Huayu: Starting from the top talent show

Chapter 515 Was this a fake act turned real? (Ownership chapters fulfilled)

The first half, when her physical abilities were at their strongest, was given to Xiao Ye, who was addicted to playing badly, allowing her to enjoy her favorite train bento.

The second half, which lasted the longest, was given to Aibao, who needed the most companionship, allowing her to successfully play the entire match despite cramping up.

After defeating the two fiercely determined heroines one after another, Shen Juan, along with Zhou Ye who was exhausted and could barely keep her eyes open, landed smoothly in Changsha on the afternoon of the 19th on a private jet, and participated in the recording of Hunan TV's flagship indoor variety show "Happy Camp" again after a long absence.

First, they met up with Sister Tian, ​​who had come all the way from Beijing, at the airport. After having lunch at a restaurant outside, they took a car to the Toilet Building, only to find that Teacher He, along with the hosts of the Happy Family and several senior leaders from Hunan TV, were already waiting for them in the lobby on the first floor.

"Oh my! My Juan, my Tian, ​​and our lovely Xiao Ye, you've finally arrived! It's been so long!"

As the only person present who maintained close contact with Shen Juan, Teacher He unsurprisingly became the leader of the team, leading the group forward to greet Shen Juan and the others.

"Teacher He, it's been a long time."

Shen Juan's answers were always indifferent.

But this does not mean that his relationship with He Jiong is ordinary.

Throughout the entire Mushroom House, there was only one person he didn't get along with.

Huang Lei indicated that it was highly unlikely to be me.

"Long time no see, Teacher He!"

As the recipient of the care and attention extended to Teacher He, Xiao Ye behaved very politely, even bowing to him when shaking hands.

Of course, she was genuinely grateful to He Jiong.

For no other reason than that he often took care of Juan Juan in the show, which prevented Juan Juan from consuming many strange and toxic substances.

For her, the criteria for judging a good person is very simple.

Anyone who is kind to Juanjuan is a good person!

He Jiong is an exceptionally good person!
As for yourself?

I had so much fun with Juanjuan last night.
There is no one in this world better than me!

"Jiongjiong, you seem to have gained weight."

"I used to be so thin, gaining weight is a good thing, haha!"

Sister Tian gave He Jiong a light hug with a happy smile.

Everyone else respectfully called him "Teacher," but she called him "Jiongjiong" in a friendly and endearing way.

Even Huang Lei, who loves to conduct obedience tests for everyone in the Mushroom House, is sometimes called "Lei Lei" by her.

The most ridiculous thing is that Lei Zi doesn't dare to get angry.

He suspected that this was a trap set by Shen Juan, and he was worried that Shen Juan would find an excuse to lash out and take Tian Jie into a doubles fight.

It can only be said that with the joint help and care of Shen Juan and Teacher He, Sister Tian's status in the entertainment industry has been enhanced to an epic degree.

No one, at least among the actresses born in 95, can hold more sway over her than her seniors like He Jiong and Huang Lei.

However, there are some among the 00s generation who can rival her.

For example, Liu Haocun, who was demoted from a 95-generation actress to a 00-generation actress, is someone who dares to affectionately call the national advisor "Yi Mou".

"Oh right, Juanjuan, have you guys had lunch yet? If not, we'll order food and have it delivered to you right now."

"No need, we've already eaten out. It's that private restaurant you recommended to me last time, Teacher He."

"Oh? How does it taste? Isn't it pretty good?"

"It's definitely great! Xiaoye said she really likes it!"

"I knew my choice would suit your tastes!"

"Wait a minute, why aren't you paying attention to my feelings?"

"Xiaotian, your feelings are not important."

"what?"

"Anyway, you'll eat whatever Juanjuan eats."

"Hey! Am I really that much of a devoted husband?"

"Husband and wife in perfect harmony? They've already gotten into the swing of things so quickly?"

"You dare use that word?"

"Why wouldn't I dare use it? I'm just telling the truth!"

The group walked and chatted, their conversation filled with laughter.

About three minutes later
Shen Juan was led into the private dressing room that Hunan TV had specially prepared for them to begin the preparations for the official recording, which was simply to familiarize himself with and confirm his makeup, hair and script. Not long after, the other guests who had been allowed to enter the show with Shen Juan's permission also came to knock on the door to visit.

