Chapter 13: Does Su Chengxi Really Know Jiang Chenan Only Has Three Seconds?
"Please tell Director Lin to replace the staff, otherwise in five minutes, I'll have my team come in," He Suyan said, without looking at the others.
Su Yuqing was one of his own crew.
The follow-cam PD saw that things were getting out of hand and hurriedly took out a walkie-talkie to start communicating.
A moment later, "I'm sorry, Teacher He, Miss Su, Director Lin says a more professional styling team will be sent over immediately."
As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of several stylists turned pale in an instant.
Director Lin had directly negated their professionalism.
"Teacher He, please give us another chance, we..."
"Sorry." The assistant director hurried over, interrupting the stylists' pleas for mercy.
"My apologies, this was an oversight on the part of the production team. Don't worry, the new styling team will be here in three minutes," the assistant director said while wiping the sweat from his forehead.
Director Lin had already lost his temper!
He gave a cold glance at the woman who was doing Su Yuqing's makeup and had someone take them out.
The assistant director was perceptive; he also knew about Su Yuqing's upcoming entry into Chengtian.
Although he didn't understand why He Suyan had suddenly gone mad, under the circumstances, you respect the monk out of respect for the Buddha.
"Miss Su, Director Lin says he's very sorry and asks you to rest assured that such a situation won't happen again."
Su Yuqing curved her lips in what looked like a comical expression at this moment, "It's not Director Lin's fault."
The styling team of the program was outsourced and could not be completely controlled.
After the assistant director said a few more courteous words, he left the rest area and closed the door behind him, his expression cooling down immediately.
"Does Su Chengxi hate you that much?" Gu Zhan's mouth twitched.
Using this method to make Su Yuqing look bad was indeed ruthless.
"Mhm, she's jealous that I'm prettier than her and afraid I'll steal the limelight."
Gu Zhan...
He knew it.
"If you don't want to use the program's makeup team, I can have Fu Jin bring people in," He Suyan looked at Su Yuqing, his dark eyes deep and unchanging in emotion.
But Gu Zhan felt that God He's attitude towards him and Su Yuqing was different!
He seemed to have an indescribable closeness towards Su Yuqing.
"Let's not, let's give the production team another chance," Su Yuqing chuckled lightly, "I'm going to wash my face."
The newly arrived styling team and a few follow-cam PDs: "..."
Watching this scene in the control room, Director Lin couldn't help but twitch at the corner of his mouth.
But what was up with He Suyan? He had inexplicably jumped into the sea to save Su Yuqing and since then had been openly and covertly protecting her.
If He Suyan hadn't intervened in the online controversy, Su Yuqing would probably be getting smeared by now.
In the rest area, the newly arrived styling team was much more reliable and met professional standards.
Soon they had finished He Suyan's and Gu Zhan's styling, and the two changed into their performance costumes.
Gu Zhan wore a silver suit, a casual hooded model, and the stylist had done some highlighting on his hair. The makeup was somewhat extravagant, but the effect was exceptionally good. With a hooked lip and a playful eye, he exuded a strong sense of fashion.
He Suyan was in black ripped jeans paired with a silver jacket, with a black shirt inside. His hair was parted in a 4:6 split, colored and slightly curled, and apart from slightly elongated flicks at the eyes, he was almost without makeup.
But this styling still made everyone catch their breath for a few seconds.
The last time God He had stage makeup was five years ago.
Ever since he started doing movies, he had rejected all the flakey invitations to be on stage.
For Su Yuqing, styling took a bit longer because she was a woman.
"Hello everyone, welcome to the first live performance of Reverse Draft—"
Right then, the screen in front of the rest area lit up, with the host's excited and enthusiastic voice clearly broadcasting!
"God He! God He! God He!"
"Xie Shiyun, Xie Shiyun!"
"Gu Zhan, Gu Zhan, son, mommy loves you!"
"Lu Minglan! I will always support you!"
"Su Chengxi, soar bravely!"
"..."
The live audience erupted in deafening cheers, with over half being supporters of He Suyan.
```
The "Emperor of Actors," truly the top in popularity, no bluff.
Once the live broadcast room opened, it immediately exploded with fans flooding in from all directions, surpassing a million online viewers in just five minutes, with the number still skyrocketing.
[Where's the camera? Cut to God He, I'm here for God He!]
[Aww, my baby looks so handsome, that style is out of this world.]
[The first group to perform is Xia Chuwie's team? That's so unlucky, being the first one up is not a good sign.]
The barrage in the live broadcast room appeared in an instant.
At the same time, a famous blogger suddenly posted a bunch of censored photos with faces and key parts blurred out, the content was simply unbearable to see.
It shot up to the trending searches within minutes.
#CertainIdolSinger'sChaoticPersonalLifeRealHammer#
#MaleAndFemaleColleaguesIdolSinger'sImageCollapses#
In a flash, it reached the top spot on the trend list, directly pushing the Reverse Draft's first live performance down to second place.
Backstage at the venue, Jiang Chenan's agent saw the message online and her complexion drastically changed.
She knew exactly what kind of person her artist was, and immediately rushed to find Jiang Chenan in a panic.
But just one minute prior, Jiang Chenan's group had just taken the stage.
The agent's face became grim, she took out her phone, "Contact someone to delete the post immediately, notify the PR team, and at all costs, suppress the trending searches."
If this were to spread, Jiang Chenan would be finished in the entertainment industry.
As she got the news, other agents were more or less informed as well, and none of their expressions looked good.
Especially the agents of the artists in Jiang Chenan's group, their faces...
In the director's control room, the assistant director received the notification and his face instantly turned into a palette of colors.
"What happened?" Director Lin asked as he saw him approach, suddenly feeling an ominous premonition.
"You better see for yourself." The assistant director handed over his phone.
Director Lin looked at it skeptically and was like, "..."
"How did Su Yuqing find out about Jiang Chenan being into both men and women, a threesome?"
Assistant director: "..." You're focusing on the wrong thing.
"Seems like it was Su Chengxi who mentioned it?"
"..."
As Jiang Chenan took the stage to perform, the Weibo topic fermented to unprecedented heights.
It simply... exploded!
At the same time, the clip from Su Yuqing's live broadcast the first day he fell into the water was edited and shared by onlookers.
It also hit the trending searches.
[Holy crap, my eyes, I need a pair of eyes that haven't seen the photos.]
[Mom, I feel dirty!]
[I'm sorry to say, but I can't even look at Jiang Chenan's stage anymore.]
[Speaking of which, does Su Chengxi even know that Jiang Chenan plays multiplayer games?]
[Sisters above, I'm puzzled about that too.]
[She should know, she knows Jiang Chenan only lasts three seconds.]
Soon, the topic of whether or not Su Chengxi knew about Jiang Chenan's appetite for both men and women also surged to the trending searches.
Her fans couldn't keep up with emptying their bottles.
Jiang Chenan's fans were outright stunned, but many still left comments everywhere, claiming the photos were photoshopped, wanting to trust their brother.
Inside the venue, the noise was thunderous, and the stage reached its climax.
The highlight of this group was originally Xia Chuwie's, but with Su Chengxi joining in, Xia Chuwie 'voluntarily' gave it up.
Now was the moment for her and Jiang Chenan to sing with deep emotion together.
"Jiang Chenan, you are my god! Kill me, ahhhh!" screamed Jiang Chenan's fans endlessly.
"My goddess Chengxi, I'm fainting!"
"Stop howling, something's gone wrong!" a shocked audience member yelled, and the people nearby stopped in confusion.
"Look!" She lifted her phone.
