Chapter 176 The Behind-the-Scenes of the Romance Variety Show Revealed!
Chapter 176 The Behind-the-Scenes of the Romance Variety Show Revealed!
"In order to win me over, you didn't hesitate to reveal that you are the organizer of the dating reality show."
"Unfortunately, you've miscalculated."
Gu Xing adjusted his collar and walked straight out.
The scene shifts to Su Qi seeing Gu Xing entering the interrogation room.
Once everyone had left, Gu Xing squatted down.
"Why does everyone hate me and betray me...?"
Why doesn't anyone believe me? Why do they all hate me?!
"Fine, since you all think I'm a bad guy, then I'll do as you wish and be a bad guy for once."
During the live-streamed trial, the judge asked, "Were you acting under someone's instructions?"
Gu Xing paused in front of the camera for a few seconds, then smiled meaningfully.
Because he knew that no one would believe him no matter what he said.
So, Gu Xing shook his head: "No one instructed them, but... isn't everyone curious? Who is in charge of a variety show that has almost caused deaths in every season?"
These words immediately sparked heated discussions across the internet.
Everyone vaguely understood what was going on. If it weren't for the organizer's approval, these celebrities wouldn't have dared to blatantly commit murder on a variety show.
Even for personal gain, no one dares to disregard the law.
Therefore, the most likely explanation is that the organizers were secretly sabotaging everything behind the scenes.
Gu Xing lowered his head and said, "It's Zheng Ran, the highly renowned Young Master Zheng of Hong Kong."
[How could this be? What happened, Young Master Zheng?]
Disgraced celebrities should stop dragging others down with them. Shouldn't they just take responsibility for their own actions?
He didn't drag Zheng Ran down with him, did he? Some lackeys shouldn't be so sensitive; I'm just stating the facts.
[Holy crap, it really is Zheng Ran! That makes sense now. Adding so many elements to a variety show without regard for cost, and with both the Shen and Gu families bankrupt, only Zheng Ran could afford it, right?]
[Since he's the organizer, why didn't he admit it sooner? Why did he still claim to be just an investor?]
Gu Xing addressed this question: "As for why he acted as an investor, I can only say that he deliberately confused the public and made the opponents lower their guard."
[Gu Xing's words were too vague, so who exactly is the opponent?]
Seeing this, Su Qi finally understood.
Gu Xing taking the blame for Zheng Ran, coupled with everyone's distrust and her disgust for him, ultimately became the last straw that broke the camel's back.
He betrayed Zheng Ran, using his last chance to meet the public to reveal the truth. In fact, he wanted to draw Zheng Ran's attention to his opponent's weakness and ruin Zheng Ran's reputation.
[In each of the three seasons of this dating reality show, there was a near-disaster, and yet they still failed to handle it properly, only trying to cover up the truth.]
I never imagined Zheng Ran was this kind of person.
He seems quite kind, but he's actually a shrewd fox behind the scenes.
I think his previous act of kindness in taking in the Shen family was just a show, wasn't it?
However, Su Qi knew that Zheng Ran's opponent was always her, and his goal had never changed.
From season one to season three, the fake relationship became real, all for the purpose of killing her.
However, how could someone as intelligent as Zheng Ran let his reputation be ruined for nothing?
As soon as the news of the dating reality show organizer being exposed was released, Zheng Ran, despite being both angry and anxious, still shamelessly took out a USB drive and handed it to his assistant.
Knowing the contents of the USB drive were risky, the assistant kindly reminded him, "Young Master Zheng, these are all baseless pieces of evidence. At most, it's just that Young Master Shen is helping Miss Su by buying her a house."
"And entering the entertainment industry, at most, can only explain that Mr. Shen wants to make money, but it can't really be used as evidence that the two of them are having a secret relationship."
"I don't care what methods you use, as long as this term becomes more popular than mine." Zheng Ran raised his eyes.
Zheng Ran then activated her own account, demanding an explanation from the public relations department.
@Zheng Ran: The performance of the artists in the variety show was due to my oversight. I have too many businesses under my management to supervise each one in detail. Fortunately, the netizens are very resourceful and helped me find the loopholes.
@Zheng Ran: As for my sister Zheng Xin's performance on the variety show, I have already made her accept the punishment, and Mr. Gu has also been submitted for review. I do not want the behavior of some disgraced artists to affect the ratings of the dating show.
@Zheng Ran: Finally, I know very well why Mr. Shen participated in my variety show. Considering the rumors about Su Qi, I'm sure you can guess why our variety show always causes such a mess.
The cryptic explanation only fueled netizens' speculation, who directed their attacks at Su Qi and Shen Chaohuai, overshadowing Zheng Ran's inaction as the organizer of the dating reality show.
"Such a tough public relations tactic."
Su Qi gritted his teeth.
"It seems I've become the one who took the bullet for him."
No wonder Su Qi and Shen Chaohuai were so close; it turns out it was true.
[Can the insider's revelations about dating reality shows be true?]
Feifei stared at the screen in despair: "What do we do now? Should we revert to a previous save and start over?"
Su Qigang thought of the 90 million that had just been deposited into his account: "We can't reopen it! Making money that way is too difficult."
The system indicated that there was still 100 million left. In addition, Su Qi had some assets invested in bank wealth management products, so if he withdrew them, it should be enough.
If she could sever her ties with the Shen family, then her relationship with Shen Chaohuai wouldn't be considered a forbidden love.
This is the only way; even if she explains that she has no relationship with Shen Chaohuai, no one will believe her.
Because the evidence Zheng Ran presented was absolutely real.
When Shen Chaohuai found Zheng Ran, Zheng Ran was sitting alone on the rooftop, enjoying the breeze.
Shen Chaohuai rushed over and grabbed Zheng Ran by the collar: "What exactly are you trying to do?! Can't you stand to see her doing well?"
Zheng Ran's body jolted for a while.
"Ha, Shen Chaohuai, you still trust me too much."
"Do you think all businessmen are like you, and that they must be honest?"
"Hmph, let me tell you, I got to where I am today by lying."
Shen Chaohuai released his hand, his expression clearly showing surprise.
"I haven't caught you red-handed, otherwise, you wouldn't be able to make a living in Hong Kong either!"
Zheng Ran swirled his wine glass, sat on the edge of the rooftop, and looked as if he was about to jump.
"From the very beginning, I agreed to let you invest in my variety show, just to create opportunities for you and her to spend time together."
“I’ll bring Shen Qingyue to my side, so you’ll have more opportunities to spend time with her.”
"Also, I was the first to know that Su Qi wanted to live alone, so I suggested that you treat her the way I treated Shen Qingyue, giving her your own space. That way, you can also have space to get along without interference from the Shen family."
"I know how you feel about her. I'm guiding you step by step. Don't hold back. If you like her, you should try your best to pursue her."
"But in the end, wasn't it you who believed me?"
Zheng Ran sneered, and Shen Chaohuai clenched his fists, finally understanding.
Zheng Ran laid so much groundwork, all to lure Shen Chaohuai into a pre-arranged trap.
The closer Shen Chaohuai got to her, the more he fell for her, until Zheng Ran successfully collected evidence of their forbidden love.
Whether it's true or not, as long as outsiders believe it and it can stir up public opinion, that's enough.
Zheng Ran was taking advantage of that motley crew who were unaware of the truth and were just trying to take advantage of the chaos.
Zheng Ran had a clear grasp on public opinion.
Shen Chaohuai finally looked dazed and staggered away from the rooftop.
It wasn't that he was unwittingly tricked; he was clearly doing it willingly, even knowing it would cause incalculable consequences.
He couldn't take it anymore.
