This Star Doesn’t Work Overtime

  Chapter 82 81. It's really hard to serve! Don't come if the ratings are not ideal...

  Wang Cheng was the last one to enter the arena, and when he arrived, he sat down and read a book as if no one else was there.

  Many people looked strange when they saw this.

  Jiang Fan, who had just been sitting on the judges' seat, stared at Wang Cheng for a while, then turned his gaze to Xiao Daohong who was not far away from Wang Cheng.

  Xiao Daohong is his junior in the same company. He hopes that Xiao Daohong will bring a wonderful performance. He can properly give Xiao Daohong a higher score so that Xiao Daohong can continue to maintain his current No. 1 position in the program group.

  As for Han Xiao next to Jiang Fan, he stared intently at Wang Cheng, with stars almost popping out of his eyes, like a little fan girl.

  Zhou Yu patted Han Xiao's arm and reminded: "Han Xiao, we're going to shoot later, pay attention to maintaining your image in front of the camera!"

  Han Xiao nodded, and looked away from Wang Cheng: "Of course I know, it's no problem! But, Wang Cheng is really handsome..."

  Zhou Yu raised his forehead, feeling a little helpless, then glanced at Wang Cheng and quickly retracted his gaze—it is indeed handsome, especially with that temperament that almost beats all the traffic stars by a few blocks!

  The two men Jiang Fan and Wang Zijun next to each other felt a little uncomfortable after hearing their conversation. Could these two people not see themselves? In front of them, he kept praising the king Cheng Shuai, did he care about their feelings?

  cough cough...

   Wang Zijun coughed twice, reminding Han Xiao to pay attention to the situation.

  At this time, director Wu Tong took the walkie-talkie and shouted: "Start..."

  In the auditorium, more than a hundred spectators have already taken their seats, waving support cards in their hands towards the stage, most of which have the names of Xiao Daohong and Chen Hao written on them, and occasionally the names of Huang Bin and others.

  The host stepped onto the stage and started today's work.

  Under the stage, many trainees became slightly nervous.

  Xiao Daohong looked at Wang Cheng who was not far away, and saw that Wang Cheng was still sitting there reading a book, as if he didn't care about the upcoming performance, and said helplessly: "His mentality is really good!"

  The accompanying agent Li Lin had already communicated with Mo Jinhua to fully understand Wang Cheng's news, and said in a low voice: "He was like this when he was in the Oriental Star program group, no one can do anything to him!"

  Xiao Daohong nodded and didn't care about it. He just started to adjust his state and prepare for today's performance.

  He is the second to play.

  At this time, the first team to appear has already started to prepare for the performance.

  Wang Cheng sat between Huang Bin and Chen Xiaoyong, took a sip of water from the thermos, glanced at the performance on the stage, and said softly: "It's not bad."

   Then, he continued to read this domestic fairy tale novel. The setting is average and the plot of the characters is average, but it is better than nothing.

  After hearing Wang Cheng's evaluation, Huang Bin and Mo Bailin said, "Being able to get your affirmation shows that they have some strength!"

  Mo Bailin and several other teammates glanced at Huang Bin—Captain, your licking is a bit obvious.

  Chen Xiaoyong said: "The performance of this team has indeed improved a lot compared to before. The dance is obviously better. It should be the effect of changing the dancing fingers, and the stage layout is also better than before."

Sun Gang nodded lightly: "I know the dancers of their team. They are indeed not weak, and they are well-known in the industry. However, there are also people who obviously imitate Wang Cheng's dance style. But, it is actually worse than the performance of Oriental Star. One point, the stage level of the two episodes of Oriental Star can be said to be the ceiling of talent shows in recent years."

   Chen Xiaoyong nodded in agreement with Sun Gang's words.

   This is already a consensus in the industry.

The first two episodes of Oriental Star really raised the standard of traffic variety show shows to a higher level, setting a benchmark for other shows, especially the episode where Wang Cheng performed Jingwumen, which was the ceiling of traffic variety show performances. in the ceiling.

   It's a pity that this benchmark is about to fall now.

  The performance of the first group on the stage was good, with no mistakes in the whole process, and finally got an average score of 85 from the four judges, which is considered a high score.

  The second one is Xiao Daohong's appearance. This is the order of appearance carefully arranged by the program group, so there is no need to bear the pressure of being the first to appear on the stage.

  Xiao Daohong and the others are also a relatively dynamic piece of music, which can be regarded as the standard style of music for stage performances. It is imitating the style of Jingwumen performed by Wang Cheng last time.

The dancing skills of the few people are not weaker than Wu Han's team at all. It's just that they have been salted fish for many episodes before, and they have not been passively introverted for a few episodes like Wu Han. Daohong and the others only changed to a gold medal dancer in this episode, so Xiao Daohong and his team's state and sense of stage are a little weaker than Wu Han's team.

  Wang Cheng raised his eyes and looked at it for a dozen seconds, then continued to read.

  Huang Bin asked curiously: "Wang Cheng, what do you think of them?"

  Wang Cheng didn't raise his eyes, and replied lightly: "It's okay!"

   It’s not bad, it seems to be similar to the evaluation of the first team?

  Huang Bin and Mo Bailin once again added more confidence. When they looked at Xiao Daohong and the others, they no longer had the pressure and envy of the previous episodes.

  Finally, Xiao Daohong and the others ended the performance without making any mistakes. They were well received by the four judges, with an average score of 91 points!

  The next few groups of performances also showed a good level. They were all trainees carefully trained by major companies, and they spent money on training for one or two years.

  Director Wu Tong and producer Fang Xueshu watched together, with a smile on their faces.

   "This episode's performance is much more exciting than the previous one."

  Fang Xueshu admired: "Sure enough, only with input can there be output."

