Afterward, Sanren tried again and finally passed the tutorial level.
The game prompted: 【Congratulations on graduating! You and your partner 'DeGang' have officially started your career as cross-talk actors.】
After clearing the level, the game displayed the theater management interface.
The interface background was an old-fashioned cross-talk theater, with elements such as folding fans and wooden tables on the stage, highlighting the traditional cultural atmosphere. Through the curtains on the walls, you could see the dynamic cityscape at night.
At the bottom of the interface, there was a scrollable management panel containing four modules: 【Box Office】, 【Apprentice Recruitment】, 【Theater】, and 【Crossover】.
The 【Box Office】 module displayed the theater's real-time box office revenue, showing the sales of different performances in the form of charts. It also had buttons such as "Promote Performances" and "Set Ticket Prices."
The 【Apprentice Recruitment】 module displayed information about candidate apprentices waiting to learn, including their skill levels and tuition contributions. It also had buttons such as "Recruit New Apprentices," "Improve Apprentice Skills," and "Dismiss Apprentices."
The 【Theater】 module allowed you to view the theater's economic situation, including statistical data such as total income, expenses, and net profit.
At the same time, you could decorate the theater stage and add more interactive props, such as folding fans, chairs, and writing sets.
The 【Crossover】 module displayed cooperation opportunities with other industries, such as cooperation with radio stations and TV stations, as well as participation in variety shows. It had buttons such as "Variety Show Announcements" and "Choose Crossover Marketing."
Some buttons were not yet unlocked, such as expanding to other cities, as well as national and global tours.
Seeing this, the audience in the live broadcast room exclaimed:
"Wow, I initially thought it was just a small game simulating cross-talk, but the career mode is so rich! It's much more complex and interesting than I imagined!"
"Indeed, being both an actor and a manager is awesome! Old cross-talk fans are ecstatic!"
"No matter what game I play, I love the decoration function! With such a large theater, I can decorate it according to my own preferences. It's so satisfying!"
"Can you even expand outwards? It's simply a perfect simulation of Deyun She's rise! Playing it must be addictive! I'm not saying anymore, brothers, I'm going to place an order first."
However, at this time, a sharp-eyed audience member pointed out:
"主播主播 (Zhūbō zhǔbō - Host, host), look, isn't there a button in the upper right corner of the screen?"
Sanren took a look,
Sure enough!
There was a girl's pleated skirt icon in the upper right corner of the screen, with the word 【Collection】 written in pink font.
"What's this?"
Sanren touched the button, and the game popped up a prompt:
【This function will be unlocked when you collect the first item of clothing from a young female audience member.】
Sanren was dumbfounded: "Why do I need to collect girls' clothes?"
The viewers in the live broadcast were guessing about this function, but no one could figure out what it was for.
Sanren named his cross-talk troupe 【Xiaoyao She】 and said goodbye to everyone before ending the broadcast.
……
The next evening at 7 p.m., Sanren hadn't started the broadcast yet, but over 1.2 million people had already gathered in the live broadcast room.
After Sanren started the broadcast, he continued with Xiaoyao She's next public performance to expand its influence.
DeGang: "Thank you everyone for continuing to support us today. The two of us will perform a segment for you."
Sanren Teacher: "It's our turn."
DeGang: "If I were to say, most of us cross-talk performers love cleanliness."
Sanren Teacher: "What do you mean by that?"
DeGang: "The Sanren Teacher next to me also loves cleanliness. His whole family is like that."
Sanren Teacher: "That's not wrong."
DeGang: "His father gets up every morning and has to soak his feet in a basin of water first."
Sanren Teacher: "Soak his feet first thing in the morning?"
DeGang: "Because he forgot last night."
Sanren Teacher: "Goodness, do I need to set an alarm for him?"
The audience burst into laughter, with many people laughing so hard they were doubled over!
【5 Combo!】
【Audience Mood +30】
Sanren: "This time I finally know how to play. Just follow the teaser's lead."
Live broadcast comments:
"Holy crap! I saw a girl sitting in the front row. Her clothes' buttons burst off again from laughing, like bullets, biu!"
"Where, where? Let me see..."
"I saw it this time too. This girl is quite fair-skinned, and her figure is also good. It's just that her clothes seem to have a mind of their own, and they're about to fly off."
Many viewers in the live broadcast room could now clearly see that there were many beautiful women sitting in the front row of the theater!
