Before Lin Zhu could react, he felt his phone vibrate non-stop, and Ji Qiu's news popped up one after another:

[Xiaozhu!Look at our group! 】

【Han Sheng has been transferred to Class B! 】

[I just said that there must be an inside story in this competition! 】

[Isn't it true that no one is willing to change with him? !What "full respect for the wishes of the players" is simply bullshit! 】

Seeing Lin Zhu in a daze, Duan Li frowned and asked, "Lin Zhu? What's the matter?"

"Oh...it's okay." Lin Zhu came back to his senses, "The director team notified in the WeChat group that Han Sheng has been transferred to Class B."

Duan Li: "Han Sheng? The one who just said on stage that he wants to change shifts? Isn't it true that no one wants to change shifts with him?"

"I didn't know why, so I changed it." Lin Zhu sighed, "Ji Qiu said there was an inside story about the game."

Duan Li frowned: "What's the inside story?"

"I don't know either... Hey, it's okay, don't worry about him, I'll just do my own thing."

Lin Zhu didn't want Duan Li to know the messy things in these circles, so he changed the topic: "School starts tomorrow, do you still have to go to your tutor's laboratory?"

Duan Li: "Yes. Last time, the experiment was handed over to my senior brother and sister. Another group of graduate students has an innovation and entrepreneurship project at hand, and the supervisor of the new semester asked me to study with them."

Lin Zhu put his hands behind his head, leaned back on the chair, and said "Hey": "If I hadn't entered the entertainment circle, I would probably spend all day in the laboratory like you now."

Duan Li also leaned back on the chair, turned his head and glanced at Lin Zhu: "Your practical movements are very beautiful, and you must be able to do well in the experiment."

Lin Zhu half-jokingly said: "Don't, no one in the school knows that you Duan Xueba easily entered a laboratory that other graduate students couldn't apply for. I can't bear you to praise me."

Duan Li smiled lightly, and said seriously: "If you haven't entered the entertainment industry and there is only one place for undergraduates, the tutor will definitely choose you instead of me."

Lin Zhu glanced at Duan Li with an expression of "how did honey smear his mouth today", but didn't speak.

……

When he arrived at the company, Lin Zhu asked Duan Li to wait for him at the bus stop first, and then discussed some work matters with Yang Yi.

Duan Li was silent for a few seconds, then nodded.

Seeing Duan Li walk away, Lin Zhu said to Yang Yi, "Sister Yi, Han Sheng has been transferred."

Yang Yi raised her eyebrows:

"I guessed it. The program team always needs to create some gimmicks to prepare for the ratings. There are four highly respected old-timers in the circle. The judges were shocked. The program team did not dare to do other small tricks. Finally, Han Sheng was willing to make some splashes. The team can't wait for everyone in class B to rush to change with Han Sheng, and it would be better to have another game."

Lin Zhu: "..."

He sighed and said truthfully, "Han Sheng seems to be targeting me."

Yang Yi made a big wave:

"It doesn't seem like it's just coming for you. It should be written in the information I gave you that the WIN men's team has put in a lot of effort to win this competition. Half a month before the competition, they hired professors from the Department of Performance of X University for intensive training. They are determined." To pave the way for Han Sheng and Shen Jun to be an actor.

"And the 'Taigong' contestants are all small artists who are not very well-known in the circle and have mediocre script skills, not to mention you, if it weren't for your senior brother, you would not even be able to get a seat in the auditorium.

"So logically speaking, Han Sheng and Shen Jun will definitely win the two top three awards, but who would have thought that Shen Jun would be defeated by a little-known substitute like you in the first round.

"If it were you, would you feel ashamed and want to kill him?"

Lin Zhu: "...But it's not up to me..."

Yang Yi shook her head helplessly:

"It can only be said that you are unlucky. The reason why Han Sheng wants to transfer this time is probably because you are also in Class A. In short... do your best to compare, there are four judges, Han Sheng can't possibly trip you up Son, if we have strength, we don’t have to be afraid of him.”

Lin Zhu forced a smile: "Understood, thank you sister Yi. Then... I'll go back first."

……

All the way back home from the company, Lin Zhu was feeling sleepy, Duan Li took the initiative to talk to him, but he didn't answer.

