Since that day, Han Li never came to look for Chen Kong again.

Chen Kong was also happy to see it happen.

After all, keeping distance is necessary to prevent an infatuation that cannot be reciprocated from developing further.

Now he knew the time and place of the critical moment, so all he had to do was wait quietly.

As for what to do then?

Shen Kong flipped the script on his lap carelessly, his lowered eyes flashing with a pure and cold metallic luster.

——Of course, he took action before Han Li did anything.

Since the main mission is to stop Han Li from shooting those three people himself, can't you just do it for him?

Anyway, he doesn't care about these few lives.

The sun overhead was getting hotter and hotter. Even the studio couldn't stop the scorching heat from penetrating. The filming on the set was in full swing. Pei Xiuran was vigorously reading the script. All the staff on the set were nervous, fearing that they would be affected in the next second. Unlike others, Chen Kong was leisurely sitting on a lounge chair at the edge of the set, with a parasol above his head and iced watermelon beside him, slowly flipping through the next script.

Because ever since that day when he did it NG87 times in a row, he has become Pei Xiuran's new favorite.

Almost every shot was shot in one take. Even when there was a request for a retake, it was because Pei Xiuran had a new idea during the shooting process and asked for new shots or to change the camera position and start over.

And Shen Kong became the savior of the entire set.

Because as long as he had a scene that day, Pei Xiuran's mood would visibly improve. Even if he didn't have a scene, as long as Chen Kong circled around him, Pei Xiuran's face that seemed to be always sullen would seem to brighten up slightly, and the low pressure that enveloped the entire set would be slightly relieved. Chen Kong's presence, which was like a sedative, officially became the savior of the entire crew.

Because as long as he was kind enough to go to Pei Xiuran and give him a few words of advice, life would be much better for everyone in the crew.

The previously rife rumors were swept away by everyone's desire to be rescued from the huge workload. Everyone's attitude towards Shen Kong took a 180-degree turn, and he immediately became the second most unoffendable person after Pei Xiu Ran. Qi Yi, who was already frightened by the glare that day, avoided Shen Kong from then on, like a mouse seeing a cat.

Chen Kong's life in the crew during this period is really comfortable.

Just as he picked up the cold drink on the table and took a sip, his assistant rushed over from the side with a look of joy on his face:

"Brother Meng, Brother Meng! You are on the trending search again!"

Shen Kong put the cold drink back on the table and said lazily: “What’s so strange about this? Didn’t I go there every day some time ago?”

When he left Han Li's house before, he took a taxi back. After being secretly photographed, he became a hot topic, and there was another round of heated speculation. Most netizens speculated that he was finally dumped by his sponsor. They could almost write millions of words about the grudges and love-hate relationship among the wealthy just by imagining it. However, perhaps because this matter involved a higher class, it was quickly suppressed and the popularity never rose again. Netizens speculated that he might have reconciled with his sponsor, so they used resources and money to help him remove himself from the hot searches.

Chen Kong had some interest at first, but when the novelty wore off, he was too lazy to even look at it.

The assistant shook his head desperately, staring at Shen Kong with sparkling eyes, and his words were a little slurred:

"No, no, no, Brother Meng, this time is different from before!"

Shen Kong raised his eyebrows, showing some interest, and then reached out to take the phone from the assistant.

His name is currently ranked first on the trending searches.

Shen Kong was stunned for a long while, and suddenly remembered that today was Thursday - the second episode of the Wilderness Seven Days Challenge was launched yesterday.

As a recent hit variety show, "The Wilderness 7 Days Challenge" has been extremely popular online and has attracted much attention, especially last week when Meng Mingxuan was photographed taking a taxi away from a luxury residential area late at night, which made the attention to the second episode soar to the peak. Countless people were waiting to insult Meng Mingxuan passionately after this episode. Before the episode was over, the barrage was full of insults. After all, when even Ran Wan didn't even complain of being tired, Meng Mingxuan started to make trouble and sprained his ankle. The delicate girl said that she could persist, but Meng Mingxuan, such a big man, actually complained of foot pain. He was so hypocritical and unable to endure hardship. The broadcasting platform was overwhelmed by the sudden traffic and had to be urgently repaired again.

The audience who were unable to express their anger in the barrage shifted the battlefield to Weibo, and the hot searches for Meng Ming's affectation and pretentiousness gradually climbed again.

Just when everyone was cursing happily, no one expected that Ran Wan would actually speak passionately on the microphone at this time.

Not only did she post on Weibo to defend Meng Mingxuan and clarify the situation, she also attacked people online in the comment section, and responded sharply and righteously to several haters who insulted Meng Mingxuan. In the verbal battle just now, Ran Wan's fans jumped the highest and were slapped in the face the fastest. Now even some of Ran Wan's Buddhist fans couldn't help but worry about her and persuaded Ran Wan not to get involved in this mess.

Just when the pace was gradually picking up, the public's heated opinion suddenly subsided.

Because the platform maintenance is over, the second half of the Wilderness Seven Days Challenge begins to be broadcast——

Everyone watched as the shiny blade flew in front of the camera, and then Ran Wan's heart-wrenching screams were heard on the screen.

etc? ?

What just happened? ? ?

The thoughtful production crew changed the camera position, slowed down the scene, and finally gave a special close-up shot:

The sharp blade, shining with silver light, was firmly inserted into the snake's body, deeply embedded in the tree trunk. The handle was shaking slightly due to the remaining force, making a buzzing sound.

...What the hell?

