The straight man in the entertainment circle

At night, Lin Li was getting ready to go to bed when suddenly the system sounded.

Congratulations to the host, for completing the [Million Sales] task, successfully selling 1 million albums, and receiving 10 prize draws.

On Lin Li's birthday, the album sold 980,000 copies, breaking Zhou Lingling's record. The Royal Forest Army did not continue to increase sales. The sales of 20,000 copies were because Lin Li's record-breaking incident was on the hot search, which drove sales. It sold again in two days. More than 10,000 tickets were issued.

No matter how many Royal Guards there are, they are still a drop in the bucket compared to music lovers.

Lin Li looked at his current side tasks.

[New Year's Issue]: Be on the cover of any magazine's New Year's issue.

Lin Li felt a little bit empty when he saw this mission. If "Teenage Idol" didn't agree to his request, then his line of mission would really be in vain.

It seems we can only wait for news.

Lin Li looked at his reputation. With this record breaking and the hot search for the birthday party, his reputation increased by more than 30 million in three days.

Together with the previous reputation, he now has more than 55 million reputation.

Lin Li thought for a while, refrained from drawing a lottery, and saved the reputation for later use.

The next day was the recording day for the last episode of "Tucao Pai". Lin Li and Wu Ruobing went to the Kyoto headquarters of Penguin Video.

"Tucao Pai" is an online variety series created by Penguin Video. It is now in its third season. The first two seasons have always been the most popular. However, this season, the reputation of "Tucao Pai" has begun to decline sharply. The reason is nothing more than the jokes in it. I am too old, and the actual content of my complaints is too little. Many things are passed over briefly, and I dare not complain in depth. There is no longer the sharp complaints in the first two seasons of the Tucao Conference.

As an online variety show, four episodes of "I Am a Creator" have been played more than "Tucao Faction", which makes "Tucao Faction" feel in crisis.

This time, Li Shuai really had no choice, so he took a gamble on Lin Li.

Before the recording started, Li Shuai and Chi Zi, another complainer on the program team, stood outside the building, anxiously waiting for Lin Li's arrival.

Although Lin Li is not a superstar, "Tucao Pai" is a gathering place for some has-been celebrities. It is rare to see a popular niche like Lin Li. In addition, the program team has no idea what Lin Li is going to say, so The people on the program team are obviously still very unsure.

Li Shuai and Chi Zi took Lin Li and Wu Ruobing to the lounge. Li Shuai asked: "Lin Li, um...are you ready for today's words?"

Seeing that he was unsure, Lin Li smiled and said, "No, I can just say it on the spot."

Chi Zi has thick eyes with dreadlocks. Compared with Li Shuai's eyes, it's hard to tell whether they are open or not.

"Is this... okay?"

"It's okay for me, but I don't know if you can do it. I'm afraid you won't dare to use it then."

Wu Ruobing spoke for Lin Li: "Lin Li can write songs on the spot, but it's not enough to say a few words. Don't worry!"

When Li Shuai heard this, he nodded and said, "Let's pick up the other guests. You guys have a rest first. The makeup artist will be here soon."

Li Shuai and Chi Zi went out, and the makeup artist came after a while. Lin Li refused to put on makeup, so the makeup artist went to apply makeup on Wu Ruobing.

"Just be casual." Wu Ruobing said.

"OK."

The makeup artist opened his makeup box and started to put on Wu Ruobing's makeup. Lin Li was bored and glanced at it secretly. As he watched, Lin Li realized that he also had some ideas about makeup.

And some professional words about makeup popped up in my mind for no apparent reason.

"Wouldn't it be better to use some earth color to dye the corners of the eyes?"

Lin Li looked at it and couldn't help but say something.

The makeup artist and Wu Ruobing were both stunned. The makeup artist looked at Wu Ruobing again and said with a smile: "I'll give it a try."

The makeup artist followed Lin Li's instructions and used earth-toned dye on the corners of Wu Ruobing's eyes, and found that Wu Ruobing's eyes were brighter and more attractive.

"Well, it's pretty good. Do you think there's anything else that needs to be adjusted?" the makeup artist asked.

Lin Li listened to the makeup artist asking for advice and said quickly: "No, this is good."

Wu Ruobing stood up, stared at Lin Li and said, "Lin Li, do you have a girlfriend?"

