Chapter 389: Beijing University School Tyrant

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Qin Hanqiu didn’t understand what Qin Xiuchen had said to the manager.

But he understood what he meant by not using the script.

While sitting on the sofa, he put down the melon seed shell in his hand and looked honestly at Butler Qin. “He said that the show was real, and the director team didn’t arrange anything for Ran Ran.”

No arrangement?

No script?

So Qin Ran had come up with the cumbersome codes for the escape route in the first episode of the program?

Especially the section of the violin song, how did she play such a difficult composition without even using a score?

How meticulous were her thoughts? How broad was her knowledge?

Butler Qin only knew that she was from Beijing University Physics Department, and only realized at this point just how far she was from his understanding.

He stared at Qin Hanqiu and Qin Ling in a daze and realized that the two of them were very calm. They weren’t in the slightest bit surprised at Qin Xiuchen’s words and seemed to be accustomed to them.

Butler Qin sat on the sofa in a daze, his head buzzing. After realizing that Qin Ran was like this, he couldn’t recover for a long time.

Qin Xiuchen drove the car to the studio.

He pushed the door open.

The studio people had just arrived, and the whole studio was still warming up from the heater. As soon as he opened the door, a gush of cold wind blew in.

“Netizens have already started spamming.” The manager massaged his eyebrows. “But we have it under control.”

Qin Xiuchen’s team couldn’t be understated for his accomplishments today. His public relations were among the best in the entire entertainment circle.

The current situation was under the control of public relations.

He was afraid someone would step on it at this juncture.

Qin Xiuchen had almost no scandal in the circle, and many people were jealous of his standing on top of the pyramid in the film and television industry.

Things would blow up if someone wanted to make use of this situation.

Qin Ran was a bug in the program and was too inconsistent with ordinary people’s perception, so the majority of people actually believed it was fake. It wasn’t easy to find evidence for this kind of thing as well.

What could they do?

Bring those who didn’t believe in Qin Ran to let them personally experience it?

The temperature in the studio gradually rose.

Public relations worked overtime like crazy, writing manuscripts, deleting comments, and controlling them.

Qin Xiuchen directly called the director as he took another cigarette from his pocket.

“Film Emperor Qin, are you looking for me regarding the show? I didn’t expect it to be like this.” The director pressed his temple. “At that time, the program review was decided by President Jiang himself…”

“President Jiang?” Qin Xiuchen lit the cigarette and frowned upon hearing this.

What was going on with Jiang Dongye?

Was he taking revenge on Qin Ran?

This made no sense.

“Your side is controlling the public opinion on Weibo. I just watched the major news. You’ve dealt with it promptly.” The director had also checked Weibo and found that several hot searches were deleted, and the topic’s popularity was dropping. “Perhaps it’ll be fine overnight. Don’t think too much about it. When the next episode is broadcast, these haters will naturally disappear.”

Yang Fei and Yan Xi’s popularity couldn’t be covered in the next episode.

Especially since Qin Ran had logged into her game account to play the game, which wasn’t something the production crew could write a script for.

After bearing it for a week, the effect of the reversal would be apparent.

The director had also anticipated the current situation and had expected the second episode to completely cover the first episode. Thus, when Jiang Dongye had agreed to broadcast this episode, he hadn’t thought much about it and had finalized this version.

This version was the most authentic, and the director hadn’t touched it much.

Qin Xiuchen pressed his forehead and hung up.

Biting his cigarette, the smoke rose as he played with his phone. Finally, he called Qin Ran, who picked up after a few minutes.

“Ran Ran.” He put the phone to his ear, his voice as usual as the smoke enveloped his eyebrows. “Are you sleeping?”

“Not yet, I’m finishing a call with my roommate.” In Ting Lan, Qin Ran held the phone in one hand and opened the door with the other, looking lazy.

She was talking about Nan Huiyao.

Nan Huiyao was Qin Xiuchen’s fanatical wife fan and naturally followed his first variety show appearance. After watching the show in the dormitory, she called Qin Ran and exploded with questions for nearly 10 minutes.

As soon as she hung up, Qin Xiuchen called.

Qin Ran’s voice was always flat and straightforward, without any emotional fluctuations.

Pinching the cigarette with his fingers, Qin Xiuchen was uncertain if she knew about the online events. After indirectly asking a few questions, he finally determined that she wasn’t affected before feeling reassured.

He put out the cigarette and looked at the people still working overtime in the studio. “Thank you, everyone. I’ll treat you all to dinner when this matter is over.”

In the many years since the establishment of his studio, Qin Xiuchen had always treated his people well, so most of them were his fans.

