"Reserved? What do you mean?"
Li Wanxuan was really puzzled, but Mr. Shi, who had already participated in the show once, already looked ugly.
He had a hunch that his wife would explode if she heard the explanation.
I was going to change the subject first, "Wanxuan, I just saw a painting..."
"Shut up first," Li Wanxuan looked at the twinkling eyes of the person in front of her. She couldn't see anything fishy in it, so she interrupted her husband directly, "Go on."
"That's it, Mr. Li." The person Li Wanxuan was staring at couldn't help but raise his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead. Although he was considered a celebrity in the world of calligraphy and painting, it depended on who was standing in front of him. Li Wanxuan and Li The gentleman was the insurmountable mountain in front of him. At this moment, he could only curse the contestant who was using connections in his heart and replied bravely, "There is a contestant who will directly parachute into the program team. We were originally going to Choose six works from these works, now just choose five."
As soon as the words fell, the spacious room suddenly fell into deathly silence.
Another reviewer saw that the atmosphere was not right, so he quickly took out his mobile phone and sent a message.
After a while, the chief director of the calligraphy and painting section of the program hurried over.
"Old Shi, Mr. Li, please come here early in the morning!"
Li Wanxuan watched expressionlessly as he came in and walked up to her to say hello respectfully. Then she chuckled, and her voice even sounded gentle.
Just when everyone was about to breathe a sigh of relief, she raised her hand and clicked on the works hanging around, and asked word by word: "Is this fair to these children's works if the director does this?"
The atmosphere solidified again.
The director did not dare to look in the direction Li Wanxuan pointed at, "This...Mr. Li, this is a program after all, and the program team also has to consider the number of views. The higher the number of views, the higher the popularity of the program. The airborne contestant He is a star, and I am also proficient in calligraphy and painting, but I am very busy with work, so I can't produce any works at the moment. For this kind of special contestant, the program team has relaxed the conditions as appropriate, and I hope you can understand."
Li Wanxuan listened to his explanation carefully and sneered back.
The other two commentators may accept this explanation and understand the airborne player's last resort.
But she didn't accept it.
"Busy at work, this is a good excuse, but who is not busy at work? There are so many works that have been sent in these days. It is impossible for everyone to be a professional calligrapher and painter. How can they find time? To paint a work, a big star like him can’t spare just this little time?”
"It's just for the sake of convenience and taking shortcuts. You just agreed to it just for the popularity brought by the celebrity. There is no principle at all!"
The director blushed.
Li Wanxuan saw that he had no words to refute, and she knew that she had guessed correctly, and she became more and more disappointed.
She only learned about the program "Heritage" through her husband. She had also watched the previous Go episode and thought it was pretty good, so she accepted the invitation to be a special commentator on this episode of calligraphy and painting.
Who would have known that before the recording of the show even started, the program team would start making trouble in front of her.
Thinking of this, she lowered her head and looked at the nameplate on her clothes representing the special reviewer of "Legendary".
She still remembered the anticipation she felt when she put the little sign on her body.
The old man found several rising stars in the Go world through the previous program, and even roped the best ones into the Go Association.
Naturally, she also wanted to see if there were any good talents, so that she could bring them to their calligraphy and painting association for good training.
But she didn't expect that a program could be so dirty!
Seeing this, Mr. Shi secretly said something bad and grabbed his wife's hand before she could take off the small sign and throw it in the face of the director opposite.
"Wanxuan, come with me."
The three people who stayed in the room watched the couple go out, looked at each other and smiled bitterly.
They have finally seen the nobility and innocence of pure literati.
But they are just the opposite, profit comes first.
"I hope Mr. Shi can persuade Mr. Li. When Mr. Li comes back later, please help the two of you to talk."
The two commentators had no choice but to nod.
They have to be able to persuade this!
"Why, do you think what the director said is right?"
Li Wanxuan saw that her husband didn't want her to give up the show, and she became cold-hearted.
Shi Lao felt bitter in his heart, and said earnestly despite his wife's cold eyes: "Wanxuan, this is your first time to participate in this kind of program, and you don't understand. In fact, nowadays, all major and small programs are similar. We are still a national channel, come out One star player is rare.”
"I can't stand it anyway. Why don't I quit the head office just because I haven't started recording yet?"
"No. To be honest, as far as the Go chapter in the last issue was concerned, there were no stars in the entertainment industry who were proficient in Go. Later, it was just a coincidence that I found Jiang Xiaoyou in the last episode, so there were more stars when the show started. Popularity. The views of the previous shows without Jiang Xiaoyou are indeed quite low. I think the director must have taken this into consideration. Their primary goal as a program producer is to attract more people to watch his program. This is just like you have to draw your own well. It’s the same with every work. We also have to be considerate and considerate of him, right?”
Li Wanxuan's expression softened a bit, but she still insisted: "Then we have to follow the rules. Does being a star mean that we can be special? Is what he does fair to other players?"
"But if you quit the show, what if the show team favors him because he is a star? Then give him more scenes. If you stay, at least until you are on stage, the show team will not care about you and will not care about you. Dare to go too far.”
After saying this, Li Wanxuan really hesitated.
Seeing how much the director compromised for a star today, what the old man said is really not impossible.
Now it is unfair to other contestants to reserve a spot in advance. If they don't have any shots when they get to the stage, then those children who have worked hard to draw and participate in the show will probably be matched with the star in the end.
Just thinking about it makes me angry!
"No, I can't let the program team do whatever they want!"
Seeing his wife turn around and angrily go back, Mr. Shi breathed a sigh of relief.
His wife has a tough personality, but fortunately he is quite tactful.

The crew of "Empress Yuan Zhao".
Just after filming a scene, Jiang Lingxi raised her hand to stop the props team when they were about to take away the pens, inks, paper, inkstones and other props in front of her.
"I'll use these again. It'll only take half an hour."
"Okay, I'll come back and clean up after half an hour."
"Thank you, sorry for the trouble. By the way, I'll use this piece of paper and take it away with me later."
The staff member hurriedly waved their hands and said, "Teacher Jiang, you're welcome. It's just a piece of paper. You can bring more."
"After all, it is the property of the crew, so I have to tell you."
The staff walked away cheerfully.
When he passed by the monitor, he was stopped again, and Wei Xiao waved to him.
"When you put away the pens, inks, paper and inkstones later, bring me the rice paper that the heroine used."
He really couldn't believe that he couldn't get a piece of writing written by Jiang Lingxi!
"Ah, director, I'm afraid that won't work."
"how?"
"Teacher Jiang said she would take it away by herself after she finished writing it."
Wei Xiao: "..."
After waving his hand to ask the staff to leave, he looked in Jiang Lingxi's direction and fell into deep thought.
In the past, this girl never took away the things she had written or painted on the set because the plot required it. She kept her own things and the crew's things too separate. Why did she suddenly have to take them away by herself this time?
Could it be that he knew he wanted to use it and keep it secretly?
