“Stream?”

Everyone was stunned.

Meng Fan wanted to explain to everyone, so he spoke with some innocence in his voice, “I’m a stream host, so I’m used to streaming. If I don’t stream, I’ll get nervous and my limbs won’t work properly. I don’t know how to explain it, but I won’t achieve the result you all hope with me. I’ve been to several concerts that aren’t streamed, and I’ve screwed up a lot; it’s not good.”

Everyone listening was stunned. Is he real?

And are you a sand artist or a rapper? This flow was almost superficial!

“Mr. He, Hua Hua, Kou Kou…”

At this moment, Bai Zhi approached them. She hadn’t performed yet but came by to congratulate Meng Fan. She had watched his performance just now onstream and was amazed.

Hearing Meng Fan used the excuse of being nervous about any non-streamable event on these celebrities… and… and even freestyled a rap verse, she was afraid they would misunderstand him. She stood up and began. “Fan really is a streamer, and he really does get nervous on non-streamable platforms. Hence, he even rejected director David’s offer to perform at the Las Vegas show during the rehearsal today.”

“What?”

Everyone was stunned once again. They had watched the visual effects through the stream and knew Bai Zhi wasn’t joking around saying David was interested in hiring him. If he even rejected the Las Vegas show, they had no words to say. This was… Are all artists this unique?

Hua Hua and Kou Kou were both singers and had wanted to invite Meng Fan to appear as a guest during their concerts, but they were streamed. As for other stream opportunities, those would always exist. But god knows when. Plus, it won’t be under their control when the time came.

Hence, they all walked away, slightly disappointed.

But Mr.He thought for a moment and smiled at Meng Fan. “If it’s a stream, do you agree?” he then added, “Of course, only if you have time.”

Meng Fan nodded.

“Then let’s exchange contact information so it’s easier to communicate.”

Mr. He and Meng Fan exchanged phone numbers and left, fulfilled.

“Mr. He, wait a minute.”

Meng Fan called to Mr. He and walked over. He chuckled. “Uhm, can we take a photo together? I’m your fan, and I grew up watching your show.”

Mr. He has heard this from the mouths of thirty and forty-year-olds, nonetheless a 20 or so college student like Meng Fan. Happily, he approached Meng Fan and looked at the camera. He couldn’t help but exclaim, “You’re really big aren’t you?!”

Meng Fan happily received the selfie. Even if he had a celebrity at home, it didn’t mean Meng Fan wasn’t ecstatic when he met other famous figures. Of course, there were many opportunities to meet celebrities backstage, and Meng Fan wasn’t willing to pursue all of them for a photo.

—The three national channels that hosted this event did not include Mango TV. Mr. He wasn’t just a host but had appeared as a high profile figure on behalf of Ali Music.

Bai Zhi exchanged a few words with Meng Fan and went off to prepare for her performance. Meng Fan started to head towards his resting room but ran into another figure he wanted a photo with.

Only, he was a bit nervous.

“Huh? Hello.”

Meng Fan’s presence felt overwhelming at this moment, to the point that this superstar recognized him. Seeing Meng Fan gaze at him with shining eyes, he took the initiative and walked over. Smiling, he said, “You’re… Meng Fan right? Aiyo, not bad. Your performance was really slick just now.”

“Mr. Chou, can I get a photo with you?”

“Of course.”

After taking a photo, Jay Chou handed a cup of milk tea to Meng Fan. It was warm and very heartwarming.

It also confirmed that Jay Chou loved to drink milk tea.

Meng Fan returned to his rest room to remove his makeup and change. He grabbed his milk tea and slipped into the audience to leech some more shots. Su Qing Cen approached him and gave him a big hug.

“Today’s performance was incredible, thank you!”

After being interviewed, she was eager to watch the video as she left the stage. When the performance ended, Su Qing Cen could confirm that today had been a success. She also enjoyed it very much herself. But after watching the video, she felt genuinely moved.

It was her most satisfactory performance since she debuted, and by far, the most enjoyable.

Meng Fan was slightly stunned to be held so tightly by Su Qing Cen. She hadn’t changed out of her fairy costume yet, which was very… While holding him tightly… She was so soft, it was heartwarming!

“Uhm, I should be the one thanking you.”

Meng Fan didn’t know what to say and only regained his composure after she let go.

He didn’t have dirty thoughts, but who could act normal when being hugged by their idol?!

“Huh? Is this a milk tea for me? Thanks! I was thirsty.”

Su Qing Cen saw the milk tea in Meng Fan’s hands and happily took it over. Snap. she opened the can and began to sip, eyes forming into half-moon shapes. It looked really delicious. She then waved her hand, gesturing she’ll come back after she removed her makeup and costume.

That… Meng Fan was very reluctant to give it to her! Okay. He also wanted to taste the milk tea that’s been held by Jay Chou’s warm hands!

The lesson here was you have to use or eat or drink any good thing that you get immediately, right?!

Meng Fan asked the employee for a direction and headed towards the venue. Shortly after, he could hear ecstatic screams.

There must be staff around here, but they were only responsible for barricading the audience from accessing, but not the celebrities from leaving. Seeing Meng Fan, they immediately recognized that he was the sand artist from the visually stunning performance—After all, his presence was way too strong, and he was easy to remember—without a word, while one of the employees even took Meng Fan to a viewing area with a good view.

Or maybe he was worried that the ruckus would distract the other audience.

This viewing area was great. Based on regular gala conventions, this was the “hired audience” area.

Why are there “hired audience” members? Because it looked good when the camera swept over them!

The camera can’t just casually scan anyone. Aside from some special cases that make the cut, the rest were all sweeping shots of these “hired audience”. They have to be attractive, and lively looking. Otherwise, it was awkward to film a bunch of people with absent-minded stares. Although there weren’t many of these people at this kind of event, they still prepared just in case.

This spot was almost too perfect for Meng Fan, who’d been hoping for such a spot.

After a while, Bai Zhi and the male actor came on stage and put on a good performance. Plus they were popular. Especially for the male actor, who was lucky he got by without any incidents.

When all the performances ended, it was 10:00 pm. A group of hosts and celebrities appeared on stage.

There was a lucky draw that was part of the event, mostly Taobao red pockets or gift packages. There were many different kinds, and the winner of each one was selected by a celebrity guest.

Among this group were two celebrities and two athletes in addition to two hosts. Jay Chou was one of them. He was there representing a popular variety show on behalf of Blue Whale TV.
