Chapter 177 Chapter 161 "King of Masked Singer" will be forever recorded as the most exciting page in the history of domestic variety shows.

The people around couldn't help laughing when watching this scene.

On the show, Cheng Cheng tortured Jiang Nan a lot, asked her to be an assistant in magic, acted to tease her, and produced a lot of show effects. Now Cheng Cheng was attacked by Jiang Nan at zero frame, and he deserved it.

If you commit a crime while wearing a mask, you will have to pay for it when you take off the mask.

However, everyone around them was surprised. Could their relationship be so good?

Cheng Cheng raised his hands in surrender:
"Let me go, I'll treat you to a meal."

Jiang Nan glanced at him: "Is it just a simple meal?"

Cheng Cheng: "Eat two meals."

Jiang Nan: "You cook for me yourself!"

Cheng Cheng: “Deal.”

Jiang Nan was pleased: "That's pretty good~"

Cheng Cheng: "Should we go eat now? I'm hungry."

Jiang Nan shook his hair and said, "Let's go. I'm hungry too."

Immediately, Cheng Cheng was about to leave everyone behind and go have dinner with Jiang Nan. Everyone else was watching eagerly, but Cheng Cheng had no intention of inviting them at all. Everyone around him sweatdropped. Director Cheng was indeed Director Cheng. At this point, he no longer needed to care about any social etiquette.

But at this time, Huo Xiwen, the director of Fuhai TV Station, rushed out:

"Director Cheng, Director Cheng, don't be in such a hurry to leave."

He held Cheng Cheng's hand and said, "Director Cheng, I have something to talk to you about."

Cheng Cheng said directly:

"Continue to do the second season. Also, I have a new variety show project. If Fu Hai TV wants to do it, I'll give it to you guys as well."

Huo Xiwen was surprised. He had come to Cheng Cheng to discuss this!
I want the second season of "King of Masked Singer" to continue on Fu Hai TV!
After all, the first season was so successful, there must be a lot of TV stations eyeing it. He was afraid that after tonight, the conditions offered by other TV stations would tempt Cheng Cheng.

Unexpectedly, Cheng Cheng saw through his thoughts at a glance, and not only agreed to continue with the second season for them, but also planned a new variety show! It was a pleasant surprise!

Others are excited too!
New variety show project? Can they participate?
Huo Xiwen was so excited that he didn't know what to say:
"Thank you, Director Cheng. Thank you so much. Um..."

Cheng Cheng didn't give him a chance to speak: "We'll also broadcast 'Wulin Wai Zhuan' for you."

"?"

A question mark appeared above Huo Xiwen's head: I haven't spoken yet...

At this moment, he was a little embarrassed by Cheng Cheng's generosity.

Cheng Cheng: "So can I go eat now?"

"Okay, okay!" Huo Xiwen nodded repeatedly.

He thought: Is this how a genius thinks? He gave me so much just to get rid of me?

In fact, he doesn't understand Cheng Cheng.

Cheng Cheng doesn't care about money at all. What he cares about is a stable partner. As long as this partner doesn't cause any trouble and doesn't bother him, he will continue to cooperate with him. Money doesn't matter as long as it meets the market price.

And Fu Hai TV Station was lucky enough to pass Cheng Cheng's test.

"It's good enough that I can go." Cheng Cheng turned around and was about to leave.

But at this moment, he suddenly remembered something, stopped, took out his mobile phone, opened the WeChat QR code business card, and handed it to Xu Lin:

"Add a friend."

Xu Lin: “Hmm?”

Cheng Cheng: "I'll write a song for you when I have time."

The songs produced by the system may not be suitable for him to sing, so it is better to let others sing them. He still admires Xu Lin very much.

Others looked at Xu Lin with envy. Xu Lin quickly took out her phone, added Cheng Cheng's WeChat, and said:
"Thank you."

She is a calm person. Although she is very grateful in her heart, she cannot express it in any meaningful way.

Cheng Cheng then added the H key - the WeChat of Yu Chun, Xi Xiang, Yin Shu, Han Shi and others, and then, under the expectant gaze of others, he put away his phone and left with Jiang Nan.

