This top celebrity got drunk and acted crazy, and everyone in the Chinese entertainment industry bur

Putting aside the fact that the staff member in front of us is not a behind-the-scenes person and may not know where Lü Ming has been taken, even if they did know where Lü Ming is now, they would not violate the program's rules to reveal Lü Ming's location.

After all, if he were to casually reveal the positions of the hosts and guests participating in the program, not only would the production team definitely not let him off the hook, but making him resign would be a minor matter. If his actions caused any negative comments, he would likely be held accountable for other responsibilities.

"He!"

"I know, it's not far from here!"

However, what Chao Ge didn't expect was that after hearing his question, the staff member in front of him hardly hesitated and, like a simple 'newcomer,' directly told him Lü Ming's location.

"You know, next time someone asks you these questions, remember not to say anything carelessly!"

Deng Chao didn't expect him to say it so directly, and he knew he had done something wrong.

If Lu Ming's fans knew about this situation, they would definitely not let the staff member in front of them off, so Deng Chao quickly tried to smooth things over for the staff member.

Deng Chao knew perfectly well that his cameramen were still filming nearby. If he took responsibility for it at this moment, the impact on the staff member in front of him could be minimized.

You should know that the staff member in front of you might not be able to handle such a result, but for Deng Chao, it doesn't have much of an impact.

After all, Brother Chao is a top-tier celebrity in the entertainment industry, so he still has a certain status.

Moreover, Chao Ge and Lü Ming have a fairly good relationship. Everyone knows that Chao Ge wasn't targeting Lü Ming; he was just joking.

Just as Brother Chao was trying his best to help the staff member out of the predicament, the barrage in Brother Chao's live stream did not develop as he had imagined; instead, it was filled with question marks.

Just now, when Brother Chao put on that hood, not only was Brother Chao's cameraman, Xiao Ge, looking puzzled, but the viewers in the live stream were also full of questions.

The production team of "Running Man" is really unprofessional!
You can't even get this small thing wrong!

The fans in Deng Chao's live stream were expressing their dissatisfaction with the comments, feeling that the "Running Man" production team had handled the situation very unprofessionally.

Just when Brother Chao found a good spot, he was about to be taken away and moved to another place.

As for the cameraman following Brother Chao, he was puzzled as to why a staff member he didn't recognize suddenly appeared and said something like "we've taken you to the wrong place," which left him stunned.

That's perfectly correct!

They should have been brought here!
The cameraman thought he had misread it, so he took out the note in his pocket to check, and it said that it was the third floor of the mall!
But before the cameraman could say anything, the staff member had already put the black hood on Chao Ge, then turned around and led Chao Ge out of the tea room and towards the outside.

【? ? ? 】

Wait, why is this staff member wearing a name tag that says "Huka" (meaning "faded coffee")?

Is the "Running Man" production team really this unprofessional? They even lost the name tags of obscure celebrities, letting them just wear them for fun?

[Surely not, the "Running Man" production team wouldn't be that unprofessional!]

[Is this supposed to be a has-been faking it?]

[Impossible, right? If this is some washed-up celebrity faking it, then Brother Chao is finished!]

[Hahaha, I knew this idiot wouldn't play by the rules!]

When I saw Huka change into that outfit, I was wondering what he was up to. Now I finally understand—he was trying to trick Brother Chao!

[Haha, Brother Chao was just picturing how to take down that bum, but now that he knows he's in that bum's hands, I wonder if he'll have a mental breakdown!]

This is so exciting! And it has to be Huka (a popular internet personality) – they really know how to have fun!

[They've really come to take Chao Ge away!]

This scene is amazing, I have to take a screenshot and save it!

After seeing the staff member reveal Lü Ming's name tag, not only the viewers in the live stream immediately understood what had happened, but even the cameraman who had been filming Brother Chao instantly realized what was going on. He turned around and saw his colleague who was filming Lü Ming waving at him from not far away, so he naturally didn't say anything more.

