You were asked to be on a dating variety show, but all the guests failed?

Chapter 163 Because the Truth is in Their Hands

Almost everyone present knew Lu Xiaoli's identity.

Zhao Mingtao told Lu Siyuan and Shu Yi her identity, and Han Fei, Nie Wenjin and Qi Qingyi also recognized her. To be honest, Xu Qingan was probably the only one who was not very clear, but nearly half of them conceded that Lu Xiaoli was the one he arranged to disgust people.

So no one told Xu Qing'an how this happened.

Where could he seek justice? He could only watch.

half an hour.

Zhao Mingtao, whose scalp was tingling from being stared at, smiled very reluctantly, coughed, and said:
"This, this casting thing is not my responsibility. I just took a look at it. What I say doesn't count."

He wanted to say, "Don't you know what kind of reputation Zhong Xiaoyun has on the Internet now? Which crew would dare to use him? Are they really going to die?" Even if the relationship was strong, even if Wushuang Films had no intention of releasing this drama from the beginning, they couldn't be so blatant!
But he couldn't say.

Zhao Mingtao could guess that if he said that Zhong Xiaoyun's public opinion was problematic, Lu Xiaoli, this crazy woman, would follow suit and reveal a lot of information. She is barefoot and is not afraid of those who wear shoes. Now that she is divorced and has revealed the news, and there are people backing her up, it is time for her to go crazy. He can't afford to offend her.

When Lu Xiaoli heard his words, she just nodded regretfully to indicate that she understood, and said nothing more.

I don’t know whether she was regretting that Zhong Xiaoyun lost his job, or regretting that she herself lost a good opportunity to expose the news.

After a moment of silence, Zhao Mingtao took the initiative to walk to Lu Xiaoli and pulled her away from the camera.

The pd wanted to move closer to follow the filming, but was frightened by Zhao Mingtao's vicious glare. He stopped and did not move forward. Only then did the latter retract his gaze.

Zhao Mingtao walked nearly ten meters to the side, took off the microphone on his body, and signaled Lu Xiaoli with his eyes to take it off temporarily, then he leaned close to her ear and whispered in a whisper:

"I know you came to this show because of me, and I also know that someone paid you to do it, and you can vent your anger, but I think this matter can be discussed."

"Lu Xiaoli, I'll give you five million after the show. If you save it, it will be enough for you to spend for ten years. You don't have to wait for Zhong Xiaoyun to give you money in the future. I just have one request - don't say things like you just said on the show, so that we can finish the recording peacefully, OK?"

Lu Xiaoli is a very gentle person. To put it bluntly, she is a softie.

In the past few years, Zhong Xiaoyun had been openly cheating on her and not coming home. Later, after she discovered his sexual orientation, he didn't even want to pretend. He didn't care about anything else except sending her money. If he had a bad temper, like a common Northeastern woman or a famous Tyrannosaurus Rex in the southwest, he would have fought with him a long time ago. However, Lu Xiaoli's final choice was to commit suicide. She was just one step away and was pulled back by someone.

This kind of soft-hearted personality has become what it is now, basically because he was pushed by others. As long as enough benefits are given and the attitude is a little better, wouldn't it be easy to control him?

As expected, Lu Xiaoli did not get angry as if she was insulted. She hesitated for a while and said:

“I need to get the money first.”

Zhao Mingtao was glad that she didn't have a problem with money, but he was also annoyed.

He took a deep breath:

"Everyone's cell phone has been taken away. I can't transfer it to you directly, nor can I contact someone outside to transfer it to you for me. Even if I transfer it to you, you don't have a cell phone to confirm it."

When he wanted to persuade her again, Lu Xiaoli glanced at the chest of his suit jacket.

There was a pen stuck there for showing off.

"Mr. Zhao, I heard that you rich people like to use checkbooks, and you always carry a pen with you. If that doesn't work, you can write me a check first. If you don't have a checkbook, you can ask the production team for a piece of paper to write an IOU."

"There has to be a basis for this. Otherwise, why should I believe you if you just say it without any evidence?"

Zhao Mingtao got stuck.

He did bring a checkbook, but that thing, like the pen on his suit, was just for show. With his spending level and daily business needs, he could easily handle it with credit cards and mobile phone payments, and he never thought about actually using it.

Even though he could have just said he didn't bring it, he still had to ask the production crew for paper to write an IOU... He really couldn't afford to lose face.

I never expected that pretending to be cool would make me look like an idiot.

