You are a star, why do you have all the skills from the underworld?

Chapter 87 Interview with the program team
Time to enter September.

In early autumn, everything is mature and ready to move.Even the leaves on the roadside have begun to turn yellow and are crumbling. If the wind blows randomly, you don't know where it will blow.

Xu Yi's business endorsements have also come to an end for the time being. Now that Chu Ningning has passed the news, he can calmly wait for the "Island Escape" program team.

It's just an interview, don't be nervous.

On this day, after Xu Yi had breakfast, he suddenly received a call from Zhao Guoming. The content was concise and to the point, and he wanted to invite Xu Yi to a party.

"This is a good opportunity. You can just come and sing a song, even recite a poem!" Zhao Guoming on the other end of the phone was persuasive: "Think about how many people are paying attention to the Mid-Autumn Festival Gala at the main station. I just went all out and asked the superiors to help me, so I got a quota."

Xu Yi was not moved at all.

Just kidding, if you want to come up with a single, at least there are millions of sound editors who can help. If the mixing effects are added in the post-processing, even gods will not be able to hear the original sound.But... singing at a party?

Wouldn't that cost someone else's life?

"Captain Zhao, I'm afraid this isn't going to work!"

"You also know that I am in the entertainment industry purely for my appearance. If I could sing, how could I still make others hum in the music industry after all these years? Haha?"

"If you really let me go up, I'll tell a joke on the stage. Do you think that's okay?"

Xu Yihun's generous excuses made Zhao Guoming confused.

Zhao Guoming: "Do you think it's okay? That's the main station! It's the Mid-Autumn Festival Party! People all over the country will watch it!"

Perhaps feeling helpless, Zhao Guoming sighed and said:
"Okay, okay, I won't force this matter. Your talent may not lie in singing at all, just be yourself."

After hanging up the phone, Xu Yi was still mumbling: It's not impossible to tell jokes. Isn't cross talk just an advanced joke?
Although many times, many crosstalks are not advanced.

Xu Yi shook his head. When he came to this world, it seemed that he had not heard cross talk for a while.I don’t know if Deyunshe is still here, or if there is a replacement?You can search it another day.

Shortly after ending the call with Zhao Guoming, Fat Orange found Xu Yi and brought the long-lost news.

The "Island Escape" program team wants to interview Xu Yi!

"You're not surprised at all?" Fat Orange saw that Xu Yi was calm and composed, and then thought: "Yes, you seemed to have said before that the captain introduced this variety show to you."

Xu Yi nodded.

What was supposed to come was coming. He had been preparing for this interview these days. If he messed up, would he have defrauded Zhao Guoming and Chang Zhenghua?I am also an anti-fraud propaganda ambassador...

It doesn't look good if this is a big deal.

"Sister Ju, when is the interview scheduled?"

"The sooner the better."

Fat Orange seems to always have a piece of information in his hand, "I received news that this time the program team has selected ten celebrity candidates in China, and will probably choose two to three from them. Mainly to examine the celebrity's popularity and market In terms of influence, past works, etc., to be honest, you’re a bit at a disadvantage.”

After hearing this, Xu Yi felt bad.

Is this a fucking show or an award selection?

Could it be that this escape variety show can also award a globally recognized lifetime honor award?

Xu Yi shrugged and said:

"It's okay. Maybe the show team sees me as handsome and makes an exception and accepts me?"

"Ah, this..." Fat Orange was shocked by Xu Yi's shamelessness. She murmured: "It's good. At least in terms of self-confidence, we will definitely not lose. Then, how about I tell the other party that time Set for tomorrow?"

Xu Yi followed suit: "No problem, the sooner the better."

……

The casting team for the "Island Escape" program stayed at the Binjiang Hotel in Shanghai, and most of the celebrities they invited to meet would choose this place.This is a cross-border program, which is an opportunity for many domestic stars.

There are two reasons:

First, it can expand its influence overseas and facilitate future contacts with overseas film and television resources.

Secondly, you can also take the path of "flowers outside the wall and fragrance within the wall". When this program is broadcast, the artist's promotional materials can be said to have participated in large-scale multinational variety shows, which is also a potential increase for the artist's worth. .

All in all, this is a good opportunity.

It was [-]:[-] in the morning when Xu Yi and Pang Ju arrived at the Binjiang Hotel.

Xu Yi made an appointment with the other party to meet at ten o'clock, but Xu Yi deliberately arrived ten minutes early.Fat Orange is responsible for contacting the other party, arranging time, and promoting various aspects of the interview. This is equivalent to the agent doing the assistant's work.

