Chapter 162: Can’t Bear the Light of Day

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

How could a director, whose head had gone bald for the sake of viewership ratings, give up so easily just because his boss said no?

...

The director quickly messaged the staff to send a photo of Lin Shanchu in her bunny girl outfit to Nan Mu.

He also told Nan Mu how crazily the trainees’ reacted to her.

Then, all of a sudden, Nan Mu’s business sense kicked in.

He pondered.

The number of years of friendship he had with Huo Xunzhou should be enough for him not to take his life, right?

Maybe at most… Huo Xunzhou would just disable him?

When he thought of it this way, Nan Mu calmed down.

Then, he said, “But… Even if I agree, it’s still pointless if Lin Shanchu disagrees.” This wasn’t part of the program so there was a possibility that Lin Shanchu might not agree to it.

“It’s okay. I’ll go and persuade her.”

The director happily hung up the phone and went to look for Lin Shanchu.

Lin Shanchu had already finished learning the rabbit dance routine in the morning and was now back in the training room.

Although she was a rap rookie, she still held a basic spirit of cooperation.

She couldn’t let the rabbit dance affect her normal training.

She was on her break along with the other trainees when the director came and called her to the side once again to rediscuss the live broadcast idea.

“Let’s discuss it again…

“There’s no room for discussion.”

The director’s tone gradually became humble, “Lin Shanchu, after all, I’m just a director. Can you at least let me have some dignity?”

“I’m Lin Shanchu of the Lu Corporation, can you let me have some dignity?”

The director didn’t have any more counters left so he reorganized his thoughts and decided to change his strategy.

“Think about it. Don’t you want your fans to see the other sides of you?”

Hearing him mention her fans, Lin Shanchu’s eyes lit up slightly. “Don’t you know how much money they spent on you?”

He paused to observe Lin Shanchu’s expression before continuing.

“The amount of funds you’ve raised so far has already exceeded the amount the top trainee of the previous season raised.”

Although Lin Shanchu didn’t know the exact amount raised by the previous season’s first place, they were definitely worth tens of millions.

Lin Shanchu was taken aback, “That much?!”

The largest sum she had ever received was the settlement money she demanded at the police station from Lu Shiyuan.

“Yes, they really like you very much.”

The director could tell from Lin Shanchu’s expression that she was contemplating giving this a chance.

Lin Shanchu lowered her eyes and thought for a while.

The director was afraid the more she thought, the more she would convince herself to change her mind.

So he started praising her, “Lin Shanchu, you’re simply the most beautiful, adorable, and understanding trainee I’ve ever taught…”

But before he could finish showering her with compliments, she already disappeared.

The official Weibo account for ‘My Stage’ released a message:

‘A popular contestant was found to have a hidden phone. It was decided through unanimous voting that she would be punished in public. Tune in to the official live stream of My Stage tonight at Eight PM…’

This Weibo post was filled with a sense of ridicule. There was even a picture attached to show which group of trainees got caught.

Trainees who hadn’t debuted yet were considered ‘popular contestants’.

Although there was no mention of who hid the phone, the words ‘popular contestant’ made it quite obvious who it was.

But still, the fans of the other contestants were cautious and didn’t dare to simply assume responsibility for their idols.

The selection process for the third round of performances had just ended, so the popularity ratings were still sky-high.

This attracted netizens to the scene even before the fans themselves.

[There would be at least one trainee who sneaked in their phone on the show, but this was my first time hearing that they were punished for it!]

[After scrolling for so long, I still haven’t seen any names. Does anyone know who did it?]

[They deliberately didn’t announce the name to create suspense. As proud as I am of the show, I’m definitely not watching!]

The people behind the official Weibo account saw this and personally replied to the comment: [What if it was Lin Shanchu?]

The netizens immediately bombarded the thread with comments.

[Lin Shanchu?]

[Really?]

[You guys are cruel… Can you start the broadcast now?] [Okay! I’m going to wait in the live stream chat now, alright?]

The comments from the haters followed closely behind:

[There’s a problem with my Wi-Fi today, but it’s okay. I have plenty of data. I’ll be there at eight.]

[What? Lin Shanchu broke the rules and sneaked in a phone? She really has a problem with her character!]

[This program is sponsored by her fiancé. What’s wrong with her opening a back door and sneaking in a phone?]

[Please expose her true nature as soon as possible.] Lin Shanchu’s fans were actually the last to hear about this: [Our sister hid her phone?]

[Wow, I didn’t expect President Lin to do such a thing.]

[If she violated the rules, she should indeed be punished…]

[Seems like my President Lin has become so daring, she has even evolved into doing such things.]

[So… What’s the punishment?]

The fans of other contestants were busy being confused while Lin Shanchu’s fans were being a little too brave.

They actually took it as it was and were openly claiming responsibility for her.

Lin Shanchu had always been so gentle and honest. She never gave off the impression of someone who would secretly hide a phone.

Plus, the comment sent by the official Weibo account was only rhetorical. They had left it open to discussion.

But then, thinking back to what Lin Shanchu’s fans had done during the third round of selections…

The fans of the other contestants all knew that Lin Shanchu’s fans were indeed a little crazy.

‘The fans of an idol reflect their true behavior’ was truly a saying of wisdom.

They all waited quietly for the clock to strike eight.

This live broadcast was not part of the official program and was broadcasted on a third-party live-streaming platform for entertainment purposes.

It was a simple setup, a small stage.

The production crew had already gotten into position.

At eight o’clock sharp, the live broadcast officially began.

They didn’t hire a professional host.

Instead, Ran Zhimo and another trainee were the emcees.

The production team originally planned to have An Youyun on stage, but she declined because she was busy with training.

Although An Youyun hadn’t seen how Lin Shanchu looked in a bunny girl outfit, she heard people’s praises about it wherever she went.

Although she hated admitting it, Lin Shanchu’s appearance was indeed outstanding.

She was afraid that she wouldn’t be able to control her expression on stage and would embarrass herself.

So, out of sight, out of mind. Which was why she didn’t bother participating in this evening’s live broadcast.

Lin Shanchu’s haters arrived as promised.

[Was it really Lin Shanchu?]

[If it’s not Lin Shanchu, who else could it be?]

[Who else would dare to do such a thing other than Lin Shanchu?] The fans of the other trainees began to search for their own idols.

When Lin Shanchu’s fans arrived, they asked:

[Why don’t I see our President Lin? She dared to hide her phone but didn’t dare to come out and face us?]

[It can’t be! Our sister is someone who dares to take responsibility.]

Observant netizens noticed that the account that posted this comment was ‘Jiangjiang Tangtang’.

[Hahaha, Tangtang actually arrived so punctually.]

[Why did Jiang Tang comment using her main account?]

[Tangtang had always supported Lin Shanchu openly using her main account.] Jiang Tang glanced at the messages in the live broadcast room and replied. [‘Liking Lin Shanchu is not something that can’t bear the light of day.]

The production crew’s staff members were paying attention to the comments in the live broadcast chat.

After seeing Jiang Tang’s comment, they intentionally switched the camera to Yun wu.

The smart viewers in the live stream had already started sending out ‘Hahaha’..
