The straight man in the entertainment circle

Lin Li, Wang Zhilong, Fang Tiantian, Liu Yizhou and others were sitting at Ye Mingming's home, watching their 55-inch LCD TV.

What was playing on the TV was the finals of "The Masked Singer" on Lychee Channel.

In the trailer the day before, Hei Wuchang appeared vaguely, full of mystery, but this time the show has already started broadcasting, so the program team naturally didn't hide it so much.

The highlight of this episode at the beginning of "The Masked Singer" is the clear and attractive picture of Hei Wuchang's appearance.

Seeing Hei Wuchang's appearance, none of the people sitting here expected it.

They leaned closer to the TV and stared at Hei Wuchang slowly appearing inside. Ye Mingming slapped his thigh and shouted: "Go, why did Bai Wuchang become Hei Wuchang!"

Ye Shuang stood up excitedly and moved closer to the TV. Unfortunately, the highlight of this episode where Hei Wuchang appeared was over.

"How is that possible! Where is my sister Bai Wuchang!" Ye Shuang shouted excitedly at the TV, as if the TV could hear her question.

On the TV, the program has started.

"What's going on with Hei Wuchang?" Ye Shuang looked at Lin Li and the others and asked. She thought they were celebrities and often participated in variety shows, so they should understand.

"It must be Bai Wuchang, who changed his clothes." Wang Zhilong said.

"It's probably because I changed my clothes. This show only allows one look. I remembered that Bai Wuchang had exposed some black sleeves before. I think it's because Bai Wuchang's back is Hei Wuchang's. This time he's wearing the back. .”

Lin Li glanced at Fang Tiantian and thought that she wasn't that stupid.

The show hasn't even started yet, so everyone naturally felt that Fang Tiantian's analysis made sense, and they were even more curious about the fact that while others cost money to sing, I sang to death.

"Okay, why change to black Wuchang? It doesn't look good, but white Wuchang looks better." Ye Shuang said a little disappointed.

"Don't worry, you'll understand when Hei Wuchang appears. It's definitely not for no reason." Wang Zhilong said.

Fang Tiantian smiled and said: "I didn't expect Bai Wuchang to have another hand. It should look good tonight."

"Don't think about it, Hei Wuchang will definitely be the last one to appear." The hostess Yang Linjuan also knew the routine of the show and said.

Ye Shuang became a little impatient and said, "I'm so anxious, why don't I let Bai Bai...Sister Buhei Wuchang come out!"

Ye Mingming said: "Now it seems that she is not necessarily my sister."

"I don't believe it! It can't be a man!" Ye Shuang almost jumped.

Wang Zhilong said: "Looking at his figure just now, he might be a male singer."

Fang Tiantian immediately shook her head: "Impossible, haven't you seen the previous episodes? How can it be a male singer!"

Liu Yizhou also said: "Indeed, he doesn't sound like a male singer."

Wang Zhilong participated in a lot of variety shows and also played shows. He said, "Why don't we play a game?"

"What game?" Liu Yizhou asked.

At this time, what was playing on the program was Xiaoquanquan singing.

Wang Zhilong thought for a while and said: "Let's guess whether this Bai Wuchang or Hei Wuchang is a boy or girl. The one who guesses correctly can make the one who guesses wrong do something within his power."

After Wang Zhilong finished speaking, Fang Tiantian immediately said: "Okay!"

Fang Tiantian thought to herself that if she was right and Lin Li was wrong, then Lin Li must apologize to her!

Liu Yizhou and Fang Tiantian had similar thoughts and said, "Okay."

Ye Shuang also shouted: "Okay, I will join too!"

What Ye Shuang thought was that if he was right and Lin Li was wrong, he would let Princess Lin Li hug him!

Thinking about it, Ye Shuang couldn't stop laughing.

Seeing them both playing, Ye Mingming and his wife naturally agreed to play.

Everyone had expressed their stance, except Lin Li. Everyone looked at Lin Li.

