Love Variety Show: The despised me exploded in popularity

```

As the electric bike appeared on screen, the viewers in the live chat's brains seemed to shrink instantaneously.

Most of them had been popping in and out of various male guests' live streams, having seen Lan Bo and then Jie Bao, and now suddenly an electric bike appeared...

It was just too abstract.

The barrage of comments resumed after a momentary pause on the empty screen, yet Xu Qingyan paid them no mind; even while stopped at traffic lights, he just took out his phone to scroll through videos.

After sending a wave of comments and receiving no reaction from the male guest on screen, the viewers were deflated, then backed out of the live stream to rope others into joining the fun.

Xu Qingyan didn't think there was much fun until more and more people flooded into his live stream.

In the observation room, there were five celebrities—three men and two women. Among them was a celebrity teacher invited by the show's organizers, a slightly overweight middle-aged man in his forties, Huang Miu.

After bursting onto the scene with a hit reality show, he became keen on crafting a chef persona, known for speaking in a mild manner.

Opinions about him varied among the netizens, but one comment was quite fair: "Any variety show Huang Teacher doesn't cook in is definitely a quality show that I'd love to watch."

The other four observers—two male and two female—were Celebrity Observers. Among the men was Chen Ming, a master debater and notorious host known in the variety show circuit.

His decision to participate in "Love Hunter," a fresh and experimental variety show, was mainly due to the great pay offered by the organizers and only requiring a short commitment of one week.

The other male observer was the recently popular actor Liu Yuzhou, who had transitioned from internet fame to being signed by an entertainment company, and played the second lead in the hit historical drama "Green Waistband."

With these young and middle-aged male stars gathered, even just the men alone commanded an immense popularity.

The inclusion of the two female celebrity observers—one a fresh-faced national sweetheart with a babyish voice, Zhao Sisi, and the other approaching her thirties, the seasoned actress known as Beauty Yu—drove the observation room's live stream's popularity through the roof.

Setting aside the romance-focused variety show, the gathering of these five celebrities was a guaranteed traffic draw.

The crew might not know how to make a variety show, but they were certainly skilled at generating views.

"Hehe, if I remember correctly, that's male guest number two, Xu Qingyan, right?" Teacher Huang chuckled, pointing at the big screen and turning to Chen Ming.

"Everyone else is driving cars, yet this young fellow is riding an electric bike."

"Maybe he didn't drive here. I remember male guest number three, Bai Jinze, didn't have a car either and had to rent one specially last night," said Chen Ming, who spoke rather plainly when not engaged in debate.

"Haha, riding an electric bike." Liu Yuzhou laughed, his looks still camera-ready even off the ancient drama set, "This guy's got style!"

"Can he even pick up a girl he likes with that?" Zhao Sisi couldn't help but giggle.

"Not necessarily, Xu Qingyan is quite handsome, and not every girl likes riding in cars." Beauty Yu countered, "Like me, I get carsick."

"That's true, maybe he's taking an unconventional approach," said Teacher Huang, smiling, "Should we have someone ask him what he thinks?"

"Director, Director!"

About fifteen seconds later, the filming team following Xu Qingyan relayed Teacher Huang's question to him.

Xu Qingyan, wearing a 3C helmet, glanced at the filming camera—he couldn't see the barrage of comments in the live stream. To view them, he would have to take out his phone and enter his own live stream.

From the start, "Love Hunter" took a daring approach by using ten teams of cameras to create ten separate live streams. It was just a form of gimmickry after all.

After all the male and female guests have checked into the Love House, only one viewing entrance will be retained, with the director switching cameras to achieve an effect similar to that of a variety show taping.

This model not only reveals the most authentic side of the guests but also tests the directing team's ability to manage the show.

"Why ride a bike?" Xu Qingyan looked at the camera with a puzzled face as if looking at an idiot, "Of course, it's because I can't afford a car that I ride a bike. Is it supposed to be because of love?"

The screen in the Celebrity Observers' room flashed as a barrage of comments crazily flooded in.

"I'm dying of laughter, is this the first time a male guest has been so bold to directly confront the mentor? Hahaha, I can't, it's killing me with laughter!"

"Is this guy here for tourism or what, so direct, it's hilarious."

"Too real, no attempt to cover it up at all, I also ride a bike because I can't afford a car."

Teacher Huang's face was somewhat unable to maintain composure, and he wanted to say something more, but the directing team had already switched the camera to Pei Muchan's perspective. So, he simply skipped that awkward topic.

"It seems Pei Muchan is planning to go out."

"Yes, she has finished her makeup," Chen Ming commented, "Dressed in a black long dress, she looks very elegant."

"Right, it's very flattering," Liu Yuzhou added.

In the frame, Pei Muchan was dressed in a black long gown as elegant and refined as an evening dress, with a shapely, full backside and a slender waist. A pair of beautiful legs were faintly visible, and she wore a pair of black high heels.

Her red lips were slightly parted, and her classical beauty's face was made up lightly, stunningly captivating.

The camera followed her from the hotel room door to the elevator, and the hazy lighting made her figure appear even more graceful and delicate, as if she was a lady from ancient times.

Pei Muchan's entire live stream was inundated with uniform comments praising her stunning beauty, and "wife, lick the screen" type of messages, to the extent that fans had to face a choice: turn on the comments and not see their goddess's face.

If they turned off the comments, then they couldn't send their screen-licking messages.

In the Observers' room, the two female Celebrity Observers stared at Pei Muchan on the screen, almost dumbfounded.

"Oh my God, Pei-jie is too beautiful!" Zhao Sisi exclaimed.

"With Pei-jie's looks, she could easily rely on her face to make a living, yet she relies on talent!" Yu Meiren also expressed her wholehearted admiration, "I have to learn how to do this makeup afterward."

"Can the camera see any male guests arriving yet?" Teacher Huang asked with an elder's authority, seemingly able to command the camera at will, "I think at least two male guests will choose to pick up Pei Muchan. After all, her looks and popularity are there for all to see."

"It seems they have arrived; look, there are two cars parked at the hotel entrance," Chen Ming added.

As the camera shifted, indeed, two luxury cars were quietly parked next to the opulent fountain pool, with two male guests having already alighted and standing by the car doors, waiting.

"It's Liu Renzhi, right? The guy who kept staring at Pei Muchan; he must be a fan," Teacher Huang chuckled, and then waited for someone to chime in.

"Yes, and the other one is the cute-looking Bai Jinze," Chen Ming echoed.

Teacher Huang immediately felt at ease, being an elder artist, it was necessary for others to join in when he spoke. Without that, the conversation lacked flavor and flow.

"Wait a second, isn't there another one, blocked from view?" Liu Yuzhou said hesitantly, "Look over there! Hey! Someone is riding a bike over here!"
