Chapter 180: Everyone Is a Group

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Zhang Enyi gestured to Zhao Chao. “It used to be Brother Chao. He was very professional, but our production team can’t accept his unscrupulous performance. After all, he’s a big-name artiste. The audience might not have a positive impression of him.”

Zhang Enyi sighed. “It’s been five seasons, and Brother Chao has been responsible for it alone. The audience will feel aesthetic fatigue. The roles of the other members have long been fixed and are difficult to change easily. As a female member, Lin Xi can’t go overboard.”

Everyone nodded in agreement with Zhang Enyi.

Any program or television drama would get repetitive over time.

And the program was always seeking new changes, which was not easy.

“Chen Che’s participation.” Zhang Enyi gestured to everyone. “Today, we are all fixed members. An unspoken mutual understanding is that everyone knows why Chen Che can’t ensure that he can become a fixed member.”

Chen Che lowered his head and did not speak. Lin Xi and Luo Heng glanced at him and did not say anything.

Zhang Enyi continued, “However, after these two episodes, Chen Che’s performance has impressed me. Now, I’m sure that he has all kinds of abilities and has found a breakthrough.”

Zhang Enyi looked at Chen Che and said to everyone, “Now, his partnership with Brother Chao will give our entire team a new lease of life and bring something different to the new season. I look forward to the ratings of this season.”

Zhang Enyi said to everyone, “After this episode, I’ll edit these two episodes and show them to the management of the station. We’ll try to settle it.”

Zhang Enyi continued, “In the future, nothing will change. Brother Chao will still lead and control the rhythm of the show. Chen Che will become a free man and can perform freely. Everyone can tease, play tricks on him.”

“But, on the other hand…”

Zhang Enyi raised his index finger. “Chen Che will also tease everyone under certain conditions. He will be vicious, playful, and teasing. Everyone should have already sensed this episode.”

From an observer’s point of view, everyone acts very naturally and even interacts very actively. They can tease and joke at will. The entire atmosphere and rhythm are very good.”

Everyone nodded in agreement.

“Is there a certain condition and range?”

Shen Hong looked at Chen Che and asked Zhang Enyi.

“Brother Hong, there’s no grudge…” Chen Che had a helpless expression.

Shen Hong deliberately smiled evilly at Chen Che.

Chen Che’s expression changed. He took a step back and subconsciously covered his chest.

“Put your hand down!” Shen Hong glared at Chen Che and shouted.

Chen Che laughed loudly. The atmosphere was relaxed and happy. This episode’s recording was just so relaxed.

Lin Xi also smiled. Feeling this happy atmosphere, she suddenly thought of Brother Liu’s face and could not help but feel estranged from this atmosphere.

Zhang Enyi seemed to follow Shen Hong and Chen Che’s commotion and looked at Lin Xi. He frowned and was about to say something.

“About Little Xi and her maanger…”

“Director.” Chen Che immediately stopped smiling.

While Zhang Enyi was stunned, everyone looked at him.

“I’m sorry, Director. Let me interrupt a bit” Chen Che stood up and said.

Zhang Enyi nodded, indicating that he listened.

Chen Che organized his words and slowed down. “Including me, we’re all a group. ‘Let’s Go’ is our slogan. However, we still have to face up to reality. We ultimately have different positions.”

He reached out to gesture at his surroundings, and his gaze stopped on Lin Xi. “Logically speaking, I shouldn’t be the one saying this.

“But since we’re talking on this topic, everyone should still focus on the actors. In the process of doing variety shows, we all have our own requests and need to take into account our image. At the same time…”

Chen Che gestured to Zhang Enyi. “We still have to consider the company’s operating philosophy.”

Zhang Enyi glanced at Lin Xi, who had her head lowered, and then at Chen Che. After a moment of silence, he smiled and said, “Lin Xi’s performance was also not bad. It made my eyes light up.”

Lin Xi smiled to express her gratitude.

Chen Che pretended to be angry. “Director, you have to check carefully. Your eyes lit up a few times. Is it the because it’s blood shot or looking through a kaleidoscope?”

