A Top-Tier Life Begins with Sarcastic Phrases

Chapter 156 Departure 2, Wang Hailong's Invitation

Around 5 p.m., Gu Yun and Chen Momo arrived in Sanya.

Unlike the cold inland areas, Sanya feels like summer.

Upon arriving at the hotel, Gu Yun immediately changed into a short-sleeved shirt and shorts. A refreshing breeze swept over him, making him feel relaxed and happy.

"Phew~ Here I come, ocean!"

Chen Momo changed into her swimsuit and went to the beach to play in the water. She decided to take a set of photos to share with her girlfriends who were still working overtime.

"Working overtime like slaves is tiring enough; someone has to go see the world for them!"

Gu Yun chuckled: "Do you know how annoying that is?"

"I know~"

Chen Momo said earnestly, "But if I don't act shamelessly this time, I won't have another chance!"

Recording for the show doesn't start until tomorrow, so Gu Yun is off today, and Chen Momo got a half-day off.

Gu Yun first went to chat with Wang Hailong for a while.

Regarding the filming plans for "Let's Go Now 3".

For these wildly popular variety shows, often the third season is already in the planning stages before the second season is even finished filming.

"The third season is scheduled to begin filming in July."

Wang Hailong lay back in his chair, sipping coconut juice. His hair had been completely shaved off a few days ago, leaving his forehead shiny. "I was thinking that when you become a big star, I'd like to ride on your coattails and get some attention too~"

Gu Yun chuckled: "No need for that, Brother Wang. Just call me, and I'll be there whenever you need me."

Wang Hailong can be considered Gu Yun's benefactor.

If it weren't for him, Gu Yun would still be doing stand-up comedy, how would he have had the opportunity to get to where he is now?

"If that's how you put it, then I do have something to tell you."

Wang Hailong didn't stand on ceremony; they were all brothers, and there was no point in all that formality.

"What?"

"Tencent has planned another travel-themed variety show, with an S-level investment, and filming is expected to begin next March."

First, the video "Let's Go Traveling Together" became a viral hit, and then the first and second parts of "Let's Go Now" generated a lot of discussion online.

Wang Hailong is now a hot commodity in the eyes of Tencent's top management, and they have quickly developed a travel variety show and asked him to direct it.

Filming will begin in March, and the show will premiere in July.

With Earth Fresh off the air, he has to seamlessly transition to filming "Departure 3," truly being used like a nuclear-powered ox by the penguins.

"Doesn't this clash with [Departure 3]?"

Gu Yun was a little confused. Two variety shows of the same type were airing at the same time, both in July. Wouldn't that make them competitors?

What's the meaning behind Tencent's move in this regard?

"No, no, no, it's not the same."

Wang Hailong waved his hand: "The guests that Earth's Fresh is planning to invite are all young people like you. It's also a travel variety show, but the target audience is more clearly defined!"

"However, how should I put it, the guests currently being considered for invitation are Tian Xiwei, Wang Anyu, Fan Chengcheng, and Chen Duling —"

"I'm worried they won't have the chemistry, and there's no one in charge, you know? They're all too young, so I'd like to invite you to stay on as a permanent staff member."

"No—" Gu Yun scratched his head, "Am I that old? Brother Wang! Of all the people you mentioned, I'm the youngest!"

"Hahaha~"

Wang Hailong slapped his forehead and laughed, "I forgot, I forgot. Tsk, Xiao Gu, you're too mature. I forgot you're younger than them."

"But the meaning is still the same."

"We teamed up when we went on a trip together. I trust you to handle things. This variety show is all young people, and I feel at ease with you on board."

Fan Chengcheng and Wang Anyu certainly made the show very entertaining.

In episodes 1 and 2, the two contributed many memorable scenes.

But if you think about it carefully, Fan Chengcheng's humor is sometimes a bit over the top. In the departure group, Shen Teng and Jia Bing are able to tolerate it, so it doesn't seem like a big problem.

However, in the new variety show, which is full of young people, some overly offensive jokes can easily cause awkwardness.

Although Wang Anyu is funny, most of the time his humor is passive; someone has to tease him to make it come out.

Although the characters in these classic scenes, such as "Brother Stick" and "General Wang," are actually Wang Anyu, Shen Teng played a significant role in making them classics.

Gu Yun, however, was different. This old fellow always gave Wang Hai a feeling of being handsome, cunning, and sly, with the same charm as Shen Teng.

"So, how about it, want to come?"

Wang Hailong extended an invitation.

This drama is targeted at a young audience, so it's not appropriate to invite an older person like Shen Teng to be a regular cast member.

Among the young people, the only one he could think of who could be a "central air conditioner" was Gu Yun.

"Sure! I'm fine with it!"

Gu Yun did not refuse.

It wasn't just because of his friendship with Wang Hailong.

The main reason is that a top-tier variety show like Tencent's has ample promotional resources, ensuring its exposure.

For someone like Gu Yun, whose career is on the rise, exposure is very important.

Another point is that Gu Yun also wants to see if he has the ability to become the core of an S-level variety show.

If he can truly leverage his status as the global ambassador for [Da Feng] and Armani next year, he can rise to the top tier!

Being the core of an S-level variety show also proves its commercial value is genuine and undeniable.

"Then it's settled. After this episode is filmed, I'll have my team contact your agent."

"Can."

The two chatted briefly and settled the matter.

Around six or seven in the evening, the other guests also arrived.

"Hahaha, who is this? How can someone be so handsome!"

Upon seeing Gu Yun, Shen Teng began to feign excitement from afar: "Oh, it's Little Gu! Wow, so handsome! He's totally my type!"

Gu Yun struck a few poses to cooperate: "So, Brother Teng, how many stars do you want to see tonight?"

"Hahaha~"

Shen Teng put his arm around Gu Yun's shoulder: "You really understand me, brother. Without you, playing King of Glory is no fun at all."

"Tsk tsk tsk, look at that~"

While grilling skewers, Jia Bing joked, "With Xiao Gu here, Teng Ge is different, isn't he? This guy is both hugging and asking for points."

"Chengcheng, Anyu, Xiaobai, Xiaohu, and me, when we arrived, Teng-ge wasn't like this at all~"

"Yeah, Teng-ge, your favoritism is a bit too obvious."

Wang Anyu leaned closer, his face close to hers.

"Because Xiao Gu is handsome! He looks so much like me when I was young. Look at those captivating eyes, that model-like face—he's just so strikingly handsome!"

As Shen Teng spoke, he poked An Yu's forehead: "Hey, An Yu, you insisted on asking, and you even came up to ask. Now that you've heard the answer, are you feeling really upset?"

"You keep saying you're the most handsome art exam candidate, but I didn't mention that earlier mainly because I didn't want to embarrass you, An Yu."

"what!"

Wang Anyu clutched his chest, the pain was excruciating, and gave a bitter smile: "Brother Teng, I haven't mentioned that title for a long time."

"But Teng-ge still hasn't let you off the hook, has he~"

Hu Xianxu added a comment from the side.

However, Hu Xianxu's attack was not over yet.

"An Yu, hurry up, Xiao Gu is here today, everyone's here, you can tell them what's going on."

Hu Xianxu grabbed Wang Anyu's hand: "Tell everyone properly why you didn't mention the title of 'most handsome art student'?"

Xiao Wang
