[Ahhh my Wei Yi darling!]
[The talcum powder is here!!!]
[Qiu Shuang and Brother Cheng are from the sa company.]
[Our Wei Yi is still quite lucky, the child is so ambitious, and now can appear on this show, aweso!]
[Wei Yi really looks so fresh, my goodness.]
[Li Yang: My handsoness has t its match.]
[Qiu Shuang and Shu Ran have collaborated, right? They also got a little buzz going.]
[Qiu Shuang is one of the rare few in the entertainnt industry who works incredibly hard, actor fans can really rest assured.]
[Just see if these two can withstand being scrutinized/dog head]
[The show’s curse, if they can endure this scrutiny, then everyone can confidently beco their fans.]
[Now idols really keep coming in waves, is this kid really only eighteen?]
[Only eighteen?! How can the two "senior" handso uncles on site cope with this?]
[Hahahaha, are Brother Cheng and Jiang Lu already considered seniors?!]
[Fresh is fresh, just not as good-looking as those two handso uncles.]
[Brother Cheng and Jiang Lu are typical examples of always being handso and only growing more so, these young idols may not be so assured.]
[Wei Yi, do your best! Mama loves you!]
[He’s a polite kid, did Brother Cheng just say sothing to him?]
[Qiu Shuang didn’t try to cozy up to Brother Cheng, that’s nice.]
[There’s Li Yang separating Mu Qiu and Brother Cheng, which is hilarious, avoiding suspicion makes Li Yang feel awkward hahahahaha]
[Shu Ran’s refreshing vibe is back, suddenly feeling a bit nostalgic/dog head]
[Mu Qiu’s wine-red outfit is simply perfect, did Brother i Yan just sneak a second glance at her?]
[Among the three ladies, he can only afford extra glances at her, who else would he look at?]
[Not too much interaction, not very close either, it seems like the show crew has it figured out.]
[Ahhhhhhh, the brother is so handso!]
After greetings, all the guests for this episode had arrived.
All the photographers and the director, who initially hid in the corner, ca forward, turning their backs to the three-ter wide door, facing them with small loudspeakers in hand, speaking passionately.
"Welco everyone to the sixth episode of ’Different Variety Show’! Let’s give another round of applause to today’s three guests—Teacher Jiang Lu, Qiu Shuang, and Wei Yi."
Applause sounded again.
"Well, as you can see, for this episode we are in a stunningly beautiful and spacious castle area, everyone has donned very pretty formal outfits. So you should be able to guess what the format of this episode will be."
Guan Yu: "Evening dance partners!"
Shi Yuhuai: "Runway show."
Li Yang: "Horror mystery."
Mu Qiu: "Vampire and hunter story."
Jiang Lu: "Brain teaser, spy?"
Shu Ran: "Vampire."
Cheng Zhirang: "Could also be vampire plus mystery."
Qiu Shuang: "Vampire."
Wei Yi: "I vote for mystery."
The director revealed a subtly mysterious smile.
"How coincidental, every guess is wrong."
"......"
Guan Yu rolled her eyes: "I knew it. The show crew wouldn’t give us such obvious hints."
Li Yang: "So what is it really?"
"Don’t you feel this atmosphere, this environnt, this attire, has an artistic vibe?" The director asked.
Mu Qiu’s eyebrows shot up in surprise: "So we’re not going to learn Shakespearean literature or sothing, right?"
"Of course not."
Mu Qiu heaved a sigh of relief, the second breath hadn’t co out when the director added, "But indeed this episode is literature-based."
"The of this episode: Story Live Room. Guests are divided into three groups, three rounds of gas will be conducted by each group, after each round there is a chance to extract performance keywords, the winner has first choice.
After three rounds of gas end, each group will compile a story based on the keywords they drew from within their group and perform it. The performance requirent—is to have an unexpected twist. During the performance, scores will be given by professional teachers, the group with the highest score wins."
Sounds not difficult, the logic is quite clear.
It’s just......
Mu Qiu: "Where is the literary richness in this?"
Director: "The entire process is suffused with a rich literary atmosphere, you’ll realize as you play the gas."
"Oh no," Li Yang cried out in agony, "we have to perform again, and get judged by teachers?"
Dreams of the first and second episodes, scenes of being "privately counseled" by the teacher to the brink of tears.
"Exactly!" Guan Yu also stood up, speaking for him, "Li Yang just managed to dress up all handsoly, can’t we have a singing and dancing competition?!"
Li Yang with starry eyes: "Sister Guan Yu, you are really......"
Guan Yu: "The key is I bet this episode would be singing and dancing, spent a week learning to sing and dance before coming, and you say we’re doing literature and performance?!"
Li Yang: "......" He was too naive.
Talking about live performance, aside from Cheng Zhirang, Jiang Lu, and Qiu Shuang, the others were sowhat nervous.
Especially Shu Ran and Li Yang, along with Wei Yi. Shu Ran’s lace fan was waving so fast it was almost leaving residual shadows.
"Really going to perform? Create our own story and perform on the spot, plus getting the teachers’ scores?"
"I, I have never acted before, brothers and sisters please guide ?"
"Director! When grouping, is it possible to sneak into a team with Brother Cheng and Teacher Jiang Lu?!"
"You fool, Li Yang! Being with them will only make your shortcomings more apparent, you should be in a team with soone at similar performance ability to you! Like ."
"You stop right there! You just want to highlight that your acting is decent! Right now, I’d trust Mu Qiu over you!"
Mu Qiu: "??? What’s my business with this drama?"
Shu Ran tilted her head at her, with a face full of nervousness and doubt: "I see you’re not nervous at all, how co you’re so confident?"
Confident at this ti? Not even Cheng Zhirang is that brash.
Everyone’s eyes quickly shifted towards her.
Mu Qiu calmly said: "Of course I’m nervous too. I was just thinking about a problem."
"What problem?"
"I just feel this setup," she squinted her eyes, gestured a tiny bit with her fingers, "has a little bit of familiarity."
"Experiencing so familiarity as the original author......" Guan Yu grabbed her hand "Sister! Understand the plot, don’t forget!"
"... I just said there’s a tiny bit of familiarity. Can you let finish?"
"Please do, we’re all ears."
Mu Qiu recalled so contents of the book, and said: "I rember there was an episode thed as, Torture Literature Live Room. All the gas held were literature exams, but the story setting’s background was ancient imperial exams.
Upon passing each level, you could draw a story from the box for the Torture Literature, and randomly select one for the final performance. Scripts were all about top scholars abandoning wives and children, Du Shiniang sinking her treasure chest, those kinds of stories."
"It does resemble that."
Jiang Lu’s deep voice echoed.
"Just the background is different, potentially the gas too. But under such rules, what matters is the guest’s performance, so the show crew can brazenly use your original setting."
Simply put, don’t assu because the rules are similar, the developnt will be identical to the book, based on the show crew’s "utter unscrupulousness", there’s bound to be an evolution beyond their wildest imagination.