Others who didn’t add Cheng Cheng on WeChat looked at Cheng Cheng’s back with a look of pity and envy on their faces.

When will they be able to be as free and easy as this guy, who can ignore anyone he wants?

But in fact, it is really difficult to be like Cheng Cheng.

Huo Xiwen said with a smile:

"Okay, Director Cheng is gone, but that doesn't stop us from having fun. I'll treat everyone to a big dinner and a celebration banquet!"

"it is good!"

Everyone cheered, but soon Xi Xiang took the initiative to apologize to him:

"Huo Tai, I'm sorry, my wife is here today too. She has booked a flight back tonight, so she can't have dinner."

Then Yu Chun said: "Director Huo, I have to catch up on tomorrow's announcement."

Han Shi: "Huo Tai, it's too late. I won't join in the fun tonight."

Huo Xiwen's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and he thought, if Director Cheng was here, you would probably all stay, right?
Is my appeal so bad compared to that of a successful director?!
Okay~
Huo Xiwen recognized the reality. It was indeed that bad, but when Director Cheng gave me the new variety show project, gave me "Wulin Waijia", and then filmed the second season of "Masked Singer", Fu Hai TV might not be able to become the number one channel under CCTV!
-

After getting in the car, Cheng Cheng was a little curious:

"Did you drive here by yourself? Your agent and assistant are not here?"

Jiang Nan said: "I asked them to leave early."

Cheng Cheng was alert: "Why?"

Jiang Nan said: "It's inconvenient to take them with us when we go to eat."

Cheng Cheng nodded slightly: "You are right, but I don't have my driver's license with me."

Jiang Nan took out her driver's license from her bag and showed it to Cheng Cheng: "I brought it with me. I'll drive for you."

"That's great." Cheng Cheng sat in the passenger seat with peace of mind.

Jiang Nan looked at him: "Aren't you going to change your clothes?"

Cheng Cheng thought about it and realized that it was indeed too eye-catching to go out in this outfit, so he took off his clothes, revealing his uneven hair, and the white short-sleeved shirt and black pants underneath.

"What's wrong with your hair? It's so ugly! It looks like it was bitten by a dog." Jiang Nan said.

Cheng Cheng said: "It's needed for filming."

There are scenes about hair cutting in "Those Years" and "Zhou Chu Eliminates Three Evils". During this period, Cheng Cheng's hair suffered a lot.

Jiang Nan reached up and said with a smile:
"Don't tell me, this is quite manly, very rough."

"By the way," she asked, "which movie are you filming now?"

Cheng Cheng: “Part 2.”

Jiang Nan leaned in close, observing Cheng Cheng's expression, and asked, "Did you enjoy the kiss?"

Cheng Cheng: “?”

Jiang Nan said dissatisfiedly, "Don't pretend. The Chinese Paladin even aired the kissing scene between you and Wen Lian. The internet went viral! Tell me the truth, did you have any kissing scenes in these two movies? Don't try to lie to me! I will go and watch it."

Cheng Cheng answered truthfully: "It is in Those Years, but not in Zhou Chu Eliminates Three Evils."

Jiang Nan continued to stare at him, their noses almost touching each other: "With whom?"

Cheng Cheng: "With Yan Gou'er."

Jiang Nan: "Kiss?"

Cheng Cheng: "Kiss."

Jiang Nan suddenly got angry.

It’s more painful for my best friend to kiss someone else than to kill her!

Kissing is inevitable to have feelings for each other. It's not appropriate for a man and a woman to be so close to each other. If it's a wet kiss, you put your thing in my mouth, I put my thing in your mouth, and we kiss for a few minutes, then...
She thought again:

What if my good brother is with someone else?
Then wouldn't her fantasy of a happy old age with Cheng Cheng be ruined? !
Cheng Cheng: “Are you angry?”

"Hmph!" Jiang Nan pouted so hard that a bottle of oil could be hung on it. She said sourly, "You are the director anyway, you can kiss whoever you want. You wrote the script yourself, and no one can stop you if you kiss ten actresses in one play."

