Unlike his previous life, the majority of this world's variety shows were broadcasted live. Aside from reality shows that required post-editing and couldn't be broadcasted live, all other entertainnt programs had all switched to live broadcasting.
The first variety show that the "Vie for Supremacy" crew chose was China's most popular live ga show called "Extrely Entertaining".
"Extrely Entertaining" had the highest ratings for variety shows within its tislot, and was aired every Saturday night on Tomato Station. It was extrely well known. The show has three hosts, two n and one woman. All three were top entertainnt hosts in China, and each also have their own personal variety shows.
Excellent hosts coupled with funny and interesting gas and interviews, "Extrely Entertaining" was an absolute show that many big films would want to be on before being aired.
Just after finishing the filming for "Ambush", Rong Xu had arrive in Nancheng on the third day.
"Vie for Supremacy" had already wrapped up its filming two months ago, and including today, there was only two weeks left before it airs. During these two weeks, Rong Xu needed to follow the crew to participate in four programs, and couldn't return to B-City until next week.
When Luo Zhentao received the notice from the crew, he was very surprised and couldn't help but sigh: "It looks like Director Guo appreciates you very much. Xiao Xu, you’re just a supporting character, but he still arranged four programs to help you to gain publicity. This is a chance for us to increase your popularity, if you can perform well on the show, it’ll be very easy to gain more fans."
This point, Rong Xu was naturally clear on.
It was very easy to boost yourself up with variety shows. It could make you an instant hot topic and quickly gain you fans, but to be able to keep those fans still depends on yourself. That was why before coming here, Rong Xu especially looked up nearly all the episodes of this show from the past year to gain a general understanding on how the show goes and the hosts' styles.
But even so, when he arrived at the set, the show's assistant director bluntly handed him a script.
Luo Zhentao looked a bit awkward, but Rong Xu calmly received it. The other party apparently did not expect that he would be so calm, therefore, that assistant director then explained with a rare patient: "It is very easy for trouble to occur when live broadcasting, so the general process is fixed. There is still an hour before we start, you can rest over there in the lounge and morize the script."
The elegant and bright youth slightly nodded his head and smiled: "Okay."
Looking at Rong Xu's appearance, a glint flashed through that assistant director’s eyes. He scrutinized Rong Xu for half a day, before laughing and said: "Actually, you do not have to rember it word for word. We are just worried that since you are a newcor, it would not be good for you or the crew if you said sothing wrong during the live broadcast."
Rong Xu acknowledged it: "Thank you, I understand."
The assistant director smiled and left.
As it stood, even if he did not ntion it, Rong Xu still knew. That if he were to say the wrong thing, it would not be good for this program.
The live broadcast requirents for any program were extrely demanding. For a newcor like him who was participating in a live broadcast for the first ti, it was only natural that the program crew was worried. He did not think there was any wrong with what they did, after all, no one would honestly believe that any programs had no script and just let the guests fully improvise.
After looking through the script, Rong Xu saw the overall flow of the show and the role of each guest.
When Luo Zhentao saw how quickly Rong Xu accepted the "unspoken rules" of the circle, he was a bit surprised, but did not say anything.
Quickly, an hour soon passed. Tang nglan, Ye Qiao, and Dong Zheng all arrived at the TV Station one after another. They all smiled and greeted Rong Xu when they saw him, Tang nglan was especially happy and hugged him, sulky saying with a look of resentnt: "Xiao Xu, there was no one who would help eat green peppers after you left. Those nutritious things had to be thrown away every day, such a waste ah."
Rong Xu raised an eyebrow, and retorted: "Tang jie, so you did know that they are very nutritious?"
Tang nglan pretended to be surprised: "Did I say sothing like that?"
The two people looked at each other and laughed.
In this circle, the higher the coffee seat the stars were on, the better they got along. At least on the surface, because they all need to keep their composure. Only the likes of Han Yanghao who managed to co across a lucky break for a ti would do such unscrupulous things to offend people everywhere.
After a while, the show officially started its broadcast.
"Extrely Entertaining" live broadcasting was divided into the live TV broadcast and online webcast. In consideration of ratings, the latter would be broadcasted an hour later than the forr.
Director Guo was the last to arrive. Together with him was Song Mingfei who was also stuck in traffic.
This was the first ti Rong Xu saw "Vie for Supremacy" three male lead. He gave the other a small friendly smile, but when Song Mingfei saw him, he looked blankly and only managed to nod back. Did not know if it was because he was exhausted from being stuck in the traffic jam, he did not smile much and his expression was also a bit stiff.
Rong Xu didn't think too much of it. After the host spoke the opening words, everyone entered the live studio one by one.