Coupled with the fact that Qin Ran had given the manager the computer previously, the studio team was very energetic.

They stared at their computers all night and only finished dealing with the matter at 3 am.

Qin Xiuchen was finally relieved.

At the same time.

In the Qin family’s old house.

Where the Fourth Master stayed.

His subordinates were reporting Qin Xiuchen’s affairs to him.

These few days, Butler Qin’s side had kept moving. Even after searching for a long time, the Fourth Master still couldn’t find out who was the one who helped Butler Qin decode the program, so he had let someone keep an eye on him.

Although the Qin family was already under his control, he still felt vaguely uneasy, because Butler Qin had retrieved the only remaining direct bloodline.

He knew that the Qin family wouldn’t last for so many years if they relied on Butler Qin.

The only reason why Butler Qin had persisted on and found a decoder to bite a piece of meat from him was because of Qin Xiuchen’s existence.

It wasn’t a day or two since he regarded Qin Xiuchen as a thorn in his eyes.

However, Qin Xiuchen had never left any usable information against him. Not only that, but he was still successful in the entertainment industry and had met many partners.

Closing the file in his hand, the Fourth Master’s eyes were cold. “Qin Ran is the Old Master’s granddaughter?”

“Yes,” the subordinate replied.

The Fourth Master placed his hands on the table and sneered. “She was hidden so well.”

If it hadn’t been exposed on the Internet today, even he wouldn’t have found her.

Thinking of something, the subordinate glanced at him hesitantly.

“Go on.” The Fourth Master looked up.

“When our men were following Qin Hanqiu, we found another woman.” The subordinate lowered his head, looking puzzled. “It seems like Qin Hanqiu has another daughter.”

The Fourth Master stood up, feeling puzzled. “Look it up for me, I want to know what Qin Xiuchen has hidden from me.”

Bai Tiantian’s fan group.

Bai Tiantian had been popular previously.

The Jiang Corporation terminated the contract with her after the variety show.

No secret stayed in the entertainment industry, and the other companies didn’t dare to sign a contract with her after the contract termination.

Bai Tiantian moved out of the Jiang Corporation’s dormitory after returning from City C. Fortunately, she had garnered several loyal fans previously.

In the first episode of “24-hours Idol,” Bai Tiantian was the funniest from beginning to end.

The netizens laughed at her for solving the question even without recognizing that the question was wrong.

1

“Wish You A Cool Breeze” was the President of Bai Tiantian’s fan support club. After watching this episode, she was also completely shaken and wanted to abandon Bai Tiantian, but in the end, she also suspected if Qin Ran had been given a script by the production crew, much like the other netizens.

Especially since the hot search was withdrawn one by one, and at 3 o’clock, not one was left.

“Wish You A Cool Breeze”‘s suspicion grew from 30% to 70%.

She sent a message to Bai Tiantian—

“Did the production crew force you to help her set up her character?”

1

Bai Tiantian followed her fan support on her Weibo account.

She naturally saw her message and clicked to read the content.

The program broadcast had much impact on Bai Tiantian. She could answer the question without knowing it was wrong, and the production crew had even given it to her. It was obvious that she was the one who had gotten the character set-up.

She pursed her lips. She didn’t expect the netizens to be focused on Qin Ran without easing up. Because her performance was too nature-defying, every netizen’s attention was focused on her.

Seeing this message, Bai Tiantian’s eyes lit up, and she sent a reply to her—

“Yes.”

This single word sounded so aggrieved to “Wish You A Cool Breeze.”

Anger bubbled in her.

She watched the program’s screen again.

She typed a message overnight: “Regarding this idol variety show, I just have three questions: 1. For the first Physics question, she didn’t even look at it from beginning to end, which was also pointed out by Jing Wen’s cousin in the show. So, how did she know that there was no correct answer and the question was wrong?

2. She said she’s from Beijing University’s Physics Department. Do these people study the Babylonian literature? Can they tell the week system at a glance? (Video screenshot)

3. The most ridiculous thing is the scene with the violins. Is there anyone who can print the music score in their minds after hearing these two songs? Without using any paper, she can even conjure the scores out of thin air, and can even find the two overlapping points? I’m afraid she must be a musical genius. (Video screenshot)

All in all, I think it’s seriously disgusting how they pulled another actress off the court just to promote someone. And let’s not talk about how she’s a school tyrant from Beijing University. The production crew shouldn’t highlight that they’re scared of Beijing University’s school tyrants now and bring haters to them. The people I know from Beijing University aren’t like this. (Smile)”
