Chapter 34 Checking the Luggage
In front of the camera, an older man pointed to a tall boy next to him and said...
"Hello, I am actor Yu Xin, and this is my cousin Xie Bang, who is a high school student."
Xie Bangchao waved to the audience.
Wow! The production team is amazing! They actually managed to get Best Actor Yu Xin to come.
—It turns out the mystery guest is none other than Best Actor Yu!
—Actor Yu's younger brother is also quite handsome, a real cutie!
Yu Xin is from Northeast China; I wonder if my cousin speaks with a strong Northeastern accent.
—Upstairs, you really know how to do it.
"Hello friends in front of the screen, I am singer Zhang Yixiao, and the beautiful lady next to me is Qian Xiaotong."
"Hello everyone." Qian Xiaotong smiled gently.
—We're here!
—Isn't this Qian Xiaotong a member of that girl group before?
—Yes, she is a member of the X Girls Group. Please give Qian Xiaotong your support.
—I was wondering why Yixiao was with her; it turns out they were on the same show.
After the introduction, the show's popularity soared, even surpassing the data from the same period last season.
The director was worried that this season wouldn't be as good as the last one, but now he's relieved.
Finally, it was Qi You's turn to introduce himself, wearing a mask. He explained that he had been wearing a mask since the show started airing.
"Hello everyone, I'm Qi You, and this is my good brother Xiao west."
"Hello everyone, I'm Xiaoxi, we're good (emphasis) brothers."
—Oh my god, that voice is so soothing!
—Qi You, is that the calligraphy livestreamer who's been really popular lately?
—Are you sure they're good buddies? (winking)
—Looks like you watched that PK battle, hehe!
"Who? Never heard of them. And they're wearing a mask, are they so ugly they can't bear to be seen?"
So what if someone doesn't want to show their face?
"Welcome again to all our guests!" The director, still sitting behind the camera, held his megaphone.
"Next up, we'll have our traditional program—checking your luggage!"
The staff placed all the luggage brought by the guests in front of the camera.
The director, with a mocking expression, said, "As everyone knows, food and electronic devices are not allowed on our show. Let's begin the inspection!"
At the director's command, the guests opened their suitcases.
The camera first focuses on Lin Qiqi and Song Qianyi's luggage.
"Qiqi, you guys... are pretty good!" The director was just about to make a big splash, but he wasn't given the chance at all, so he had to look at the next group.
—Haha, Director Di got his comeuppance.
—Did you guys notice that Song Qianyi's suitcase is full of expensive clothes and cosmetics? What is she doing? Is she showing off her wealth?
—I hate people who flaunt their wealth the most, as if they're afraid no one will know they're broke.
—I think you're just sour grapes.
Director Di then checked the luggage of the other guests.
Snacks were found in Dong Taoran and Xiao west's suitcases, and even seasonings were found in Yu Xin's suitcase.
—Turns out, even Best Actor Yu is a foodie, hahaha!
—How adorable Ranran is! She even secretly brought snacks! (chuckles)
Then they found a music player on Bi Jing's computer, and game consoles on Xie Bang's and Zhang Yixiao's computers.
—Look at Xie Bang's expression, it's hilarious!
—It's like when a kid drops their candy, they're so upset, hahaha.
"The luggage search is now complete. Next, all guests will need to hand over their phones. The phones will be returned to you when the recording ends."
Each episode of this variety show lasts two days and one night. Xie Bang held onto his phone tightly, saying, "You guys already took away my game console, so I can keep this one!"
The staff ignored what he was saying and snatched the phone away.
—Is this Xie Bang a fun person?
—Haha, Xie Bang is so funny!
After a thorough search, seeing that no one had hidden their phones, Director Di finally served dinner. This was the first and last time the guests received food directly.
After dinner, it was finally time for everyone's most pressing concern: sleep.
Director Di picked up his signature megaphone.
"Everyone has eaten and drunk their fill, right? Next, we're going to play a little game to assign rooms to everyone."
A staff member holds up different signs and displays them in front of the camera.
"We have provided five different types of rooms. The first place winner will get a deluxe double room, the second place winner will get a nice cozy standard room, the third place winner will get a slightly less desirable single room, the fourth place winner will get to sleep in a car provided by the production team, and the fifth place winner will get to sleep on a straw bed in the cowshed next door."
— Hahaha, Director Di is as good at creating mischief as ever!
—This fifth place is just too tragic!
—The fifth person I feel sorry for
"Our game is 'You Have What I Don't Have.' You and your friend form a team, and each team only has five lives. Think it through before you speak. Game start!"
