Debuted right after graduating from high school

the next day.

Filming for "A Bite of China" has officially begun.

The director then told everyone that there would be a mystery guest joining them for the recording today, and whoever could find the mystery guest first would become their partner.

Including Raymond Lam, who acted as the tour guide, a total of 7 members participated in the recording. They were divided into pairs, and one person would be left out. Today, they needed to team up to complete some pre-set games.

At first, everyone didn't take it seriously, thinking that some celebrity wanted to join in the fun and increase their exposure. However, for the sake of the show's effect, they still scattered around the pedestrian street, searching for the mystery guest.

at the same time.

Fan Wumian, wearing a mask, was buying tea at a tea shop.

Wearing a baseball cap, a white short-sleeved shirt, and black floral shorts—a common sight at the end of August when the weather was still hot—this outfit was completely unremarkable.

To avoid being easily spotted, the cameraman hasn't followed them yet. Taking a rare stroll through the old pedestrian street, Fan Wumian quite enjoyed the feeling of "being an ordinary person." He paid for half a jin of white tea, then bought starch sausage and fish balls, and sat on the roadside steps to eat.

The cameraman hid in the car filming him, while Fan Wumian watched Xu Zheng run past him without being noticed.

Celebrities are generally very strict about their body management, especially when they are on TV shows, they are very careful. I guess no one expected that the "mystery guest" would sit on the street eating starch sausage so casually, without any regard for image or prestige.

soon.

He also saw across the street, Grandpa Qian leisurely strolling around, examining wooden handicrafts, and tapping them on his shoulder with a small wooden hammer.

Immediately after, Raymond Lam and Wang Baoqiang passed by one after the other, mainly busy looking for people in the store, guessing that the guests were too conspicuous on the street and might be hiding in some store.

Wang Baoqiang looked around and suddenly said:
"Is this guest famous? I don't know him, and even if I saw him, I wouldn't recognize him, right? I haven't been in the industry for very long, and there are many people I haven't met. I might have already missed him."

The cameraman gasped, fearing he might say something inappropriate again, which would be quite interesting.

Fortunately, knowing that filming was in progress, Wang Baoqiang focused on finding the guests and quickly walked past Fan Wumian.

Upon seeing this, the show's director even planned ahead on how to create post-production special effects, thinking that adding the text "Unemployment +1", "Unemployment +2", and "Unemployment +3" would make the visuals quite interesting.

Unlike these roughnecks, Baby Yang is much more meticulous. She is still young, with long, slightly wavy brown hair draped over her shoulders. She has a small face and a slender figure, and she attracts a lot of attention when she walks down the street.

As Baby Yang walked across the street, she immediately noticed something was amiss and exclaimed in surprise:
"Does Fei Le have pink striped Yeezy shoes? He seems a bit odd; he deliberately covered his face with a paper bowl when he saw me pass by. Could he be the mystery guest?"

Fan Wumian really wanted to team up with Uncle Qian so they could talk about the investment and construction of the horse farm resort. When he saw Baby Yang passing by, he deliberately blocked her way and tilted his head back to drink the fish ball soup in his bowl.

However, after waiting for several seconds, when he glanced to the side, he discovered that Baby Yang had not left, but had instead come up in front of him.

Seeing that he was about to be discovered, Fan Wumian got up to leave. This behavior of ignoring the celebrities standing in front of him only made Baby Yang more certain that he had something going on. She subconsciously waved to her teammate Wu Jiani and said in a surprised tone:
"Gani, come quick! I think I've spotted a mystery guest!"

Wu Jiani had little presence before, until she latched onto Fan Wumian's coattails at the Spring Festival Gala rehearsal and successfully joined the girl group. Only then did she truly become popular as an idol artist and gain the support and love of many fans.

Upon hearing from Baby Yang that they had been found, Wu Jiani immediately ran over, not only blocking Fan Wumian's path but also shouting with delight:
"Ah! Boss!!!"

It's just a game; it's not like we're really running for our lives, recklessly crashing into Wu Jiani.

Fan Wumian stopped, raised his arm, shook his fingers, and laughed:

"Hi, long time no see. I thought Wang Baoqiang and his crew were about to find out about me."

When Baby Yang finally saw who the mystery guest was, she was extremely surprised. Then, remembering the rule that whoever found the guest first would be paired with them, she wanted to slap herself. She quickly and discreetly fixed her bangs, put on a smile, and greeted them:
"Boss, you're here! I really didn't expect it. At first, I only noticed that your shoes were a bit unusual before I realized who you were."

