Entertainment: From the Octagon to the big screen

Chapter 67 - The campaign begins (please follow up)
At 6:25 in the morning on February 15th, the filming team of "Flowers and Boys Season 3" had completed all preparations at Reba's house.

At this moment, everyone was gathering around the chief director Wu Mengzhi and the leading actor Chen Yu, eating breakfast and discussing the details of the shooting.

Wu Mengzhi dipped the crispy fried dough sticks into the hot soy milk and then asked Chen Yu with a hint of confusion in his tone why he didn't apply to be a "tour guide"?
Among the eight guests, only Chen Yu and Zhang Ruoyun voluntarily gave up taking this position.

Even the youngest classmate Song Zuer withdrew from the competition after Wu Mengzhi’s patient persuasion.

Chen Yu took a sip of tomato pasta because he didn't read the script carefully.

I didn’t know that the position of “tour guide” requires guests to “application” in advance.

Then the program team will consider it based on comprehensive factors.

In the end, the two guests who reached the finals were eliminated one-on-one in a single round through a limited-time live broadcast to canvass votes.

"The result of the competition or the position of [tour guide] will be announced at the airport." Wu Mengzhi explained the "rules of the game" to Chen Yu again with a wry smile.

But this is no longer helpful. The program team cannot let Chen Yu "jump in line" because of his carelessness.

Therefore, Chen Yu can only be a "spectator" and vote for one of the two people, Chen Bolin or Jing Boran, with his "sacred vote".

Chen Yu, who was holding a spoon in his left hand, gently scraped the plate clean and put the last bit of tomato sauce into his mouth.

I learned this from Kobe when I trained with him before.

"Black Mamba" repeatedly warned Chen Yu that top professional athletes would never waste food.

Although Chen Yu didn't understand what he meant until now.

But it does not prevent Chen Yu from emulating Kobe.

"Then why do you use your left hand to hold things like tableware and water glasses?" Wu Mengzhi is very observant and very careful.

In just over seventy minutes of getting along, we discovered tiny details that even Reba hadn't noticed.

Chen Yu raised his eyebrows and explained straightforwardly that this was his intention to use his daily life to exercise the flexibility of his left hand.

Although the "coordination and balance" of both hands will be emphasized during training, only by integrating the training content into the twenty-four hours can the effect of getting twice the result with half the effort be achieved.

This process is very boring, because it means that Chen Yu has almost no "time" that is completely his own in the true sense.

So Chen Yu was very irritated when taking a bath, but he still used his left hand to play with toys.

After chatting with Wu Mengzhi for a while, Chen Yu asked her if she could not vote?
When the votes of the eight guests were finally counted at the airport, there were only seven. Was it a surprise or surprise?
Upon hearing Chen Yu's suggestion, Wu Mengzhi felt that the big boss in front of him didn't even read the script!

"We are not voting by secret ballot, but directly voting for Chen Bolin or Jing Boran at the airport." Wu Mengzhi instantly felt that the crispy fried dough sticks and fragrant soy milk in his hands were "bland".

In fact, Reba read the script of the show to Chen Yu before going to bed every night.

Read a short paragraph at a time, because she wants to find the "role sense" of being a "baby mother" in advance.

But sometimes Reba would read intermittently when she was so absorbed in watching it, and she would skip lines or even pages.

But Chen Yu couldn't tell Wu Mengzhi about this.

I had no choice but to endure the pain of being "wronged" and "misunderstood" in silence.

Program coordinator Wang Xubo took advantage of the booth where Wu Mengzhi was explaining the general recording process of "Flowers and Boys Season 3" to Chen Yu, and took a look at the sweet photo of Chen Yu and Reba in the living room. What he was wondering at the moment was whether he could take the opportunity to " "Consumption" under Reba.

"Your proposal is too [radical] and needs further study and discussion." Wu Mengzhi did not reject it directly but left a lot of face to his colleagues in front of Chen Yu.

In fact, what Wu Mengzhi was thinking about was what if Rebala was suddenly brought in and stimulated the "love brain" Nazha?
The saying "Nazha is the most beautiful north of the Yangtze River" has spread on the Internet last year.

This young lady who is the same age as Reba and comes from the same hometown has successfully gained a large number of loyal fans due to her appearance and figure.

