Chapter 128: Xi Sister Meng Ze asks for help, cannot have both, Chen Lin

~14 min read 2,771 words

On the night "Ruyi Langjun" released its grand finale, Jin Li's phone rang non-stop.

She told Sister Fang about the situation, and Sister Fang sent a voice message very hurriedly.

"I also received many calls here. It's too busy. Your phone number might have been leaked. Open a protective shield."

Jin Li immediately opened the protective shield; only numbers recorded in her address book could get through.

Opening WeChat, the application to add her as a friend had reached 99+.

Jin Li let out a soft breath. Is this the feeling of becoming popular overnight?

It feels a bit too crazy!

On the other side, at Chenxi Entertainment.

Sui Lingfang had bitter words that couldn't be spoken.

There were many film and television commitments looking for Jin Li, several of which were big-name directors, and some even wanted to find Jin Li to film a movie.

Of course, commitments are commitments, but whether they can be negotiated is another matter.

It's just that these are all opportunities!

However, they can only look, but can't touch.

Jin Li's schedule had long been booked by Zhong Wentai!

Thinking of this, Sui Lingfang sent a message to Zhong Wentai in her busy schedule, asking if the script had been modified.

So many high-quality film and television commitments were placed in front of her, Jin Li wasn't in a hurry, but she was!

Another day passed.

It was the live broadcast roast day of "Leisurely Slow Life."

Jin Li and Qiguan Mingzhu sat in the same car and went to the recording venue together.

This recording location was a popular internet celebrity self-service barbecue restaurant, where they would roast meat while roasting the program.

Just as they were about to set off, someone suddenly followed and jumped up, flying onto the car.

The crisp sound of the door closing rang out, a bit heavy.

Jin Li raised her eyes and looked, a flash of interest crossing her eyes.

"It seems a little mouse has followed up."

Qiguan Mingzhu was lowering her head to look at her phone, and when she heard this, she also raised her eyes and raised her eyebrows.

"Hmm, a little mouse who is dreaming."

Jin Li, "Sleepwalking, should we kick her down?"

Qiguan Mingzhu, "Of course, otherwise we are recording the program hard there, and let the little mouse play happily on the side? This is too unfair."

Xi Sister Meng Ze, who was sitting in the front seat, finally couldn't help it, turned to look at them, and said with her hands folded in prayer:

"Sisters, please be kind, take me in, I really have nowhere to go!"

Qiguan Mingzhu, "Aren't you running commitments?"

Xi Sister Meng Ze, "I just rested today, I've been running around for the past few days."

Jin Li asked curiously, "Then go rest, why follow us to record? If 'Leisurely Slow Life' sees you coming, they will definitely give you some camera time, and you will have to be forced to operate again."

Xi Sister Meng Ze took a deep breath and sighed, "I have a matter that I've been considering, but I don't know what to do."

"Staying in the apartment will only keep consuming internally, so I might as well come out and walk around, and listen to your opinions."

This matter is a long story.

Xi Sister Meng Ze didn't want to say it in the group, preferring face-to-face communication with friends.

This wasn't it, she originally wanted to find Jin Li when she came to the company, remembering that today was the day Jin Li went to the company for a meeting.

But the time didn't match, Jin Li had already finished the meeting and was preparing to set off to run commitments, so she simply followed along.

The driver was Assistant Xiao Chen, and Jin Li was very relieved.

She said, "Then hurry up and say it. If it can be solved in the car, you don't have to follow to record. I'll let Xiao Chen send you back to rest first."

Qiguan Mingzhu thought of something and asked, "You shouldn't be struggling with the variety show 'I Am a Singer', right?"

"No way, how long has it been, you are still struggling with whether to sign or not, isn't it about to start broadcasting?"

Xi Sister Meng Ze looked up to the sky and sighed, "You guessed it right, it's this variety show!"

She explained, "We haven't run variety shows much before, so we only know that this variety show is very popular and the online discussion is very high."

"When I was preparing to take it, I went to ask friends who had participated before, and then I knew a little inside story."

Xi Sister Meng Ze paused, and said very hesitantly, "This variety show's hype is too strong, and they will do anything for topics."

Jin Li frowned slightly, "How do you say that?"

Xi Sister Meng Ze, "For example, suppressing powerful contestants with good singing skills, questioning people for lip-syncing, and then not giving explanations."

"Then, because of communication errors with the team, the anger was vented on the singer."

"If the person to be promoted is different from the scheduled script, they will make people be eliminated in the grand finale."

"Hmm, and cutting off the singer's microphone is a normal operation, not letting powerful singers sing."

"Huh?" Qiguan Mingzhu asked suspiciously, "Not letting powerful singers sing, how do you say that?"

Xi Sister Meng Ze, "It's very simple. For example, this is a party, and many singers have to go on stage to sing."