Rong Xu and Song Mingfei were the first to enter, followed by Ye Qiao, and finally Tang nglan and Dong Zheng.
The lineup of "Vie for Supremacy" was too strong, even if the second male lead Ye Qiao was placed in "Ambush", his popularity would be no worse than Han Yanghao's. There was no need to ntion Tang nglan's and Dong Zheng's popularity, the seats off stage was filled with their fans. Rong Xu swept a quick glanced over and saw that there were fans holding up their nas everywhere.
Suddenly, Rong Xu saw a few ten or so girls holding up "Rongrong", "Wanqi", and "Marshal" LED light signs on the left side. He was slightly surprised, but then smiled and waved over there.
At this mont across Mainland China, countless viewers gathered in front of the TV, watching "Extrely Entertaining". Among them were nurous girls who were extrely excited with their cheeks flushed. When they saw Rong Xu actually wave to his fans, the program crew panned the cara over to those fans. They slapped the table: "Ao ao ao! This program crew knows! Tease! Such a tease!"
In the next ten minutes of introductions, the crew gave Rong Xu several shots. In these shots, he was in a silent daze most of the ti, but as soon as the cara appeared, he would imdiately laugh, as if to hide his daze.
Soon, on "Extrely Entertaining" live broadcast’s Weibo, a few comnts appeared.
【Hahahaha! How can Rong Xu be so stupidly cute! He was actually in a daze when others were introducing themselves and was even caught on cara! It's like being lazy in class and was caught by the teacher, he's too cute! Becoming a passerby fan~】
【The way he suddenly laughs is too amusing, he was obviously daydreaming, but still pretends to not know anything~ 】
【Ah ah ah ah My Marshal's stupidly cute appearance is also veeerrryyy nice! Kiss~Kiss~Kiss~Kiss~Kiss~Kiss~~~】
【*flips table!!!* When can I watch the online webcast ah! You said my family's Rongrong is being stupidly cute? I also want to see Rongrong's stupidly cute appearance ah! My mother forcibly took over the TV to watch her mother-daughter-in-law drama, I really want to watch "Extrely Entertaining" live broadcast ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!!!】
"Extrely Entertaining" first ga was a team ga, splitting up everyone into two groups to PK. The main attractions of this ga was Ye Qiao and Song Mingfei, Rong Xu also got so nice shots, but there were still many fans who thought he had too little screen ti.
When it was ti for the second ga, the main group the program pushed was Tang nglan and Rong Xu. The program had divided everyone into groups of two; Ye Qiao and Dong Zheng were in a team, Song Mingfei was tead up with one of the male host. All three team PK-ed against each other.
When the audience in front of the TV saw this scene, all couldn't help but felt that it warms the heart and delights the eye; extrely to look at. The bright and beautiful Tang nglan, and the handso and youthful Rong Xu. The age difference between these two was obviously not small, but when Rong Xu easily picked up Tang nglan and ran at the fastest speed to the goal, for a second, even Rong X's fans were sowhat stunned.
【This… this handso guy is our family's Rongrong?】
【Rongrong was still being so stupidly cute just now, but he's now suddenly bursting with so much boyfriend power! The contrast between my Rongrong is too cute~ If I could be held like this by Rongrong just once in my life…wu wu wu wu I'm willing to not eat at for ten days!!!】
【Not eat at for ten days? The curse above is too cruel! Then I want to make one too, I'm willing to not eat at for a month! I want Rongrong to carry , princess carry yo~~~~\(≧▽≦)/~lalala】
【……Upstairs is shaless!】
【 1】
Soon, the third ga turned to Tang nglan and Dong Zheng.
The fourth ga continued to promote Tang nglan. The majority of the shots were on this popular Royal Elder Sister. The Director was not stingy with giving her cara ti, especially during the fifth ga. Plain and simple, he let Tang nglan beco the main focus!
On the TV screen, the gorgeous and stylish actress was wearing a simple and plain T-shirt and loose jeans. She was holding a microphone as she stood in the middle of the studio stage, helplessly looking beside her: "Tian ge, can I volunteer for Dong Zeng to stand here instead ah?"
The host, Tian ge, laughed and hurriedly said: "nglan stated her case, now asking the other party Dong Zheng. Would you like to take nglan's place, standing in the middle of the stage, and accept our punishnt?"
Dong Zheng's handso face flashed a smile, he heroically took a big step forward and righteously said: "Tang jie is a woman, how can you let a woman be punished? Isn't it just singing, what does singing count as… Eh? Our punishnt this ti is singing?" Dong Zheng took a huge step back and went back to his seat, grinning as he said: "Tang jie, you should know that I'm tone deaf. As long as I open my mouth… the program's rating is guaranteed to drop by 0.5!"
