The reality show "Shrimp Transformation" is so outrageous and absurd it's beyond beli

"It's lunchtime now, so we'll pause our recording session for now. Thank you to the very hospitable villagers of Lanxi for preparing such a delicious lunch for our guests."

Staff came up to clean the site.

The male guests helped out, while the female guests helped serve the food.

After taking their seats, everyone said in unison, "Thank you for the warm hospitality from our friends in Lanxi. Welcome to Lanxi Ancient Town for our viewers and fans."

As soon as Director Ma picked up his chopsticks, everyone else started eating too.

Xia Yu was very hungry, and the food was indeed delicious, so she couldn't help but eat heartily.

I thought I had already disregarded my image, but Shang Xu and Xu Jianian across from me were even more impressive, wolfing down their food as if afraid the other would steal it.

"I picked it up first!"

Shang Xu used both hands to firmly grasp the last large shrimp on the plate with his chopsticks.

"Nonsense! I saw it first!"

Not to be outdone, Xu Jianian spoke with her mouth bulging with rice, spitting out a grain of rice with every word, which made Shang Xu look disgusted.

Neither of them would give in, and in the end, the shrimp was split in two by two pairs of chopsticks.

Xu Jianian quickly grabbed the half of the shrimp with more meat.

Shang Xu: "Childish."

The two ate half a bowl, while Fu Jingnian, sandwiched between them, was still picking up food with his chopsticks, one small bite at a time.

Just like him, Shen Youyou stared at the dishes for a long time before picking them out and then put down her chopsticks.

Wow, this looks delicious! I've already bought my ticket and am on my way to Lanxi Ancient Town. I'm going to have a chance encounter with them!

Are Shang Shadiao and Xu Dawan reincarnated starving ghosts? Handsome guys, please use your faces wisely, eat slowly, no one's going to steal your food.

[Look at how carefully Shen Youyou and Fu Jingnian are eating, do they not like it or are they disgusted by it?]

[Youyou has a small appetite to begin with and needs to manage her figure, so she definitely can't eat too much. I'm speechless at what you people are thinking without thinking.]

"Tangtang, this dish is delicious."

Li Yan pointed to a plate of stir-fried vegetables and pork and recommended it to Duan Xiaotang.

Duan Xiaotang picked up a piece of food with her chopsticks, put it in the bowl, and tasted it.

"It's delicious, but not spicy enough."

She has always been able to eat spicy food since she was a child. When Li Yan was little, he would cry from the spiciness of her food.

"Try this lion's head meatball, I really like it."

She ate most of the lion's head meatballs.

"it is good."

Li Yan, without suspicion, picked up a piece of lion's head meatball.

The camera focused on the food's unique features: the lion's head meatballs were round and plump, with a glossy brown-red color that made one's mouth water upon closer inspection.

[Good heavens, this isn't a dating show, it's turned into a food program! I'm so hungry, Director Ma, I hate you, you made me cry!]

Why does Tangtang's smile give off a feeling of a conspiracy about to succeed? Be careful, Actor Li! Protect her!

Li Yan took a big bite, the pungent spiciness covering her entire taste buds.

"Cough cough, why... is it so spicy!"

His eyes widened, and he frantically searched for water with one hand.

"Why are you still the same as when you were a kid? You can't even handle mild spice."

Seeing that Li Yan choked, Duan Xiaotang could no longer laugh, so she quickly handed Li Yan the water she had prepared earlier.

Mu Qing then tried a piece; the lion's head meatball was tender and juicy, and every bite was full of rich meaty aroma.

"It's really delicious, and the spiciness is just right for me."

Mu Qing praised.

Xia Yu and her three gluttonous friends, drawn by the aroma, rushed over and devoured the food in no time.

Xia Yu reached over, took the plate away, and poured the remaining sauce into a bowl to mix with rice.

Li Yan wasn't angry at all. He smiled sheepishly and said, "But it really is quite delicious. The meat is firm and elastic."

