Chapter 199 Liying Falls into the Water
Next, the two teams were taken by the program crew to the Southern Song Imperial Street in Hangzhou, which was once the most prosperous street in Lin'an, the capital of the Southern Song Dynasty.
At this time, an area has been surrounded by a fence, serving as the venue for this session.
Because it was outdoors, the area outside the fence was filled with people from Hangzhou who came to watch the fun.
After all the Running Man members appeared, the surrounding audience burst into deafening cheers.
[Running Man] has become popular at an extremely fast speed since it was launched in October and has now become one of the most popular variety shows in China.
Many viewers who have not watched the original "Running Man" find this outdoor variety show format extremely novel.
The members of the Running Man team also became well-known to audiences across the country thanks to the popularity of this variety show.
Among them, people like Deng Chao and Bao Qiang, who are already famous and have high national popularity, have not seen much improvement.
Although baby, Zheng Kai and Chen He were already well-known in their respective fields, "Running Man" made them household names and became a huge hit.
“Deng Chao, Deng Chao!!”
"Baby, you are so beautiful!"
"Ah!! It's Gu Wei, so handsome!!"
"Zhao Liying is so cute!"
“.”
The audience around couldn't help but shout when they saw the star so close.
Although Running Man is very popular, Gu Wei and Zhao Liying's "Come On, My Love" is currently on the air and its popularity is no less than theirs.
You can see many young girls watching the scene, excitedly shouting Gu Wei's name.
This round of the game is the high jump team competition.
In the middle of the venue is a high jump bar with adjustable height, and behind it is a thick sponge mat.
Each team of 5 people jumps high in turn, and it is considered a success if the total height reaches 7 meters.
After reading the rules, everyone in the red team, which Gu Wei was in, was full of confidence.
There is no need to mention Gu Wei and Sun Yang. Although Bao Qiang is short, his physical fitness is absolutely excellent and high jump is no problem for him.
Only Chen He and Zhao Liying are a little weaker, but their heights can be adjusted a little shorter so that the other three can share more of the burden.
"I can't do that. I've always been bad at sports."
Zhao Liying said to Gu Wei beside her with some concern.
"It's okay. I'm here. I'll lower it to one meter for you. There's a springboard in front of the railing. You can just jump over it."
Gu Wei comforted her.
The competition started quickly, and the two teams first assigned the height that each person had to jump over.
Those with stronger abilities will get higher scores, and those with weaker abilities will get lower scores, as long as the total is equal to 7 meters.
In Gu Wei's team, Zhao Liying is 1 meter tall, Chen He is 1.3 meters tall, Wang Baoqiang is 1.5 meters tall, Sun Yang is 1.6 meters tall, and Gu Wei is 1.6 meters tall.
As long as everyone can complete it smoothly, it will be considered a success.
The first round of competition started soon. Because it was their first time jumping, only Gu Wei and Li Chen from the yellow team successfully jumped over the railing, while the rest failed.
Either the height is not enough, or the legs knock the horizontal bar off when flipping over.
After the first round, everyone adjusted the height they wanted to jump according to their actual abilities.
In the second round, having learned from previous experience, everyone on the red team had significantly improved their high jump skills.
Everyone successfully passed the hurdle, and when it was finally Zhao Liying's turn, she was obviously a little nervous.
Without a running start, he jumped directly from the springboard. His posture was very graceful, but unfortunately when he landed, his calf knocked off the horizontal bar and he failed.
Several people on the red team looked regretful, but when Zhao Liying got up and came back, no one said anything.
Gu Wei also encouraged:
"It's already good, just a little bit more to go. Come on, you will definitely succeed next time!"
Zhao Liying felt a little guilty because her failure caused the entire team to fail, but after hearing what Gu Wei said, she quickly adjusted her mentality.
"Yeah! I'll definitely try harder next time!"
He clenched his little fists and stretched them out in front of him, looking like he could do it.