Lin Li felt so funny in his heart that he didn't dare to say it when playing other games. Guess who this Black and White Wuchang was, no one in the world knew better than himself.

"Okay, I'll play."

Fang Tiantian was the first to ask: "Lin Li, tell me first, do you think he is a boy or a girl?"

The reason why Fang Tiantian asked Lin Li to speak first was to be different from Lin Li. Only in this way could she be able to make mistakes for Lin Li and get Lin Li to apologize.

Of course, it's possible that Lin Li was right and he was wrong, but that didn't matter. After all, there was still a half chance of winning.

"I don't know." Lin Li said.

Fang Tiantian said: "I don't know, I can just say something."

Lin Li smiled and said, "I really don't know."

Liu Yizhou smiled and said, "If you don't guess, you will be revealed later, whether you are a man or a woman, you will lose."

"Then if we guess correctly, you can't go back on what we ask you to do!" Wang Zhilong said.

"Okay, I won't regret it." Lin Li said.

Fang Tiantian was overjoyed. If Lin Li guessed, there was still a half chance that he would be right. If he didn't guess now, he would be 100% wrong. He still had a half chance of being right.

This is really God helping me!

Fang Tiantian immediately said: "Then I guess it's a woman!"

"I guess it's a man." Wang Zhilong said.

Liu Yizhou said: "I guess it's a woman."

Ye Shuang was also very happy. She and Fang Tiantian wanted the same thing, but they wanted to do different things to Lin Li after victory.

"I guess it's a man." Ye Shuang said.

Everyone was a little curious, and Ye Mingming asked: "Don't you think it's a woman?"

Yang Linjuan also said: "Why did you change your mind?"

Ye Shuang smiled and said: "I haven't changed my mind. I do think Bai Wuchang is a woman, but I guess she is a man. If I guess wrong and she is indeed a woman, then I won't be sad, but if I guess right Well, Bai Wuchang is a boy, so I will be a little sad, but because I guessed it right, I can let Lin Li comfort me, so I guess it is a boy, that is, no matter whether Bai Wuchang is a boy or a girl in the end, I Everyone will be happy!"

When everyone heard this, they realized that Ye Shuang actually had such an idea, not to mention he was really smart.

"Ha, you girl is so smart." Wang Zhilong praised.

Everyone laughed.

Lin Li smiled, but there was one thing he didn't say, that is, no matter how smart he was, he still guessed wrong. If his face would not be revealed tonight, they still would not know who this person was.

"You can use your intelligence and energy on your studies!" Yang Linjuan spat, "I guess it's a girl."

Ye Mingming: "I guess it's a man."

After everyone finished guessing, the first guest, Eat Me A Little Fist, had finished singing and started to reveal his face.

"It's easy to guess, it must be Li Rui." Wang Zhilong said.

"When you put it like that, it really might be the case." Liu Yizhou said that they had seen clips of Bai Wuchang, but they had never watched "The Masked Singer". It was their first time watching "My Little Punch".

However, Wang Zhilong, who is familiar with the entertainment industry, still guessed it.

The one who finally revealed his face was really Li Rui.

When the show was broadcast, it was much simpler than when it was recorded. Lin Li remembered that during the recording, Li Rui chatted with the judges for a long time after revealing his face, but in the show, only two or three minutes of more funny clips were cut.

Then the second person to appear was My Golden House and Yan Ruyu disappeared. This time, Fang Tiantian, Wang Zhilong and Liu Yizhou both guessed it. After singing the song, the person who came out was the Cao Hanwen they guessed.

They both guessed correctly, making them all confident and felt that Bai Wuchang's guess was also correct.

The third person to appear was Agent Ouchi, singing "Sour, Sweet, and Sweet Is Me."

After she appeared, Ye Shuang was obviously a little excited and said, "Ah, she actually sang this song! Can you guess who she is when you listen to this person singing?"

