Chapter 470: Undercover Mission
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
After hearing the director’s question, the fixed emcee, who was also the production team’s big brother, Mai Tian, arm-wrestled and said, “Old You, you’re not kind. If you want to hold a welcome party, you just have to welcome the newcomers. We’re all old acquaintances. Why are you still so polite to us?”
You Jing said shamelessly, “Isn’t this to show that the production team treats everyone equally?”
Mai Tian frowned and complained, “You’re treating everyone equally for the production team, but have you ever thought about an old artist like me who’s already in his forties or fifties? My energy and stamina can’t compare to young people to begin with. In addition, I have so many tasks, but you don’t even let me sleep. Isn’t that too much?”
You Jing did not even bat an eyelid at his protest. “If you think it’s too hard, you can admit defeat in advance and accept your punishment.”
When Mai Tian heard this, he immediately stopped pretending to be pitiful. “Sigh, we’re already here. How can we admit defeat so easily?” What a joke. Who knew what tragic punishment You Jing would come up with his torturing skills?
He did not want to experience the scene of dancing in a stripper’s outfit in the square while asking for money and being chased by the city enforcement officers again. If the production team had not stopped the officers back then, he would have been on the social news and embarrassed.
Seeing that it had stopped, You Jing snorted softly. Although Mai Tian made it sound so tragic, these fixed emcees had participated in the show for so long and fought with their production team so many times. They had long become wily old foxes. How could they be so easily tricked?
Most of the time, it looked like they had been played very badly. They were more or less cooperating with the production team to achieve results.
Hence, You Jing ignored their complaints and looked at the production team of “The Splendor of the Republic of China”. “I wonder if the teachers are satisfied with our welcome ceremony.”
Yu Han and the others all looked like they had nothing to live for. Only Su Lan did not look too good. She kept wanting to say something, but seeing that Wang Fan and Song Yun, the male and female leads, did not say anything, she could only swallow her words.
You Jing was just asking as usual. As for the guests’ opinions, he basically wouldn’t accept them. Hence, after exchanging a few pleasantries, he announced that they would disband.
“It’s not even four o’clock yet. Our first segment has ended here. Teachers, you can return to your rooms to continue resting. We’ll gather in the lobby on the first floor at eight o’clock tomorrow to begin our second mission. 1 hope you won’t be late, or you’ll have to accept our punishment.”
As soon as he said this, the guests complained.
“I’ve already been tortured by you. How am I going to sleep when I get back?”
“It’s already four o’clock. We have to gather at eight. Coupled with the time for makeup and hair, and the time for breakfast, we have to get up at six at the latest. What’s there to sleep for two hours?”
After You Jing heard this, he asked tentatively, “If you don’t want to continue sleeping, shall we proceed to the next segment overnight?”
As soon as he said this, all the guests immediately dispersed like birds.
The director called Jiang Li’s name. “Stay here for a while.”
Yu Han turned around and saw that Su Lan and her manager, Zhao Gang, were still at the same spot. She guessed that Su Lan wanted to retake the scene of her waking up.
She originally thought that the production team would not agree to Su Lan’s request since they were so domineering. Seeing that the director specially asked Jiang Li to stay, she was afraid that he had already agreed to reshoot.
However, these things had nothing to do with Yu Han. She just had to complete her filming mission.
Hence, she returned to her room briskly. She could only sleep for two hours. She could not waste a second.
However, just as she opened the door, a director suddenly appeared behind her and handed her a mission card. Yu Han took it at a loss. “Didn’t the director say that the next segment of the mission will only begin after we gather at eight in the morning?”
The director didn’t say anything. He just gestured for her to open it.
Yu Han could only open the seal and open the mission card. It read: [Dear player, hello. Congratulations on becoming an undercover specially chosen by the production team. Please find your like-minded friends on this journey to complete the undercover mission with you and win.]
There was also a line of words below that described how to form an alliance with others and mark her friends.
The smile on Yu Han’s face froze. She looked at the director in disbelief. “Why did you give me such an important mission?”
Being an undercover meant that the production team would have a lot of cameras on her..
