The Queen's Rise to the Top

Chapter 125: If you don’t come, I’ll go.



Chapter 125

Li Banyan opened the livestream of the show's production team and found there were three livestream rooms.

Zhao Lan, Zhong Lingfei, and Bian ZhiMing were in three different practice rooms, giving one-on-one lessons to the trainees on site.

In Bian ZhiMing's room, Ge Dongxuan was rapping. She wanted to add some rap elements to her final stage performance.

After listening, Bian ZhiMing gave advice: "Why don't you practice spit bars some more?"

Comments:

- Hahaha! B-box teaching online!

- Ge Dongxuan: Are you crazy?!

- Teacher Bian is still Teacher Bian!

- Laughing to death! Bian ZhiMing is at it again!

- I'm here! Pfft pfft pfft pfft! Pfft pfft!

...

Li Banyan laughed along, almost laughing to death.

Then she hung up the livestream here and glanced at the other two rooms.

Zhong Lingfei was teaching Deng Si Nan, Zhao Lan was teaching Zhou Wenxia.

Soon the trainees switched, Ge Dongxuan had left Bian ZhiMing's room, now he was teaching Miao Manning.

Li Banyan waited for a while, but still did not see Nan XiangWan!

Other comments were also asking about Nan XiangWan, wandering between the three rooms, but not seeing her appear.

After changes in the show's final week of filming, enough screen time was given to the mentors and other trainees. Basically anyone who wanted screen time could get it anytime.

But a certain rule-breaking girl still hadn't shown her face!

So the whole day passed.

The comments were tired of waiting, still not seeing Nan XiangWan!

The fans rushed en masse to Nan XiangWan's Weibo, begging Xiao Wan to make an appearance.

But Nan XiangWan rarely went on Weibo, it was almost impossible that she would read private messages or comments. She simply practiced a bit in the practice room, then started to review and do homework.

With only 60 days until the Gaokao (college entrance exam)!

She was anxious!

With the system's skill enhancements, Nan XiangWan found the final stage performance easy, no pressure at all.

Only studying was a nightmare!

On Weibo,

Under a promotional post by the official account "Go For Debut! Show",

Suddenly tens of thousands rushed in, all asking about Nan XiangWan.

No sign of her all day!

The fans were anxious!

Going a day without seeing Nan XiangWan's laugh, they felt extremely uncomfortable all over!

The official account said their hands were tied, who could've thought Nan XiangWan didn't have a single problem? She didn't even go see the mentors at all?

Simply outrageous!

Among the sea of fans, Li Banyan also left a comment with her main account.

- Cheng Dong Entertainment Li Banyan: Ah ah ah! Please show staff, make Nan XiangWan appear! Miss her! Miss her! Miss her!

Instantly ten thousand likes!

The fans directly upvoted Li Banyan's comment to the top!

It was known that she was Nan XiangWan's roommate in the show, so the fans were very familiar with this girl.

Li Banyan posted the Weibo then went to eat dinner.

Before the official account could reply, she received a notification from her agency Cheng Dong Entertainment instead.

'Yun Shao: Delete the Weibo.'

'Li Banyan: Huh? Which one? Sister Yun Shao, I didn't post anything!'

'Yun Shao: The comment, under the "Go For Debut" official account post! Go delete it now! Nan XiangWan is an artist of Hua Wan Entertainment! What are you hyping her up for when you're free?'

'Li Banyan: Oh...'

'Yun Shao: Don't you care about your own artist? Miao Manning made it into the finals, have you posted anything to support her?'

'Li Banyan: Got it, I'll go post now.'

'Yun Shao: You're currently tied to Miao Manning. She won't debut but you two can still form a small duo, go on shows and film commercials together, understand?'

'Li Banyan: Understood.'

Li Banyan could only open Weibo again and deleted her comment under the show's official post, then posted to support Miao Manning.

She just wasn't very happy about it.

Opening the livestream again, she still didn't see Nan XiangWan appear.

Li Banyan sighed, envying Zhu Sha for being able to switch companies...

