Fake villain turned into cannon fodder - Chapter 98

“Good Chinese Poetry” was a program of educational poetry competitions for High School students broadcasted on CTV. The program took “appreciating Chinese poetry, seeking cultural genes, and enjoying the beauty of life” as its basic purpose. The people relive those ancient poems that had been studied, share the beauty of poems, feel the interest of poems, draw nutrients from the wisdom and feelings of the ancients, and nurture the soul.

The show had been successfully held for five seasons. Although the reputation and response were good, it was only in their own small circle.

Compared with other competition programs, the ratings and attention levels were relatively bleak.

But this time, it was different!

Because of the appearance of An Ran, the attention and ratings of this issue of “Good Chinese Poetry” had broken through previous records!

As for whether it could burst out of the circle …

“Guide, let’s arrange the order in secret this time, let An Ran appear first.”

Although “Chinese Good Poetry” was a high-profile “literati” program, no one disliked getting attention and ratings!

If a program with high ratings was made, not only would their salary increase, but also their program would have a lot of investors to send money.

In this day and age, no one would dismiss less money.

“Won’t it look a bit too deliberate? I think it’s good for An Ran to appear in the final.”

“You mean … let An Ran wait for the final stage of the qualifiers to compete?”

“Well, in this way, the people will be curious and the audience who pays attention to An Ran will talk about our program …”

“It seems to be the case …”

“I think last is good.”

…

An Ran, who was preparing for tomorrow’s competition, didn’t know that her order of appearance had already been decided by the program team!

She was thinking, if she was the first batch, then after she wins, she would directly take leave and not participate in the competition!

When the time comes to wait for the promotion game, she wouldn’t be around.╮ (╯ ▽ ╰) ╭

But poor An Ran didn’t know that her wish was destined to fail!

“Ranran, it’s eleven o’clock. Go to bed early, don’t you want to compete tomorrow?”

An Shengnan got the information of the hot pot restaurant. After washing and preparing to go to bed, she found that her niece was still sitting in the study room. She was writing in the book at night. She urged An Ran to rest early.

“Okay Aunt, I will go to sleep immediately, you go rest.”

An Ran put down her pen, turned her head, and said good night to her aunt.

“No, I will wait for you to sleep before going to rest.”

An Shengnan worried that An Ran would stay up late regardless of her health, so she insisted on waiting for An Ran.

That made An Ran forced to suspend her study for the day.

It was a pity that she was working on a test paper and she could draw a lottery.

An Ran took a shower, and wiped her hair and said to An Shengnan, “Aunt, I may not have time to accompany you to visit the hot pot restaurant tomorrow. You can only go alone …”

“I know, you are going to participate in the competition tomorrow. I am not going to visit the hot pot restaurants tomorrow. I will accompany you to the competition to cheer for you.”

An Ran, who had just taken a shower, could be described by an ancient poem—’Lotus emerged from the clear water naturally. ‘

She was so stunning.

Looking at her beautiful niece’s beautiful appearance, An Shengnan couldn’t even let An Ran go to the competition alone.

“Aunt, when we compete, they won’t allow people in, and there is no auditorium …”

Although “Chinese Good Poetry” was a variety show, it was a competition.

Therefore, the atmosphere of the program was more academic. Compared with other variety shows, “Chinese Good Poetry” would certainly not have an audience.

There were only 110 contestants, moderators and other staff members.

“I heard from the staff that the shortest time they will record is about seven or eight hours. If the time extends, I am afraid it will take more than ten hours.”

It was for this reason that An Ran didn’t want to waste her time on this competition. It was taking the time that could be used for her studying!

“So Aunt, you really don’t need to accompany me to the competition. If you just stand outside the studio and wait for me to finish, it won’t make sense. The other people who came with the participants would just go around while we are shooting. So, aunt, when I’m recording the program, you can travel around by yourself. Don’t worry about me, the program team will definitely take good care of us.”

Under the persuasion of An Ran, An Shengnan changed her decision to accompany An Ran ro the show.

She looked at An Ran with distressed eyes.
