After Transmigrating into a Cannon Fodder Submissive, I Became Popular by Foraging on the Beach - Chapter 19

Shen Qiu was stunned for a second, then quickly and politely interacted with the official Weibo account.

With the Beijing official Weibo taking the lead, many mainstream media quickly praised Shen Qiu’s actions, advocating attention to the issue of marine waste.

In recent years, the amount of garbage on Beijing’s beaches has increased, and many famous seaside scenic spots have now become garbage mountains.

The garbage washed up by the waves every day cannot be cleaned up by sanitation workers alone. It requires improving civic quality and reducing the use of plastic products.

The government has also been promoting garbage sorting to protect the ocean, but with minimal effect.

And Shen Qiu, simply by live-streaming sea foraging, led to hundreds of thousands of viewers tuning in!

This aligned perfectly with the government’s idea of broadening publicity channels.

These hundreds of thousands of viewers were more or less aware of the serious harm of marine waste, which was a huge propaganda success.

Not to mention the continuously rising topic click-through rate!

It had already exceeded a million clicks!

They successively surged to the top of the hot searches, making more people aware of Shen Qiu.

【My Autumn has shocked me】

【That’s the official big shot!】

【Finally! It’s rare to see a celebrity with such upright morals! This is so much better than those tainted artists involved in drugs, prostitution, and surrogacy】

Xiao Zhang rushed to Shen Qiu’s house after seeing the hot search.

He watched the development of the event with wide eyes, his gaze full of admiration for Shen Qiu: “That’s incredible!”

Suddenly, Xiao Zhang’s phone rang, and he quickly answered.

“…Mhm, yes, okay,” Xiao Zhang’s eyes lit up. “We are, of course, very willing. Thank you very much for your appreciation.”

Xiao Zhang hung up the phone and excitedly shouted in the room.

“What is it?”

“The government wants to appoint you as the Beijing Ocean Ambassador!!! They’re inviting you to take promotional photos!”

Shen Qiu was stunned.

When he finished the promotional photoshoot and the official announcements were made, his fans were even more shocked.

【OMG, the level is so high. He must be the first person to become an official ambassador, right?!!!】

【Just when I thought the official praise was enough, Shen Qiu is now collaborating with the government! How many more surprises do you have that I don’t know about?!】

【Boohoohoo, Autumn is so handsome in the promotional video. His smile melts my heart】

【A handsome young man picking up trash, hahaha. It’s oddly endearing】

With the attention from fans and the curious passersby, the government was very satisfied with the resulting publicity impact.

“Use less plastic waste, embrace the blue ocean…”

Shen Qiu said earnestly. The video was accompanied by a few comparative clips, leading to deep reflection among the viewers in the comments.

【We really need to use fewer plastic products…】

【Don’t treat the ocean as a trash can! Every time I watch sea foraging, I feel deeply moved, sigh】

Shen Qiu was very happy that he could contribute to environmental protection.

What was even more unexpected was that with the official endorsement, more passersby felt he had upright morals and casually became his fans.

“Brother Shen, you are seriously amazing!”

Xiao Zhang gave a thumbs-up: “Companies are already looking for you to be their spokesperson and shoot commercials!”

Shen Qiu wondered: “What brands?”

“Biodegradable plastic products, green disposable tableware.” Xiao Zhang looked down, his eyes lighting up. “The best one is a light luxury brand’s newly designed eco-friendly bag!”

Shen Qiu felt speechless and amused.

Other celebrities endorsed clothes and jewelry, while he was endorsing an eco-friendly bag.

He smiled: “Turn them all down. It’s inappropriate to shoot commercials by leveraging the official reputation, and we shouldn’t consume everyone’s enthusiasm for environmental protection like this.”

Xiao Zhang nodded: “Alright then. It’s also good to shoot fewer commercials.”

“Brother Shen, you should prepare yourself. The Experiencing Life grand reunion is about to start filming.”

No sooner had Xiao Zhang finished speaking than someone opened the door.

He looked up and saw Lu Yidong had returned.