DeGang: "After the old man soaks his feet, he uses the water to wash his face."
Sanren Teacher: "Isn't that dirty?"
DeGang: "After washing his face, he uses a mouthwash cup to rinse his mouth?"
Sanren Teacher: "He does everything backward."
DeGang: "After he finishes, he's completely awake. That's what I call being particular about hygiene."
Sanren Teacher: "You call that being hygienic?"
DeGang: "So, we cross-talk performers can't do without the support of family and friends."
Sanren Teacher: "That's right."
DeGang: "In my heart, your father is the best old man in the world."
Sanren Teacher: "No doubt about it."
DeGang: "Sanren Teacher's father believes in Buddhism. He always wears a bag of Tieguanyin tea on his chest."
Sanren: "My dad believes in Buddhism. What's he doing with a bag of tea?"
"Hahahahahahaha!"
The audience burst into laughter, with some viewers laughing so hard they were crying.
【10 Combo!】
【Achievement Unlocked: Combo Master!】
One girl was laughing so hard that she was almost out of breath,
Suddenly!
Because she exerted too much force, the pink jacket she was wearing flew onto the stage.
Sanren picked up the jacket.
Because of the VR headset's taste simulation, he could still smell the lingering fragrance on the clothes.
【Congratulations, you have obtained a new collection: 'Girl's Pink Gauze Shirt'】
【Rarity: R Rank】
【Function: Extra +3% box office revenue for each performance】
At the same time, the game popped up a tutorial for 【Collection】.
【Every time you make the girls in the audience laugh, they have a chance to drop the clothes they are wearing】
【After adding the clothes to your personal collection, they can provide various buff effects or special functions】
【Girl's clothing has rarity, which are R, SR, SSR, UR (Super Rare), MR (Million Rare)】
【The higher the rarity of the clothing, the better the bonus effect, and it will be accompanied by skills】
【When players are performing cross-talk, the higher the combo they achieve, the more likely it is to drop the clothes of the audience】
【Conversely, if the combo is broken or the mood value is deducted too quickly, the audience will feel bored and tighten their clothes】
【If a performance achieves multiple high combos and reaches a climax of laughter, dropping all the clothes on the same target will trigger a special welfare event】
The live broadcast comments were shocked!
"What the heck? You can play like this?"
"Now I have to start my own cross-talk career."
"I'm going to fight now!"
"Ahem, I was wrong to criticize this game before. It's so good!"
The performance continued.
DeGang: "The children around here all get along well with your father."
Sanren Teacher: "That's called being well-loved."
DeGang: "Sometimes when the old man calls, no matter how busy Sanren Teacher is, he pulls up his pants and leaves."
Sanren Teacher: "Why am I pulling up my pants?"
DeGang: "Sometimes his father gets a whim and wants to write calligraphy. He quickly pulls up his pants and goes."
Audience: "Hahahahahaha!"
【Option 1: Don't always mention these pants.】
【Option 2: Am I always dragging these pants?】
【Option 3: I definitely can't pull them up.】
Sanren Teacher: "I definitely can't pull them up."
The audience suddenly booed, and the combo was immediately broken.
After the combo was broken, the girls in the audience indeed tightened their clothes again.
Live broadcast comments:
"Holy crap, what a big loss!"
"Yeah, I was admiring the figure of a girl in the audience. Her buttons had already burst."
"Keep going, Sanren Teacher!"
Sanren asked in confusion: "Did I choose the wrong option? Aren't I still supporting him?"
The live broadcast comments reminded him: "Now that the emotions are in place, shouldn't you start retorting?"
DeGang: "Sanren Teacher's father prepares a large calligraphy brush, carries a bucket, and dips it in water to write on the street."
Sanren Teacher: "I've never heard of doing that."
DeGang: "The old man leads Sanren Teacher to the square, puts the bucket on the ground, and takes off his coat first."
Sanren Teacher: "What's up, are we going for a swim or something?"
Audience: "Hahahahahaha!"
DeGang: "The two of them each take a brush, and Sanren Teacher asks: What are we writing?"
Sanren Teacher: "This matter really has to listen to my dad."
DeGang: "The rolling Yangtze River flows eastward, the waves wash away the heroes."
Sanren Teacher: "That's from Romance of the Three Kingdoms."
DeGang: "The old man said, if we can't finish practicing in one day, let's practice two characters every day. Let's start with 'rolling' first, okay?"
