Chapter 205: The Live Broadcast Room Can’t Be Saved
Originally, after the live broadcast room was split, viewers went to sub-channels they were interested in to continue watching how the guests completed missions and ate lunch.
But not long after the split, viewers from several sub-channels all jumped to Xuan Xia and Zhou Shiqing’s live broadcast room.
The live broadcast room even experienced scene lag due to too many people rushing in at once.
【Oh ho, there are so many people here. So many people.jpg】
【Family, who understands? Our side’s live broadcast room can’t be watched, so we can only come here to watch.】
【Friend, which room did you come from? I came from Song Yuhan’s room, and we can’t watch ours either.】
【Everyone’s the same, the Mysterious Flavor group can only come to this live broadcast room to watch.】
【It’s all the Program Group’s fault, setting up obstacles to make things difficult for the guests. Now look, the guests are squeezing into one car with no empty seats to bring the follow-shot young man, and even us viewers are squeezing into one live broadcast room.】
【Hahahahaha, dying of laughter, it’s really like that.】
……
Things turning out like this now has to start from the transportation work matter.
After the Program Group clearly stated they wouldn’t provide transportation, each group of guests began searching for transportation.
The mission points for the other two flavor groups seemed not too far; Xuan Xia only saw some people walking there directly on foot.
But the Southern Dock definitely couldn’t be reached by walking.
Just after leaving the recording location, Zhou Shiqing quickly took a fancy to a pickup truck parked by the roadside.
The pickup truck’s driver happened to be right by the car.
Seeing that the driver was a middle-aged islander, everyone discussed it, and Zhou Shiqing and Gu Sun stepped forward to borrow the car from that driver islander.
The follow-shot camera young man also went along to ensure viewers could see the entire borrowing process up close.
Xuan Xia and An Qi were happy for the brief time off camera; the two rested on the side while studying the island map.
An Qi even pulled out her mobile phone to search online for the merman mentioned in the mission.
Originally just trying to see if she could find anything, unexpectedly there really was relevant content online.
An Qi showed her phone to Xuan Xia: “Xuan Xia, look, so the merman refers to the mermaid.”
Xuan Xia leaned over to look.
“Online it says the merman is a local culture; because they can stay in the sea holding breath for a long time, they’re called mermen.”
“In the past, mermen mainly relied on salvaging and gathering items in the sea for a living. Now because over-gathering would destroy the ecology, there are fewer mermen; the remaining ones have become performers on the island, whose main duty is to guide divers and let divers appreciate the seabed scenery.”
After reading the online science popularization, An Qi asked Xuan Xia: “So our mission won’t require diving too, will it?”
“I think there’s a 90% chance.” Though Xuan Xia inwardly refused.
But An Qi was clearly very interested in diving, saying excitedly: “Then I’d really like to try it; I wanted to get a diving license before, but never had the opportunity.”
Because of work, she rarely got vacations, so forget getting a license; she couldn’t even go to the seaside to dive for fun.
This time with such an opportunity, An Qi of course hoped to experience it.
Seeing her excited like a little child, Xuan Xia couldn’t help but smile and say: “Then if there’s a chance later, I’ll help you fulfill that dream.”
An Qi laughed haha, “Okay, okay.”
Xuan Xia smiled and looked up to see Zhou Shiqing and Gu Sun walking back.
But from their expressions, it seemed borrowing the car hadn’t gone smoothly.
“They’re back.” An Qi also noticed their appearances, “Looks like it didn’t succeed.”
When the two got close, Xuan Xia asked: “Couldn’t borrow it?”
Both had somewhat embarrassed looks on their faces.
Xuan Xia was puzzled.
And the live broadcast room’s bullet comments were already full of hahaha; it’s just that Xuan Xia couldn’t see them.
After Zhou Shiqing and Gu Sun exchanged a glance, Gu Sun touched his nose and said awkwardly: “We overlooked a problem; the language barrier is an issue.”
Xuan Xia, An Qi: “…”
Bullet comments were all 【Hahaha】
【Look at Zhou Shiqing’s expression quick; feels like he’s already awkwardly picking at the castle.】
【Zhou Shiqing: Never been this embarrassed before.】
“We tried to communicate hard, but don’t know if that mister understood our meaning. But mainly, we didn’t understand what he was saying either.” Gu Sun braced himself and explained in detail.
Originally thought two people going together, plus two follow-shot personnel, shouldn’t be a problem, but unexpectedly, four fools didn’t produce a language master.
Xuan Xia, An Qi: “…”
【Mommy, I’m gonna laugh until I puke. Gu Sun and Zhou Shiqing’s communication failure is 100% funny; Gu Sun explaining the reason to the two misses is 10000% funny】
Zhou Shiqing didn’t want Gu Sun to keep explaining—the more he explained, the more embarrassing; he simply said straightforwardly: “Let’s find other transportation.”
Xuan Xia stopped him from rushing: “How about I try?”
“You go?” Zhou Shiqing frowned, looking unwilling to let her go.
Xuan Xia nodded, “I’ll try.” Without waiting for Zhou Shiqing to say more, she walked straight toward the pickup truck driver.
An Qi seeing this hurriedly said: “Xuan Xia, I’ll go with you.”
With the two girls gone, the follow-shot young men exchanged glances and carried their equipment to follow.
Zhou Shiqing and Gu Sun thought about it and followed along too.
