Shattering the talent show script, sweeping the world film scene

There are three screenwriters in the production team, and Wang Ji is the youngest of them.

After calling out to Jiang Xiheng, he said to Song Wei, "Xiheng is trending on social media tonight, Director Song."

Song Wei knew about this, but he felt that this kind of fleeting trending topic wouldn't last long.

Wang Ji laughed and said, "It's not just him, Xie Xingyan is also trending. This time, west Heng and Xie Xingyan are in the original B group, the group that is competing against Yang Tianhang, right?"

Mentioning Yang Tianhang, Song Wei's narrow eyes flashed, and his pupils darted around: "Those two groups are rivals?"

"Yes, what is Xiheng here for to do for his team?" Wang Jishi kindly reminded him, and Xiheng went along with it, saying that he wanted classical musical instruments, a music arranger, custom-made costumes, and two props.

After Jiangxi Heng finished speaking, Song Wei casually retorted, "Ai Xu said your team is the weakest among all the teams. Does that mean you have a lot of underachievers?"

The sarcasm and ridicule from those in higher positions are different from those from their peers.

Peers are there for the purpose of competition, trying to break someone down, while those in a superior position are simply sarcastic and mean-spirited.

Jiangxi Heng looked up at Song Wei, a bald, fat man with small eyes and sausage lips, and made a mental note of him.

Wang Ji, who was listening nearby, seemed to roll his eyes and stepped in to smooth things over, saying, "I remember Yang Tianhang was also striving for perfection in the first and second rounds. Since they are opposing teams, they should be treated the same. What do you think, Director Song?"

One is "poor students have too many stationery items," and the other is "striving for perfection." They mean roughly the same thing, but they sound different when spoken by different people.

Song Wei seemed to have thought of something, pondered for more than ten seconds, and finally waved his hand: "Wang Ji, you take him to make the arrangements."

After Jiangxi Heng and Wang Ji left the office, Wang Ji casually remarked, "Yang Tianhang is a rising star that Wanhua is heavily promoting. Wanhua has talked to Director Song several times, but the conversations haven't been very pleasant. The other four companies are also eyeing the number one spot. Director Song thinks that fair competition is the best approach..."

Jiangxi Heng chuckled softly and nodded.

Fair competition? It's clearly an attempt to raise prices arbitrarily.

However, this screenwriter Wang Ji...

Jiangxi Heng looked at him and said, "Thank you for your help, Screenwriter Wang."

Wang Ji smiled and waved his hand, leading Jiangxi Heng to get things done.

"...That's how it is."

After Jiangxi Heng and the other two finished speaking, they received three thoughtful glances.

The contestants were not very familiar with the behind-the-scenes staff of the show. They only knew the director and assistant director, but did not know Wang Ji. They discussed it back and forth but came to no avail.

Xie Xingyan stood up: "Alright, maybe it's just that screenwriter Wang is a nice guy? Now that everyone's here and the music's ready, let's do a full rehearsal. Props..."

He looked around and found only a plastic broom and a plastic dustpan.

"Let's use this one!"

……

The program includes a segment called "solo interview." (Solo interview: a one-on-one interview)

However, before this, the daily interviews only focused on a few popular contestants, and Xie Xingyan had never been interviewed.

Halfway through rehearsal today, there was a knock on the door of the practice room.

A staff member came to remind them: "Xie Xingyan, Jiangxi Heng, you two tidy up, come to the individual interview room now to conduct the interview."

Exhausted, Fang Weiyang scrambled to her feet, delighted for the two: "You've got a solo interview?"

Xie Xingyan was also somewhat surprised and confused, wondering what questions the production team would ask and how he should answer them.

I've heard that some shows are really disgusting; they deliberately edit out the contestants' words to ruin their image.

Some contestants were deliberately challenged with difficult questions, causing them to embarrass themselves on camera.

Will he encounter such a thing?

A warm, burning sensation came from her wrist. Xie Xingyan looked down and then looked up again. It was Jiangxi Heng holding her hand.

"Don't worry, I guess it's that thing."

Jiangxi Heng's pupils were pitch black, like a black hole drawing Xie Xingyan's attention. He tightened his grip, pulling Xie Xingyan out of the classroom. Turning back, he instructed Chi Ziyou and Fang Weiyang, "It shouldn't be long. You two can stay and continue practicing."

After pulling the bewildered person out of the practice room, taking advantage of a blind spot in the corridor where there were no cameras, Jiangxi Heng quickly said, "Time is tight, let's go over things beforehand, about when we met, how we became friends, our first impressions of each other..."

Xie Xingyan nodded with a serious face.

Five minutes later.

The two walked out from the corner one after the other and came to the single-selection room on the first floor, but unexpectedly, the contestants who were also participating in the single-selection today arrived before them.

Xie Xingyan leaned closer to Jiangxi Heng: "Qin Yushan."

Jiangxi Heng only saw a back view. Judging from the height, this person was no shorter than the body. He recalled Qin Yushan's appearance and remembered an icy face.

Xie Xingyan knew quite a bit about the contestants in the top tier. Since she had nothing else to do while waiting, she whispered to Jiang Xiheng: "Qin Yushan is also a contestant who got an A on the initial stage. Like Zhou Lehui, he is a lead vocalist, but their singing styles are completely different. Zhou Lehui is good at tender, sweet and lovely love songs, while he is good at deep, sad, melancholic and painful love songs."

Add the word "bitter" to a love song, and it becomes completely different.

"Qin Yushan is an artist under Lingxi Music. He has consistently ranked in the top seven in the last two rankings. However, before I entered the camp, I saw some people online saying that Qin Yushan's chances of debuting were either 100% or 0%. Do you know why?"

A strange expression appeared on Xie Xingyan's face, as if he was thinking, wanting to laugh, and also feeling some sympathy and curiosity.

Jiangxi Heng shook his head: "How can there be two different probability values?"

Xie Xingyan: "Among us, only Qin Yushan and Gu Zhoubai have participated in three talent shows. However, the latter at least debuted, while the former... The first talent show ended hastily due to insufficient funds, and the final team was not even formed; the second talent show was interrupted by a contestant jumping off a building, and the higher-ups immediately stopped the show; the third talent show was interrupted by a fire at the venue, which killed people, so the show naturally could not be held."

Jiangxi Heng looked surprised.

Xie Xingyan raised an eyebrow and glanced at Jiangxi Heng: "Didn't you do any research on your competitors before coming to the show?"

Jiangxi Heng remained silent. Could he say that the original owner had become so despondent that he was "oblivious to everything else"?

"Ahem, so you're saying this person either has a 100% chance of debuting, or..."

Xie Xingyan stared at the closed door and said, "I believe that 80% of the contestants in the camp, like me, were told by the company to stay away from Qin Yushan before they came. These big bosses are a bit superstitious and think that Qin Yushan is a bit evil and that wherever he goes, disaster will follow, but he himself is fine."

"Qin Yushan himself has probably heard these rumors. Apart from participating in necessary training and activities, he always goes his own way. Some people in the camp used to call you two the 'Lonely Duo'."
