Chapter 239 Invited to Appear on Camera
Although the food stalls are usually crowded, this was the first time I'd seen such a large group of people with cameras. Everyone around could tell they were filming a show, and they all stared at the group as if they were watching a spectacle.
"Hey! Is this a variety show being filmed? Which celebrities are on it? I've never seen them before?"
"I don't know, but the tone of voice sounds like it's from the corn country."
"Do any of you know anything about it? Let's search it up. What if it's a big star? We can get an autograph from them. That would be a rare opportunity!"
"He looks familiar, so he must be a big star."
Wow! That beautiful woman in the middle is so pretty! I feel like I've seen her somewhere before!
"I think I've seen it before, but I can't remember clearly."
Passersby whispered among themselves, especially around Jiang Chengcheng, staring at her intently as if they had seen her somewhere before. Some of the bolder ones even came over to ask her questions.
"Are you guys filming a variety show?" A girl tugged at her boyfriend and came closer, asking shyly.
“Yes.” Jiang Chengcheng wasn’t aloof; she nodded in response to the girl’s words.
"Are you a celebrity? I feel like I've seen you somewhere before!"
When the girl saw Jiang Chengcheng's response, she became even more excited, wondering if she was lucky enough to have met some big star.
"Haha, many people say I look like a certain celebrity, but I'm not really sure." Jiang Chengcheng didn't answer the question directly, but instead tried to dodge the topic with a laugh.
She roughly knew why the girl thought she looked familiar. Putting aside the fact that Jiang Chengcheng had filmed a wildly popular TV series because of a system mission, her later Olympic figure skating championship win made her quite famous in China!
However, due to her busy studies and scientific research, Jiang Chengcheng has not appeared in public for a long time, so people's memories of her have gradually faded.
But there was no guarantee that some people in the crowd might still remember her. There were so many people here, and if she were surrounded, she wouldn't have anywhere to run. So she simply chose to brush off the question.
"Really? That's probably because you're too pretty." Seeing Jiang Chengcheng say that, the girl didn't press the matter further. Since there were photographers all around, she felt embarrassed to keep following the group. She left those words behind and pulled her boyfriend toward the outer perimeter.
Jiang Chengcheng strolled around the snack street with the others for a while longer. Originally, there was an outing program scheduled for the afternoon, but the production team considered that the guests were exhausted from climbing the mountain, so they simply chose to play games at the Huating Hotel and fulfill their promise to help promote the event.
After Jiang Chengcheng and the others returned to the hotel, she thought that today's mission was completed, so she planned to go to her room to pack up and go home. However, she was stopped by the director before she could take two steps.
"Miss Jiang, please wait a moment." Because of the previous bribery incident, the production team basically knew Jiang Chengcheng's name.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Chengcheng stopped in her tracks upon hearing the voice of the person who had come from and looked at the director with a puzzled expression.
"Ms. Jiang, it's like this. Aren't you the owner here? We were thinking that since we want to promote the hotel, why don't you join us for the games this afternoon? That way, we can increase the hotel's exposure."
The director expressed his request with a smile, his expression full of expectation.
Actually, he had some ulterior motives that he didn't voice: a beautiful, unassuming woman like Ms. Jiang would definitely increase the variety show's exposure and viewership.
Jiang Chengcheng didn't answer immediately upon hearing this, but instead frowned slightly, indicating that she wasn't too keen on participating in this kind of game show.
"Excuse me……"
Before Jiang Chengcheng could even utter her refusal, the director, seeing her expression, assumed she was unhappy about working for free, and quickly spoke up.
"Ms. Jiang, we can offer 30 yuan... no, 50 yuan for the appearance fee! Please help us! Higher exposure on our variety show will also benefit your company's publicity!" Seeing that Jiang Chengcheng looked uninterested, the director quickly put his hands together and pleaded.
"Well... okay." Jiang Chengcheng saw that the director was begging her so much, and she had been filming as a tour guide all day, so she figured she might as well play a game. After thinking for a moment, she relented.
"That's great!" The director was visibly excited when he heard Jiang Chengcheng agree to film the movie. Anyone who didn't know better would think Jiang Chengcheng was some kind of international superstar.
Of course, even among international superstars, there are probably very few in the world who can surpass Jiang Chengcheng in appearance, and it's no exaggeration to say that there simply isn't one.
With the system as her cheat code, Jiang Chengcheng is not only powerful in terms of ability, but also in terms of appearance!
This is why the production team was willing to spend a lot of money to invite an ordinary person to appear on screen!
…………
Since Jiang Chengcheng had agreed to appear on the show, she had no choice but to play games with the group at the venue set up in the hotel.
The choice of hotel venue was made jointly by the production team and the hotel. This not only increases the entertainment value of the program but also showcases the outstanding design of Huating Hotel to the audience, thereby increasing foot traffic and achieving the goal of publicity and exposure.
However, the game segments of this show were so childish and outdated that Jiang Chengcheng could never have imagined them...
"An advanced version of Truth or Dare? Are you sure?"
Off camera.
Jiang Chengcheng, with a look of doubt, confirmed with the production team again.
Seriously?! Do you think anyone would actually watch this?
"Hahaha! Miss Jiang, you don't understand! Don't underestimate this old-fashioned game; the audience doesn't care about that!"
More than that, they were eager to uncover their idol's little-known secrets! This game was just a medium; once the promotion was released, they could create a few romantic pairings, regardless of gender, yuri, BL, best friend, or love rival! That would generate tons of buzz!
The director could tell from Jiang Chengcheng's expression that she was questioning his abilities, so he quickly and confidently began to explain.
"Hahaha... whatever makes you happy..." Jiang Chengcheng laughed awkwardly after hearing the director's explanation, feeling like she was completely out of touch with the times! Are people really this extreme when making variety shows these days?!
However, how the filming takes place is not of much concern to Jiang Chengcheng. All she needs to do is perfectly play the role of a tool to promote her own hotel!
.........
About half an hour later, everything was ready.
After a burst of music.
Li Juncan and the others entered one by one.
Before the game started, everyone had to liven up the atmosphere a bit and introduce Jiang Chengcheng, the guest, and the game rules.
Jiang Chengcheng walked in front of the camera. She first introduced herself, and then started slacking off while the others chatted and joked.
