Chapter 382: Chapter 382: Signing Up for a Survival Reality Show, Are You Asking for Death?

After sending Liu Suqing home, Jiang Li went to a bookstore in the city center.

Just when she had picked out a few books and was preparing to settle down for a good read, her phone began to vibrate like crazy.

It was a flood of messages from the "Labor Team"group—

Qi Tianyu: !!! Damn, Sister Li, when did you secretly sign up for another variety show?! And it’s Director Zheng’s "Wilderness Survival 30 Days"?!

Wen Jiaojiao: ??? What’s going on?

Qi Tianyu: The guest list posted by the Wilderness Survival crew on Weibo, and Sister Li is the first one!

Wen Jiaojiao: ??? Damn, Lili, do you have a death wish???

He Yun chimed in: This show is too dangerous, Jiang Li, think about it once more.

Shu Yan: Yeah, Lili, are you short on money? That shouldn’t be, Golden Sand is making good money, right?

Jiang Yan: ??? What the heck? Jiang Li, you’re in a reality show? Why didn’t you bring me along?!

Qi Tianyu: ?

Qi Tianyu: Brother Yan, your name is the second line.

Jiang Yan: ?

Shu Yan: Okay, we can now rule out the possibility of a namesake coincidence.

Looking at the barrage of messages popping up, Jiang Li frowned slightly. ƒreewebηoveℓ.com

"Wilderness Survival 30 Days"?

When did she sign up for this variety show?

Feeling quite baffled, Jiang Li opened Weibo only to discover that the related hashtag had already topped the trending list and become a sensation, with the news of her participation following closely as the second most trending topic.

Her inbox was already overwhelmed with various private messages and @mentions, and the fan club group was full of people shouting and yelling.

Lei Ting: My god, Sister Li, how did you suddenly end up on this variety show? I was so startled.

Chui’er Tuttu: Lili, be careful, this variety show is really dangerous.

West District Boss: Sister, if you’re short of money, just tell me. My dad is rich!

Jiang Li: "..."

Is this variety show really that suspenseful?

Driven by curiosity, she began to search and read news articles about the variety show.

"Wilderness Survival 30 Days" was a series that had launched its first season two years ago.

The filming location was a primordial forest in the Northwest. The program adopted a method of voluntary enrollment, filtering through layers of selections and ultimately sending 50 people in.

If anyone could successfully survive at the designated location for 30 days without quitting, they would win a grand prize of two hundred million along with a series of enviable resources provided by the sponsors.

The substantial rewards had drawn countless of applicants.

When the plan for the first season was released, the number of sign-ups even reached three to four million, and on the first day of broadcasting, it set a record of ten million online viewers, momentarily becoming the hottest variety show across all major platforms.

However, what nobody expected was the survival reality show’s level of danger was far beyond their initial expectations.

Each guest who went there had to sign a life-and-death agreement, thereafter spending the entire 30 days fending for themselves in the primordial forest.

Some people gave up in less than a day.

Others gritted their teeth and persisted, only to be carried out on a stretcher, horrifically disfigured at the end.

Some even vanished completely, without a trace.

Only then did netizens realize just how terrifying this variety show was, making frantic calls to report it, but the director countered by throwing the agreement the guests had signed in their faces, effectively shutting up the complaints. Later, he even upgraded the game mode, plunging the participants into a so-called "hell mode".

As a result, Zheng Xun, who was the chief director, earned himself the nickname King Zheng, and this variety show became the only legendary broadcast in the history of live variety shows, raking in various awards.

After the program ended, numerous netizens fell into a profound void lacking any substitute, eagerly urging Zheng Xun to start preparing for the second season.

"But two years had passed, and Zheng Xun and his team behind the scenes hadn’t made a single move.

Just when netizens thought that the legendary variety show would never be filmed again due to its danger, a month ago, ’Wilderness Survival 30 Days’ suddenly posted a registration link on their official Weibo.

Just one link caused an uproar across the entire internet.

More importantly, the main investor was still the media titan, Chang’an Media. Whoever won the championship and became the survival king would gain access to all the resources offered by Chang’an Media.

The prize money had even increased to a staggering five hundred million yuan!

What kind of concept was that?

Once someone got that five hundred million, they wouldn’t have to worry about their next life or the life after that!

Therefore, within ten minutes of the link being posted, the server had crashed.

Not long after, Zheng Xun posted a personal tweet:

’[This time, the survival challenge will take place on a deserted island, and both the format and the challenges have been upgraded.]’

Just a simple sentence made millions of netizens’ backs tingle.

They then remembered the group who had been carried out of the primordial forest two years ago, barely alive.

Thus, quite a few people calmed down and exited the registration page.

Joking aside, what good would that five hundred million do if you ended up dead and couldn’t spend it?

Therefore, compared to the explosive registration of the first season, the number of applicants for the second season had drastically dropped to just over six hundred thousand.

Finally, the production team successfully selected fifty contestants and posted the list of participants on Weibo.

Seeing all those familiar names, the netizens could no longer keep their cool.

’[Am I seeing things? Jiang Li? She’s really going on a survival show?!]’

’[I acknowledge Sister Li’s strength, but Jiang Yan... is he just there to make up the numbers?]’

’[Damn it, it took me forever to decide to apply, and I didn’t even get selected!]’

’[Holy shit, Third Master, the survival king from last season, is also in it! This season seems like it’ll be even more exciting than the last one!]’

’[Mother of god, they’re starting to shoot next month, and they’re not even giving people time to train? King Zheng is getting more ruthless.]’

After browsing through these, Jiang Li’s eyebrows relaxed.

She thought it was going to be something big, but it was just a small variety show.

She decided to finish reading her book first.

...

When she left the bookstore, it was already evening.

Over the afternoon, her phone had accumulated a few hundred messages and dozens of calls, from Qi Tianyu and others, as well as from Shen Lan and others—it seemed they had all seen the news on Weibo.

Jiang Li found a nearby coffee shop, sat down, and started returning the calls one by one.

She first reassured Lin Manru and the others before comforting Wen Jiaojiao and her group.

Glancing at the contact labeled "Jiang Yan" in big red letters, Jiang Li quickly skipped over it and dialed Shen Lan’s number instead.

The phone rang for two seconds before being picked up, Shen Lan’s voice clearly filled with anxiety.

’My goodness, why did you just pick up?’

Jiang Li responded calmly, ’I was just finishing a book. What’s wrong?’

’What’s wrong??? Didn’t you see Weibo?’

’I saw it.’

Shen Lan took a deep breath.

Before, she only thought Jiang Li was emotionally stable, but she hadn’t realized she was this unnervingly calm.

’Why did you suddenly sign up for "Wilderness Survival"? Do you know how dangerous that show is? Zheng Xun is a madman! The investors behind him are immensely powerful and terrifying, isn’t a young girl like you entering this variety show just like a lamb walking into a tiger’s den?’
