Director Ma's brain was also working rapidly. It was not impossible that Shen Shiyi had a good relationship with the village chief and persuaded him to stop providing the venue.
But if he compromises, it will not be a problem if the guests don't do the tasks afterwards.
For a time, Director Ma was in a dilemma.
"Shi Yi, you see, I'm doing this for the smooth filming of the program. I don't mean to embarrass or threaten anyone. This is just a friendly discussion."
"If you say so, can we refuse?" Shen Shiyi raised his eyes and glanced at him.
Director Ma was so anxious that cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He gritted his teeth and said, "Well...how about this? As long as everyone completes the tasks, the program team will arrange some benefits and rewards, such as a week of food and accommodation in a five-star hotel, and a week-long tour of various city attractions."
The guests were instantly persuaded. Although this was a common thing for them, they were unable to achieve it on their own during the filming.
Zhong Tianba said excitedly: "Then can we not film during this period?"
"Yes, not only do we not have to film, but we can also provide mission suggestions to the other three groups."
Director Ma said with confidence that with his investor dad around, he wouldn't lose much anyway.
Seeing that everyone was beginning to be persuaded, he softened his stance again, "You should all know about variety show filming. How can it be successful without being a hot topic? It wasn't my intention to treat you that way before, it's just that netizens love watching it. I will apply to the higher-ups to increase your benefits in the future."
"Yes, if we don't shoot, it will be difficult for the production team to continue, and it will be difficult for Director Ma too."
Xu Miaomiao was instantly persuaded and spoke for Director Ma with sincere eyes.
Xu Miaomiao is like a brainwashed fool now. She's actually starting to empathize with the capitalists. This is the beginning of misfortune!
[Netizen: We don't like seeing you mistreating the guests. Thank you. Please don't make it sound so self-righteous about being stingy!]
[Good news, good news! Director Ma actually compromised with the guests! Baby Shi Yi is truly my god!]
"Shi Yi, what do you think? Or do you have any suggestions?"
Director Ma looked at Shen Shiyi ingratiatingly. This was a thorn who must not be offended.
If she was unhappy, the program crew would have no space to continue filming.
He was the only one who threatened the guests. He never thought that one day he would be threatened by the guests in return. T^T
"Well, if the welfare system is improved, it will be more convincing."
There was a faint smile on Shen Shiyi's lips, and the sunlight reflected on her bright and unrestrained face made her look even more vivid.
"Okay, okay, I'll customize it in detail when I get home tonight."
Director Ma felt his heart bleeding. He would lose a lot of money if the welfare came out.
"good."
The negotiations ended and everyone reached a consensus.
The next day
All the guests arrived at the usual gathering place on time.
Director Ma also had a piece of paper in his hand. He thought about it for several hours last night and finally designated this welfare award.
"From now on, the group with the highest score each week will be able to participate in a prize draw, which includes a week-long tour of various city attractions, a five-star hotel, and so on."
"Okay." Everyone said in unison, feeling that there was hope in completing the mission.
"Then let's begin today's mission, the forest adventure."
Guests: “?” Forest… Forest Adventure?
"The rules of the game are that the group that stays in the forest the longest wins. The staff have installed cameras and buried some food, water, tents, etc., and you need to find them on your own."
As soon as Director Ma finished speaking, he took out eight watch bands of different colors from the side.
"By the way, this watch ring has a positioning function. If you feel unwell or can't hold on any longer, press it and a staff member will come and take you away."
"Finally, I'm humane. At least I have the watch ring to ask for help and I won't die without anyone knowing in the forest."
Zhong Tianba spoke without concealing his voice, and his seemingly complimentary words sounded a little strange.
Director Ma: Is this a compliment or an insult?
Director Ma: "Don't worry, the forest has been inspected by professionals and is absolutely safe."
"Who knows if the inspectors you hired are reliable? You're so stingy."
Su Zhi's eyes almost showed the word "disbelief". Having said that, they were quite confident about this mission. It was just that they didn't like Director Ma and always wanted to challenge him.
"Could it be that even the watchband is of inferior quality? I don't think it's breaking down before we even get into the forest."
Zhong Tianba attacked again.
Director Ma: “…” He can just do it himself.
"Since it concerns everyone's safety, Director Ma should still be reliable." Xu Miaomiao selectively believed Director Ma based on the idea that people should have more trust in each other.
Director Ma suffocated: Remove the word "should" before saying this!
Amid the guests' distrust and pessimism, everyone quickly put on their watch bands and followed the staff towards the forest.
The so-called forest is just a fenced playground with a sticker showing the ticket price and height measurement at the gate.
The four groups of guests chose to separate after entering the gate together. After all, there were limited food and tents in each place.
Shen Shiyi and Xie Yunian walked along the way. The forest was quiet except for the sound of birds.
There was nothing special about the dense trees around, and it was rare for Xie Yunian to take the initiative to walk in front and lead the way.
The two walked in the sun and soon they were sweating profusely from the heat.
Xie Yunian stopped beside a pile of lush grass, then bent down and took out a large bag from underneath, which contained bread and water.
"Shishi, drink some water." He handed her the only bottle of mineral water in the bag.
"You drink, I'm not thirsty yet." Shen Shiyi's eyes fell on the other person's sunburned face. He was weak, so for the sake of the mission, he had to be taken care of more.
"You drink first. The forest is dangerous. If something unexpected happens, I'll need you to protect me."
Xie Yunian handed the water to her, his black eyes stubborn.
Shen Shiyi had no choice but to take the water, unscrewed the bottle cap, tilted his head back and poured some water into his mouth. He did not touch the bottle mouth the whole time. The cool water reduced the heat in his body a lot.
After walking all the way, my hair was wet from the heat. It would be a lie to say that I wasn't thirsty.
After Shen Shiyi drank one-third of the water, he handed the bottle back, “Drink it too, don’t get a heatstroke.”
"Okay." Xie Yunian's cracked lips curled up slightly, and his eyes fell on the mouth of the bottle and were slightly distracted.
He took two big gulps directly from the bottle and then closed it.
"Shishi, would you like some bread?"
"Not hungry yet."
"Then tell me when you're hungry."
"Um."
[Good fellow, he didn't even call her sister, but called Shi Shi directly. Xie Yunian, you have no manners!]
[But he gave the bottle of water to Shi Shi Baby first.]
Everyone, give way to the Imagination King~ Xie Yunian (feeling dark): Is it because I call you sister that you've never looked me in the eye? But I want more than just the title of younger brother.
[Sister above, please publish a book. I'll give you the pen, so you can write it. Hahaha! A good brother and sister relationship has turned into a sister-brother relationship.]