However, when he heard Brother Chao ask Lu Ming about his location, he couldn't help but pinch his arm hard to stop himself from laughing.

This scene is absolutely stunning!

Discussing how to kill Lü Ming in front of him is just too 'bizarre'.

【I can't take it anymore! I just can't stand it, hahaha!】

[This is hilarious! Brother Chao was seriously asking about Huka's location, completely unaware that Huka was right next to him!]

[That bumbling guy is amazing! How can he not laugh?!]

[I can't wait to see Chao-ge's reaction when he learns the truth; it's sure to be a memorable scene!]

[Brother Chao is such a kind person, he even comforted those who haven't made it big in the industry, it's so touching!]

[You idiot, you've committed a heinous crime! How could you bear to hurt such an honest person like Brother Chao?!]

[Honest? Are you talking about Brother Chao?]

I'm going to die laughing in this live stream one day!

Meanwhile, at Deng Chao's home.

"Mom, why does Dad have to wear the wig again?"

Chao Ge and Sun Niangniang's son nestled in Sun Niangniang's arms, watching his father on the screen who had been easily tricked, and asked Sun Niangniang with a hint of doubt on his face.

Uh~~~
Upon hearing his son's question, and seeing Deng Chao on the screen excitedly asking Lü Ming about his location, he couldn't help but slap his head, utterly at a loss for words.

This idiot has completely disgraced himself!
"Stop looking! Have you finished your homework? Go do it now!"

Lady Sun really didn't know how to answer, so she used a method to eliminate future troubles by sending the depressed Xiao Dengzi to her room to do his homework, while she herself leaned back on the sofa and picked up her tablet to watch TV.

Originally, Sun Niangniang wasn't very interested in these variety shows; she only watched them occasionally because Deng Chao participated. In her opinion, "Running Man!" wasn't very interesting.

However, Sun Niangniang did not expect that Lü Ming was so good at turning what was originally a boring name tag ripping game into such a entertaining show. Even she couldn't help but want to keep watching to see just how stupid her husband was and when he would discover the truth.

That's so stupid, but I really want to see just how stupid it can be!
Meanwhile, the production team of "Running Man" quickly noticed something was wrong.

Based on the experience from the previous season, the number of viewers and the level of interest in the live broadcast were not very high at the beginning. It was only when the hosts and guests started to really "battle" that the number of viewers and the discussion gradually increased.

However, the name tag ripping game had only just started, and some guests had only just been taken to their designated locations in the mall and hadn't even had a chance to look around and explore their surroundings when the number of viewers in Lü Ming and Deng Chao's live streams had already skyrocketed, with the barrage of comments filling the entire screen. Even in the main live stream, many people were asking them to quickly rebroadcast the other side's footage.

"Okay!"

"It has to be him!"

After the "Running Man" production team learned what had happened, they were all smiles with excitement as they watched the popularity soar. Even they hadn't expected that Lü Ming would turn such an intense project into something so amazing, even giving it a "Infernal Affairs" feel.

No wonder everyone's saying Lü Ming is some kind of variety show superstar!

This isn't just some kind of variety show saint, this is the absolute god of variety shows in the Chinese entertainment industry!

His entire being is perfect for variety show entertainment. When the show actually airs, this will definitely be a classic moment that will be permanently etched in the history of the program.

It’s just a pity!
Lü Ming participated in this episode. If they had been able to reach an agreement with Lü Ming to film the entire season, then this season of "Running Man" would definitely be etched in the history of Chinese television programs.

"Old Xu, do you think it's possible to talk to him again?"

"Appearance fees are negotiable; as long as he agrees, he can name his own price!"

Inside the Zhejiang TV building, a senior executive of Zhejiang TV couldn't help but speak to a middle-aged man beside him.

This Mr. Xu is the person in charge of variety shows at Zhejiang TV, and he is also in charge of this season of "Running Man!".