"Really not, it's all due to the plot."

Cheng Cheng could swear that the script he got from the system had basically not been changed, and he would not add some intimate scenes to satisfy his own selfish desires.

Jiang Nan: "Huh, how would I know? How would I know what the director of Chengda University thinks?"

She deliberately stretched out the word "big" to make it sound sarcastic.

Cheng Cheng looked at her who was so close to him, and suddenly pulled her plump body into his body, then kissed her hard, and kissed her for about ten seconds before letting her go.

At this moment, Jiang Nan was a little confused, his cheeks were flushed, and his head was steaming. He was at a loss:
"What are you doing?"

Cheng Cheng wiped his mouth with the back of his hand and asked, "What is our relationship?"

Jiang Nan asked tentatively: "Brother?"

"Yes." Cheng Cheng wiped the corners of his mouth and asked, "What happened after the kiss?"

Jiang Nan was confused: "What is it?"

Cheng Cheng: "Brother!"

Jiang Nan was horrified: "Can it be calculated this way?"

Cheng Cheng: "Of course you can do that. Do you want to do it again?"

Jiang Nan glanced at him, then suddenly turned over, sat on him, lowered her head and kissed him fiercely. She also groped for Cheng Cheng's hand and let Cheng Cheng put his hand on her waist.

After an intense kiss of eleven minutes and eight seconds, Jiang Nan panted, lying in the crook of Cheng Cheng's neck, and once again uttered the world-famous saying:

"Brother, you smell so good."

Cheng Cheng said: "Yes, I know."

This is the effect of the body odor of [Gentleman] drawn by the system.

Jiang Nan looked at him, his eyes moving: "Besides being brothers, is there any other explanation?"

Cheng Cheng blinked:
"What else do you want to say?"

-

The next day, Cheng Cheng and Jiang Nan woke up in the same bed.

Jiang Nan rested his head on Cheng Cheng's shoulder, still asleep, breathing softly and slowly, very quietly and cutely.

Cheng Cheng put his arm around her waist, looked down at her pretty eyes and fair skin, and felt a sense of beauty. Although he felt something heavy on his arm, it was just a happy worry.

This was the first time that Cheng Cheng had slept with a girl in his two lifetimes.

"Jiang Jiang, wake up."

Cheng Cheng pushed her.

"I'm so sleepy, I want to sleep more." Jiang Nan moaned, acting like a spoiled child. Cheng Cheng: "Get up early, I have to go back to Taiwan to film today."

Jiang Nan said "Oh" without opening his eyes, and it was unclear whether he heard it or not.

Cheng Cheng pulled his arm out, put on his slippers, and went to the bathroom to wash up.

About ten minutes later, Cheng Cheng came back from washing up and Jiang Nan was already awake. She sat down on the bed with her suspenders' shoulder straps slipping down, revealing her fair shoulders. The feminine features on her chest were extremely eye-catching.

She asked sleepily, "You didn't do anything to me last night, did you?"

Cheng Cheng started to argue with her:
"What do you want me to do to you?"

Jiang Nan: "How should I know? I'm a girl."

Cheng Cheng: "Do you remember now that you are a girl? Don't you know what I did to you? You are still wearing your clothes."

Jiang Nan: "I forgot, I drank last night."

Cheng Cheng: "You're not drunk."

Cheng Cheng wanted to do something last night, but in the end he didn't do anything harmful and just slept with her in his arms all night. After all, he wasn't a sex-crazed guy and didn't have to do that.

Jiang Nan also knew that Cheng Cheng didn't actually do anything to her, he was just teasing him just now.

“When are you leaving?” she asked.

Cheng Cheng: "The flight is at 12 noon."

Jiang Nan: "I'll drive you."

At this time, Jiang Wang suddenly called:

"Nannan, where are you now? I called you so many times last night, why didn't you answer? Why did you send your agent and assistant away? Are you with Cheng Cheng now?"