Lin Li, a black man, had a question mark on his face and said, "No."

"Then how do you know about makeup?"

Lin Li didn't know how to answer: "Maybe I'm gifted."

Wu Ruobing frowned and looked at Lin Li: "You don't hide in your room and put on makeup for yourself, do you?"

"I'm a fucking straight man!"

"Do you know that straight men are closeted?!"

Lin Li: "..."

Lin Li thought about it and realized that he suddenly became sensitive to makeup. It should be the change brought about by the [Disguise Technique] given by the system. Of course, he couldn't tell Wu Ruobing about this.

However, Lin Li is only at the beginning of [Disguise] and doesn't know much about it. Lin Li thinks that if he upgrades to the special level, he should be almost as good as those beauty bloggers.

Lin Li remembered that there was a blogger who dressed up in a celebrity costume. Because he looked too much like him, he became a hot search topic and went viral. That blogger was almost to the point of mistaking the fake one for the real one. If his [Disguise Skill] were upgraded to the special level, he would probably be better than her. It’s pretty awesome!

Thinking of this, Lin Li suddenly felt that he needed this [Disguise Skill] very much. After all, it would be inconvenient to face Lin Li when he went out in the future. It would be convenient if he put on makeup so that no one would recognize him!

Just as he said, Lin Li called out the system and spent 1.11 million reputations to upgrade [Disguise] to the special level!

After the upgrade, Lin Li suddenly felt that it was too easy to imitate the makeup of celebrities. He could do it in minutes. Now in his eyes, everything can be made up, and all men can be made into girls!

Including myself!

Lin Li was a little surprised by the idea that suddenly appeared in his mind. Thinking of Wu Ruobing's words, "Straight men are all closeted", Lin Li suddenly felt frightened...

Li Shuai and Chi Zi are here.

"The guests are all here, the venue is ready, let's go."

"Okay, let's go."

Lin Li and Wu Ruobing followed Li Shuai and Chi Zi out of the lounge and arrived at the recording site.

The recording site of "Tucao Pai" was specially built to look like an abandoned factory. There were about a hundred spectators and about twenty guardsmen at the scene.

Lin Li met all the guests of this issue in the waiting backstage.

Guest 1: Wu Ruobing.

Guest 2: Satan.

Guest three: Li Shuai.

Guest 4: Cai Wenli.

Guest five: Bi Xuan.

Guest 6: Chi Zi.

Apart from Wu Ruobing and Cai Wenli, it can be said that Lin Li didn't know any of the six guests. However, Lin Li had a good memory and these people were somewhat famous. Lin Li had seen them inadvertently several times before and remembered them.

It's probably because Bixuan came here last season and it was very effective and cheap.

Several people met one by one backstage, and Lin Li chatted with Cai Wenli for a long time.

"Lin Li, the words I'm going to use to complain about you later are a bit harsh, so don't worry about it," Cai Wenli said.

Lin Li smiled and said, "No, I might be more cruel. Just don't be angry."

The lights on the scene flashed and the cheers started. It was obvious that the scene was ready. The host Zhang Shaokun stood in the crowd and started today's hosting.

"Welcome everyone to the final episode of Season 3 of "Tucao Pai". Here are our guests."

"I don't want to introduce these two, come up yourself, Li Shuai, Chi Zi!"

Amid everyone's laughter, Li Shuai and Chi Zi took the lead on the stage.

"Guest Cai Wenli!"

"Bixuan!"

…

The guests came on stage one by one amid Zhang Shaokun's introduction.

"Seeing Wu Ruobing, I think you all have guessed who the main star of this issue is, right?"

The whole audience shouted: "Lin Li!"

"I would like to invite Lin Li, the host of this issue!"

Lin Li walked onto the stage, and the audience burst into warm applause.

The guests sat on the sofa on the right, and the host sat on a red sofa on the left. Lin Li came on stage, shook hands with Zhang Shaokun, and then sat down in his seat.

Several girls at the scene kept screaming.

"Okay, okay, okay!"

Zhang Shaokun walked to the middle of the field and looked at the girls in the audience with disgust, and said, "Girls, be more reserved. I know I'm handsome, but I'm a serious host."

There were boos below.

Zhang Shaokun was obviously used to it and was unmoved.