He wanted to eat another piece, but when he looked down, the plate was gone.

[Tangtang has gone astray, playing pranks on Actor Li! We're totally shipping Rock Sugar Pear!]

[Those three gluttonous cats over there are a bit outrageous! How can they eat so much? Have they not eaten for days? They must have stunned Director Ma.]

[My dear Muqing, eat your food properly! You're getting so skinny, you're practically skin and bones! Waaah, learn from Xia Yu and eat with more effort!]

[Sister Yu's eating power is amazing! I saw the behind-the-scenes footage of "Ordinary Heroes" last time, and she ate two boxed lunches by herself and never gained weight. I'm so envious!]

Director Ma paused, thinking to himself that he hadn't mistreated them.

……

After lunch, the production team had the guests answer some questions from fans in the live stream chat.

Why did Mu Qing decide to participate in the dating reality show?

"My reason for participating in the dating reality show is very simple. The variety shows I've been on before were all of a relatively one-dimensional type. I also had a deep collaboration with Director Ma in last year's 'Singing God System,' so I wanted to try a new type of show this time."

Mu Qing's answer was impeccable, but her eyes couldn't help but unconsciously dart towards Xu Jianian's direction.

Xu Jianian's golden lion head stood up straight as if struck by lightning. Xia Yu said he looked like a jinx from a TV series.

"Forget about being a jinx, I'll definitely be the mop star."

He spoke with such pride, but after he finished, he and Shang Xu stared at each other in the corner.

Fu Jingnian, standing among them, felt utterly hopeless.

Fu Jingnian: Who knows how strong a heart it takes to be sandwiched between two idiots?

He wanted to ask Director Ma if his injury could be considered a work-related injury.

Why is Xia Yu on a dating reality show again?

"I went on the dating reality show simply to spite those haters who can't stand me but can't do anything about it. They're the last people who want me to have good resources, but I happen to have them. Next time I'm going to join an S+ level drama. Haters, save your two or three thousand yuan salary and buy more blood pressure medication. I'm waiting for you guys to boost my popularity when the show airs."

Xia Yu became more and more excited as she spoke, while the haters in front of the screen were so angry that they wanted to smash the screen but couldn't bring themselves to do it.

That's truly killing someone by breaking their spirit.

[It was Tangtang's 25th birthday a couple of days ago. What's the most unforgettable gift she's ever received?]

"There are many unforgettable gifts, but the most unforgettable one is my 15th birthday. At that time, I had only been in the industry for a little over a year, and I had very few works and even fewer fans. I had just finished filming a scene in the water that day. I was very cold and tired. On my way back to the hotel, a fan had been waiting outside for a long time in the cold weather. When he saw me come out, he was very excited and gave me his blessings. He also gave me a voice recorder, saying that I could record my unhappy things."

Duan Xiaotang finds this memory as unforgettable as if it happened recently.

"He was there for me during the lowest point of my life. He hasn't appeared since my acting career started to get back on track. I don't know if this fan is watching the live stream now. I want to tell him that I'm no longer the little girl who would cry over a mistake. I wish you a happy life and I'm very grateful for your companionship."

Duan Xiaotang stood up with red eyes and bowed to the camera.

She only briefly mentioned those years; only she and her longtime fans know the hardships she went through to get to where she is today.

Li Yan, who was listening attentively, had a slight change in expression. He smiled softly, seemingly lost in thought.

[Tangtang is referring to that fan site admin with the Weibo name "不知风月" (Unknown Wind and Moon), right? It's been a long time since we've seen her update her Weibo.]

[I wonder if Fengyue is a male fan? Tangtang's staff revealed that Fengyue is probably focused on real life now. Thank you, Fengyue, for keeping Tangtang company for us Bingtang fans. I wish him a windfall!]

[Tangtang almost cried as she spoke. The best Tangtang in the world, thank you Fengyue-ge.]
