CHAPTER 575: CHAPTER 565: THIS TIME, SET THE FIRE

"Weekend" this reality show is somewhat similar to those celebrity adventure reality shows, but there are many differences.

It features celebrities with the spirit of adventure, and in the various games they’ve designed, there’s a lot of randomness and mystery.

For instance, taking you to a twenty-meter-high tower for bungee jumping. After you leap from the tower with trembling legs and feel proud of your courage, you finally realize that your real goal was to count the number of scarves tied to the handrails on your way up.

Or, for example, after enduring countless challenges to cross the jungle, you find a pot in front of you, and your goal is to select your own ingredients from the jungle to cook dinner and see who makes the tastiest dish.

It’s this journey of the unknown that makes the celebrities suffer but also curious, gradually finding fun in the nonsensical tasks and even realizing some truths from them.

As long as your will is steadfast along this journey, you can establish a new image in front of the audience, which is a rare opportunity for celebrities seeking to transform their careers.

The design of this reality show involves setting up a team under the chief producer with two chief directors, one focusing on the live scene and the other on the script; under them, several deputy directors are responsible for coordination, artists, business liaison, post-production, etc.

The team is divided into the landscape group, scriptwriting group, directing group, filming group, post-production group, and production group.

Director Li and Director Wu are the producers and chief directors of this reality show.

Director Li is notoriously tough in the entertainment industry, difficult to deal with, but the shows he produces always have great reviews, giving him a certain degree of authority in showbiz.

Director Wu, on the other hand, is known as a nice guy. He and Director Li have been good friends for many years, having worked on countless shows together. Because of their collaborative success and Director Wu’s personality, everyone has high respect for him.

So, these two directors could be said to be unafraid of any threats, focusing purely on creating the variety shows they love.

Although Qin Zhan arranged many programs for Xu Renfei, all of them had good reviews. Initially, Director Li opposed Xu Renfei joining this show because Xu Renfei was too unruly and they feared they couldn’t manage him. But both directors knew Xu Renfei’s unpredictability was exactly what the show needed.

Thus, they agreed. And, judging by the recordings of the first few episodes, they guaranteed Xu Renfei would definitely become popular again.

However, when someone demanded to replace Xu Renfei with An Yi, even Director Wu got annoyed.

These people were trying to threaten them with their status, thinking they had no temper, huh?

So they decided to arrange pairings for this episode. Originally, there were five celebrity artists, but with the pairings, there would be ten celebrity artists in total.

You wanted us to keep An Yi, we did. But Xu Renfei isn’t going anywhere. There are five groups, ten celebrities, and whoever shows the best performance will get more screen time. That’s the requirement of the show, and they have to manage everything themselves.

Indeed, when Xu Renfei invited the currently very popular non-celebrity star Bi Xia, both Director Li and Director Wu laughed. They had watched ’I Am a High School Student,’ where everyone said Bi Xia had lots of screen time. But they knew some people are born to be in front of the camera.

Now, An Yi is on his own.

Everything was arranged. Director Li looked at the ancient city within Mo City and smiled slowly, "Ancient city, bless us to get popular again!"

Director Wu called, and as Director Li looked at the black car speeding towards them in the distance, he narrowed his eyes, pushed his glasses, and said into his walkie-talkie, "Prepare... camera!"

As the camera focused instantly, the black car drifted smoothly, swiveled half a turn, then gracefully completed another half turn, stopping perfectly in the center of the frame.

The car door slowly opened, revealing a pair of high-top black and white sneakers in the camera. Director Li looked at the camera and suddenly grinned, "This episode is going to be hot!"