Apart from these two words, no other words can fully and clearly express the complex feelings in everyone's hearts.

This word, which seemed to embody the essence of Chinese culture, flooded the minds of all the viewers who watched this scene - thus, countless "wow" began to flood the screen on Weibo, and even people who had never paid attention to variety shows were shocked by such a sudden turn, and began to ask everywhere what had happened. However...even the viewers who watched the show from beginning to end could not answer this question, because although they watched the show in its entirety, they still didn't understand what had happened! !

There is only one word that can perfectly describe the mood of everyone in front of the screen:

Oh shit! !

Because this scene was so shocking, the following content of the Wilderness Seven Day Challenge no longer attracted much attention. However, these few seconds created an astonishing sensation on the Internet. Both marketing accounts and private blogs were discussing this incredible footage crazily, and even analyzing it frame by frame.

However, since there was no camera angle to capture the scene of the knife being struck, many people believed that the program crew deliberately edited the video to whitewash Meng Mingxuan. After all, he has a backer. The purpose of the program crew releasing this video when he was in notoriety was obvious and their intention was despicable. After all, how could a star like Meng Mingxuan, who was so pretentious and squeamish that he even had to bring sunscreen and lotion when going outdoors, do something that seemed like a movie plot?

As a result, the official Weibo account of the Wilderness Seven Days Challenge responded very quickly, claiming that the video had not been edited maliciously, and even released the original uncut version of the video. Ran Wan and Zhuang Xiangyang were the first to repost it.

Ran Wanwanwan v: Everyone must pay attention to safety when going outdoors in the future, and don’t touch the branches casually. Thank you Brother Meng for saving my life [crying][selling cuteness]

igure-庄向阳v: On the scene, it’s real, no editing [kneeled][kneeled]

Immediately afterwards, several other guests reposted the message and spoke up to support Meng Mingxuan and the program team.

Some of the haters were speechless, while the voices of others rose again: Even if the video was not edited, so what? Meng Mingxuan just stabbed a poisonous snake to death with a knife. I can do the same! Everyone posted photos of themselves doing things under extreme fear that they would not be able to do in normal times, trying to prove that what Meng Mingxuan did was commonplace.

Soon after, a well-known wilderness survival blogger forwarded the video and analyzed it based on several professional points, including the angle at which the blade was inserted into the tree trunk, the position at which the snake's body was cut, and the depth at which the blade was embedded. He concluded: I don't know if fear can make a person so steady, accurate and ruthless, but if it were him, he certainly couldn't do it.

But this couldn't stop the public from complaining. Many of Meng Mingxuan's haters jumped out to accuse him of taking dirty money to make a living. For a while, the whole network was in an uproar, but there were also many people who were not very determined and secretly turned to be his fans. A group of new fans quietly poured into Meng Mingxuan's previous super topic full of insults, and began to make some strange remarks in the midst of the chaos:

"So do you think Meng Mingxuan is really good-looking? Even when everyone takes off their makeup, his skin is still white and shiny. I'm jealous."

"Even when he's being a big shot or losing his temper, he's still so good looking! dbq I'm an emotionless face lover, and I can't get angry at all with this face!"

"And she looks so cool when she throws the knives! She's pretty, handsome, sweet, and has special skills. Wow, I've become her fan."

At the same time, some of the comments deviated in a more bizarre direction:

"Meng Mingxuan and Wanwan seem to be a good couple..."

"And he told the instructor that his foot hurt only when Wanwan looked upset, but he didn't actually sprain his ankle! My god, what kind of person is this, cold on the outside but warm on the inside, arrogant and weird? And then he saved Wanwan's life, and Wanwan was the first star to stand up to defend Meng Mingxuan... It's so sweet that I fainted!"

"Wait, this can't be the truth!"

The haters who still thought that Meng Mingxuan was trying to whitewash himself through marketing and some of his fans who had turned to him for his appearance and CP started a fight online. Meng Mingxuan and the Seven Days Challenge in the Wilderness topped the hot search list for a long time. At this time, Pei Xiuran suddenly posted a picture on his personal blog. There was no text, only a single photo, which jumped onto his homepage alone.

Five minutes later, the official Weibo account of "Guiyuan Tower" reposted it.

All the actors' makeup photos were released one by one several months ago, except for Shen Guiyuan's photo, which was not included. Instead, it was a concept picture - a bloodstained black iron broken sword was inserted diagonally into the pitch-black abyss, with a scarlet torn ribbon wrapped around it. When this picture was released, it caused an unprecedented heated discussion, and countless people believed that the crew did not dare to release the makeup photos.

——But the picture Pei Xiuran posted this time left everyone speechless.

This is the makeup photo of Shen Guiyuan that has been suppressed for a long time and has never been released.

In the picture, a half-broken mask covers the half of the face hidden in the shadows. Thick and bright blood drips from the mask and slowly blends into his robe which is made of dark red and black. It seems that one can smell the strong smell of rust through the screen.

The other half of the face was exposed to the light. Her almost exquisite facial features were deeply outlined, her lips were as thin as paper, and her expression was silent and indifferent.

Only a pair of slightly narrowed eyes glanced at the camera sideways, the color of the eyes was light and almost inhuman, like the color of the eyes of animals under strong light, with a kind of pure wild hostility, exuding a shocking murderous intent that made people feel cold all over in an instant.

That kind of primitive and vigorous vitality is like a deadly beast revealing its fresh and fierce fangs, which can almost cut a person's eyes.

——It was as if Shen Guiyuan had walked out of the book and stood alive under the camera.
