The major industry crackdown had its effect—even the wildest celebrities didn't dare to act out.
So this episode of the variety show was filmed with perfunctory obedience, like an old man dutifully attending to his wife in the middle of the night—everyone went their separate ways the moment it was over.
Three of the regular cast members had been replaced for this episode, and Ni Bingyan was just a guest star for a single recording. The cast members barely knew each other, so after the cameras stopped rolling, they simply exchanged polite goodbyes and went their separate ways.
It was a simple truth everyone learned as a child: when the weather turns bad, you hurry home.
The industry was in a state of panic, and everyone had more or less the same idea. 'Finish the work on hand, head home to lie low, and wait for this whole thing to blow over before coming out again!'
