Wilderness Challenge [Comprehensive British American American Entertainment]

The Rocky Mountains are composed of countless small mountain ranges. The main part starts from British Columbia, Canada in the north, and extends to New Mexico in the United States in the south. It runs for more than 4800 kilometers from north to south. It is the origin of almost all major rivers and an important watershed in the North American continent. [1]

The cold winter has just come to an end, and the small town at the foot of the mountain at high altitude and high latitude is colder than the city. Jennifer was shivering from the cold as soon as she got off the plane.But it was cold, she didn't go back to get a thick coat, but rubbed her arms vigorously, hoping to get used to the temperature in the mountains as soon as possible.

From the tarmac to the camp, along the way, you can meet tightly wrapped staff and players. If the eyes of others were full of surprises before the first round, in the second round, they cast Her eyes were filled with admiration and vigilance: Among all the players, she must belong to the one who can fight but is difficult to deal with.

Jennifer walked forward without squinting, looking up from time to time at the cameras flying around in the sky.

After the last round, she originally wanted to take "Buddy" home, but thinking about taking a high-tech camera with her to participate in the competition, it seems a little bad, and now she can only look at these golden and red balls be envious.

When I think of Buddy, I also think of the stupid bird. I heard that the animal protection organization funded by Luthor has gone to the uninhabited island. After this round, she will probably be able to see the stupid big bird in the video. If If you have time, maybe you can fly over and see for yourself.

Thinking about her own thoughts, she didn't notice that a tall man suddenly appeared in front of her eyes, and when she passed by, her shoulder rubbed against her shoulder, and Jennifer was immediately knocked crooked.

"I'm sorry," the man said.

"It's okay, I'm distracted too." Jennifer smiled.

After saying this, she politely bypassed the other party and walked towards the base camp. Unexpectedly, the other party moved a little, and happened to be stuck on the only way to pass, pretending to be interested in talking.

She was a tall, well-built woman, boldly dressed.The lady also played well in the first round, only to lose a few days after the storm hit.As one of the few female contestants who entered the top 100, she was vigorously promoted by the program group like the others. After becoming famous, she quit her job as a swimming coach and became a survival teaching blogger. She also received two or three endorsement.

If Jennifer had watched the full clip of the first round, she would have known the identity of the opponent, but unfortunately she did not.

At this moment, there is only one familiar feeling—the feeling of being rubbed against the camera.

She looked up, and sure enough, several cameras were already outputting frantically towards this corner.Feeling that there might be a lot of "suspected conflict", "suspected personal relationship" or "suspected sex" drafts flying all over the sky in a few hours, she politely smiled at the other party, turned around and walked quickly towards the center of the camp .

After walking a few steps, the lady followed closely.

Jennifer was a little displeased with this kind of "familiarity", so when she walked into the base camp, she used the excuse to catch up with the familiar host Jimmy Kimmel[2], and left the lady who still wanted to come with her behind.

"Jimmy!" Jennifer strode exaggeratedly, "Why are you here, do you have to change the host every episode?"

"Don't you know that each support person is in charge of a different venue, I just happened to be here." Jimmy smiled and shook hands with her, "It's a pity, I thought I would invite Matt Damon if the program group invited me , it seems that my dream of making him look ugly on an outdoor show is doomed to fail."

The "Jimmy Chicken Feather Show" hosted by this dude is one of the most popular talk shows. He himself was named "the strongest man on American TV (biggestbadass)" in 2007, but he is better known for his relationship with the famous male Matt Damon's love-hate relationship. [3]

Jennifer knew that this was partly because the relationship between the two was really good, and partly because of the effect of the show, so she followed his words and said a few words.

The schedule of the program group was very tight, and after a short chat, all the contestants were rushed to undergo physical examination and entry.According to the usual practice, each of them was also issued a "Match Manual", a backpack, a set of competition clothing and a life ring.

Jennifer adjusted the wristband, but saw that the function of the display screen, which was originally prohibited, was enabled. Instead of displaying physiological indicators, there was a green dot jumping on it, which looked like a very, very simple GPS.

She frowned and opened her backpack again.

The second round gave much less props than the first round.

The first round is relatively friendly to novices. Under the painstaking nanny-style prop arrangement of the production team, most players can survive the first few days.But the backpack for the second round contained only a bottle of mineral water, a rope and an outdoor knife.Jennifer took out the knife and took a closer look, and was satisfied to find that Lex Industry knew its shame and acted bravely. This time, what it provided was no longer a thin dagger, but a machete with one sharp edge and one thick side.But this also illustrates the dangers of the mountain environment.

In the afternoon, all the contestants were gathered in the open area in the middle of the camp for the final explanation and task release.

Jimmy first explained the characteristics of the Rocky Mountains following the projections made by the camera team, and then praised the track arrangement of the production team in humorous words.

The natural environment is complex and diverse. The program team has hired a large number of natural scientists, explorers and active survival instructors to form the track design department, and must ensure that each round of competition is as fair as possible.For example, each section of the Rocky Mountains from south to north and each small mountain range have different characteristics. Players sent to different areas will need to walk different distances on foot within 15 days. The dangers and risks they must face Challenges will also be different.

This kind of relative fairness made the contestants and the audience more satisfied, and naturally gave enough face to the host's gag.Jennifer lay on the gun again, and was pulled out many times for program effects.

The first round pretty much wiped out all the celebrity players, leaving only her and one other male singer still in the game.Although the reputation and discussion of "Wilderness Challenge" were very high in the first round, the celebrity effect has actually been greatly reduced. In order to become popular in the future, the production team may still have a backup.

