The theme for this episode of “Life Experience” is quite simple, it’s called “All Out Attack.”
Except this time, the targets have switched from the show’s “guests” to Director Wang and the staff, while all the guests take on the role of the variety show’s “directors.”
This was something that several guests discussed in advance with the investor of “Life Experience,” Ji Tingzhou. The only ones kept in the dark were Director Wang and the five regular PDs of the show.
These six individuals are the official guests for this episode of “Life Experience.” Until the day before filming, these six “guests” had no idea that the show had been restarted.
On the day of filming, at five-thirty in the morning, the six “directors” officially appeared in the “Life Experience” live broadcast room.
“Life Experience” made a comeback after several months. To better keep it under wraps, the initial recording location was set at Ji Xizhi’s home.
Fang Zhuyue and Zhu Xiu’an both arrived at Ji Xizhi’s home last night, while Guan Fengyan, Sheng Yaoyao, and Qin Yutian came over after finishing their activities early in the morning.
Once they arrived, no one bothered to rest. Fang Zhuyue and Zhu Xiu’an, despite arriving early, were too excited and hardly slept, while the other three had come over in the wee hours, let alone rested.
The five of them began getting ready intensely from around four o’clock, their sleepy eyes wide open, but they didn’t slack off. Dark circles were concealed repeatedly, and several cups of coffee were downed.
Fang Zhuyue changed several sets of outfits but was not satisfied, Zhu Xiu’an specially put on a punk studded leather jacket and posed in various stances, Sheng Yaoyao brought a whole foldable makeup table to refine her make-up in front of the mirror, and Qin Yutian’s stylist was meticulously curling each strand of his hair to achieve the most exquisite look. Even Guan Fengyan, the oldest and most composed person among them, couldn’t resist pacing back and forth in front of the full-length mirror in such an environment.
Everyone was taking the relaunch of the show very seriously.
Ji Xizhi’s living room was almost filled with the makeup artists and stylists everyone brought along.
It wasn’t until five-thirty in the morning that the five of them were more or less ready.
“Life Experience” was officially set to start broadcasting. For this episode, since the filming PD and director became “guests,” the broadcasting format adopted was individual live broadcasts.
Before recording, everyone raised their phones in unison, taking a group photo before filming.
Everyone posed in their coolest stances, engrossed in posing when Fang Zhuyue suddenly paused. She looked around and asked in confusion, “Hey, wait a minute! Where’s Zhi Zhi?”
With Fang Zhuyue’s reminder, everyone finally realized.
Right! Where’s Ji Xizhi?
Since everyone arrived at Ji Xizhi’s house, they had only seen Ji Xizhi once and then seemed to have completely forgotten about her.
Sheng Yaoyao looked at the messy living room with a sense of guilt, “Did we make Zhi Zhi’s home too messy?”
Fang Zhuyue also suddenly remembered, “All of us brought fixed makeup artists and stylists, but Zhi Zhi doesn’t have an agency, so she definitely doesn’t have anyone to arrange makeup artists and stylists for her.”
With Fang Zhuyue’s comment, everyone exchanged glances.
They scrutinized each other’s exquisite makeup and styling, feeling increasingly conflicted.
The restart of the show and its unique format made everyone overly excited about this episode of “Life Experience,” to the point they forgot about other things.
Though Ji Xizhi isn’t some small-time entertainer, she indeed doesn’t have a more extensive team to consider for her, unlike others who had stylists and makeup artists helping, Ji Xizhi had none.
Who could withstand such a disparity?
Even a minor celebrity in the entertainment circle would feel upset in such a situation, let alone Ji Xizhi.
Moreover, the five of them and Ji Xizhi aren’t just acquaintances with mere superficial politeness; they are genuinely good friends, so they could truly empathize with Ji Xizhi’s feelings.
Sheng Yaoyao and Fang Zhuyue were the first to walk to Ji Xizhi’s bedroom door, raising their hands ready to knock.
The bedroom door was suddenly pulled open from the inside.
Fang Zhuyue’s hand, paused mid-air to knock, bumped right into Ji Xizhi coming out from inside.
Ji Xizhi, looking like she just woke up, noticed the five people blocking the doorway, finely dressed but with huge dark circles under their eyes, paused and was ready to speak.
But Fang Zhuyue and Sheng Yaoyao, both of them, interrupted her first.
Fang Zhuyue: “Zhi Zhi, let me help you pick out today’s outfit!”
Sheng Yaoyao, a bit slower to react, also nodded, smiling, “Then I’ll help tidy up your makeup~”
Guan Fengyan and Qin Yutian, knowing their limits—one’s aesthetic was not up to par, the other’s capability wasn’t comparable—remained silent.
But Zhu Xiu’an was eager to try, raising his hand, he rolled up his sleeves, “Well, you styled me last episode, this time it’s my turn, so I’ll style you!”
Fang Zhuyue/Sheng Yaoyao/Guan Fengyan/Qin Yutian: ???
We asked you to provide timely help, not to make things worse!
Zhu Xiu’an initially meant it as a joke, but seeing everyone’s expression, instantly the zealous spirit within him was aroused, “What’s up? You underestimate my aesthetic?”
Ji Xizhi slowly pointed from head to toe at Zhu Xiu’an’s spikes, “… Do you have an aesthetic sense?”
Zhu Xiu’an: “…”
“What do you know? This is called retro! I’m trying to evoke sentimental memories from the first episode with the fans!”
Emotional?
Ji Xizhi paused, recalling the villagers of Ping’an Village’s impression of Zhu Xiu’an from the first episode, and unerringly punctured Zhu Xiu’an’s fantasy, “Then I suggest you might want to stick to the humorous route.”
“We all agree!”
The other four unconditionally aligned with Ji Xizhi’s thinking.
Zhu Xiu’an’s interruption managed to lighten everyone’s mood.
Sheng Yaoyao steered the conversation back, “There’s still some time before recording starts, Zhi Zhi, let’s help you put together something, it’ll be fine.”
Fang Zhuyue couldn’t wait to help Ji Xizhi pick out an outfit, but before she could even enter Ji Xizhi’s bedroom, Ji Xizhi countered with a question:
“Put together what?”
“The makeup and style for the live broadcast appearance today…”
“But aren’t we the directors for this episode? So shouldn’t we have the ‘guests’ of this episode do the makeup and styling.”
Ji Xizhi’s casual question left the five standing at the door dumbfounded.
What?
Directors don’t need to get up early for makeup?
Oh right, their purpose for this episode is to mess with Director Wang and the PDs who are the guests! Yet, they haven’t even seen the guests and have already worn themselves out!
The early morning fatigue they’d been hiding was, at this moment, like a mountain toppling over, unstoppable.
Who could withstand such a disparity!
Completely unbearable!!!
