Chapter 47. Whiz stars (1)
As soon as they walked into the studio, they were directly led to a waiting room.
Here, a young writer started giving Ren and Wu Qing their instructions but it was mostly for Ren as Wu Qing was not new to reality shows.
"This is not a live show, so you can relax. Just give your natural reactions and answer the questions the MCs asked you. It would be fine and don't say anything unnecessary on the mic as your every word would be recorded."
The writer was giving him a lot of instructions and Ren was repeatedly nodding his head.
"Don't say anything more or you will scare him."
From his side, Wu Qing said as she fixing her dress and checking her makeup.
"Well, okay. Do your best."
"Can't you tell us about the other guest?"
Chief Shu said from the side. Ren and others still didn't knew about the other guest as the program team was adamant on hiding it.
In the end, they can only give up.
"We can't have that, Chief."
The young writer said as she giggled. After five minutes, Ren and Wu Qing were ready to go on the stage.
"Ren, don't worry and give your best."
White bear said with a smile but he was looking more nervous than Ren.
"Okay. Don't worry."
Ren said as he and Wu Qing left the waiting room and entered the stage.
As soon as Ren entered the stage, he saw the three MCs sitting there. There were all veterans who have hosted many variety shows.
Now, they were together hosting the Whiz stars and they all had their own individual fans.
"Wow, I didn't knew Wu Qing would be here today. I thought you forget about me after getting famous."
"Yeah, you are looking more beautiful today. Do you have a new haircut?"
"Hey, you two, there is not only her. You two really should get girlfriends."
"But we are already married!!"
"So, stop flirting with women or your wives will divorce you."
The MCs exchanged greetings with a shocked and happy face when they saw Ren and Wu Qing.
They were just acting but they were really good at it. There comic timing was perfect and their chemistry was also good after working together for so long.
"You are Xin Ren, right. I saw the movie. Your acting gave me the chills. You look much more normal in real life."
Zhang Hua, the oldest MC approached Ren after the initial greeting. The other two MCs were busy talking with Wu Qing.
They looked like they were flirting but Wu Qing was acting cute towards them. It was completely different from her usual blunt attitude.
Ren felt that she can be an actress seeing her acting.
"Do you think I was crazy in real life?"
"Hehe, no, your acting was just that realistic. I was in a show with Chu Min last week and he said many things about you. You are more promising than I thought."
Zhang Hua said as he laughed and started talking about many different things with Ren.
Of course, Ren was careful in his answers as his words were recorded but he also make it seem like natural.
"Now, then our main guests are here. Let's welcome our second guests."
The MC with glasses, Zhu Man said as he shouted and two people walked through the other door.
There was a man and woman walking up to the stage.
The man have a huge build and muscles could be seen from his clothes.
He was Jiang Hae, an action star.
The other one was a girl with a small build, she was Sun Yan, a veteran singer.
Despite her small build, she was actually in her late 30s.
The MCs again gave happy and surprised responses when they saw them. Jiang Hae and Sun Yan also gave their greetings and headed toward Ren and Wu Qing.
"So, you are the rookie that impressed Director Zhu. It's nice to meet you."
"Thank you, Senior. It's also nice to meet you."
Ren said with a smile and Jiang Hae started talking to him enthusiastically. He was the type to not hold back anything.
He was a simple minded guy to be exact. He was not known for his brain, so Ren wondered why he was here.
"Oh, it seems like you exercise too?"
Jiang Hae said as he looked at his arms. Ren had been exercising a lot these days, so he had grown some muscles.
Jiang Hae who was a action star was able to recognise it instantly.
"Yeah, I think it is essential to train your body regularly."
"Yeah, you are right. Actors these days don't care much about their exercising, they all are fixed on their face. I like how you give importance to exercise."
Jiang Hae said as he looked impressed by his attitude.
"Thank you for your praise, senior."
With that, the greetings ended and Jiang Hae and Sun Yan took their respective seats and then the MCs started calling out the last pair of celebrities.
"Okay, the last ones of our celebrities are pretty famous nowadays."
"Yeah, one is a acting queen and the other one is a rapper whose single is topping the charts nowadays."
"Let's welcome, Li Xinru and Rapper Shake."
Ren was surprised when he heard that. He didn't knew that Li Xinru would also be on the show.
He looked towards her as he entered the stage. She was showing him a smile as she was saying 'You are surprised, right'.
"Oh, look at his face. He is really surprised."
"Yeah, he didn't knew that she would be here."
The MCs pointed at him when they saw his reaction and laughed.
"No, it's just that we met a few days ago in the ending party. So, I was a little surprised to see her here."
Ren said as he scratched his head.
"Ah, now that I remember, «Secret spy» ending party was held a few days ago."
"Yeah, I also had gotten an invitation but I was not able to go."
"You always said that but we all know you were never invited there."
With those laughs and comments, the show gradually began and the MCs divided all the celebrities into three groups.
Wu Qing and Ren were in the same team obviously.
The MCs started asking some general knowledge questions to each team. Those who answered correctly got points and those who didn't got penalties.
They did that for some time and finally came at Ren's team.
'I wonder what will be the question be?'
Ren thought as he prepared his heart for the question.