In fact, Wu Mengzhi can't say who is more beautiful, Reba or Nazha. After all, aesthetics is very personal and subjective.

"There are five of the four beauties of New Province." As for which five people are nominated, there are certain differences.

In Chen Yu's eyes, Reba is number one, but in Zhang Han's mind, Naza may be number one.

So there is no way to evaluate or form a unified opinion.

In order to avoid direct disputes that would have an unpredictable impact on the show, Wu Mengzhi also couldn't let Reba and Nazha share the same screen.

But having said that, Chen Yu will definitely have something like "Who is more beautiful between me and Reba" in the show?

Don't look at Nazha's soft and delicate appearance in private, as if she could be beaten to tears with one punch.

But this young lady who is only thirty-two days older than Reba has a lot on her mind.

Yesterday afternoon, after Chen Yu and Reba completed the general cleaning and some exercise, they went out to celebrate Valentine's Day.

In the evening, we went back to Reba's parents' house in Wangjing's Jinmao Mansion to watch the "Valentine's Day Special" of "Longing for Life Season 1".

Then Reba stayed at her parents' house. She had no intention of stealing the limelight from the four female guests in "Flowers and Boys Season 3".

"The ratings for last night's episode of "Longing for Life Season 1" [Valentine's Day Special] were so good that they exploded."

Wu Mengzhi raised his wrist to look at his watch, drank the soy milk in one gulp, and sighed with envy in a low voice.

But what she didn't say was that while Reba, Chen Yu, and Mao Xiaotong were widely praised, Chen Xiang was severely criticized.

At 8:15, Wu Mengzhi, who had helped Chen Yu clean up and wash the dishes, gave the order for "Flowers and Boys Season 3" to officially set sail!
Because Chen Yu was not using the mobile phone provided by the program sponsor, the camera assistant directly connected him to the TV.

"Do you need a nickname?" Chen Yu asked as he fiddled with the live broadcast software he had just downloaded.

After returning to China, he also watched live broadcasts, but the only one he paid attention to was the console game anchor "Yinzi" who was also from Jinmen.

Executive director Li Chao, who now took over the command of the scene, said that Chen Yu could use a "code name" to confuse Chen Bolin and Jing Boran.

Chen Yu turned sideways and looked at the camera assistant next to him and asked him if he had any good suggestions.

"Little Dee next door?" As soon as the camera assistant said this, everyone in the room immediately judged him as a "bad name".

Although the eight guests all know each other's names, they want to give the audience the feeling that everyone is "kept in the dark".

So it's best to avoid using nicknames that are too "personal."

"Then let's call him [No. 7]. I hope Messi won't be jealous that I didn't choose him."

Chen Yu tapped the camera with his finger and excused himself with a smile in Spanish.

Five minutes later, eight guests from this season have gathered in the "Tour Guide Campaign" room of "Mango Live".

Yanjing Little Dolphin: Here comes the first "victim".

The old boy is very cute: Do you think "tour guide" is equal to "group leader"? Riding a donkey, finding a horse and chasing a camel: it’s really fun.

Chen Yu, Zhou Yangqing and Nazha remained silent and secretly peeked at the screen.

The first person to come on stage to canvass votes was Chen Bolin, who had not yet figured out the situation.

This big brother gave Chen Yu the impression that he was "tricked" into the live broadcast room by the program crew just after he woke up and dried his hair.

"Poor Chen Bolin" Zhou Yangqing turned to the camera, twitching the corners of his lips and said that he would most likely vote for him.

Then he naturally clicked into the "recharge interface" and prepared to give Chen Bolin a small amount of 200,000 to boost his morale.

Fortunately, the assistant in charge of lighting noticed Zhou Yangqing's movements with sharp eyes, and quickly reminded her that she could just send the gifts if she had pre-purchased gifts in her account.

Chen Yu looked at Chen Bolin who was not in the mood at all and didn't even feel the feeling. He felt that he would vote for him too.

"There is a line in "Rocky" that a bad preview is the beginning of success. I feel that this brother has hit rock bottom now."

In addition, for Chen Yu, it doesn't matter if anyone can be a "tour guide".

Africa may not be close, but in South America he definitely has a lot of friends.

At this moment, Chen Bolin had no idea what to say when faced with the barrage of fancy questions.