Jiang Wang asked questions like a machine gun, which made Jiang Nan frown and scolded: "Dad, please keep your voice down, don't disturb Chengzi."

"You?" Jiang Wang was furious when he heard this. I care about my baby daughter so much, but she actually blames me for disturbing Orange?

I.
He felt deeply hurt and said, "You are actually with Cheng Cheng? Nan Nan, turn on the speakerphone! Cheng Cheng! Cheng Cheng! Cheng Cheng!"

Jiang Wang started shouting.

Cheng Cheng looked at Jiang Nan speechlessly: No, are you harming me?

Jiang Nan stuck out his tongue at him.

Jiang Wang was still shouting on the phone: "Cheng Cheng, what did you do to my daughter?"

Cheng Cheng said: "Uncle Jiang, I didn't do anything."

Jiang Wang: "I don't believe it! My daughter is so beautiful, and you didn't do anything?"

Jiang Nan: "Okay, Cheng Cheng and I are brothers, buddies, don't worry about it, Dad. Be good, I'll introduce you to a few more aunts when we go home next month. I won't talk anymore, I should get up and wash up."

After saying that, Jiang Nan hung up the phone.

Cheng Cheng looked at her and said, "Do you know how much of a blow your words 'I need to get up and wash up' caused to your old father?"

Jiang Nan: "My dad is like this. He cares too much about me. His life revolves around me. This can't go on. I have to stimulate him."

Cheng Cheng observed a moment of silence for Jiang Wang.

In addition to Jiang Nan, Cheng Cheng also had a lot of messages on his phone. As soon as he opened his phone, the news exploded.

There are missed calls, text messages, and WeChat messages.

Wen Lian: "Director Cheng, you are so strong! I didn't expect you to be such a good singer. Our fellow artists are all shocked. From today on, you are my idol, hehe! The peak welcomes false supporters, and the dusk witnesses true believers!"

Beret: "Director Cheng, you always leave me dumbfounded! Please accept my knee, I am now completely convinced!"

Wang Hong: "Director Cheng is awesome! Last night's live broadcast was so great. When I saw that Li Huowang was Director Cheng, Xiao Gou'er and I both screamed in surprise. It's not an exaggeration at all!"

Yan Gou'er: "Director Cheng, don't believe what Wang Hong said. I actually guessed it a long time ago. Yes, really! I suddenly remembered! After filming "The Legend of Sword and Fairy", you didn't let me go with you to edit it. Is it because you wanted to record the show?"

Li Yang: "Congratulations to Director Cheng for another perfect ending to his show! Director Cheng is awesome!!!"

Tang Biao: "Brother Frog, you are so awesome! I never thought that Li Huowang was you! Do you know that when you took off your mask, the group of black fans went crazy! Hahahaha! The ichengs were beaten by us and had no chance to fight back! It's not an exaggeration to say that you are the most popular star in the country now! Are you in Fu Hai now? Let's have lunch at noon. I'm so excited now that I have to talk to you in person!"

Li Zhuo: "Mr. Cheng, many artists have called to congratulate us today. I've written down their names and will send them to you later. There are also many media and reporters who want to interview you. There are also several TV stations and program teams who want to invite you to be a flying guest. There are also some brands who want to invite you to be their spokesperson. I will send them to you later. In addition, Mr. Cheng, I told the artists and employees that I knew about you being Li Huowang in advance, so don't let it slip."

Cheng Cheng picked out the important ones and replied one by one.

Reply to Wen Lian: "I agree to join the army!"

Reply to Yan Gou'er: "You guessed right."

Reply to Tang Biao: "Okay, send me a location."

Reply to Li Zhuo: "Okay, I won't let anything slip. Send me the list."

At the same time, the internet also reported on last night’s “King of Masked Singer” live broadcast night in great detail.

-

"Hot search! Li Huowang's "Internationale" amazed the audience, and the whole audience sang together: Internationalism must be realized!"

"After 11 episodes, 80 songs, and 42 days of companionship, The Masked Singer finally reached its final chapter last night.