Du Hua, Wang Yibo, and Han Geng.

Huang Minghao, Zhu Zhengting, Wu Xuanyi, and Meng Meiqi.

The company boss, the top male star, the former top male star, and several of the most popular and successful idols under the company all came!

In order to share the stage with Shen Juan, they practically put aside all their work. Le Hua's move can definitely be described as a full-scale attack!
Then the second wave of people followed closely behind.
Dashataran, Lana, Zheng Naixin, and Shan Yichun.

To briefly explain the reasons for choosing these four people to appear on the show:

Dasha Talan gained a lot of fans after getting involved in the Chinese entertainment industry, so Starlink began to consciously allocate more resources to her.

Moreover, the authorities also value her foreign status, believing that her presence can effectively boost national self-confidence.

Therefore, given the combined effect of multiple factors, it's not impossible that she might end up as a pretty but ultimately unremarkable variety show personality.

Lana is much the same, and since Produce Camp ended not long ago, the popularity she accumulated has been preserved to a certain extent.

Appearing on shows at this time to maintain exposure can help retain fans who are not determined enough and are about to leave the fandom.

Shan Yichun just finished the audition for The Voice of China a few days ago, so she can take advantage of this Happy Camp opportunity to do some marketing.

As for Zheng Naixin?
Let's just give her a chance.

If she can do her job well, then Shen Juan will not keep her on the sidelines until the contract ends.

Finally, let's include Shen Juantian, Xiao Ye, and the other two.

There are 14 people in total, all of whom are from Starlink and Lehua.

Why were there so many participants this time?
This is because Happy Camp recently launched a special project called "Stand Firm! Friends", which aims to inject fresh blood into Happy Camp through comprehensive training and evaluation of variety show skills, and at the same time deliver more young talents to the variety show field. Each episode is a team battle between companies.

For example, major companies such as Jiaxing, Happy Twist, Hesong, Wajijiwa, and Emperor Entertainment all sent their new talents over.

Simply put, it's a mentorship model where established celebrities act as promoters, while less popular celebrities act as "laughing contestants."

Lehua also wanted to ride on the coattails of Shen Juan, the company's former top star, because no one in the entire Chinese entertainment industry could refuse Shen Juan!
Any variety show he participates in will garner extremely high viewership and buzz overseas. This means that if you can appear on the same stage as Shen Juan, you will definitely gain a huge boost in international fame. For example, Sister Tian gained nearly five million Instagram followers this year thanks to "Back to Field 4"!

So there's not much to say.

Shen Juan immediately chose Le Hua.

Consider it a perk for my former employer.

After all, they parted ways amicably back then.

(This is Xiaoye's OOTD for this episode of Happy Camp)

3pm.

All the invited audience members have arrived and the seats are full.

With everything ready, the recording of the program officially began.

The five hosts of the Happy Family, led by He Jiong, made a lively entrance amidst cheerful singing and dancing.

"Welcome everyone to 'Happy Camp,' sponsored by vivo, every Saturday night. vivo S6 5G phone, Ultra HD Night."

"Hello everyone, we are the Happy Family!"

"Today is still our showdown for 'Stand Firm! Friends,' and today, we have two incredibly powerful companies joining us! So, we've completely upgraded and changed our stage design. We've even moved to a larger studio for this competition! This studio is over 60,000 square meters."

After a short, engaging introduction, just like previous recordings of Happy Camp, the six main guests from the two companies walked out from both sides of the stage as instructed by the staff. They made a dazzling entrance, accompanied by constantly changing ambient lights and screams from the audience.

"Let's give a warm round of applause and cheers to welcome Shen Juan, Tian Xiwei, and Zhou Ye from Starlink Entertainment!"

"Aaaaaaaaaaaa!!!"

As the three appeared on stage, the audience's pent-up enthusiasm was instantly ignited, with screams almost bursting through the dome!
Not only were the hosts of Happy Family unable to hide their excitement, but even Tian Xiwei and Zhou Ye, who were in the midst of it, couldn't help but feel a little scared. They secretly thought that they must be careful to disguise themselves when they went out on dates with Juanjuan in the future. They absolutely could not take off their masks. If they were recognized by passers-by in a busy area, they would be completely finished!
When Du Hua, Han Geng, and Wang Yibo from Lehua Entertainment appeared on stage, the volume of the music was noticeably lower.