Zhao Mingtao almost blushed, and for a moment he couldn't think of any other way or excuse. He seemed to have lost all his means and strength. In the end, he could only take out the checkbook from the lining of his coat, quickly wrote the amount and signed his name, then tore it off and slapped it into Lu Xiaoli's hand:

"Two million upfront, and I'll give you the balance after the show."

"Okay, huh?"

The last three words were squeezed out from between teeth.

Lu Xiaoli smiled and said with a very gentle expression. She carefully put the check into her small bag and smiled at Zhao Mingtao:

"Of course, I will keep my promise and not talk nonsense. I also hope that Mr. Zhao can keep his promise."

"Don't think you can take advantage of me after the show. After all, you know there are people backing me up, right?"

After saying that, she didn't look at Zhao Mingtao's face again, turned around and walked back to the team.

[No, I'm not kidding. What just happened? There's so much information that I can't comprehend it???]

[Haha, I was saying that the name Lu Xiaoli sounded familiar, and this female guest looked familiar too. I just heard about Zhong Xiaoyun, and I went to confirm that she was really Zhong Xiaoyun’s ex-wife who was deceived into marriage and subjected to domestic violence!]

[Even though Zhong Xiaoyun is like this, she is still helping him find work and scripts on the show. Don’t love him too much, sister…]

[??? Didn't you guys notice she was being sarcastic? Her tone just now was clearly sarcastic. Although I don't know what she was being sarcastic about, there must be something going on here!]

[Why is my focus different from yours... I only care about whether Wushuang Films is going to cooperate with Sichuan Southern TV to make a TV series? Wushuang has not been in the drama circle for many years and has been making movies. Is it finally coming out to save the audience's eyes? ]

[Haha, who cares? The movies Wushuang made in the past few years are indeed pretty good, but what are the movies he made in the past three years? Have you seen them all? They are all made by famous directors and big names. I heard that there are a few good scripts, but in the end some big names added scenes and changed them to something incomprehensible, so I just watched them for fun.]

[What the previous person said is true. Movies can add so much drama to the show. I don’t even dare to imagine how the script will be changed if it is a TV series.]

[Hasn't the male lead been confirmed to be Han Fei? He has a bad temper, but there doesn't seem to be any scandal related to changing the script. Even if there is, it has been said before that most of the scandal is caused by Lu Siyuan, and there is also Sichuan Southern TV station watching, so I don't think it should be a big problem. ]

[Laughed. What's the point of him being fine alone? Didn't you see that the marketing manager of Wushuang Films has started to select concubines? If Shu Yi is not open with him for resources, is it because of love? Song Mengran was a mistress for resources and got the role of the female lead. I can only say that Shu Yi has a promising future.]

[By the way, what did Lu Xiaoli and Zhao Mingtao say just now? The camera was too far away and the microphone was off. He seemed to have written something to Lu Xiaoli, but I couldn't see clearly. I was so anxious, who can help me? ]

【…】

There are all kinds of discussions in the barrage.

The public relations department of Wushuang Film and Television, Liang Chaojie of Huanxing Entertainment, Shu Yi's agent, and Zhong Xiaoyun and Song Mengran who had already gotten off the car were all squatting in the live broadcast room watching. When they saw these barrages, many of them felt dizzy, not knowing when this farce would end.

They can only pin their hopes on Zhao Mingtao now, hoping that Mr. Zhao can exert his usual level of manipulation of public opinion and try to minimize the influence of this program, so as not to involve the company or any troublesome things. Otherwise... then it's really fucking over.

at this time.

Han Fei's voice came from a distance:

"I found a pretty good shelter location, come here quickly!"

Everyone immediately perked up and quickened their pace to walk over there.

When they were near the shelter, the others had no problems, but Nie Wenjin was in some trouble.

The place Han Fei found was indeed good. It was a small cave on a slope. After entering, it could naturally shelter from the wind and rain. Although the space inside the cave was not as large as the one on Cangyun Mountain, it was still good. It was obvious that a natural shelter was always more reliable than the one they built themselves. At least after hiding in it, they didn't have to worry about it leaking.

The only problem was that the cave was on a slope, and Nie Wenjin was in a wheelchair. The road on the slope was very uneven, so it was basically impossible for her wheelchair to get up there.

Qi Qingyi was in a dilemma:
"Sister Wenjin, how about I call Han Fei down and ask him to help push you up."

Nie Wenjin pursed her lips and said neither yes nor no.