Zhao Liying in this state perfectly fits the image of "Xue Shanshan" in her TV series.
The program crew will definitely not miss the interaction between Gu Wei and Zhao Liying. They are the most popular couple now, and this exchange will definitely be edited into the main film.
Unfortunately, the Yellow Team did not give Gu Wei and the others a chance. After the Red Team failed in the second round because of Zhao Liying, the Yellow Team, which came on later, seemed to be assisted by God. Several people jumped over their own height, and Baby, as a girl, also jumped over.
"In the second round, Team Yellow wins and wins 1000R coins."
Following the director's voice, the staff also gave Team Huang a small box of gold coins.
The second segment was recorded in the afternoon. The 10 people had a working meal provided by the program team and were then taken to the swimming pool of Zhejiang University.
This place will be the recording site for the last game session of the day.
Everyone put on the non-slip shoes provided by the program team and entered the swimming pool. They saw a huge dumbbell-shaped float above the pool.
There is a circular disk with people standing on both sides and a passage in the middle.
"In this game, the red and yellow teams stand on two discs, and then one person from each team goes to the middle and pushes and pulls until all the members of one team fall into the water. The remaining team wins."
After listening to the rules, Gu Wei suddenly noticed that Zhao Liying's expression beside him was not right.
"What's wrong, Liying?"
"I can't swim, I'm a little scared~"
"Don't be afraid, this is a swimming pool. As long as you stand normally, the water will only reach your shoulders. You won't drown."
He thought for a moment and said:
"Just stand next to me in a moment. I'll catch you the first time if there's any problem. Don't take it too seriously when you go up to compete. Just don't choke on the water and you'll be fine."
Today's final round of competition has officially begun, with a best-of-three format.
In the first round, everyone followed the program team's requirements and each team sent one person to the middle to compete.
The first to take the stage were Deng Chao and Gu Wei, the captains of the two teams respectively. They came first to set an example for others.
“It feels like ripping off a name tag.”
Gu Wei looked at Deng Chao who was walking slowly towards him, slightly lowering his body and extending his hand, and said.
"I won't lose to you this time like I did with the name tag. I'll let you see Brother Chao's true strength."
As she spoke, Deng twisted her hips towards the camera, striking a coquettish pose and throwing a wink at Gu Wei.
“Ugh~”
Gu Wei made a gesture as if he was going to vomit, then reached out and grabbed Deng Chao's arm.
"Oh my god, you won't give in to me at all!"
"If I give in to you, it means I look down on you, Brother Chao."
The two of them pushed and pulled each other a few times, but they didn't stop talking.
Deng Chao's strength is far less than Gu Wei's, but it is not easy to exert force on the float. After all, Deng Chao is also holding Gu Wei tightly. If he uses too much force, they may both fall into the water.
As the saying goes, good things don't work, bad things do. Gu Wei thought that he could control Deng Chao with his strength, but he didn't expect that after a stalemate, he seized an opportunity to push the other party into the water. Before falling into the water, Deng Chao still grabbed Gu Wei's clothes. The float was very slippery, and Gu Wei was also dragged into the water.
The two men ended in a draw.
The same thing happened to the following pairs: Chen He vs. Zheng Kai, Wang Baoqiang vs. Li Chen, and Sun Yang vs. Chen Jianzhou. They all ended with both players entering the water.
Finally, it was the final battle between Zhao Liying and baby. Originally, people thought this round would be a draw, but after a few seconds of pulling each other in the middle, she was pushed into the water by baby. Zhao Liying, who fell into the water, still held the edge of the float tightly with her hands, feeling a little nervous.
The yellow team wins the first game.
"I'm sorry, it's me who made everyone lose again."
"It's okay, Liying, come on, we still have a chance."
Gu Wei encouraged.
Hearing Gu Wei's words, Zhao Liying forced a smile.
Everyone rested for a while and soon the second game began.
Just as Gu Wei and his team were waiting to follow suit and arrange for people to move forward, Team Huang had already changed their strategy.