But they didn't find it particularly strange.

They wouldn't feel ashamed at all.

Especially Wang Yibo and Du Hua.

One of them had long been accustomed to being enveloped by Shen Juan's brilliance, and the other had long been accustomed to being carried by Shen Juan.

After all, losing to Shen Juan is perfectly normal.

Just as the story of the Three Heroes fighting Lü Bu praises the courage and martial arts of Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei, rather than Lü Bu fighting three against one, the Chinese entertainment industry has long regarded Shen Juan as an invincible, bug-level existence like Lü Bu. No matter how amazing his achievements are, they will not be surprised.

Because he is Shen Juan!
Shen Juan deserves to be awesome!
so.
what?
The combined sales of the two brothers from "Bo Jun Yi Xiao" endorsement can only match the record previously set by Shen Juan.

Holy crap! Really?!
Isn't it taking off?!
This is already a remarkable honor!
No, we must create a spreadsheet, issue a battle report, and announce it to the world!
Leo is my sun: [Breaking news! My brother successfully unlocked the "Half-Tired" achievement on [date] in [field] and [data record]! This is to inform everyone, and also to remind our rivals and those scumbags in the gutter: stop your snide remarks, see if your idol can even reach the "Half-Tired" threshold before you speak! I don't want to talk to people whose idols haven't even mastered the "Half-Tired" power anymore.]

After the audience had completely calmed down, quite some time had passed before Shen Juan was able to greet them properly: "Hi everyone! I'm Shen Juan. It's been a long time, and we meet again! I'm very happy today. Thank you all for your support. I will remember everything."

"I came to Happy Camp this time to promote my new movie 'The Matchmaker,' in which I play the male lead, Aze."

"Aaaaaaaaaa!!!"

As expected, another burst of screams erupted!
The director was absolutely ecstatic in the audience!
This episode is sure to get amazing ratings!
I wish I could see Shen Juan every day!
Looking at the excited, flushed faces of the group below the stage, Shen Juan smiled and then handed the microphone to Xiao Ye beside him.

Zhou Ye immediately flashed a sweet smile and said in an extremely gentle voice, "Hi everyone, I'm Zhou Ye, who plays the female lead Xiao You in 'The Matchmaker.' I hope everyone can come to the cinema on August 25th, Qixi Festival, to see my love story with Aze! You definitely won't be disappointed!"

The microphone was then passed to Sister Tian, ​​who flashed a smile even sweeter than Xiao Ye's: "Hello, hello! I'm Xiao Tian Tianxiwei! I play the female lead, Shen Nianwei, in the movie 'The Matchmaker'! I hope everyone can come and see my movie with Juanjuan! Thank you so much!"

After hearing Xiaotian's affected and pretentious self-introduction, both Shen Juan and He Jiong were on the verge of losing their composure.

He Jiong, in particular, couldn't help but laugh.

Xiao Ye says she's the female lead, and you say you are the female lead.

So, which of you two is the real female lead?
Xiao Ye said she hopes everyone will come to see Juan Juan and her love story. You said you hope everyone will come to see Juan Juan and your movie.

So whose movie is this?
Whose love story is it?
You both completely ignored each other's existence.

Is it necessary to be so veiled and confrontational?

Does this really prove the famous OST lyrics: "It's supposed to be a movie for three people, but I can never have a name"?

And there's Oda too!
Everyone has seen "Back to Field" before and browsed Weibo, so how could they be fooled by your sweet appearance?

Besides, it's just a simple introduction of a character's name, and you made such a fuss, pronouncing it word by word.
The way you're acting, you practically want everyone to know that this is a couple's name Shen Juan specially chose for you to express his love. So what?

So everyone knows that Shen Juan misses Tian Xiwei.

and then?
Don't they still have to honestly fight against the other fish fry in the pond to prove their status with blood?
I was wondering what privileges you got?

So listen to your uncle's advice.

The most important thing in competitive sports is to be pragmatic. Let's clarify the concepts first before talking about these abstract concepts.

