All Furries Love Me!! - Chapter 32 PT1
Chapter 32 PT1 – The Program Team Arrives
At the end of the month, the biting cold wind that had shrouded Anxin City for a long time finally dissipated, and recently there have been rare sunny days for several days in a row.
The production crew of “Where Are We” took advantage of the nice weather and came to Anxin City to prepare for the filming of the episode.
With the warm-up of the previous episodes, the program naturally attracted the attention of many viewers. Although the zoo is not open to the public now, for the sake of safety the program team still arranged personnel to prevent irrelevant personnel from entering the park to interfere with the filming.
Bai Wei did not show up this time. Instead, Hei Jin was the main person in charge who contacted the program team. Ji Xingchun, as the zoo’s signature employee appointed by the director, was also here.
He watched as dozens of people got off the large and small trucks parked on the roadside in front of the zoo, and then they continued to carry down various cameras, live broadcast props, fill lights and other filming equipment that he couldn’t name.
Ji Xingchun couldn’t help but sigh in his heart when he saw this:
They really are professional live broadcasters. Compared with the preparations made by the program team, the live broadcast they did before in the zoo could be said to be very crude.
The originally deserted zoo was now filled with the sounds of people and equipment being moved. Yun Che, who was afraid of noise, had already found a place to hide with a frown on his face. Huang Jing, on the other hand, joined in the fun and watched happily.
While watching the humans working, Huang Jing whispered to Ji Xingchun, “Xiao Ji, aren’t you nervous with so many people around?”
Ji Xingchun coughed. Although he knew that everyone at the zoo knew about his social anxiety disorder, he still felt a little embarrassed to be asked directly like this.
He blinked and answered honestly, “I feel fine now, but later… I don’t know.”
Ji Xingchun’s emotions are relatively stable now, but when he thinks about how many people will be watching his actions through the screen when the live broadcast starts, he can’t help but feel chest tightness and weak legs.
Bai Wei had told him before that if he didn’t want to go, he didn’t have to. After all, this was a live broadcast of a variety show reality show, not Ji Xingchun’s job.
Ji Xingchun was tempted by the director’s proposal, but he couldn’t let it go.
There will definitely be a lot of people watching the live broadcast of the reality show, and the content of the live broadcast will definitely affect the passers-by’s impression of the zoo.
You know, the aura of the zoo is linked to the likes and dislikes of the visitors. In order to ensure the safety of the cubs, the director has asked several new adult demons to cooperate with this operation, but… who can guarantee that there will be no accidents in the process?
Although the director and his men are smart and powerful, they are all demons after all, and do not understand some of the twists and turns of humans.
If Ji Xingchun, who has the ability to read minds, was present, he might be able to detect any bad signs in advance and nip them in the bud, and even if an accident really occurred, he might be able to remedy the situation to some extent.
In short, for the sake of the cubs in the zoo, Ji Xingchun had to grit his teeth and do it even if he had a phobia of socialising.
Huang Jing heard Ji Xingchun’s answer. Although he couldn’t read minds, he could feel the young man’s determination. The dog demon’s eyes flashed, and then he suddenly opened his arms and gave Ji Xingchun a big hug.
Ji Xingchun was stunned for a moment. Although Huang Jing, as a dog demon, looked like a sunny and cheerful big boy in human form, his actual height was definitely among the top among humans. At this moment, he directly held him in his arms.
If it was someone else who did this, Ji Xingchun would have goosebumps all over his body and pushed the person away, but…
What bad intentions could Big Dog have?
Huang Jing held Ji Xingchun in his arms, patted the young man’s back twice, and then said in a serious tone: “Don’t be nervous, Xiao Ji, I have absorbed the social phobia factor in you! Now I will pass my social awesomeness power to you!”
Ji Xingchun couldn’t help laughing when he heard this. He had to admit that after Huang Jing did this, he did… relax, and his originally anxious mood was relieved a lot.
When the other party let go of him, Ji Xingchun still had a smile on his face. The young man coughed and then said, “What do you mean by social phobia and social awesomeness… Where did you learn this?”
Huang Jing smiled smugly. If he were in his demon form, his tail would have been raised:
“I saw it on one of those short video apps of yours! It’s really interesting! How on earth did you invent such fun things?”
Ji Xingchun: It’s bad. After the show is finished, he has to take Huang Jing for walks more often. He can’t let the other party become an internet addict.
During the time Ji Xingchun and Huang Jing were talking, a van happened to drive to the entrance of the zoo.
The car door opened, and Ji Xingchun saw a pair of long legs stepping out of the van, followed by a handsome but greasy-looking young man who appeared in front of them.
There was a hint of gloom between the young man’s brows, and he looked unhappy. Ji Xingchun subconsciously felt that this person might be difficult to get along with.
Huang Jing was unaware of this and excitedly discussed with Ji Xingchun:
“Xiao Ji! Is this a celebrity? This is the first time I am seeing one!!”
Huang Jing did not deliberately lower his voice when he spoke, so naturally Ling Ziyang on the other side also heard it.
Ling Ziyang was woken up by his assistant to put on makeup before dawn. Then he got car sick on the way to the zoo. He was in a bad mood.
Huang Jing’s surprised look made Ling Ziyang couldn’t help but sneer in his heart, thinking that people in such small cities are just ignorant.
But it is undeniable that Huang Jing’s words made him feel a lot better. After all, who doesn’t like the feeling of being admired?
If this guy with dyed yellow hair comes to him and asks for his autograph later, it’s not impossible for him to…
Ling Ziyang was thinking this when he heard the second half of Huang Jing’s words:
“But who is he? Xiao Ji, do you know him?”
Ling Ziyang: ???