Sanren Teacher: "Let's write these two first."
DeGang: "So, the two of them lowered their heads in the square: Rolling, rolling, rolling, rolling, rolling..."
After this punchline was delivered, the applause from the audience reached a new climax.
The audience laughed so hard they were doubled over: "Hahahahahaha!"
Three more audience members' clothes buttons burst off from laughing, and clothing and accessories flew onto the stage—
【Sweet Hairband (R)】
Description: A sweet-looking hairband with a faint fragrance of a girl.
Effect: The wear and tear speed of theater facilities is reduced by -3%】
【Rainbow Belt (SR)】

【Valentino's Newest Season High Heels (SSR)】

Live broadcast comments: "Holy crap, it feels like playing a card game. The female audience members below are all walking gashapon machines in my eyes, hahaha!"
The newest novels are first released on 69shu.com!
Sanren Teacher continued to support: "You're being unreasonable."
DeGang: "The two of them wrote for a long time and attracted the police: Who are you two scolding?"
Sanren Teacher: "Hey, they thought we were cursing in the street."
DeGang: "So, life is not easy."
Sanren Teacher: "That's right."
DeGang: "I think life is actually a book."
Sanren Teacher: "Your book must be 'Jin Ping Mei'."
DeGang: "My life will probably end up being a cross-talk encyclopedia."
Sanren Teacher: "There's not a single word in it."
This retort directly broke the combo and deducted 30 mood points!
Sanren exclaimed: "Oh dear, oh dear, you can't keep retorting, you have to support him."
The live broadcast comments also sighed: "Learning cross-talk is indeed not easy."
DeGang: "The person next to me will end up being a Japanese adult film database."
Sanren Teacher: "Why do I have this hobby!"
With the laughter of the audience, today's performance ended smoothly.
The game popped up the box office and settlement interface.
【Audience This Show +895】
【Box Office Revenue +120985】
【Xiaoyao She Fans +366】
【Obtained Clothing: 4 pieces】
【Overall Rating C】
Sanren Teacher: "I understand. The Taoyuan Township game is saying that you can't completely retort to the top, and you can't always follow along. And it has reaction time limits. This is a bit difficult for me.
It's okay, audience friends, let's continue tomorrow.
Tonight, I'm going to review these classic segments by Guo Teacher and Yu Qian Teacher. There's definitely no problem."
The live broadcast comments were also seriously discussing:
"The main thing is to listen to more cross-talk and master the rhythm."
"Cross-talk supporting roles are about saying what's in the audience's minds."
"You can retort as a supporting role, but you can't have a destructive impact on what the teaser says later. You have to let him continue smoothly."
"I went, Taoyuan Township this game has something. It integrates the latest intelligent language system large model?"
……
After the live broadcast that day, discussions about this game were overwhelming on major game forums.
Compared to the disappointment before the release, now the entire forum is filled with "so good" voices:
"Like Sanren Teacher, I played the supporting role, so satisfying!"
"The jokes in the game are too wonderful. Several times the supporting role could make myself laugh, not losing at all to real cross-talk performances. This is truly a paradise for cross-talk enthusiasts!"
"So you can see that the supporting role is really exquisite. People say 'three parts teasing, seven parts supporting,' this is true."
"The setting of the business model is also very deep. Today I studied it and found that the allocation of resources and the recruitment of apprentices are quite particular."
"I like this game's brain hole. You can actually drop clothes by making the audience laugh, and different clothes have different bonus effects. Taoyuan Township is awesome!"
Of course, on many forums, there are also many players who specialize in sharing various high-efficiency clothing dropping strategies:
《The Causal Relationship Between Performance Rhythm and Clothing Dropping Efficiency》
《Introduction to Theater Decoration: How to Make Beautiful Audience Members Sit in the Front Row as Much as Possible?》
《Sharing Several Female Audience Members Who Are Easy to Drop High-Quality Clothes (Continuously Updated)》
《Must-See for Newbies! Practicality Rhythm Chart of Clothing That Can Be Obtained Currently (Continuously Updated)》
《Opening a thread to explore how to concentrate resources to achieve the same goal and achieve welfare events (updated daily)》
《Taking a 3-hour performance as an example, studying the benefits of combo hits and clothing breaks from the perspective of probability theory and mathematical statistics》
A player complained: "Goodness, this can be studied as an academic subject? Selling this game for 95 is a loss for them."
