Five days later.
The time arrived for the premiere of the variety show.
The program group spent a large sum of money to rent a small Western-style house in the city center, where the guests would live together at night and go out to work during the day.
Because of the powerful lineup of guests and the massive amount of promotion beforehand, as soon as the show started, the live stream room was flooded with a large number of netizens.
There was no shortage of onlookers at the live broadcast site either.
Director Hao Dou held the microphone, standing directly in front of the guests, his mouth twisted into a smile.
"Welcome everyone to watch 《Chosen Working Star》, and welcome our five invited guests."
"Now, please have each guest introduce themselves."
"..."
The microphone was passed down one by one, and they were all relatively routine introductions.
Fans were frantically posting bullet comments in the live stream room.
At first, the style was still relatively normal.
When the self-introductions were halfway through, sharp-eyed netizens suddenly discovered a standout among the onlookers.
【The little sister eating spicy gluten strips in the audience successfully caught my attention.】
The director was very savvy and cut the camera over to her.
Consequently, all the netizens in the live stream room saw it clearly.
The girl was holding a large bag of internet-famous spicy gluten strips that was almost as tall as her, pulled one out, held it above her head, and was immersed in eating it with her mouth open.
The bullet comments went crazy with laughter.
【Help! Which guest's standout fan is this?】
【Hahaha, so cute!】
【It would definitely be interesting to marry this woman and bring her home~】
【My wife is making a fool of herself~】
...
Because Lu Ling had faded out of the Yúlè quān for more than two years, and because she was now very different from the Original Body's style, the netizens did not recognize her.
However, the director recognized her.
He inadvertently looked down at the audience and saw this standout, Lu Ling.
Coincidentally, the standout also happened to look up at the stage.
Their eyes met, and Lu Ling held up a spicy gluten strip and gave the director a "kind" smile.
Lu Ling: Hee hee.
Director: Not hee hee.
Bullet comments:
【Hahahaha, there is an interesting soul living inside that little sister.】
【The little sister is fully displaying her social butterfly syndrome.】
【Sure enough, every profession has its standouts.】
...
When the director saw Lu Ling, his face turned black. He had thought that this ancestor was just blowing hot air when she said she "would return," but he didn't expect her to actually come to the recording site.
She must be here to cause trouble.
It infuriated him.
...
Lu Ling had just finished eating a spicy gluten strip and was sucking on her fingers when her phone rang frantically.
She took out her phone and swiped left to answer.
"What's wrong, Sister Jing?"
"What's wrong?" Ye Jing started scolding immediately: "The 《Chosen Working Star》 program group has called with a hundred complaints about you, and you still have the nerve to ask me what's wrong?"
Lu Ling was a bit confused: "Complaints?"
"What are they complaining about me for?"
"I didn't even go on their variety show."
Ye Jing rubbed her temples: "It's just a lousy man; if you've broken up, then you've broken up."
"It's just a lousy variety show; if you aren't on it, then you aren't on it."
"Why do you have to run to their recording site to cause trouble?"
Lu Ling felt wronged; she was just eating some spicy gluten strips, how was that causing trouble?
Ye Jing was so angry that she scolded Lu Ling for ten minutes straight.
After hanging up the phone, Lu Ling's ears were numb.
She was also angry enough to laugh.
Complaining about her? Reporting her?
Very well, that's how you want to play, is it?
That's just great.
OK, I'll let you see what it means to cause trouble.
And so.
The director was leading the guests through the process, and as they were walking, they were suddenly hit by a "storm."
Director: "Now I will emphasize a few points of attention to everyone."
He had just counted "One!"
A loud voice suddenly came from the crowd of onlookers.
"I'm telling you, you're dead!"
Director: （╯‵□′）╯︵┴─┴
Guests: Holding back laughter, holding back laughter.
Bullet comments.
【Hahaha, which standout is this again?】
【Fun fact: It's still the same one who was eating spicy gluten strips earlier.】
【Help, is this person trying to laugh me to death so they can inherit my debt?】
...
Director: "Each person will be given one hundred yuan as seed funding, and after that, you will not be given any more money."
Lu Ling in the audience: "Pay back the money! Pay back the money!"
Director: （╯‵□′）╯︵┴─┴
The director had black lines on his face.
Gu Nianchen also had a darkened face.
Damn Lu Ling, she wouldn't actually ask him for money in public, would she?
The other guests were laughing until they were swaying.
The bullet comments were even more of a laughing mess.
The director couldn't quite hold it together, but he had to force himself to.
"What you can eat, what you can drink, and how well you live in the next few days will all depend on yourselves."
"A reminder, if you can't earn money, there won't be any food..."
In the audience:
"Rat poison, rat poison~"
"Once the rat eats it, it can't run away~"
The director couldn't go on.
He had to pause and send all the staff out to catch Lu Ling.
The staff looked from afar, and Lu Ling was standing right there.
When they walked closer:
Where is she? Where did such a big person go?
Where did she go?
Everyone returned empty-handed.
The director was very angry, but soon, he calmed down.
Forget it, if they can't catch her, they can't catch her; as long as she's gone, it's fine.
"Let's continue."
Fortunately, after restarting the process, that troublesome sound seemed to have disappeared.
The director breathed a sigh of relief.
"Now, please have all the guests perform a lottery draw."
"The work for today will be decided by the lottery draw."
The results of the lottery draw came out quickly.
Top-tier celebrity Gu Nianchen drew: restaurant waiter.
Popular young actress Jiang Yuanyuan: Didi Zhuan Che driver.
Girl group member Ling Yue'er: street performer.
Boy group idol Xu Zhi: delivery person.
Mysterious guest Chi Xian'an: barbecue skewer worker.
The entire lottery draw session ended, and the standout hadn't appeared; the netizens in the live stream room weren't used to it.
【Where is the standout little sister?】
【Was she really scared away by the director?】
【Sigh... with the standout gone, there are a lot fewer laughs.】
【Damn it, Director, give me back my standout!】
...
Without Lu Ling, the director was hee hee again.
He announced: "Now the guests will set off separately and start their first day of work."
Before setting off, the program group gave each guest a walkie-talkie to facilitate communication.
All the guests set off for their respective workplaces.
After a while, the director took out the walkie-talkie to communicate with everyone.
It was fine at the beginning.
After a while, just as the director was getting to the key point, a familiar voice that made him collapse suddenly rang out from the walkie-talkie.
"Hello, hello, hello, is Qiu Ya there? Is Qiu Ya there?"
It was that club, Lu Ling, again.
