"Deducting ten points is too much, isn't it, director? I feel like you're deliberately targeting our three groups for not buying equipment!" Cen Jing's resentment was like that of a ghost who died unjustly ten years ago. The most important thing was that she didn't exchange for dry food, didn't eat breakfast, and would continue to be hungry at noon. What a rubbish variety show! She even wanted to boycott the recording.
The director said calmly, "That's not pleasant to hear. I'm not targeting anyone. You may not have equipment, but you do have points. Life is like that. There are gains and losses. Since you've made a choice, you should accept the consequences."
"Director, what if we are not afraid of the cold? In the current climate, we can survive a night even in the jungle, right?" Yan Xunyi tried to find loopholes in the director's rules.
Yan Muhuai always managed to leave the director speechless, so he wanted to try it too.
"Really? Even in May, the jungle is wet and cold at night, and there are snakes, insects, rats and ants. Can you really lie down and sleep in such an environment?" The director imagined the scene himself, but he couldn't do it, let alone these delicate artists in front of him.
When Yan Xunyi heard the director ask this, his confident expression froze.
To be honest, he can't do it.
When the two of them were in a stalemate, Yan Muhuai clapped his hands from behind and said, "Comrades, listen to me!"
The director knew he was going to cause trouble again when he saw his attitude, so he quickly stopped him, "Stop talking and wait for your roasted leg of lamb!"
"Director, please don't say anything. Let Brother Huai speak." Jin Yu ran to the front of the table and used his small body to block the director's view of Yan Muhuai.
director:"……"
Is he too unintimidating as a director?
Yan Muhuai gave Jin Yu an admiring look and said to everyone, "I'm renting out two sleeping bags and a tent space. A sleeping bag is three points, and a tent space is two points. Is there anything I need?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Qiu Yiming immediately said, "Me! Brother Huai, I need a tent spot and a sleeping bag!"
This way he only needs to spend five points to spend a night, which is very cost-effective.
"Okay, there is still a sleeping bag available for rent. Director, please make a note of it for me." Yan Muhuai's main character is a murderous one that breaks people's heart.
The director stood up anxiously, pointed at Yan Muhuai and said, "You only have two sleeping bags and a tent, and you rented them to others. Don't you need to sleep yourself?"
Yan Muhuai raised his hands and gestured to the director as he spoke. "I can find a vine in the jungle, tie it to two trees, and sleep on it like Xiaolongnu. Do you understand what I mean?"
"Haha! Why don't you tell me that you have a portable space that you can go into to rest at any time?" The director sneered.
Yan Muhuai asked, "Can I have it?"
"No! Don't try to take advantage of such unrealistic loopholes. We are simulating jungle life, not fantasy life!" The director almost broke his voice.
"Alright, since nonsense can't convince you, I'll start with the actual situation." Yan Muhuai gave the director a serious analysis: "Our tent can accommodate two people in sleeping bags, right? Then we don't need sleeping bags, the space will be slightly larger, and it's completely fine to squeeze in one more person. We can rent out the extra sleeping bags to others. Isn't that reasonable? Why bother with so many things when you're away from home? We're in the jungle for survival, not a picnic."
The director was stunned by what he said, but he actually thought it made sense?
"It seems that the director has agreed. Let me say it one last time. I have a tent here. Who wants to rent it?" Yan Muhuai shouted again.
Seeing that the director didn't object, Cen Jing immediately ran over to Jin Yu and took her hand in a pretentiously intimate manner. "Jin Yu, are your tents and sleeping bags rented out? I want a tent spot and a sleeping bag. I'll transfer five points to you right away!"
"Huh?" Jin Yu didn't even understand what was said and just lay there to get points.
Seeing that the situation was completely out of control, the director could only sit back with a haggard look on his face, and in an instant he seemed to have aged ten years.
"Director, cheer up. Don't we still have tomorrow's segment? They won't be happy for long." The assistant stepped forward to persuade him and handed the director his vibrating cell phone. The words "Assistant Ming" were jumping on the screen.
The director stopped interfering, and everyone started trading openly.
The groups of Qiu Yiming and Cen Jing reacted faster and each moved to a different tent location. They only needed to transfer five points, so Qiu Yiming and Yan Muhuai squeezed into one tent and gave the sleeping bag to their teammate Peng Ying; on Cen Jing's side, she squeezed into the tent and gave the sleeping bag to her teammate Liu Qiao.
All that was left for Yan Xunyi and Qin Shulang were the only remaining sleeping bags from the two teams.
However, Yan Xunyi's group currently has the fewest points, and if they continue to deduct points, they will reach the bottom.
"Jin Yu, can I exchange half of my pork belly for a sleeping bag with you? I remember you only exchanged for one day's food. If you have the pork belly, you won't have points deducted tomorrow. And you have a fire stick, so you can do the same as Mu Huai and the others. Let the director prepare grilled pork belly for you now, and save the dry food for tomorrow." Yan Xunyi discussed with Jin Yu.
Jin Yu's mind was confused and he couldn't think, so he turned around and looked at Zi Yan beside him.
Zi Yan thought about it and added a condition, "I remember you have two apples, right? If you add one apple, we can exchange them."
Yan Xunyi didn't expect that Zi Yan had no idea about the ways of the world. He was already giving them face by exchanging half of his pork belly for sleeping bags, but she actually wanted to bargain!
"You don't have a fire stick, so you may have to borrow one from us tomorrow," Zi Yan reminded.
Yan Xunyi had to admit that Zi Yan was much smarter than Jin Yu and could not be fooled at all.