The disappearing comment was noticed not only by fans, but also the official account.

The operator was just about to reply to Li Banyan's comment, after all she was a trainee from the show itself, and Li Banyan had her own fans from her likable personality, with over 800k Weibo followers now. She could definitely become a small celeb, filming web dramas and so on!

Who would've thought in the blink of an eye, the Weibo would be gone?

The operator scratched his head, not thinking too much of it.

On the other hand, in Nan XiangWan's major fan groups.

The organized and disciplined fans were discussing this situation.

Aside from doing data and voting for Nan XiangWan, they also cared a lot about her personal relationships.

【Nan XiangWan Big Fan Group】

'Carry An An and San San: The comment we upvoted from Li Banyan was deleted. Did the official account delete it?'

'Zhe Li lz: Obviously not, she deleted it herself. She posted to support Miao Manning.'

'Nan Nuan: Normal, after all Li Banyan is Cheng Dong's artist, she probably got called out by the company.'

'Green Sleeves: Oh, Cheng Dong manages so strictly? Their artists can't even interact with friends privately?'

'Carry An An and San San: Looks like Li Banyan girl doesn't have any freedom!'

'Nan Nuan: Thankfully our Xiao Wan owns her own company, no one can bully her, phew.'

'Zhe Li lz: Phew +1'

'Green Sleeves: Phew +2'

...

Gu Beihuai looked at the discussion in the group, frowning slightly.

He had also been watching the livestream all day.

He had been unhappy ever since Nan XiangWan didn't come eat the table full of food he prepared last time.

And now Nan XiangWan was back at the show but not appearing?

Gu Beihuai felt extremely uncomfortable all over!

His daily joy was gone!

So he called show director Hua Yuanwu.

The other side picked up after three rings.

Hua Yuanwu: "Mr. Gu! What can I do for you?"

Gu Beihuai: "How long will the one-on-one mentoring sessions in the three practice rooms last?"

Hua Yuanwu: "Continuous until the day before the finals, is there a problem with this arrangement Mr. Gu?"

The show's arrangements were all planned out.

This was deputy president Zhao Tiancheng of South-North Entertainment's idea.

Now the big boss Gu Beihuai was suddenly calling him, Hua Yuanwu was panicking!

Normally Gu Beihuai would ask Zhao Tiancheng, not Hua Yuanwu.

Let alone ask in such detail!

Hua Yuanwu was sweating bullets, he truly feared Gu Beihuai, the man's schemes went too deep!

Last time he silently set up and destroyed a certain trainee's prospects, the means were ruthless and decisive, not leaving any chance, Hua Yuanwu was still scared of him now!

Gu Beihuai was silent for two seconds on the phone, then said: "Open another livestream room, I'll also be a mentor to help the trainees."

Hua Yuanwu: "Uh???"

He was stunned, did he hear wrong!

The Heavenly King lowering himself to be a mentor for trainees at the show?!

Gu Beihuai quickly added: "There's nothing wrong with the show's arrangements, but you've given the trainees too much freedom. If Nan XiangWan doesn't appear, viewing numbers will drastically drop over the course of a few days."

Gu Beihuai: "As the lead director up to this point, you should understand very clearly, how many people are here just for Nan XiangWan."

Hua Yuanwu quickly explained: "Yes, yes, today's livestream reception has been very poor. Nan XiangWan is... she's reviewing homework in the practice room. For the rest related to stage performance, Nan XiangWan's skills are maxed out already, she has nothing to ask the mentors about. I can't force her to show her face, the Gaokao is important after all."

Gu Beihuai: "So I'll go attract some of the popularity."

Hua Yuanwu: "Great, great! With you coming, the show will definitely explode!"

Gu Beihuai: "I'm just supporting my own investment project."

Hua Yuanwu: "Understood, understood!"

After hanging up, a hint of smile flashed in Gu Beihuai's eyes.

Little girl's not coming out, so he can go!

And the reason sounds perfectly valid!

Gu Beihuai's mood instantly improved a lot.