Thus, just three minutes later, Xuan Xia not only borrowed a pickup truck but also a driver.
At this point, Xuan Xia and Zhou Shiqing’s, as well as An Qi and Gu Sun’s two live broadcast channels were extremely lively.
Bullet comments were all worshiping Xuan Xia’s language communication ability.
Many viewers who followed all along suddenly remembered Xuan Xia had a top student persona; there hadn’t been a chance to see her shine before, but now that she did, viewers were shouting 666.
And after Xuan Xia communicated, they learned the driver had understood Zhou Shiqing and their meaning and had already agreed at that time.
But Zhou Shiqing and they hadn’t understood the driver’s meaning, wasting time in vain.
After learning this, the several big men had embarrassment written on their faces.
Zhou Shiqing immediately resolved inwardly that after going back this time, he’d diligently practice English pronunciation and grammar.
After communicating the destination with the driver, the group officially prepared to set off.
But when arranging seats, a new problem arose.
The pickup truck had only front and back two rows of seats, and Xuan Xia’s group plus the follow-shot young man totaled six people, definitely couldn’t all fit; even squeezing, someone had to sit in the pickup truck’s cargo bed.
In the end after discussion, An Qi and Gu Sun’s follow-shot young man would sit in the cargo bed.
Because the car was borrowed by Xuan Xia, the follow-shot for her group naturally had the right to continue filming.
Thus An Qi and Gu Sun’s side’s live broadcast temporarily stopped, and viewers originally in that live broadcast room immediately jumped to Xuan Xia and Zhou Shiqing’s live broadcast room.
–
After the pickup truck driver said “Let’s go,” the pickup truck carried Xuan Xia and the group straight toward the Southern Dock.
After the car had driven a while, Xuan Xia glanced through the car window and spotted Song Yuhan who was communicating with a local islander, trying to borrow a motorcycle.
She immediately had the driver stop, then turned to ask Zhou Shiqing: “Mind if two more hitch a ride?”
Song Yuhan was such a big person, Zhou Shiqing couldn’t miss seeing him.
He didn’t say if he minded or not, just asked back: “Song Yuhan?”
The follow-shot young man knew filming, quickly turning the camera toward Song Yuhan by the roadside outside.
Live broadcast room viewers seeing Song Yuhan were already discussing whether to let him hitch a ride.
【Double fans say, let him hitch, let him hitch, I want to see handsome man golden age.】
With double fans supporting letting Song Yuhan hitch, there were also those opposing.
【Not enough seats to begin with, why hitch more people? And aren’t they competitors? Why be a good person?】
Amid some opposition and doubts, Xuan Xia didn’t hide it.
She told the few in the car: “Gonna cooperate with Teacher Song soon; just rejected allying with him earlier, so how about letting me be a good person in front of him now and show my face?”
The few in the car: “…”
But after hearing Xuan Xia’s words, the live bullet comments were all scratching ears and cheeks.
【Xuan Xia’s gonna cooperate with Song Yuhan? Cooperate on what?】
【Is it what I’m thinking?】
【What is ‘that’? Dying of suspense here.】
【The only thing I can think of is the drama Worldly Fireworks; it’s said to start filming end of the month. Song Yuhan is confirmed as male lead, and this second half of the year he only has this one drama. So the online news was real; Xuan Xia really is starring in Worldly Fireworks!】
【Wow really? Then I’m fully expectant.】
【Song Yuhan’s acting skills are so-so to begin with, now paired with Xuan Xia who’s barely acted, done, I think this drama is rotten drama pre-booked.】
Bullet comments had all sorts of voices, but the voices of the few in the car were very unified.
After learning Xuan Xia was gonna cooperate with Song Yuhan, even Zhou Shiqing put away his original expression and agreed to Xuan Xia’s decision.
The pickup truck pulled up beside Song Yuhan; after lowering the window, Xuan Xia called out to Song Yuhan: “Teacher Song, want a ride?”
Song Yuhan didn’t react at first when he heard someone call Teacher Song, until noticing the follow-shot and Wen Zhu looking back, he turned to look at the car full of people and found Xuan Xia greeting him from inside.
After asking, Xuan Xia didn’t rush to say more, quietly waiting for Song Yuhan’s reply.
Wen Zhu beside him was quite tempted.
Riding a motorcycle definitely wasn’t as comfortable as a car, and whether they could borrow one wasn’t settled.
Wen Zhu glanced at Song Yuhan; she really wanted to ditch him and go sit in the car herself.
Fortunately Song Yuhan didn’t think long, just two or three seconds, and he nodded readily: “Sure.”
No more borrowing the motorcycle, he walked straight to the pickup truck.
Wen Zhu hurriedly followed close behind.
In Song Yuhan’s live broadcast room, bullet comments were all relieved for him.
【Wow, the kid finally met a good person.】
【Seeing the kid struggle so much to borrow a motorcycle, really heart aching for this old mom. Good thing someone lent a hand; thanks to this Xuan Xia miss.】
But soon, the thanks turned into a sea of hahaha.
Because there were no seats inside for Song Yuhan and them; these two had to sit in the cargo bed.
By this point, Song Yuhan’s live broadcast room was still broadcasting normally.
But as the car hit the road and stopped again, Song Yuhan’s live broadcast room was about to be unsustainable.
So tiring, originally wanted to write the whole plot, but now can only arrange to tomorrow.