As soon as the game started, Zheng Kai strode over from their team's float and ran all the way to the red team's float.
He wanted to use this momentum to push people into the water.
Fortunately, the five members of the red team were all there. After Zheng Kai ran over, everyone used their collective strength to hold him down.
Then Deng Chao and Li Chen also ran over quickly like Zheng Kai and pushed people into the red team's territory. Now everyone was helpless.
They used the momentum of their running to push Baoqiang, Chen He and Zhao Liying into the water.
Even if I also go into the water, it's still 2 for 3.
Zhao Liying was originally standing at the end of the red team, but when Li Chen rushed over to push Baoqiang, he also pushed her, causing her to fall backwards into the water.
After falling into the water, Zhao Liying did not stand up like the others, but instead flapped her hands upwards, with her head bobbing in the water.
At this time, everyone, including the crew members, were paying attention to the few people on the float. The game was at its most intense and no one noticed Zhao Liying's situation.
But Gu Wei, who knew that Zhao Liying could not swim, had always been paying attention to her and glanced at her the moment she fell into the water.
Finding that she seemed to be drowning, Gu Wei didn't care about winning or losing the game and quickly jumped into the water.
Zhao Liying fell backwards into the swimming pool. Because of her posture, she grabbed a sip of water the first time.
Once a person chokes in water, he or she will immediately become panic-stricken. Zhao Liying was afraid of water to begin with, and she became even more panic-stricken at this time. Her limbs were flailing around, but she couldn't stand up normally, and she was still sinking.
After Gu Wei jumped down, he grabbed one of her arms so that she could support herself, then he put his arms around her and lifted her up so that Zhao Liying's head was above the water.
"It's okay, don't be afraid, I'm here!"
Gu Wei's rescue also gave Zhao Liying a backbone. She lay on Gu Wei's shoulder and was led by him little by little to the edge of the swimming pool.
At this time, the Running Man members who were still competing and the crew members discovered that Zhao Liying had drowned.
There was a sudden panic.
"Liying, are you okay?
Why don’t we stop recording now and go to the hospital.”
Director Lu Hao said worriedly.
He didn't expect that a guest would drown while recording a show in a swimming pool. Fortunately, Gu Wei discovered it in the first time and Zhao Liying seemed to be fine.
If anything goes wrong, he will be held responsible.
Gu Wei had already put Zhao Liying down by the swimming pool, and now all the members of the Running Man team gathered around.
"Liying, are you okay?"
Baby has a concerned expression on his face.
"I'm sorry, Liying, I didn't expect you to be so afraid of water."
Li Chen, who pushed her into the water, apologized.
"Why don't we just listen to the director and go to the hospital."
Deng Chao suggested from the side.
"It's nothing. I just fell into the water and I was a little panicked. I choked on the water, and Gu Wei immediately pulled me up."
The director confirmed with Zhao Liying several times, and then called in the medical staff who were with the crew to conduct a simple examination on Zhao Liying.
I felt relieved only after confirming that she was really okay.
The recording of Running Man will continue, and after this incident, everyone has time to rest for a while.
"Thank you, Gu Wei. If it weren't for you today, I wouldn't dare to imagine what the outcome would be.
I was really scared when I fell into the water.
When I choked on the water, I thought I was going to die."
When there were only two people left, Zhao Liying turned and whispered to Gu Wei.
"You'll be fine. Even without me, the production crew will find you soon."
Gu Wei gave her a sunny smile to comfort her.
After chatting with Zhao Liying for a few words, Gu Wei was called over by the director again.
He didn't take saving Zhao Liying seriously; it was just a piece of cake.
"When I was at my most sad, you showed up to comfort me on the set of 'My Sunshine'.
This time I was drowning and it was you who saved me.
I find that every time I encounter a bad situation, you will appear.
Even though you always tell me not to take it to heart, how can I not care?"
Zhao Liying looked at Gu Wei's figure in the distance and murmured.
