Chapter 74 The Price of Cheating
Driving through a grassland, Li Ang looked at the program team's props RV from afar.
Obviously, the road that Li Ang chose at the fork in the road was correct and successfully arrived at the program venue.
"Hello, my name is Li Ang, I signed up for the crew's substitute."
After getting off the bus, Li Ang casually found a crew member to explain his purpose.
"You're the substitute? That's great. The director is looking for you. Come with me."
The staff took Li Ang to the white RV.
"This is Mike, the director of our Apocalypse column. The lady next to her is producer Mary. This big guy who looks like a fitness coach is actually our planner. Dell was a naval colonel before he became the planner."
Under the introduction of the staff, Li Ang greeted and said hello to several people one by one.
"This substitute is quite handsome. In my opinion, he will definitely be on camera. OK, Li Ang, I announce now that you have officially become one of the challengers in our column."
The director said to Li Ang.
TV programs have always had high requirements for actors' appearance, and Li Ang has a high-ranking and noble appearance and is very popular among the audience.
Handsome men and beautiful women are all one of the projects that increase ratings.
"But, don't you already have six challengers? I'm just a substitute..."
Li Ang just felt inexplicably that he signed up for a substitute, but in fact he was just here to make a fuss. He didn't want to participate in this program at all. He originally wanted to take advantage of the opportunity of the program team shooting nearby and secretly go to the Yilakori Paper Factory to investigate the clues about the cause of his parents' death.
"Hi, buddy, since we decided to use you as a substitute, there must be some accident. The No. 1 Challenger Kimberly has not arrived at the show until now. She has released our pigeons. So while pursuing the breach of contract, we also need to add a challenger to let the show continue. Do you understand?"
The director explained to Li Ang.
"And you don't have to worry about the lack of treatment as a substitute. As long as you can win the challenge and win the championship smoothly, our prize of up to 100,000 US dollars will also be awarded to you."
Li Ang understood now, but he just didn't understand.
Obviously, when Li Ang saw Kimberly walking in front of him, he should have arrived at the show before he was himself. Why did he arrive now but the woman disappeared?
Could it be that it is a fork in the road?
This is possible.
At the fork in the road, Li Ang chose the road to the right, and it is very likely that Kimberly chose the left.
But even if she took the wrong path, it had been so long since she had passed, and it would have been a long time since she returned the same path.
However, the affairs of others have nothing to do with Li Ang. Since Kimberly has broken the appointment, it is natural that Li Ang will take her place.
"Okay, everyone, come to me to gather."
Planner Dell applauded and let all the challengers gather in front of him.
Li Ang looked at it and found that in addition to himself, there were five other challengers, three female challengers, one white little white face, and one black buddy.
"Hey man, new here? Why have I never seen you before? My name is Jonse."
The young man is very talkative and he is familiar with him.
"My name is Li Ang. In fact, I am a substitute. Kimberly didn't come today. I will take part in the show on her behalf."
Li Ang explained.
"Cool! I said that the spoiled female star will definitely give up halfway. This kind of doomsday reality show is not something she can experience in the greenhouse flowers."
Jonse said.
"People, please keep quiet and listen to me,"
Planner Dell signaled everyone to be quiet, "Since you sign up for our program, you should know that our program is very real. You are not allowed to carry any personal belongings, such as food, water, etc., except for the clothes you are wearing now, please give me other extra things. You can only take them away when the challenge is over."
After everyone handed over their belongings, the planner Dell led the team and led a few people to the challenge camp on foot.
"By the way, is your name Nina?"
When Li Ang was watching the preview of the show in a restaurant, the name of this young foreign girl who is good at painting seemed to be Nina.
"Is my name related to you? Listen to handsome guy, I'm not here to make friends, I'm here to win the championship and win the prize."
Nina didn't even shook Li Ang, looking coaxing.
She thought that Li Ang took the initiative to talk to her to chat with her.
"Is that so? Actually, I want to ask you, is this yours?"
Li Ang said, taking out a small bag of high-energy chocolate bars.
Just now, when Nina lowered her head and tied her shoelaces, it accidentally fell out of her pocket and was picked up by Li Ang who was following behind.
"The plan clearly stipulates that all challengers are not allowed to carry personal belongings. You actually hid a bag of chocolate bars. You are cheating."
Li Ang said with a wicked smile.
Nina's face suddenly collapsed, she lowered her posture and whispered: "I'm sorry, I was too impulsive to speak just now. Can you give it back to me?"
"I originally planned to return it to you, but you didn't plan to make friends, so..."
Under Nina's eyes, Li Ang tore open the packaging and stuffed the chocolate bar into his mouth and chewed it.
Just add a little bit of mind to take advantage of emergencies.
"you……"
Nina almost hated this damn guy. She not only humiliated her in person, but also ate the food that should have belonged to her.
The filming time chosen by the program team is very tricky, and the filming time is just lunch time. Letting all challengers complete the challenge in a state of hunger is also one of the selling points of the program.
Nina often watches this show and knows certain rules, so she secretly carries snacks to fight hunger, but she doesn't expect that it will make others cheaper.
It’s really a matter of stealing chickens and losing rice.
Soon, everyone arrived at a temporary camp.
This place has long been arranged into a doomsday place by some program props, gasoline barrels, scrapped cars, burnt skeletons, and even a broken helicopter wreck.
All six challengers, including Li Ang, wore special headsets.
This headset has both shooting and recording functions, and can transmit video and audio in real time through signals to the computer in the RV that the program team followed, and retain it as a post-cut editing.
With the director saying "start", the program officially began recording.
Planner Dell began to passionately explain the rules that need attention in the show to all challengers.
Afterwards, he asked all the challengers to draw lots and team up in pairs.
Those who draw the same number are composed into a group.
Black buddy Jack and beautiful Elena draw the number one, the little white-faced Jonse and retired female warrior Amber draw the number two, while the number three is drawn by Li Ang and his enemy Nina.
Chapter completed!