  Wu Tong nodded: "That's right! This is the resource we obtained after contacting their company several times one by one. Improvement is inevitable. It depends on whether Wang Cheng's performance can meet expectations..."

Fang Xueshu looked at the contestant's bench not far away. Wang Cheng, who was sitting there reading seriously, seemed out of place with all the other trainees around him, and even with the entire program group. His facial muscles twitched, and he asked curiously: "What book is he reading?"

  Wu Tong: "It seems like a novel!"

  Fang Xueshu shook his head: "He is really an outlier. If possible, I really don't like to cooperate with such an outlier."

  Wu Tong said helplessly, "Who isn't?"

  In the entertainment circle, every director and producer doesn't like to cooperate with people who don't follow the routine, because there are too many unexpected factors, and if one goes wrong, all the hard work may be wasted.

  Fang Xueshu stopped talking, knowing that such words should not be said casually, otherwise it would be bad for Wang Cheng's ears.

   Afterwards, several groups of contestants went on stage and finished the performance smoothly. The scores were not low, all around 80.

   It was half past twelve.

  Wu Tong took out the walkie-talkie and said: "Adjust the order, Wang Cheng and Huang Bin will play first, and let Chen Hao and the others play last!"

  The assistant director on the walkie-talkie asked in surprise: "Why? This disordered order is prone to problems..."

Wu Tong still said helplessly, "It's half past twelve, and Wang Cheng is going to get off work at one o'clock! If he is not allowed to perform first, what should he do when Chen Hao's performance is over and he leaves work without performing? He On the Eastern Star stage, he did the same thing, and Wu Lei was so angry that he almost threw something."

   "Let him perform first, and it doesn't matter if Chen Hao is a little later. I promised him that."

  The assistant director on the walkie-talkie also fell silent, and then replied speechlessly: "Okay, I see, I will inform you!"

   Fang Xueshu didn't know what to say for a while.

A program group made such concessions to a trainee contestant. It was the first time he saw it, and he saw it in his own program group, which made him feel a little embarrassed. He would be embarrassed to see his peers when he went out in the future. I looked at Wang Cheng who was sitting there reading a book not far away, and thought to myself—if the ratings are not satisfactory, don’t come to the next issue, I really can’t afford to wait.

  A staff member came to the contestant's booth and informed Chen Hao: "Chen Hao, I'm sorry, your team will postpone it for a while, and you can come on after the performance of Huang Bin's team is over!"

  Chen Hao and his agent Hu Zhiqiang looked at the staff in surprise, a little caught off guard.

   They're getting ready to go on stage...

  The result was delayed, making them suddenly unstable.

  Broker Hu Zhiqiang immediately asked: "Why? This is an order that was set in advance. How can we change it later? This will have a great impact on our state."

  The staff smiled apologetically: "I don't know either, the director informed me, sorry."

   After finishing speaking, the staff pointed to their watches vaguely to Chen Hao and Hu Zhiqiang, and then went to inform Wang Cheng and Huang Bin that they were going to go on stage.

  Chen Hao and Hu Zhiqiang froze for a moment, then subconsciously looked at the time on the phone, half past twelve?

What's the meaning?

After all, Hu Zhiqiang learned about Wang Cheng's information in detail through various channels, and immediately said: "Oh, I know, Wang Cheng leaves work at one o'clock. The program team was afraid of delaying Wang Cheng's get off work, so they asked them to perform on stage in advance. put us in the end..."

   After finishing speaking, Hu Zhiqiang's face was a little ugly. He had secretly mocked the program group's concession to Wang Cheng before, but he didn't expect this concession to sacrifice them.

  Chen Hao and his teammates are younger, and their emotions are directly expressed on their faces.

   "Why did you do this to us?"

   A teammate muttered dissatisfiedly.

  Chen Hao's face was not good-looking, but he kept silent and did not speak. He just stared hard at Wang Cheng who was not far away, and then said: "It's okay, it's only ten minutes, we can make more adjustments..."

  However, several teammates are obviously still dissatisfied.

  The staff over there said cautiously to Wang Cheng: "Wang Cheng, you are going to perform on stage right away, get ready."

  Wang Cheng who was reading a book, Huang Bin next to him, and Mo Bailin were all stunned, and looked at the staff with slight doubts.

   Aren't they the last show?

  Chen Hao and the others haven't appeared on stage yet?

  The staff explained to Wang Cheng: "The director is afraid of delaying your off-duty time, so let you perform a group in advance and prepare."

  Wang Cheng nodded, accepting this, immediately put down the book, put on the mask, stood up, and prepared to go on stage.

  Huang Bin and Mo Bailin quickly followed Wang Cheng to stand up, tidied their clothes, and prepared to perform on stage. There was a hint of surprise on their faces.

   "Wang Cheng, you really have a reputation. In order not to delay your get off work, the program team changed the order of performances. This is the first time I have seen it."

   Huang Bin said to Wang Cheng.

  Wang Cheng smiled and said nothing. He didn't care about these things. This is what the program group promised, and it should be done.

  Mo Bailin and the others all looked slightly excited, feeling the attention from the program group for the first time.

The camera also showed them, and I saw that all of them were dressed in black, which was similar to a tunic suit, a little loose, and the two buttons on the neckline were open, revealing the white shirts they were wearing inside. Standing together, they looked a little Solemn, like the old underworld movies.

  The performance on the stage also officially ended. The judges gave a score of 79 points, and then they walked down one after another. Several people looked at Wang Cheng and the others with envy.

  All eyes were on Wang Cheng and the others on stage!

  Everyone in the program group, all the trainees on the contestants' seats, and the four judges all watched closely Wang Cheng and the others on stage.