Noticing Lu Yidong’s cold expression, Xiao Zhang tactfully patted his own bottom: “I’ll be going now since there’s nothing else.”

Lu Yidong asked: “Are you going to film the show again?”

Shen Qiu suddenly felt a hint of resentment in Lu Yidong’s tone.

Even though he was expressionless.

Shen Qiu felt vaguely guilty: “It’s in Beijing this time, very close.”

Lu Yidong nodded, saying nothing.

The day of departure arrived in a blink of an eye.

Shen Qiu originally planned to drive himself. When he woke up in the morning, he found Lu Yidong was also up, sitting and eating breakfast at a leisurely pace.

Shen Qiu scratched his head.

Lu Yidong’s tone was relaxed: “Eat quickly. I’ll drive you when you’re done.”

“Troubling you to drive me again?”

“It’s on the way.”

Shen Qiu didn’t know how it was “on the way.” Shen Qiu’s filming location was out of the city, and Lu Yidong’s work was in the city center.

The two exchanged a smile.

Shen Qiu quickly finished his breakfast in a few bites, got into the car, and headed to the filming location.

Lu Yidong dropped him off at the entrance: “Have fun. Call me if you have any problems.”

Shen Qiu chuckled: “Got it, got it. I really remember this time.”

The recording of the grand reunion was kept confidential, with no fans watching.

Only the four familiar older guests had arrived and were waiting in the lobby.

Shen Qiu happily greeted them.

When Wang Xiaobai clearly saw that the person who arrived was Shen Qiu, he excitedly rushed over and gave Shen Qiu a hug: “I missed you so much! It’s been over a month!”

Shen Qiu patted his shoulder, signaling him to let go quickly, as he was hugging too tightly!

The group waited in the lobby for a while longer, and three more guests arrived successively.

Everyone introduced themselves and got acquainted; none of them were difficult to get along with.

The sun gradually rose higher, and a long time passed, but the director still hadn’t started speaking.

“Is someone still missing?” Shen Qiu whispered to Wang Xiaobai.

Wang Xiaobai said: “There’s one more person. He shouldn’t be this late, logically.”

“He’s always been known for being gentle and polite, and he’s quite easy to get along with.”

Shen Qiu suddenly had an ominous premonition: “Who is it?”

“He’s an A-list celebrity, named…”

Before Wang Xiaobai could finish the name, someone suddenly stepped through the door.

Shen Qiu looked up and saw it was an acquaintance.

“…Named You Yilian.”

You Yilian hurried in, fanning himself with his hand.

He was wearing casual clothes, with meticulously styled makeup and hair, looking energetic and youthful.

“Sorry, sorry. I’m late. I got caught in traffic halfway.”

As the saying goes, one shouldn’t hit a smiling person. Although everyone was a bit impatient from waiting, You Yilian was one of the most popular guests.

So everyone nodded, indicating it was fine.

You Yilian greeted everyone.

“Shen Qiu, right? You’re very popular lately.”

Shen Qiu felt that You Yilian’s gaze landing on him was slightly subtle.

Shen Qiu sighed inwardly that enemies sure meet on a narrow road.

He knew from the original owner’s memories that the two should know each other, but their relationship was definitely not this amicable.

And You Yilian was definitely not as simple as he looked.

“It’s a pleasure to meet you. I’ve long admired your name,” Shen Qiu replied politely.

You Yilian seemed to ignore Shen Qiu’s distance and sat down in the middle of the sofa on his own accord.

While wiping his sweat, he complained: “Rushing over in this weather really made me hot and thirsty.”

“Oh, right, Shen Qiu, do you know where the drinking water is? Get me a glass, please.”

He called out his name, his eyes slightly raised as he looked at Shen Qiu.

Even the slow-witted Wang Xiaobai felt that You Yilian was acting bossy, seemingly trying to suppress Shen Qiu with his status as soon as he arrived.

You Yilian smiled innocently, as if he had just asked casually.

In the entertainment industry, naturally, the one with the higher fan popularity is the boss.

He didn’t believe Shen Qiu would dare to openly oppose him on the show.
