Chapter 126 Variety Show
The original owner was an out-of-date female star who rarely got any work all year round. As her contract was about to be terminated, the company suddenly showed mercy and gave the original owner a resource.
A wilderness survival variety show.
But the original owner participated in this variety show with a mission, which was to serve as a control group for the young actresses whose company was on the rise but who were involved in scandals, to highlight the gentle and knowledgeable character.
For the sake of money and exposure, the original owner readily agreed. No matter what she encountered, she always looked ignorant, which made her gentleness appear cultured and profound.
With Wenrou's reversal of reputation, fans have forgotten what she did before and have commented in the comment section, "Sister is so awesome."
On the contrary, the original owner has lost many fans, and except for a few fans who like his looks, he has almost no active fans left.
The original owner didn't care. She was a small-time celebrity and had become a nobody in the entertainment industry. It was unclear when she would retire.
But the original owner's indifference made the company and Wenrou's team go even further. They hired internet trolls to discredit the original owner and trample her under their feet.
Especially after the original owner stopped Wenrou from teasing the red fire ant nest, she hinted to the big fans to lead the rhythm and make the original owner blacklisted on the entire network.
The original owner had no agent to remind her, nor an assistant to help her pay attention to online public opinion. She didn't know what was happening online and continued to serve as a gentle control group.
Wenrou deliberately designed this to create the illusion that the original owner was pushing her downhill, in order to squeeze out her last bit of value.
The original owner knew nothing about all this. As soon as she returned home after recording a variety show, she was splashed with sulfuric acid by a gentle illegitimate fan. Not only did she become blind and disfigured, she also lost her life.

"If you record this variety show well and perform well, the company may continue to sign you. Don't blame the company. You are not a good actor and you don't have many fans. You have not made any progress in all these years. The company is already doing you a favor by not asking you to pay compensation."
"Sister Yan said it all, I will behave well."
The woman was the original owner's agent. She could barely make a few phone calls a year, let alone arrange work face to face.
The company is not a good company, but Sister Yan is still a good person. Although she did not give resources to the original owner, she did not use the original owner to exchange resources.
But the original owner's youth was wasted from the age of eighteen to twenty-eight.
But the original owner was not someone who would wait for resources to come to him. He was either studying or playing supporting roles in the crew. His acting skills were average, and he was either a background vase or a corpse.
After five or six years of experience as an extra, he still hasn't figured out his acting skills, which shows that the original owner's talent is average.
This variety show is broadcast live, and the guests invited are all very popular. Zhang Shan is a buy one get one free guest. She not only serves as a control group for Wenrou, but also as a stepping stone for seniors in the entertainment industry.
Although it hasn't started yet, Jiang Shan has already got the script. She is not only a gentle control group, but also an actor who has been away from the screen for many years. She is Gao Mingze's fake fan girl. She wanted to stick to him and get traffic, but her lie was ruthlessly exposed by Gao Mingze.
At the same time, she is also an annoying green tea bitch who uses her affectation and gossip to highlight the true nature of other guests.
“It’s quite busy!”
While packing my luggage, I used my meager savings to invest, and when I had free time, I would read novels to look for inspiration.
If acting doesn't work out, we still have other options.
Acting isn't the only way to go in the entertainment industry, right?
As a "troublemaker", Zhang Shan was very dedicated. She made the crew, guests and audience wait for an hour before she slowly walked over, carrying a trolley case and wearing high heels.
[Who is this girl? Do you think she is walking on the red carpet? She is wearing high heels. ]
[Who is this? Is he some famous person? He is such a big name that everyone has been waiting for so long. ]
[I don’t know him, can someone introduce him to me? ]
[Don’t rush to criticize, who is this person? ]
Zhang Shan looked around and found that they were all old acquaintances.
Movie star Gao Mingze, 40, retired from the screen for five years and gambled away all his accumulated money, so he had to return to the entertainment industry to make money.
An Ning, 54, the upright but snobbish big sister of the entertainment industry, has been very active in various variety shows recently and holds an upper-middle position in the entertainment industry.
The national daughter Ye Lanxiang is 27 years old, but has been in the industry for 28 years. She has recently been caught up in a plastic surgery scandal and lost her endorsements.
Jiang Ziyuan, the 23-year-old music prince with absolute pitch, is an outstanding graduate of a famous foreign music academy, but his political stance is problematic.
Wenrou, a 25-year-old young actress with both beauty and talent, has starred in two palace fighting dramas, both of which became very popular. Her net worth has also soared, and public opinion has also followed.
The last one is the original owner, an 18th-tier unknown star, and she came with a lot of flaws.
Six people, four women and two men, were all present.
"Zhang Shan, no one knows you. Introduce yourself so we can get to know each other."
Zhang Shan received the director's hint and said in a very pretentious manner, "My name is Zhang Shan. I don't have any representative works, but my favorite idol is Mr. Gao. Mr. Gao, can you sign an autograph for me?"
As he spoke, he took out a stack of photos and stretched them in front of Gao Mingze. In front of the camera, Gao Mingze showed no airs and helped Zhang Shan sign.
An Ning: "Young people nowadays may not be that famous, but they are more arrogant than us old people. They have no manners at all."
No one dared to respond to An Ning's words. She was a straightforward person and had the highest status among those present. Her fans really liked her character.
"I'm sorry, I only know Mr. Gao. What are your names? Can you introduce yourselves?"
As soon as Zhang Shan finished speaking, the whole place fell silent, even the barrage of comments disappeared.
