This celebrity became even more popular after being exposed of having multiple girlfriends-Chapter 366 - 297: Don’t Overstate on the Boss’s Show_2

Super Challenge?

"It’s a popular variety show in South Korea, oh, right, Li Zhengxun is a regular guest on Super Challenge."

Hmm?

Ah?

Mu was surprised, "Don’t they know about my situation with Li Zhengxun?"

"Of course they know, one of their senior executives is a fan of yours, boss. How could they not know! It must be deliberate to create more buzz."

Shu Mei seemed quite excited, "Boss, are you going on this show to really show Li Zhengxun a thing or two?"

Mu looked at her speechlessly, guest stars going to outshine the regular ones, huh? Normally, isn’t it the regular guests who bully the guest stars?

Shu Mei clearly had blind faith in her boss already, thinking that with his variety skills, he could dominate even if the others were regular guests!

She thoroughly explained the show to Mu, "This show is somewhat like Star Agency which you participated in before, also without a fixed theme. However, it’s not commissioned by outsiders, but the program team sets a theme each episode, and all the guests compete around that theme."

"The next episode’s theme is the city escape game. Yameng Company thinks this kind of theme suits you, boss, and if you participate in this episode, it would make for a stronger impact."

City escape?

"Yes, they haven’t sent over a detailed script, but the general idea is the police in the city chasing the fugitive guests. The guests need to figure out various ways to reach the escape point successfully."

Does this kind of relatively free stage really suit him?

Mu thought for a while, "When is the filming?"

"The specific time is not yet decided, and they’re still arranging the guests’ schedules, but it’s roughly next week," Shu Mei said.

"Then, I’ll go ask Director Lin later about the filming plans for next week to see if I can leave the set."

It was something previously agreed, if there was schedule availability, it could be taken on sooner too.

Besides this show, there were also details about endorsements to discuss.

"Yameng Company plans to announce their endorsement plans right after your appearance on the show, and they’d like you to attend the offline announcement event."

Hmm?

Wasn’t it agreed beforehand not to participate in offline events?

Mu looked questioningly at Shu Mei.

Shu Mei, knowing what kind of person her boss was, quickly added, "They are willing to add more money, an additional two million, just for one morning."

More money...

Mu clicked his tongue, two million for a morning, now that’s indeed tempting.

Yameng Company was really generous.

But probably because it’s a new product line they have high hopes for, and they are expecting a lot from his endorsement effect.

If the results are not as expected, or not up to standard... don’t expect capitalists, especially South Korean chaebols to genuinely connect emotionally.

Mu shook his head, then nonchalantly agreed.

Having discussed the South Korean endorsement, his work was still not over.

It seemed possibly coordinated, as Legendary Voice also approached him.

They were about to enter the breakout round and needed Mu to re-enter the competition.

After Mu withdrew previously, although the heat dropped quite a bit and no longer constantly topped the trending searches,

thanks to Mo Mo stepping in, it still maintained some buzz.

Plus, with this kind of program format, it also gained a number of regular viewers.

Although people verbally said that these types of nationalistic shows were disgusting and uninteresting,

physically... who doesn’t enjoy seeing their local singers clash with international artists, and even winning thrillingly?

After Mu withdrew, Mo Mo carried on his momentum. Although not scoring wildly like before, he still topped each round,

always scoring a few to several points higher than other contestants.

Just...

"You’re saying, He Jie, Cai Wanhai, and Yue Li are all eliminated, and now there are three South Korean singers left in the competition?" Mu stroked his chin.

"Yes, now many Korean fans online are saying that the Chinese entertainment circle is utterly rotten. It’s fine for locals, but putting them up against others internationally, they just can’t compete and only rely on one or two key figures," Shu Mei nodded.

Well, that wasn’t exactly wrong; the Chinese entertainment circle was indeed rotten, objectively speaking, there was a gap in professionalism compared to other regions.

But isn’t your Korean entertainment circle rotten too, just in another dimension? Singers and celebrities are just playthings for the chaebols, with unending shocking scandals you wouldn’t believe belong in modern society.

Hmm, think about it, perhaps the more developed, the more rotten?

Like Hollywood...

Mu sat there, muttering, "Does Wu Feng want me to pick the next South Korean singer?"

"Yes, the whole thing is blown out of proportion now, and Star City TV is under a lot of pressure."

Even though it’s a show that rides on popularity, a state-owned TV station really shouldn’t be found singing praises for foreign singers.

"Alright, I’ll pick one when the time comes."

The schedule for Legendary Voice was slated after the endorsement from South Korea; there was still plenty of time.

Having sorted out work matters, Mu, with no scenes to shoot that morning, found a spot and pulled out a black language textbook to study.

While secretly taking today’s snaps, Shu Mei curiously glanced at the book in his hand and exclaimed with surprise, "Boss, are you learning French!?"

"Yep."

"Boss, I minored in French in college! You can ask me if you want to learn!" Shu Mei was thrilled.

A brother seriously studying is twice as handsome!

"No need, I can manage on my own."

Asking someone takes too long, and you have to ask one by one.

Then Shu Mei just watched Mu quickly flipping through the book.

Her smiling face slightly stiffened.

But she quickly perked up.

No worries, a brother who seriously studies is still very handsome.

"Boss, I really can help; I even planned to study abroad in France."

To prove her proficiency, Shu Mei blurted out, "Mon frère est si beau."

She spoke with a slight Chinese accent.

Then she looked at Mu expectantly, hoping he would ask her what it meant so she could explain it slowly, maybe chat about the various grammatical uses of the phrase.

But Mu just glanced at her... freёnovelkiss.com

"Appelez-moi patron."

His flawless French rolled off his tongue.

Shu Mei: "...."

???

Shu Mei’s pupils shook, and she looked at Mu in shock.

She had just said in French that her brother was very handsome, and then Mu replied, asking her to call him boss...

Wait, you actually know it!

And your accent is even more authentic!?

Shu Mei was a bit rattled and couldn’t help asking, "Boss, when did you learn this?"

"I haven’t really learned it yet; I just understand what I’ve seen and heard, not what I haven’t."

Such a humble brother!

With such an authentic accent and understanding to boot, he’s practically already fluent.

Still unable to hold back, Shu Mei asked, "Boss, how long have you been studying? How come I never saw you study before?"

That doesn’t seem right, counting French, doesn’t this mean my new brother already knows Cantonese, Russian, English, and French?

Cantonese can be explained by his hometown being near the province, naturally picked up from daily use.

But when did he learn these other three languages?

Mu briefly pondered, "All together, it must have been almost seven or eight days now."

So he has been studying for seven or eight days, no wonder he’s so impressive...

Shu Mei’s face stiffened bit by bit, and after a few seconds of silence, she earnestly said, "Boss, please don’t say this on the show. Just knowing French is impressive enough. Boasting like that could backfire and affect how people view you."

Hmm?

Who’s boasting?

It’s been just seven or eight days!

Mu hummed to himself as he looked at his employee.

Unaware, Shu Mei, still amazed, said, "Boss, you’re too incredible, how can you learn so many languages?"

"But boss, why didn’t you learn either Japanese or Korean? Aren’t those used more often?" she asked curiously.

Mu smiled at her, "Is it possible that I’ve already finished those?"
