacher Tu, I'll transfer all the money you paid for the buyout back. Or do you have other ideas? I'll cooperate. Is that alright?"
He blushed as he finished speaking, quite embarrassed.
After all, he himself agreed to the buyout in the first place.
Tu Chaoxi was silent for a moment, then said, "...Let's put it on the shelves directly."
He added, "As for that money, you can transfer it if you want, or it doesn't matter if you don't."
In recent years, the director has produced many flops, and Tu Chaoxi is probably aware that he is not well-off.
The director was stunned before he could even feel happy.
"This...this won't do!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Tu Chaoxi chuckled on the other end of the phone.
"Director, it seems like I haven't said a single word to you..."
Director: "Say...say what?"
"Thanks."
When Tu Yao left, he went to the director overnight with his injuries and proposed to buy out the variety show.
Everyone understands the value of this variety show at the time, and how important it was to the director who hadn't achieved much success in a long time.
But when the director saw his injured appearance, he agreed without asking any questions.
The director didn't produce many good shows, but that doesn't mean he wasn't a good person.
There was no sound from the other end.
Tu Chaoxi raised an eyebrow: "Alright, I'll have my assistant send you the source video. You can upload it now."
After hanging up the phone, Tu Chaoxi laughed again.
The director was so startled by their antics back then that he considered the money as compensation for his emotional distress.
...
On the other hand, after Tu Chaoxi took over the matter, Tu Yao went to look at houses with Cheng Sangsang and Xu Bai.
The layout is the same upstairs and downstairs, and Cheng Sangsang and Xu Bai are already planning how to decorate.
Just as Tu Yao was about to turn off her phone, a notification popped up.
She blinked and immediately held up her phone: "Xiao Chi, Sang Sang, Xiao Bai, the show is back!"
Just two minutes ago, this variety show that suddenly disappeared was re-released.
Netizens are completely bewildered.
Good heavens, what year is it now...?
[I just made a wish, and that kid Tu Chaoxi actually released the copyright!]
[It's too late, I'll go watch it one more time!]
Xu Bai exclaimed, "Teacher Tu does great things without saying a word."
"Once the show was released, the topic completely went astray."
At this point, no one paid any more attention to the Hong Kong media's feud with Ma Zhiyuan; everyone was almost immersed in the joy of the program's return.
Even if Hong Kong media still want to stir up trouble, they should consider the current level of public interest.
The chat group became lively again.
Xu Bai couldn't help but poke Ma Zhiyuan.
Xu Bai (who owns the large-floor version): [Teacher Ma, everyone's asking if you've written the red manuscript for Teacher Tu yet.]
Cheng Sangsang (who owns the large-floor version): [Teacher Ma, everyone's asking if you've written the red manuscript for Teacher Tu yet.]
Wen Yu: [Teacher Ma, everyone's asking if you've written the red manuscript for Teacher Tu yet.]
Jiang Ye: [Teacher Ma, everyone's asking if you've written the red manuscript for Teacher Tu yet.]
Tu Yao laughed heartily, and as she laughed, she seemed to remember something and manually scrolled up.
Suddenly, he said, "...Teacher Ma hasn't made a sound for a long time."
