Chapter 543 - Like They’re Playing Around on the Hot Searches
Chapter 543: Like They’re Playing Around on the Hot Searches
Amid everyone’s discussion, the interpreter arrived.
The number of words allowed on the bullet screen was limited, so when that person posted one sentence, it would usually be drowned by other people’s bullet screen comments.
After the person translated, he said:
“—I’ve already put the translation on Weibo. Everyone, go take a look!”
None of them knew that this Weibo post was now trending too after many people had seen it.
In just a short while, as #Xiao Fei Solo Learn# was still trending, #Xia Yixi Sign Language# and #Zhou Zhou settling in the capital# directly flew up to the top five trending topics!
In the production team.
The directors looked at each other. “What kind of big shot came to our show?”
Why did it now seem like they were playing around on the trending topics!
Ever since their program was broadcasted, it had not been very popular. The occasional spot on the hot searches was bought by the production team themselves. Naturally, most of the hot searches were related to Cen Bai.
However, the production team did not dare to use this person’s popularity to go overboard. Therefore, even with Cen Bai, the number of times he appeared on the trending list could be counted on one hand.
Now, within a day and half an hour, the production team had created three trending topics!
The director gulped. “This Xue Xi is totally a trending topic generator! It’s such a pity that she didn’t become an actress!”
The assistant director was scrolling through the comments below the trending searches. “Everyone is saying that it’s a pity that Xue Xi didn’t continue playing eSports. Now you’re saying such a thing… But she’s doing scientific research. Why should she stop focusing on scientific research to play eSports and join the entertainment industry?!”
Everyone respected intellectuals.
At that moment, the director swallowed his saliva. “What a pity. Look at the face shape of the person in front of the camera. It’s exactly the configuration of a movie queen. Why doesn’t she come to film movies? What a pity!”
…
When the people on the bullet screen saw the translated content, they all fell silent. Meanwhile, the fans in Qin Shuang’s live-stream exploded.
‘Damn, damn, damn! What did I see?’
“Xia Yiyi’s master is Zhou Zhou, right? Master Zhou Zhou wants to visit Sister Xi personally? And he wrote a song for Sister Xi to judge? Did I read it wrongly?”
“—You didn’t see it wrongly! We really became fans of an immortal!”
“Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, face smacking! Just now, someone was saying things like why did Zhou Zhou not accept Sister Xi as his disciple. From the looks of it now, Sister Xi is at least on the same level as Zhou Zhou!!”
‘Hahahahahaha, I’m dying of laughter! Master Zhou Zhou, do you know that your disciple told the entire country through a show that you’re going to settle down at the capital?’
“—Hahahahaha, these two people are too cute!”
In the production team.
Xue Xi did not respond but said calmly, “Let’s continue with the competition.”
Xia Yiyi hurriedly lifted her hands and gestured, and Xia Yiyi’s assistant started to explain to everyone, “Sister Xi’s piano skills are absolutely unquestionable. Even my master admires Sister Xi very much. My master really wants to practice more with Sister Xi, but unfortunately, Sister Xi doesn’t have the time. However, I still want to listen to Sister Xi play. It’s been too long since I’ve seen her playing.”
Zhan Busi: “??”
Xu Xinyao: “???”
Zhan Busi had been in a daze since just now. He finally came back to his senses. “Xia, you just said that the person Master Zhou wants to visit is…?”
Xia Yiyi pointed at Xue Xi again.
The interpreter said, “Yes, it’s Sister Xi.”
Zhan Busi: “!!!”
He looked at Xue Xi in shock and disbelief.
Xue Xi ignored his and Xu Xinyao’s stunned gazes and walked toward the piano. She took a look at the score and started playing the piano smoothly.
Xue Xi’s playing was very skillful. As she played, she left a lasting impression.
Although it lacked emotional investment, masters on the level of Zhan Busi and Xia Yiyi could not tell the difference.
The ordinary people on the bullet screen couldn’t tell the difference either.
Everyone felt that only such words could describe it:
“—Nice!”
“—It was too good!”
“Ah ah ah, Sister Xi looks so beautiful when she plays the piano!”
“—She really knew how to play the piano! Really!! And was this the first time she played this song? It was too smooth! There was no mistake at all!”
…
The bullet screen was filled with different levels of rainbow farts[1].
After Xue Xi finished playing the piano, she stood up. Xia Yiyi clapped hard and gave her a thumbs up.
Xue Xi smiled and spoke to her in sign language. “We still have to clear other challenges. I’ll look for you after the program is over.”
Xia Yiyi nodded instantly, obedient and sensible.
…
The piano segment ended and the four of them left the room again.
At this moment, Xu Xinyao was already dizzy and did not know what to do. She looked at Xue Xi in shock and saw that Xue Xi had come to the fourth room: weightlifting.
Weightlifting…
Weightlifting!
Xu Xinyao’s eyes lit up.
She looked at Zhan Busi.
Westerners like Zhan Busi had strong physiques.
When she looked at Xue Xi and Qin Shuang again, Xu Xinyao knew that as a girl and someone who was going on a show, they did not eat much to maintain their figure.
They were strong enough to perform, but in terms of real strength, men naturally had the advantage.
Hence, when she saw that Xue Xi and Qin Shuang did not even look at the labels on the door before pushing the door open, Xu Xinyao also walked over. “Zhan Busi, let’s lift weights!”
When the four of them walked in, they saw a weightlifting machine that they often saw in the gym. It was basically sitting there with the weights in its bars.
The production team staff said, “This machine is very simple. Sit at this position, then hold this place and pull it up forcefully. Go down, then pull it up again. Go down. You can do three rounds. Just use the fifth metal piece.”
Xue Xi followed his instructions and sat on the machine.
This time, the staff was a fitness trainer to prevent these people from hurting themselves.
He said to Xue Xi, “Don’t use too much strength. Slowly, let the muscles on your arm feel the strength. If you pull at it immediately, it will easily hurt…”
Before he could finish, the coach was stunned.
Xue Xi held the spot she wanted to hold and lifted it gently. She then pulled it up and went down again. After repeating it three times, she looked up and asked the staff, “Is that fine?”
Coach: “???”
Could it be that he had forgotten to place the iron weight plates? Otherwise, how could it be so easy!
With this thought in mind, the coach looked over to where the iron weight plates were placed—
The iron plates numbered ten pieces in total. Each piece represented a certain weight. When people came to weightlift, they would start from the lightest to the heaviest to prevent injuries.
Typically, they would first place a single iron piece, then pull it up, and then place a second piece. The program team requested that only up to five pieces could be pulled up, and that would be considered as a pass. After all, this was already very difficult. It was very difficult for ordinary people to achieve this.
The program team had set up this environment to tell these geniuses not to just focus on their studies and forget the importance of their bodies.
But now…
