Chapter 35 -35 Home Visit Recording
Wu Mu hadn’t watched “Star Agency” before, so after he got the job, he went out of his way to check it out and found that the cast was quite luxurious.
There were industry veterans and powerful variety show personalities, as well as popular young actors and up-and-coming actresses, and they often invited various well-known guest stars to the program.
It was clear that Beijing TV Station wanted to make this show a hit and was willing to spend big money on it.
But the result was obviously not as good as hoped.
The show couldn’t be said to be a flop, but it also had nothing to do with being a blockbuster—it was just lukewarm.
After Wu Mu watched it, he felt that the camera work and post-production were pretty good and had a nice vibe, but the guests really didn’t mesh well together; there wasn’t much chemistry.
The veteran leading the show didn’t bring the desired effect and could only force a persona.
The trendy young actors with idol baggage couldn’t let loose, making every shot of them look like they were just showing off.
The younger actresses were, well, let’s just say not the brightest.
The only one who had an effect was the experienced variety show personality, but even he couldn’t save the show alone.
Beijing TV Station seemed to be aware of the show’s issues and candidly said that inviting Wu Mu was because of his popularity and his ability to enliven the show, asking him to let loose once he joined.
Wu Mu had no objections.
After signing the new show, he could relax and lie flat again.
He alternated between staying at home playing games and keeping an eye on Star Electronics’ online buzz.
Star Electronics’ crisis PR was quite strong; the morning after he leaked the information, they issued a statement saying they had never blacklisted Wu Mu and that these were false rumors.
Then they coordinated search engine de-listing and hired online commenters to shift attention.
The buzz was quickly brought under control.
Just as Wu Mu had thought, his exposure hadn’t brought much actual damage to Star Electronics.
After all, it wasn’t some huge scandal like a legal offense; even if it was a bit of bullying, it was bullying him, an idol with a tarnished reputation.
The public just enjoyed the drama but wouldn’t truly support him in seeking justice. As the heat died down, so did people’s interest.
Wu Mu wasn’t regretful; there would be other days.
…
In the blink of an eye, it was the 20th, one week after signing the new show.
Early in the morning, Wu Mu was rudely awakened.

Someone was ringing his doorbell outside.
“Who is it?” he mumbled groggily as he went to open the door.
Then as soon as the door opened, he was fully woken by the surprise.
There was a crowd outside his door, seven or eight people, all carrying various cameras, and two big black cameras were pointed directly at him.
“Mr. Wu Mu, we are from the Star Agency program team. I’m Lin Qingyue, the director who contacted you earlier. Could we come in to shoot a pilot episode in your house?” A pretty young lady with neat short hair, standing at the back, asked.
Wu Mu looked at the cameras with their green lights on, speechless, “You guys are already filming, aren’t you?”
Lin Qingyue laughed, “We wanted to shoot some footage of your daily routine. If it bothers you, we can cut it out.”
Wu Mu was indifferent, “I don’t mind, it’s just that you’ve come too early, I haven’t even woken up yet.”
He yawned and stepped aside, “Come in then.”
“Great, thank you. Just act as you normally would—as if we aren’t here. If there’s any content you don’t want to be aired, just let me know, and we’ll cut it,” Lin Qingyue invited herself in along with her team without hesitation.
Whatever then.
Wu Mu didn’t care and went back to his room to freshen up.
Lin Qingyue directed one camera to follow Wu Mu, while another filmed the interior of Wu Mu’s house.
As she directed the filming, she also observed Wu Mu’s home.
She was quite surprised; she never imagined that Wu Mu’s house would look like this.
It was just a small house of forty or fifty square meters—after squeezing in seven or eight people, it even felt a little too crowded to stand.
The decor was from three or four decades ago, in that last-century style, very retro and dilapidated.
Various furniture in the living room like tables and cabinets were all ancient, some even broken, which looked quite shabby.
Wu Mu used to be a top idol; how come his home was so poor?
Lin Qingyue was puzzled.
Thinking aside, she didn’t stop working and pointed to a spot for the cameraman, “Give this area a close-up, come in from the left, sweep around the living room, then slow down the cut.”
She was pointing to an old sofa against the wall of the living room, which was littered with various items: books, clothes, a computer, a gaming console, a stack of game cartridges.
Quite a leisurely life, isn’t it?
Blacklisted and not in a hurry at all?
Lin Qingyue thought to herself and also noticed that this man really enjoyed gaming. He used to play games every day as a singer-songwriter, and now his home was also full of games.
“Give the trash can a close-up too.”
After filming the sofa, she directed the cameraman to capture the trash can.
Inside were various leftover food delivery packages, all quite fancy, obviously not cheap stuff.
Live in a modest place but don’t skimp on food.
Not caring about living conditions, but having high standards for food, liking to play games, not too keen on tidying up, but clean—no trash on the floor, and not much dust around the house.
Lin Qingyue sketched a picture of Wu Mu’s private life in her mind.
She found it had a significant contrast to his former identity as a top idol.
After they finished shooting the sofa area, she continued to observe Wu Mu’s home when she made another discovery on a cabinet near the balcony.
On the cabinet was a photo frame.
The photo inside was clearly a family portrait of three.
But the position of the man on the right side of the family portrait had been cut out, leaving only the left side—a beautiful smiling woman and a little boy leaning against her legs.
From the brows and eyes of the boy, Lin Qingyue could tell at a glance that this was Wu Mu as a child.
Wu Mu and his mother?
The right side cut out, a divorced family?
Lin Qingyue directed the cameraman for a close-up of the photo.
But before they could film, they were interrupted.
It was Wu Mu, who had finished brushing his teeth and washing his face. He was curiously looking at Lin Qingyue’s filming. Seeing that Lin Qingyue wanted to film the photo of his mother, he quickly intervened, “Hey, don’t film this, okay?”
“Of course, Mr. Wu Mu,” Lin Qingyue complied without insisting.
Not happy with the family life and not wanting the public to know his past.
She continued to outline in her mind.
After filming Wu Mu’s house, both cameras again turned towards Wu Mu.
Lin Qingyue started a brief interview with him, “Mr. Wu Mu, your home is simpler than expected. After you made money, didn’t you think about buying a bigger house?”
