That makes sense.
We've finally won, we should celebrate properly.
So Jia Ling and Song Yaxuan joined the cheering crowd.
Jing Tian, Zhong Chuxi, Tang Yan, Wu Xuanyi, and Yang Chaoyue looked completely bewildered.
What's going on here?
Did the Ace Family win the game?
With two wins out of three, they have already won the match.
Is this the spirit of Ah Q?
"I was depressed all night, and I finally won a game. I really should let off some steam."
"They weren't completely defeated; the Ace Family still has a shred of dignity left."
"They really have to find joy in hardship."
Viewers admire the attitude of the Ace Family.
Even if you lose the game, you should still be happy and cheerful.
"They really brought us a lot of joy."
"Even in the face of adversity, they still face life with a smile."
"I've drunk this bowl of chicken soup for the soul."
"I hope this situation can continue."
"As long as you don't fall, you haven't lost."
"The strongest is the cockroach that can't be killed."
Shen Tao only saw the pain in the hearts of the Ace Family.
Unable to cry, they could only find joy in their suffering.
"To be honest, I feel really sorry for them."
"Unfortunately, they were very unlucky."
"The guest team won a few rounds by luck."
"There's no way to turn things around."
The production team also admired Shen Teng's optimistic attitude.
It's precisely because of its positive and uplifting nature that it brings so much joy to people, right?
"This family can't live without Mr. Shizutō!"
"Without Professor Chen Teng, half the fun is gone!"
"The ratings for 'Ace vs Ace' might plummet!"
Jiang Chen admired the optimistic attitude of the Ace Family.
As long as everyone has fun, that's all that matters.
Winning or losing doesn't matter.
...
After stepping off the stage to rest and change clothes.
The final round of the competition begins tonight.
The last game was "Guess the Song Title from the Intro".
Teams that lose points will face ultimate punishment.
The ultimate punishment is to pour squid ink on them.
Seeing that everyone had a bucket of black liquid on their heads, Guan Xiaotong got goosebumps and felt extremely disgusted.
"What's this?"
"Could it be ink?"
"Is the ink poisonous?"
What if I accidentally inhale it?
"And the ink is very difficult to clean; isn't this just trying to kill us?"
Tang Yan, Jing Tian, Yang Chaoyue, Wu Xuanyi, and Zhong Chuxi were also terrified.
They had never seen such punishment before.
That's terrifying.
If we lose the game, I'll definitely be the most embarrassed person tonight.
"To be honest, we are idol stars and we cannot accept this punishment."
"How can I face people with my image ruined?"
"The embarrassing moments you make on variety shows will stay with you for life."
"Please, production team, let us go."
"We don't want to see ourselves make a fool of ourselves."
Chen Teng, Sha Yi, Song Yaxuan, Hua Hua, and Jia Ling were speechless.
The production team went a bit too far this time.
Previously, the punishment was always to pour water on the victim.
Now we'll just switch to ink.
This can really leave a psychological scar on celebrities.
Especially those celebrities who pay attention to their appearance.
"I finally understand what the ultimate punishment that Shen Tao was talking about is."
"Inviting us to a lavish dinner is simply not enough to heal the wounds we have suffered."
"If it's ink, I feel this punishment tool won't last long."
"Even if celebrities don't complain, their fans will still speak out on their behalf."
"When Zhejiang TV is smeared, they will be the ones who get hurt."
There was a bucket of black ink at each location.
Viewers also felt that "Ace vs Ace" had gone a bit too far this time.
Celebrities are very concerned about their image.
Especially female celebrities and young male celebrities.
If Zhejiang TV were to harm the idols of its many fans, its complaint hotline would be overwhelmed with calls.
"Why do these kinds of punishment tools exist?"
"Was it specially made for Jiang Chen's arrival?"
"If we can make Jiang Chen look ridiculous, that would be a good thing, and it would be very interesting to watch."
"But Jiang Chen is so strong, does the Ace Family have any chance of winning?"
"If the Ace Family keeps losing, isn't this punishment item designed specifically for them?"
"What on earth is the production team doing?"
"They're resorting to any means necessary to boost ratings?"
Shen Tao also felt that this punishment tool was cruel.
However, for the sake of the show's effect.
For ratings.
To increase the laughs.
Changes can only be made to the existing system.
The directing team didn't feel much psychological pressure.
The black liquid is not ink, but squid ink.
Squid ink is not poisonous.
It's also easy to wash off if it gets on your body.
There will be no danger to the guests.
When the rain falls, it can ruin a celebrity's handsome image.
Jiang Chen also knew that it was squid ink, not ink.
As the host of the stage, he was to introduce to everyone what this black liquid actually was.
"hello!"
"Welcome back to 'Ace vs Ace,' exclusively sponsored by Junlebao Youcui Organic Milk Powder!"
"I am Jiang Chen, the host for tonight!"
"I believe everyone has seen that black liquid."
"I'd like to ask everyone, what do you think that black liquid is?"
Chen Teng: "Isn't it ink?"
Jiang Chen: "I can tell you definitively, it's not ink."
Upon hearing this, Guan Xiaotong, Tang Yan, Jing Tian, Yang Chaoyue, and Wu Xuanyi breathed a sigh of relief.