It's not that Lin Zhu was worried that Han Sheng would deliberately target him. Anyway, Yang Yi also said that Han Sheng didn't dare to stumbling him. Lin Zhu had nothing to be afraid of in a competition based on strength. Even if there was no system to give him bonuses, he would Can still win the game.

It's just that since the second stage rematch adopts team PK, and Han Sheng has been transferred to Class B, then if he targets Lin Zhu, the entire Class A will suffer accordingly.

After the two games, Lin Zhu had more or less contact with the players. Except for Han Sheng, everyone was friendly to him. He really didn't want to cause trouble to his teammates because of himself.

Back home, Lin Jin and Qin Wenjun were not there, and there was a note written by Lin Jin on the refrigerator:

[Xiaozhu, your mother and I are on the night shift, the food is in the refrigerator, remember to warm it up. 】

Lin Zhu tore off the note and slumped on the chair: "My dad and the others have gone to work. The dinner is in the refrigerator. Let's heat it up before eating."

Duan Li took a look at Lin Zhu, got up and opened the refrigerator to warm up the dishes, and asked casually, "Are you okay?"

Lin Zhu waved his hands, opened his eyes and said nonsense: "It's okay."

He knows all too well that the task of studying medicine is onerous. Since Duan Li will not enter the entertainment industry, there is no need to tell him these bad things that will only increase his troubles.

Duan Li didn't ask any further questions, he heated up the food without saying a word, brought it to the table, and gave Lin Zhu a bowl of rice.

After taking a few mouthfuls, Duan Li suddenly said: "One more person can help me, maybe I can help you."

Lin Zhu: "Ah? Help for what?"

Duan Liyi said succinctly: "In the rematch, the order of playing."

Lin Zhu refused without even thinking about it: "This has nothing to do with you. You will start school tomorrow, and studying is more important."

Duan Li didn't care whether Lin Zhu wanted his help or not, and said to himself:

"The team formation for the last match was determined by the four judges based on your performance in the preliminary round. The strengths of the teams are equal, so although you are divided into classes A and B, the average strength is actually about the same.

"So the order of the players in the next game is not the most important thing, not to mention that you don't know the order of the players in the opponent's class, and you don't have a precise goal. How you arrange it is just a matter of luck."

Lin Zhu forgot that he didn't want Duan Li to worry about him after hearing this, and nodded with his chin in agreement:

"That's right. But the order of appearance will always have an impact, right? There's no reason for the program team to formulate a 1V1 competition system."

Duan Li continued:

"It has influence, but not everyone, but the one with the strongest strength. His win or loss directly affects the morale of his teammates.

"You are the strongest in class A, and Han Sheng is the strongest in class B. I can be sure that as long as your class defeats Han Sheng, then your class will definitely win."

Lin Zhu: "But... how do I know which Han Sheng will be the first to appear?"

Duan Li smiled softly:

"You don't have to think about how Class B will be arranged, you just need to know which one you will be the first to play.

"Since Han Sheng wants to 'revenge' his teammates so much, he will definitely find a way to make his playing order match yours, otherwise how can he 'revenge'?"

Lin Zhu choked up: "...how did you know that Han Sheng wanted to 'revenge' me?"

Duan Li tilted his head slightly: "That Han Sheng picked on you so much, the whole audience was talking about it, I don't know."

"Hey, I didn't want you to know..." Lin Zhu muttered, "Things in the circle are very troublesome, and I get dizzy just thinking about it."

Duan Li said: "That's why we need to find someone to share the burden."

"Yes yes yes." Lin Zhu picked up a chopsticks dish for Duan Li, "Duan Xueba is so powerful, next time I encounter something bad, I will definitely ask you to share it with me."

Duan Li thought for a while and then instructed: "You'd better be the first to go out, defeat Han Sheng, boost the morale of Class A, and win again and again, you don't even need to compete six times, four times is enough .”

Lin Zhu was delighted when he heard this: "Why are you so sure that I can defeat Han Sheng? He still has some strength."

Duan Li: "Well, a little."

Lin Zhu: "...Duan Li, if you praise me again, I'm really going to float!"