Spiritual victory is absolutely unacceptable!
After a seemingly harmonious and joyful opening chat that was actually fraught with hidden tension and undercurrents, the Happy Family invited out the other guests for this episode, namely eight cheerful individuals from the two companies: Huang Minghao, Zhu Zhengting, Wu Xuanyi, Meng Meiqi, Dasha Taran, Lana, Zheng Naixin, and Shan Yichun.

It's basically all handsome men and beautiful women.

The audience cheered enthusiastically.

Next came the first game of the night.

"Today we've prepared a little prop for you. Today, our Sister Du Hua and Juan Juan, representing their respective company bosses, are going to have a debate to get the atmosphere and tension going in today's episode, okay?"

Are we really going to start a debate?

"Of course!"

"Can I say anything?"

"Anything is fine, as long as you're not afraid of hurting feelings."

"That's good!"

"Haha! What if after you finish playing this game, you go back and suddenly find that the other person has deleted you from their WeChat contacts?"

"No way! I've known Juanjuan for so long, I know he's not that kind of person!" Du Hua thought she knew Shen Juan very well.

"And what's the theme?"

"The topics are all related to our respective companies."

"Row!"

Shen Juan was already excited. This kind of game, where you can say the truth under the guise of joking, is the most fun!
Moreover, he did have some things he wanted to say to Boss Du Hua regarding the ideas and resources that Xiao Xiao obtained after returning to China.

So after the staff brought the props onto the stage, the two combatants made some preparations and then stood in front of the machine.

"Alright, let's get started!"

The putter was on Shen Juan's side, so Shen Juan took the initiative to attack, setting the tone for the match.

"Starlink is the best company in the Chinese entertainment industry for cultivating idols!"

The moment the words were spoken, the crowd erupted in uproar.

"Oh!!!"

"Is the atmosphere already incredibly tense from the very beginning?"

"How should Sister Du respond?"

Du Hua's surprised expression clearly showed that she hadn't expected Shen Juan to set such a high standard right from the start.

But she was, after all, a seasoned veteran with many years of experience, so after a moment's thought, she quickly launched a counterattack.

“But you were trained by Lehua.”

Seeing Du Hua push the putter towards him, Shen Juan smiled and immediately responded, "But I didn't debut as an idol."

"That's because you chose to withdraw from the competition yourself, and the show where you won the championship by rapping was recommended to you by Yuehua."

"I can get the qualification by registering online myself."

"But you have to admit that without Lehua's support in terms of public opinion, you wouldn't have been able to win that championship so easily."

“I think that even if I had participated in that talent show next door after I returned to China, I could have easily won the championship.”

He Jiong keenly sensed that this statement contained a lot of information, and estimated that Mao Buyi would also be trending on social media.

"You mean you think Wajijiwa is better than Lehua?" Because participating in the show next door guarantees a contract with Wajijiwa.

"Anyway, nothing is as good as Starlink."

Du Hua was actually a little angry, but she didn't dare to show it because she had no confidence to confront Shen Juan.

Shen Juan simply smiled.

A certain illegal individual once said...
You have to play games with a smile.

So the smile on his face never stopped.

As for the others on stage, apart from Sister Tian who was eager to try, they were completely stunned and speechless.

Are these things something that can be said?
Are they even playing a game?

Are we really not in court?

Could they really have a grudge against each other?

That's why Shen Juan chose Lehua as his rival among companies like Dong Shen Future, Hesong, and Emperor Entertainment.
Could it be that they were just waiting for this to happen, using the guise of playing games and joking around to carry out a bloody purge against their former boss?

That person is incredibly cunning.

After a moment of silence, Du Hua pushed the putter back in front of Shen Juan: "In what aspects do you think Starlink is superior to Le Hua?"

"In what aspects do you think Lehua is ahead of Starlink?" Shen Juan threw this difficult question back at him.

“I think Lehua’s talent scout is better than Starlink’s.” Du Hua finally revealed a confident and proud smile.

But Shen Juan was having a hard time keeping it up. It was true that Yuehua Talent Detective was incredibly skilled; they had unearthed a large number of promising talents in China and South Korea, such as Wang Yibo, Wu Xuanyi, Li Daoxian, and Zhang Hao.
But no matter how awesome it is, is it as awesome as my ability to open the third eye?

You might need some cheat codes to find someone.

And I've never turned it off!

However, he was too lazy to discuss this topic in depth.

After all, if the other side were to say something like, "You were discovered by our talent scouts," it could practically kill the game.