Initially, some of the higher-ups at Zhejiang TV were somewhat dissatisfied with the exorbitant appearance fee that Xu Jinglei initially offered to invite Lü Ming to participate in a full season of "Running Man!"

Although Zhejiang TV is known for its deep pockets, the price they offered was simply outrageous, enough to invite several top stars and award-winning actors and actresses to participate in the program.

Under their pressure, and given that Lü Ming himself didn't intend to participate in the entire season of "Running Man," he ultimately only agreed to participate in the first episode.

Originally, these senior executives at Blue TV thought they were very shrewd, thinking that if Lü Ming's participation didn't turn out well, they could cut their losses in time.

But at this moment, they deeply regretted the choices they had made back then.

How could the effect be anything but ideal!
It was far too ideal, even exceeding their expectations.

The number of viewers watching the live stream on the kiwifruit side alone has already broken the record of the previous season by a large margin, and even they can guess what the effect will be when it airs, just by looking at the scene in front of them.

The amount of buzz and entertainment value that Lü Ming alone brought to the show far exceeded that of all the other hosts and guests combined, which was a sure guarantee of high viewership ratings.

If they had been able to sign a contract with Lü Ming for a whole season back then, they would probably be laughing their heads off right now.

But "if" is just "if".

So they couldn't help but ask Old Xu if they could talk to Lü Ming again.

If they could get Lü Ming to agree, Zhejiang TV would pay any appearance fee, even a record-breaking one for the domestic entertainment industry.

Judging from the current situation, even if Lü Ming were given a higher appearance fee, he could easily earn it back through various naming rights and sponsorships.

"He doesn't want to!"

After hearing these words, Lao Xu shook his head, but in his heart he was very disdainful of his colleagues' shortsightedness.

If they had persisted from the beginning, there might have been a tiny sliver of a chance, but now there is definitely no chance at all.

Old Xu knew perfectly well that Lü Ming hadn't originally planned to participate in this season of "Running Man!", but only agreed to participate in one episode because of Gangzi's favor and Dilraba's participation.

Human relationships have their limits!

Now that these high-ranking officials have seen the benefits, it's pointless for them to say anything anymore.

At this moment, Old Xu only had the thought of continuing to befriend Lü Ming.

Although this collaboration with the "Running Man" program has ended, it doesn't mean there won't be opportunities for future collaborations. Zhejiang TV has many other variety shows in the future.

Given Lü Ming's current situation, any variety show he participates in will definitely generate explosive popularity and impact.

Upon hearing Lao Xu's words, the senior executives of Blue TV shook their heads somewhat awkwardly, but inwardly they felt quite regretful.

While the senior executives at Lantai were still somewhat conflicted, the kiwifruit headquarters building was filled with laughter and joy.

"After the show ends, everyone present will receive a three-month bonus!"

Gangzi looked at the live broadcast data displayed on the back-end screen, glanced at the excited kiwi staff beside him, and generously waved his hand, giving each staff member present a bonus.

As a partner of the "Running Man" program, this online live stream of the program was a great success.

Thanks to the numerous memorable moments from variety shows created by Lü Ming, Kiwi's live streams instantly spread across the entire internet, with millions of viewers watching each stream, and some of the most memorable moments attracting nearly ten million simultaneous viewers.

In other words, Kiwi had made preparations in advance, setting up numerous servers in advance, which barely managed to maintain the stability of the live stream.

In just two days of live streaming, they brought nearly 10 million new users to their kiwi fruit business and more than 1 million new members. This is already more than the impact of a quarter's worth of advertising, not to mention the considerable revenue the live stream also generated for them.

In just a short time, many partner brands and sponsors called, hoping to continue their cooperation with kiwifruit.

Although Lü Ming will only be participating in this one episode of "Running Man!", his relationship with Gangzi is now common knowledge within the entertainment circle. (End of Chapter)