Wang Zhilong listened for a while, shook his head and said: "I can't guess, I have heard this song before. It seems to be your song, Lin Li?"

Lin Li nodded.

"You have a pretty good figure." Fang Tiantian looked at her round figure with envy.

"He doesn't seem to be a professional singer, and his breath is not that stable." Liu Yizhou said.

Ayu's singing is pretty good among ordinary people, and she can do it as a host with the help of equipment, but it is not as good as a real singer. Fortunately, some modifications will be made when the program is broadcast. Ayu sang this song "Sour and Sweet" "Sweetness is Me" is quite acceptable.

Ye Shuang asked Lin Li, "Brother Lin Li, do you know who this is?"

Lin Li smiled and said, "Of course I know."

Ye Mingming said: "Is it the Wu Hebing who competed with you?"

Before Lin Li could answer, Ye Shuang teased: "Hey, Dad, you also know Wu Ruobing."

Ye Mingming glanced at Ye Shuang: "If you have a girl who is half as well-behaved, I will thank God."

Lin Li smiled. Wu Ruobing was considered well-behaved in front of others, but in front of herself, she was not at all well-behaved.

Ye Shuang wanted to defend, but Lin Li was here, as if saying that he was better than Wu Ruobing was not that good, so he held back and just said: "Oh, why are you getting further and further away from me? Now I want you to guess who this Ouchi spy is! "

Everyone said they couldn't guess it.

Ye Shuang was very proud and said, "I knew you couldn't guess that this is Ayu."

"Who is Ayu?" Yang Linjuan asked.

Others also looked at Ye Shuang, obviously not knowing either.

"Ayu is an online anchor who broadcasts live to Lin Li. He is very popular." Ye Shuang looked at Lin Li and said, "Of course, it is also because of Lin Li that he became popular."

Although everyone didn't know Ayu, after all, they were not the audience of online anchors, but after hearing what Ye Shuang said, they understood.

Wang Zhilong and Liu Yizhou are really envious of Lin Li. Even if he becomes famous, some people close to him will also become popular. This kind of influence is really only possessed by some kings and queens.

They didn't know about the others, but the two people in Lin Li's band who sang harmonies for Lin Li had over a million Weibo fans.

The show passed slowly while everyone was chatting and watching. They also felt that it was lucky that everyone watched it together and chatted. Otherwise, it would have been quite painful to watch the show alone and wait for Hei Wuchang to appear at the end.

After all, other people really have nothing to watch.

Several people were chatting for who knows how long. Suddenly everyone became quiet and looked at the TV.

On TV, Qing Kong, the sixth singer of "The Masked Singer", revealed his identity and left the stage.

"Coming, coming." Fang Tiantian sat up straight, a little excited.

Everyone else also sat up straight and stopped talking.

In the show, the host Li Hao walked onto the stage.

Li Hao introduced the guest who was about to appear, exaggerated the mystery of this guest, and joked that the judging panel had been unable to guess correctly.

The atmosphere of the show suddenly became cheerful, and everyone felt that this was the right way to open "The Masked Singer"!

"In the last episode, others sang for money and I sang for my life. This gave everyone a chance to guess once in this episode, but the opportunity is not given in vain. If you guess the judges, you seven will still not be able to guess our guest tonight. As for my identity, then... the program team has decided that if someone else sings for money and I sing for my life, I will not reveal my identity today!"

After Li Hao said this, the judging panel and the audience were stunned. Even the other seven people in front of the TV, except Lin Li, looked completely in disbelief.

"Huh? Don't reveal your face?"

"No reveal in the finals? Impossible."

"Just kidding, the show is effective."

"Yes, if you don't reveal your face, the show will be over. Bai Wuchang's trip will be in vain."

"Look, it won't happen."

Seeing them like this, Lin Li could definitely imagine what the audience across the country would look like when they saw this. They would probably look like this.

In the show, the guessing judges behaved similarly to them and asked Li Hao whether it was true or not.