……

During the meal, Lin Zhu left his phone in the living room, unlocked it after eating, and saw that the news on WeChat 99+ all came from a six-group chat called "A Game of Life and Death".

It looks like Ji Qiu's style.

Sure enough, the group chat was exactly the group of players from Class A initiated by Ji Qiu.

Lin Zhu roughly browsed through the historical news. Most of the 99+ news were Ji Qiu’s wailing and complaints about the program team’s insanity in disguise. It was rejected by others with the reason that "horse racing is open and transparent, which is basically a blind spy".

Lin Zhu originally wanted to continue spying on the screen, but Ji Qiu suddenly went crazy @ him. After dozens of messages, Lin Zhu had no choice but to post:

[Ji Qiu, stop swiping. 】

Ji Qiu: [I knew you were spying on the screen!I'm so anxious that you still don't come out and say something, it's so uninteresting! 】

Jian Jun: [Lin Zhu didn't look at his phone just now, did he? 】

Lin Zhu: [I was eating just now, and I didn't pay attention to the phone in the living room. 】

Ji Qiu: [I don't care what you were doing just now, have you figured out a way to deal with Class B?After all, we are still in class A, it would be too embarrassing to lose! ! ! 】

Fang Zhou: [Yeah, I almost wanted to blow my head just now.Lin Zhu, do you have any ideas? 】

Zeng Li: [That's right, Lin Zhu, hurry up and tell me what you think, the five of us are all dependent on you! 】

Zhang Xu: [Yes, we all depend on you! 】

【…】

Several people asked Lin Zhu to come up with a solution quickly when he said something to each other. Lin Zhu typed dumbfoundingly:

【My friend gave me an idea just now...】

He told his teammates about the method Duan Li gave him just now, and he didn't shy away from talking about Han Sheng's attack on him, after all, anyone with a discerning eye could see it.

Finally Lin Zhu added:

【The specifics are like this, it seems quite reasonable, but I don’t know if Class B thinks so. 】

Ji Qiu: [Your friend can do it! 】

Zhang Xu: [I think this method is quite reliable. 】

Jian Jun: [I also think it makes sense. 】

Zeng Li: 【Then we will directly follow this method to arrange the order of the scene? 】

Lin Zhu: 【Don't worry about this. Didn't the program team say that we won't receive our order of appearance until the game starts?Let's see if there is any movement in Class B. If my friend's analysis is correct, then someone from them should come to inquire about the news. 】

Fang Zhou, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke: [That... Han Sheng is looking for me...]

Ji Qiu: [! ! ! !What is he looking for you for? ? ?Looking for news? ? ? 】

Fang Zhou: [He didn't ask anything, just apologized to me, saying that he didn't know that the program crew would transfer me to him...]

Ji Qiu: [Apologize? ? ?Han Sheng apologized to you? ? ?This is impossible, there must be something wrong, if it is convenient for you, send the chat history to the big guys. 】

Fang Zhou immediately forwarded a set of chat records to the group, and there was nothing unusual about the content.

Then came the second group of chat records——Han Sheng: [It's good that you didn't worry about it. Seeing that you reply so slowly, are you discussing the order of appearance with your teammates? 】

Ji Qiu: [Let me just say it!Han Sheng's eyes had grown to the top of his head, how could he sincerely apologize to others! 】

Fang Zhou: [...how should I reply? 】

Lin Zhu thought for a while, and typed: [Don't admit it or deny it, just complain about the competition system and see how he responds. 】

Not long after, Fang Zhou sent the third set of records——

Fang Zhou: [Oh, it's annoying to talk about this, the show crew simply let us spy blindly. 】

Han Sheng: [Who says it's not.The people in our team were going crazy with discussions, and they couldn't think of a way. Everyone simply said that the lottery was played. 】

Fang Zhou spoke weakly in "A Game of Life and Death": [How can I answer...]