Tian ge's face imdiately went pale and panicked: "That's not good! Manglan, our show's rating is depending on you!"
The other two host made a weird pose and spoke in unison: "nglan, do your best! Our bonus this month is depending on you!"
The audience erupted into laughter.
Naturally, it was only for the effects that Tang nglan said sothing like that. In the fourth ga, she lost, so she was asked to sing in the fifth ga. The program had pre-arranged this. She had also received a script and knew that the fifth ga was prepared for her. It's just that her script was much simpler than Rong Xu's, containing only a few short words.
The first ga: Ye Qiao, Song Mingfei
The second ga: Tang nglan, Rong Xu
The third ga: Tang nglan, Dong Zheng
The fourth ga: Tang nglan, (Dong Zheng)
Penalty in the fifth ga: Tang nglan will sing.
——This was the script Tang nglan received.
Tang nglan was a senior in the circle. Even without a detailed script like Rong Xu's, she could still act well and would not make any mistakes.
The refusing from before was just for entertainnt effects. When Tang nglan reluctantly accepted the singing punishnt, everyone on stage, all of the staff, the audience in the studio, and the audience in front of the TV all thought she would really start singing.
They saw Tang nglan lift up the microphone and took a deep breathe, but just as she was about to sing, she suddenly stopped.
In front of everyone’s gaze, Tang nglan grinned and turned to look at the host Tian ge, saying: "Tian ge, how about I sing a duet with soone? I'm still a little nervous by myself, if I sang out of tune… there would be soone to keep in check."
Tian ge was surprised, but when he turned to glance at the Director off stage, he saw the Director slightly nodded, so Tian ge cheerfully laughed: "Of course you can. Who do you want to sing with nglan? I'm tone deaf so don't look at ah!"
Tang nglan's hesitant eyes swept over everyone's body. She looked at Dong Zheng, Dong Zheng imdiately put on a scared expression and hurriedly hid behind Tian ge. She looked over at Ye Qiao, Ye Qiao bead and patted his chest with a 'choose choose choose ' face. Song Mingfei rely gave a small smile and looked at her.
Finally, Tang nglan looked over to Rong Xu…
Tang nglan: "……" Aren't you good, you're still in a daze!
Tang nglan did not know that this was what the staff wrote in Rong Xu's script. His role was two words: Be cute.
Seeing Rong Xu still had on this stupidly cute look, Tang nglan hooked up her lips and waved her hand: "Rong Xu, you can sing so nicely, how about you co up and sing with ."
The staff and hosts who thought Tang nglan would choose Dong Zheng and wanted to promote the male-female lead CP: "……Excuse ?!"
Dong Zheng who originally thought Tang nglan would chose him: "……"
Ye Qiao and Song Mingfei who knew they were only buying soy sauce, but never expected it to end up like this: "……"
The audience in the studio who were going frantic: "Aaaaaaahhhhhhhh!!! Sing! Sing! Sing! Sing!…"
The repeated "Sing!" cries filled and spread throughout the studio. In front of the TV, countless viewers excitedly covered their faces; online, Rong Xu's fans were crazily comnting, voicing out their excitent.
【Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah Rongrong is going to sing! Rongrong is going to sing! Ao ao ao~!!】
Because in the States one could only watch the online webcast, that was why compared to the audience watching the dostic live TV broadcast, a certain cutesy female fan was watching the one hour behind webcast while scrolling through their phone. Suddenly! She… He saw this comnt!
Their phoenix eyes slowly widened, that fan quickly looked up to watch their computer screen, but they only saw on screen that "Extrely Entertaining" first ga was starting.
That fan: "……"
A minute later——
【Lotus Seed Paste and Orange Stuffing: Want to see! Want to see! Baby also want to listen to Rongrong sing wu wu wu T^T!!!】
The author has sothing to say:
Qin Orangeorange: Why can't Baby hear Rongrong sing the first, Baby is not happy, Baby is sulking!
Translator's Addition:
Vian: "Extrely Entertaining" is just bad naming sense heh…
Shem: it was funny (*≧▽≦)ﾉｼ))
Mother-daughter-in-law drama – Apparently since the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law has always been a problem, they made a whole drama (sub?)genre out of it.
PK – Originally aning ‘Player Killing’ in online gas like MMORPG, the term PK is now also colloquially used in China and Taiwan as a verb form of the word versus in situations where there may actually be no avatar.
Boyfriend power – It ca from girl's power. It your ability as a boyfriend, there was a whole list of actions for it when I looked it up on Baike.Baidu. It had had 'perfect dream boyfriend' all over it.
Buying soy sauce – Just passing by; has nothing to do with them