"Because your strength is too strong, and other singers are new singers, the production team is afraid that your strength will suppress the new singers too much, so they cut off the powerful singer's microphone, letting more new-generation singers make their own voices."

Qiguan Mingzhu "Tsked," "A bit outrageous."

Jin Li also thought so, "There are so many singers at the party, there are powerful singers and new singers, why only cut one powerful singer? If you really want new singers to stand out, have the ability to cut all powerful singers' microphones. Only cutting one person's is obviously targeting."

Qiguan Mingzhu hesitated, and said in a low voice, "I heard two small pieces of news here, but they are the same thing."

Qiguan Mingzhu raised her eyebrows, "Don't be wishy-washy, hurry up and say it!"

Xi Sister Meng Ze said quickly, "It's that 'I Am a Singer' once held a period, and an old singer withdrew from the grand finale, catching the production team off guard."

"One saying is that the old singer withdrew because he wanted to help his friend win the singer championship, so he automatically withdrew to give way to the worthy."

"But there is another saying that before the program started live, the production team found two old singers and asked them to withdraw automatically to give other new-generation singers a chance."

"One old singer didn't withdraw, but the other singer decided to withdraw. These were all discussed by them."

"As a result, the production team pretended to be confused, and took the selling point of 'withdrawal' to do marketing, contributing that host's god-level rescue of the scene for 30s."

Xi Sister Meng Ze concluded, "In short, this is a program team that started with marketing. They love marketing very much."

"I think this time, they use 'live broadcast' as a selling point, and they will definitely carry out marketing, but I don't know which marketing direction they will use."

Jin Li and Qiguan Mingzhu looked at each other. They thought for a long time, but couldn't think of any good suggestions.

The reason is that they have participated in too few variety shows.

Jin Li said, "Three cobblers are better than one Zhuge Liang. Don't go, come with us to participate in the program recording, and let March Sky give you ideas."

Xi Sister Meng Ze hesitated, "Can it work?"

Jin Li said, "Your competition songs were all chosen by us together. You say it can work or not?"

Xi Sister Meng Ze made a decision and said affirmatively, "It can work!"

Arriving at the popular internet celebrity restaurant.

March Sky had arrived half an hour early, all curiously observing the venue.

Seeing Jin Li and the others coming, Gu Cheng and Chen Lin greeted them, and helped them take their bags by the way.

Yan Xingdong saw Xi Sister Meng Ze and asked curiously, "Are you here to play?"

"Uh..." Xi Sister Meng Ze hesitated for a moment.

Jin Li took out the '5-3' from her bag, opened a question, which she did yesterday, but had been thinking about it, and planned to discuss it with Gu Cheng.

Jin Li heard this and said, "No, she is here to seek help and point out the maze."

Chen Lin wanted to take Qiguan Mingzhu to see the specialty dining area. He found some very interesting ingredients.

But he was pulled back by Qiguan Mingzhu.

She presided over the overall situation and said, "While the live roast hasn't started yet, we have an hour, let's discuss whether Sister Meng Meng should sign 'I Am a Singer'."

As soon as this was said, all of March Sky was stunned.

Yan Xingdong looked at Xi Sister Meng Ze and said in shock, "'I Am a Singer' has been doing full-network warm-up official announcements recently, you actually haven't signed the contract yet?"

Xi Sister Meng Ze held her forehead and sighed, "This matter is a long story."

Jin Li and Qiguan Mingzhu said in unison, "Then make a long story short!"

After listening to Xi Sister Meng Ze's doubts, everyone in March Sky hesitated a bit.

Yan Xingdong asked first, "Have you told your agent?"

Xi Sister Meng Ze nodded, "I said it, but the agent feels that this is a live broadcast mode, and many things cannot be controlled. Live broadcast is also a restriction on the program team."

"She tends to let me sign, feeling it is helpful to my singer career."

Yan Xingdong pondered for a while and said slowly, "Actually, we have heard of these news you mentioned."

He changed the subject, "However, things have passed for so long, and no one cares about what the truth was at the beginning."

"I only know that singers who have participated in 'I Am a Singer' have indeed ushered in a second wave of peaks in their careers."

Luo Yi nodded and said, "Yes, especially for those powerful singers, becoming popular through this program will be very fast. Several obscure cards have become popular again through 'I Am a Singer'."

"No matter how the program markets and hypes, it is also to accumulate popularity. Once the exposure becomes larger, it is a good thing for singers."

Xi Sister Meng Ze hesitated, "So, it is impossible to have both?"

Yan Xingdong patted her shoulder, "Sister Meng Ze sister, you know this better than us. It is impossible to see a variety show that can do both reputation and popularity in a year."

Gu Cheng thought of something and said, "I think on this point, you can trust your agent's judgment."

"Live broadcast is indeed a double-edged sword. It not only restricts singers, forcing them not to allow mistakes, but also restricts the program team."

