Chapter 867 - 867 Overwhelming Beauty
867 Overwhelming Beauty
“Why are there so many celebrities on this show? This is really annoying,” Li Jiani said with a frown.
“I think the production team is doing this for the sake of ratings,” Huang Yunhang said.
“Even if this show has partnered up with the television stations of so many countries to create such a huge event, the core premise should still be focused on wilderness survival.”
Li Jiani nodded. “Still, if these celebrities end up becoming mainstream, the media outlets from other countries won’t be happy.”
“Aiya, don’t say that,” Li Jiale said. “After the recording starts, you have to help our Li Xingchen and get me an autograph.”
Li Jiani rolled her eyes at her sister. “A person like him is a burden. They’re useless in the show. Stop dreaming and head back quickly.”
“Hmphh.” Li Jiale said, “Even if I’m hopeless, please help me get an autograph.”
Li Jiani rolled her eyes and ignored her infatuated sister. She then walked towards the deck with Lin Yi.
During this process, Lin Yi remembered who the person called Li Chenxing was.
Previously, when he was doing a live stream, he was the person Douyu had found for him.
To think that they had actually met here. It could be said that enemies were bound to meet on a narrow road.
Soon, the three of them arrived on the ship.
Lin Yi realized that there were a lot more people here than below.
Everyone was also dressed professionally. The people below could almost be described as rabble compared to the people standing on the deck.
However, just like below, other than the production team staff, these contestants who seemed to be at a higher level also chose to form a team.
There were only two or three people in the small teams, just like on his side.
The larger teams had more than ten people, and their formation was quite imposing.
After watching for a while, Lin Yi realized that there seemed to be people like him, who were not outstanding in appearance, in every small team.
However, from their communication, it became clear that these people were still highly respected as they kept talking non-stop.
After listening to a few sentences, he realized that these people were all so-called wilderness survival experts. They played the same role as him in the team.
Other than that, what surprised Lin Yi was that other than these so-called professional players, there was a small group of people who were scattered in every corner of the deck, looking out of place compared to the others. Their skin was soft and tender, like a woman’s.
As expected, these people should be celebrities like Li Chenxing who came here to freeload.
After all, this was an international program. With such huge traffic, everyone wanted to freeload.
Whoever manages to join in would like the Eight Immortals crossing the sea, with each being able to showcase their own special abilities.
“There are actually so many celebrities here. This is really something,” Huang Yunhang said.
“There’s no need to bother with them. Just do our job,” Li Jiani said calmly.
It was obvious that she really did not like these popular celebrities in front of her.
During this process, Lin Yi didn’t say anything.
He kept sizing up Li Jiani and Huang Yunhang.
He felt that these two people were a little abnormal.
It wasn’t that they were mentally unstable. It was just that their motives were a little hard to figure out.
Judging from the way they were dressed, it was obvious that their family background was not bad.
Moreover, they were not from any ordinary well-off family.
At the very least, it should have reached the level of the Qu family in Yangcheng.
Although the reward of five million dollars was very tempting, people from such a family would not usually take the risk to participate in such a program.
Moreover, from their words and actions, he could tell that the two of them were quite skilled. They were at least at the special forces level.
All these factors stacked together made their participation very strange.
After all, not everyone had a system like him.
Sizzle! Sizzle!
Just as Li Jiani and Huang Yunhang were complaining about these popular celebrities, the ship’s radio rang.
“Attention, contestants. The ship will depart in ten minutes. All contestants, please gather on the deck at the stern.”
The content of the broadcast was very simple. After repeating the message three times, it ended.
“Let’s gather at the stern first. I think they will give us instructions for the next step,” Li Jiani said.
The three of them went to the back of the deck.
The open swimming pool was closed. Those who had never been to the Starfish would never know that they were standing in a swimming pool.
Although it was a gathering, everyone stood very loosely.
They could only barely be said to have gathered together, and it couldn’t even be considered a proper assembly.
Moreover, due to racial relations, most people stood together with their own countrymen.
Huaxia had the most people, with about 60 people.
Next was Meiguo. There were more than 50 of them.
There was also a certain ratio of people from South Rania and Sunrise Land, which had the same number of participants as Ouzhou.
However, Lin Yi didn’t see any fresh meat among these people. Those folks must have gone through the back door and returned to their cabins to rest.
Lin Yi and the other two stood in a corner at the back, blending into the crowd.
Coincidentally, Lin Yi also saw Chen Dongzhe and Li Sheng from when he signed up that day.
Their gazes met in mid-air, filled with coldness.
Lin Yi ignored Chen Dongzhe and Li Sheng. Instead, he looked ahead because Yan Ci had come out.
Yan Ci once again continued to act like a mature woman.
She was wearing a black skirt, plush black leggings, and a red slim-fit lady’s suit.
Although this outfit was a bit stunning, Yan Ci had put in some effort to match her temperament.
Because next to her were the old Ouzhoun ladies who were dressed even more scantily than she was.
Lin Yi suddenly had a cruel idea.
He would order the captain to take the ship to the northeast and freeze these people to death.
Yan Ci’s appearance made the men present unable to take their eyes off her.
She had an exquisite face from the East and a voluptuous figure that was close to that of Ouzhouns and Meiguons. She was attractive enough even when facing Ouzhoun men.
Ten minutes later, the participants of the competition all gathered and stood on the deck at the stern.
At this moment, Yan Ci held the microphone and said in a standard broadcasting voice,
“Thank you, everyone, for participating in the recording of Man vs. Wild. This program has gathered television stations from eight countries, and the number of participants has reached 1,659…”
Yan Ci spoke confidently for more than ten minutes. The interpreters below were also very conscientious and translated for the people of their respective countries. They did not dare to be sloppy.
However, there was not much useful information. Other than knowing that there were 289 contestants, the rest was basically nonsense.
“Next, the specific details will be explained to everyone by the leaders and directors of each country. Our program will also start recording. I wish everyone good luck!”
