Seeking Favorites for My Upcoming Novel: Grandma Turns Seventy and Becomes a Sensation in Showbiz
An unfamiliar department store.
A never-before-seen escape game.
During the limited time to form teams, most people clustered around the strong, and Lou Yi was classified as one of the weak.
Others in the same predicament included an elementary school girl, a square-dancing auntie with a waist drum strapped around her waist, a flamboyantly made-up punk, and a sweet, well-behaved nurse...
The five people left behind formed a team.
Against all odds, this team that nobody believed in broke through one stage after another and stubbornly made it to the end.
Lou Yi.
A college student who slacks off during the day and gets depressed at night, she is tall and thin, and always looks weak and listless.
But beneath her frail appearance is an archer with astonishing strength.
When a department store meant for leisure and fun becomes a terrifying escape-game arena, unknown horrors descend upon every team.
B1: The parking garage has become a game of hide-and-seek. When the red light comes on, a gigantic gecko waits to hunt them down, jaws agape.
First floor: Familiar makeup, jewelry, and perfume counters have turned into deadly timed games.
Third floor: The restaurant, with all kinds of food to keep them full, has become a wilderness survival zone. Surviving in such extreme conditions is difficult, and the other teams are even more dangerous and need to be guarded against.
Every tough stage can be overcome.
Many teams are convinced they won't get past the first stage, but the game takes brains and perfect cooperation with your teammates.
A united team is destined to be unstoppable.
As their captain, Lou Yi is her teammates' greatest source of security, as well as the team's spiritual pillar and leader.
From:
"A weakling thinks she can ride on our coattails?"
"She's so skinny. She'll obviously just hold us back."
To:
"A hundred shots, a hundred hits. She's a master archer!"
"Dump that bunch of old, weak, pregnant, and disabled people and come join my team."
Lou Yi scoffs.
She will lead her little team to ultimate victory.
After clearing the game,
Lou Yi returns to the department store once more, hoping no weird games will pop up.
Grandma Turns Seventy and Becomes a Sensation in Showbiz
Jiang Wei is a washed-up actress from the lowest ranks of showbiz. One role finally got her noticed, and she landed a spot on a lifestyle variety show. The program aims to showcase the clash between old and new ideas, so she brought along her grandmother, who had retired from acting years ago.
Before the show aired, she thought her behavior and lifestyle would resonate with today's netizens, helping her gain followers and break into the mainstream.
But she never imagined that clips of her grandmother would spread all over the internet, turning the two of them into a pair of starkly contrasting examples.
The granddaughter did only one thing all morning: sleep.
The grandmother did N things all morning: exercise, buy groceries, water the flowers, paint, and so on.
The granddaughter stayed up late and woke up late, was listless, and had a fragile constitution...
The grandmother went to bed early and woke up early, was as strong as an ox and in robust health...
They vividly embodied the extreme contrast between listless young people and energetic seniors.
A staff member asked her in an interview: "Did you ever think of waking her up?"
Grandma: "Why should I bother? She's an adult with a mind of her own. Sleeping isn't a bad thing. I'm seventy already. Worrying less is better than anything."
Netizens: "The wisdom of life!!!"
Of course, the most entertaining part of the show was the clash between the old and new generations' views on love and marriage.
Granddaughter: "In our line of work, it's easy to fall in love with your co-star."
Grandma: "That's right. When I was young, I'd get a new boyfriend every time I made a film."
Netizens: "Grandma, what are you saying!!!"
Granddaughter: "I will never get married or have children in this life."
Grandma: "Don't be so sure."
Granddaughter: "Don't tell me you're going to nag me about marriage like everyone else."
Grandma: "Hmph. You'd better not get married. Your mom and I won't help you raise your kids. And we have to protect the family business that three generations of our family worked so hard to build."
Netizens: "Grandma really is the clever one!!!"
With her remarkably forward-thinking attitude somehow hitting all the topics people cared about today, netizens started digging into Grandma's past.
They didn't know until they looked, and what they found blew them away.
"You're telling me this is Grandma, the woman who played all those legendary beauties?"
"You're telling me this is Grandma, the woman who won so many awards and honors?"
Thanks to the show, Jiang Shuhui returned to the public eye, and lots of people left comments on her account!
"Grandma, can we stop fooling around? Seventy is the perfect age to chase your dreams. Come out and build your career!"
Theme: Finding hope for life in the face of adversity.
Ah, I can't stand it anymore. Are there really people in real society with such high moral standards as the heroine? If you are incompetent, or just too timid, I would understand that you have been a coward and incompetent character since childhood, but the heroine is not the same! Still being bullied like this, you still have to kidnap yourself morally???
I really like this world view!
Li Chun, you haven't changed. Even if you go back, you are just a blood-sucking insect being used. When will you change?
Hahahahaha! Daily updates! Ha! Ha! Ha!
Sofa! Oh yeah! Daily updates! ! ! !
The only pity is that Chunli left so suddenly
Wuwuwuwu soaring into the sky team
(●—●) The law of failure if you talk too much
The great revenge will be avenged! It's a pity that the description of the situation is not more detailed
