Chapter 190: Chapter 19: The Variety Show Control Group Refuses to Be Cannon Fodder (Part 19)

Barrage comments couldn’t affect Jiang Lai, she continued to focus seriously on the questions in front of her.

[Why can Jiang Lai use a tablet? Weren’t all electronic devices taken away?]

[The show crew said that in special circumstances, it can be used on camera, Jiang Lai is using it to tutor Yangyang with homework]

[No wonder she can ask questions so quickly, turns out she’s copying from online]

Yangyang’s foundation was even worse than Jiang Lai imagined, he could even make mistakes on the simplest single-digit addition and subtraction, counting with his fingers.

As for English, unlike other kids on the show who could communicate in English without barriers, Yangyang couldn’t utter a single word and was completely clueless about the English questions he was asked.

The same goes for Chinese Pinyin, he could write "mama" in two different forms, both of which were wrong.

"I don’t understand this."

"I don’t know this either."

This time, Jiang Lai was surprisingly patient. Just when the barrage thought she would lose her temper and drag Yangyang out to stand as a punishment, Jiang Lai patiently explained the simple questions over and over again.

"Think about it, there are nine little monsters that came to Earth. After Ultraman appeared and defeated six, how many little monsters are left?"

"Three!"

"In the same way, if three out of the nine little monsters had baby monsters, how many monsters does Ultraman need to defeat to protect us now?"

After a moment of hesitation, Yangyang excitedly blurted out.

"Twelve!"

And so, until Yangyang figured out one eight plus seven correctly on his own, Jiang Lai gave him a big hug.

"Isn’t that amazing! You can add eight and seven now; if you memorize the multiplication table, you’ll be even more incredible!"

Yangyang’s face turned red; he hadn’t thought studying could be this fun. He focused even more and was still pondering over the previous problem when it was time to gather.

"Alright, we agreed to study for two hours a day, once during the day and once at night, no more!"

"Why not! I want to study more!"

"No, if you study too much, it’s gonna cost money."

"I have money! My uncle has money!"

[Hahahahahaha, when will this endless PUA ever stop?]

[Yangyang acts like such an innocent fool, so cute]

[Jiang Lai, enough already, bullying a kid, not very impressive, why don’t you try bullying me]

[Can I send my kid who hates studying over for you to teach for a couple of days? I’ll pay]

[Me, me me, I want to!]

[+1, send my brother over]

[+10086, send my son over]

[I’ll send myself over, Jiang Lai, please teach me!]

In a parent-child program, there’s bound to be learning software advertisements, and originally this ad wasn’t finalized for whom to give the live read endorsement. But now, Jiang Lai managed to ride a new wave of popularity by getting the troublesome kid to study, so the live read was naturally assigned to her by the director.

"The lines are a bit long, you still need to study with him tonight, log into this software on the tablet and read the lines while you’re at it."

Jiang Lai looked at the whole sheet of advertisement lines in front of her, then nodded.

"Alright."

"Seven in the evening is peak traffic time, can you memorize it by then?"

"Mm."

"Okay, I’ll help drive some traffic to your live stream then, do your best."

After the day’s activities ended, at seven in the evening, Jiang Lai opened the learning software on the tablet, looked into the camera, and started reciting the ad lines. She smoothly and naturally delivered over a thousand words, without any sign of memorization, and even added a few embellishments of her own, delivering it in a way that didn’t feel like an ad at all and was totally acceptable to the audience. Instantly, the software’s download numbers soared, the effect was so good even the advertisers didn’t expect their money was so well spent!

After the live read ended, Jiang Lai naturally continued working on the tablet while Yangyang was completely absorbed in his Ultraman-monster-battling learning world, unable to extricate himself. The whole live stream was completely silent; the barrage of comments gradually reduced, not because the popularity decreased, but because many were influenced by the atmosphere, moms went to discipline their kids back at home, and students couldn’t help but get up to tackle problems themselves, turning the live stream into an online study meeting, the atmosphere was great.

Mo Wanwan only found out when she got her phone that evening, that the live read initially designated for her had been snagged by Jiang Lai.

This time she lost her composure, staring at the assistant director, repeatedly questioning.

"It was decided before the show that it would be mine; did you do this on purpose?" 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

"What do you mean by giving me the lines first only to have Jiang Lai do it in advance?"

"Are you treating me like a fool?"

The assistant director felt a little guilty too, but he hadn’t expected Jiang Lai to tutor Yangyang during the live stream, let alone getting such high engagement. The director made an autocratic decision on the spot, no one could change it.

"I had no choice either, and I assure you this decision was made spontaneously, I didn’t foresee..."

"Stop it, if she didn’t know in advance, how could she purposely teach Yangyang? If she didn’t know beforehand, how could she memorize such a long piece of ad copy!"

More fluently than the one she practiced for over a month, and it might have been arranged since the program prep phase!

The assistant director didn’t know what to say, Mo Wanwan wouldn’t listen, nothing he said worked.

Got himself into trouble joining this mess, and now even the director’s starting to doubt him because he often opposes the director, being unappreciated by both sides and getting blamed unjustly.

It’s just a favor owed, why act so subservient and look at her face?

The assistant director was also angry, saying with a straight face.

"Jiang Lai is popular because she is capable, maybe you should self-reflect, stop begrudging others’ success all the time."

"You..."

Before she could say anything, the assistant director turned around and left, even his back looked angry.

Mo Wanwan realized she lost her composure, annoyed the assistant director, and lost the endorsement deal. The more she thought about it, the angrier she got, Jiang Lai even had the audacity to endorse learning software, where did she get the face?

Looking at her phone, she opened the show’s forum and posted a comment.

[Does the internet have no memory? Her previous antics of being a diva and hitting cameramen, as well as constantly plagiarizing other people’s work, have you all forgotten about these?]

Soon, many rushed in to comment below.

[What past antics? How come I don’t know? Share some links so we can all see.]

[There’s always haters unable to accept others’ success, aren’t we a harmonious space? Baseless malicious attempts to manipulate narratives will be blocked!]

[There’s no evidence of diva antics, as for plagiarism, are you talking about Mo Wanwan? I don’t think she’s plagiarizing Mo Wanwan, on the contrary, I think she’s much prettier than Mo Wanwan.]
