The True Young Master's Metaphysical Road to Fame in Showbiz Ch. 117

A practitioner of metaphysical arts from Xuanshu Association...

He stood up.

Xing Shuangzhan released his half-embrace, asking, "Going to notify the production team?"

Chi Qingzhou hummed in response. "They need to be prepared."

Xing Shuangzhan had no objections and retreated into Chi Qingzhou's shadow, helping him avoid the camera's gaze.

The director, who had been happily watching the guests work themselves to exhaustion, suddenly lost his cheer when Chi Qingzhou told him to be careful.

"Actor Chi, is something about to happen again? Don't scare me! I'm weak-hearted—just hearing you say that already made my legs go weak!"

Chi Qingzhou kindly reassured him, "Don't worry, maybe it's just a sign of good luck for you, Director?"

The director fell silent.

Nearly two minutes passed before he weakly waved his hand. "Good luck? I'd rather not have any of that. I just want to film a variety show safely and peacefully."

Like last season's show, wasn't it nice to just eat, drink, and travel?

Thinking back to how peaceful last season had been, Director Hu couldn't help but tear up.

That was the true way to enjoy a slow-paced travel variety show!

Chi Qingzhou thought for a moment. "But our show's popularity has already surpassed the highest-rated episode of the first season...?"

Director Hu paused mid-wave. After a few seconds, he turned to shout at his old partner. "Where's the fast-acting heart tonic? Get me a bottle!"

With this level of traffic and popularity, he could keep going for a few more episodes with a tonic!

Chi Qingzhou couldn't help but laugh.

The guests had rested for more than an hour at the temporary site, and finally, the shuttle to Bishui Bay arrived.

Everyone quickly grabbed their luggage, urging each other to board the shuttle, fearing they would miss it and end up having to walk up the mountain.

The shuttle jolted and swayed for about forty-five minutes before finally stopping in the parking lot in front of the resort's main gate.

The guests got off the bus and were greeted by an ancient-style building nestled among verdant trees. The roof edges curled up in layers, the ridge beasts were intricately detailed, radiating a unique Eastern aesthetic.

The main gate of the resort was wide open, revealing a shadow wall carved with exquisite patterns, and there were almost no tourists to be seen nearby.

The entire resort was very quiet, and the guests didn't hear much talking. The occasional birdcall made the place feel even quieter.

They looked around, and the parking lot had only a few vehicles, making it seem like there were hardly any tourists at all.

Tang Qichen was somewhat surprised. "This place is built pretty well, so why are there no tourists?"

Lu Man smiled and said, "Because the resort has been undergoing maintenance these past few days and isn't accepting guests, most of the staff are on vacation. We're taking advantage of this gap to film the show, so we won't disturb the resort's normal operations."

And they could save on booking fees.

The guests: "...You guys really know how to save every penny."

The resort staff approached with a polite smile, pretending not to hear the guests and production team exchanging sarcastic remarks, and courteously invited everyone to follow her into the resort.

As the guests walked and admired the scenery, the production staff followed behind. The resort's intricate retro decor captured everyone's attention, occasionally drawing gasps of admiration.

Seeing this, the resort staff straightened their backs, offering a poised smile and temporarily taking on the role of a tour guide.

The livestream viewers were equally amazed.

[Wow, this resort must be really high-end, right? The carvings are hand-made, which is impressive.]

[The decor is so exquisite, they've really paid attention to every detail.]

[Am I seeing things? The two sculptures in the distance look so delicate. Are they made of jade?]

[I see a hot spring! Wow, a huge outdoor hot spring with roses! I wanna dip in too!]

[What a beautiful flower field! This place is perfect for me, I could take a hundred photos here!]

It was early summer, and the temperature at the mountain resort wasn't too high. There were also many varieties of flowers in full bloom.

The lush trees formed a sea of green, and from a distance, it was incredibly refreshing.

The resort's decor followed an elegant style, and in terms of details, they had perfected every aspect, making luxury subtly restrained under an air of elegance. This approach fit the aesthetic of the Dragon Kingdom people better than any grandiose display of wealth.

After admiring the scenery, the guests arrived at the accommodations arranged by the production team around 5:30 PM.

Perhaps to make it easier for the staff to clean, the production team chose a small villa located at the north side of the resort, near the external wall.

This villa had three floors, covering over 400 square meters. Most of the rooms were standard twin-bed rooms, with two luxurious suites on the top floor.

If you added the few three-person rooms temporarily set up by the resort, there was more than enough space for the entire production team.

The environment was nice, and the guests were initially quite satisfied.

However, before they could compliment the place for too long, Director Hu, with a fast-acting heart tonic in his mouth, ignored the shocked yet somewhat complex gazes of the guests. In the face of Chi Qingzhou's earlier warning, he stubbornly and "resiliently" chose to continue causing trouble—

Although the accommodation was prepared in advance for the guests, what type of room each group stayed in and what kind of dinner they had still depended on how much money each group earned.

He waved his hand, signaling Lu Man to put up the pricing list.

The guests gathered around and saw that the cheapest standard room was 30 yuan per night, and a basic meal with two vegetarian dishes and one meat dish cost 15 yuan per person.

Looking at the money-making activities, the first challenge was 10 burpees per set. Each group member had to complete two sets, and they'd earn 20 yuan in total...

The guests: "..."

Well, forget the luxurious rooms and meals—they couldn't afford them.

Everyone glared at the director.

The director grinned, completely unconcerned by the guests' intense stares. He had the boldness of someone who had already given up and didn't care anymore.
