Chapter 389 Cheating
The director’s face was cold as he pointed at Li Li and scolded her, “Didn’t you promise not to deliberately target Fang Mo’er on the show? Do you know how much trouble you’ve brought to the program team? From now on, you’re no longer the host of this show.” There had never been any intention of calling Li Li over for this meeting. Calling her over would have only caused more trouble.
“What right do you have to replace me?” Li Li felt extremely wronged. She had been bullied by the guest and had ended up being replaced instead.
The director said coldly, “You were using your official position to settle personal grudges. You don’t deserve to be this host anymore.”
“But, we’re a prank show. What’s wrong with me pranking an artiste?”
It was not like Li Li had never targeted an artiste on the show before. In the end, that artiste’s reputation had been ruined, and the show had become even more popular.
This kind of thing was a win-win situation for both Li Li and the program team. So all along, as long as there was a topic to talk about, everyone had turned a blind eye to it and had not said anything.
Why had it suddenly become such a serious matter?
Li Li glared at the director unhappily. “I signed a contract. You can’t just replace me like that.”
A staff member could not take it anymore and said, “You’ve caused the show to have to be changed. The entire show might be completely canceled, yet you still want to continue hosting. We haven’t even asked you for compensation yet!”
Changed? The program was going to be canceled? Li Li’s heart skipped a beat. She looked at everyone present in disbelief.
She noticed on the computer screen that the direction of the program’s overhaul was being discussed.
Realizing the seriousness of the problem, Li Li felt a chill down her spine. She did not dare to be arrogant anymore.
There was no such thing as walking by the river without getting her shoes wet. The artistes who had been pranked in the past had not had the ability to retaliate. Now that Li Li had kicked an iron plate, it was clear that she was not that innocent.
Several people who were usually dissatisfied with Li Li even ordered some people to chase her out. The door was closed again and they continued to discuss the change of direction.
Half an hour later, the door was opened again. The director walked out in a hurry.
He then walked straight to the guest lounge.
Fang Mo’er was resting in her room with her eyes closed.
She did not know how long the program team had said she would have to wait for the announcement. Just as she was about to fall asleep, someone knocked on her door.
Fang Mo’er opened her eyes and got out of bed. When she opened the door, she saw the director’s smiling face.
Fang Mo’er was momentarily stunned before she heard the director say, “Miss Fang, this is the program’s modification plan. Please have a look and see if there’s anything you need to correct.”
The director did not hesitate to show the results of the discussion to Fang Mo’er.
Fang Mo’er was confused by the director’s strange behavior. She took a look at it and realized that it was really a change of direction.
Although the program team was still following the path of pranking, their selling point had been changed. Instead of causing artistes to make a fool of themselves, the artistes would now be competing against the program team using their intelligence and courage. Moreover, the intensity of the pranking had also decreased significantly and would not embarrass the artistes too much.
Fang Mo’er took a look and after realizing that it was actually the follow-up program’s segment design, she immediately closed the information.
She said a little sheepishly, “I didn’t expect that there would be this.”
If she were to see it, wouldn’t that be cheating?
The director hurriedly smiled and said, “Miss Fang, this was also prepared for you. You will be the first person in our program to rely on fighting spirit and courage, and the first person to make the program team fall. We will give you a trophy later on.” Fang Mo’er’s mouth twitched. Did the program team really want to be defeated so badly? They had even prepared a trophy.
Just as Fang Mo’er was still digesting this matter, the director added, “Our host has also been replaced. Miss Fang, you can continue to participate in the program without worry.”
The director could not wait to pat his chest and say that the filming for the rest of the program could be done without worry. There would not be anything that would make Fang Mo’er uncomfortable anymore.
He had even thoughtfully marked all the loopholes for Fang Mo’er.
Faced with such a sincere director, Fang Mo’er did not know what to say. At the same time, she wondered if this was also part of the prank.
Fang Mo’er was cautious on the inside, but on the surface, she smiled and thanked the director for his thoughtful arrangements.
The director was sincere. How else could he dare to accept Fang Mo’er’s gratitude?
