Shattering the talent show script, sweeping the world film scene

"Ah..." Hua Rongrong shook her head, "Xiheng, this should be your first time doing a solo interview, right? How does it feel? Nervous?"

Jiangxi Heng raised an eyebrow slightly and calmly replied, "Not nervous at all, it's an honor."

Honestly, if someone else struck that pose and said those words, even someone as used to the glamorous world of the Chinese entertainment industry as Hua Rongrong would think the other person was pretentious and bluffing.

But for some reason, Jiangxi Heng's actions only made people feel that he was noble.

He shouldn't be wearing such a cheap camp uniform; he should be wearing a low-key, luxurious suit. He shouldn't be sitting on a cheap plastic chair; he should be sitting on an expensive leather chair. He shouldn't be participating in their talent show; he should be appearing in a high-quality movie.

Hua Rongrong took a deep breath and focused on the interview: "That's good. Then we'll proceed with the formal interview. The program has reached the third public performance. What's your assessment of Xiheng's performance so far?"

Clearly, this is also a trap problem.

The production team knew all too well how Jiangxi Heng had performed in the past, yet this time they were going to publicly ask him about it.

If the player had a weak mentality, they would have already covered their face in shame.

Jiangxi Heng smiled faintly, without much emotion: "My assessment is that the 44th place the production team gave me is very appropriate."

If a hater asks, "Where is appropriate?" Last place, isn't that appropriate?

If fans ask why it's appropriate, wouldn't it be inappropriate to try and secure a spot in the next round?

I threw the question back to the production team: "I didn't perform well before, it was you who gave me this ranking, it was you who made me stay."

Jiangxi Heng has fallen into many pitfalls during interviews and has long since developed the method of avoiding answers and changing the subject. He just taught Xie Xingyan a few tricks.

Hua Rongrong felt extremely troubled. Why was there another slippery contestant?

Seeing this, I had no choice but to follow up with the question: "Xi Heng, what place do you hope to achieve in the next three rounds of the imperial examinations?"

"Naturally, it's the ranking that allows you to advance and stay."

Hua Rongrong gritted her teeth in frustration and asked even more pointedly, "Do you have a final goal in mind for the show? For example, who do you want to surpass? Or what's your debut ranking?"

Jiangxi Heng was stunned. The ultimate goal in the show was, of course, to withdraw from the competition from the highest point!

Of course, this kind of thing can't be said out loud.

Saying something like "surpassing" someone can be quite offensive.

Debut rankings? I won't mention the first and second place, those two are still "fighting" each other. The third place is Zhou Lehui, whose fans are also very powerful. The fourth place is Qin Yushan.

Well, this calamity probably doesn't care much about his "words" stealing his place.

"This time it's 44, the ultimate goal is fourth place." If I withdraw from the competition when I reach fourth place, the hype should be the highest, and then it would be best to seamlessly transition into my first movie or TV show.

Jiangxi Heng said it casually, as if he were joking.

Hua Rongrong finally let him off the hook, asking him some simple questions, still about his favorite food, favorite city, favorite weather, and favorite season.

Similar to Xie Xingyan, yet different.

"Food? Does a tomato count?" In an attempt to ride the wave of popularity of the tomato video, they've started spouting nonsense.

"If we're talking about cities, then it's this city, Kyoto."

Jiangxi Heng searched his memory of the world and found that history changed during the Republic of China period, which led to changes in the names of the people who appeared later, but the important events still occurred as usual.

Throughout world history, famous musicians, writers, philosophers, and so on have either changed their names or their works have changed, but the general direction of civilization's development, apart from falling behind, has been correct.

The map sections haven't changed much either, only the city names have changed a bit.

He gave a conservative answer, neither wrong nor outstanding.

However, on the last question about the season, Hua Rongrong gave a sly hint: "Xie Xingyan just answered this question, and he answered it very well. We'll include it in the final cut. If you don't answer properly, we'll cut your answer out entirely!"

As a seasoned interview director, he could sense Jiangxi Heng's evasive and perfunctory attitude.

Jiangxi Heng coughed lightly, thought for a second, and then smiled at the camera.

"My favorite season is autumn."

Hua Rongrong was surprised. Could it be that her answer was the same as Xie Xingyan's?

Why do you like autumn?

Jiangxi Heng looked out the window at the falling leaves: "The prosperity and decline of the year all happen in autumn."

Hua Rongrong was stunned. Are you two philosophers? How come everything you say makes such sense, and even has a hidden meaning?

Jiangxi Heng stood up from his seat and bowed slightly to the staff on site: "Thank you for your hard work."

The staff hurriedly shook their heads: "It's not hard work, it's not hard work~" Strange, why do they feel like they've become someone else's subordinates?

Hua Rongrong watched Jiangxi Heng leave the room. As the door opened, a figure appeared in the center of the scene. Soon, Jiangxi Heng came to that person's side. What was originally a somewhat lonely scene suddenly became something more.

It's like a still painting that has been infused with life and started to flow.

"alright?"

"Alright, let's go."

The conversation between the two interviewers was also quite ordinary.

As Jiangxi Heng took the lead and walked forward, Xie Xingyan seemed to sense something and turned around to see Hua Rongrong watching them through the crack in the closing door.

Neither of them knew who was more embarrassed than the other.

They smiled at each other and looked away.

The door closed.

A staff member asked Hua Rongrong, "Director Hua, our interviews today have gone a bit over time. Should we cut half of Jiangxi Heng's interview and a third of Xie Xingyan's interview?"

Hua Rongrong stopped her: "No, put both of these interviews on, and reduce the number of interviews from the other interviewees."

"Huh? But the other interviewees are all from the top tier."

Hua Rongrong said with certainty, "Just do as I say. I have a feeling that these two will become very popular in the future."

The young staff member laughed and said, "Really? You can tell?"

Hua Rongrong chuckled and stopped talking.

The interview footage for tonight was quickly compiled and sent to the editing team. Cai Fu strolled over with a thermos in hand and saw Wang Ji standing behind a computer, watching the editing team members operate it.

"Hey, Xiao Wang, what brings you here?"

Wang Ji turned around and said with a smile, "Brother Cai, come and take a look at today's material. We have nothing to do anyway."

Cai Fu stepped forward, stared at the screen, and took a sip of jujube tea: "These two kids are doing great."

The screen shows individual interviews with Jiangxi Heng and Xie Xingyan, and staff are adding subtitles and some interesting special effects and patterns.

Wang Ji looked at it for a while and replied, "Brother Cai, what do you mean by that?"
