Chapter 448: Bullying
The one who spoke was still the train driver Hong Lixin's wife. Huangshi in Hu Province was a big station, located on a major road connecting the east, west, south and north, so the number of drivers and crew members was considerable, and the family compound was quite large.
The train attendants at the station work as many days as they rest. When they are at work, their families take care of the elderly and children at home. The family members compete with each other, form cliques, and have constant small frictions, so everyone has some small thoughts in their hearts.
In comparison, Lou Faxiang, a steelworker, has a wife from the countryside, who is isolated by her urban family, while Luo Dongxiang spends every day at the training ground, and is considered half a man. Ai Zhuojia is devoted to her career, while foreign women are carefree, and the girls in the Rainbow girl group are all obsessed with their own boss.
So among the twelve guests, Mrs. Hong is considered a troublemaker.
But she represents the voice of most of Xia Hua's viewers. The viewers claim to be fair and just, and are easily led astray by the person involved, Hong Saozi, and are also a little angry that the program team is biased.
The program team and the Fang family were somewhat helpless, and they repeatedly stated the fairness of the program. But An Zhixia is the boss of the company, and the children are very smart, so this is the original sin!
An Zhixia chuckled: "Should we be discriminated against just because we are strong?
This doesn't make sense anywhere.
Our excellence is gained through hard work since childhood, it is not something that comes without work or out of thin air.
According to what Mrs. Hong said, are the top students only worthy of being recommended for admission during the college entrance examination, and cannot take the exam to prove their ability? "
"Anyway, I'm not good at talking and can't beat Teacher Xiao An," said Mrs. Hong with her neck stiff.
"I know that as the president of Tomorrow Culture Company, all of you guests are unhappy about bringing your children to participate in this program. The most important thing is that you feel that our family is blocking you from winning the grand prize, right?" She smiled faintly and glanced at everyone.
Naturally, no one would admit it and they all waved their hands. Even Mrs. Hong had an embarrassed look on her face.
They really thought so, but when such thoughts were exposed to the sun, they made people feel extremely ashamed.
"Okay, who isn't a layman?" An Zhixia continued with a smile, "Our company launched this program, in addition to openly spreading Xiahua culture and increasing people's knowledge, isn't it also based on profit?
There is nothing shameful about this. We deserve something in return for our labor and efforts.
However, our family of six did not receive any care from the program crew, which means we did not enjoy any special privileges and were standing on the same starting line with you.
We children are smart, but you are all excellent in your own ways.
This is the first season of "Speedy Xiahua" hosted by our program team. Everyone is welcome to design more fun and difficult games.
Mrs. Hong, if you think it's unfair, then tell me what is fair?"
Mrs. Hong didn't know how to answer for a moment.
Hong Lixin bumped her arm and said with a smile, "My wife can't talk, don't mind, Teacher Xiao An. The director and staff of the program must have carefully considered the rules of the game. What does she, a housewife, know?"
"Why don't I understand? You are discriminating against women!" Mrs. Hong was unhappy and confronted him directly. This is about the ownership of the grand prize. With the three grand prizes in the previous period, the final grand prize must be very tempting, at least it can catch up with a man's annual salary, right?
Hong Lixin's face was not looking good, and he whispered: "Why are you making a scene without even considering the situation? Do you think this is a family compound? The leaders are all watching us in front of the TV!"
"I, I'm fighting for fairness for us," Mrs. Hong's momentum suddenly dropped, and she whispered back, "Who knows that what she said is just right..."
"I didn't say it well. Mrs. Hong, please feel free to speak up if you have any suggestions," An Zhixia said calmly.
The people that Hong's wife usually interacted with were all housewives, who were always dealing with trivial matters, so how could they have any good suggestions? But she was unwilling to let the Fang family always be in the lead.
She racked her brains and suddenly an idea came to her. She puffed out her chest and said, "Your family has a natural advantage in playing this kind of game. We can't compete with you. But if you give us two hours as a penalty for doing an extra task, I promise I won't talk too much anymore!"
In fact, it had been two days since she started her tour of the city. She had a general understanding of the tasks, which were not too difficult. If she failed to complete them, she would only need to pay a penalty to move on to the next level.
So far, their group has not experienced any penalty time, which means they are fully capable of keeping up with the pace of the task. As long as the Fang family can fall behind by two hours, Mrs. Hong is confident that she can take the top three positions.
Not only her, but the eyes of the others also lit up after hearing this. Thinking about the prizes released by Tianshi, who wouldn't be excited?
Every minute in the show is crucial to victory, and two hours can make a big difference in the results!
The "Rainbow" girl group and the "Future" boy group looked at their bosses with some concern. Their basic salary is not low, and they also earn a lot of extra income from performing in daily life. They will not be short-sighted and focus on the immediate benefits.
The audience's minds were originally leaning towards Mrs. Hong, but after hearing this and looking at the slender, frail, and overly beautiful An Zhixia and the group of pretty and delicate children, they felt a little bit reluctant.
Isn't this obviously bullying?
On the one hand, they regained their rationality, and on the other hand, they also felt a sense of satisfaction. If An Zhixia accepted this proposal and surpassed everyone else in the end, I wonder if others would have anything to say!
When the audience was worrying and fantasizing about An Zhixia, she raised her eyebrows and nodded without hesitation, "Okay, if our family gives you two hours, you really won't question fairness anymore, right? This can happen once or twice, but not three times!"
By then, even if the guests still have objections, the audience will not agree.
"No matter what others say, I will definitely admit it!" Mrs. Hong nodded firmly.
"I support it!" Luo Dongxiang immediately continued.
The others also responded.
"Okay, but let's wait until the next step," An Zhixia nodded. "You guys are fighting for your own interests, so we can't just give them up, right? I think you can agree to this small request, right?"
Of course they agreed.
The director also said at the right time: "Mrs. Hong's suggestion is good, and it has also given our program team a lot of inspiration. In the future, we will also add reversal task cards to our segments. This means that the team in front has the right to adjust the ranking of the team behind."
This is possible, everyone nodded repeatedly. If they can reverse the team that is closely following them and become the last one, it means that their winning rate will be doubled!