Lin Zhu: [You just say that the order of appearance is still very important, talk to him about the truth that "a good start is half the battle". 】

Ji Qiu sent a thumbs up emoji: [The cow is still your Brother Lin cow! 】

After a while, the front line sent a fourth set of chat records——

Fang Zhou: [Haha, the lottery is too casual!I think the order of appearance is still very important, isn't there a famous saying that "a good start is half the battle"?If the first one to play wins, it can increase the confidence of the next one, so the order of appearance is still very important. 】

Han Sheng: [You are right, it seems that there is indeed something discussed in the team discussion! 】

Fang Zhou: [I don't understand this, it's all from Lin Zhu, he has a lot of ideas/scratches his head]

Fang Zhou typed in "A Game of Life and Death" and asked: [Is this okay?Okay, I told him I was busy. 】

Lin Zhu: [It's ok, talking too much will easily reveal your secrets, so if Han Sheng can definitely guess that Class A is my first appearance. 】

Ji Qiu posted three laughing emojis in a row: [Fang Zhou, what are you talking about!I don’t even dare to chat with Han Sheng hahaha! 】

Fang Zhou: 【It's too tiring to chat with him. If it weren't for you today, I would never know that he was testing me with every sentence/Goodbye.I will never chat with him again. 】

【…】

The six chatted for a while, and besides confirming that Lin Zhu would be the first to play, they also roughly determined the order of appearance of the others.

Lin Zhu checked the time after chatting, it was already ten o'clock.

Duan Li was also in the living room, but now he was nowhere to be seen. Lin Zhu was so focused on chatting with his teammates that he didn't even know when he left.

Lin Zhu thought for a while, went back to his room, picked up the "Systematic Anatomy" borrowed from Duan Li last time, and knocked on the door of the guest room.

"Please come in."

Seeing Duan Li sitting at the desk sorting out the textbooks for the start of school, Lin Zhu asked casually, "Is this desk still suitable?"

There was no desk in the guest room, but after Duan Li moved in, Lin Jin brought in an extra desk from his study.

Duan Li hesitated for a moment, then said honestly, "...it's a little small."

Lin Zhu smiled and said, "It's not too young, my dad sat well. It's really not my fault for the desk, it's because your legs are too long."

After hearing Lin Zhu's words, Duan Li looked down at the long legs curled up under the table, and muttered, "Then what should I do?"

As soon as Lin Zhu heard Duan Li's pitiful voice, he confessed: "Look at those who have wronged Duan Xueba, I will accompany you to buy one after the competition is over!"

He handed the book in his hand to Duan Li: "Here, I finished reading it. Can you lend me another one?"

Duan Li took it casually and put it on the table: "The books are all in the cabinet next to the bed."

Lin Zhu went to open the cabinet, picked out two books, "Physiology" and "Biochemistry and Molecular Biology", gestured to Duan Li and went back to the room.

Back in the room, Lin Zhu stared at the book in a daze.

It seemed that he hadn't read a book so intently for a long, long time.

Although she is a little transparent in the circle, she still has to go to the company every day to wait for Yang Yi to send her resources or go to the film and television city for an interview.

Yang Yi has a lot of artists in her hands, and the resources that can be distributed to Lin Zhu are either not available or not good, and going to the film and television city for interviews is always hitting a wall. In recent years, there are more and more newcomers in the entertainment industry, and few of them are purely based on strength Most of those who received the script were either from acting families or with strong backgrounds. Lin Zhu once doubted himself whether he was an actor.

But he really didn't want to give up.

Because of love, because I don't want to give up lightly, so I have to work hard even if there are no goals and rewards.

"I never thought of giving up studying medicine, but didn't I also get dropped out?" Lin Zhu muttered to himself, took a deep breath, opened the "Physiology" textbook, and began to concentrate on self-study.

The summer night breeze blows in through the half-closed windows, and the curtains are raised and lowered from time to time.

There is a lot of traffic on the road, young people gossip about the entertainment industry with their mobile phones, and middle-aged people wait in front of the TV for their favorite series to start broadcasting.

As the night gradually deepened, the lights in the community building went out in every household, only the lights in Lin Zhu's room stayed on until late at night.

Lin Zhu, who was so tired that he fell asleep on the pillow, didn't know at the time that soon, he would become the object of discussion and watching before going to bed.

Of course, the most important thing right now is the upcoming second stage rematch of "Taiwan Gong".

You must do your best.

Lin Zhu thought in a daze in his sleep.
