Even if you belong to a demonic sect, you still have to bring glory to the country.
Chapter 225 Compared to professionals
Chapter 225 Compared to professionals
Li Sui thought that office workers would suffer along with her.
As a result, they can now travel abroad and enjoy themselves, while I can't.
Li Sui was so angry.
When he got home and played video games, he lost ten games. When he stepped in dog poop on the way downstairs, Li Sui felt like the sky had fallen.
But it doesn't matter, she's a third-generation rich kid now.
Being unable to leave is not scary; money is what really matters.
Thinking about it this way, Li Sui could instantly immerse herself in the character again.
While Zhang Tian and his team were preparing to depart for an overseas competition, Guan Yuyuan's group had already arrived in their first country.
Since it's an international competition, it naturally involves running all over the world.
The first countries they visited were Asian countries.
Even though the plane ride hadn't lasted more than a few hours, Guan Yuyuan was still nauseous and felt extremely nauseous.
I felt a little better after taking the medicine.
When she and Zhou Jiao arrived, Guan Yuyuan was still in the car, clutching a garbage bag, looking utterly dejected.
However, Zhou Jiao received an unexpected message.
"Are you serious?"
In the back seat, Zhou Jiao, who had just received a call from her agent, stared wide-eyed in disbelief: "Is the production team crazy? Making people like us compete against professionals?"
The agent said with a wry smile on the other end of the phone, "I just found out too. They said it was just a group of amateur experts, but it turns out they're all retired or professional."
"No wonder they offered such good admission tickets; now that the contract is signed, there's no going back."
Zhou Jiao couldn't help but say, "Is this insane? We're just a bunch of celebrities. I can't even lift a finger. You want me to compete against a bunch of professionals in various sports, and not just with other celebrities. Isn't this insane?"
She, who always valued manners, disregarded her anger and swore.
It turns out the production team used a trick when talking about the competitive nature of the program.
Originally, it was supposed to be a competition between celebrities, but now each episode also invites a celebrity from a local country to compete in a different event.
This kind of project isn't necessarily something a country excels at; it depends on how the production team comes up with it.
For example, in this first session, they arranged an archery event.
If that were the case, it would be fine, but the production team didn't restrict other celebrities. They knew they were going to be competing against a group of celebrities from China. Even if they didn't find professional athletes who were still active, they found retired ones.
They are already skilled at it, why are you asking a group of celebrities and ordinary people who have never practiced to compete with them?
What are the chances of winning first place each time?
"No wonder the reward is so high." Zhou Jiao raised her voice and said with a sneer, "So you just want us to embarrass ourselves."
The ultimate grand prize is still the ticket and admission pass that everyone in the industry aspires to.
The result was carrots that were hung up.
It's obvious they don't want anyone to get it.
You can also breach the contract.
The penalty for breach of contract is truly astronomical.
Zhou Jiao could afford to pay the compensation, but it would severely damage her finances.
She has the powerful Wen family behind her, but she can't let her sister have a difficult time in the Wen family.
You can find a reason to quit now, but it's obvious the production team will issue a statement and smear you terribly.
The agent lowered his voice and said, "I heard that the investors include a group of wealthy foreign businessmen. Maybe they just want to watch the show. I've already found out the celebrities and athletes for the first stop. It's Leila and a retired female professional archer."
Zhou Jiao gasped.
They came from the country of Langkawi in Asia. Leila is an internationally renowned actress, and her fame in Asia is also quite prominent.
Being able to hire such a big name must have come at a huge cost.
Zhou Jiao immediately understood the sinister intentions behind the program: "Will this program be broadcast internationally?" Her agent said, "It should be, they said the program team has promotional collaborations with several countries."
Archery is one of the sports that Pulau Langkawi excels at, and they have achieved good results in the past.
There are quite a few professional players in that field in their country.
Zhou Jiao was disgusted: "Why do they want to hold a competition by targeting China?"
After a few seconds of silence, the agent finally said, "They're probably paying us to embarrass ourselves."
They now have a group of celebrities from China, who compete against a local celebrity each episode.
This competition format is clearly unfair.
If the show has a large influence, and the Chinese celebrities lose every episode, the consequences are unimaginable.
Even if the opponent is unsportsmanlike and hires professionals, a loss is a loss.
This is no longer about Zhou Jiao competing with other domestic celebrities; it's about embarrassing herself internationally.
The agent said, "Don't worry, let me inquire further. By the way, that Guan Yuyuan you were looking for... she..."
The agent also found it somewhat difficult to talk about.
When Zhou Jiao went to find someone, she felt something was off. How could she have found such a girl?
Although Guan Yuyuan was dizzy, she heard it clearly and muttered, "Why look down on me? I may not be as good as my dad and the others, but I'm still pretty capable..."
That's what her father said.
Compared to ordinary people, Guan Yuyuan's situation is akin to a "dimensional reduction attack".
Hearing her mutter, Zhou Jiao said, "I'll call you when I have time."
Then he hung up the phone.
Guan Yuyuan had already overheard what the agent said on the phone, and she roughly understood what he meant: "Did they hire a professional?"
Zhou Jiao was stunned for a moment, not expecting that Guan Yuyuan had heard everything.
Then, with a slight headache, he nodded: "Yes, the other party has a profession."
The production team will also give them some training time.
Even if they train, they still can't play at all.
Do you think you can handle professionals after just a few days or ten days of practice?
The whole trip was so rushed.
Guan Yuyuan opened her wide eyes: "You mean none of you know how to do it?"
Zhou Jiao smiled wryly and said, "We definitely won't, I'm too weak to even think about it."
Guan Yuyuan said, "That's too shameless. How can professionals bully laymen like you?"
Zhou Jiao: "...There's nothing we can do. We've already signed the contract, so we're basically on a sinking ship."
The investors behind the show are powerful, and the contract is fine. It's just that the nature of the variety show is somewhat different from what was agreed upon with them.
Even if it's tough, we have to participate now.
Guan Yuyuan muttered to herself, "Then you can't blame me."
Before she arrived, neither her father nor the sect leader allowed her to use her internal energy.
She was originally confident of winning based on her skills.
Since the other party is not showing any martial ethics, then she will also not show any martial ethics!
Zhou Jiao didn't hear clearly: "What?"
Guan Yuyuan patted her hand: "Don't worry, I will try my best to get you first place. I will definitely not let us down."
Zhou Jiao: "?"
Even Zhou Jiao wanted to sigh and tell this silly child.
What does it mean to know that the other person is a professional athlete?
But now that things have come to this, we can only take it one step at a time.