"Mr. Xu, welcome!" The person responsible for receiving Xu Yi turned out to have an oriental face.This also surprised Xu Yi: As for the cross-border variety show that was agreed upon, should we co-write it or be one of our own people?
The man seemed to notice Xu Yi's surprise and explained with a smile:
"Our program is jointly invested and developed by investment companies from several countries. Therefore, according to the principle of doing as the locals do, when selecting stars from the host country, we usually use staff from the local country. My surname is Zhou, and Mr. Xu calls me Xiao Zhou That’s all, I hope I can serve Mr. Xu well.”

Xu Yi said politely: "Thank you~"

After entering the hotel gate, take the elevator and go directly to the executive floor.

The program team specially rented a large administrative suite for work, and there were already seven or eight staff members inside who were busy.Only then did Xu Yi hear that there were various languages. He remained calm. Seeing that these people all had earphones on their ears, he knew that this was a simultaneous interpretation tool.

Xiao Zhou led Xu Yi to the door of the room, knocked on the door three times, and then said to Xu Yi:

"Mr. Xu, people from the program producer are already inside. Please go in and discuss in detail. If you have any needs, you can ask them at any time and we will solve your problems in time."

Xu Yi still said two words: "Thank you~!"

Opening the door, there were three 'interviewers' sitting inside. Xu Yi sat down calmly.He said nothing and looked at the three people in front of him.There are two men and one woman. The woman is sitting on the left side. She is wearing a red windbreaker, which is very eye-catching.In contrast, the other two men are much more low-key. The man in the middle also has a short beard, presumably to show off his sex appeal. The man on the right is wearing sunglasses and sitting in a posture that looks like he is [-], as if he has a lot of sex appeal. Yi is not here for an interview, but to discuss debt repayment.

The bearded man held an A4 paper in his hand, which should be Xu Yi's resume.

"Mr. Xu, hello!"

"I'm sorry to take up your precious time to participate in the interview for the "Island Escape" program. Our total investment in this program is more than [-] million, and the program format is also the most popular escape and capture format at the moment. Mr. Xu must have experienced this. learn."

Xu Yi nodded, and then told the truth:

"My understanding is very limited. You are really good at keeping confidentiality." The bearded man said with a smile: "The program has not started recording yet, so we always have to retain some mystery." After a pause, he continued: "Mr. Xu, we have checked your information. You are not only a household name in Longguo, but at least you are well-known in the streets and alleys. I would like to ask, why do you accept so many advertisements? Is it because of lack of money, or Is it for other reasons?”

"Of course it's not a lack of money."

What a joke, who the hell can admit that?

Xu Yi calmly argued: "I did accept some business endorsements, but they were all sponsored by brands. However, you may not know that I am also the anti-fraud ambassador of our National Anti-Fraud Center. This is purely An endorsement of public welfare.”

Naturally, Xu Yi would not tell anyone about the 100 million remuneration.

Besides, even if you say it, not many people will believe it.

The bearded man was not surprised when he heard this.

The matter of anti-fraud ambassadors has long been included in their research reports.Generally speaking, if a celebrity can play such a role, it means that it has been officially recognized. When such a celebrity is used, the possibility of house collapse will be much smaller.

Just listen to the bearded man ask: "Mr. Xu, don't you think that excessive business endorsements will shorten the career life of an artist? Moreover, among the brand categories you endorse, there seem to be some women's products. Have you considered whether there is a fit between the two?”

paralyzed.

Isn't it just a variety show, asking questions, asking whether these useless things are of any use?
Just ask me directly, how much do you pay, and see if you can hire me?You have to do these nonsense things in a high-sounding way!A hint of unhappiness flashed through Xu Yi's heart, but he still replied:
"I don't think it has any impact."

"The shorter my career as an artist is, the better because I want to retire early."

Bearded Man:…

Hearing this, the man in sunglasses sat up straight and seemed to start looking at Xu Yi.As for the woman in the red trench coat, she frowned and looked at Xu Yi doubtfully. It seemed that she had never heard such an answer from any artist.

This is so strange!

Seeing that the three of them were "shocked" by him, Xu Yi asked directly:
"Excuse me, can I ask a few questions?"

Bearded man: "Of course. If Mr. Xu has any questions, you can ask them directly."

Xu Yi came prepared. He had prepared a lot of homework for this interview in the past few days.Just listen to Xu Yi's first question: "I want to know, where is the recording location of this show?"

