'Haha, no, no, don't rush this! I want to keep seeing the expressions on Alex's face!'
'His facial expression is priceless! But what's going on? Did he have a grudge against Shen Jinghe before? Why does he seem so unwilling?'
I disagree with the above view. I think his unhappiness stems purely from not being paired with Wen Yan.
"Did you guys notice? Top star Shen Jinghe is surprisingly unpopular on this show. Out of the four red ball holders, he was the last one to be chosen."
"Um... actually, you're wrong about something. He might not have been the last one selected; he might have been automatically paired up from the remaining candidates."
'Haha, is this show a black hole for us, Hehe?'
"Waaaah, has our brother lost his charm? It seems like everyone in the industry is so enthusiastic towards him on set and at award ceremonies. He's also very loyal and has a lot of connections, so what's going on?"
"Don't worry, this is actually quite normal. Red ball number 1, Xu He, is a singer, strictly speaking, not in the same field as us, there's a barrier. Number 2 is another story, and number 3, Qin Yan, is a model, so strictly speaking, not in the same circle either. Besides, they're all veterans from the first season, so they'll definitely prioritize choosing people they're familiar with."
'555 Thank you, sister, that makes me feel much better.'
'Anyway, I'm still really looking forward to this group; I feel like it'll be very interesting to watch.'
Shen Jingchuan didn't know what the audience thought, but he was very frustrated.
But there was nothing he could do; he drew the red ball number 2 himself after time was reversed.
Now, each of them is opening their large backpacks in front of the camera.
This season is different from the last. Since the teams are paired up instead of all eight people sharing all resources, the production team allows each guest to bring seven items.
Of course, not everything can be brought. When signing the contract, the production team added a supplementary appendix to the contract, which contained a list of items they would provide.
The guests only need to choose 7 items from them.
These items are: fire starter, machete or dagger, saw or wire saw, axe, shovel, fish hooks and fishing line, fishing net, sleeping bag, cookware, paracord, waterproof tarpaulin, raincoat, bow and arrow, headlamp, flashlight, compass, condoms, wire or thread, blades, scissors, table salt, disinfectant and disinfectant cotton, and a change of clothes.
Among the items chosen by each guest was a sleeping bag for warmth and a change of clothes.
The rest are a motley collection.
The comments section was practically bursting with laughter when the production team was checking Wen Yan's backpack.
Because Wen Yan's bag was the biggest in the whole place!!
'666 I swear this is the biggest bag I've ever seen in my life. Is Wen Yan sure she didn't bring a tent to the show?'
"What a huge pot! Haha, she chose a big black pot last season, and this time she brought another super big one, hahaha. I didn't see any other groups bringing pots this big. Giant Item #1!"
"Holy crap, a giant machete! How can this machete be so thick and sturdy? I'm truly impressed. Where did she buy it? Giant Thing #2!"
'No way, Xiao Yong is done for. The giant axe has arrived, the third behemoth. I'm starting to doubt whether she and Jiang Wanwan can even wield this axe.'
'And there's more, a huge wad of waterproof tarpaulin, a giant size 4!'
'Haha, this is the last one! Let's wait and see what this young lady has brought.'
"Military-grade shovel, hahaha! With this, you don't even need to carry a shovel anymore. It's multi-functional, so clever!"
Because the military shovel had too many functions, the director rejected it as soon as he saw it.
"No, we have to confiscate this. It's not fair to the other guests."
"Huh?" Wen Yan was naturally not having it. Everyone was allowed to bring a limited number of things, and confiscating one of them from her was unacceptable!
"You wrote in black and white that shovels are allowed, but you didn't say that military shovels are not allowed. Isn't a military shovel a type of shovel? Why didn't you put it on the list earlier? You only said it was not allowed after I carried it all the way here by hand!"
"This isn't fair to me either, director! You can't treat a poor little guy who's about to have to survive in the snowy mountains for 30 days like this! Don't force me to beg you."
Wen Yan's eyes and nose were red, actually from the cold, but she looked like she was about to cry in front of the director.
The director felt sorry for her, and it was true that the production team hadn't made the rules clear at the beginning, so he thought about it and said...
"Well then, the shovel will still be confiscated, but I can give you a normal shovel in return. Is that alright with you?"
"Great!" Wen Yan grabbed the director's hand. "Absolutely fantastic!"
After the entire inspection was completed, the production team also discovered a problem.
That means there was a situation where people in the same group chose the same item, for example, two people both chose fishing nets or bows and arrows.
This is equivalent to wasting an item.
While Xu He was still feeling sorry about it, Jiang Wanwan had already quickly made suggestions to the director.
She suggested that groups with duplicate items could exchange items with other groups that also have duplicate items. This would avoid waste and also meet the needs of the other group.
Ultimately, the program team adopted this suggestion.
Actually, the other guests, including Wen Yan, had also thought of this method.
However, Wen Yan had to admit that Jiang Wanwan's reaction was the fastest.
After the four groups organized their items, the director gave them a brief evaluation and interacted with the viewers in the live stream.
In order to maintain the show's popularity, the production team decided to hold an online vote for the four groups of guests.
Viewers can vote for their favorite team and choose their champion team.
This voting will continue until the end of the show, and the voting channel will be closed before the real winner is determined.
In the end, all the viewers who bet correctly will share a cash prize of one million!
Upon hearing this rule, the viewers in the live stream went wild!
Wow, watching this show not only entertains you, but you can also participate in sharing a million dollars when you see your favorite idol.
We must gather all our relatives and friends!
So some called on their friends and others analyzed the strengths of the situation.
Soon, the voting differences between the four teams became apparent.
The top choice in the online poll was Jing Hao and Xu He. Because they are a male-male duo, they had an advantage in physical strength, a good understanding between them, and brought a complete set of items, so their support rate immediately surpassed the other three groups.
The second group chosen by the vote was Shen Jingchuan and Shen Jinghe. Although the two didn't seem to have much chemistry, their contributions were complementary, making their overall performance quite complete, and they also had an advantage in physical strength.
The third group is Yin Haoyu and Qin Yan.
Without a doubt, the two-woman duo, Wen Yan and Jiang Wanwan, received the fewest votes!
Many people think those two girls can only last a week at most! Absolutely no more!!