Before it was aired, although the public did not have high hopes for this show in the competition with "La La Land" and "Infinite Voice", this show finally broke the ratings curse of TV variety shows for many years.

No one is optimistic about you, but you are the most competitive.

With the broadcast of the live broadcast of the "Masked Singer" final night yesterday, the final seven masked singers were unveiled one after another.

They are 'My H key doesn't work' - Yu Chun, 'Lemonade is the water of life' - Yin Shu, 'Today I see the man in the cocoon' - Xu Lin, and 'Li Huowang who loves flying kites' - Cheng Cheng.

Among the six singers who unveiled their faces, the most unexpected one was undoubtedly Cheng Cheng, especially when he sang the "Internationale" on the final stage, a song of liberation from the perspective of all mankind. You know, although our Guo Jia has been at peace for a long time, the international situation is not peaceful.
However, Cheng Cheng's brilliance did not completely overshadow the other singers. Apart from Xi Xiang who had already been exposed, Yu Chun, Yin Shu and Xu Lin were not guessed by the audience."

"The King of Masked Singer" has come to an end, and the post-King of Masked Singer era may have just begun"

"The Masked Singer has come to an end. This show, which once caused heated discussions due to its dominance on Weibo, finally came to an end yesterday with a live broadcast. The number of people who participated in the vote reached 26 million, creating a new history of domestic entertainment variety shows and announcing the end of a phenomenal show.

Eventually the seven masks were unveiled, but that wasn’t all.

The rediscovery of the singer is still on the way.

The transformation of abandoning all prejudices and focusing on music itself is also on the way.

The changes in the Tianxia music scene brought about by Xu Lin, Yin Shu, and Li Huowang may have just begun."

-

"Starting from the million-dollar copywriting, analyzing why "The Masked Singer" opened with such a high opening and went on a rampage?"

“In the era of variety show boom, opportunities always coexist with hidden worries.

We cannot determine now why Cheng Cheng chose to do such a program a month ago.

What we see is that there were many music variety shows at that time, including music variety show + love, music variety show + travel, music variety show + friendship, music variety show + boy group, music variety show + girl group, etc. At the same time, traditional music variety shows completely lost their competitiveness.

In this situation, finding a new way and overtaking others became the only options, and thus, the unconventional "King of Masked Singer" was born.

Looking back now, the popularity of "King of Masked Singer" has undoubtedly made people fully accept the masked model, but a month ago, when the program plan came out, the feedback received was mostly questioning:

The mask-wearing competition is purely a superficial effort. You can tell which star it is at a glance. There is no need to wear a mask. The idea is good but the execution is difficult.
The doubts in the market, coupled with the fact that this program was facing two ace programs from Xiangjiang TV and Wushan TV at the same time, made the early stages of the program even more difficult.

It is precisely in such an adverse environment that the overall tone of masking is increasingly inclined towards "breaking shackles and going against the trend".

We see musicians breaking free from their shackles one after another, including Huang Zheng, who can only work as a lyricist and composer behind the scenes because of his ugliness, Mei Lang, who was mocked by the mainstream for being unsophisticated and planned to escape, Xu Lin, who was trapped in a dark history, and Yin Shu, who was still not recognized as a life-water after debuting for many years...

Many athletes, actors, and drama actors also took to the stage to show off their singing skills.

We certainly cannot expect a commercial variety show to promote social progress by itself. In the history of Tianxia variety shows, no work has really promoted social progress by itself.

But in fact, the popularity of masked music has indeed promoted fair competition in the music industry:
Don’t look at the face, don’t pay attention to the past, don’t care about popularity, don’t care about aesthetics, just compete in singing voice.

"The Masked Singer" has achieved great success in both word-of-mouth and popularity. If the second and third seasons continue, the Masked Singer may become a hall of fame for Tianxia musicians, and even provide a debut opportunity for young people with ambition and ability. Li Huowang is the best example."

