Chapter 871 - 871 Is That Brother Mask?
871 Is That Brother Mask?
“He’s the kind of person who looks thin in clothes but has flesh when he takes off his clothes,” Yan Ci explained.
“Whether it’s his strength or technique, he has the skill to back it up. He’s considered amongst the most outstanding even among the many contestants.”
Lin Yi nodded. In terms of strength and technique, Yan Ci was quite qualified to evaluate him.
“Alright, take a seat first.” Wu Wenshu said, “The people that Little Zhu and Little Sun found will be here soon. When everyone is here, we’ll get down to business.”
Wu Wenshu was hesitant about Lin Yi’s strength.
However, because Yan Ci was the one who found him, he didn’t say anything.
However, Yan Ci didn’t think of this angle, she only felt that he was trying to get special treatment and use connections to get in.”
A few minutes later, the door of the meeting room was pushed open and three middle-aged men entered.
They looked to be in his early forties, their expressions serious and unsmiling. They even had an imposing aura that could even be described as fierce.
In comparison, Lin Yi looked much more amiable.
Seeing the three of them enter, Wu Wenshu nodded in satisfaction. He felt that this was more appropriate.
The person that Yan Ci found was really not a good fit.
“Station Head, his name is Niu Dongliang. He has practiced mixed martial arts for eight years and has been to the Amazon rainforest before. His wilderness survival skills are top-notch,” the assistant director, Zhu Rui, said.
“Station Head, I found the other two. Their names are Meng Chi and Qu Xingnian. They’re also experts in wilderness survival. There’s no doubt about their abilities.”
Wu Wenshu nodded in satisfaction. “There’s no need to say anything else. Just by looking at their aura, I feel that they are not bad.”
“Station Head, now that everyone is here, we can talk about the matter,” Yan Ci said.
“Don’t be anxious. I’ll call my man over. Then, we’ll have a meeting to discuss things.”
Yan Ci muttered in his heart, ‘Did the station head also bring someone over?’
Wu Wenshu made a call. A few minutes later, the door of the conference room was pushed open and more than ten people walked in.
Seeing the person who came in, Lin Yi and the others frowned slightly.
This was because these people were not ordinary contestants, but celebrities that he had seen before.
Li Chenxing, whom he had met previously, was one of them.
Discounting the managers and assistants, there were a total of two celebrities, a man and a woman.
It had to be said that the looks of celebrities and internet celebrities were worlds apart.
That female celebrity’s appearance and figure were indeed remarkable.
Lin Yi was a little puzzled. With her looks, she should receive plenty of resources. There was no need for him to participate in such a show.
Perhaps it was because the opposite sex attracted each other, but the female celebrity also secretly looked at Lin Yi.
She wondered, ‘Who is this person? Why haven’t I seen him before? Could he be a newcomer to the entertainment industry?’
Yan Ci, who was at the side, was thinking more professionally than Lin Yi.
If he had invited all these popular celebrities over, the content of the meeting later would probably have nothing to do with special treatment.
Seeing them sit down, Wu Wenshu smiled and said,
“Now that everyone is here, I’ll be straightforward with you. I’m sure you all know these people here. They’re all celebrities in the entertainment industry. Their motive for coming to participate in this show is very simple. They just want to prove themselves…”
“Boss, wait.”
The burly man called Niu Dongliang interrupted Wu Wenshu.
“Does this have anything to do with us?”
“Don’t be anxious. Let me explain slowly.” Wu Wenshu smiled and said.
“They’re all multi-talented celebrities. In terms of professionalism, they might still be a little inferior to you. Therefore, my idea is to let the six of you form a team to fight for the final prize.”
“You must be joking!”
Niu Dongliang said,
“There are many experts participating in the competition. We might not even achieve good results ourselves. If we bring them along, we will definitely struggle. So I’m sorry, I can’t agree to your request.”
Wu Wenshu frowned. He did not expect to run into a wall right from the start, so he looked at the other two.
“Mr. Meng, Mr. Qu, what do you two think?”
The two of them looked at each other. Qu Xingnian shrugged and said,
“I’m really sorry. Although you’re the head of this show, we can’t accept such conditions.”
Yan Ci frowned and supported her head with one hand. Her face was expressionless, but it was obvious that she was unhappy.
She did not expect even this kind of show to fall under the influence of capitalism.
Wu Wenshu didn’t ask for Lin Yi’s opinion. He directly passed him over and said with a smile,
“I know. You’re both hot-blooded people and value your final results very much. That’s why we won’t ask you to help for nothing.”
“What do you mean?” Niu Dongliang asked.
Wu Wenshu didn’t say anything. He gave Li Chenxing’s agent a look. The latter said,
“Give me a number. How much will it take?”
The three of them looked at each other. They hadn’t expected them to be so blunt.
If that was the case, they would have to consider it carefully.
After all, they had come here for money.
Now that someone had taken the initiative to come knocking on their door, there was naturally no reason to refuse.
The three of them gathered together and studied it for a while. Finally, Niu Dongliang said,
“Six hundred thousand per person, but we can only protect them for a week. We can’t protect them throughout.”
‘Huh?’
Lin Yi paused.
What was the meaning of this?
You aren’t even going to ask for my opinion? Do you think I don’t exist?
Tony paused. “No problem.”
“We still need to consider this price.” The female celebrity’s manager said, “I’ll give you an answer later.”
“Sure,” Niu Dongliang said. “But you have to consider it carefully. In a place like this, if there’s no one to protect her, it’ll be difficult for her to even reach the island.”
The female celebrity’s manager did not say anything, as if she was seriously considering this matter.
“Cough, cough, cough…”
Tony coughed a few times. “Since you’ve all agreed, I’ll say a few more words. I hope the three of you can protect our Li Chenxing. If he’s even slightly injured, the few of you will have to bear responsibility.”
“That’s too much.” Niu Dongliang said.
“No one can guarantee that they can escape unscathed if they participate in such a show. We can’t guarantee that.”
“But I called the three of you here to do this. Do you think the money is for nothing?” Tony said arrogantly.
The sarcastic tone in particular gave Lin Yi goosebumps.
“Where are you going?” Yan Ci asked when he saw Lin Yi get up.
“My stomach is a little uncomfortable. I want to vomit.”
“Huh? Are you feeling unwell?”
“A little.” Lin Yi turned around and left. “Call me only once you figure out what’s going on next time. Don’t waste my time.”
“Well…”
“Wait a minute!”
Just as Lin Yi was about to leave, Li Chenxing stopped him from behind.
“Are you calling me a jerk?”
Wu Wenshu looked up at Lin Yi. What was wrong with this person?
Why did he have to be so rude?
“You look familiar,” Li Chenxing said. “Are you the streamer from Douyu, Brother Mask?”
“That’s Lin Yi?” Tony said in surprise.
Tony had learned about Lin Yi’s situation when he was negotiating with Douyu, so he knew his name.
“It looks like him,” Li Chenxing said. “I saw him on his live stream back when he was helping farmers.”
