On the Thousand Postures Reconstructed by the Scumbags - CH 3
If Su Ge was the big favorite to win the championship this year, then Xi Nian was an absolute underdog. Netizens may bet on Yu Fan for second place, Meng Qianlin in third place, and even the fourth and fifth place are possible, but this definitely does not include Xi Nian.
Su Ge’s fans had already made up their minds about the appearance of their idols killing the Quartet, but they didn’t expect him to be bested by a dark horse halfway and that caught them off guard. Although there are still three categories of the games and it may be possible to save the situation, it seems a little… pendulous?
Since the beginning of the 《Star Movement Association》, there has never been an instance of the top number one being triumphed over by the number one in the bottom. Considering this case, it will definitely become a big joke if it spreads out.
Some viewers have already begun to inquire, and the audience communicated in whispers: “Why haven’t we seen him before? Is he a newcomer who has just debuted?”
“He’s so handsome!!! That waist and that leg, I’m dead!!! Sisters, are you fans of Xi Nian? Is there a group, pull me!!!”
People don’t know if it was a premonition that this event would be quite a high topic, but even the camera position was deliberately turned to give a shot to Xi Nian’s fans.
The fake powder1 that Sun Ming spent two hundred dollars to hire: “……”
Damn, they are just here to be responsible for paddling and supporting the field. There is still this kind of operation?!
What’s happening? They suddenly felt a little flattered all of sudden……
Under the attention of the scorching sight around them, several water armies bit the bullet and held up the support light sign. They intuitively encountered the biggest challenge of their careers. For those who want to join the group or ask for the group number, they can only look left and right while pretending not to hear.
Hell, how could they know what Xi Nian’s fan base is!!!
Su Ge’s fans kept repeating the word ‘be calm’ inside their hearts. ‘The game is not over yet, it is too early to say anything. Maybe this guy, Xi Nian, has a lot of shit luck. Let’s talk about it in the second half.’
Strictly speaking, Su Ge’s performance was not bad. In the end, he also hit a tenth ring, and it was not difficult to catch up. The decisive points were still concentrated in the next three categories.
Xi Nian’s right hand was injured a few days ago, and at this time there was already a faint dull pain. Taking advantage of the few seconds of rest, his gaze inadvertently swept across the auditorium, and when he caught a glimpse of a hooded teenager sitting in the corner, he couldn’t help but squint—
Lu Xingzhe……
Yes, how could he be missing from this kind of celebrity gathering occasion.
The other party was wearing a black baseball cap, and the upper half of his face was in the shadow of the brim, which made it difficult to see his expression. All Xi Nian could discern was his tall nose and superior lip shape. He sat in a position, fiddling with his camera, and probably not finding the desired lens, he finally clasped his arms together then carelessly casted his eyes to the center of the venue—
The archery area has already started the second category of competition.
The hottest celebrities in this season’s 《Star Movement Association》 are Shen Xilin and Su Ge. If you want to find an explosive topic, you can only find them. It’s a pity that the management team behind Shen Xilin was tightly protecting him, so people basically cannot catch anything wrong. This caused the paparazzi and the media to be more willing to target the latter.
Xi Nian thought to himself that Lu Xingzhe did not lose his identity as a paparazzi at all. He still liked to stay in a corner where no one was paying attention. Just like in his previous life, the camera will not leave his hand. Whichever star is targeted at by his lens, 99% of the time will be a receiver of bad luck.
Su Ge was actually already a little uneasy, feeling that something was vaguely out of his control, but at the referee’s signal, he could only continue with the second category of PKs with Xi Nian.
The midfield did not give too much rest time. As the number of rounds increased, the arm muscles became sore and numb, strength was gradually lost, and accuracy would also decrease. Su Ge’s second set of results was obviously not as good as the first performance: he shot at eighth, ninth and eighth ring, respectively.
As for Xi Nian, his target eyes seemed to be always focused on the same position.
Ten.
Ten.
It’s still the tenth ring!
The stability of those hands was incredible. Even the referee glanced at it frequently. The sound of exclamation or sighing on the field did not seem to have any effect on Xi Nian. Obviously, he was in his twenties and was a good age, but he has the calm and restraint of a thirty years old. There is no trace of an adolescent rashness or recklessness on his body. It is extremely contradictory, but it has a deadly attraction.
