Chapter 108: Love? Can we kiss?

"Let Jiang Yuanchu be on a dating variety show? Which genius came up with this idea? Awesome!" Bai Youlou exclaimed.

Liu Manli's expression did not change, because this idea was not hers. She just asked in return, "Why can't Xiao Yuan be on a dating show?"

Bai Youlou spread his hands, "Can she kiss the male guest?"

"Of course not!"

"That's it. Dating shows are nothing more than offline celebrity idol dramas. The hero and heroine have to get intimate with each other step by step. You can't go on a show to fall in love and end up holding hands with the male guest. Who wants to watch this kind of show?"

"If the male guest was you, maybe everyone would be willing to watch it." Liu Manli said lightly.

Bai Youlou:
If he was the male guest, the plot on the first day of recording the dating variety show with Jiang Yuanchu should be: fire!!!
Of course, this plot cannot be shown to the audience, not even if you have a membership.

Jiang Yuanchu can do what she says. Even if it is Bai Youlou, she will still behave like usual.

Enthusiastic, beautiful, polite, with a very contagious smile, but always keeping a safe distance.

The safety distance can be more than one meter or 0.01, but the latter is limited to RVs.

So there is only one meter left.

In fact, Bai Youlou’s ideas had already been the subject of a series of discussions within Manli Entertainment.

This is just a test. The test is not about whether Jiang Yuanchu can perform well in the dating variety show or what kind of sparks she can create with the male guests, but whether her fans can accept it.
Jiang Yuanchu's "staying away from men and focusing on career" is actually a kind of character setting, but compared to other artists' character settings that can easily collapse, she can fully adhere to this requirement.

Therefore, fans have always been very proud of this. As fans of Jiang Yuanchu, they have a sense of pride and superiority when it comes to some love affairs that pop up in the circle from time to time.

The slogan is: Our Xiao Yuan will never collapse!
However, this slogan and personality could help Jiang Yuanchu gain a large number of career fans and mother fans in the early stage, but now it has become a shackle.

This is also the cause of career bottlenecks.

So this program is actually a bit like selling dog meat under the guise of selling mutton.

It looks like a dating show, but in fact it's more like a reality show.

At the same time, the requirements for male guests are more stringent. It is best not to have too good a CP feeling with Jiang Yuanchu, but at the same time, there cannot be no feeling at all. The status must be high enough, otherwise if a small star is invited, the fans will be dissatisfied first.

The status is a big problem.

Looking across the entire entertainment industry, how many young male artists are able to match Jiang Yuanchu in terms of status?

Well. Logically speaking, Lu Wenyuan, who is often humiliated by Bai Youlou, is fine, but the fan base of top male artists like him is also very large. To be honest, I am afraid that Jiang Yuanchu will ignore them too much and be attacked by their fans.

We can't find her a middle-aged man, because if we do that, she'll be attacked by fans before the show even airs.

After thinking about it, I suddenly realized that the "weirdo" Bai Youlou seems to be the most suitable one.

There is no doubt that his traffic is huge, comparable to that of top male idols.

As for the status, to put it bluntly, Jiang Yuanchu is a bit too high.

Naturally there is no problem.

Moreover, after Bai Youlou experienced that incident, his "reputation" in this regard is not inconsistent.

His current "personality" is too complicated, or it can be said to be very simple. The words "carefree and true to his temperament" are literally engraved on his forehead.

I'm afraid everyone will understand what I'm doing.
In short, he is the most suitable candidate in all aspects.

The only problem is that Bai Youlou, whose focus is now clearly on music production and film and television production, is unlikely to accept such a program.

This is also the reason why Liu Manli must come here in person.

If someone else came, Bai Youlou probably wouldn’t even pay any attention.

Even if a high notification fee is given.
"How high?" Bai Youlou asked.

"what?"

Liu Manli seemed unable to understand for a moment.

Bai Youlou had no choice but to repeat himself, "How much is the notice fee?"

