Chapter 244: Chapter 244 Lucky Card
“Next, we’ll announce this episode’s tasks, which are different from before as this time, we’ll use a card drawing and snatching system.
The production team has three types of cards: Lucky Card, unlucky card, and ordinary card.
The group that draws the Lucky Card can enjoy the episode without work and just play to their hearts’ content.
The group that gets the unlucky card has to complete five times the usual workload, which means earning a total of 500 yuan.
The group that draws an ordinary card needs to complete the usual task, earning 100 yuan will suffice.
If a participant is not satisfied with the card they’ve drawn, they can choose to snatch another group’s Task Card. However, the condition is that they cannot be caught by another group; otherwise, it’s considered a failed task.
Tip: If the group with the Lucky Card wants to avoid being snatched, they can put on a dramatic performance and confuse the other groups about the type of card they have, thus decreasing the likelihood of being snatched.”
After the director had read the game rules, the guests pretty much understood the gist.
Obviously, with cary here this episode, the production team was looking to stir things up.
The disparity between a Lucky Card and an unlucky card was huge, and the task with 500 yuan was nearly impossible to complete, sure to lead to snatching incidents among the participants. The competition would create highlights and show effectiveness.
It was anyone’s guess who would be the unlucky one to draw that unlucky card.
Production team: “All right, now let’s freely form groups.”
“I’d like to be with C…” As Qiao Yahan raised her hand, cary abruptly put his arm around Ye Xian’s shoulder, “I’m in a group with Ye Xian; the rest of you are free to choose.”
The other guests had anticipated it and weren’t surprised, but then, to everyone’s surprise, the director suddenly interjected, “Both of you are newcomers and still not too familiar with the show’s rules. It won’t be convenient to complete the tasks as a pair, will it? If you happen to draw the unlucky card, you’re doomed. Better add one more person to your group.”
After saying that, everyone in the match house looked at them with expectation in their eyes.
A variety rookie and a variety superstar—if one could join their group, who would worry about camera time?
Ye Xian: “…” She had an arrangement that if she brought cary on board, she wouldn’t have to team up with anyone else. The director was being deceitful; that was too cunning!
cary, however, didn’t mind, “Ye Xian, you choose. I’m not very familiar with everyone’s strengths.”
She wasn’t too familiar either since they hadn’t included her in the previous episode.
Ye Xian: “Let’s draw cards first. It’s more prudent to choose teammates based on the nature of the cards we get.”
“Good idea!” said cary. “You draw or should I?”
Ye Xian: “You.” Last time, she had amply demonstrated her streak of bad luck; if she were to draw, she would definitely get the unlucky card.
Cary, Liu Kaiyan, and Qiao Yahan each stepped forward to draw a Task Card. To maintain the mystery, the production team did not reveal the properties of the cards on the spot.
“Now, the cards have been placed by our staff in each of your respective group’s rooms. You are free to enter, check the cards, and discuss your strategies.”
cary and Ye Xian entered the temporary resting room in the match house. As soon as they were inside, cary couldn’t wait to shut the door and sat on the edge of the bed, beginning to take off his shoes.
“…” Ye Xian: “What are you doing?”
“Of course, changing shoes. We’re about to shoot outdoors, and my shoes are definitely going to be on camera. I need to take the opportunity to show off the shoes I’m endorsing.”
He really was a dedicated endorser.
Ye Xian glanced at the pair of new shoes he was holding, “Designer brand?”
A renowned men’s shoe brand under the BHS Group.
Cary: “Yeah, a luxury brand. Jealous?”
