This was a task for Su Yang, and a rather significant one at that.
He wasn't entirely sure about the format of the show yet, so he was observing for the time being. Only once he understood the show's structure would he consider pursuing the female guests.
Hans continued to guide the proceedings. Sitting next to George was Bama.
Su Yang had a very poor impression of both George and Bama, even worse than his impression of Hans, though Hans was also quite unpleasant.
"Next up, we have Bama! Please introduce yourself."
Hans and Bama clearly knew each other, and they exchanged some gestures that Su Yang couldn't decipher. It was likely a private signal between them.
Upon hearing Hans, Bama stood up and said with a smile, "Hello, ladies. My name is Bama. I'm from the United States and I'm a rapper. I'm from the strongest rap club in the United States and hold the record for the highest-selling rap album in the country."
Bama's face was filled with pride as he spoke.
Su Yang listened to his introduction.
It was indeed something to be proud of.
Holding the record for the highest-selling rap album.
And Bama didn't look very old.
To achieve so much at such a young age was truly commendable.
Su Yang glanced at Bama, whose pride seemed to be overflowing.
Bama's introduction also confirmed Su Yang's initial thoughts.
When Su Yang first saw Bama, he had a feeling that Bama might be a rapper.
Rappers often had short tempers.
And someone like Bama, who had likely spent a long time in the underground scene early on, would have a particular temperament.
Su Yang figured the production team was going to great lengths for the sake of buzz.
Bama continued, "I have many hobbies. I write songs to make money, drive my million-dollar sports car around, and I also like to chase girls."
At this statement, the other male guests let out a chorus of boos.
Su Yang hadn't expected Bama to say something like chasing girls as a hobby on a dating show.
"But I only chase girls to hone my skills. My skills are excellent, and I guarantee you'll be very satisfied if you're with me."
Perhaps it was a common trait among rappers, but Bama's words were unrestrained and rather explicit.
Even Su Yang, a grown man, found it rather speechless.
And this was on a show, a dating show at that.
The show was being broadcast live globally, and he was saying these things.
Su Yang was truly taken aback.
He knew that foreign countries had much looser standards than China, but he hadn't expected them to be this explicit.
He wondered if Bama was just arrogant, or if this was the general environment abroad.
Regardless, Su Yang was utterly speechless.
International Channel
【Bama is blushing, hahaha】
【But watching him on the show, Bama is quite handsome.】
【As expected of the strongest rapper in the entire United States.】
China Channel
【Is this the overall quality of the United States then?】
【I feel like no one in the United States is normal.】
【Poor Su Yang, having to endure this show with so few normal people.】
Su Yang remained speechless internally, but outwardly, he didn't show much emotion, simply sitting there quietly without speaking.
Charlie was the same as Su Yang, though Su Yang felt Charlie was slightly uneasy.
Perhaps it was the lingering effect of George's behavior, and now with Bama acting this way, Charlie was worried Bama might say something inappropriate to Meimei.
However, Charlie didn't make any move.
Hans, after hearing Bama's words, smiled at him and said, "Brother, this is a show, and it's being broadcast globally. Tone it down a bit."
Hans's words didn't make Bama tone it down. Instead, he smiled and replied, "You understand me, brother, hahaha. I'm just that strong, so much stronger than some weaklings."
Su Yang: "..."
Even though Su Yang's name wasn't mentioned, he knew that Bama's "weakling" referred to him.
Su Yang made no move.
He just sat there quietly.
As long as they didn't explicitly name him, Su Yang wouldn't engage.
He hadn't even started on the show's mechanics, and he still had the system's tasks and China's tasks to complete. Su Yang would absolutely not fall here.
At least not within the first hour of the show.
Hans and Bama seemed like old friends, and after discussing the topic for a few minutes, Hans moved on to the next segment.
"Brother, who is your first choice for a date?" Hans asked Bama with a smile.
Hans also seemed to know Bama's preferences, as he kept glancing towards Mary while speaking.
As expected, Bama immediately turned to Mary and said, "My first choice for a date is Mary."
Bama then smiled at Mary and said, "Hi, beautiful. I really like you. We have the same skin color, and I think we'd be a great match. What do you think?"
"Bama, she already said her first choice was Su Yang," Hans told Bama.
Su Yang was once again brought up, feeling utterly speechless but managing a faint smile to ease his awkwardness.
Looking at Hans, Su Yang wished he could kill him right then and there.
Meanwhile, Mary, after hearing Bama's words, smiled at him and said, "Hey, brother, I've heard your songs."
After speaking, Mary gestured and sang a few lines of a song to Bama.
Upon hearing that Mary knew his songs and was singing them on the spot, Bama's eyes lit up as he looked at her.
He pointed at Mary and said to Hans, "Hey, brother, look! She definitely likes me!"
Mary smiled and said, "I like all of you. I like everyone here. We'll be spending three months together, so let's get to know each other better!"
Mary's meaning was clear: she wasn't particularly interested in Bama.
She was also trying to save face for Bama by saying she liked everyone.
However, Bama seemed to have a screw loose.
He looked at Mary, feeling very pleased with her words.
Looking at Mary, Bama chuckled, "You're right. We have a lot of time ahead of us. Let's wait and see."
Bama confidently pointed to himself and declared, "No matter who decides to leave with me in the end, I swear I'll make you satisfied!"
As soon as Bama finished speaking, the platform for the male guests erupted in loud laughter.
Everyone was teasing Bama.
Only Su Yang and Charlie remained expressionless.
China Channel
【Su Yang and Charlie seem like they're not even on this show...】
【I feel like Su Yang must be cursing them all in his head.】
【Maybe not? Su Yang looks very refined.】
【It's all speculation, but Su Yang's heart must be in turmoil right now.】
【These people are just too much, so much so that it's hard to even speak. And this damn host, what's going on?】
Su Yang sat there, feeling a bit bored and wanting to play with his phone.
He wasn't addicted to his phone, but today he really wanted to see the public reaction to the show's live broadcast.
The reception should be good, as Su Yang saw the director and producer chatting animatedly.
They kept looking at their phones, saying things Su Yang couldn't hear. Although their phones weren't confiscated, they weren't allowed to use them during this segment.
