Emergency meeting of the program team.

After listening to Lin Yuan's analysis, everyone present was stunned.

They swallowed uncontrollably, as if looking at a monster.

Isn't that too exaggerated?

You understand bombs, and you can even tell the bomb's model and its detailed information?

Even Li Team, who frequently deals with bombs, couldn't explain it.

Doesn't that mean you are more professional than the professionals?

Please!! You are a real estate agent!!

A house seller!

Those who didn't know would think you used to sell bombs!

However, despite the shock, what Lin Yuan said was perfectly sound and well-reasoned.

Although Director Yang and others didn't understand what a dynamic fuse meant, they could roughly grasp that this bomb could not be moved.

Such a large bomb, if it were to be moved, definitely couldn't rely on manpower alone.

Some large machinery would certainly be needed.

But the problem is, during the process of moving with large machinery, collisions and other dangers are inevitable.

Even if it's safely moved onto a vehicle, it would still need to be transported out of the city.

With all the bumps along the way, who can guarantee it won't explode?

It's better to be safe than sorry!

We can't just clear out everyone in the city, can we?

The loss and cost would be too great.

We can't afford to gamble!

As for disarming the bomb, even Director Yang, who didn't understand it, knew that was even more impossible.

Generally, when a bomb alert is received, whether it's the Hazardous Explosives Team or the Experts, the first solution is to find a place to detonate it, not to disarm it.

Bombs are not like what's shown on TV, where disarming them is easy and relaxed.

This thing, if you're not careful, can take lives.

Furthermore, looking at the rust on the outside of this bomb, it's clear the bomb is severely oxidized, and who knows what it looks like inside.

Ordinary tools can't open it; it can only be cut with a cutting machine.

Cutting a bomb with a cutting machine? Are you crazy?!

After such a detailed analysis, it suddenly became clear why Lin Yuan suggested detonating it on the spot; it seemed this path was the safest.

But this was still too unbelievable.

Recalling how they were just trying to convince Lin Yuan, saying he might not be very professional.

Now, it's a direct slap in the face.

Can this still be called unprofessional?

Li Team looked at Lin Yuan with a wry smile: "When did you realize the bomb couldn't be moved?"

Lin Yuan gave an awkward smile: "Just now..."

Hearing this, Li Team shook his head helplessly; he knew Lin Yuan definitely wasn't telling the truth, just being modest.

However, now was not the time to dig deeper.

Although Lin Yuan's reminder helped them avoid a huge crisis, another new headache appeared.

Such a large bomb, if detonated on the spot, the consequences would be unimaginably vast.

How exactly should it be detonated to minimize the damage!

If it were handled as previously planned, by moving the bomb and then detonating it, the Hazardous Explosives Team could handle it alone.

But now, with on-site detonation, they certainly couldn't manage it by themselves.

To solve this headache, Li Team suggested that Director Yang call all the Experts in West Sea City and also invite demolition professionals from the military to discuss how to detonate it.

Director Yang also knew the seriousness of the matter, nodded solemnly, and picked up his phone to start contacting people.

At the same time, the program group's office building was also in chaos.

This was because the network department's supervisor had reported several pieces of information to the management in quick succession.

"Manager, Lin Yuan dug up a bomb during his live broadcast, and it exploded!"

"Manager, something big happened, Lin Yuan dug up a 1000-kilogram aerial bomb!"

"Manager, Lin Yuan's live broadcast is detonating a bomb!"

"Manager, the live stream's popularity has already exceeded one million!"

"Manager..."

In the meeting room of the program group's building, the manager sat at the head of the table, leading a group of management watching the live broadcast on the big screen, their eyes unblinking.

The manager looked at Lin Yuan on the screen, a wry smile involuntarily appearing at the corner of his mouth.

The incident of catching a murderer during a live broadcast just ended yesterday, and I thought you could finally take a break today, but you're immediately causing trouble again.

You sell houses, just sell houses, but you go and help people operate an excavator, and even if you operate it, you dig up a big treasure!

You scare people to death without paying for it, right!

Recently, he hasn't been sleeping well.

On one hand, the program's explosion in popularity due to Lin Yuan's immense popularity kept him too busy, and on the other hand, he was constantly on edge, fearing that one day he'd wake up and the program would be shut down.

Looking at the continuously increasing popularity in the upper right corner of the live stream, the manager's mood was both melancholy and excited.

One million!!

A full one million!

Who would have thought that Lin Yuan, in less than a week, could grow from an unknown newcomer to this extent.

With his current assets and popularity, he has already far surpassed the second-place contestant by a huge margin.

Barring any accidents, the championship of the competition is already firmly in his grasp.

However, at the moment, a new problem has emerged.

Lin Yuan's popularity is too high.

Higher than they initially expected.

It should be known that the program group's server has a traffic limit. When the platform was initially created, they considered that some contestants might become explosively popular, so they specifically invested heavily in the server.