After a long while, An Ning laughed angrily: "You don't know me? Then all my decades of work have been in vain. Don't say that you only know Mr. Gao in the entertainment industry?"
"No, I still know some big international stars, such as the TV Queen Wen, TV Queen Zhao, Xiao Qiao, and the TV King."
An Ning’s status is indeed not low, but she is much less famous than these people. She is also among the top 5 in film and television dramas.
Zhang Shan's words made An Ning throw her luggage away and leave.
The director felt dizzy after reading the comments. He had achieved the desired effect and the method was correct, but...
"Hurry up and pull Sister Ning back!"
The director, staff, and guests finally managed to bring An Ning back to her senses, but her anger did not subside.
"It turns out that I am not qualified to be on the same stage with you. How big of a celebrity are you? You don't even have the slightest respect for me, a movie star who has won dozens of awards."
"Me? I'm not a celebrity, but it doesn't seem wrong that I don't know you, right? Does everyone in the world have to know you?"
Zhang Shan looked so innocent, which made An Ning very angry.
"Okay, okay, I'll see how far you can go as an actor."
Ban her, she must ban her!
She was almost going crazy when being mocked by such an 18th-tier unknown star for not being as famous as Wen Ruoxue and others.
"Okay, the trip has officially begun. We are going to take a plane to the southern Xinjiang forest. This is..."
Zhang Shan didn't need to think about it, her live broadcast room was already stuck. Being a black and red person is also a red one. She might as well gain some popularity and make herself familiar to the audience.
Because there was no one around Zhang Shan when they first arrived, they didn't dare to get close to Zhang Shan for fear of being implicated.
Zhang Shan sold all of Gao Mingze's autographed photos, one hundred yuan per photo, and earned three thousand yuan.
When we arrived at our destination, everyone got off the plane with their backpacks on, as the original suitcases were no longer suitable.
Zhang Shan was the last one to get off the plane, still wearing a green flower skirt and high heels.
An Ning snorted coldly and led the other four people into the deep forest.
The gentle new character is a little angel who loves nature and is also an encyclopedia of nature, introducing plants to everyone along the way.
Zhang Shan didn't care whether others listened or not, but she did not forget the work of the "control group" and kept asking questions.
But Wenrou had done her homework in advance, and the two of them spoke fluently, and the audience's impression of Wenrou became better and better.
"Zhang Shan, you said you are a fan of Mr. Gao, so you must know all of Mr. Gao's roles, right?"
The person asking the questions was Jiang Ziyuan, who had a collaboration with An Ning and wanted to help An Ning vent her anger.
"No, I'm a fan of his looks, not his acting skills. If you ask me to tell you how many spots and acne marks there are on Actor Gao's face, I can list them one by one."
"What? You...how can you be called a fan? You are just a fake fan! You want to take advantage of Mr. Gao's popularity and trick him into signing an autograph."
"I never said I was a fan of his dramas. Brother Ziyuan, are you jealous that Mr. Gao signed for me but not for you?"
"Or do you feel insulted that I didn't ask for your autograph?"
I almost forgot that she also has a green tea personality, but forgive her, it seems that she can't be a green tea anymore.
"you!"
An Ning, who was once again implied, stood up and wanted to slap Zhang Shan.
But she is not in the right. She cannot hit someone just because the other person doesn't know her.
"Everyone, have rested, let's get going."
They had to find a place with water to set up camp and spend seven days there before they completed their mission.
An Ning was still angry and didn't want to go with Gao Mingze at all. "Let's split up into two groups."
Gao Mingze: "Sister Ning, although this is not a rain forest, it is still very dangerous. Let's go together."
"So what did you find after searching for so long?"
"I'm going this way, you can follow me if you want."
An Ning walked up the mountain along the path angrily, and the others had no choice but to follow.
Until nightfall, we still couldn't find a place to pitch a tent.
Others are angry but dare not express it, and still have to greet people with a smile. It is really hard.
An Ning would not admit that she had taken the wrong road, and would only complain that there was something wrong with the map the director gave her.
Not only that, she was wandering around in the woods alone and lost her map.
Now everyone is in the dark.
Wenrou: "It's okay, we will find a way out. The direction with dense tree canopy points to the south. We will definitely find the way out if we follow this direction."
In the barrage, everyone praised Wenrou for her intelligence and knowledge, saying that she is worthy of being a graduate of a prestigious university.
It was already dark, so everyone stopped and planned to stay where they were and set off again the next day.
Zhang Shan had a small tent in her backpack, so she didn't have to squeeze with them. When An Ning saw her small tent, there was no smile on her face.
She thought that if she isolated Zhang Shan, Zhang Shan would be left alone and helpless.
She was isolated, but Zhang Shan would not endure hardship.
At night, Zhang Shan ate a hamburger in the tent. The tent was of good quality and the smell did not spread to the next tent.
They also had food, and each ate his own, but it was all dry bread and biscuits, which they filled their stomachs with water.
They only had enough food for three days, and had to fend for themselves for the remaining four days.
The next day, An Ning didn't dare to move on her own and followed Gao Mingze down the mountain. After walking for a day, everyone was tired and thirsty. The water that was originally enough for three days was finished in two days.
Gao Mingze: "Everyone doesn't have much food left, why not gather the food together and distribute it uniformly."
Everyone agreed and took out the food and water.
But when she arrived at Anning, she had left two loaves of bread and was chewing a piece of sausage in her mouth.
"That's all I have left. I'm old and get hungry quickly. Do you have any objection to leaving two?"