"Whether the live broadcast is good or bad, the program team cannot intervene. How strong the strength is, everyone can see at a glance."

"At that time, use your own band, don't use the band given by the program team, to ensure nothing goes wrong."

Chen Lin also agreed, "Although Chenxi Entertainment is quite small, you and Sister Jin Li are both poached at high prices. If something really happens, Chenxi Entertainment will definitely save you."

Xi Sister Meng Ze pondered, "Okay, let me think about it."

She stood up and looked around.

Looking at the dazzling array of buffets, she suddenly had a good appetite.

She turned to Yan Xingdong, "Add one more for me, it doesn't matter, I can pay."

Yan Xingdong immediately said, "Of course it doesn't matter, no need to pay, the program team will reimburse it."

Qiguan Mingzhu had a bad premonition, "Wait, you won't be watching our program recording again!"

Xi Sister Meng Ze giggled, "You guessed it, but there is no prize!"

Qiguan Mingzhu shook her head and said helplessly, "You are here to torture us."

"Leisurely Slow Life" was also very surprised by Xi Sister Meng Ze's arrival.

Surprise is surprise, the program team is very welcome.

But this time it was different from last time.

Last time.

The program team kept Xi Sister Meng Ze until the end as an Easter egg for netizens.

And this time.

As soon as "Leisurely Slow Life" started broadcasting, they took the initiative to expose Xi Sister Meng Ze.

Hmm, it wasn't the program team's initiative, but Qiguan Mingzhu's initiative to expose.

It hadn't been ten minutes since the broadcast started.

When Qiguan Mingzhu saw them busy preparing for the music festival barbecue in the variety show, she complained:

"I was preparing ingredients at the time, and I just wanted to be glad that Sister Meng Meng wasn't there, otherwise I would have to serve her, it was too suffocating."

"Why do I have to work hard to run commitments, and she can play so happily?"

"Now I finally understand, it's not that she didn't come, it's just that the time hasn't come."

"Just like now, Sister Meng Meng is still eating and drinking beside me, and I still have to sadly record the program."

The director moved the camera to another table very powerfully.

Tonight, in order to record the program, they specifically booked a whole internet celebrity restaurant and cleared the field.

The camera swept, and the dining tables were all empty.

But only that one dining table had one person sitting there, still roasting meat happily.

Seeing the camera move over, Xi Sister Meng Ze also waved brilliantly.

【hhh suddenly can understand Pearl's psychological shadow area at this time!】

【Sister Meng Meng: I not only eat and drink for free but also live for free, mainly white-plucking (dog head)】

【Retribution is here hahaha】

The previous episode played to the official start of the music festival. Many tourists came, but foreign friends didn't seem to like eating barbecue, and they all passed by and left after a glance.

Although March Sky didn't have a KPI, they didn't want to waste ingredients, so they sent out the social cow skin symptom representative—Chen Lin, to call for guests.

He took out a small loudspeaker, spoke a fluent foreign language, and said the barbecue advertising slogan, simply put: if it tastes good, pay, if it doesn't taste good, don't pay.

Jin Li saw this scene and said, "I didn't know their promotional slogan was this at the time, otherwise I would definitely have stopped it."

Gu Cheng sat beside her and asked, "Why?"

Jin Li looked at him silently, and after a long time said, "Do you think the things you roasted are really delicious?"

Gu Cheng was also silent, "It seems a bit difficult to be delicious."

But fortunately, no tourists cared about such details.

Being called by Chen Lin, a few young and beautiful tourists really came to taste it.

During this period, netizens watched how Chen Lin persuaded tourists to eat more. That appearance was simply door-to-door sales.

Qiguan Mingzhu asked, "Didn't you say you were acting spoiled last time? Where is the acting spoiled?"

Chen Lin, "Eh, didn't you see it? The scene just now was acting spoiled."

Qiguan Mingzhu twitched the corners of her mouth, "You are just shouting for people to eat more, where is it acting spoiled?"

Chen Lin said affirmatively, "That is acting spoiled. I wouldn't say such mushy words in normal times."

Qiguan Mingzhu recalled the words Chen Lin said in the variety show—

"Eat a few more skewers, it's delicious, eat a few more skewers!"

"Don't leave, I'll give you a few skewers for free!"

"Welcome again, I'll give you a few more skewers next time!"

Uh.

Macho-style spoiled behavior?

【hhh macho spoiled behavior giving skewers?】

【Our Northeast men speak like this, paying attention to a heroic spirit!】

【Laughing spray, the spoiled behavior in my impression: Sister, come again~】

【Chen Lin macho spoiled behavior: Don't leave, I'll give you a few skewers! Don't leave!!】 ===== CHAPTER 129 =====

【I'm dying of laughter, my impression of acting cute: "Sister, give me another skewer~"

Chen Lin's tough-guy style of acting cute: "Don't go, I'll give you a few skewers! Don't go!!"】