Facts have proven that this measure was correct.

Because of Lin Yuan's unexpected surge in popularity, the overall popularity of the entire program significantly increased, far exceeding the initial expectations.

So the platform has remained very stable until now.

But today!

The manager panicked.

Lin Yuan's live stream attracted hundreds of thousands of viewers in just a few hours.

The live streaming platform's server pressure instantly reached the red line zone.

If this continues, the server might actually crash.

For this reason, the manager specifically called everyone for a meeting to discuss how to handle this matter.

The moment the management team saw the popularity of Lin Yuan's live stream, they were all shocked and gasped.

The manager looked at everyone and asked calmly, "Everyone has seen it, right? Lin Yuan's live stream popularity broke through 1 million this afternoon!"

"When our program group was first established, we anticipated that the most popular contestant might reach 1 million viewers by the end of the program, but it broke 1 million in less than a week."

"I have a premonition that this is definitely not the peak. Looking at their stance, it's very likely they will detonate the bomb live, and at that time, the live stream's popularity will inevitably surge even further."

"The current problem is that the server capacity is almost at its limit. If it continues to rise, I'm worried the server might crash. But it's definitely too late to temporarily expand the server. I plan to, if necessary, close other contestants' live streams to stabilize the server!"

Whoosh~~

As soon as these words were spoken, the audience instantly erupted in an uproar.

Everyone was stunned.

They never expected the manager to drop such a bombshell right away.

Closing other contestants' live streams, just for Lin Yuan alone?

Is there such a necessity?

Although Lin Yuan is very popular, no matter how popular he is, one person cannot compare to the other contestants in the top ten, let alone the popularity of all 100 contestants in the entire program group.

If other contestants' live streams were shut down because of him, the consequence would be complaints from millions of viewers.

This... is it really worth it?!

So, shortly after the manager finished speaking, someone immediately stood up to object.

"Manager, I don't support this idea. I don't deny that Lin Yuan is very popular, but doing this will lose a lot of fans. What will the supporters of other contestants think? At that time, a single spit from each of them could drown us."

"I also object! I can still distinguish between 1 million and several million in popularity. If Lin Yuan's live stream really causes a crash, then I'd rather shut his down!"

"That's right, Manager, I think you're being a bit overly worried. 1 million popularity is already high enough; it's unlikely to go much higher. We don't need to be concerned about this."

The manager sat in his chair, listening to the various opinions from the management below, his mood sinking little by little, and his expression also slightly unpleasant.

He didn't want to listen anymore.

He stood up abruptly and slapped both hands on the table.

Clap~~

This sound immediately startled the noisy crowd, and the scene instantly fell silent.

The manager looked at everyone and spoke sternly: "Everyone, I find that you still haven't distinguished between the major and minor issues!"

"Let me ask you first, why has our program's popularity surged recently, its overall visibility rapidly increased, and advertisements poured in? What is all of this due to?"

"Don't tell me it's because of our hard work, because we did a good job!"

"Wrong! Terribly wrong!"

"It's because of Lin Yuan!!"

"Network Department Head, tell everyone where the program group's traffic has really come from recently."

Hearing the manager's call, the Network Department Head quickly stood up and explained: "According to data statistics, compared to the first two days of broadcasting, the entire platform's popularity has increased by more than 2 million."

"Among them, Lin Yuan alone accounted for more than 1 million, and the other 1 million, from data monitoring, mostly flowed from Lin Yuan's live stream to other contestants."

Whoosh~~

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire room vibrated!

Everyone was stunned.

In the past few days, because of the program group's explosive popularity, the company's management was full of vigor.

They originally thought it was their own credit and good promotion.

But now they learned that all this surging popularity came from Lin Yuan.

This, this, this...

Almost everyone couldn't help but gasp, their faces solemn.

Too exaggerated!

Seeing this, the manager continued: "Did you hear that! Our success is not because of our efforts, but because of Lin Yuan!"

"I hope all of you realize one thing, and that is, Lin Yuan is no longer just a simple contestant in our program group."

"According to unofficial sources, other variety shows are already planning to heavily recruit Lin Yuan as soon as the competition ends, to tailor a reality show for him. Even more exaggerated, some people are planning to directly offer 100 million to poach Lin Yuan!"

Hiss~~~

Hearing this, everyone couldn't sit still. Their eyes widened as they looked at the manager, their faces full of shock.

"Very exaggerated, right?"

"But I tell you very clearly, he is worth it!!"

"He can rely on his own efforts to achieve over a million popularity in just one week, and he can thrive in any variety show he goes to."

"But if he leaves, what about us? What will be our consequence?"

"The platform will instantly lose over 2 million in popularity, perhaps even more than we can imagine!"

"With this ebb and flow, we can only watch others rise while we decline."

"At that time, those of you sitting here, if you were to go back to now, would you still dare to say you want to close his live stream?"
