Chapter 90: Erhu

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

At night, Yu Su and the others returned to the small courtyard after dinner and realized that the director, Yu Miao, and the others were already waiting in the courtyard.

Upon seeing them, the director immediately asked them to come over. Then, he began to talk about the arrangements for the performance the day after tomorrow and informed the guests to prepare everything in advance.

Just as the production team announced the list of guests’ performances this time and while the guests were making final preparations for the performance the day after tomorrow, many unfavorable comments suddenly appeared on the Internet.

[I think the production team must have a script. Yu Su must have acted according to the script. Otherwise, how could she have rehearsed shadow puppetry in such a short time?]

[Yu Su’s shadow puppetry must not look good. I’ve never heard of her knowing this before.]

[The production team actually dares to assure that it is authentic. I want to report it!]

[I heard that Yu Su saved Director Lin’s sister before, so she got a spot in this show.]

[Everyone, think about it carefully. I don’t think it’s as simple as the previous poster said. There must be something fishy going on.]

[If that’s the case, didn’t the director specially tailor this variety show for Yu Su?]

These bad comments were posted by the fake reviewers that Yu Hong had gotten someone to buy in the beginning. The sibling relationship and little fairy persona that he had tried to arrange for Yu Miao previously did not have a good effect.

In fact, under Yu Su’s comparison, not only was Yu Miao not as popular as he had expected, but her reputation had also fallen a little. He was really holding his anger in. He could not tolerate his plan failing, so he bought fake reviewers and claimed that the production team wanted to promote Yu Su to smear Yu Su.

Although he knew that this could not completely suppress Yu Su, it could also wash away Yu Miao’s slightly collapsed persona.

When Yu Ruo and Yu Miao’s fans saw this, they immediately followed the trend and cooperated with the paid reviewers to scold Yu Su for being shameless.

Yu Su’s few fans came out to refute, but because there weren’t as many of them as the hired posters and the fans Yu siblings, those refutations were quickly drowned out.

Yu An and the director, who had returned to the front of the screen, saw the large number of comments. They all knew very well that someone had hired paid posters to deliberately defame Yu Su and the production team.

Yu An and Director Lin frowned at the same time. They knew that if they let this continue, it would not be good for the program and the guests.

“If we really had a script, I would accept it, but we clearly don’t have a script. It’s really aggrieved to be slandered like this.” Director Lin’s tone was filled with displeasure.

Just as Director Lin was at a loss, Yu An recalled that Yu Su had once mentioned learning erhu from her adoptive father.

Hence, he said beside the director, “Yu Su knows how to play erhu. Director, you can let Yu Su improvise a song. I think everyone will reduce such comments after listening to it.”

“Will this work?” Director Lin was a little hesitant.

“Yu Su has been by her master’s side since she was young and has learned many skills. For example, I’ve heard her mention the erhu before,” Yu An said calmly without changing his expression.

After hearing Yu An’s words, the director did not hesitate anymore. He immediately got someone to borrow an erhu from the old man in the folk band. After a simple communication with Yu Su, Yu Su decisively agreed to play a song with the erhu to help the production team clear their suspicion of having a script.

“But I hope that the Director can invite everyone from the folk band over. That might be more convincing,” Yu Su suggested.

The director nodded and quickly sent someone to invite the village chief over. He asked the village chief to invite the old people of the folk band over.

[Just now, many netizens on the Internet suspected that our show had a script. In order to prove that there was no script for the show, the production team decided to vote online to choose a song for the folk music band to perform together alongside an erhu. The song with the highest number of votes can be played live by Yu Su and the folk band. The voting time is from 8 p.m. to 8.30 p.m. Everyone is welcome to participate actively.]

While waiting for the village chief and the others to come over, the director followed the method taught by Yu An and asked for the approval from the higher-ups. Soon, the higher-ups approved his suggestion and he immediately launched this small event on the official account.

As soon as this small event was released, it received a large number of reposts. Many netizens participated in the event. After the 8:30 event ended on time, the most popular song was “Ambush From Ten Sides”. The production team also carried out their promise and planned for Yu Su and the folk band to play this song..
