Three questions every day after traveling through a book: Has your character been ruined today?

After hanging up the phone, Meng Yuan excitedly greeted Lu Yanli's family.

Based on the staff's answer just now, Meng Yuan reasonably inferred that the agency had signed her up without her knowledge, using the video that Fang Ya had filmed last time.

The agency must have done this because of Lu Yanli's request.

Such an outrageous video was able to pass the audition, there is no doubt that it was the work of Lu Yanli.

After Meng Yuan hung up the phone with the program crew, she called her agent Fang Ya.

"Sister Fang, I will not participate in the 'Star of Tomorrow' program." Meng Yuan went straight to the point.

"Why? Didn't you already pass the audition?"

"I told you early on that I didn't want to participate, but you still secretly signed up without telling me. Of course I have the right to refuse."

"No, you didn't." Fang Ya's phone was taken away by someone else, and a strange man's voice came from the phone.

"Meng Yuan, the contract you signed with the company clearly states that you must obey the work assigned by the company. If you refuse..."

After the other party finished speaking, he deliberately prolonged the ending tone and paused for a moment before continuing:

"It's not impossible. The penalty is 100 million."

The implication is obvious: Meng Yuan must either pay 100 million yuan to terminate the contract or go and participate in this talent show.

Meng Yuan: You are so cruel!

However, on the day of the baseline assessment, Meng Yuan overheard the staff of the program team mention that the following competitions would be broadcast live and voted on by the audience.

Meng Yuan thought that even if Lu Yanli manipulated herself into entering the competition recording, when the audience voted, she would be eliminated in the first round based on her own strength and popularity.

After all, Meng Yuan’s poor singing skills are obvious to all.

Although this is the case according to normal logic, Meng Yuan always has a bad feeling.

After all, the fact that "the former financial sponsor arranged for a substitute to participate in the competition with Bai Yueguang in order to please Bai Yueguang" is itself very unreasonable.

Meng Yuan guessed that the bloody plot of the male protagonist's stand-in participating in the same program with Bai Yueguang must be a plot in the original novel.

It seems that no matter how I hide, I can't avoid the important plot that I should be involved in.

The plot was so horrific that Meng Yuan couldn't help but keep a string in his mind at all times.

During the recording of the show, you absolutely cannot have a conflict with Bai Lian.

After all, in the novel, the stand-in is punished by the male protagonist because he always makes trouble for the female protagonist.

Then as long as the stand-in doesn't go against the heroine, he should be able to escape.

The day of program recording is approaching.

Early in the morning, information about the contestants of Tomorrow's Star was revealed online, which quickly caused heated discussions:

【＠Food melon special account: Meng Yuan was photographed at the pre-recording and assessment site of the second season of Tomorrow's Star. According to people at the scene, Meng Yuan's live performance was a complete failure and there was a suspected shady plot in her participation in the show. What do you think?】

[How come there are such girls everywhere? They insist on getting on even though they know they are not good enough. Can't they just be a vase quietly? ]

[I've never heard Meng Yuan sing. Is she bad? ]

[If she sang well, her team would have promoted her extensively! ]

[It was very hard to listen to at the scene. After my sang, several mentors could no longer maintain their polite smiles, and the contestants in the audience started to criticize me.]

[So the previous rumors were true? Did Meng Yuan really take Bai Yang's place? ]

[So disgusting! @Tomorrow's Star Season 2 production team, where is the love and sincerity for music that you promoted? Doesn't your face hurt? ]

[Where did you eat the melon above? Please send me the link]

[This is not the first time Meng Yuan has done this. It can only be said that those with capital can do whatever they want.]

Meng Yuan saw this Weibo post on the way to the program recording venue.

By the time Meng Yuan saw it, there were already over a thousand comments, most of which were cursing Meng Yuan.

Meng Yuan was in mixed feelings.

This feeling is just like when I was working and I did nothing, but my boss suddenly put the blame on me.

Obviously everything was arranged by Lu Yanli and he was also a victim, but now he is being scolded by netizens.

There were a lot of moral blackmail in the comments, but Meng Yuan remained calm after reading them.

As long as I have no morals, you can't kidnap me.

Meng Yuan looked out of the car window and could already see the sea, so they should be there soon.

The recording location of "Star of Tomorrow" is on an island, and the entire recording venue was built at a huge cost for this program.

The first season last year was the boys’ season, and Su was the champion of last year’s “Star of Tomorrow”.

The huge success of the first season gave the production team confidence, and this year they launched the second season, which is designated as the girls’ season.

"Star of Tomorrow" is different from traditional talent shows that target singing and dancing idols. This show focuses more on "singing".

Last year, the selection was divided into three tracks: singing and songwriting, singing and dancing, and singing and acting (in the form of musicals), in an attempt to discover every singer who loves music and persists in singing.

This year's competition system has been adjusted to integrate the three tracks of the previous season, and two major label groups, "start" and "restart", are distinguished based on whether or not the contestants have previous stage experience.

The schedule is similar to other talent shows.

The preliminary round will be scored by the star promoters, and the first, second, third and final rounds will be recorded live by the audience. There will be short themed quizzes by the star promoters between each performance.

