Chapter 275: Fifth Lord Qin's Investment in the Dating Show Needing an Amateur

I thought Fifth Lord Qin's business was extensive, handling everything he could and couldn't.

But Lin Meng never expected that this lord could also break into the entertainment circle.

"You guys, Fifth Lord Qin probably didn't come, right?"

Li Ping: "How could he not come? He's got a big playful heart; investing in this dating show is because he can contact young, energetic stars. He's up on the mountaintop right now—come on, I'll take you there."

Li Ping was about to take Lin Meng to ride the cable car, as he was worried about lacking an amateur challenger, but he didn't expect to run into Lin Meng.

Lin Meng's appearance, temperament, and that spunk of hers made her perfect for this show; moreover, she was acquainted with Fifth Lord Qin, and seeing her, he would surely grin ear to ear.

Lin Meng was hesitating, but the staff nearby had already started waving flags and cheering for her.

"Miss, I'm optimistic about you—you'll definitely break out, and the challenge's reward is pretty good; you'll get strong backing from the investor!"

Lin Meng pursed her lips; Fifth Lord Qin's strong support—she didn't dare.

But after thinking it over, Lin Meng still followed Li Ping up.

"Miss Lin, our show has one theme per episode, inviting different amateurs to participate—there are task-assigned roles and pure companionship roles. Since you know Fifth Lord Qin, I can arrange for you to be a regular amateur guest!"

Lin Meng quickly waved her hands.

"Thank you, Director Li, but I'll skip the regular spot—I just want to join this episode mainly to experience high-altitude bungee jumping; a pure companion script is fine, please don't assign me a task."

Li Ping thought about it and felt it was fine, then muttered to himself.

"Then let's follow your arrangement; that works too, after all this is a dating show—if you get a task script, you'd have to join the male-female pairing segment, date on the show, and Fifth Lord Qin would definitely not like that."

Lin Meng blinked and said, "What does he not like? I'm not bragging, but my looks are still decent; among amateurs, I should produce good variety-show effects, right?"

Li Ping nodded; he certainly thought so too, but upon thinking of Fifth Lord Qin, he decisively shook his head.

"Fifth Lord Qin seems to treat you like his own younger sister; how could he stand seeing you flirt with other male guests on the show?"

Lin Meng widened her eyes; she saw Qin Feng as an uncle, but he saw her as a younger sister—this generational mess is really confusing.

However, Qin Feng is indeed righteous, straightforward and not scheming; setting aside the initial creditor-debtor relationship, he's still quite a decent person.

"Give me a rundown of the process; if it's complicated and requires a long shoot, I'll forget it—I'll just go up, greet Fifth Lord Qin, and leave."

Li Ping waved his hands and quickly said:

"The process isn't complicated at all; the shoot takes three days. If you want to be a passerby, you might not get those romance scripts, and accordingly you'd have to shoulder more of the challenge show's content output."

"Our extreme bungee jump, put simply, is meant to let male-female couples hug while jumping, sparking love! The elderly viewers just love watching this."

Lin Meng: "..."

"Then please explain the specifics of the passerby script."

During the cable car ride up the mountain with the two of them, Li Ping detailed the show's process.

For Lin Meng, this passerby-script amateur slot was just right for her.

Others are busy dating, hugging and jumping off the cliff, whereas she would be pre-judged by the script as eliminated, not picked by any male guest, and would have to jump off the cliff alone.

Moreover, for solo contestants, the number of cliff jumps would be far higher than that of successfully paired 'couples,' which is also a punishment.

"That's perfect—I came just to bungee jump; this script suits my taste."

Upon hearing that, Li Ping also felt reassured.

"Then if there's no problem after we go up, let's sign the contract directly—the passerby script is simple, understandable at a glance."

"Just that at the very start of the show, pairing might take a day, and the bungee jump challenge comes in the following two days."

Lin Meng pursed her lips; she could only accept this arrangement—after all, who let the big patron Qin Feng have money and book the whole mountain?

"Your variety show is really boring—having a script is barely acceptable."

Li Ping scratched his face, feeling a bit embarrassed.

"No way—several of the actors coming this time are top-tier idols, and the show is a proper full-platform live broadcast; we can't have too many unexpected incidents, so a fixed script is the best solution."

Lin Meng nodded, no longer commenting; each line has its rules—she just needs to enjoy bungee jumping when the time comes, and other scripts or stars have nothing to do with her.

Upon reaching the mountaintop, the view was vast, the site spacious, and all kinds of equipment had already been set up.

The production crew had booked the entire mountaintop, naturally including the mountaintop hotel here.

"Miss Lin, Fifth Lord Qin and the others are in the hotel preparing for rehearsal; I'll take you there."

Lin Meng nodded and glanced at the bungee jump spot.

Before she even got there, she could already see expanses of white clouds beneath the cliff.

This mountain towers into the clouds—it's no joke.

Normally, a mountain over five hundred meters would just be called a small hill; to mountain lovers, it's nothing.

But this mountain is famous for its cliff bungee jump; with a height of over five hundred meters, it's quite thrilling.

Lin Meng followed Li Ping to the hotel; before anyone arrived, she heard Fifth Lord Qin's roar.

"Where is Li Ping? Letting him look for another amateur—why is he so slow? Fifth Lord Qin still has a drinking session later!"

Li Ping jolted all over, gave an embarrassed smile, and nodded at Lin Meng.

"Miss Lin, don't be scared—our Fifth Lord Qin is usually kind and approachable; it's my delay in handling things, the show is about to start filming, we still haven't gathered enough people, and I'm annoyed too."

Lin Meng glanced at him and said bluntly:

"You still respect your Fifth Lord Qin quite a bit, rushing to find him a substitute—I know his foul temper, but rest assured, just watch me later."

After she spoke, Lin Meng boldly pushed the door open and entered, immediately seeing Qin Feng holding a highball glass, his exaggerated posture occupying the whole leather sofa by himself.

That bearing was hardly inferior to that of a local tyrant.

"Tsk tsk tsk, Uncle, after not seeing you for a while, you're getting more rebellious—not keeping your money to open your martial arts school, but instead investing in a variety show?"

Lin Meng, upon entering, bluntly shouted at Qin Feng.

In an instant, everyone was drawn by that cold voice, their gazes all landing on Lin Meng.

Qin Feng also saw Lin Meng, jumped up abruptly, with an exaggerated expression.

"How did you get here, girl?"

Lin Meng blinked, "I didn't just hear you were missing an amateur and come over to rescue you?"

As the words fell, Qin Feng's eyes flashed; he was about to speak, but he glanced at the several men nearby, whose gazes were already stuck on Lin Meng.

Even the newly promoted Movie Emperor Chen Yuqi's eyes lit up; he unconsciously stood up, his gaze tightly following Lin Meng.

Qin Feng's eyes darkened, his brows furrowed; the words on the tip of his tongue immediately turned, and he shouted at Lin Meng angrily:

"Stupid girl, who asked you to rescue? Go back to your Jing Shi, this variety show isn't for you."

In Jing Shi, only Ye Chenjing is a yellow-haired one, but here there are six, seven, eight, nine yellow-haired ones!

Not one of them is worthy of Lin Meng.
