The show gave 8,000 kronor to the guests. After some discussion, the guests decided that Tao Tao would be in charge of keeping the money.
The transportation problem was easy to solve. There were cars outside the airport and they could stop at a moment's notice.
Then came the first problem: accommodation.
During a trip, other than transportation, the biggest expense was accommodation.
Liu Ziyu brushed her hair and said, "We're all public figures. It's not appropriate for us to stay outside. It'll be awkward if fans recognize us. Let's stay in a hotel."
"But …" Tao Tao hesitated. "It's too expensive to stay in a hotel. I checked just now. A good hotel here costs 2,000 kronor a night. A hotel only costs 200 kronor."
"What about a normal hotel? It doesn't need a star rating. It's fine as long as it's clean," Zhang Yunfei asked.
"About 500 to 1,000 kronor."
"I've filmed here before." Luo Qiuman, who had been silent, finally spoke. "It's very cheap to rent a villa in the countryside, and the environment is good."
Liu Ziyu said, "But what time is it now? Are we going to spend the night in the car?"
Liu Ziyu was right. It was already late at night in Denmark.
If they went to the countryside now, they would indeed have to spend the night in the car.
It was fine for a group of men, but there were also the older Luo Qiuman and the female stars.
Qi Xingchen thought for a while and said, "How about staying in a hotel for the night? It's not safe or convenient for girls to stay in a small hotel or a place to stay. We can go to the countryside tomorrow. Maybe we can pass by a tourist destination on the way."
"That's right," Zhang Yunfei said. "Tao Tao, book a room."
Tao Tao asked, "How many rooms?"
Everyone was in a dilemma again.
There were six guests in total. The budget for six rooms was definitely not enough.
If two people shared a room, there would be three men and three women. One man and one woman would have to share a room.
In fact, this was the show's plan. They deliberately chose an odd number of guests. This way, there would be a segment where men and women would stay together during the trip.
At that time, whether the two parties agreed to promote a couple or one party paid to ride on the popularity of the couple, it would only be beneficial for "Budget Traveler."
"How about a standard room or a suite?" Zhang Yunfei suggested.
Qi Xingchen did some calculations. "Two girls can stay in a standard room, and four people can stay in a suite. This is cheaper than three standard rooms."
"Then it's settled," Liu Ziyu said sarcastically. "Xing Xing, you're really good at scheming."
Qi Xingchen joined the acrobatic troupe when he was five years old. After that, he learned acrobatics while attending school.
A small acrobatic troupe was like a miniature version of a small society. It could be said that he had already entered society when he was young.
He was very familiar with Liu Ziyu's tone.
She was clearly mocking him for being poor and sloppy.
Before the recording of the show, Liu Ziyu's team had checked everyone's background and easily found out that Qi Xingchen was a child of a working-class family.
There was always a need to find someone to quarrel with in the show. Either that or the camera wouldn't focus on you.
If you quietly recorded the show, you would only be marginalized. You had to find ways to stir up trouble to get attention. This was the truth of the black and red lines.
And among these guests, if she provoked others, their fans wouldn't let her go.
Qi Xingchen was different. He only had a few tens of thousands … Now, he had 200,000 fans. His fighting power couldn't be compared to her seven million fans.
He was the easiest to bully.
So she stared at Qi Xingchen.
Qi Xingchen didn't care too much. He had heard worse words than this before. He pretended not to hear and turned his head to stare at Tao Tao.
"Can you guys understand it?" As he spoke, Liu Ziyu also stretched his neck over.
On the surface, she seemed to be concerned about Tao Tao's situation, but in fact, she was in front of Bai Ye.
As the most popular person in the entertainment industry, Bai Ye was the ideal person for female stars to ride on his popularity.
Liu Ziyu's team had thought about it for a long time, but Bai Ye had always been protective of his reputation and rarely accepted private invitations from female stars. He also rarely went on other entertainment shows except for music.
They didn't expect that he would come to "Budget Traveler" this time. It would be a shame if they didn't create some scandals.
Liu Ziyu asked softly, "Bai Ye, do you know Danish?"
Bai Ye didn't look at her and said something in Danish.
Liu Ziyu: "… Wow, that's amazing.
"Aren't you hot?" Bai Ye pointed in the direction of the bathroom with his chin. "There's air conditioning there."
There were cameras around, so Bai Ye couldn't say something too unpleasant. He changed his way of saying it.
But Liu Ziyu understood. What he meant was, "Aren't you hot? Why are you so close to me?"
Liu Ziyu's smile froze at the corner of her mouth. She relied on her poor acting skills to return to normal.
She had heard about Bai Ye's character, but she didn't expect him to be so rude.
At this time, Tao Tao's room was booked. She cheered and said, "Done, we can sleep now!"
