The next segment tested the contestants' spatial imagination. Qin Ze did not take part this time. The host would not let him take part again, either. Showing Off in Public had to be done in moderation; too often, and he would become Chen Duxiu.
Standing out alone.
The contestants' brilliance would all be eclipsed by him. What would be the point of filming the show then?
It had to be said that the genius contestants really were smart. Faced with difficult assessment questions, they handled them with ease.
It was the same brain—some people had water in theirs, some had shit, and some had wisdom.
After filming ended, the host chatted up Qin Ze backstage and asked whether he would have time for the next episode.
Qin Ze thought about it. True Yellow Biography had been filming for over two months and would probably need another month to wrap up. The four-month schedule meant the new movie was still far from release, so there was no need to worry about that for now. There was nothing at the company that required his attention, but there might be more matters at Dongfeng lately, and he might not have the time.
"I might not be available for the next episode, but I should be free at the end of the month," Qin Ze said.
"Alright, we'll get in touch then," the host said disappointedly.
It was impossible to invite a celebrity of Qin Ze's status to become a regular guest. The man made piles of money every minute. They had already agreed during earlier discussions that he would only appear for one episode. Seeing how effective this episode had been, the director had asked the host to sound him out. If there was a chance, he would come forward to negotiate himself.