"Really, the director told me before the show started, and the guest himself agreed." Li Haodao.

The judges still expressed disbelief. It would be meaningless for guests to participate in this show without revealing their faces. After all, singers come here to increase their exposure. If you don’t reveal your faces, who knows who you are, no matter how tall you are. Popularity is useless.

"Don't tell me, although these guessing teams were quite unreliable in the past, since Bai Wuchang appeared, at least when they met Bai Wuchang, what they said was true to our concern."

Ye Shuang listened to the guessing team's questions and got to the point, and he began to recognize the performance of the guessing team.

"Yes, this is what they should really do. I always thought they were acting," Yang Linjuan said.

Ye Mingming said: "You guys are serious, there are not enough variety shows nowadays."

Yang Linjuan glared at Ye Mingming, and Ye Mingming realized that these four people in the family were also regulars on variety shows.

"Ah, I'm sorry, I'm not talking about you." Ye Mingming hurriedly apologized.

Wang Zhilong laughed and said: "Sometimes it's not that I want to act, it's the program team's request."

"Yeah, it's all work." Liu Yizhou said.

There are no cameras now, so since this topic has come up, there is no need for them to deny it.

Fang Tiantian said: "Hey, our business is quite difficult."

Fang Tiantian was used to being miserable. Just after she finished speaking, she suddenly remembered that Lin Li was still there and glanced at him secretly.

Lin Li smiled disdainfully and said nothing.

Fortunately, at this time in the show, Li Hao began to explain to the guessing judges and changed everyone's topic.

"If no one has guessed correctly in this episode, then our guest will perform the final performance and reveal his face at the Lychee Terrace Spring Festival Gala one week after the show is broadcast, that is, on the night of the first day of the Lunar New Year!"

On the TV, after Li Hao finished explaining, the scene was a bit uproar, and the people in front of the TV were also dumbfounded.

"Can you still play like this?!" Ye Mingming laughed.

Ye Shuang was very angry and said: "Ah ah ah, why do you have to wait a week!"

"That's if you don't guess correctly this time. If you guess correctly, you don't have to wait." Yang Linjuan said.

Ye Shuang reacted and said oh, then suddenly laughed and said: "Actually, it doesn't matter if you don't guess right, you can watch another one on the night of the first day of the new year... So tonight, no matter whether the guessing team guesses correctly or not, it doesn't matter Yes, I can be happy."

Lin Li felt that Ye Shuang was very optimistic and could always find reasons to comfort himself. This was also the case when playing games before.

"It seems that Bai Wuchang is very important to Lychee TV, and they will let him perform again at the Spring Festival Gala even if they change the rules of the program." Wang Zhilong analyzed.

"Definitely, I have read the news, and the ratings of this program have broken the highest ratings on Lychee Channel." Liu Yizhou said.

"I saw that there were only three or four sponsors in the first episode of this show, and now there are more than ten. The number of sponsors only increased after Bai Wuchang appeared." Ye Shuang said.

"I really don't know who she is. After this reveal, the appearance fee is probably higher than us." Wang Zhilong said to Liu Yizhou.

As a variety show star, Wang Zhilong is a favorite guest type of variety shows, and the appearance fee is not outrageous, only 600,000 for one period, while Liu Yizhou only needs 500,000, and Fang Tiantian is even less, only 150,000.

Among them, only Lin Li has the highest appearance fee of 800,000, so when Wang Zhilong said this, he did not say "we" to Lin Li because he felt that after Bai Wuchang revealed his face, he might not be able to get the 800,000 appearance fee.

After all, after leaving "The Masked Singer", it's hard to say whether Bai Wuchang will still be as popular as he is now.

But compared to their own appearance fee of 500,000 to 600,000 yuan, I'm afraid it won't be much lower.

After hearing Wang Zhilong's words, Lin Li secretly laughed in his heart: "My appearance fee is higher than yours even if I don't reveal my face!"
