Figure Skating: Waltz on Ice

The photography team responsible for filming the AG team set up their cameras well in advance.

The executive director asked his assistant, "Has Xiaosai arrived yet?"

The assistant beside him shook his head. "He hasn't arrived yet, but I just contacted him and he's on his way."

The executive director nodded. "Keep an eye on him and let me know when he arrives."

Assistant: "Yes, Director."

……

"Not going to say anything?"

As soon as Xiao Sa arrived at the recording building, the director pulled her into the conference room, where she was told that Du Liangchen was sick.

"If Du Liangchen is sick and can't speak, does that mean he has to withdraw from the recording?"

Director: No, we have already discussed with his team and agreed to continue recording. The doctor advised that he should not speak for the time being.

As you know, this is a team game that requires communication and cooperation, which might affect teamwork. You'll have to figure out a way to handle this.

Xiao Sa was puzzled and frowned, looking at the director. "Why not replace him after all this? Why let him continue filming? Isn't this a joke?"

"What are you saying? What are we recording this show for? First, to make money, and second, to increase the popularity of sports and esports."

"Du Liangchen is sick now, but his hand is fine. Besides, can you find anyone as popular as him and Mei Jing?"

Xiao Sa looked the director up and down, who spoke these words without batting an eye, and only then did he clearly see what kind of people these were.

They're shameless for chasing popularity and making money; they have absolutely no bottom line.

The executive director could easily see the disdain in his eyes and glared at him fiercely.

"Don't look at me like that. I'm just a working animal like you. This is the director's order. Do you think the director wouldn't let Du Liangchen go because he didn't negotiate to leave the recording?"

"Besides, I only told you about this as soon as I found out. I'm telling you all this because we were high school classmates, so please don't tell anyone else!"

He patted him on the shoulder with a flourish, "Thanks, bro."

The executive director waved his hand away, "Alright, stop disgusting me and get lost."

"While you still have time, quickly think about where to put Du Liangchen so that AG can win. Otherwise, you won't be able to get any highlights, and the post-production team will cut your AG's screen time."

His sharp tongue but kind heart makes me want to laugh.

He took a deep breath, opened the conference room door with a flourish, and calmly returned to the AG training room.

"Achoo! Achoo!"

Du Liangchen and the others were waiting for their train after getting off the high-speed train when they suddenly sneezed twice.

Ma Cheng frowned and handed him a tissue. "What's wrong? Have you caught a cold?"

Du Liangchen waved his hand, blew his nose, and guessed that the production team was probably talking about him.

Liu Yue looked up from her phone. "Okay, let's go, the car's here."

Hearing the car arrive, Du Liangchen's heart skipped a beat, and his limbs stiffened slightly as he followed the others out.

Knowing his situation, Yan Peng opened the car windows for ventilation when he got in the car to check him over.

The driver watched his every move through the rearview mirror but did not stop him, because it was something the other party had communicated with him beforehand after he accepted the order.

As the car drove along the road, Du Liangchen leaned close to the window, the howling wind making him squint.

Liu Yue: "We'll be there once we cross this street. Liangchen, close the window. There are fans all over there. It's not appropriate for them to see you like this."

Du Liangchen naturally knew that Liu Yue was right, and reluctantly rolled up the car window.

Sure enough, as soon as the car turned around, we saw a group of people waiting at the street corner.

The driver was afraid of hitting people and dared not drive fast, which made it difficult for Du Liangchen, who wanted to get off the bus as soon as possible.

This episode is about the team elimination rounds; whether they can advance to the semifinals depends entirely on tomorrow's match.
