Prodigal System in the Flourishing City

Chapter 399: Chapter 397: Dominated by the Name Lu Xiaobu【Third Release with 26k Recommendation Votes Bonus】

The audience has all left.

Now only the program team remains.

Before this, ”The Voice” was kept under wraps.

But now, after one episode of filming, the members of the program team also know just how incredible Lu Xiaobu’s creativity really is!

”Do you think our ratings could reach the station’s requirement of 0.8%?”

Elder Wang said cheerfully.

”I think it will definitely be more than that, just not sure how much more. I have a feeling that our show is going to be a hit!”

A female editor laughed.

”No need for feelings, it’s definitely going to be a hit!”

Zhang Feng’s back teeth showed as he smiled.

One male director said, ”Today’s contestants all performed so well! Our stage and the sound effects are also amazing! The stage that Young Master Bu spent a billion on, as well as the equipment he bought, is truly beyond words!”

At this moment, Director Nie came running up to Lu Xiaobu, all excited.

”Young Master Lu, what do you think our program’s ratings will be?!”

His previous doubts about Lu Xiaobu and disbelief in ”The Voice” had long since vanished into smoke.

Now, he finally realized how correct it was for him to be so firm in taking down Yuan Xu’s program before.

He backed the right horse and made a fortune!

”How would I know? At the very least, it should be over 1%,” Lu Xiaobu shrugged.

”That’s for sure, 1% for certain!” Director Nie patted his chest in guarantee: ”If it doesn’t reach 1%, I’ll eat shit on live broadcast.”

”Alright, Zhang Feng, go tell the editing team to make it as crappy, edit it as crappy as possible.” Lu Xiaobu nodded his head and waved Zhang Feng away, then said to Director Nie, ”Which live streaming platform are you planning to choose? How about going with Shadow Weibo?!”

”Pfft!”

Director Nie felt like he almost spat out a mouthful of old blood.

Young Master Lu, this isn’t how we should play.

Of course, this was all just a joke.

Let alone whether Lu Xiaobu would really issue such an order, even if he did, Zhang Feng and the others would probably resist it to the death!

Having nothing better to do, Lu Xiaobu strolled backstage.

At this moment, the four coaches were giving individual guidance to their trainees.

Seeing Lu Xiaobu coming in,

Sun Wanqi’s eyes narrowed, revealing a hint of light.

It was this guy who forced her to act cute.

She let out a cold huff: ”Ning Feiping, come with me.”

Ning Feiping originally wanted to thank Lu Xiaobu, but upon hearing Sun Wanqi’s words, his face showed a trace of difficulty.

”Go on, go ahead.”

Lu Xiaobu waved his hand.

”Thank you, Young Master Bu!”

Only then did Ning Feiping bow in gratitude and follow Sun Wanqi away.

”By the way, remember to send me a separate copy of Sister Sun’s cute video, I want to enjoy it properly in bed tonight.”

Lu Xiaobu said in a voice that was neither loud nor soft at this moment.

Upon these words,

Everyone clearly saw Sun Wanqi’s figure stumble a bit.

The others also twitched at the corners of their mouths.

Young Master Bu, do you have to do this?!

And enjoying it in bed?

What exactly are you planning to do?!

After the teasing,

”Xiaobu, the last question you asked today really put me in a spot, don’t you think you owe me some compensation?” Grandma Jia Yi found Lu Xiaobu.

”What compensation?!”

Lu Xiaobu was taken aback.

”Nothing much, just tell me how many promising talents there will be next episode.”

Grandma Jia Yi said shrewdly.

”I don’t know.” Lu Xiaobu shrugged, ”At most, I’d only know a little bit earlier than you guys. I can’t be bothered to remember such stuff. Why don’t you ask Zhang Feng and the others?”

”Alright alright, I won’t ask.” Grandma Jia Yi rolled her eyes, ”Passing the buck to me, huh. Who doesn’t know that in this program team, even though you are a hands-off shopkeeper, without your word, who dares to mess around?!”

Lu Xiaobu spread his hands.

