Chapter 250: Official Announcement
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
There was still a long time before “Beauty” was released. If Lu Zhen did not release any new works during this period of time or appear on variety shows, it would be very detrimental to her popularity.
That was why the fans were a little anxious.
Two days later, the production team of “Celebrity Performance Class 2” officially announced the information of another student.
“She is a female star of the new generation. When she debuted, she was called a pure and innocent girl. She had a first love face that people couldn’t forget.
This time, she was brave enough to break through and chose to come to ‘Celebrity Performance Class 2’ to pursue her original intention on the path of acting. ”
“Hello, Lu Rou. I look forward to your performance!”
Seeing this official Weibo post, Xiaoxiao widened her eyes in shock. “What? Lu Rou is also participating in this variety show? Is there a mistake? Is the production team deliberately causing trouble?”
Without a doubt, the production team was indeed unkind this time. The entire world knew about Lu Zhen and Lu Rou’s relationship and the grudge between them, but the production team had yet to tell Lu Zhen that Lu Rou would participate in this variety show.
Moreover, was it really a coincidence that Lu Rou would participate in this variety show?
Could it be that the production team and Lu Rou had revealed that Lu Zhen would also participate in this variety show, so Lu Rou deliberately participated in Celebrity Performance Class 2?
Xiaoxiao’s expression was very ugly, but Lu Zhen did not show any emotions. She quietly turned a page of the practice question manual.
“No, I have to ask the production team. This is too much of a bully!” Xiaoxiao was extremely depressed. She immediately took out her phone and contacted the production team’s person-in-charge.
Lu Zhen looked up. She wanted to say forget it, but seeing that Xiaoxiao had already called, she didn’t stop her. Although she no longer took Lu Rou seriously, the production team did not respect her enough. It was reasonable for Xiaoxiao to express her dissatisfaction and anger on her behalf.
The call went through and Xiaoxiao immediately questioned, “What are you guys thinking? Why did you invite Lu Rou to participate in this variety show? Do you really not take us seriously? Do you believe that we’ll withdraw from the competition now?!”
On the phone, the person-in-charge of “Celebrity Performance Class 2” kept apologizing and begging Lu Zhen not to withdraw from the competition. “I’m sorry, I’m really sorry. Lu Rou decided to participate in the show at the last minute. We just received the news. Even the publicity poster was made by working overtime at the last minute!”
“Then why didn’t you tell us?
The person-in-charge felt guilty and helpless, unable to say anything.
Lu Zhen put down the practice manual. Actually, it was not difficult to guess what the production team was thinking. It was already an irreversible fact that Lu Rou wanted to participate in the competition. Lu Zhen had also signed a contract and generally wouldn’t break it.
Perhaps the production team did not deliberately invite Lu Rou over to disgust Lu Zhen, but after Lu Rou came, the production team might think that it was a
good gimmick for the two of them to participate in the variety show together, so they thought that they might as well pretend to be dead. In any case, they would be scolded if they took the initiative to tell Lu Zhen.
Xiaoxiao was still scolding the person-in-charge of the production team. Lu Zhen waved at Xiaoxiao, indicating that she should stop arguing.
“This isn’t over. You have to give us an explanation!” Xiaoxiao hung up the phone angrily and looked at Lu Zhen. “Sister Zhenzhen, they’re really bullying us. What kind of status do you have? What kind of status does Lu Rou have? Does the production team really not know who’s the big shot? How dare they hide it from us!”
Lu Zhen was caught between laughter and tears. “I’m not a big shot. Lu Rou has Bian Lang supporting her now, and Lu He has given her the best resources in the entire company. She has capital behind her now. She’s not much inferior to me.”
After thinking for a moment, Lu Zhen said, “Morally speaking though, the production team is a little unkind. When there are grudges between students, they should at least be told in advance. But from another perspective, there is no rule that students must know each other’s identities. We have never taken the initiative to ask. It’s not appropriate to say that they must be in the wrong.”
Xiaoxiao pouted. “Your mentality is too good. You can even give them a reason.”
Lu Zhen took a sip of the tea on the thermostat and smiled. “Don’t be angry. There are many strange things in the entertainment industry. You’ll get used to it. It’s fine even if Lu Rou participates in this show. It’s not the first time I’ve faced her. Why would I be afraid of her?” With that, she poured a cup of tea and handed it to Xiaoxiao. “Calm down..”
