Muyao TV had a professional marketing department with rich experience in media operation. They had even launched an interactive lottery.

The four public figures that had been announced consisted of the most popular, desirable and trending idols, who were also subjects of the hottest gossip in the circle. Minutes after it was announced, the comment section had blown up.

—[Ahhhhhh I’m hoarse from screaming! Jiang Chen, Jiang Chen. Jiang Chen! Hubby hubby hubby!]

—[Beautiful goddess, sister Qin, everyone! Her featured work includes “Summer Stars” and “Heart”. She is beautiful and sweet, do not miss out! ]

—[T________T Fu Jiayan! His Royal Highness, the Prince, is still on my mind. Didi must take care of himself on the variety show!]

—[QQQQQQ The star of the gymnast world, Yu Miaomiao, and national little sister Yu Miaomiao! Adorable lively girl Yu Miaomiao! Everyone please lock in on 4/30 for “Heartbeat”! ]

The fanbases of all four idols had been uniformly dispatched. They took over comment sections, forums, tags, reposting, and propagating, while Muyao TV fanned the flames. Soon, the search term was trending.

At the Xiang family.

“Phew…” Ah Nan wiped the sweat on his forehead and continued to clean the pigpen.

Ever since he tasted Xiang Yi’s egg fried rice, Ah Nan had been frequently visiting the Xiang family. Every day, he would come for the purpose of discussing work; but in reality he was willing to do anything for a bite of food.

He had initially refused Xiang Yi’s request for him to clean the pigpen, but she had told him that pork chops taste extra delicious when it was fresh…

“Hehehe…” Ah Nan sweetly grinned at the round and plump piglets in the pen.

After solving the hygiene issue of the piglets, Ah Nan returned to his phone and logged onto Weibo. Immediately, he was drowned in the overwhelming propaganda for “Heartbeat”.

“F*ck… Why are they so shameless?”

Not far away, Xiang Yi was tending to a newly planted row of strawberry seedlings, with its lush green leaves and white spots poking out. She was focused on rearranging the leaves, as if she didn’t have a care in the world. It seems like no matter what happened, she would still maintain her calm composure.

Hearing Ah Nan cursing, she looked up, puzzled. “What’s wrong?”

Ah Nan described the operations of Muyao TV in a few words, his colorful hair sticking up on its ends from his anger. “Fine, if they want to do a livestream variety, go ahead. But they’re even going to release it the day before ours! Are they deliberately trying to bring us down?!”

Moreover, the audience wouldn’t think about it so much, but they will already have a preconceived impression of this variety format. When the time comes, they might even believe that “Two Under One Roof” was the one trying to start trouble.

Xiang Yi nodded, then asked, “Are you hungry? Want me to make you something?”

“I am a little hungry…” Ah Nan subconsciously blurted out. After he snapped back into reality, he began stomping his feet in urgency. “My dear, this is not the time, how can you still think about food!”

Xiang Yi had an innocent expression. “But mealtime has always been important.” She smiled. “Do you want ribs? It’ll taste delicious in soup.”

Ah Nan swallowed and couldn’t resist agreeing. His phone then began to vibrate. He looked down then began to shudder. “My dear, we’re done for! We’re really done for this time!”

On Weibo, some marketing account had broken the news that the film location for “Two Under One Roof” had been exposed in advance. A large number of Shi Sui fans had already gathered nearby, which has begun to affect regular filming.

In other words, the variety show wouldn’t be able to proceed as planned.

With this, “Two Under One Roof” might not even be able to air before “Heartbeat” does—it might not be able to even air on time.

Just as the hair on Li Jianyu’s head was anxiously getting sparse, Xiang Yi’s manager Ah Nan called him on video.

He picked up.

—Immediately, the first sound that entered Li Jianyu’s ears was a loud and clear sound of a slurp splash. and finally swallowing.

Then a hearty, satisfied burp.

Li Jianyu: “….IS IT HUMAN TO BE STREAMING A MUKBANG FOR A DIRECTOR WHO’S ABOUT TO GO BALD?!”
