My performance on a breakup reality show brought Tien Hsi-wei to tears, and I became an internet sen

Chapter 136 Complaining about the Sponsors

Sanya City.

airport.

Sun Yuan, the assistant director of the program, held up a welcome sign and anxiously watched the passengers walk out.

The production team needed Li Shen to drive to pick up the other guests one by one.

But Li Shen's flight was delayed.

At that moment, Sun Yuan received a notification that Zhou Shen had been waiting for him on the roadside in the city for quite some time.

Sun Yuan looked at the Huami Auto staff: "How about we skip recording the part about Li Shen's product placement?"

Huami Auto is the title sponsor of this program.

To better promote its products, Huami specially sent several employees to the show to introduce the car's performance and functions to the guests who were driving.

The HuaMi employee shook his head: "That won't do. Li Shen is a very popular guest. If his segment isn't recorded, I won't be able to deliver."

"But Zhou Shen is waiting."

"Then please wait a few more minutes, Teacher Zhou."

95

Sun Yuan looked at his sugar daddy and reluctantly agreed, "Okay."

Upon seeing Li Shen, Sun Yuan quickly raised his welcome sign and hurried over to greet him.

Several cameras behind him immediately turned on, and the live stream began, with the signal from this location being connected to the live stream screen.

Live stream chat:

Wow, Dog Bro is also on this show?!

[I haven't seen Li Gou's live stream for two months, my happiness is back!]

Welcome back, Dog Bro!

Assistant director Sun Yuan extended his hand in greeting: "Hello, Teacher Li, it's a pleasure to meet you."

"Hello there."

"This is the task card for the show."

Li Shen took the mission card and looked at it carefully.

[Mission: Please drive to the designated location, pick up the other guests one by one, and head together to Peach Blossom Village ————]

-

The group walked toward the airport parking lot.

Assistant Director: "Mr. Li, when we see your car later, please give the car's manufacturer a soft advertisement."

A Huami employee handed Li Shen a piece of paper, which he glanced at. It was an introduction to the special features of this new energy vehicle.

For example, zero-gravity seats, AI-powered in-car systems, hidden door handles, and high-end customized in-car refrigerators —

Li Shen waved his hand: "I'm not someone who resists cooperation, but I'm an honest person. I suggest you find someone else to do this job."

Assistant Director: "All the guests will give their opinions on this car, whether they are driving or riding in it. Just give your honest opinion. If it's inappropriate, we'll edit it out later."

Li Shen walked along, glancing at the car company's promotional leaflet. It detailed the evaluation process for the car.

When guests see the car, they first praise its appearance, then sit inside and comment on the riding experience, the intelligence of the in-car system, and so on.

Meanwhile, on a street in the city, guest Lang Lang was driving a Huami electric car and was bragging: "The development of domestic new energy vehicles in recent years has been too fast. This car system is really too intelligent. It is said to have reached the intelligence of a five-year-old child."

In comparison, traditional luxury cars are far behind in terms of in-car infotainment systems; they seem like products of the last century.

Zhou Jie in the back row: "So, will you sell your Bentley?"

Lang Lang paused for a moment, then remained silent for a few seconds: "Old cars represent nostalgia, new energy vehicles represent the future. I embrace the future, but I also cherish the past."

The comments section was filled with sarcastic remarks:

Lang Lang has mastered the art of interpersonal relationships.

[He has absolutely no artist's personality!]

This brilliant answer disappointed me.

Despite being a famous piano master, Lang Lang doesn't have that detached, down-to-earth feeling that's typical of piano masters.

He has a high EQ and is very tactful; he's been on many variety shows in recent years.

This time, he once again brought his wife to the set. His wife, Gina, is also a well-known variety show personality.

Gina, sitting in the passenger seat, began praising the comfort of the Queen's Seat.

In the back seat of the car, besides Zhou Jie, Guo Qilin was also sitting.

This car is heading to its next destination to pick up another guest.

Li Shen walked into the airport parking lot, and when he saw Huami Motors, he couldn't help but let out a soft "Wow".

"This car is quite beautiful!" Li Shen said honestly.

Assistant director's voice-over: "Teacher Li, could you use one word to vividly describe the beauty of this car?"

"Porsche".

Assistant Director:

'

""

HuaMi employees:

'

, Bullet comments:

[Incredible! This car is a blatant rip-off of Porsche!]

[Phew! That familiar taste is back!]

[Tsk tsk tsk, thumbs up for Li Gou!]

Huami Auto has indeed drawn design inspiration from Porsche and other cars, but whether it is borrowing or plagiarism is a matter of endless debate among netizens.

A Huami employee said, "Good designs are all about mutual understanding. Like this long, elegant front end—"

Li Shen asked, "Porsche has a long hood because it needs to house a V8 twin-turbocharged engine. What's the purpose of the Huami trolley's long hood?"

The Huami employee was taken aback: "We did this to leave more storage space in the front trunk, which is one of Huami's human-centered design features."

