I'm a web novelist, and you want me to work in the entertainment industry?

The live stream then cuts to the assembly hall.

Cheng Che sat in a chair, holding a microphone in one hand and a mobile phone in the other, with the phone's speaker pressed against the microphone.

He also thoughtfully pointed his phone screen at the camera, revealing the note on his phone—

Xu Anan

【Wow! There's a dog!】

[Hahahaha, isn't Da Hua desperate? "Random Thoughts" isn't even finished recording yet!]

[Actually, Che Ge is like a layered pancake, his schemes are too deep, one after another. It's reasonable to suspect that at least half of Che Ge's brain cells are allocated to having fun.]

【Dahua, why are you doing this to yourself? Why are you on the same show as Che-ge again?】

"??!!"

Liu Xianhua was certain that he had just heard Xu Anan's voice.

There was no time to think about why Xu Anan, who clearly didn't participate in this variety show, was being heard here.

He instinctively opened his mouth, ready to say something to make amends.

"Um, Nan Nan, actually, it's not that I don't want to save you," he explained repeatedly. "I have a reason for saying that."

"Yes! There's a reason!" Liu Xianhua said, suddenly gaining confidence.

"I chose to save Ziyi because a girl as outstanding as you, Wo Juede, must know how to swim, so I believe you can save yourself."

"Compared to you, I think Ziyi might need my help more, otherwise I would definitely choose you!"

After saying all this, Henry Lau looked as exhausted as if he had just gone through a battle.

Fortunately, he was quite satisfied with his performance—just now, he felt that his brain was even briefly operating faster than the speed of light.

But before he could even catch his breath, he heard a relatively clear female voice from above the passageway—

"Oh, so you mean I'm useless because I can't swim?"

In the assembly hall, Cheng Che silently took out his second phone—he had two phones, one was one he already owned, and the other was one given to him by the production team when he filmed "Wandering Diary".

He also placed the second phone next to the microphone.

The note displayed on the screen is:

Xia Ziyi

[Hahahaha, there's a second chance!]

[I can't stop laughing, Che-ge's move was truly on fire!]

[I'm at my wit's end. How can someone carry two phones in their pocket while recording a show, and both with SIM cards inserted!]

[That's how Che-ge is; you have no idea how many preparations he's made.]

[Dahua, don't come back to "Random Notes" anymore. Xiaotian belongs to Che-ge, and you've wiped out Xia-jie and Nan-jie's favorability ratings in one go, hahaha.]

"No, no!" Henry Lau panicked completely.

"What I mean is, just now, I, this..." Liu Xianhua ultimately lacked the silver tongue and fell silent.

"Okay, stop talking, I don't want to hear it," Xia Ziyi interrupted him angrily.

Henry Lau's face showed an expression even worse than crying. He raised his head in despair, as if he had lost all his strength.

A few minutes later, Liu Xianhua pushed open the door at the end of the corridor with heavy steps, walked into the assembly hall, and slumped into the chair next to Cheng Che.

If you look closely, you'll notice that his pupils are unfocused and his expression is blank, as if he's been gone for a while.

Cheng Che patted him on the shoulder sympathetically, taking it as "crocodile tears".

……

A few minutes later, the door in the passageway was pushed open again.

A man with silver-gray hair and black-rimmed glasses walked in.

He walked with a leisurely pace, and his whole demeanor exuded the air of a refined scholar.

"Wow, it's this kind of passageway again." Xue Zhiqian glanced around. "I bet you guys are going to create some awkward moments again, right?"

"Wow, I'm so excited!" His tone was one of sincere perfunctoriness.

As he entered the frame, the number of comments on the screen surged instantly.

[Old Xue! Long time no see!]

Why does Teacher Xue start nagging as soon as she walks in the door?

[Teacher Xue is like this, a total chatterbox. Believe it or not, even if no one is talking to him, he can still chatter on and on to himself.]

I'm already looking forward to seeing Teacher Xue and Brother Che meet...

As Cheng Che looked at the person on the screen, information about that person came to mind.

Teacher Xue Zhiqian is a household name in China. He is a renowned talent scout in the music industry who has helped students on numerous variety shows and is a teacher to many.

To be honest, Cheng Che and Xue Zhiqian had never met before, but they could probably be considered to have some connection.

Previously, Cheng Che posted a video of himself singing "Rice Fragrance" on Yin Fu, which was liked by Xue Zhiqian, who also followed him. Cheng Che followed back - this was the fifth account Cheng Che followed.

Oh, the third and fourth are Xia Ziyi and Xu Anan, respectively, and there are no Chinese websites for them.

The fact that the two followed each other on social media was discovered by netizens, leading many to wish that they would have the opportunity to record a show together in the future.

Now we've actually run into it.

Under the guidance of the production team, Henry Lau casually asked Xue Zhiqian a very ordinary question.

After answering, Xue Zhiqian pushed open the door and walked into the assembly hall.

"Teacher Xue, it's been a long time." Liu Xianhua stood up from his chair and went to greet him.

After more than ten minutes of recovery, he slowly emerged from the shadow of being tricked twice by Cheng Che.

"Oh, Da Hua's here too?" Xue Zhiqian pushed up her black-rimmed glasses and looked him up and down. "Long time no see."

"Long time no see." Henry Lau nodded.

He was about to say something more when he saw Xue Zhiqian's gaze pass over him and look behind him.

"Hello, Teacher Xue." Cheng Che walked over and greeted her.

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Xue Zhiqian's eyes suddenly light up.

"Bird, bird, bird, bird (Hello x5), you must be Cheng Che."

Xue Zhiqian walked straight past Liu Xianhua and rushed to Cheng Che.

"Oh, I'm finally meeting you in person." He said enthusiastically, extending his hand. "I've heard all the songs you've sung online, and every single one of them is very well written."

"Especially 'Rice Fragrance', wow, it's written so well, I love it so much."

"Teacher Xue, you flatter me." Cheng Che grasped his hand and said repeatedly.

"Sigh." Unexpectedly, Xue Zhiqian objected upon hearing this.

"This is absolutely not an exaggeration, it's all the truth. 'Rice Fragrance' is arguably one of the best songs I've heard in recent years."

Wow! Teacher Xue's evaluation is that high? Our I-Che is so proud!

[I feel that "Rice Fragrance" completely deserves this praise! And it seems that Teacher Xue really likes Che Ge!]

It would be strange if Lao Xue didn't like Cheng Che, a young man who is young, talented, and witty!

So, is it his youth, his talent, or his witty remarks that people like?

"I've admired you for a long time." Xue Zhiqian said with a very serious expression, shaking Cheng Che's hand up and down repeatedly.

"Not at all, it's me who admires you," Cheng Che quickly replied.

I admire you.

I admire you.

"I've admired you for a while now."

"I've admired you for a very long time."

"Oh, you're too kind. I've admired you for a long time."

"No, no, no, it's because I admire you..."