This man is a bit exciting.
Lu Xingzhe looked at the little-known little star next to Su Ge, hooked his lips, and unconsciously came up with this somewhat playful thought in his mind, but it dissipated in a moment.
No matter how fresh and bright people are, when they enter the big dye tank of the entertainment industry, they will eventually become mediocre and vulgar without exception. No one can avoid it.
The results of Su Ge and Xi Nian have gradually widened, and anyone with a discerning eye can see that if this situation continues, Su Ge will lose without a doubt. Su Ge’s agent was pacing back and forth in a hurry in the outfield, and he was obviously caught off guard. He couldn’t imagine what kind of storm it would cause after the show was broadcast.
Su Ge was still so young, and under such high pressure, his back was soaked with sweat. He avoided the camera, gave Xi Nian a slightly gloomy warning look, and moved his lips silently: “Don’t show off in front of me. You should consider the consequences……”
What can Xi Nian even do if he wins this game? Su Ge was the newcomer that the company spent a lot of resources and energy to hold. His popularity and qualifications are already there, and they will never take risks to let go of him just because Xi Nian’s momentum has improved slightly.
Cultivating a newcomer not only has to take certain risks, but it also takes too much time.
Sun Ming had already received a call from a high-level person. His original expression of joy instantly became chagrin exasperation. He stood in the dark and made a gesture to Xi Nian. He frowned and shook his head. The meaning was very clear.
Don’t shoot more ten points.
The company’s top executives didn’t want him to suppress Su Ge’s limelight, at least not too hard.
Xi Nian looked at Sun Ming, his eyes sneering for a moment, but it was not known if the latter noticed his emotions as he still emphasized the gesture again with a warning in his eyes. This time, the frown was deeper and there was no room for rejection.
Lu Xingzhe, with sharp eyes, inadvertently noticed this scene, raised the camera and pressed the shutter thoughtfully.
At this time, the cheers on the field became hot for a while.
“Xi Nian! Come on! Xi Nian! Come on!”
“Ten rings, ten rings!”
“Another tenth ring!”
Su Ge sniffed with disdain in his heart, but did not let anyone see it. At this time, the third category of competition had already started. He forcibly set his mind, staring at the inner circle of the tenth ring in front of him, and then pulled his bow and aimed. The idea of trying to overpower Xi Nian in his heart became more and more stronger, but unfortunately, he still only hit an eighth ring.
There were some boos on the field, but not many, as the fans were still cheering him on, showing his popularity.
When it was Xi Nian’s turn to open the bow, the crowd’s attention was focused on him, but for some reason, he didn’t shoot the arrow as neatly and decisively as the previous few times. He aimed at the target for a few seconds, and then slowly put it down.
Not only because of Sun Ming who gave him desperate hand signals outside the field, but also because of the faint tearing pain coming from the ligaments of his wrist.
If he wanted to hit another tenth ring, it was not impossible but Xi Nian’s contract with the agency has not yet expired, and if he went against their wishes this time, he is more likely to be blocked later, which is undoubtedly a fatal blow for artists on the rise.
In a short moment, Xi Nian seemed to have figured out the pros and cons and he gave Sun Ming an expressionless look before re-drawing his bow, his arm muscles tensed again, and his aiming point moved delicately between the tenth and ninth ring.
One doesn’t know if the few seconds of pause in the middle gave something away, or if his bow pulling was not as strong as the previous times, it made Su Ge’s fans begin to whisper.
“Why doesn’t he shoot arrows?”
“The strength is not good enough, I saw his hand shaking when he was casting the screen just now, what’s the use of trying to be strong in front, he’s not even as steady as Su Ge.”
“He really thinks he can hit the tenth ring every time ah, he’s daydreaming.”
The sound of those distant or near chatter came from far away, the words were a bit blurred, making it difficult for people to hear them. Xi Nian’s fingertips moved slightly, finally releasing the bow string only to hear a muffled whoosh. Then there was an extra arrow in the yellow circle area on the target.━
But it was not the tenth ring but the ninth one.
The sound of the radio announcing the target clearly reached everyone’s ears: “Number 9, Xi Nian, the first arrow of the third category, nine points.”