When Ji Xingchun heard Huang Jing say this, he recalled a little bit- he heard that “Where Are We Going” would be broadcast live at the zoo, so he specially checked who the invited guests were for this episode.
“It seems to be… his name is Ling Ziyang.” He seems to be a second- or third-tier artist under an entertainment company whose name he didn’t remember. He has been frequently hyped on the Internet recently, and it seems that there is a bit of blood and gore in his tone.
Ji Xingchun replied, but naturally he didn’t say the second half of the sentence.
Huang Jing said, “Oh,” and said, “Speaking of celebrities, do they all have to make movies and TV series? Has he made any movies?”
“This… I don’t know either?” Ji Xingchun said.
At that time, he simply searched Ling Ziyang’s name, and the extent of his understanding of this person was just enough to match his face.
When Ling Ziyang heard their conversation, his face turned red with anger!
Ji Xingchun and Huang Jing, one a human and one a demon, didn’t know much about the entertainment industry, so they naturally didn’t know that they had inadvertently stepped on Ling Ziyang’s sore spot.
Ling Ziyang is an internet celebrity who has no real talent and relies entirely on endorsements to make money from his fans. Although he has played the leading role in one or two TV series, his terrible performance meant that the TV series did not make any splash after they were aired.
However, bloggers who criticize TV dramas would occasionally pull him out and laugh at his dull performance.
The speaker may not mean it, but the listener may take it seriously. In Ling Ziyang’s mind, the casual conversation between Ji Xingchun and Huang Jing seemed to be a prepared response, just to secretly ridicule him!
How could Ling Ziyang possibly tolerate this?!
Anyway, the show hasn’t started yet and the other guests haven’t arrived yet, so Ling Ziyang no longer cares about his agent’s advice to keep a low profile. He directly walked towards Ji Xingchun angrily!
However, before Ling Ziyang could react, a female voice suddenly said, “Excuse me, are you two employees of Anxin Wildlife Park?”
He saw a tall and slender woman who was taking off her sunglasses and looking over here with a smile.
Next to this woman stood a sweet-looking girl with delicate makeup, and they were holding each other’s arms in a very intimate manner.
When Ling Ziyang saw two more guests suddenly coming, his anger that was about to flare up suddenly died down, because he knew the two people in front of him.
Qiu Shurong and Luo Tiantian are members of a very popular girl group in China with many loyal fans. Qiu Shurong is the lead dancer of the group, while Luo Tiantian is the lead singer.
Judging from their postures, they clearly saw that Ling Ziyang wanted to cause trouble for Ji Xingchun and the others, so they came to interrupt them deliberately.
Over there, Ji Xingchun noticed Qiu Shurong and the other person, then looked at Ling Ziyang who had a constipated look on his face behind him, and immediately realized that he had almost gotten into trouble unintentionally.
Ji Xingchun felt helpless as he had fallen out with a guest before the show even started, but with Qiu Shurong and the others standing in front of him, he chose to answer the previous question first.
After all, the person is right in front of you, and it would be very impolite to leave him alone.
Ji Xingchun nodded, and signaled Huang Jing with his eyes not to speak and let him speak: “Yes, we are the employees here…Excuse me, what can I do for you?”
When Luo Tiantian saw the calm expressions of the two handsome guys in front of her, she thought about it and guessed that they probably didn’t pay much attention to the entertainment industry.
Pursing her lips quietly, Luo Tiantian thought that Ling Ziyang was just like what his agent said, a fool with a very high opinion of himself.
This was their first time at the zoo, and even if they had a script, if they offended the staff, who knows if they would trip them up after the live broadcast began…
Ling Ziyang, on the other hand, not only did not intend to have a good relationship with them, but also prepared to take the initiative to cause trouble.
It seems that she has to stay away from this guy when the show starts, so as not to implicate herself when he does something stupid.
Qiu Shurong and Luo Tiantian asked Ji Xingchun and the others some questions about the routes and facilities in the zoo. Seeing that he had no chance to attack, Ling Ziyang had to sit aside and drink water.
After waiting for about half an hour, when it was about time for the live show to start, the host, Qi Wenhan’s face suddenly looked a little ugly.
Another female host, Wang Shiyi, also looked unhappy. She frowned and said, “We will go live on time when the broadcast starts. It’s the person’s own fault if he’s late anyway.”
Just as she finished her words, a car horn sounded and the last guest finally arrived.
The car door opened, and a young man about seventeen or eighteen years old walked out of the car. He was a little short among men, and his facial features were delicate and neutral, but his temperament gave people a vaguely feminine feeling.
This person was the last guest, Xu Cheng. Ji Xingchun remembered that the internet said that Xu Cheng was a creative singer and actor who had released several popular pop songs on short video platforms. Xu Cheng looked pale, with one hand covering his mouth, and he looked a little shaky as he walked down, as if he was unwell.
But he didn’t go to rest. Instead, he came over here immediately with a look of apology on his face:
“I’m sorry to have kept you all waiting. I got carsick on the way here, and my assistant who drove me here was a little worried, so he slowed down a bit. I hope I didn’t disturb the show…”
After hearing what he said, the two hosts were still a little dissatisfied, but after all, filming was more important, so they didn’t say anything and just asked the four guests to get ready.
Ji Xingchun looked at Xu Cheng. For some reason, he always felt that there was something uncomfortable about this person.
Xu Cheng just got out of the car to explain why he was late. His words seemed sincere, but in fact he was secretly putting the blame on his assistant.
The assistant slowed down because he was worried? If you really didn’t want to delay the show, why didn’t you ask the assistant to drive faster?
As your assistant’s boss who pays his salary, can he force you to drive slowly against your wishes?
Ji Xingchun suddenly became a little worried about this live broadcast.
