Chapter 294

Walking with unhurried steps, Qin Mu walked onto the stage calmly.

Speaking of which, this is his first time appearing in front of the camera in a true sense.

Instead of behind the camera.

However, he didn't feel the slightest bit of nervousness.

He was even enjoying it quite a bit.

Both on stage and off stage were quite good!

"Friends in the audience, I probably don't need to introduce this person to everyone, right?"

Guo Dagang said with a smile.

"No need!"

"We know him, we know him!"

"Who doesn't know Brother Qin!"

"Hahaha, he's so handsome, it'd be hard not to know him!"

Immediately, it drew a wave of cheers.

Brother Qin.

A figure currently very popular on the internet.

And a rising star pursued by countless celebrities and directors.

Such a person was already well-known to people.

"Who is Brother Qin?"

Of course, there were a small number of people who weren't very clear.

"He is..."

In an instant, someone beside them began to educate them on the "870".

This explanation was incredible, and it immediately stunned that person.

"My goodness!"

"Is he that awesome?"

"That goes without saying!"

"If Brother Qin's crosstalk is also good, then I can't think of anything he can't do!"

This was said very clearly.

There's no need to mention photography; in terms of physical fitness, he's at the level of a top athlete, and in terms of intelligence, he's a presence that crushes the entire field.

Now, he was about to perform crosstalk.

"Alright, I believe everyone is also very much looking forward to Brother Qin's performance."

"So I won't waste any more words."

"Let's welcome the supporting performer, Guo Dalin, to the stage!"

Guo Dagang held the microphone and shouted loudly.

After all, it was his own son, so he still had to give him a grand welcome.

"Oh yeah!"

"Dalin is coming!"

"I wonder what the effect of the pairing between Brother Qin and Dalin will be?"

"It will definitely be great!"

Cheers rang out.

However, compared to the atmosphere when Qin Mu appeared earlier, it was more than just a little bit worse!

'I still need to let Dalin have more contact with Brother Qin and learn a few things!'

Watching this scene, Guo Dagang sighed to himself.

The young master of Deyun Pavilion, on his own home turf, 'lost' to an outsider.

This matter...

It really was a bit embarrassing!

Of course, Guo Dagang was still happy.

After all, being able to invite the incredibly popular Brother Qin would definitely bring even more fame to his crosstalk special!

Soon, Guo Dalin slowly walked out from backstage.

Unlike the trendy clothes he wore when recording variety shows, he was wearing the traditional robe used for crosstalk.

His entire image and temperament were different.

He walked quickly, reaching the stage in a few steps.

"Hello everyone!"

"Very happy to see you all!"

Guo Dalin greeted them enthusiastically.

The audience cheered in unison.

At this time, Guo Dagang also quietly exited the stage.

Next, it was the performance of the two young men.

"Brother Qin."

"I have a question I want to ask you."

Guo Dalin cleared his throat and asked.

"Go ahead."

Qin Mu smiled and nodded.

"Do you have many friends?"

"I do. Why?"

"Then you are truly blessed; the ancients said it well, many friends mean good fortune."

"Just like me, I have tons of friends; I have friends in the east, friends in the west, friends in the south, and friends in the north too."

Guo Dalin said confidently with a smile.

"What?"

"Are you trying to say you have good fortune?"

Qin Mu interjected.

"I guess so."

"Actually, I really like making friends."

"Is that so?"

"Just like me standing here performing, all the audience members came here, right, everyone is my friend."

Guo Dalin laughed.

"Then you still charge people money."

Qin Mu shrugged his shoulders.

Once these words were spoken, Guo Dalin was instantly stunned.

Huh?

He could even catch this punchline?

And still respond to that.

Just as he didn't know how to respond.

Below the stage, the audience immediately started shouting.

"That's right! We are friends, refund the tickets!"

"Refund the tickets!"

"Hahaha, why charge money from friends, that's unreasonable!"

"Refund the tickets!"

Following that, the words 'refund the tickets' echoed throughout the entire theater.

Seeing this, Qin Mu smiled slightly.

I threw this joke to you.

Fun, right?

After possessing 'Top-tier Crosstalk Expertise', the punchlines and jokes in his mind were simply countless.

Let alone Guo Dalin.

Even if Guo Da himself were to take the stage, I'm afraid he wouldn't necessarily be able to catch every single line.

Backstage.

Guo Da is watching the broadcast monitor.

This is his son's performance; he watches every single show.

When he heard Qin Mu say those words, Guo Da's eyes lit up instantly.

Brilliant!

To think he could drop that running gag so smoothly!

"Refund the tickets" is definitely a classic old gag for the Deyun Pavilion!

Almost every two or three shows, there's a moment where the whole audience shouts it.

It must be said, a gag that can stir up the audience's emotions and mood is definitely a good gag.

But even a good gag can't be effective every single time it's mentioned...

Just like one time, during Yueyue's solo show, he tried to bring up this gag, but the response was lukewarm.

No other reason, they were just tired of hearing it.

Therefore, for a gag to achieve the best effect, the most crucial thing is the way it's delivered.

And now, Brother Qin just used a simple greeting to toss out the "refund the tickets" gag.

This skill is quite formidable!

"I didn't expect Brother Qin to have such deep attainments in crosstalk!"

Guo Da sighed repeatedly.

Before, he had been a bit worried, afraid that the venue wouldn't heat up and the effect would be poor.

But now it seems, the worry was unnecessary!

But...

Dalin is in a bit of a tough spot.

This method, this gag—it's not easy to follow up on!

Amidst the shouting of the audience.

Guo Dalin remains stunned.

Damn it!

How do I respond to this?!

He just said he treats the audience like friends, and now he's still here collecting money.

It really is a bit unkind.

How can he say something to perfectly gloss over this gag?

Just like that, it continued for about half a minute.

Guo Dalin still hadn't thought of a good way to put it.

Just as he was preparing to mumble something random to brush it off.

Qin Mu spoke up.

"I can understand you."

"After all, the Deyun Pavilion still belongs to your old man right now, and the one collecting the money is your old man. When it's eventually passed down to you..."

"The audience will be your friends, so you shouldn't need to collect money anymore, right?"

Qin Mu said with a chuckle.

Hearing this, Guo Dalin gave a start, his spirit immediately perking up.

Is this him coming to help out?

That's great!

He immediately chimed in: "Right, right, right! When I inherit the Deyun Pavilion, I'll waive the ticket price for my friends for a crosstalk show!"

He said it very loudly and very firmly.

Such a good chance to step down, he had to seize it!

"You all heard that, right."

"One free ticket!"

Qin Mu smiled slightly.

"Remember that!"

"Wow! There's such a good thing?!"

"Dalin, I'm your friend forever!"

"Hahaha, awesome!"

"Dalin, hurry up and inherit the Deyun Pavilion, I want to come for free once!"

Instantly, the whole venue cheered enthusiastically.

Backstage, Guo Da was completely stunned!

There are just too many punchlines here!

Is Brother Qin really this strong?