Before the words left their mouths, those who were expecting him to hit the tenth ring couldn’t help but look at each other with disappointment, while on the contrary, Su Ge’s fans were relieved as if a huge mountain had been lifted from their shoulders.
“I told you, Xi Nian must have been lucky, how could he get ten points every time.”
“I’m going to laugh to death, is the ninth ring so bad? Your Su Ge seems to have only hit the eighth ring, right? Xi Nian is not a professional archer, so this result is very good.”
“Xi Nian got the ninth ring this time, and the next time it may be the seventh ring. Although Su Ge’s score is not high, his performance has always been very stable, and there is still hope for winning the championship.”
Xi Nian’s water army fake fan: “……”
Damn, I just watched you talking nonsense quietly!
The two fans were rattling their swords, and the smell of smoke began to spread silently, even the atmosphere between the main idols was a bit subtle. After Xi Nian shot the ninth ring, Su Ge visibly breathed a sigh of relief. With the next arrow, he was not so nervous, but the constant loss of physical strength made it a bit difficult for him to maintain his previous results.
Whoosh!
The radio automatically reported the target: “Number 1, Su Ge, second arrow of the third category, seven points.”
Xi Nian glanced at him, then withdrew his eyes to pull back the bowstring, this time he only used five seconds from aiming to firing the arrow. After the muffled sound, it impartially hit the eighth ring. His attitude inexplicably made Su Ge feel that it was the kind that exuded unwariness.
Apparently, he was not the only one who had this illusion. In the next few matches, the two had really subtle results, and Su Ge’s fans were initially happy that Xi Nian had regressed, but as they watched, they suddenly fell silent.
When Su Ge hit the seventh ring, Xi Nian hit the eighth ring.
As Su Ge hit the eighth ring, Xi Nian hit the ninth ring.
Even with the last arrow, Su Ge rarely hit a ninth ring with super-level performance, but Xi Nian immediately shot a ten-ring. It can be said to be a coincidence once or twice, but it is impossible to be so coincidental every time. Objectively, it seemed that his shots kept pressing Su Ge.
Xi Nian…… he seemed to be controlling his scores.
The crowd looked at the man with a cold expression in the venue, and this absurd thought suddenly emerged in their hearts.
The tournament ended in a thrilling but unpredictable way, with Xi Nian finishing first in the ranking round, but beating Su Ge by an overwhelming margin, an unprecedented event since the show started.
When the referee announced the result, the media pointed their cameras at him, and the flashing lights were so intense, it could stab people to the point of being unable to open their eyes. Su Ge’s face turned a little pale, and it was difficult to maintain his demeanor.
No matter how stupid Xi Nian was, he would not show pride at such a time. He just put down his heavy curved bow, took off the protective gear in his hand, and swept his gaze across the black auditorium, just in time to catch a glimpse of Lu Xingzhe’s leaving back.—
The other party walked briskly, avoiding the crowd sideways, and quickly disappearing from his sight.
Xi Nian raised his eyebrows slightly, but later remembered that Lu Xingzhe’s legs were not born lame. It was only when Lu Xingzhe was squatting to steal a shot of a well-known male star and his mistress having a tryst in the car, that he was hit by the other party’s enraged driving.
He vaguely remembered that in his previous life, Lu Xingzhe used to lean lazily against the table while smoking, casually joking about his crippled leg: “I sold the photo for 150,000 yuan. Tsk, if I knew that I would have to exchange my leg for it, I would have quoted a high price.”
The stinking paparazzi didn’t have the slightest warmth in his eyes, only cold interest.
To some extent, he and Xi Nian were the same kind of people.
And the same kind should get together and help each other. Lu Xingzhe was a double-edged sword to Xi Nian. If he uses it well, he will cut through difficulties, but if he uses it badly, it will hurt others and himself, just like what occurred in his previous life.
Xi Nian thought to himself, what about this life?
This Lu Xingzhe’s stinky paparazzi is as difficult to get rid of as the gangrene of bones, but he has to say that the other has also brought a lot of convenience to himself. After all, not everyone can know the black materials of various stars in the entertainment industry in detail, and at this time Xi Nian still has his heart set on this double-edged sword.
He doesn’t know how but it seemed like his line of thoughts were detected as a blue ball of light suddenly floated up.
