Chapter 23

Chapter 23

Tomorrow was the last day of the first episode of the show. After so many days of turmoil, the bonds between everyone had deepened significantly. Even Wang Dachui, who always thought about taking shortcuts, had become much more restrained after witnessing Yi Tiantian's words becoming reality.

Because he certainly didn't want to end up like Ju Xue!

A night breeze blew by, and Wang Dachui swallowed hard before asking, "Isn't he already fired by the company now?"

"Yes, he has been completely abandoned by Lichi Entertainment!" Shi Zhongzhong said happily, "He won't be able to survive in the industry anymore. I heard from people around me that he has already packed up and left. He took an eight o'clock train yesterday to go back to his hometown to farm!"

"And we have already sued him," Li You said, "He will pay back everything he owes us!"

Wang Dachui immediately gave the siblings a thumbs-up, but then he had a moment of doubt.

"But does he have the money to compensate?"

"The contract Lichi Entertainment signed with Ju Xue should include a substantial termination fee, estimated at around eighty million. That should be enough to cover what he owes you."

Fei Cheng pondered for a moment, analyzing carefully.

"Damn! I forgot about the compensation fee! Eighty million, what a bargain for him!"

Shi Zhongzhong frowned tightly, her grip on the cup turning white.

Even Li You, who had initially been pleased, gradually grew somber.

Although their revelations had completely cut off Ju Xue's career in the entertainment industry, he still received a fortune far greater than that of ordinary people. At least he could live comfortably for the rest of his life.

This outcome left everyone feeling unsatisfied.

Yi Tiantian quickly searched for news within the system.

"Let me see... Ah, after the court ordered him to repay the debts, Ju Xue used the remaining money to gamble again, but this time he lost everything!"

"Ju Xue, red-eyed from losing, realized he would no longer have any income, so he started borrowing money everywhere to win it back! But he couldn't find anyone willing to lend him money, so he resorted to high-interest loans!"

"However, luck did not favor him this time either, and he lost everything again! In the end, the loan sharks found him and forcibly took him to Myanmar, selling him to a local plantation!"

"Finally, Ju Xue became a slave on the plantation. When he lost his value, they sold his organs and dumped his body in a mass grave!"

Yi Tiantian exclaimed how satisfying this was!

Li You and Shi Zhongzhong were silent for a moment before sighing deeply.

But all of this was due to Ju Xue's own actions. If he chose this path, he had to face the tragic consequences!

"But I think, given his character, he'll probably squander it all soon."

After finishing her search, Yi Tiantian mentioned this tactfully.

The siblings were satisfied with the outcome and looked gratefully at Yi Tiantian, saying together, "Yes."

Beside them, Wang Dachui trembled, terrified by the grim fate Yi Tiantian described for Ju Xue.

Taking a shaky sip of water, Wang Dachui decided to turn over a new leaf right away!

.

The final day of filming began.

Today's task was simple: climb Mount Li and reach its peak.

Once the guests reached the summit and looked down at the scenic area, the first episode would be considered complete.

Everyone laughed and chatted along the way, reaching the top quickly.

Warm sunlight bathed Yi Tiantian, casting a golden silhouette. She closed her eyes, raised her head, and stretched out her arms to embrace the brilliant sunshine, taking a deep breath.

"So comfortable!"

Fei Cheng watched Yi Tiantian's relaxed form from behind, entranced, forgetting even the surrounding scenery.

The first episode of "Special Forces Action!" ended perfectly, with viewers showering it with praise.

[I never expected the mountain trip to be so thrilling! Looking back, it was quite an interesting journey. Looking forward to the next meeting!!!]

[Ahhhh, throw flowers, throw flowers! It's sad to see it end, the kids want to keep watching!! The second episode, please come soon!!]

[Although I noticed, did you see how Actor Fei Cheng looked at Yi Tiantian's back? I can imagine a fifty-thousand-word story of secret love! Director, please invite them for the next episode!]

[My original ship turned into siblings, so I'm switching to the sincere CP! So sweet, so sweet!]

The live stream's popularity topped all charts, breaking all previous records!

"Special Forces Action!" had become the most discussed variety show online, with various investors calling Director Xiao Chen to invest in the upcoming episodes.

Director Xiao Chen couldn't stop smiling; he never imagined such a huge response for his first attempt at a variety show!

