Chapter 16: Cohabitation Variety Show? This Is Thrilling
Yu Wei’s first signed book was a variety show novel.
At that time, he didn’t understand any routines or templates, writing whatever came to mind, resulting in the entertainment parts of the novel being a complete mess, but the several guests had distinct personas……
Later, he learned from others to lean towards wish-fulfillment novels, stuffing all sorts of program effects into the variety show, but instead he couldn’t write that feeling anymore.
In order to let the protagonist show off, the other guests seemed to become soulless empty shells, making readers find it bland yet reluctant to drop it.
One goddess-faced innocent little white flower female lead, one bubbly airheaded female second lead, one scheming bad woman female third lead, plus a few tool-man male guests to set off the male lead, ok, a variety show novel is done.
Writing too much, Yu Wei himself almost believed it……
Not to mention the tool-man male guests, in reality, where are there so many pure innocent little white flower female stars? Those who can make it in the entertainment industry are no pushovers.
Anyway, Yu Wei had no intention of stirring things up, the entertainment industry waters run deep, he couldn’t grasp it, so he treated it as going out for material gathering.
The company’s approval came down very quickly, so quickly it even carried a sense of eagerness……
Originally Qi Yuan going was a done deal, but then suddenly they changed their minds, although it wasn’t a breach of contract, it was still hard to explain to the program team.
Now it’s good, there’s a more presentable Yu Wei, him going on the program is stronger than the original plan, it’s an unexpected delight.
Yu Wei’s popularity is at its peak, with topic heat, and the program team gladly accepted it.
In a sense, this replacement is simply a win-win-win, company, Yu Wei, program team, no one loses, everyone good is really good.
So who is the one losing out……
“Sister Liu, what is this variety show about?”
Variety show recording is imminent, but Yu Wei only got the notice temporarily, knowing nothing about it, he only hoped it wasn’t that all-cast neurotic second season of Flower Boy.
“Seems like a reality show where several stars live together.”
“Live together?”
So stimulating? Even if this world’s entertainment industry is developed, it shouldn’t be this ruthless, he wouldn’t dare write it that way in his novels.
“The shared rental kind, what are you thinking?”
Liu Ning rolled her eyes at him, and conveniently found a variety show introduction for him to read.
Whew, shared rental, then it’s fine.
“HELLO Roommate”, a star reality show centered on urban youth shared rental life.
The program is set in a Western-style house, one landlord, six resident tenants, plus guest performers of unknown identity, together experiencing urban young people’s communal living.
Yu Wei this time is to act as the guest performer, that is, the temporary seventh tenant.
Seventh person, wherever he goes he’s the seventh, the will of seven, huh……
This kind of life observation variety show is quite similar to “Yearning for Life”, essentially still interpersonal socializing and various small tasks, but the program perspective is aimed at urban crowds.
The guests’ ages are generally not old, basically newly risen stars from domestic entertainment in recent years and a few child stars, focusing on youthfulness.
Among the six resident guests, two are child stars, three came from talent shows, and one is star second generation.
Looking at it this way, Yu Wei’s resume even crushes this group……
All peers, he has presentable representative works, and his current fame isn’t much less than theirs.
Rout game?
Yu Wei hasn’t written this kind of variety show before, entertainment variety show plots actually all have a bit of “counterattack” flavor, creating program effects through the contrast of a small character with a group of famous people.
Finally, the protagonist counterattacks and slaps faces, rising to power by stepping on big stars, achieving the thrill of the small beating the big and the weak defeating the strong.
This time Yu Wei is quite different, not daring to call it dimensional strike, but he is absolutely among the best-mixed batch of guests.
“A bit interesting.”
Yu Wei is a vulgar person, for him counterattack is certainly thrilling, but occasionally showing off is also nice, who doesn’t want to be the best-mixed one during holidays?
Where do so many high-aspiring saints come from, secretly rejoicing is the norm of life.
One week’s filming time is basically no different from a business trip, when packing luggage Yu Wei simply brought his laptop too, also convenient for writing.
Head can be broken, novel updates cannot be broken;
Blood can flow, readers’ tears cannot flow.
His book is currently in a critical period, if he doesn’t grasp it, future data will be in jeopardy……
Even if just for the work, this book must update as usual!
While packing things, Yu Wei received several new messages, originally planning to check later, who knew the other side sent over a dozen in a row……
“Who is it?”
Seeing the ID “This is An Shi Le”, Yu Wei felt rage rise from his heart and malice toward his guts, this little black fan information bombing?
But seeing the specific content, Yu Wei was dumbfounded, what he sent were all screenshots of his own novel, with typos circled in red on them.
Wrongly blamed them……
Writing novels makes typos hard to avoid, many great gods still can’t fix them completely even after operations help correct, let alone a little failure like him.
There are readers who will point them out to remind him, but such a large-length correction is the first time.
What’s with this inexplicable moved feeling?
No……
“These screenshots aren’t from Qidian!”
“Mm, I’m reading the pirated version.”
Qi Luo An was straightforward, this book has been hot recently, too many people posting ads in the book review area to ride the popularity, seriously affecting the reading experience.
But Yu Wei couldn’t hear this, the sky has fallen, his trash book even has pirated versions.
Actually he can understand readers reading pirated versions, after all in his early years he read novels as txt files too, only later developing the habit of paid reading.
There’s nothing much to say about this, but as an author, his mood is a bit complex……
He even didn’t want to count a follow-up read for himself, white moved.
“Don’t worry, I’ve brushed follow-up reads.”
Qi Luo An paused, finally couldn’t hold back and asked: “What exactly are you thinking, running over to write entertainment novels?”
Currently she is one of the few who knows the truth, but whether as a reader or a fan, she doesn’t know what Yu Wei is doing.
“Kid wrote it for fun without thinking.”
Actually at the very beginning Yu Wei wanted to write something else too, but his skill wasn’t up to it, couldn’t write it.
Later occasionally read a few entertainment novels, tried writing himself and accidentally signed, then wrote all the way to now.
Rather than saying he likes entertainment novels that much, it’s better to say everything is the best arrangement.
“Being able to write imagined stories for everyone to see, how interesting is that?”
This is Yu Wei’s heartfelt words.
Although still a bit unable to figure it out, Qi Luo An felt she understood him more……
If it were other stars, big or small, they wouldn’t patiently chat so much with a stranger like her.
On Yu Wei, what she felt was only realness, not proclaiming plainness, nor fearing plainness, freely moving between halo and everyday.
This kind of star, she saw for the first time, and was very curious.
Yu Wei just wanted to write books, unrelated to whether he’s a star, maybe one day he becomes a superstar, he might still continue being a failure.
“Then I wish you can always be a failure.”
“So ruthless?”
Every time Yu Wei chats idly with this black fan, he’s very patient.
Ever since coming here, people around treat him as a star, but only this person, even knowing he’s a star, treats him as an ordinary author……
This feeling is very subtle.
Just like, no matter if Sun Wukong succeeds in fetching scriptures or becoming Buddha, the monkeys of Flower Fruit Mountain will only call him Great King.
Without any identity, status, or social niceties, no need for scheming or suspicion, just the purest exchange.
“If I always stay a failure, will you always read?”
