Gathering of the Deyun Society’s Seventh Team: Guo Longyuan Takes Center Stage with Meng Hetang and Zhou Jiuliang

Who would have thought that a gathering of the Deyun Society’s Seventh Team would end up making the “host” the biggest topic of discussion? Led by Meng Hetang and Zhou Jiuliang, Guo Longyuan firmly took the center position, and a group photo sparked a flood of questions. At the dining table, the center position is not just a random seat, especially with two top-tier seniors accompanying him. Netizens looked at the photo and joked, “Has the ‘host’ of the Seventh Team changed?” Questions and curiosity flooded in.

01

Guo Longyuan’s name has always stood out in the “Long” character faction. Tall and handsome, he exudes charisma on stage, but ultimately, he is a new generation of “rising stars.” In the past, he had no significant background or special resources, and he built his career bit by bit in small theaters. Growing up in a financially struggling family, with parents busy making a living, he was raised by his grandparents and learned to read the room and understand the meaning of “contentment is happiness.”

Once, Guo Longyuan almost missed his first performance due to an injury. That day, he leaned on crutches but gritted his teeth and persevered. No one expected that this child would achieve what he has today. Some think he relies on his looks, others believe he benefits from the surname “Guo,” and some feel he is just lucky. But to be fair, it wasn’t anyone who gave him opportunities; it was he who endured and fought through.

This gathering was quite dramatic. It took place in Beijing, coinciding with the availability of the Seventh Team’s actors. Meng Hetang and Zhou Jiuliang thought, “Let’s get everyone together for some fun.” Originally, it was assumed that the leaders would naturally take the center position, but unexpectedly, Guo Longyuan plopped down right in the middle. The dining table was small, with fourteen people squeezed together.

Meng Hetang laughed and said, “Let Xiao Guo sit; he’s tall, and others really can’t fit in.” Guo Longyuan didn’t hold back and waved his hand, saying, “It’s not that I don’t understand the rules; it’s just that at this table, no one else can fit except me.” This joke lightened the atmosphere, and everyone burst into laughter. It wasn’t about him stealing the spotlight or disrespecting his seniors; it was about everyone wanting to be comfortable, and no one wanting to feel constrained.

Once the photo was posted online, it created a buzz. Some netizens directly asked, “How did Guo Longyuan end up in the center? Wasn’t the ‘host’ Qin Xiaoxian?” Many others joked, wondering if the ‘host’ of the Deyun Seventh Team should be changed.

Everyone knows that previously, during gatherings, the ‘host’ was Qin Xiaoxian. His late arrivals and fines became the budget for everyone’s team-building activities. Each time they gathered, team members lined up to shake hands with him, thanking him for his ‘contribution.’ However, since Qin Xiaoxian became busy with cross-industry ventures, the fines have decreased, and the title of ‘host’ has naturally become less significant.

It’s not that Guo Longyuan wanted to be the ‘host,’ nor has the hierarchy in the team changed; it’s about the atmosphere of the gathering and who takes the lead. Some audience members may not understand, which is not surprising. New fans may not grasp these “dining table rules.”

Guo Longyuan responded generously, saying, “It’s not that I’m trying to take the lead; it’s just a height advantage; otherwise, it really wouldn’t fit.” This statement made everyone feel that this kid is quite interesting.

As time goes by, the truth gradually emerges. The team is solid, but the actors come and go. Previously, the mainstays of the Seventh Team were always familiar faces like Meng Hetang, Zhou Jiuliang, and Qin Xiaoxian. Now, fresh faces from the Long and Xiao character factions are increasingly common.

Some seniors are busy with commercial performances, while others are crossing over into variety shows, and the small theater stage is gradually becoming the domain of the younger generation. Newcomers like Guo Longyuan and Song Longxiang have more opportunities and greater responsibilities.

The atmosphere at the Seventh Team’s gathering remains as lively as ever. However, the role of the ‘host’ is no longer a one-person affair; whoever can take care of everyone and keep the atmosphere lively is the true “backbone.”

Meng Hetang occasionally returns, still leading everyone in dancing and team-building activities. Whether or not Qin Xiaoxian returns doesn’t matter; life continues to flourish.

Some netizens said, “The small theater is solid, but the actors come and go; where there are people, there are stories.” This is true.

In fact, the center position and the host at the dining table are just “empty titles.” Whoever is popular, busy, and can step up is the one who takes the lead.

Conclusion

The story of the Seventh Team is filled with warmth amidst the excitement, and the changes reflect the legacy.

It’s not about who sits in the center position or whether the ‘host’ changes; it’s about the atmosphere and who can make everyone comfortable.

In this industry, “the rules are ironclad, but the hearts of the people are fluid.” Sometimes, making everyone comfortable and heating up the atmosphere is more important than any captain or host.

As Lao Guo often says, “What the audience likes is what is right.”

The center position and the host of the Seventh Team are just the warmth behind the excitement.

What the audience wants to see is not just the seating arrangement at the table, but the genuine friendships and warmth offstage.

So, who do you think will take the center position at the next gathering? In fact, we all understand that the main character is always the one who can uplift the atmosphere and make everyone happy.

In the world of Deyun Society, today it’s Guo Longyuan, tomorrow it could be anyone; the key is that everyone is still enjoying themselves together.