Li Shen shook his head: "Wrong. The reason why Huami cars have long hoods is because Porsches have long hoods."

HuaMi employee: "————"

【pretty!】

[Li Gou, please continue!]

Holy crap, Dog Bro's mouth is amazing, haha!

Li Shen reached for the hidden door handle, pulled it open, and sat inside.

The assistant director reminded, "Ms. Li, could you please come out for a moment? We need to re-record the video of the door opening."

-

Li Shen: "???"

"You forgot to comment on the concealed door handles."

Li Shen got out of the car and looked at the assistant director again: "I really don't recommend that you let me do sponsored content. I'm a very real and sincere person, and you probably won't like to hear what I say."

Other guests might be able to go against their conscience and promote something to the audience, but Li Shen wouldn't.

While he may not be considered morally superior, Li Shen certainly had his bottom line.

The bottom line is that, as a public figure, he cannot mislead the public into making wrong decisions.

The live stream viewers were quite dissatisfied with Li Shen's remarks:

We do not accept your suggestion!

[Li Gou, you absolutely must say more!]

The production team doesn't like to hear this, the GG (Girls' Association) business owners don't like to hear this, but dog lovers will!

"It's okay, Ms. Li, just be yourself. We'll edit it as needed in post-production. Okay, let's record again."

Seeing Li Shen place his hand on the doorknob again, the assistant director asked, "Mr. Li, what's your opinion on Huami Auto's concealed door handles?"

Where's the hand? It has automatic sensing and pop-out functions —

Li Shen succinctly pointed out: "Designing for the sake of design, over-designing."

Assistant Director: "————"

HuaMi employee: "Teacher Li, the hidden door handle design is to reduce wind resistance when driving."

"A design that reduces wind resistance by 0.0001 but increases vehicle weight by 8 kilograms?"

Assistant director prompts Li Shen: "Teacher Li, isn't there any convenient way to use a hidden door handle?"

"Yes, it makes it easier for drivers to meet their maker quickly."

When a driver is involved in a car accident, the occupants face a life-or-death situation, and rescue personnel may also encounter a similar ordeal.

The lips of the Huami employee trembled.

[In many cases, after a car accident, the electronic retractable door handles simply malfunction and become impossible to open.]

Holy crap, it has to be Li Gou again!

[The ultimate mouth double is back online after 2 months!]

"The gates of hell, the gates of hell," Li Gou's words are a double entendre!

[Besides Li Gou, there's no one else who dares to speak up for consumers on a public platform and say such things!]

[Just because you're so brave, I'm a fan!]

Open the car door.

The ambient lighting inside the car is on, and the car's infotainment system is starting up.

A HuaMi employee said, "Later, you can call out 'HuaMi classmate' to control the whole car with your voice."

As the Huami employee spoke, the car's infotainment system started playing a promotional message on the splash screen: "Huami Phone 17 is coming soon!"

Li Shen: "Hua Mi, turn off GG."

The car's infotainment system ignored him and continued: "Huami phone, 2-megapixel optical output—"

Li Shen: "Turn off the ads!!"

In-car infotainment system: "First release online —"

Employee: "Teacher Li, the computer boots up for 15 seconds and can't be turned off. You can only turn it off if you become a member."

Li Shen frowned: "This car infotainment system is pretty clunky!"

Haha, beautiful!

[Li Gou's witty comment!]

[If I see my wife leaving in another car and want to catch her cheating, do I have to become a paid member first?]

These new energy vehicle companies have no shame!

[The moves by domestic new energy vehicle manufacturers are truly impressive!]

They've spent all the time they would have spent researching automotive technology studying consumers.

Many features of new energy vehicles, such as heated steering wheels and automatic parking, all require payment.

The most disgusting thing is that some new energy vehicles initially offer all functions for free, and after you've developed good usage habits, a pop-up window suddenly appears a year later: the free period has ended, and you need to pay to use it.

Do you think there will ever be a day when you even have to pay for brakes? Haha!

After navigating to his destination, Li Shen looked at the HuaMi employee and asked, "Oh, by the way, will there be any GGs interfering during the ride?"

Employee: "Uh—"

The employee was completely taken aback by the question, and hesitated for a moment before saying, "There might be a few exceptions. For example, the 2-megapixel Huami phone—a friendly reminder: there's a high-speed camera ahead, and the image quality is just as clear as the Huami 17—"

Li Shen: "————"

Li Shen recalled the questionable practices of many new energy vehicle companies in his previous life.

This life isn't much different from the previous one: some car companies have no shame whatsoever.

Li Shen asked again, "Won't reversing cause problems?"

The employee shook his head vigorously: "There's no problem with reversing. As long as it involves driving operations, there's nothing wrong with it. Please drive with peace of mind."

"That's good. If I also get stuck while backing up, I really don't know if it's me backing up, or the times that are turning back!"