"This program is not produced by us alone, but we are definitely not short of funds. We will definitely give you the highest level of announcement fee in the circle." Liu Manli said with certainty.

Then he immediately added, "Moreover, in return, we can arrange Zhang Xiaorong from your company to be one of the female guests, and we can pair her with a male guest of sufficient weight according to your requirements."

Ah this.

Let Zhang Xiaorong also go on the show to date?
Old Zhou shook his head helplessly, thinking to himself, if you say so, then Bai Youlou
"Okay!"

Huh? Old Zhou was dumbfounded when he heard Bai Youlou's words. Is this true? So generous?!

"That's great!" Liu Manli said with a smile, picked up the tea, as if she wanted to use tea instead of wine, and clinked glasses with Bai Youlou.

As a result, Bai Youlou suddenly said, "Well, don't pair her with other male guests. Let me do it. Give me all the money and I'll take care of two of them."

"puff!"

He took a sip of tea and it sprayed all over his pants.

Liu Manli really couldn't hold it this time. While scolding the dog, she quickly picked up a tissue to help Bai Youlou wipe the water stains.

But after wiping it twice, I felt that the position was a bit unsuitable, so I quickly put my hand down.

As an older sister, she wasn’t embarrassed to blush, but she wasn’t in the mood to tease Bai Youlou right now.

Just marvel at the diversity of the human species.

It's rare to find someone as shameless as Bai Youlou!

No, it's not just shameless, it's simply crazy.

Dating two female celebrities at the same time on a TV show? You have such a rich imagination!

"The program plans to invite three pairs of guests, why don't you take the remaining one as well." Liu Manli couldn't help but complain.

Bai Youlou wiped the water off his pants and nodded, "Okay, just give me enough notice fee."

Liu Manli:
I looked at Bai Youlou again and felt that this boy was too unfamiliar.

She almost said: Why don’t I go on the show with you and fall in love with you?

I didn’t dare say.

Because she was afraid that Bai Youlou would really agree, Liu Manli became passive.

She felt that this guy was really not afraid of having a "New Year's Eve romance" with her on the show despite the difference in age between them being more than a dozen years apart.

Crazy, it's really crazy!

Finally~
Liu Manli came with high spirits, and left with doubts about her life.

I was fine when I came, but when I left, I felt a little dazed.

Is the deal settled?

It seemed like the deal was reached, but Bai Youlou's demands were a bit too "explosive".

They want to turn a good dating variety show into a "harem" project.

Liu Manli felt that she was quite a bit outrageous. She actually thought it was so ridiculous. She really wanted to watch it.

However, she was a little skeptical as to whether Bai Youlou simply wanted to make more money.

Giving all the budget for inviting male guests to him alone seems like he is a bit greedy for money.

"Brother Lou, are you serious?"

After Liu Manli left, Lao Zhou, who was also doubting his life, couldn't help but ask.

Bai Youlou glanced at him and said, "No?"

"It's not that it's not possible, I just think that if this show is really run the way you said, it's a little too magical."

"Let me ask you, do you want to watch the show once the preview is released?"

"I do!" Lao Zhou told the truth.

"That's it."

“But they may not be willing to do so!”

"Female guest?"

"hold head high."

Bai Youlou rubbed his chin and asked, "Do you think Mr. Zhang is willing?"

"Well, she listens to you in everything, so of course she won't disagree."

"So for Jiang Yuanchu, one-on-one or one-on-many, which one seems more real?"

Got it! Old Zhou slapped his thigh.

Wow, there is such a thing hidden here!

One to many, and a harem, it all sounds like a joke and it's hard to take it seriously.

It’s hard to say about a one-on-one match, as fans are very good at imagining things.

There are even some fujoshi writing CP articles for Bai Youlou and Zhen Dongjun on the Internet. They are really willing to support any weird CP.

But if it is a "harem", female audiences will not be so easy to be attracted to it.

