The Villainous Celebrity Wife of the CEO - Chapter 157.2

The next day at noon, Su Jishi and her entourage arrived at the airport and met up with several other guests waiting there.

To prevent flight information leak and avoid encountering ticket scalpers and lawless fans, the program group specially booked their tickets a day in advance. Luckily, it was winter and there was a snowstorm in Xinjiang recently, so there were too few tourists choosing this time of year to travel to Xinjiang. Hence, they easily booked their tickets.

The five artists gathered in the VIP lounge, each wrapped up tightly, with their suitcases beside them stuffed with winter clothing.

Chen Gangyu jokingly complained, “The crew is really cruel. We’ve only been to Indonesia last month, and this month we’re heading to Xinjiang. This temperature difference is 60 degrees!”

Qin Qiu scratched his head and said, “Last time we encountered a volcanic eruption and tsunami in Indonesia, this time we won’t encounter an avalanche in Koktokay, right?”

“Child, don’t talk nonsense eh!” Wei Jing, who was originally closing his eyes for rest, was so frightened that he quickly opened his eyes, folded his hands and nervously paid tribute to the sky, “God bless us. God bless us. I’m working hard to earn milk powder money, and must go home to see my wife, safe and sound!”

Unfortunately, there was no God above his head, only a bright shining light, a blinding light.

Yan Changhui calmly sipped his tea and teased him, “Teacher Wei Jing, I remember that after the last shooting, you said to the crew that you absolutely want to quit and never come back, didn’t you?”

Wei Jing laughed and said shamelessly, “At that time, how could I have thought that this show would explode in traffic? Fortunately, I didn’t quit. Otherwise, my wife would definitely have been furious.”

Wei Jing’s wife was his agent, and she had stayed home since she was eight months pregnant. Now that their baby was half a year old, she had also come out to continue her activities. Wei Jing was able to take on the variety show “Wilderness Winner” all because of her wife’s wide network and grand prestige.

Speaking of program traffic, Chen Gangyu came to the spirit and dragged her sofa chair towards the group.

She said, “Have you heard that after the second episode aired, many artists’ studios asked the station for news of the second season?”

She winked at Su Jishi and said quietly, “I got news that Xu Yadan’s agent is contacting the Vice President of the station to get a contract for the second season. Moreover, the pay she offered is particularly low.”

Who in the circle didn’t know that Su Jin and Xu Yadan were at odds? This kind of discord was not only between the artists, between the company, but also between the fans.

When the two of them first started out, their routes were similar, and they were dubbed the Four Little Flowers by the media. However, after so many years of development, Su Jin had long been sitting on the throne of the traffic Queen, steadily pressing Xu Yadan’s head. It was that Su Jin had thousands of anti-fans, 70% of whom were Xu Yadan’s only fans.

Now Xu Yadan wanted to go after the cake in Su Jin’s plate, even at the expense of lowering her own reward, with naked intentions.

After hearing this, Su Jishi felt no waves deep inside. She raised her eyelids lazily and said, “Let her take it if she can.”

This program was one season a year. Su Jin would quit the entertainment industry around this time next year, so she couldn’t care less who the card would land in the second season. Be it Xu Yadan, Liu Yadan, or Wang Yadan had nothing to do with her.

However, her reply meant something else to other ears.

——Look at Su Jin’s aura! She doesn’t even take Xu Yadan’s provocation seriously!

But thinking about it carefully, she was right. Su Jin alone brought in all the traffic of this show. Who would have thought that the seemingly weak Su Jin could actually make a hammer dance vigorously as the breeze? No matter how tough the conditions were and how tricky the tasks were, she solved them smoothly.

The third episode hadn’t aired yet. The essence of their trip to Indonesia —— in short, the natural disaster —— was all concentrated on the third episode. Once that period was broadcasted, it was expected that the show’s viewership ratings and network topic discussion intensity would definitely usher in a new peak!

What was the record breaking 1.5% on the first episode, and 2.5% on the second one? With Su Jin in, they wouldn’t be surprised if the show ended up breaking 5%.

Su Jin was the core of Wilderness Winner. Without Su Jin, there would be no Wilderness Winner. Even if Xu Yadan’s pay was low, so what? What the TV station wanted was traffic, topicality, and appeal. In front of these figures, Su Jin’s appearance fee of tens of millions was nothing.

The other four artists looked at each other and formed a firm conviction in their minds —— this recording, they must hold on to Su Jin’s thighs. Where she goes, they will follow. They must try their best to get screen time; they definitely couldn’t be replaced in the second season!

Su Jishi was naturally in the dark about the calculations in their minds.

She didn’t care about other people’s comments. She lowered her head and concentrated on her phone screen. Had someone glanced sideways, they would have found that she was playing a game.

As an artist, the majority of their time wasn’t actually consumed in the work, but on the road.

With such long hours, some artists would take time to rest; others would take time to read books and scripts, while others would spend their time playing games.

Su Jishi had always been a game insulator, and the last game she played was Super Mario in elementary school. She had always believed that if she had time to play games, she might as well read more books and write more lines of papers.

Xiao Xia felt that her life was too tight and tried to give her some interesting games.

One was dressing up —— Su Jishi: “Your character has grown six arms and four legs, wearing a Japanese girl’s uniform, wearing a masquerade mask, with an ancient lady’s hairdo, a round of Buddha’s light on top of her head, and two pairs of wings on her back, with cats, dogs, birds and snakes lying under her feet, a Food Chain…How can you still get an S rating when you’re all mixed up like this?”

One was MOBA matchmaking —— Su Jishi: “Is this game an online game or an online scolding game? You might as well let Ashan play this game. He needs to raise his threshold for swear words and don’t always go b-e-e-p.”

One was sandbox shooting —— Su Jishi: “Eat chicken? How many boiled chicken breasts have I eaten and you still let me eat chicken? Not eating, out-out-out-out.”
