Chapter 61: Self-Service Variety Show

Chapter 61

"Since the task is done, can we rest this afternoon?" Qiao Peipei now felt the advantage of joining the show with her brother, they got away with everything.

"Is our program a bit too casual?" Not only did the audience feel this way, but the guests themselves were also doubting. Nowadays, every reality show is full of melodrama, even the lifestyle ones have some dramatic plot. How different was their show from rural trips?

"Don't get bored just yet. We have prepared a new task here." The director suddenly appeared in the yard, out of nowhere.

"Great, a new task!" The audience was more excited than the guests, "Although I came to watch my idol, I must say this show is a bit dull.”

The director raised his megaphone and announced the content of the next task.

"Due to your performance in the last two days, the popularity of our live room has not increased but dropped. So your task now is to find a way to increase the number of followers by 10 million within 24 hours! And maintain a traffic of over 10 million for 24 hours to be counted as successful. Additionally, you need to attract the audience in a reasonable and legitimate way. Sending out red envelopes or other illegitimate methods are strictly banned; this is a green room!”

"Why the emphasis on green? What does a non-green broadcast room look like?"

"If Xiao Mo is willing to show some skin, wouldn't this 10 million come in minutes?"

"The one in front is bold! The director already said it’s a green room, exposing skin may lead to account suspension!”

This time Gu Zhijing immediately raised his hand to ask, "What if we fail the challenge?"

The director smiled slightly, "Good question, if you fail, all the utensils and ingredients in the kitchen right now, as well as the phone given out in the last task, and the ingredients you previously consumed, you all will have to find a way to pay for it and you can’t use your own money. You can only earn it in the village. After everything is paid off, you can leave."

"Come on! This means we can only succeed, not fail." If not, just the cost of the phones would take their lifetime to earn in the village.

"I believe in you all, you can definitely do it. Good luck, goodbye." The director left again after speaking, not taking a piece of cloud with him.

Nian Suian really wanted to complain, this director was way too nonchalant, now they didn't have to think about the form of their tasks anymore, they simply threw it at the guests to brainstorm.

"The director team is really awesome."

〈To the person above, I'm embarrassed for you! Admit it, you just want to gossip! While you're at it, why not talk about the kid's situation too? I have a friend who wants to know〉

〈I also have a friend...〉

Besides the two singers, the other three are actors with no other talents to showcase.

Xiao Mo thought for a moment and then directly announced his next film project to the camera, which was scheduled to start right after this variety show. Mentioning it now was like giving a heads-up.

It's undeniable that the movie star had significant influence. Nian Suian watched as the viewership numbers soared the moment Xiao Mo spoke.

"After this show, I'll be undergoing three months of intensive training to prepare for my next movie. I was planning to announce this through my studio later, but today seems like a good opportunity to let everyone know."

〈Wuwuwu, we won't see brother for three months!〉

The idol's announcement of a three-month intensive training, his last public appearance before that, was indeed very appealing to the fans.

This suddenly made the production team's target seem not so difficult to achieve.

Following that, Pei Sheng and Qiao Peipei just played it by the book, said a few words in front of the camera. However, both of them being newcomers, with not many fans to their names, this approach didn't bring much attention.

When it was Nian Suian's turn, she really was quite lost.

To say, "I hope everyone will support our show," was already her limit.

Gu Zhijing took a different path, bringing out the little cat he had picked up and attracting a handful of cat fans. Though not many, it was better than nothing.

Later, everyone took turns chatting, singing, and showing off their skills till they were exhausted after more than three hours.

Fang Min, feeling sympathetic, prepared chrysanthemum tea for Ren Man and Yue Qingchi, "Singing so much could ruin your voice."

"We should think of a different approach for tomorrow, just doing this won't be enough."