This plan is really exciting for Manli Entertainment.
I just feel like it won't be easy to pass the review. Even if I really want to do it, I can't just write the words "dating" so casually.

Lao Zhou raised this point directly.

However, there was no reply from Bai Youlou. When I looked up, he seemed to be thinking about something.

Seeing this scene, Lao Zhou didn't dare to disturb him. Here it comes! Brother Lou got inspiration!
As someone who has accompanied Bai Youlou all the way from the beginning to today, Lao Zhou knows Bai Youlou too well, both as he was in the past and as he is now.

He had seen Bai Youlou in this strange state more than once.

Every time he appears, it means that Bai Youlou is going to come up with something “good”.

Not daring to delay, he quickly got up, found paper and pen, and placed them next to Bai Youlou.

as predicted.

In less than half a minute, I picked up the pen and started writing!

Although he didn't know how a dating variety show project suddenly gave Bai Youlou inspiration, but as for the world of geniuses, Lao Zhou said that a mortal like himself would never be able to understand it.

He even carefully took away the kitten that Bai Youlou had placed on the sofa.

Touching the cat's head, Lao Zhou said softly to the kitten: "Little boy, you are lucky. You can see God as soon as you get here."

"God" is still writing furiously, but the Snail Girl will never be late.

ding dong~
The elevator door opened, and Zhang Xiaorong appeared in Lao Zhou's sight. At first glance, she caught sight of the kitten in Lao Zhou's arms.

Girls have no resistance to these small, soft, furry and cute creatures.

Even Zhang Xiaorong almost exclaimed "Wow" subconsciously.

Fortunately, Lao Zhou made a "hush" sound in time, and while handing the cat to Zhang Xiaorong, he signaled to her what Bai Youlou was doing.

After understanding the situation, Zhang Xiaorong naturally wouldn't bother them.

However, this time the "God" state does not seem to last long.

The two were still communicating in sign language when Bai Youlou's voice came over, "Hey, is Teacher Zhang back?"

Zhang Xiaorong smiled at him and said, "What a cute kitten. Where did it come from?"

"It's a gift from someone else. From now on, you'll be a member of our company, a lucky cat."

After hearing this, Zhang Xiaorong couldn't help but rubbed the kitten's head, "Can you really attract wealth?"

Lao Zhou took over the conversation: "Haha, it really is true. Money has indeed come to our door today. I feel like Brother Lou can make tens of millions again."

"That cat is awesome!"

"Meow~"

At this moment, Bai Youlou recalled the "eye contact" he had with Lao Zhou before, "Did An Luning really buy songs again?"

"Oh, yes!" Lao Zhou patted his head, "I almost forgot to tell you, this is true."

"Then I'll write two more nursery rhymes for her?"

"No children's songs this time, and she's not singing them. The TV series she's filming needs two songs as theme songs."

"Send the story outline and let Teacher Zhang handle this business. If Aqiang is free, you can give him a song."

"No." Lao Zhou shook his head, "You were asked to sing."

"Ah? Are you crazy?"

"Don't say that. They are the sponsor. Not only do they want you to sing, they also want you to go to the crew and stay for a few days. Anyway, they have a lot of requirements."

With so many conditions, Bai Youlou didn't think the other party was "crazy". Instead, he asked, "How high is your price?"

Old Zhou smiled like a profiteer, "It meets your standard of high pay and low trouble, Brother Lou. Besides, didn't you say a while ago that you wanted to go on a trip? Her film crew is right at the foot of the mountain, the scenery is great, why don't you go on vacation?"

if it is like this.
"Okay, when are you going?"

"Just recently. Her agent, Sister Hong, doesn't seem to be in a hurry, but it shouldn't be too late."

"Teacher Zhang, do you want to go with me?" Bai Youlou thought that he couldn't leave Zhang Xiaorong behind when he went out for a "trip".

Zhang Xiaorong then held up the kitten and said, "I can't. I want to keep it and take care of it."

To be honest, Zhang Xiaorong is not very good at lying.

