Rise and Slay: From Scandal Queen to Academic Genius - Chapter 339 - 317: This Has Me Completely Baffled
Chapter 339: Chapter 317: This Has Me Completely Baffled
[Hahahaha everyone surrender! Why is it so funny, I’ve started twitching!]
[Don’t be too ridiculous! Someone who doesn’t know might think it’s an anti-crime operation; tsk tsk, Director Guan’s crew has such quick reactions and such precise movements, they’ve probably been working sewing machines for over a decade! (Dog head)]
[Director Wang: You’ve totally stumped me! What is this, I didn’t bring a machine gun!]
[If Director Wang had a machine gun in his hand, he might have already gone rat-a-tat-tat, scared senseless…]
[Causing accidental death is also a crime, notify Ji Xi Zhi, arrest immediately! Stay tuned for the next episode: Overthrowing the Empire, ushering in the Guan Dynasty!]
The live broadcast room erupted into pig squeals of laughter due to these sudden antics.
Director Wang, who opened the door, was stunned for quite a while.
The other guests who followed were similarly caught, with an expression of utter awkwardness on both sides.
Until a staff member in the yard apologetically shouted, “Sorry, sorry, everyone, my hand slipped!”
Although “Life Experience” is a live broadcast, at this point, the show’s guests generally don’t leave, as the yard has fixed live equipment that’s sufficient, while most staff members are indoors or taking shifts, leaving only one person in the yard.
Director Guan suddenly showed up, and the live camera had to be adjusted, lights turned on, resulting in a direct face shot due to the staff’s slip.
The shot lasted very briefly, less than ten seconds, but it was perfectly timed, leading to the current situation.
While apologizing, the staff struggled to adjust on both sides.
Upon seeing this, Ji Xi Zhi simply turned on her heels and walked over to the staff.
She skillfully took over adjusting the live camera.
Live stream fans: [Ji Xi Zhi’s reaction, whoever sees it will say, no doubt, Ji Xi Zhi is the rightful director of “Life Experience”!]
Ji Xi Zhi proactively helped and quickly assisted the staff in fixing it.
The suffocating first encounter between the two productions at the door was finally over.
Director Guan and his team finally saw the situation in the yard, he awkwardly lowered his hands.
Then he proactively reached out to the doorway, saying to Director Wang: “Uncle Wang, ah oops, Director Wang, hello!”
Being flashed by the big lights, Director Guan was still a bit dazed; he instinctively shouted the most common nickname fans use for Director Wang during “Life Experience” live stream.
Director Wang: “……” Confirmed, an archenemy!
“Uncle Guan, hello.”
Director Wang replied angrily.
Director Guan was unfazed, maintaining a very good attitude.
This made Director Wang reluctant to be angry, as both rival directors exchanged pleasantries.
Director Guan said politely: “I heard Director Wang is filming nearby, so I happened to be in the area for a walk and thought to visit. Hope I’m not interrupting!”
Director Wang wore a fake smile: “No, not at all, how could you be? I heard one of my show’s guests acted in Director Guan’s production this afternoon, hope we didn’t cause you any trouble?”
Director Guan: “No trouble at all! Having Teacher Ji visit is an honor for our production!”
As Director Guan spoke, his gaze continued to drift towards Ji Xi Zhi.
In truth, he hadn’t planned to come here today; after all, their production was really unpopular, despite Ji Xi Zhi hitting the trending list once today, it was no match for a popular variety show like “Life Experience,” which is a live variety show. If he suddenly appeared, it would seem like he was trying to steal the spotlight.
But he couldn’t resist someone from the production team watching “Life Experience” live, and upon seeing Le Qiqi talk about considering investment, Director Guan’s thoughts rapidly changed.
Even if he’s criticized for riding the wave, who cares! If there’s a chance to secure such a big investment for the production crew, he’d go to “Life Experience” crew to see Le Qiqi and the others even if it kills him!
After a few exchanges with Director Wang, Director Guan quickly stated his purpose.
Director Guan: “Teacher Ji, is it convenient for me to have a word with Teacher Ji?”
Director Wang: “!!!” As expected, it’s to see Ji Xi Zhi!
Before Director Wang could stop him, Ji Xi Zhi already came over.
Ji Xi Zhi nodded and greeted, “Director Guan.”
Upon seeing Ji Xi Zhi, Director Guan’s smile seemed to magnify, starkly different from the smile he had for Director Wang.
Director Guan thought, since they were going to discuss investment matters, it’s definitely not appropriate to discuss directly in front of the show’s live camera, but he didn’t know Le Qiqi, so he could only approach Ji Xi Zhi first.
Talking about investment topics also wasn’t appropriate directly at the courtyard entrance. Director Guan contemplated, recalling Ji Xi Zhi’s earnest studying in the production crew previously, he proactively said:
“Teacher Ji, I was just wondering if you needed any help with anything here? I noticed you took a lot of notes in the crew this afternoon, and even Meng Tu came over. Do you need directors, camera operators, or logistics staff etc.?”
