The Villainous Celebrity Wife of the CEO - Chapter 154.2

Chen Gangyu debuted as a member of an idol female group in her early years. After flying solo, she became semi-popular, and could only move from one idol drama group to another. Her fans, who accompanied her all the way up, were her true fans. Seeing their idol being suppressed by Su Jin, leaving her no screen time, they naturally couldn’t swallow their anger.

Meanwhile, Qin Qiu was a young, handsome teen idol with a strong soaring momentum recently. He was both talented in singing and dancing, and loved to smile. His persona was most attractive to mother fans and elder sister fans. At first, after Qin Qiu announced his participation in the program, his mothers and sisters were worried that the program group would force him to stage ‘older woman and younger man relationship’ CP. Who would have thought that the actual situation was worse than expected? Their darling and treasure Qinqin’s screen time was so little it was almost pathetic!

In a fit of anger, the hardcore fans of both sides hooked up together, ready to kill the official Weibo account for justice.

Unexpectedly, before the fans of the two sides could take action, the protagonists actually showed up and retweeted that promotional video!

Not only did they forward it, but they also seriously wrote a lengthy statement, expressing their gratitude to Su Jin!

[@qinqiuV: As the youngest member, I’ve always troubled all my seniors. Thank you Mr. Yan, Brother Weijing, and Sister Yuyu’s tolerance! And a special thanks to Sister Su. From her, I learned the true meaning of the four words courage, faith, responsibility and ability. //Repost this]

[@qinqiu’s personal warm baby: Baby Qiu??? Baby Qiu, if you are kidnapped by the show crew, just blink!!!]

[@qinqiu’s worried old mother: Did the studio post this on your behalf? Baby Qiu said in a previous interview that he rarely plays with Weibo].

[@QiuQiuQiuQiupid: Our Baby Qiu is too pitiful. His shots in the three-minutes trailer adds up to only forty seconds, and only three seconds of personal footage. The rest are for Su Jin in a palanquin!]

[@qinqiuV replied@all: I hope you don’t guess randomly. I admire Sister Su. When the volcano erupted, if she had not detected the danger in advance and decisively led everyone down the mountain, I’m afraid we would all have been buried in the sea of fire.]

[@All: ???? Wait, what plot did we miss???]

Similar conversations appeared in Chen Gangyu’s Weibo feed.

After that thrilling journey in Indonesia, Chen Gangyu had fallen under Su Jishi’s personal charm and was completely reduced to her older fan girl.

Girls chasing idols were scary! Chen Gangyu posted on Weibo, but that wasn’t enough. She posted three in a row, and each with a length of one hundred and forty words. It could be summed up as follows: “Su Jin awesome! I respect Su Jin! Su Jin sy all over! I lick-lick-lick-lick-lick-lick-lick…”

Meanwhile, the other two artists on the show also reposted their thanks. Fans and bystanders who watched this unfold were curious. Was Su Jin’s charm really so great that she could make the four artists she worked with all rave about her?

……

With such a high level of attention, in mid-January, the variety show Wilderness Winner was finally launched before the Chinese New Year.

The variety show was an outdoor variety show jointly launched by Apple Channel and Discovery Asia, drawing on the experience of similar shows and bringing in five artists to play around Asia.

Unfortunately, nobody had expected that they would run into a natural disaster, a volcanic eruption and a tsunami from the onset of the recording. The slightest carelessness would have killed them. When everyone finally returned home with great difficulty, the chief producer, chief director, plus the deputy director of the program, was immediately interviewed by the relevant leaders of the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television(SARFT).

Because the program was far more dangerous than expected, the variety show license that was so easily obtained was almost withdrawn. Needless to say, in order to keep the program, the TV station had to face all kinds of hardships. Fortunately, there was a ‘nobleman’ who helped save the program and let the show air on the screen and meet the audience on the scheduled release date.

As for who this ‘nobleman’ was…

…Su Jishi saw through it and didn’t say anything about it.

Wilderness Winner was chosen to air on Friday night in prime time, taking over an old talent variety show.

On the opening night of the first episode, Su Jishi specially invited her agency team to her home and waited in front of the TV for the show to be aired.

This was the first and possibly the last time in her life to participate in a reality show shooting. You know, this kind of outdoor reality show was very different from that kind of indoor variety show. Indoor variety shows had tableaus, and outdoor reality shows could be called a demon-revealing mirror to some extent.

There had been unpopular 18-line artists who filled in the vacancies and garnered fans from more than 100,000 to a whopping tens of millions through reality shows; there were also A-list stars who exposed their nature in front of the camera, playing big cards and losing their temper, resulting in a large number of fans turning anti-fans…

Su Jishi was curious to know what kind of ‘Su Jin’ the audience would see through this demon-revealing mirror.

Would they like the Su Jin she played?

Xiao Xia had been fidgeting, sitting around the house in circles. Ashan was sitting on the sofa eating a lot of snacks, but Fang Xie was the most relaxed one among them.

Xiao Xia asked, “Brother Fang, why are you not nervous at all?”

Fang Xie didn’t keep her in suspense and told her, “In fact, the station organized an internal viewing meeting a few days ago. The feedback of all the staff who have watched the episode is very positive. Guess, what do you think is the estimated audience rating of Apple station?”

Xiao Xia’s eyes lit up: “0.8? No, 1.0%!!!”

1.0% didn’t seem high, but in today’s world where there were more and more TV channels and network variety shows were blossoming, this number was already quite impressive. You know, Apple Channel’s 20-year old family entertainment variety show could only guarantee an average rating of 1.3% per episode!

A 1.0% rating was enough for it to compete with other stations’ prime-time programs in the same slot.

Unexpectedly, Fang Xie shook his head and announced a shocking figure: “No —— the internal forecast for it is 1.5%!”

“God, so high!!!”

“Believe in Sister Su, she deserves such high ratings.”

Under everyone’s eager anticipation, Wilderness Winner, a variety show with an extremely tortuous birth process, finally started at 8 p.m. sharp.
