"???"
"!!!"
The audience members who were originally watching the spectacle were so startled by the pairings announced by the production team that the snacks in their hands dropped.
The bullet screen in the live broadcast room even stopped producing new comments.
After hearing the complete list of 33 pairings, they finally reacted.
Looking at Zhou Niannian, who had already gone into a slump.
Fake fans were still offering comfort, while true fans were laughing their heads off.
The bullet screen in the live broadcast room instantly surged.
"The director is amazing, so amazing. This is clearly a path to misery. Zhou Jie and Brother will be together all the way, this is going to be fun."
"I said, why is the first rule in the competition not to kill teammates, and it's even bolded and enlarged. So this is what they were waiting for!"
"Hahaha, Zhou Jie is really too miserable, she can't get revenge after being kicked, the production team is truly insane (but doing a great job)!"
"Looking at Zhou Jie's pitiable state, I'm just too happy."
"This group is doomed. I'll bet a basket of cucumbers, they'll be the last place."
A small streamer who delivered a shocking kick, and Zhou Niannian, who wanted to kill her teammate after being tricked.
Because of the director's grouping list that challenged people's nerves.
The viewers in the live broadcast room could already foresee how difficult this group's survival journey would be.
But they found it incredibly entertaining and were more than happy to watch the drama unfold.
In the studio, the atmosphere was also very relaxed.
Lele had received prior training and had to hold back her laughter, no matter how funny it was.
After glancing at the landing performance of other streamers, she finally managed to maintain a polite smile.
"Ahem, it seems our director was truly 'diligent' in preparing this grouping."
More than diligent, almost every group of streamers had something interesting about them, and several groups had already started arguing just by meeting up after landing.
The conflict delighted the viewers in the live broadcast room.
The ample points of interest made the audience look forward to future developments.
After landing and being grouped, the streamers began to gather with their teammates and each had their own desired direction.
Lele interacted with the bullet screen for a while, then handed over the microphone to Bear Grylls.
"Bear Grylls, you have more experience. Based on the current situation, what should we do after landing?"
The camera shifted to Bear Grylls, who pondered for a moment and said.
"The center of this deserted island is a rainforest, and in a rainforest, the most important thing is water."
"Without food, you can live for three weeks, but without water, you can't last a few days."
Bear Grylls had said this in his previous shows.
The streamers who had prepared understood this point.
After a brief period of despair, Zhou Niannian cheered up.
After separating from Dai Xiaomei, she quickly got into the zone.
She scanned the decaying branches on the ground, listened carefully to the surrounding sounds, and began to infer.
"I did my homework before. In this rainforest, the most important thing is to find water."
"I think I hear the sound of flowing water over there, we can go there to find water."
Zhou Niannian said, pointing towards the southeast.
"I don't know when it will get dark, we need to be quick."
With that, she walked towards the suspected water source without much thought.
After a few steps, she found that the man behind her hadn't followed.
Zhou Niannian frowned and asked Jiang Fan impatiently.
"Hey, why aren't you coming?"
Even though they had a falling out, they were still teammates, and Zhou Niannian couldn't leave him behind.
But Jiang Fan didn't appreciate it.
He had been to the rainforest before and was somewhat familiar with it.
But being in the rainforest now was completely different from before.
The atmospheric pressure had become very low, and breathing felt stuffy.
Yet, with every breath, he inhaled a lot of moisture.
Even more noticeable was the familiar scenery becoming hazy.
It was even white with mist in his eyes.
Reaching out to touch it, the direction of the mist was clearly visible.
This peculiar feeling made Jiang Fan realize.
[Humidity Detection]
He had wondered what use the system's talent was.
He hadn't expected it to be to personally perceive the density of water vapor.
He mused.
Zhou Niannian next to him felt they didn't have time to waste.
Without any tools, the most important thing now was water, and then they needed to quickly find a place to spend the night.
The time wasted now would be the hardship they would endure tonight.
"Hey, we need to go. You can't not drink water, can you?"
Zhou Niannian urged.
But Jiang Fan, after a moment of thought, picked three or four large leaves, laid them in a small pit on the ground.
He picked two more large leaves, one to sit on and one to put over his head.
And then he sat down!
Zhou Niannian's heart flared with anger.
This was clearly him trying to be lazy!
"Now is not the time to rest. Water is a very important resource, the sooner we find it, the better."
"If you really need to rest, it would be good to rest after we find water."
With the rule of not being able to 'kill' teammates, Zhou Niannian could only suppress her anger and try to persuade him patiently.
Jiang Fan, however, was not listening.
"It's very humid, it's going to rain soon."
His tone was certain, but those who heard it subconsciously disbelieved him.
Especially seeing other streamers in the live broadcast room still struggling to find water, Jiang Fan's words seemed even less convincing.
In the studio, Lele was momentarily speechless and didn't know what to say.
After a pause, she turned to ask Bear Grylls.
"Bear Grylls, this streamer, number 66, is certain it's about to rain. What do you think about this?"
"Rain..."
Bear Grylls frowned.
He had also heard Jiang Fan's words and saw the upcoming weather from the monitor.
"The humidity in the rainforest is very high, and using humidity to predict rain isn't very reliable."
"However, there are dark clouds in the sky now, and it should rain within an hour."
"Before that, we could look for other water sources or food."
"Sitting down to wait now is still a bit of a waste of time."
Although Bear Grylls confirmed Jiang Fan's prediction of rain, he was not optimistic about his action of sitting down to wait for the rain.
With the expert's opinion, Jiang Fan's behavior became even more incomprehensible.
Not everyone would become a fan of Jiang Fan just because he kicked someone; more people thought he was not a very friendly streamer.
After hearing Bear Grylls' words, they finally couldn't help but complain.
"He's just resting and not collecting supplies. He'll suffer later. Sister Zhou is unlucky to be dragged down by someone like this."
"This is just a relatively unknown small streamer, called Jiang Fan, I've never heard of him. He's good at being lazy."
"I wanted to say this earlier, just to get exposure and attention, kicking someone off the plane so casually, even if there were safety measures, that kind of behavior is too bold. I really don't know what's so praiseworthy about such a streamer."
"My brother is ruthless and speaks little, that's why I'm a fan. Bear Grylls also said it'll rain within an hour, and it could rain at any second, why are you all barking?"
"The one in front, do you think it's a spoken charm? If it's going to rain, he should just become a fortune teller."
In the live broadcast room, some viewers who couldn't stand Jiang Fan's behavior began to voice their objections.
The two sides started arguing, causing chaos in the live broadcast room, making it not peaceful.
Despite the chaos, the popularity increased, attracting more viewers to watch.
Seeing the popularity in the live broadcast room gradually rising, the director was very satisfied.
"Not bad."
He felt that Jiang Fan likely had some knowledge of wilderness survival, but hadn't mastered it fully.
Sitting down to wait for the rain now, besides being confident in his own judgment, might also be an attempt to deliberately stir up trouble.
This was a good thing.
Without any topics of discussion, such a show wouldn't be watched.
Controversy was needed. Even if it meant bearing infamy, the goal of pursuing traffic would be achieved.
The director never opposed using minor tactics for popularity.
This precisely showed the other party's ambition and drive.
After all, being infamous was still being famous.
As long as there was popularity, making a comeback and clearing their name would be a matter of minutes.
The director's mind was filled with various methods of redemption, but he felt his arm being patted by the assistant director.
Turning his head, he saw the assistant director looking excited, pointing at the monitor screen.
"Quick! Look!"
"It's raining!!!"