Fan Wumian looked down, seized the opportunity to advertise without hesitation, and said helplessly:

"This is supposed to be a new sample from Feller. You can even recognize it? The greatest hidden masters are the most dangerous places. I think I've hidden myself quite well. None of the people before me noticed me."

Wu Jiani and Baby Yang exchanged glances, both considering the same question—whose partner is Fan Wumian?
The other guests don't matter, but Fan Wumian is special. If I were to film an episode with him, it might leave a deep impression, which would be incredibly beneficial to my career.

However, out of consideration for their own image and the harmony of the team, neither of them dared to speak up easily and decided to leave the problem to the production team to solve.

Usually busy trying to "treat everyone equally," Fan Wumian quickly realized something was wrong. After a few casual words, she took the initiative to ask the production team, saying:
"Baby Yang found me first, and Wu Jiani recognized me first, so who should I partner with today?"

The show's director also felt that this was a bit tricky and had not considered similar situations in advance.

Not daring to pass the buck to Fan Wumian again, the director paused for two or three seconds, then had a sudden inspiration and said:

"To be fair, let's have another match. Whoever finds our lost tour guide Lin Feng first wins. What do you all think?"

Fan Wumian just smiled. Baby Yang and Wu Jiani also felt that this was the best way to handle it. After the director yelled "Action!", the two immediately went to find Lin Feng separately.

Two or three minutes later.

Officer Xing, returning empty-handed, strolled back and immediately spotted Fan Wumian. His expression became exaggerated as he cupped his hands in greeting:
"Oh dear! Mr. Fan, it's an honor to have you here. Why didn't you tell me beforehand?"

Fan Wumian reached out and replied:

“Brother Min, I’m not here to visit the set. I’m the mystery guest, and I’ve already been identified.”

Fan Min said regretfully:
"A windfall, just slipped through my fingers like that? I should have known better than to waste my time there. I even bought a serving of crab roe soup dumplings."

The director immediately reminded him:

"You can't spend your own money. The cost of these crab roe soup dumplings will be deducted from your budget later."

Having been in the industry for many years, she's long been a shrewd and experienced person, Fan Min immediately added:

"I'm not eating it myself, it's a gift for President Fan. You try to confiscate it if you dare, I really have connections."

After saying that, he patted Fan Wumian on the shoulder, clearly taking advantage of Fan's power.

The director, accepting the role, said with a hint of helplessness, "That's fine then. We can only make an exception this once, okay, Mr. Fan?"

Fan Wumian was both amused and exasperated.
"I wish I hadn't come. You're all too kind. Just treat me like a regular guest."

soon.

The members reunited, and Raymond Lam was found by Baby Yang first. It's no wonder he became a top-tier celebrity; he's incredibly lucky in his career and also very intelligent.

Wu Jiani was searching on foot, but Baby Yang borrowed an electric scooter and asked an older woman to give her a ride to get ahead. On the way, the older woman praised her, saying, "You're really pretty," and wanted to introduce her son to Baby Yang.

After the partners were divided into groups, they each drew lots to select their funding for the day's task.

Fan Wumian didn't cheat; he won the highest prize of 200 yuan by luck. Baby Yang didn't fare badly either, taking 100 yuan.

According to the program's rules, groups that fail to find the ingredients will ultimately have to watch others eat Buddha Jumps Over the Wall.

After finishing the game, they were assigned their tasks for the day. Xu Zheng and Lin Feng went to prepare ham, pig's trotters, seasonings, etc., while Wang Baoqiang and Uncle Qian were in charge of vegetables, chicken, duck, and dried scallops.

Baby Yang and Fan Wumian, on the other hand, need to go out to sea to fish and exchange the equivalent value of their catch for seafood such as abalone, sea cucumber, and cuttlefish.

Fishing at sea was exactly what Fan Wumian liked, but today the sea was a bit rough, and after two nets, he only caught some small, worthless fish and shrimp.

Exhausted and drenched in sweat, and smelling strongly of fish, Fan Wumian deliberately remarked, to enhance the contrast in the program:
"Although I told you not to treat me like your boss, this is really taking me too lightly. At least arrange a bigger fishing boat. Master Li said this is the smallest one in their fleet. Look at Baby Yang, she was a good girl group idol, look how different she is now. After the show airs, the advertisers who want her to endorse their products will probably go crazy."

Wearing arm sleeves and a rubber jumpsuit, with her hair disheveled, Baby Yang even showed off the white octopus tightly wrapped around her hand to prove how miserable she really was. (End of Chapter)
