After Being Blackened All Over the Internet, I Ruled the Military Variety Shows
Chapter 780 - 770: "Survival Third Season" Premieres
CHAPTER 780: CHAPTER 770: "SURVIVAL THIRD SEASON" PREMIERES
Early the next morning, before the film set got to work, Jiang Lingxi rushed back to the crew.
Xiaoxiao, in charge of makeup, was well prepared. As soon as Jiang Lingxi sat down in front of the makeup mirror, she quickly started applying makeup skillfully.
After the makeup was done, Jiang Lingxi took Lu Zhengzheng and Fang Yao to the set first and received a wave of congratulations from the crew.
Last night, they rarely had a break, so many people in the crew went to the multimedia room to watch the award live broadcast.
Even those who didn’t watch it could see that the hashtag #JiangLingxiMulanAwardBestActress# was still trending at the top of the hot search list on their phones.
Relevant pushes from major media were coming one after another.
It was impossible not to notice.
However, after the congratulations, it was back to the intense filming schedule.
Feng Xu was initially a bit worried that Jiang Lingxi, being so young and suddenly receiving such a high honor, might get a bit carried away, and was thinking about how to bring her back down to earth.
But after the camera started rolling, he glanced at the monitor and saw that her state was no different from before, even more stable than the others in the crew.
Well, it turned out he worried in vain!
As for Xiao Yu and the others who had scenes opposite Jiang Lingxi: here she comes again, Lingxi is approaching with her unique sense of pressure once more!
They couldn’t help but tense up as well.
Someone just won Best Actress, and her acting stability remained unchanged, so they definitely couldn’t slack off either.

The hype from the Mulan Award ceremony lasted for about a week before fading, and the "Survival" program team took this opportunity to announce online that the "Survival Third Season" was about to launch.
This move was a bit of a play off Jiang Lingxi’s popularity since she was a guest in the first season of "Survival," which was considered the start of her rise to fame. It held quite a bit of commemorative significance.
Upon the release of this news, many netizens flocked to the official account of "Survival Third Season" to ask if Jiang Lingxi would be joining this season.
The program team playfully responded to one of the comments, saying: "The guests for this season will be revealed after the premiere~"
This kept everyone in suspense.
But it worked quite well, as many people were curious about whether Jiang Lingxi, who just won the Mulan Best Actress award, would go back to the ’old friends,’ and the number of reservations for the program quickly skyrocketed.
The day before the "Survival Premiere," Jiang Lingxi finished filming the last scene at midnight.
Tong Yue also came to the set and walked over to her the moment she finished the scene.
"The program starts at 7:30 tomorrow morning, and we’ll be shooting a short airport gathering teaser, then take a two-hour flight to Gezhou Island, and then transfer to a boat to the filming island. We won’t be participating in the airport gathering, we’ll meet directly on the island.
You can remove your makeup and rest for another four hours, then head to the airport. After getting off the plane, you’ll board the speedboat Mr. Shen arranged, and if all goes well, you’ll be able to rendezvous with the program team on time. I’ll take you there and then return the same way."
Jiang Lingxi nodded, removed her gloves, and turned to walk towards Feng Xu.
Feng Xu was watching a playback of the scene just filmed. Jiang Lingxi joined him without interrupting, and only spoke after they finished watching, "Is there anything that needs to be reshot?"
"All good." Feng Xu waved his hand, took his eyes off the monitor, and looked at Jiang Lingxi, "I watched your program, there’s a certain amount of danger. Try not to get hurt, we still have an important scene to film when you return."
"Understood."
She certainly couldn’t let herself get hurt.
This live broadcast, someone had also booked it.
"Go back and rest."
During the filming period, running off to other commitments would never be allowed by him.
However, for something like the Mulan Award, he couldn’t stop her from attending the ceremony.
This "Survival" commitment was made before her role in "Gale" was confirmed as the female lead.
Of course, the main reason was that he found out during this time that Jiang Lingxi had a strong centripetal force, capable of not only working hard herself but also inspiring the rest of the crew to ramp up their efforts.
With everyone collectively pushing forward, the filming progress naturally sped forward, much faster than he had anticipated.
If not, he wouldn’t have allowed the female lead five consecutive days off during this shooting period!
Back at the dormitory, after removing her makeup, Jiang Lingxi lay on the bed.
Compressing the scenes for the next five days to be filmed ahead of schedule was also quite a pressure for her, and within a few minutes of her head touching the pillow, she fell asleep.
Tong Yue carefully left the room with Lu Zhengzheng and Fang Yao, finished packing their luggage, and then each went to sleep.
The four hours flew by in the blink of an eye.
Jiang Lingxi opened her eyes when she heard the door sound, waited for two seconds, and sat up.
Fang Yao, who was sent to wake her up, spoke, "Sister Lingxi, you’re awake?"
"Yes."
"Breakfast is heated, and Sister Tong said we’ll leave in half an hour."
Having an assistant truly made a big difference compared to not having one.
Jiang Lingxi’s room had facilities for cooking, although they hadn’t been used even once during the closed training before.
Since Lu Zhengzheng and Fang Yao’s arrival, it had frequently been used to make porridge or brew some fruit tea.
Heating breakfast in the room meant there was no need to go down to the restaurant.
Fang Yao went out, and it took Jiang Lingxi less than ten minutes to wash, dress, and get ready.
Not needing to apply makeup saved a lot of time.
After having a simple but nutritious breakfast together, they left just about half an hour later, at precisely 7:30.
At this time, the other guests of "Survival Third Season" had already gathered at the airport, and they had just boarded the car heading for the airport.
Lu Zhengzheng pulled out a tablet from her backpack and opened the live broadcast, "Wow, quite a number of people are watching online, there are quite a few early risers tuning in."
Jiang Lingxi turned her head to glance at the screen.
She recognized several familiar faces.
Lin Jing and the adventure expert couple Xu Ai and Zhou Yi were regular guests of "Survival," having participated in the previous two seasons, and didn’t miss this one either.
Xu Zhao wasn’t there; she wasn’t sure if he wasn’t participating or just hadn’t arrived yet.
Just as she thought of Kai Yuan, the camera showed him running into frame, his face flushed red. His first words upon joining the others were, "I didn’t come late, did I?"
The only surprise for her was that the live camera also showed Chen Keyun!
She seemed to be unfamiliar with the rest and sat alone in a corner.
Jiang Kaiyuan greeted all the guests and naturally didn’t leave her out, exchanging a couple of polite words.
Seeing Chen Keyun among the guests, Lu Zhengzheng turned to look at her own Sister Lingxi. She remembered that during the closed training, Chen Keyun was one of the two competitors for Sister Lingxi’s role.
Having lost to Sister Lingxi in the role competition before, would meeting her again on the show reignite past enmities and lead her to target Sister Lingxi?
"Why is Chen Keyun participating too!"
"Who?" Tong Yue, sitting in the front seat, turned her head at the mention of this name, "Chen Keyun is also a guest this season?"
Jiang Lingxi said, "No need to worry, she’s just a fool."
If it were Su Linlin, she might have been a bit worried, not because she feared being schemed against, but because she disliked troublemakers.
But if it was Chen Keyun, by the time they met on the island, the other party would likely feel quite "surprised"!
Set.
Before the set’s start time, Xiao Yu was eating breakfast and also opened the "Survival Third Season" live broadcast on his phone.
In the various standing and seated figures, he spotted Chen Keyun at a glance.
"What’s she doing there too?"