The innovative point that distinguishes "Star of Tomorrow" from other talent shows and its biggest publicity gimmick is: authenticity.

All stages from the preliminary round will be broadcast live.

The production team also made some innovations in the competition system this season, but Meng Yuan did not pay attention to the specific content and was not interested in it.

Because she felt that if nothing unexpected happened, she would have done it long ago.

This time, Meng Yuan's agent Fang Ya rarely went with her assistant to send Meng Yuan to the program crew's unified gathering point.

Before parting, the assistant helped Meng Yuan check if there was anything left behind.

Fang Ya came up to Meng Yuan and whispered:

"Now that we are here, we should participate in the competition well. With the opportunity to show our faces, we can eventually gain more fame."

Perhaps thinking of Meng Yuan's "heavenly sound", Fang Ya added:

"Black and red are also red!"

The contestants’ agents and assistants were not allowed to go to the island with them. Meng Yuan was the last contestant to go to the island.

As soon as I arrived on the island, my cell phone was confiscated by the program staff.

“Does it have to be that fast?”

Meng Yuan felt a little reluctant to suddenly leave his electronic pickled mustard tuber.

"The program team stipulates that mobile phones cannot be used during the competition."

The staff members explained the program arrangement in a procedural manner with polite smiles.

"The bus is over there. We will take you directly to the contestant area to prepare for the recording. When you get off the bus, put your luggage on the bus. After the first stage, we will send you all to the dormitory."

"Of course, if you are eliminated in the primary election, the bus will take you back to this port to take the boat back."

After the staff member finished speaking, the originally lively atmosphere at the scene suddenly cooled down.

Invisible tension began to spread.

The little girl standing next to Meng Yuan, who was originally looking around curiously, suddenly became listless and silently put her luggage on the car.

Meng Yuan smiled and got into the car without being affected by her mood at all. She found a seat by the window and prepared to enjoy the scenery along the way.

Just kidding, Meng Yuan hopes to be eliminated directly in the primary election.

As soon as we got off the bus, chaos began.

The contestants in Meng Yuan's car, under the guidance of the staff, first changed into their performance costumes, and then put on makeup and styling. During this time, there were staff members carrying bags to distribute lunch boxes.

The entire powder room was filled with a complex scent.

And there was always a group of people shouting nearby, which made Meng Yuan feel dizzy.

Finally, all the preparations were completed, and the staff came in and emphasized the precautions for the preliminary recording to the contestants.

At 10:00 am on Saturday, the preliminary stage assessment for the second season of "Star of Tomorrow" officially began.

The online live broadcast channel is opened simultaneously.

In a short period of time, a large number of viewers flocked in, and the barrage of comments in the discussion area was flying.

【Here I come, here I come! 】

【I finally waited for you. Fortunately, I didn’t give up! 】

[I heard that Su Ye will be the star promoter this season, so looking forward to it! ]

[This season is the girls' season! Cute sister Modo Modo~]

[The preliminary selection will be live broadcast, the rising star knows how to put on a show/dog head/dog head/dog head]

[It is said that they went straight to the first stage without any rehearsal. Is it so exciting to play here? ]

[These amateur contestants are all so good-looking! Did the program crew take appearance into consideration when they were auditioning?]

[Huang Kexin is from our school! Come on, junior! ]

 …

The first live broadcast starts with all the contestants entering the waiting area one by one.

Before each contestant enters the waiting area, the large screen in front of the waiting area will display the contestant's keywords and basic information, saving the contestants time in introducing themselves.

The first player to enter is the contestant labeled start.

Before today, the contestants had met each other only a few times, and amateurs are already nervous in front of the camera.

As a result, in the live broadcast, the start players entering the waiting area will only:

With an awkward but polite smile, he kept raising his hand to say hello and repeating "hello".

Human sorrows and joys are not interlinked.

The more awkward the atmosphere on the scene, the happier the unscrupulous netizens in the online live broadcast room were:

【i people gathering belike】

[Acting out my state when I was forced to socialize]

[Just looking at them, I have dug out a Barbie Garden fantasy castle on the soles of my feet]

[It's so funny, you guys don't know each other at all! ]

[Their embarrassment is about to overflow the screen, please come and save them! ]

[Sheniu players have entered the arena, let’s see Mianmian carry the whole game! 】

Just as the online audience was discussing enthusiastically, the restart contestants began to enter the venue.

As the restarts came in one after another, the atmosphere became noticeably more lively.

Most of the restart contestants have experience in participating in variety shows. After entering the venue, they took the initiative to start a topic, so that the atmosphere on the scene was no longer awkward.

The start contestants gradually let go of their nervousness and began to talk and laugh with each other.

Some start players even turned on the star-chasing mode on the spot.

The fans who had been waiting for Restart in the live broadcast room also kept refreshing the screen to cheer him on and recommend him to passers-by after seeing their main player appear on the stage.

The lively and harmonious atmosphere on site and in the live broadcast room was paused when the last contestant's entry prompt sounded.

I saw this displayed on the screen:

【Meng Yuan】

[Beautiful vase, bad at singing and dancing, but passionate about it]