Amidst the various hype, the game's sales began to climb.
First-day sales: 1.2 million copies!
Second-day sales: 1.6 million copies!
For a small-scale game, this is already a considerable achievement.
……
On the third day of the game's release, Sanren's livestream continued, and the audience popularity continued to rise,
reaching 3 million!
Before Sanren even started broadcasting, the viewers in the livestream room were hotly discussing:
"Are you guys here to listen to crosstalk or to watch the female audience's clothes explode?"
"Can't we have both?"
"Hahahaha, you're all so honest."
After Sanren started broadcasting, he slightly tidied up the theater interface and equipped all the clothes that had been exploded before in the collection cabinet.
"Let's challenge the new theater box office record today! And strive to get a few new costumes!"
DeGang: "It's our turn to talk again today, the audience is packed."
Teacher San: "There are indeed a lot of people."
DeGang: "Many people also asked me if it's difficult to perform crosstalk at our Xiaoyao Society."
Teacher San: "Everyone is interested."
DeGang: "Everyone, there's no such thing as simplicity in the world."
DeGang: "Difficulty doesn't matter, find a way to overcome it. As the old saying goes, 'Nothing in the world is difficult for one who sets his mind to it.'"
Teacher San: "Everything is difficult?"
Audience: "Hahahahaha!"
Many viewers in the chat reminded: "Anchor, anchor, the audience's clothes buttons are starting to pop again."
DeGang: "Actually, if I were to perform crosstalk with someone else, I wouldn't be able to let go so easily."
Teacher San: "How so?"
DeGang: "Being with Teacher San, it's very reassuring. Our two families have been friends for generations, a father-to-father kind of relationship."
[Option 1: You're like my own son.]
[Option 2: Yes.]
Sanren chose option one, the audience's mood decreased by 25, boos filled the air, and someone threw an egg at the stage.
Sanren: "That doesn't work either, isn't roasting him supposed to be funny?"
Chat:
"Hahahaha, the lead comedian was just getting into it, and you interrupted him."
"It feels like the lead comedian usually starts with a lot of firepower, and the supporting comedian belongs to defensive counterattack."
DeGang: "His dad was good with my dad, his dad couldn't see my dad for a day, so he would go to our house and call my dad."
Teacher San: "What do you mean by 'call your dad'?"
Audience: "Hahahahaha!"
DeGang: "That's not what I meant, you see, you have a son, and I have a son. If my son can't see your son for a day, he'll go to your house and call your son."
Teacher San: "What nonsense are you talking about!"
The applause from the audience reached a new height, and at the same time, the sound of buttons popping off echoed from the stage again.
Livestream chat: "Oh oh oh oh oh, Teacher San played well, first time supporting and brought out a climax of applause!"
DeGang: "Actually, we're childhood friends."
Teacher San: "Grew up playing together?"
DeGang: "He's a French kid."
Teacher San: "Never heard of it!"
DeGang: "Over the years, he has never abandoned me, but I can't compare to him, his family is rich."
Teacher San: "Why are you bringing up money again?"
DeGang: "The suit I wear is made of plastic, and the hat I wear is made of linoleum."
Teacher San: "Goodness, it's really rainproof."
Not only did the audience burst into laughter, but the livestream viewers also completely couldn't hold back:
"Hahahahaha!"
"Teacher San's support is pretty good."
"Coupled with the actions, it's indeed the Tianjin people's bloodline talent."
DeGang: "I can't compare to Teacher San, his underwear is made of mink."
Teacher San: "Goodness."
DeGang: "His pee is over forty degrees."
"Hahahahaha!"
The theater audience was already laughing so hard they were bending over, the laughter reached a new climax!
Many colorful clothes began to fly towards the stage from all directions.
Several beauties in the front row of the audience, watching themselves getting more and more scantily clad,
The female audience member on the far left, her cherry lips slightly open, a hint of shyness and helplessness flashing in her beautiful eyes, her originally charming cheeks tinged with a faint blush.
The one next to her, the moment her coat was exploded off, her pupils slightly contracted, her expression shy, her hand gently covering the corner of her mouth, making her even more charming and cute.
The audience member whose high heels were exploded off, her beautiful legs were fully exposed, her arms shyly hugging her fragrant shoulders.
"Oh oh oh oh oh oh!" Many horny guys stared straight at them.
Moreover, they discovered that,
this time, Sanren drew two SSRs at once!