So he began to attack another weakness of Lehua, or rather, her long-standing pain point: "But Lehua seems to only know how to discover potential newcomers, and is not good at cultivating established artists. Many times, they reach their peak right after their debut, and then their careers decline as time goes on."

"I don't understand what it means to be bad at nurturing established artists."

“All the artists who were independently trained by Lehua eventually became popular in ways that were not on the track that Lehua originally set.”

Let's not even mention Han Geng; he wasn't trained by Le Hua.

Shen Juan became famous after jumping from the idol track.

Wang Yibo became famous after becoming an actor and starring in a BL (Boys' Love) adaptation.

"Aren't Huang Minghao, Zhu Zhengting, Wu Xuanyi, and Meng Meiqi?" Du Hua's eyes could pierce.

Shen Juan raised an eyebrow: "So can I assume that Yuehua benefited from the popularity of talent shows in the Chinese entertainment industry to achieve her success?"

"Isn't Starlink the same?"

“Many companies are reaping the benefits of talent shows, but Starlink won’t take it too seriously because Starlink’s core will always be me.” Shen Juan’s gaze casually swept over Wang Yibo behind Du Hua, a playful smile on his face: “So, is Wang Yibo the core of Lehua now? He’s not reaping the benefits of talent shows.”

Wang Yibo was terrified.

He was already trembling with fear, trying to minimize his presence to avoid getting caught in the crossfire, but he never expected that this would also drag him into it.

I just felt that Shen Juan truly lived up to his name.

He can't play at all in these high-level matches.

I am so far inferior to him.

"Lehua's core will always be me." Du Hua tried to replicate Shen Juan's answer to avoid this sensitive question.

But Shen Juan wouldn't let her have her way, and pressed on, "So those two years I spent at Lehua weren't Lehua's core members either?"

Du Hua was really struggling to cope now. "Well, of course you're a core member too. Our Lehua is using a dual-core system."

If she dares to say that Shen Juan is not the core, she will be cyberbullied by fans as soon as this episode airs.

It's not impossible that they could even be ganked offline!
After all, denying the contributions of meritorious officials from the previous dynasty and then discarding them after they've served their purpose is universally condemned, regardless of the country or era.

She didn't want to be targeted by Xiao Chun Juan.

Because you're being targeted, you're definitely not getting any good juice!

Jolin Bago and Chris are cautionary tales!

She has already lost this round of the game, or rather, this war in which she vented all the pent-up frustrations of the past.

Moreover, they lost miserably and suffered a complete defeat!
Any counterattack she could mount against Shen Juan was untenable.

Because her Yuehua was indeed the one who was carried away.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Sister Tian could no longer contain herself; the little devil inside her was already excitedly practicing military boxing.

Hahahaha! The battle was awesome!
Lies won't hurt, the truth is the sharpest knife!

The opposing team is almost broken through by Juanjuan, hahaha!
Seriously, that's the downside of the Chinese entertainment industry.

What's the point of a group of people peacefully practicing Tai Chi?
We need to fight this real, hard-fought battle!

What's the point of watching a bunch of millionaires and billionaires play house? What we onlookers enjoy is the ultimate in foul language!
No wonder this singer studied in the American entertainment industry!

My husband is awesome! He's so cool!
Juanjuan was in full swing today, I love it!

I'll definitely reward you properly tonight!

There’s more!
You all say I have a foul mouth and that I'm aggressive.
What about Juanjuan?

His aggression is by no means weak!
He just didn't show it on Weibo.

But that doesn't mean he won't insult people.

Anyway, I learned a lot of my insulting techniques from him! I'm a disciple of Wajuan, Wajuan is my Sensai!

Thinking so
She can't wait to see what netizens' reactions will be to the game segment after this episode airs!
What does it mean for a husband to lead and a wife to follow suit?

This is what they call a harmonious marriage!
What does it mean for a couple to look alike?
This is what they call a couple looking alike!

And it's the absolute top-tier kind!
This game is so much fun!

I want to play too! I want to go all out!

As for the opponent
Without thinking, Tian Xiwei looked at Zhou Ye beside her.

I choose you! Haki!

Let's continue our battle in Hokkaido, which was abruptly stopped before it was even finished, right here on the Happy Camp stage today!