Although Lao Zhao and Chu Ningning both said with certainty that the recording location of the show would be Mamon Island.I also worked hard and drew more than 100 map manuscripts, almost engraving the entire topography of Mamoun Island in my mind.But what if the recording location is not on Mamoun Island?

So, this question is the source of all problems.

"Isle Mamoun."

The bearded man did not hide it. In fact, the pre-heating of this show has already begun since the selection of guests.So, the recording location is no secret. "Mr. Xu may be a little unfamiliar with this place. This is an independent island in the Western Pacific. The program team has obtained the right to use the island. All guests participating in the program can do their best and use all methods to complete their tasks. .”

Knew it!
Lao Zhao and the others still have some energy!

I just don't understand, since it can be done for this purpose, why can't we just rescue people directly?Xu Yi made up his mind: next time he sees Director Chu, he must ask him carefully.

"Indeed, I have never heard of it." His expression did not change, and he took over the conversation naturally and continued: "Second question, if you are lucky enough to participate in this program, in what form will the program be broadcast?"

Bearded Man: “A combination of live broadcast and recording.”

This is also consistent with the program information I saw online.It seems that the program team also wants to control the program. When it is inconvenient to live broadcast, they will use recorded scenes instead to achieve the best program effect.

In this case, if you go to the South Island to save people, you may not be broadcast live.

After thinking about this clearly, Xu Yi asked again:

"OK."

"Last question, do you have insurance for this show? If not, I can recommend one to you. Longguo Life Insurance, reliable, professional, and pays out quickly..."

amount……

The three people sitting across from each other looked at each other. Is this really an artist?
Could it be that an insurance salesman came from somewhere and deliberately pretended to be an artist to do business here?

The bearded man coughed twice and answered Xu Yi's question very formally: "Thank you Mr. Xu for your kindness, but please rest assured Mr. Xu that the program team will take appropriate security measures, including the island's medical rescue team and marine emergency speedboats. , as well as the personal insurance of all guests, we will purchase it in full, and there will definitely be no problems in this regard."

Xu Yi spread his hands: "Then I have no problem~"

"I'm sorry, Mr. Xu." The bearded man finally found his thoughts and continued his interview: "We have another question here, and I hope Mr. Xu can answer it honestly. According to our inquiries, Mr. Xu seems to have no problem since his debut. What kind of literary and artistic works? Apart from participating in one of your domestic online variety shows, you can say that you have nothing in the fields of music, stage plays, film and television dramas, etc. This... Mr. Xu, can you explain it? "

Still got this far.

Xu Yi's family knows about his family affairs, but this kind of thing cannot be said to be because he has no resources and has spent so many years in the entertainment industry.That would only make it appear that he is not favored by capital and his talents are limited.

"of course can!"

Xu Yi didn't think for too long. Over time, the other party would definitely feel that he was making up lies on the spot.You must answer in time, so that even if you are making up lies, the other party will feel that you have made it up in advance and that you are fully prepared for everything.

Xu Yi took a deep breath and said confidently: "Actually, since my debut, I have been concentrating on honing myself most of the time. Next, there will be work in film and television. Of course, I will also have music works that I will see you soon, right away I will be on stage to sing at the main station’s Mid-Autumn Festival Gala that will be broadcast soon.”

These words are completely made up and sold now.

After listening to the three people opposite, it seemed that they could find no other faults.The bearded man could only say:
"Then we will look forward to Mr. Xu's new song."

"This interview is here for now. Whether we decide to formally invite Mr. Xu to participate in the program, we will notify you at the end of the month. In addition, thank you very much, Mr. Xu, for coming to participate in this interview. Thank you."

Xu Yi walked out of the room without any concern.

He said everything that needed to be done and said.

The rest will be left to Lao Zhao and the others... However, the result will not be notified until the end of the month?The Mid-Autumn Festival party seems to be before the end of the month, right?Xu Yi seemed to have thought of something bad. He quickly got into the elevator, went downstairs, and then took out his cell phone to check.

The Main Station Mid-Autumn Festival Party will be held at 9:25 pm on September 8th.

Great!
Didn't this damn guy dig a big hole for himself?If this cheating program team insists on waiting until the Mid-Autumn Festival Gala to finalize the guest list, wouldn't he fall short?
Xu Yi stood at the door of Binjiang Hotel, thinking to himself:

Do you really want to go on stage and tell a joke?
