Lin Xiaohao is an outdoor anchor. He is a veteran and once served as a special forces soldier. He has excellent physical fitness and has mastered a lot of knowledge about survival in the wild.
The content of his current live broadcast is about a person carrying survival equipment and going into the wilderness to survive, similar to Bear Grylls abroad, but Lin Xiaohao goes to some scenic spots, which are relatively safe and can also drive the development of tourism and earn a living.
Since the live broadcast style is more down-to-earth, the number of fans is quite large. In just half a year, the live broadcast has attracted millions of fans on the Tomorrow Online platform.
Lin Xiaohao has seen Lu Ban's movies. He thinks that Lu Ban is a very good director who can stir up people's emotions, whether it is fear or sadness.
As a special forces soldier who has returned to the city, Lin Xiaohao is very clear that in modern games, psychological warfare is very important. If one can mobilize the opponent's emotions and let the opponent imagine and fall into the trap, then he can take the initiative.
This time, Lin Xiaohao also applied to participate in Lu Ban’s real-life game.
He had never played any escape room games or script-killing games, but from the introduction, it seemed that this project was just about going to a small town, investigating a case in the town, and finding the truth.
You know, the world's attention is now on Lu Ban's new project. If you can participate in it, it will bring huge traffic no matter whether it is good or bad. For internet celebrities and anchors like them, traffic is the code to wealth.
What's more, Lu Ban even announced that he would broadcast it live worldwide!
Lin Xiaohao didn't feel anything at first, until his group of anchors started to explode.
[Fuck, global live broadcast, what is Lu Ban trying to do? ]
[I remember that the script is very important for this kind of script-killing game. If it is broadcast live, who will play it in the future? ]
[Won't the traffic of this live broadcast explode? 】
[If I can get it, I estimate that I will gain at least 2 million followers]
[Brothers, if anyone wins the lottery, I can spend 500,000 to buy this qualification]
[Don't even think about it. Lu Ban was selected in China based on their ID cards. It's ok for you to be an ordinary person, but can you fake your ID card as a host? ]
[I would like to know the logic behind this selection. Will all of them be Lu Ban's own people? Is it just for show? ]
[That makes sense. If Lu Ban wants to promote someone, just let him go in and broadcast it. Conservatively estimated, he will have 5 million fans on at least one platform.]
[Indeed, the college student last time became a top star just by chatting with the CEO of a large company. It was so cool.]
“How do you live stream this thing?”
Lin Xiaohao looked at the discussions of the anchors in the group and went to look for the video online.
Indeed, there are also those who go to the secret room to negotiate with the boss and shoot on the spot, but this certainly doesn’t seem as fun as going by yourself. Lin Xiaohao doesn’t understand why Lu Ban wants to live broadcast.
Just then, Lin Xiaohao's cell phone vibrated.
He took a look and saw that it was an unknown caller.
After answering the call, Lin Xiaohao was still wondering whether this was a store promotion or a fruit chat scam when he heard a clear female voice.
"Hello, are you Mr. Lin Xiaohao?"
“Yes, I don’t want to…”
"I am honored to inform you that you have been selected to participate in the first play event of our large-scale immersive real-life game [Glass Flower]. Do you want to give up participating?"
"???"
Lin Xiaohao once thought that he had encountered a new type of online scam.
"Wait, what did you say?"
“I am honored to inform you that you have been selected to participate in our large-scale immersion…”
"Wait a minute, I was picked?"
Lin Xiaohao asked back.
"Yes."
The other party replied.
"If you agree to participate, we will send you air tickets, relevant documents, etc. according to the address you left on the website. Please arrive in Jiangcheng before December 26th..."
She gave a bunch of notes, like it was real.
Lin Xiaohao hung up the phone, opened his work mailbox, and found that he had just received an email from Silent Media, inviting him to participate in the first performance of "Glass Flower" and marking many things that needed attention.
"Is it true?"
The number of people who signed up is conservatively estimated to be several million.
This is one in several million, and the probability is about the same as winning a small or medium lottery ticket.
Shouldn't the other party ask Lin Xiaohao to pay money as a deposit and then defraud him step by step?
He didn't say anything because Lin Xiaohao still felt that he might have been cheated.
What if he brags about it in a group or live broadcast room and turns out the other person is a liar? Wouldn’t he be so embarrassed that he would have to pay for his two-bedroom, one-living-room apartment?
It was not until the courier delivered the plane ticket and participation documents that Lin Xiaohao went to the airline's official website to check and found that the ticket was real.
“Is it really true???”
Lin Xiaohao couldn't restrain himself anymore.
He ran to the group and said something.
[Everyone, I think I got…
[You won? What did you win, mountain bike or another bottle? ]
【I won Lu Ban’s project! [Picture]】
【？ ？ ？】
[You must be kidding, why did I choose you? 】
[Your look is too fake, I will photoshop it for you right away]
[Brother, beware of new online fraud! ]
[If you win, I will wash your hair upside down on the spot]
[Fuck, what a card! ]
[Brother, I will pay you 200,000 yuan for your qualification. If you are interested, please chat with me privately.]
[Are you related to someone? How did you get picked? Are you a distant relative of Lu Ban? ]
[Go away, Lu Ban grew up in an orphanage, where did your relatives come from? ]
The group immediately exploded.
Lin Xiaohao checked online again and found that several people who were selected had already announced the incident on social platforms.
Among them are European modern art painters, high school detectives from island countries, and ordinary silly netizens.
Among those whose identities are already known, the ratio between domestic and foreign is approximately 2:1.
These people have no connection, and many of them are ordinary citizens without any prominent identities.
Lin Xiaohao seems to be the only anchor.
"What rules does Lu Ban follow for selection?"
Lin Xiaohao couldn't figure it out.
He could only pack his luggage quickly and board the plane to Jiangcheng.
On the other side, in Jiangcheng, after Lu Ban confirmed whether all the selected candidates participated, he looked at the list in his hand.
His principle for selecting participants was simple.
It was not Lu Ban who chose who would participate, but the completed script that chose its readers. All fifteen people were selected because they fit the script.
In this small town on the outskirts of Jiangcheng, these people will enter the script of "Glass Flower" and perform this drama again.
Lu Ban was just helping to send the invitations.
Global live broadcast is how Lu Ban received millions of positive reviews.
It is too difficult for participants who rely solely on the script to get tens of millions of positive reviews. Even if it is a movie, it would take hundreds of millions of box office revenue to have tens of millions of viewers.
Since the task is about a unique form of expression, there is of course no problem for Lu Ban to use live broadcast.
Now, the stage has been set and everything is ready. We just need to wait for the participants to arrive, drop them off in this town, and let the story begin.
To this end, Lu Ban also found the most professional live broadcast team, which had been responsible for the live broadcast of the Olympic Games, and set up various extension positions throughout the town.
This is not just a murder scene in a secret room, but also a large-scale reality show!
