This is the entertainment industry! No tantrums or shouting allowed!

Director Cui felt like the sky had fallen!

He then performed a Sichuan opera face-changing act for the viewers in the live stream.

"Old Cheng, we were colleagues after all..." Director Cui clutched his chest, "How could you be so heartless!"

Director Cheng calmly replied, "Otherwise what? We go to rescue you one by one, only to be captured one by one? Wouldn't that be like the Calabash Brothers trying to save their grandfather?"

Wen Yao quickly changed tactics, patiently persuading him: "Don't you want Director Cui to be treated better? As long as you show enough sincerity, Director Cui will no longer be a beast of burden, but an emperor!"

"That's right! Whether you become a beast of burden or an emperor is entirely up to you!" Gu Yan shouted even more enthusiastically than a live-streaming e-commerce influencer, "Director Cheng, you'd better think this through!"

Director Cheng pondered for a few seconds: "How about this, I'll have the production team vote to hear everyone's opinions, and then the minority will abide by the majority."

Director Cui breathed a sigh of relief.

"This is it! Today I'm going to be crowned emperor!"

In the entire variety show industry, the benefits and treatment he provides to his staff are among the best.

vote?

Guaranteed to win!

Viewers became curious and flooded the live stream with messages demanding that the voting process be made public.

Director Cheng decided to hold a live voting session.

The staff members were all wearing masks and anonymously put their written ballots into the box.

Subsequently, dedicated staff tallied the votes.

10 votes were cast for Choi to become emperor.

127 votes were cast for making Director Cui a beast of burden.

Director Cui: ? ? ?

Is this scientific?

"I don't believe it! It's a cover-up! There must be something fishy going on!"

"The voting results are open, fair, and transparent." Director Cheng cleared his throat. "I voted for you to be my slave not because I have a problem with you, but because I thought it would be funny. I believe most of my colleagues felt the same way."

Director Cui: "..."

Is it fun for him to be treated like a slave here?

Seeing that the negotiations had failed, Wen Yao sighed with some regret.

"It's a pity the production team didn't send the men in black to rescue us, otherwise there would be a continuous supply of labor on the island..."

Although we didn't get any supplies by exchanging Director Cui, at least we gained a worker, so it wasn't a complete loss.

The silence from the live audience was deafening.

Are you looking for: Pirates of the Caribbean?

Question pirates, understand pirates, become a pirate, and transcend pirates!

[They even dared to kidnap the director! Mei Bao and the guests on "Everyone's a Star" are truly talented!]

[Haha, who would dare invite these people to record variety shows again? They're all top-tier bosses!]

[Not necessarily. The escape room reality show next door, "The Great Detective," might be a match for them. The guests on "All-Star" seem to have maxed-out physical abilities, but their intelligence doesn't seem to be a significant advantage, right?]

Unexpectedly, the official Weibo account of "The Great Detective is Here" quickly updated with a post:

[Detective Here V]: Please let me go!

The accompanying image is a meme of someone kneeling and begging for mercy.

The guests from "The Great Detective" flooded the comments section with messages like, "Please have mercy!"

The fans' rebellious spirit was immediately aroused.

No!

What's so scary about it!

They're just a bunch of brutes. You're a group of highly intelligent people, why are you afraid of them?

Fueled by fans, the Weibo post gained increasing popularity.

The official Weibo account of "All Stars" responded to a Weibo post:

[Everyone's in the midst of survival V]: Let's stick together~

The accompanying image is a heart-shaped emoji.

The entire detective team was shocked.

Don't come any closer!