Xu Qingan, who was standing next to him, stuffed the fire axe into Qi Qingyi's arms and said cheerfully:
"What's the big deal? Why should he make such a trip? The three grown men at the foot of the mountain are not dead."

"Here, take this. The wheelchair is at the bottom of the mountain. It looks light. I'll carry her up!"

Zhao Mingtao and Lu Siyuan: …

The two dead men fell silent.

This idiot Xu Qing'an can really talk.

Nie Wenjin is not as ridiculously thin as Shu Yi, but she is also thin, otherwise she would not be able to withstand the test of the big screen camera. However, she is tall, about 1.7 meters, and has traces of gym training on her body. Her muscles are dense, and even if she weighs a little over 100 pounds, she is still thin, not to mention that Nie Wenjin has a large plaster cast on her foot.

If I were carrying her on my back on a flat road, it would be fine, but this is a mountain road, and it is a purely natural wild mountain road, with slopes and potholes everywhere. The difficulty of walking with a person on your back is exponentially higher than on flat ground.

No matter how much Zhao Mingtao and Lu Siyuan couldn't stand Xu Qing'an and wanted to prove themselves, they couldn't joke about such things.

Throwing Nie Wenjin down is a small matter, but embarrassing herself is a big matter!
So they just looked at the sky and the tree respectively, pretending to be dead.

Xu Qingan shouted up the mountain:
"Well, Han Fei, please clean up a clean place and I will carry Nie Wenjin up!"

Han Fei responded in the cave like singing a folk song:
"Hey, good!"

After shouting, Xu Qing'an squatted in front of Nie Wenjin's wheelchair, patted his shoulders, and slapped his muscles with his palms, making a dull and slightly crisp sound:

"Come on, Qi Qingyi, give her a hand and help her up."

Qi Qingyi hurriedly helped push Nie Wenjin onto his back.

Xu Qing'an carried Nie Wenjin on his back very easily, climbed up the slope in two or three steps, and then turned his back to Han Fei and said:
"Han Fei, I see that you have quite a lot of muscle strength. Can you take her over and put her away? I'll go down and get her wheelchair up."

Han Fei also easily took Nie Wenjin horizontally, bent down and placed her against the wall of the cave, and said:
"I think the wheelchair can wait. We need to go out to find building materials. It's a bit troublesome to move them manually. Why don't we use the wheelchair as a cart? Her wheelchair has electric power assist. The road is too bad. People can't use the electric power assist because they are afraid of falling. But we can't use it to transport things. What do you think?"

Along the way, they also realized that the island had not started serious infrastructure construction. Except for the road for the sightseeing bus, the other roads were very bad, so Nie Wenjin had never used the electric power function and could not activate the wheelchair's speeding skill.

Because of this, Xu Qing'an had no idea that her wheelchair was electric.

Now when he heard it for the first time, his eyes lit up:
"Okay, okay, okay, this is good!"

"Let's go. Tell the others that after we bring up all the luggage, Qi Qingyi will stay here to help her pack up the usable items, and then we will go look for materials."

"Although the cave is ready, we still need to find some leaves or something to cushion it. If conditions permit, we can also build a shed along the cave entrance. There is definitely not enough space for more than a dozen people to sleep in such a small place. We can't just lie in there and let PD and the others be exposed to the wind and rain outside."

Han Fei agreed with his idea, so he nodded and agreed.

Nie Wenjin leaned against the cave wall, listening to them talking and arranging things clearly: ...

No, you just arranged it like this, regardless of whether others agree or not???

She coughed lightly and said politely:
"Is it possible that you need to discuss this with others first? What if they don't agree to let the staff come in?"

Han Fei and Xu Qing'an looked at her at the same time, shocked.

Xu Qingan does not hide his straightforwardness:
"We went to cut trees and work hard to build a shed. What does it have to do with us whether they agree or not?"

Han Fei applauded:

"Brother Xu is right!"

Nie Wenjin: …

Nie Wenjin was very grateful that they had settled him down without saying a word, but now he had lost the strength to refute.

They are right.

Would the guests present be tied up enough to beat up these two people? Obviously not.

So whatever they say is right, because they have the truth.

What is truth?

The truth is the axe in Qi Qingyi's hand now.

If Han Fei said he needed an axe for a fight, she had no doubt that Qi Qingyi would hand him an axe wrench and cheer him on.

Therefore, there is no difference between the axe in Qi Qingyi's hand and in Han Fei's hand.

Nie Wenjin leaned against the wall helplessly and waved his hands:
