365 The Contestant Is Causing Trouble Before The Livestream?
Yang Tianzhen and Benson conducted a simple investigation on Zhu Bai under Luo Feng’s instructions.
The reason why she was fired by Morris was probably only known by Zhu Bai and the higher-ups of Morris who were involved at that time. The two of them did not find out anything. When they asked Zhu Bai, they said that she accidentally found out the secret of a certain higher-up and was fired because she was blacklisted.
Yang Tianzhen felt that there was nothing wrong with her answer. Moreover, Zhu Bai was a very talented person who could debut directly with her singing and dancing skills. Moreover, she had a personality and could easily produce the effects wanted.
Hence, a simple melodrama was over.
They began to make preparations in all aspects.
After sending Ai Tingya to the training camp, Luo Feng went to the venue he had rented previously.
For this variety show, Luo Feng had created a lot of power in the early stages. This also made many paparazzi come over.
The variety show venue had just been set up and the contestants had yet to officially move in. There were already many paparazzi waiting nearby, preparing to take some photos and post them online.
What surprised Luo Feng even more was that some of the fans that the contestants had accumulated when they were trainees had already begun to ask their idols to take pictures of their daily lives.
Luo Feng got someone to add guardrails and iron walls around the variety show venue. Not only could they avoid the leakage of materials, but they could also eliminate interference from the outside world and let the contestants prepare in peace.
Thinking that he had already upgraded the guardrail, Luo Feng decided to upgrade the contestant’s dormitory as well. According to Ai Tingya’s preferred style, he changed the cute style to high-level simplicity.
The supporting facilities had also been modified, such as daily stores, infirmaries, and so on…
As for the contestants, Yang Tianzhen arranged the final training before entering the venue mainly to announce the rules of the competition. For example, they could not bring their phones with them. They could not contact the outside world for two and a half months and had to contact their families. There were also reminders about some taboos regarding being on camera.
Most of the 80 contestants from the pre-selection came from Morris’ traveling trainees, and there were also some ordinary people who dreamed of becoming celebrities. Even though most of them more or less knew the common sense of being on camera, Yang Tianzhen still found someone to emphasize the rules just to be safe.
“As long as the camera is turned on, your lives will be exposed to the cameras, so you have to pay attention to your words and actions. You have to put away your usual bad habits,” Yang Tianzhen said with a straight face. “Remember, this is your closest chance to success! Take it!”
“Yes!” The girls in uniform answered in unison.
“Most of the contestants standing here have experienced some things and know that this opportunity is not easy to come by. I hope that you can perform well in the upgrade competition. Most importantly, you have to show your poise!” Yang Tianzhen raised her hands high.
Clap—
The contestants clapped hard, their faces filled with hope.
After experiencing so many hardships, they finally welcomed the day when they stood on the stage.
“Alright, we’ll be entering the venue tomorrow. Have a good rest tonight and rest your spirits,” Yang Tianzhen said.
This was the last day of the lecture. After that, it was up to the contestants to work hard.
Yang Tianzhen looked at this group of energetic trainees. They would be worth a lot of money soon, and they were still repeating their mechanical lives in Morris’s practice room. They didn’t know where the future was.
He had really done a good deed by following Luo Feng.
Like a proud rooster, Yang Tianzhen walked out of the conference room with her hands behind her back.
“Manager Yang!”
He had only taken two steps when a girl called out to Yang Tianzhen.
“Is there anything else?” Yang Tianzhen put on her most mature look and turned around to stare at the blushing girl.
“This, please help me pass it to the boss! Please pass it to the boss!” The girl lowered her voice and looked around mysteriously, as if she was afraid that others would know.
Yang Tianzhen was alarmed by his actions.
“The boss said that he doesn’t accept anything from the contestants!” Yang Tianzhen rejected him righteously.
Having been in the entertainment industry for a long time, his habitual thinking made him feel that there might not be anything good in the envelope. Moreover, Luo Feng rarely appeared in front of the contestants.
“It’s just a letter!” The girl stuffed it into Yang Tianzhen’s arms and whispered, “Please open it in a private place. There are private photos inside!”
Buzz—
The alarm bells were already ringing in Yang Tianzhen’s face. Wasn’t this the legendary… legendary hint!
He was about to refuse, but before he could react, the girl had already run away.
“That shouldn’t be the case, that shouldn’t be the case!” Yang Tianzhen took the envelope and spun it twice. “There shouldn’t be someone who wants to take a shortcut like this after the character screening!”
Luo Feng’s first requirement was that her character had to pass. Now that the list of contestants had been finalized, if the girl’s act of asking for unspoken rules was confirmed, it would be Yang Tianzhen’s work negligence!
This letter must not be handed to Luo Feng!
Yang Tianzhen wanted to throw it away, but she was afraid that the photos inside would be picked up by others.
After struggling with his thoughts, Yang Tianzhen finally decided to open the envelope and take a look. “I’m not prying into your privacy. I’m gathering evidence so that I can persuade you to repent and be a dignified person!”
Yang Tianzhen mentally prepared himself as if he was reciting scriptures. He hid in the deserted fire escape and slowly tore open the envelope.
A photo slipped out of the envelope and Yang Tianzhen hurriedly picked it up. When he flipped it over, he was dumbfounded—the photo was of a little girl with pigtails. She was about four or five years old and was standing at the entrance of the children’s park.
Yang Tianzhen was stunned. Why was it completely different from what he had imagined?
Looking at the contents of the letter, the notes in the watercolor pen were immature. Some of them were even replaced with pinyin. The crooked words were pieced together to form a thank-you letter.
“Thank you, Boss, for helping my sister so much. Thank you, Big Boss!” Yang Tianzhen subconsciously raised her voice and said the last sentence.
As expected, the thank-you letter came from the little girl in the photo.
“Manager Yang.”
A faint voice came from behind. Yang Tianzhen was shocked and hurriedly hid the open letter. He pretended to be calm, like he had done something wrong and was caught red-handed.
The girl who delivered the letter stood on the top step with her hands on her hips. “Didn’t I say it is to be given to the boss? Why did you read it yourself?”
“Uh… I am…” Yang Tianzhen wiped the sweat off his face.
It was just a child’s thank-you letter, but it made his thoughts seem complicated and he kept thinking in the wrong direction.
“I’m just… sorry, I’m just worried…” Yang Tianzhen stuttered. He didn’t even know how to explain.
“Seriously, you’re already an adult, yet you’re still secretly opening other people’s letters.” The girl took the letter back and complained, “I didn’t want to send it either, but if I didn’t, the little grandaunt would cry and howl.”
“It’s fine to send a thank-you letter, but why send a photo?” Yang Tianzhen changed the topic to ease the awkwardness.
“My sister said that she hopes that Boss can remember her face. When she grows up, he will also choose her to be a female celebrity.” The girl was very helpless, smiling as she spoke.