“Haha.”

“The director is floating in the air!”

“Hmph, I just praised you a little, and you already dare to tease me.”

Everyone watched as Chen Che joked. Zhang Enyi also smiled and adjusted his glasses.

Speaking of which, the relationship between Chen Che and Zhang Enyi had indeed developed very quickly, even though there was a heavy barrier between them at first.

Zhang Enyi was a few years younger than Chen Che, but this did not mean that being young was necessarily good. After all, the audience covered all ages.

With Chen Che, the entire production team seemed even more complete.

As for the other matters, it did not seem to be that important.

However, to Chen Che and Lin Xi…

They went to dinner together and even took a few selfies.

As for the KTV activities after that, considering that it was difficult for the artists to hang out in public, singing became the only choice.

But this time, Chen Che and Lin Xi did not go.

They were not familiar with Ren Feifei. It was enough to befriend her during dinner.

Considering Ren Feifei’s birthday, they did not want to disturb her and the others’ gathering.

Many things had happened today, mainly involving Chen Che and Lin Xi.

When they were eating, they roughly understood what had happened.

Jiang Caiyi had not asked about this before. After all, she had been in the entertainment industry for decades and had experienced all kinds of situations.

To her, an argument between an actor and his agent was not a big deal.

Jiao Xiaofu had always been very clear about this matter. She had known about it when she, Luo Heng, and Chen Che filmed together in the afternoon.

As an artiste of Xiangjiang, Liang Chongwei would not easily inquire about this matter.

Everyone understood that the people here were older than Chen Che and Lin Xi. They had either been in the industry longer and had more experience.

Therefore, these things were not a big deal.

“Then go back with Little Xi.” Zhao Chao gestured to Chen Che, who nodded in agreement.

After leaving, it was not far from the hotel. At this moment, the sky was getting darker and there were few pedestrians on the road. Chen Che and Lin Xi simply walked back. Zhao Chao watched the two of them leave. As he got into the nanny van, he took out his phone.

“Hello? Is this Liang Mi?” Zhao Chao called Liang Mi.

Soon, the call went through. Liang Mi asked curiously, “Brother Chao? It’s so late?”

Zhao Chao: “I’m not familiar with President Zhang, so I’ll tell you directly. Something has happened to Little Xi within the production team.”

Liang Mi was puzzled. “Related?” Zhao Chao smiled and said, “Chen Che, you know, right?”

Liang Mi recalled for a moment. “Newcomer?”

Zhao Chao: “He’s not new. He entered the industry early and had helped me. I rested for two years and came out recently.”

“Oh.” Liang Mi asked, “Did you mention him because Little Xi appeared in a private show?”

Zhao Chao said seriously, “He’s a good person and doesn’t know how to ride on the popularity. Your manager doesn’t like him and even scolded him in public today.”

Liang Mi was surprised. “Liu Fangyu scolded Chen Che?”

Zhao Chao: “It’s a little too much. Chen Che wants to explain the airport incident. I hope you don’t blame Little Xi and forbid her from partnering with him anymore. Your manager doesn’t appreciate it and humiliated him in public.”

Liang Mi: “I understand the situation. There’s a misunderstanding. We were wrong. Besides scolding, was there also… a fight?”

Zhao Chao: “Chen Che was scolded and didn’t say a word.”

Liang Mi was speechless. Zhao Chao smiled and said, “For Little Xi, right? The production team is in chaos.”

Liang Mi: “What should we do now?”

Zhao Chao: “Zhang Enyi left angrily. President Zhang will communicate with him. You’re a popular artiste. Don’t let the company damage your connections.”

Liang Mi: “Thank you for the reminder. Is he really so good to Little Xi? Are they having an affair?”

Zhao Chao: “Chen Che is very valued by Zhang Enyi. His popularity is low now, but he will rise up soon enough.”

Liang Mi smiled. “I didn’t say that he’s not worthy. It’s a management company, not a public relations team..”