”But really, your program is fantastic! No complaints!” Grandma Jia Yi changed the topic and praised, ”I was a bit reluctant at first. Now it seems that if I hadn’t come, I would have regretted it terribly. Who would have thought that our country had so many great voices and talented singers, and all from grassroots levels!”

Chen Wen and Fang Li beside were nodding their heads frantically.

Indeed.

Originally, they came to express their gratitude.

Now, upon reflection, this isn’t about repaying kindness—they’re incurring an even greater debt of gratitude!

Had they known the show was really this good, it wouldn’t have been Young Master Bu knocking on their door, but them seeking out Young Master Bu to join the show.

Even without a joining fee!

After all, they’re celebrities too, needing exposure and notable works to show off.

A stellar program on a grand stage like ”The Voice”, an opportunity not easily found, is also a huge boost to their popularity.

Such a great show is highly beneficial for the guests, the production team, the advertisers, and the TV station.

Of course, Lu Xiaobu benefits the most.

After all, Lu Xiaobu wears many hats!

”Alright, everyone must be tired today, come on, rewards, ten thousand for each person!”

Lu Xiaobu gestures grandly.

”Thank you, Young Master Bu, Young Master Bu, may your fame last a thousand generations—dominate Jianghu!”

The crowd rejoices and expresses their thanks immediately!

Following Young Master Bu is great—achievements, recognition, and tips!

Awesome!

Lu Xiaobu laughs heartily: ”Get on with it, make sure the editing is spot on! Especially with Ning Feiping, do it well!”

”Yes!”

Everyone accepts the order!

With a mentor like Young Master Bu...

How could they not put in their utmost effort?!

...

Evening time.

Just past eight o’clock, almost eight-thirty.

As the broadcast of ”The Voice” draws near.

Outside and online, discussions about ”The Voice” are ramping up.

But as before, public opinion isn’t optimistic about ”The Voice”.

Most people are pessimistic.

”The Voice premieres today, huh.”

”Yeah, but it doesn’t matter—it’s the same old thing.”

”We’re sick of talent shows; better off watching sports instead.”

”I’ll still take a look. After all, it’s Lu Xiaobu’s show, it might be surprising.”

”Surprise my ass; I can’t be bothered watching, I’ll continue with my game instead.”

”Actually, I do want to check it out, not for the show, but to see the moment Lu Xiaobu’s bluffing gets busted by his own hands.”

”Now that you mention it, I want to see that too!”

”Let’s watch, then we can mock it together, hahaha!”

”...”

On Weibo.

Those professionals are vigorously resisting Lu Xiaobu.

”Who’s made predictions for ’The Voice’’s ratings?”

”Our internal analysis says it definitely won’t surpass 0.6%!”

”Our analysis is similar; I’m curious to see how Lu Xiaobu wraps this one up. He’s acting like no one dares to chirp before he sings in spring. What a joke! Can’t wait to see Lu Xiaobu slap his own face!”

”Shows that maliciously hike up the price to get stars to join should be boycotted from the get-go. Does money distort the market? We’re in the entertainment industry, not the business sector! Lu Xiaobu, you may have money, but that’s not how the entertainment industry works.”

”I just want to see Lu Xiaobu’s face after the show airs, the face of getting slapped.”

These Weibo posts are from the same professionals who previously lashed out at Lu Xiaobu.

They’re all from the TV entertainment industry, some even being leading figures and famous analysts.

The long list of their titles and affiliations alone is intimidating!

Thus, online comments are almost unanimously negative!

There are even numerous fabricated negative rumors about ”The Voice”!

”According to informants, the recording scene was unbearable.”

”Cancellation is inevitable.”

”Lu Xiaobu and his Heavenly Dynasty’s ’The Voice’, sentenced to death?”

The internet is rife with rumors.

But the ”Heavenly Dynasty’s ’The Voice’” production team remains calm like fishing for fish, quietly waiting for the moment of broadcast.

You think we’re no good?!

Haha!

You’ll once again be ruled by the name Lu Xiaobu!
