93: Top Warrior! Emerge! (Two bonus chapters for the generous contributor 2223689760)
"Who is recording with the camera? Where is Brother Wo Zi?"
"Who is recording with the camera? Where is Brother Wo Zi?"
"Who is recording with the camera? Where is Brother Wo Zi?"
"Who is recording with the camera? Where is Brother Wo Zi?"
...Countless bullet chats repeated the same sentence. Dozens of lucky bags hung in the upper left corner of the livestream room, opening once every minute, with each bag containing 99,999 Dou-coin.
Participation condition: simply post a bullet chat comment to join.
At this moment, Gao Xiaofan's die-hard fan group had already exploded.
Nickname (Zhang Dali): "Did something happen to Brother Wo Zi?"
Online ID: "It's also possible he's fine. There's no voice, so this camera might just have been left behind."
Strong Hand Cracks Skull: "The Program Production Crew hasn't given an official response yet."
First-Class Competitive Fishing Master Yu Weibao (Li Yuer): "Let's mobilize the power of the fans."
Intentional Punch: "Everyone, take action."
After ten days of the show, Gao Xiaofan's follower count was no longer the initial 2 million, but a staggering 30 million.
Over 8,000 fan groups had been automatically created. Due to Gao Xiaofan's settings before the show, whenever a new fan group was established, several people from the die-hard fan group would be set as administrators.
So, these few people used their administrative privileges to pin an announcement to all members, constantly calling for fans to get involved in this incident.
Overnight, the entire internet was in an uproar, and it only intensified. The mysterious disappearance of the big influencer Brother Wo Zi, with 30 million fans, and the lack of any broadcast from the Program Production Crew, led even those who didn't follow the show to start paying attention.
Show Water Bright Mountain had truly become popular, but it was because a guest had met with an accident.
The Program Production Crew staff and guests who had evacuated to the small town also understood what had happened in Xiushui Village.
A debris flow!
A debris flow actually occurred in Annan City? Anyone with a slight understanding of geography was now filled with questions.
This was clearly unscientific~
But it happened, and it happened right beside them.
In the hotel meeting room, the big screen was displaying the footage from Gao Xiaofan's livestream room.
The Director of the Meteorological Bureau, the local Town Mayor, and the County Magistrate sat around the table smoking. From the Program Production Crew, Jing Yu, Qu Lang, and Cheng Yan sat to one side.
Cheng Yan stared with wide eyes and pounded the table. "When we were choosing the site, why was this never mentioned?"
"Now, after the fact, you're telling me that blasting the artificial lake damaged the mountain structure?"
The several people opposite him didn't speak, only sighing.
Jing Yu, sitting to the side, was distracted until her phone rang.
When Jing Yu saw the caller ID, her entire body tensed up.
"CEO You, yes, okay, okay, I understand."
Jing Yu looked at the people watching her and forced a smile.
"CEO You said he'll be here in half an hour."
The County Magistrate nodded.
"Sigh, the Mayor is also arriving soon. We'll discuss how to handle this accident then."
Qu Lang didn't give them any face and also pounded the table. "What accident? We don't even know if the person is alive or dead, and you're already defining it as an accident? The top priority is rescue!"
"Director Qu, in our small county, where would we have professional rescue tools? You know the situation in Xiushui; it's all mountain roads. Unless we use a helicopter now."
"The incident has already occurred. Objectively speaking, the current situation is already considered very good. It might not be pleasant to hear, but that's the reality."
The County Magistrate's words were logical and well-founded, leaving Director Qu speechless. He could only bury his head in his propped-up arms, feeling completely powerless.
Once a debris flow breaks out, rescue is basically out of the question. Maybe the waves of the debris flow weren't huge, but with the rocks mixed in the mud and the sheer force of the flow, how could anyone survive?
Cheng Yan sat to the side smoking, staring blankly at the footage on the screen.
The mud waves had already breached the earthen slopes and swept down. It was estimated that Xiushui Village was now a sea of mud. Fortunately, the tree where the camera was hung didn't seem to be affected. Although the lens kept shaking, it still displayed the scene of the natural disaster to the world.
Jing Yu was also looking at the images on the screen, her mind constantly racing with wild thoughts.
Sigh, it didn't break earlier or later, and the most critical thing is that we can't even turn off the livestream now. Unless the entire program segment is taken offline, but wouldn't that be the same as the Program Production Crew admitting they turned it off themselves?
*Zzt~*
A sound of static, the livestream cut out, and the screen went black.
Jing Yu stood up joyfully. It was good that it cut out.
As the Operations Director, how could she not know the importance of PR? Now that the livestream was cut, the heat would slowly die down. When the time came to issue an announcement, the problem would be solved.
Qu Lang and Cheng Yan, however, stood up with drastic changes in their expressions.
The two exchanged a glance. They seemed to have just seen Gao Xiaofan's fishing rod.
Not just the two of them, but in the bullet chats of the already black screen, messages were constantly flashing.
"Holy crap, I think I saw the tip of a rod! Was that a rod tip?"
"Brother Wo Zi isn't dead??? When are the rescuers being sent?"
"The person above is crazy. What about the rod? Should rescue personnel risk their lives just because of a rod?"
"Are you sick? Trees that big were snapped, and the small earthen slope was washed away. Do you think that rod tip in the lens, which lasted for a whole second, wouldn't break? Obviously, someone is holding the rod."
"You all have a point, but I just want to know!!! Why is Brother Wo Zi holding a rod!!! Is he fishing???"
In the noisy livestream room, the speed of the bullet chats suddenly slowed down. Yeah, how could anyone still be fishing at a time like this?
Cheng Yan and Qu Lang looked at the bullet chats and also sat down weakly. The bullet chats were right; it was impossible to still be fishing.
In the die-hard fan group.
Intentional Punch: "I'm quite close to Annan. I'll go over there."
The fan group was quiet for a moment, and then everyone couldn't help but speak up.
"Brother Quan, calm down. Let's wait for a professional rescue team."
"Brother Quan, don't be reckless right now!!!"
A minute later, Intentional Punch sent a voice message.
"Everyone should have seen the rod tip in the livestream room. Others might think it's an illusion, but I don't. We fished with Brother Wo Zi at the Tongzhen Reservoir. You saw it that time too. Wasn't it miraculous?"
"I would never think anything would happen to Brother Wo Zi, but I feel it's necessary for me to go pick him up. It's as simple as that."
"I like to be reckless because I don't need to use my brain, but that doesn't mean I don't have one."
"Wait for my news."
The voice message left everyone in the group dazed. Right, he's Young Master Zhao; does he need to play the game of social niceties with you? Does he need to play at calculations?
With his strength, being reckless is the simplest and most effective way!
Look at those final words, how domineering. For a moment, everyone was filled with anticipation.
Brother Wo Zi's number one general, out!