-

"The identity of Li Huowang in "King of Masked Singer" is revealed, and it was the chief director Cheng Cheng himself who came out! "

"300 million viewers were stunned! Li Huowang who can sing dolphin sound is actually Cheng Cheng! Netizens: No one has his mental state"

"The biggest star in the history of King of Masked Singer: After the mask was unveiled, the host stood still and even Han Shi didn't dare to comment!"

"The first season of "Masked Singer" came to a splendid end, and several masked singers unveiled their faces and stunned the audience!"

"King of Masked Singer" popular songs

The first season of "King of Masked Singer" has come to an end. Here is a list of all the singers. Who is the No. 1 in your heart?

"The Masked Singer has come to an end. The person in the cocoon is actually Xu Lin. She was once a queen of sweet songs, but now she is deeply involved in a pornographic photo scandal"

Yu Chun: No one can beat me when I sing Tibetan songs

"The life water that defeated Yu Chun turned out to be Yin Shu. How underestimated is he?"

"Cheng Cheng made a bold statement that he will start a global concert tour this year"

The people of the whole country are still in shock.

Yu Chun, Xi Xiang, Xu Lin, and Yin Shu were all revealed yesterday. Except for Xi Xiang, whose identity had been guessed long ago, the other three gave the audience great surprises. In addition, Cheng Cheng was revealed to be Li Huowang, which caused an even greater sensation.

Some media outlets are eager to dig out Xu Lin's movements in recent years and to re-expose her past deeds; some media outlets target Yu Chun's bold remarks and quote her out of context; some media outlets plagiarize netizens' jokes and make fun of Yin Shu in various ways; some media outlets actively contact several of the singers and want to do in-depth interviews.

Of course, the media is more targeting Cheng Cheng.

Everything is for traffic, everything is for popularity.

When you open the trending searches on Weibo, all you see are King of Masked Singer.

1. #Li Huowang Chengcheng#
2. #Cheng Cheng "The Internationale"#
4. #The Masked Singer Season Ends#
7. #Xu Lin is not guilty#
10. #TheKing of Masked Singer sets a new record in variety show voting numbers#
12. #Xia Juan shouts: Yin Shu, go solo#
15. #Xi Xiang: Do I still need to take off my mask? #
In the top ten trending searches, five were related to "The Masked Singer". In the top fifty trending searches, "The Masked Singer" occupied nearly twenty seats. Half of Weibo was dominated by "The Masked Singer", with a total discussion of several billion.

Bilibili, Douyin, Kuaishou, and Zhihu are also full of videos of the Masked Singer.

After King of Masked Singer, Xu Lin, Xi Xiang, Yin Shu, and Yu Chun all saw a surge in popularity. Among them, Xu Lin stood out the most, almost returning to her peak seven years ago. Xi Xiang also established himself in mainland China, and Yin Shu received invitations from several shows.

On the contrary, Cheng Cheng did not accept any interviews when the popularity was at its peak. He quietly joined the crew and continued filming "Zhou Chu Eliminates Three Evils", and did not participate in this pie.

He is like a knight of ancient times:
When I went to the clothes, I learned the name and the name.

Anyway, he doesn't like to eat this traffic and then spit it out, and then eat it again, digesting it over and over again. It's enough to let others know that Li Huowang is him, and wait for his status to be improved.

On Sunday, the official media singled out Cheng Cheng’s “The Internationale” for praise, giving it very strong recognition.

Subsequently, Cheng Cheng responded by opening up "The Internationale" to the whole society, including all copyrights including adaptation rights, performance rights, lyrics and music rights, etc. Any individual or group, whether for commercial or non-commercial purposes, can use it unconditionally.

Monday, "Masked Singer" final season ratings update:
The average viewership was 5.42%, and the peak viewership was 5.81%!

At this point, "The Masked Singer" has completely made history.

Except for Xiangjiang TV's "New Voice of Music" in 2005, there has never been another variety show in the history of domestic variety shows with higher ratings than "King of Masked Singer".

At the same time, the Douban score of "King of Masked Singer" was updated:
9.3 points, with 23 people rating it.

"The King of Masked Singer" will be forever recorded as the most exciting page in the history of domestic variety shows.