But no matter whether it is Lao Zhou or Bai Youlou, they will not expose her.

At this time, Lao Zhou finally couldn't hold back any longer, "Brother Lou, what did you just write?"

Bai Youlou didn't hide anything, "It's about that love variety show. I suddenly felt that this thing can actually be played in another way."

"Uh, how do you play?"

"One to three."

"Ahem, what else besides one-on-three?"

Bai Youlou spread out the paper, and Lao Zhou and Zhang Xiaorong came forward.

I was attracted by the three names at first sight.

"Before Sunrise", "Before Sunset", "Before Midnight".

After reading the brief summary written by Bai Youlou, Lao Zhou did not show any expression of shock.

He has long been used to it.

just feel
"It's just a love show, Brother Lou, why are you doing this?! It feels like... such a waste."

Zhang Xiaorong didn't say anything at all. She just looked at the story outline written by Bai Youlou, or it could be said as the simple script, and was actually absorbed in it.

Bai Youlou spread his hands, "I didn't say I was going to use this to get involved in that romance show. I just felt a little bit emotional. What did I tell you before?"

"Okay, express your desire. Do you want to show this to Liu Manli?"

"It's up to you."

Bai Youlou waved his hands casually. He just wanted to express his desire, so he just had to express it. As for what to do next, that was none of his business.

As for whether or not to use this thing to negotiate terms with Liu Manli and gain more benefits, that is within Lao Zhou's job.

He is good at ripping people off.

Lao Zhou?

He is taking pictures.

There is no way, Zhang Xiaorong won’t let go of Bai Youlou’s manuscript!

Can he still snatch it away?

These three stories are just simple descriptions, but they almost tell the story of all stages of love.

It's too lethal for girls!
She really didn't want to let go and was reluctant to give it to Lao Zhou.

Finally, after getting Bai Youlou's consent, the girl carefully folded the paper and put it in her wallet.

"Um, when are you going to look for Lu Ning?"

Bai Youlou thought for a moment and said, "Now."

"Is it so sudden?"

"I don't have anything to prepare. Life is like that. Sometimes it's more fun to just go wherever you want."

Ten minutes of effort.

When Lao Zhou came back excitedly again, he found that Bai Youlou was gone.

"Hey? Where's Brother Lou?"

"He's already left." Zhang Xiaorong replied while searching for cat supplies.

"Departure? Where to?"

"I went to find Lu Ning."

Wow, this action is too strong!
Lao Zhou scratched his head, "What did he take with him?"

"Yeah, a backpack and a skateboard." Zhang Xiaorong said after a brief recollection.

While she was speaking, Lao Zhou carefully observed her expression.

I can't see any clues.

Lao Zhou knew about the "past" between Bai Youlou and An Luning, but he didn't know whether Zhang Xiaorong knew about it.

Some things are not so good to say in front of her.

And Bai Youlou left in such a hurry, which naturally made Lao Zhou think more.
If Lao Zhou were asked to choose a housewife, he would choose Zhang Xiaorong without a second thought.

Dating and living together are two different things.

Before, Bai Youlou and Liu Manli were talking about maternal love and stuff like that. But actually, the way Zhang Xiaorong treated him normally was more like that.

Young people may not like this kind of "discipline", but who doesn't want one if they are mature?

So the question is, which type does Bai Youlou belong to?

The dog is sometimes mature and sometimes young
Judging from Bai Youlou's actions, the killing power of An Luning, the white moonlight, seems to be still extremely strong!
What can I do?
What if Brother Lou accidentally takes them down? These two are best friends!

Of course, this worry only flashed through Lao Zhou's mind for a moment. After all, it was not his turn to take care of these things.

He is now going to make things difficult for Liu Manli.

Who has ever seen a variety show like this?
Just the “Love in Trilogy” that Bai Youlou came up with can burn Liu Manli’s CPU!
　I'd like to recommend a book written by a friend, which is about history. Brothers who are interested can take a look.