"That's great." Luo Qiuman laughed at herself. "Let's go over quickly. I'm going to fall asleep standing up."
Not only Luo Qiuman, but also the guests who had been on the plane for half a day were tired.
Zhang Yunfei took Luo Qiuman's suitcase and led the way to the exit.
Qi Xingchen couldn't give the male and female leads a chance to interact. He had an idea and grabbed Tao Tao's luggage cart.
Tao Tao said, "… It's okay. My suitcase isn't heavy. I can push it myself."
"It's okay, Sister Tao Tao.
You're so thin. Let me do it. "Qi Xingchen waved his hand and was very gentlemanly.
Then, in order not to give Tao Tao a chance to change her mind, he walked away.
As he walked, the sound of footsteps got closer and closer.
He thought that Tao Tao had caught up with him and didn't think about anything else.
However, the next second, a piece of clothing was thrown onto his arm that was pushing the cart.
He looked down and saw that it was Bai Ye's dark blue denim jacket.
The footsteps continued to get closer and slowed down beside him.
Bai Ye looked forward and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "There's too much luggage. I can't carry it."
Qi Xingchen was speechless.
Didn't you only bring one suitcase?!
When they arrived at the hotel, they encountered another problem.
Usually, a suite had three rooms, one living room, and two bedrooms.
Qi Xingchen originally planned to sleep on the sofa in the living room with the extra girl in one room and the other two men in the other.
However, this hotel's suite was different. There was no living room, and there were two bedrooms, one big and one small.
The small bedroom had a double bed, and the big bedroom had two single beds.
There was also a sofa, but it was very small.
Even if the two beds were put together, it wouldn't be enough for an adult.
Tao Tao said, "Can we change rooms?"
The six of them came in two cars. Zhang Yunfei, who arrived first, shook his head. "I just asked the front desk. All the suites have been reserved."
"We've already checked out of the suite. Can we book two more standard rooms?"
"We can check out, but you'll have to pay half of the handling fee."
The price of the suite was 1,000 crowns. With half of the handling fee, 500 crowns would be gone.
"Then how about we book another standard room?" Luo Qiuman yawned.
"A standard room costs 400. The taxi just now cost 150." Tao Tao was in a difficult position. "If we book another room, we'll have to spend nearly 2,000 today …"
She didn't finish her sentence. Everyone present knew what she meant.
The travel fund had a total of 8,000 yuan. Before the first day, they had already spent 2,000 yuan.
What about the seven days of the official trip?
If they wanted to save bullets, they could only let a female guest come out and stay in the suite with the boys.
"Or …" as the female lead of this article, Tao Tao showed her responsibility at the critical moment "sister Qiuman doesn't sleep well. Zi Yu has been active recently, so they all need to rest well.
I sleep more heavily, so I'll go over. "
Luo Qiuman said, "won't it be inconvenient?"
"It's okay, sister Qiuman." Tao Tao held Luo Qiuman's arm. "I'll take a shower and remove my makeup in the side room later!"
Seeing that Tao Tao's expression didn't seem to be fake, and that this was indeed the best solution, everyone praised Tao Tao and returned to their rooms.
While all the guests were packing their luggage, the director's assistant opened a group chat to facilitate the notification of matters or the allocation of artists.
The large bedroom with two single beds was definitely for Tao Tao to stay in. The other bed had not been decided yet.
Qi Xingchen slumped on the SOFA and swiped his phone.
"Eh, Brother Yunfei." He looked at the members of the group chat and asked in surprise, "why are there so many people in the group?"
Zhang Yunfei was taking out clothes from the suitcase. "There's the director's team, as well as the guests' managers and assistants. Of course there are many."
"Assistant … will your assistant always be with you?"
"Of course." Zhang Yunfei chose his clothes and called his assistant. "Who will take care of the clothes for tomorrow's shoot?"
After a pause, he seemed to have thought of something. "Xing Xing, I see that you came alone. You didn't bring your assistant?"
Zhang Yunfei also came over at the same time. He patted him on the shoulder and didn't say anything. He took the clothes out and asked his assistant to iron them.
Qi Xingchen looked at Bai Ye, who was washing his T-shirt in the bathroom.
An A-list star like Zhang Yunfei didn't lack money or support. He was already used to being waited on.
Liu Ziyu was even worse. Today, she directly brought four assistants.
She was staying in this hotel, and her manager booked a few more rooms next door. She didn't care about the expenses at all.
Only this top celebrity, who was often rumored to be a big shot, packed his own luggage and took care of his own clothes.
… God, was his idol really not an angel???
Qi Xingchen held his cheek and blinked. He found Bai Ye's WeChat "Bo" in the group chat list.
He was as fierce as a tiger. [Your friend request has been sent. Please wait for the other party to accept.]
