Chapter 235: Chapter 216: Since When Is Being a Villager This Profitable?
The fans in the live broadcast room have all watched two episodes of “Life Experience” with Ji Xizhi. As soon as the third episode’s broadcast started, they were already waiting in the room early.
Seeing Ji Xizhi deliberately ignored by the boatmen got them instantly excited.
Some who knew the ropes even started predicting.
[Everyone, don’t rush. Let Uncle Wang have his fun, Zhi Zhi will start to retaliate soon!]
[This is hilarious. Did Director Wang forget how he went from Mr. Wang to Uncle Wang!]
[Don’t say anymore, let him fall flat on his face, let him fall!]
The old fans were banging their bowls and waiting.
On the coast, Ji Xizhi didn’t get a reply when she asked the nearest fisherman. She wasn’t angry, nor did her face show any awkwardness from being ignored.
She picked up her luggage with a calm look and switched to another boat, continuing to ask:
“Hello sir, are you going to Xianyu Village?”
She got the same result.
Not a single fisherman was willing to pay attention to Ji Xizhi.
By the end of her questioning, the fishermen on the boats even started turning their backs on her, resolutely refusing to reply.
At this point, Ji Xizhi understood.
The production team was deliberately making things difficult for her.
Ji Xizhi glanced at the following PD behind her.
This PD had been with Ji Xizhi for a long time, from having a meal from Ji Xizhi in the first episode of “Life Experience”.
In the second episode, even his rice bowl was snatched by Ji Xizhi.
Now the filming had reached the third episode, and the PD was very cautious.
When Ji Xizhi turned her head and looked over, he clung tightly to his camera with a look of “head can be broken, life can be lost, but work cannot be without” on his face.
Ji Xizhi: “…”
Forget it!
If it was Director Wang’s deliberate arrangement, asking the PD wouldn’t help and would only make it difficult for them.
Ji Xizhi thought about it, then stopped asking any more questions.
Just as well, there were some public fixed beach chairs by the coast. Ji Xizhi simply took her luggage over, lay under a sun umbrella, and waited.
–
In Xianyu Village, for this recording, the guests had rushed over individually this morning.
But Director Wang and all the staff of the production team arrived a day in advance.
Director Wang was lying on a beach chair leisurely looking at the beautiful scenery.
He had just watched, through the monitor, the scene of Ji Xizhi being continuously rejected by four or five fishermen, and was now laughing out loud, facing the sky.
While laughing, he proudly remarked to the main live broadcast room’s audience: “If it wasn’t for the trending searches a few days ago, I wouldn’t have known about this new approach, hahaha buying off villagers, why didn’t I think of this earlier!”
“And I’m not afraid to tell you, this episode for Ji Xizhi, only has her being sanctioned by me! Before Ji Xizhi arrived in Xianyu Village, I had already greased the palms of everyone in the village, now if anyone even talks to Ji Xizhi, it’s a 200 deduction, huh!”
“I don’t have social pet ability, but I do have cash ability!”
Director Wang had made ample preparations for this episode, arriving with the production team in Xianyu Village ahead of time just to cut off Ji Xizhi’s social pet ability.
Ping’an Village suffered once, and Lishui County suffered again!
Could his Uncle Wang – oh spit – Mr. Wang suffer this third loss?
Three strikes and you’re out!
So this time, he prepared in advance, mainly inspired by the previous trending searches about Director Wan and Ji Xizhi.
As a variety show director, Director Wang never considered such things before.
But last time’s trending searches seemed to have enlightened him.
Ji Xizhi didn’t spend money to bribe villagers for an image, but he could! In this episode, he openly buys relations.
Director Wang: Arrogant.jpg
This move by Director Wang, right at the start of the third episode of “Life Experience,” spiked the heat.
This time, it wasn’t relying on other guests, purely on Director Wang himself.
#The one bribing villagers is actually Director Wang# the tag, accompanied by the recent trending of Ji Xizhi buying villagers in Lishui County soared up.
Many viewers just finished the scandal about Ji Xizhi bribing villagers in the second episode of “Life Experience,” and turned around to see the third episode, where the director bribes villagers.
Viewers: ??? What? Is being a villager a lucrative job now?
A lot of people got drawn into the live broadcast room by this trending search.
The main live broadcast room from Xianyu Village where Director Wang is had a significant rise in popularity.
In the main live broadcast room, there were also many of Ji Xizhi’s fans who had just switched from her live room to see what was happening ahead of time.
But just as they switched over, they saw the comments under the main live broadcast, followed by the trending search, and Director Wang’s arrogant remarks.
The intellectuals: …!
They could never have guessed that Director Wang could use Ji Xizhi’s scandalous trending search against her?
[Shameless! Damn Uncle Wang, you’d better sleep with one eye open and keep the other on patrol tonight!]
[Bribing villagers, is this something a variety show director should do?]
[Hahahahaha, how much pain did Ping’an Village and Lishui County bring to Uncle Wang!]
[Wow, an unexpected way to clear one’s name, I’m not sure whether to thank Uncle Wang for clearing Zhi Zhi’s name or to blast him for targeting her!]
[No worries, we’ll account for ours, thank first, then blast, not mutually exclusive!]
[I’m not sure if it’s appropriate to say this… why does this treatment of Zhi Zhi feel like fixing the symptom but not the cause!]
…
Fans in the main live broadcast room were both angry and amused.
Director Wang, however, didn’t care at all.
Wearing a floral shirt and shorts, he stretched lazily with a smile all over his face, then picked up the newly opened coconut juice next to him, sipped it contentedly, and asked his assistant beside him:
“How is it? Where are the other guests, how long will it take for them to reach the village?”
In Xianyu Village, Guan Fengyan and Zhong Yulu had already arrived on the island.
Three guests were yet to arrive: Sheng Yaoyao, Zhu Xiu’an, and Ji Xizhi, with other flying guests’ flights delayed.
Director Wang was asking about the itinerary of these three regular guests.
To be precise, he was mainly asking about Ji Xizhi.
Just now Ji Xizhi was rejected by all the fishermen, to board a boat, she would have to think of a way herself.
Director Wang specifically gave Ji Xizhi half an hour to think and prepare, in truth, he wasn’t that mean-hearted. There were hand-rowed empty boats and life vests placed by the shore.
If Ji Xizhi had sharp eyes, she should be starting the laborious task of rowing by now.
As Director Wang lay on the beach chair imagining Ji Xizhi struggling, his mood lightened further.
The assistant, always keeping an eye on the guests’ itineraries, heard Director Wang’s question and calculated seriously: “Sheng Yaoyao is almost at the seaside and will probably take another hour, Zhu Xiu’an just got off the car and can board the boat soon, quickly, he can reach us in half an hour, Ji Xizhi… hmm… Ji Xizhi… might, perhaps, take another two hours? Three hours? Or even five hours?”
The assistant’s analysis sounded increasingly uncertain.
Director Wang: “??? Wait a minute? How did it get to five hours?”
Even if Ji Xizhi didn’t use oars and relied only on her two hands to row, it shouldn’t take that long, right?!
