“I don’t deserve it…” Sun Daqiang replied, feeling quite timid.
“Daqiang Ge, do you trust me?” Su Yu ignored his words, his gaze fixed on Sun Daqiang.
“Of course I trust you! But I think…”
“There are no ‘buts.’ It’s not about what you think, it’s about what I think—and I think you can do it! Alright, it’s settled. For the next while, I’ll have the company enroll you in an acting training class. You’ll intensively brush up on your acting, and then you’ll go straight onto the stage for me!”
Su Yu waved his hand dismissively, powerfully cutting off Sun Daqiang’s attempts to refuse.
At that moment, Sun Daqiang was truly dumbfounded, but his heart was incredibly excited, even his body trembled slightly.
If someone said he didn’t like the role of Guo Jing? He wouldn’t believe it even if he was beaten to death.
And if he really had the chance to portray such a classic character, Sun Daqiang felt his entire life would be worth it!
Of course, his biggest concern was actually that he was a complete novice at acting, afraid that his status as a novice with connections would ultimately ruin such a seemingly destined-to-be-hit divine drama.
However, Su Yu’s unreasonable “It’s not about what you think, it’s about what I think” truly gave Sun Daqiang a feeling of being valued and important from the bottom of his heart.
After all, who was Su Yu? A songwriter who dominated the music scene, a grandmaster martial arts novelist who shook the literary world!
Could his judgment be wrong? Of course not!
He must possess some kind of potential that he himself hadn’t discovered, but Su Yu had seen it!
At this moment, Sun Daqiang could only think this way and comfort himself.
After breakfast, the two went to a nearby mall. Su Yu was actually going to pick out a gift for Han Jiangxue.
Last time when Han Jiangxue went to shoot a commercial, she brought him back a men’s wristwatch, so this time he had to return the favor, didn’t he?
Fortunately, almost no one recognized Su Yu yet, which made this shopping trip unusually smooth.
If Han Jiangxue were to go shopping, even with the celebrity’s ‘three-piece set’ (mask, hat, sunglasses), she would probably still be recognized.
It was already past four in the afternoon when the two grown men emerged from the mall, showing how much effort Su Yu put into picking the gift.
Afterward, the two returned to the hotel to change and headed straight for Jinling TV’s live broadcast studio.
Sun Daqiang parked the rented car in the TV station’s underground parking lot, where many people were already waiting.
And the one who came to greet Su Yu, this “Wu Anjun,” was a cute young girl with her hair tied in a bun.
“Hello, Wu Anjun Teacher, I’m Xiaomi, your agent for the duration of the variety show!” Xiaomi jogged over after seeing Su Yu, who was wearing an evil ghost mask and ancient attire.
Although these agents didn’t know the true identities of the contestants, they had all seen the contestants’ photos beforehand.
Moreover, Su Yu’s attire was too unique; it would be impossible for Xiaomi to mistake him, right?
Su Yu activated the voice changer that Qian Jin had installed in his mask before nodding to Xiaomi: “Hello, I am Wu Anjun.”
Seeing the other contestants and their agents chatting and laughing, building rapport with each other.
Then looking at the evil ghost-masked Wu Anjun in front of her, Xiaomi sighed inwardly.
“Wu Anjun Teacher, I’ll take you to your exclusive lounge! The live broadcast will start a bit later, so let’s not stand here.”
After finding a topic, Xiaomi took Su Yu in the elevator directly to the singers’ lounge.
Sun Daqiang, on the other hand, didn’t go anywhere, sitting in the car and rereading “legend of the condor heroes.”
As time passed, when 8:30 PM arrived, the sound of a broadcast came from the singers’ individual lounges.
“The first live broadcast of ‘Who is the Singer’ officially begins. Please, the seven masked contestants, come to the announcement area to draw your performance order for this round!”
At this time, at Han Jiangxue’s home, the family of three was watching the live broadcast of “Who is the Singer.”
Because “The King of Singers” had ended, if they didn’t watch something, they would always feel like something was missing.
Fortunately, now there was “Who is the Singer” to take its place, so not only Han Jiangxue’s family, but many viewers and netizens also focused their attention on this variety show.
Actually, what Su Yu and the others didn’t know was that the live broadcast had already started three minutes earlier, and those three minutes were spent showing the masked singers in their respective lounges.
The seven initial singers, each with a completely different costume, truly made it impossible for people to guess who the singer behind the mask or headpiece was.
However, for countless viewers, among the seven, the most captivating was undoubtedly Su Yu, this “Wu Anjun.”
After all, others were either a majestic lion, a cute little white rabbit, or a sparkling little goldfish, and so on.
Only this Wu Anjun actually came out wearing an evil ghost mask!
And while the singers and agents in the other six lounges were chatting happily, only Wu Anjun’s lounge was completely silent, to the point of extreme awkwardness.
Viewers truly wanted to know who this aloof singer was!
And Han Jiangxue, in front of the television, had a strangely familiar feeling the moment she saw Wu Anjun.
However, this feeling seemed somewhat unreal, making it difficult for her to grasp the key.
But Han Jiangxue believed that if the person was someone she knew, once they started singing, she would definitely be confident in recognizing the owner of the voice!
After the broadcast, the seven singers, led by their respective agents, arrived at the common area.
The reason each singer was provided with an agent was actually to facilitate their movement.
After all, some singers were entirely encased in mascot costumes, and it would be truly difficult for them to walk without someone assisting them.
While it might look comical and create good show effects, if any accident truly occurred, the production team would be held responsible.
And our “Wu Anjun” naturally didn’t need Xiaomi, his agent, to support him; their group was also the first to arrive at the common area.
At this time, General Director Qian Jin was already waiting there. Once all the singers had entered, he didn’t engage in much small talk but directly spoke to move the process along.
“Singers or agents, please come up to draw the performance order for this round. The contestant who draws ball number one will go directly on stage, and the other contestants can wait in their lounges.”
After all, it was a live broadcast; if it dragged on, the audience wouldn’t enjoy it!
“You go draw!” Su Yu said, actually giving Xiaomi, this newcomer, an opportunity.
After all, drawing lots meant camera time.
Xiaomi’s heart filled with joy. After nodding, she was the first to draw a pink fluffy ball, and on this fluffy ball was clearly written a huge number “1”!
“Oh my god! This Xiaomi is too unlucky, isn’t she? She just got Wu Anjun to draw ball number one right off the bat!”
“Hahaha, look at Xiaomi’s expression, she’s about to cry. I’m sure she’s not acting, she’s genuinely panicked!”
“Have you read the rules? If a contestant is eliminated, the agent is also eliminated. How could she, a newcomer, not be scared?”
“Am I the only one happy that Wu Anjun is performing first? After all, among everyone, his costume is the coolest!”