There are only two aspects to this second player, one is the competition system, and the other is people.

One is the competition system.The competition itself is the key to the wilderness program. The challenge location is as dangerous as possible, and there are as many emergencies as possible to attract the audience's attention.The last time I landed in Fiji, everyone thought it must be island survival, but at the beginning the requirement was drifting on the ocean. I am afraid that the second round will not be as simple as throwing people into the mountains.

The second is people. The program team either has to bring out some new reality show stars to play the leading roles, or it has to make a fuss about getting along with people.

Thinking of this, Jennifer looked at the host with piercing eyes, just in time to hear the other party say:

"I think you should have been looking forward to the second round for a long time. Now I will announce the content of the second round."

He waved his hand at the camera group, and the projection changed immediately.

"In the second round, 1000 contestants will be divided into 250 groups, and they will be thrown into the Rocky Mountains. The ring of life on your hand will display green and red dots after touching, that is, the location of the wearer and the location of the destination. The location. The competition has a total of 15 days, and you must arrive at the destination within 15 days, otherwise you will fail."

Everyone was in an uproar and looked at each other one after another—the program crew is... asking them to cooperate?

Jimmy continued: "According to the order of arrival, there will be 400 players who will enter the next round."

Someone shouted: "I have a problem! Is the score calculated by the group or by the individual?"

Jimmy pointed: "Of course it's according to the individual."

He was referring to the game manual in the hands of the people in the first row. In a flash, many players started to flip through the book. Jennifer also took out the manual that she had read many times and flipped through it. Sure enough, there was no mention of anything related to the team It neither said any obligations and responsibilities among the team members, nor did it say what impact one team member would have on other team members when he reached the finish line or retired from the race.

What a "wilderness challenge"!

She is clear-eyed.

It is not only divided into groups but also unified rankings. In case there are low-level players in a group, if they have to take care of the rhythm of others or insist on helping them, it is very likely that the entire group will not be able to win; Help, especially for a public figure like her, the crusade in the live broadcast room can be imagined.

She sneered in her heart.

It seems that once you enter Hollywood, no matter what kind of capital you have, it will be colored by Hollywood, and you are well versed in the truth of "controversy attracts heat and makes headlines".

In the first round, there were strong winds and waves at sea, and we had to face a sudden storm. The excitement had already lifted the hearts of the audience.The second round of hikes in the Rocky Mountains that was originally scheduled should be as difficult as the first round, but now it seems not enough to tantalize.If there are no wild animals in the mountains or other emergencies, if a group of people walk in the deep mountains and old forests for 15 days, the audience will soon be exhausted, so it is necessary to use the interaction between the players to create highlights.

Knowing the production team's intentions, Jennifer kept silent, watching some players around them start to communicate as if they had just woken up from a dream.These players are afraid that the assigned big team members will not take them, and they are even more afraid that they will be assigned some players who have been eliminated early and will be filled into the second round. If they can form teams freely, they may not be able to fight in the base camp now.

Someone from the side also came up to talk to her, but seeing her slightly absent-minded appearance, they retreated embarrassingly.

Jimmy let the scene go wild for a few minutes.

Of course, this is also the intention of the program group. They hope to send a message to the audience through the reaction of the contestants: Everyone did not know that this kind of thing would happen. This is not a well-written script. The contestants are as surprised as you are.

After about five or six minutes, he turned on the microphone on the collar again: "Okay, okay, you guys are so urgent, you are going to catch up on the suspension bridge effect and fall in love if you see the right eye, and take two shots if you don't see the right eye. scattered, right?"

Only then did everyone concentrate.

He lowered his hands to control the situation: ""Wildness Challenge" has said from the very beginning that it is necessary to simulate the original scene and explore the limits of human beings. If all cities are destroyed tomorrow and human beings suddenly return to the wilderness, then someone must survive alone. Some people form a team to survive. Challengers have to face not only their own loneliness, but also getting along with other challengers."

That makes a lot of sense, Jennifer thought.

The same is true in the place where she lived. On a sudden day, all the cities sank into the ground like a curse from God. Primitive plants counterattacked human civilization, making the whole world live in an alternative prehistoric civilization.It's just that they walked alone or with a partner for real survival, but now they walk alone or with a partner for competition; the end of the year was endless, but now the challenge is time-limited.

She sighed in her heart, but on the face she followed the host's instructions and touched the ring of life like everyone else.A blue light flashed, and a projection suddenly appeared on the screen with a big "5" written on it.

Jimmy explained: "The ring of life shows the group of the players. Now you can find the helicopter on the tarmac according to the group, and the driver will send you to the place where you should go. Don't worry, these groups are random The mountain road is dangerous and there are many beasts, players, I wish you good luck."

After saying this, he turned off the microphone.

Jennifer stood up with the others, shaking the grass off her body, and walked towards the tarmac with her backpack on her back.

The helicopters dedicated to the program group were all spray-painted. She quickly walked to the plane marked "5" and joined the other three contestants.

The helicopter took off a few minutes later, leaving the camp far behind.

It carried four contestants who were still immersed in thinking across human towns, over dense forests, over undulating ridges, and finally arrived at a huge lake.

The fuselage descended, and the wind pressure brought by the propellers made the calm lake surface choppy, almost like a white curtain wall.

At this moment, the driver turned his head from the front: "You can jump."

One competitor screamed: "What are you talking about? Jumping from here?!"

"Yes, jump!" The driver shouted again.

The three contestants look at me and I look at you, grabbing their backpacks and looking at the last person at the same time.

Resisting the urge to twitch the corners of her mouth, Jennifer was the first to move to the cabin door, and jumped down without hesitation.