I can only talk to myself and express gratitude for the small gifts that came out of my mouth.

The "personal canvassing show" only lasted ten minutes before the atmosphere fell into awkwardness.

Dou, Dou, Dou: Please sing and refuse to talk awkwardly.

Virgo Xiaomi La: Please talk about your dream, Mr. Tour Guide, who has gone further and further.

Chen Yu remained silent. This was not because he was showing off, but because he didn't know what to say to Chen Bolin.

After chatting about the weather, movies and sports for a while, Chen Bolin finally made it to the final countdown for thirty minutes.

Chen Bolin, who was completely at a loss for words, used the stipulation that "if you fail in the election, you will be exiled" to beg for votes.

At this moment, the "No. 2 candidate" Jing Boran has already cleaned up handsomely and neatly.

So as soon as he appeared, he suppressed Chen Bolin, who had just "woke up" before.

In addition, Chen Yu can also see from the number of interactions and frequency of posting of barrages that Jing Boran's popularity seems to be slightly higher than that of Chen Bolin.

In addition, Jing Boran is the "veteran" of "Flowers and Boys", so Chen Yu thinks that he has a higher chance of being elected as the "tour guide".

And Jing Boran has obviously made very detailed preparations.

Chen Yu even suspected that he read it according to the manuscript.

After all, it is impossible to condense all your advantages into saying something quickly that runs out of words in your head within thirty seconds.

“After seeing Jing Boran’s campaign speech, will you still vote for Chen Bolin?”

After hearing the staff's question, Chen Yu took a sip of slightly cold soda water and nodded firmly.

Because there should be a lot of people jumping into Jing Boran, Chen Yu didn't want to join in the fun.

Furthermore, Chen Yu didn't like what Jing Boran said very much: he pursues perfection and will try his best to ensure that everyone is satisfied in the process of being a "tour guide".

This is a "hell-level task" comparable to leading the men's football team to the World Cup.

"Jing Boran lacks the energy to speak the truth." Chen Yu pinched his thumb and little finger together and shook them at the camera.

Zhou Yangqing even thought that Mr. Jing did not have the "dominance" to control the situation.

But in the live broadcast room, "Doua Doua" and "Yanjing Little Dolphin" frantically showered Jing Boran with gifts.

"If you were asked to rate two candidates, how many would you rate each?"

Chen Yu rubbed the tip of his nose with his fingers. If we were talking about "campaign speeches" alone, Jing Boran would definitely have the advantage and get 90 points.

And Chen Bolin, who was almost stunned the whole time, only scored 70 points at most.

The two "tour guide" candidates who were being commented on "behind the scenes" received the second task:

Make a phone call to make an appointment with other members for offline one-on-one canvassing.

"Hello, hello, I'm Jing Boran, Jing Bao." Jing Boran wrinkled his nose at the camera. This was his first phone call, hoping everything went well.

Chen Yu asked executive director Li Chao if he could identify himself? The latter nodded slightly.

"Well, hello, Mr. Jing, I'm Chen Yu." Chen Yu weighed the soda bottle and raised his eyebrows at the camera.

Although Chen Yu's voice is soft, it matches the temperament of his boy next door very well.

But Jing Boran still felt nervous after hearing the word "Chen Yu".

So he unconsciously lowered his volume by three points again and chatted extremely politely with Chen Yu.

The two agreed to meet at Chen Yu's (Reba) house at eight o'clock tomorrow morning for a detailed discussion.

Ten minutes later, Chen Bolin also called.

This guy from Taiwan, who knows a little bit about boxing, successfully used this topic to break into the conversation.

And agreed to meet at ten o'clock tomorrow morning.

After putting down the phone, Chen Bolin leaned on the sofa and took a deep breath.

"World-class boxing champion! Although his voice is super nice, he is one of the most capable humans on the planet!"

Chen Bolin untied his scarf and let the camera take a picture of the edge that was damp with sweat.

He is both looking forward to and anxious about tomorrow's meeting.

"If Chen Yu doesn't like me, I think being exiled is a good thing!"

Chen Bolin said to the camera with a wry smile.

And his assistant said mercilessly: Chen Yu only likes Reba.

　3531, I hope everyone can interact more and ask for further reading.