Of course, he didn't forget that the key to success was bringing Yi Tiantian back for the next episode. He had already contacted her in advance, hoping she would join the next episode.

Yi Tiantian found the trip quite enjoyable and happily signed the contract for the next episode.

Li You and Shi Zhongzhong's sibling relationship was now public in the entertainment industry. They found a suitable way to interact and became the best sibling duo, receiving positive feedback for their collaborations.

The siblings were very grateful to Yi Tiantian for helping them see through the scoundrel Ju Xue. They exchanged contact information with her, offering their help whenever needed.

Wang Dachui, after the show, buried himself in studying rap music, curbing his bad habits and temper. Inspired by a sense of repentance, he even donated several times to impoverished children under the show's name.

Wang Dachui was also very thankful for the transformation Yi Tiantian brought to him. His latest album included an inspirational rap song dedicated to her.

Fei Cheng was once again hailed as the ancient remnant actor, making a huge splash with his return to the entertainment industry.

Yi Tiantian never expected that she would also become popular this time, and it was because of her and Fei Cheng's CP!

Some fans who watched the show edited all the interactions between Yi Tiantian and Fei Cheng into a video dedicated to their CP, which even made it onto the "Must-Watch" list, making everyone exclaim "kswl"!

The fans also created a super topic for the "Chengyi" CP, scrutinizing every detail of the show to find more sweet moments.

After going through all the sweet moments in the show, some observant fans noticed Yi Tiantian's "subtle reminder" to the siblings when they went mushroom picking on Mount Li.

Immediately, the fans who noticed this started discussing it online.

[Guys, do you think Yi Tiantian was trying to warn Li You and Shi Zhongzhong about Ju Xue here?]

[!!! At first, I thought Yi Tiantian was just riding the wave, but it turns out she was warning them!]

[Yi Tiantian is like a judge in the entertainment industry... all the problematic artists get exposed in front of her!]

[Yi Tiantian has some supernatural abilities! I'm following her now; there's always something interesting happening around her!]

Thus, Yi Tiantian discovered that her fan base was skyrocketing again, reaching two million followers directly! She also gained countless new fan support stations!

The trending topic "#Yi Tiantian Entertainment Judge" dominated the charts for three whole days.

Considering she was just a low-profile contestant at the start, and even now hasn't been in the industry for long, participating only in a small director's travel show, accumulating so many fans and gaining such popularity is nothing short of a miracle in the entire entertainment industry!

Although the guests left Mount Li, after the show ended, a new developer saw potential in the scenic area and decided to redevelop Mount Li.

Mount Li subsequently regained its status as a national scenic spot, attracting countless visitors each year. Some even went to the small wooden house where the guests stayed to check in, and others mimicked Yi Tiantian's pose of embracing the sun after reaching the summit, posting photos online. These photos sparked a "Sun Embrace Pose Challenge" trend on short video apps.

With half a month left before the second episode of "Special Forces," Yi Tiantian was called to the company.

.

Gugu Entertainment was pleasantly surprised by her recent outstanding performance and thus assigned her a dedicated agent, two personal assistants, and a dedicated driver.

The new agent, Brother Cheng, is an experienced broker who has managed many rising stars. He had just returned from his wife's maternity leave and took over Yi Tiantian's management.

The two assistants, one male and one female, both have experience as assistants. The female assistant is Yueyue, a bubbly little sun, while the male assistant is Yang Yang, calm and meticulous.

They complement each other perfectly.

Yi Tiantian first met her dedicated driver Xiao Wang, a young newcomer to the company with excellent driving skills and a talkative personality. He quickly drove Yi Tiantian to the company.

After getting acquainted with the agent and the two assistants, Brother Cheng introduced Yi Tiantian to her next job.

"Tiantian, the famous domestic magazine 'X' wants to invite you and the award-winning actor Fei Cheng to shoot the cover of their latest issue," Brother Cheng handed over the project materials sent by 'X.' "Your popularity is soaring right now, and 'X' sees this as a great opportunity..."

Brother Cheng's professionalism is impeccable, but as he carefully explained the details to Yi Tiantian, he noticed that she had already drifted off, holding the project materials.

"'X' magazine... isn't that the one where the shooting location was rumored to be haunted, and the editor-in-chief was exposed for keeping a ghost?"

Yi Tiantian rubbed her hands together, feeling excited about the prospect of another adventure!

Brother Cheng:?!
