Rewind the clock to a quarter of an hour ago.

Shen Zhengyuan was carrying the air hammer given by the production team, and was looking for the co-actors all over the building.

In fact, this thing is strange to say, obviously Shen Zhengyuan was still thinking about doing a low-key task a second ago and hiding his identity as a secret spy, but the next second he jumped up and down and began to find people, for fear that others would not be able to see him.

Of course, from the perspective of other people's program groups, this is the most normal thing.

The show "Running Man" has been out for many years, and many link designs have basically formed a fixed routine model, and as the show grows older, the production team is also very clear that the simple tearing of the brand can no longer satisfy the audience's appetite, especially in recent years, various types of variety shows have sprung up.

Among them, Shen Zhengyuan's Al Jazeera has also made a lot of efforts.

"Running Man" is a variety show that is rapidly changing, and it can actually be called an old variety show.

In order to capture the increasingly tricky audience's appetite, under the circumstance that the overall framework of the program cannot be revised, such a small change in the task link is also the limit of what the production team of "Running Man" can do.

From the initial pursuit battle, to the later bells, tearing off the brand-name spy war, "Running Man" has undergone a series of transformations, and it has also become more and more popular with these changes.

It's just that even if you think about the surging creativity, there will be a day when you run out, although it is not so obvious now, but it is the general feeling of the audience of the show that the show is not as interesting as in the past in recent times.

However, having said so much, in fact, the quality of "Running Man" does not matter much to Shen Zhengyuan.

SBS's variety shows don't need him to care about the president of another station.

I walked around the first floor for a while with an air hammer in my hand, but I never touched anyone.

Shen Zhengyuan wondered for a while whether he was lucky or unlucky.

After running back and forth for a while, but the task was delayed, Shen Zhengyuan began to wonder if he should go to other floors to have a look. The filming site of the final mission is a seven-story building with six floors above ground and one floor underground, and Shen Zhengyuan has been running back and forth on the first floor for a period of time so far, whether it is doing tasks or looking for people, except for Liu Zaishi who met at the beginning, he has not met with other performers again.

"Looks like we'll have to go to the other buildings. ”

made a decision in his heart, Shen Zhengyuan did not forget to explain to the camera lens of shooting himself, the most taboo thing about shooting alone is a headless action, not only is it difficult for the production team to deal with it, but it will also cause certain difficulties in editing during post-production, or if you encounter trouble that you dislike, you can simply cut it out and not use it.

Walking into the elevator and looking at the buttons on each floor inside, Shen Zhengyuan didn't have too much entanglement, and directly pressed a fifth floor.

As far as the current situation is concerned, no one knows whose position, in fact, the upper layer is the same.

While waiting for the elevator to go up, Shen Zhengyuan did not forget the existence of the camera, and analyzed to the camera: "At present, the most important thing is to get the ratings first, and then find a computer that can use the USB flash drive......"

The USB flash drive obtained in the first game was obviously a mission-critical prop, and Shen Zhengyuan naturally couldn't ignore it.

"After the ratings reach five percent, the next step is whether it is the elimination mission of the secret spy or the ......"

As he was talking, the elevator door that had been slowly rising suddenly opened on the third floor, and then a pretty white and tender face appeared in front of Shen Zhengyuan's eyes.

"Ji-eun xi?!"

"Shen Zhengyuan xi!?"

At the moment of unexpectedly encountering, the two people inside and outside the elevator looked surprised.

However, soon, Li Zhien's eyes noticed the conspicuous pink air hammer in Shen Zhengyuan's hand, and instinctively felt that something was wrong, and her experience as a past actor in "Running Man" made her start running almost without thinking.

"Eh, wait a minute, Ji-eun xi!"

Seeing that Li Zhien ran away without even saying hello, Shen Zhengyuan was a little speechless, but thinking of the ratings task in his hand, he finally met the actor, Shen Zhengyuan naturally couldn't miss it like this, so when he saw Li Zhien running away, he also hurriedly chased him out of the elevator, and chased after him in the direction of Li Zhien's escape.

"I'm not trying to tear up your name tag, I just want to complete a mission with you!"

"Ah~"

In the case of running and chasing, it naturally created an illusion for Li Zhien who escaped, that is, Shen Zhengyuan was clearly coming at herself, so no matter what Shen Zhengyuan was shouting behind her, she became more and more hardworking.

"I am. Seeing that the more he shouted in front of him, the faster Li Zhien ran, Shen Zhengyuan was suddenly a little speechless, gritted his teeth and didn't say anything anymore, let's chase after it first.

simply, as a little girl, no matter how hard Li Zhien runs, he can't compete with Shen Zhengyuan in terms of physical strength, and he was finally caught up by Shen Zhengyuan after running for hundreds of meters in a row.

"Don't, Shen Zhengyuanxi, I was just about to start the task, and I didn't find anything. Li Zhien shrank in the corner and looked at Shen Zhengyuan with a pitiful and helpless expression: "You can let me go this time." ”

Why do you feel like I'm a bad guy all of a sudden?

Looking at Li Zhien with a pitiful face, Shen Zhengyuan complained a little speechless in his heart at the moment, although from the perspective of a secret spy, it is completely reasonable to tear off Li Zhien's name tag in this situation, but the game has just begun, and it is still a little too risky to tear off the name tag right now, not to mention that the ratings task in his hand is still waiting for someone to cooperate with him, so Shen Zhengyuan immediately said: " When did I say I was going to tear up your name tag, it was obviously Ji Eun Xi who ran away as soon as you saw me, so I didn't even have time to speak. ”

"Because Shen Zhengyuan xi you have an air hammer in your hand, that's why I did. Seeing that Shen Zhengyuan didn't come to tear himself up immediately, Li Zhien also reacted a little, as if he was making a fuss.

"The air hammer is made because of the ratings mission. ”

"Ratings mission?"

"That's right, Ji-eunxi, let's rock-paper-scissors. Nodding, Shen Zhengyuan didn't go around the bend, but mentioned it to Li Zhien directly.

……

"Shen Zhengyuan, with a rating of 3%, is currently ranked first~"

A quarter of an hour later.

Shen Zhengyuan listened to the voice announced on the radio in the building, turned his head and smiled at Li Zhien in front of him with a smug face: "Thank you, Zhienxi." ”

"Hmph, Shen Zhengyuanxi, I will definitely take revenge on this hammer!" Li Zhien touched his head and said to Shen Zhengyuan with an unhappy expression.

Shen Zhengyuan obviously had already collected his strength when he hit it, so it didn't hurt to hit the head with the air hammer, but this sense of punishment made Li Zhien extremely unhappy, and he suddenly shouted with some half-serious and half-variety show effect.

"Okay, I'll wait. ”

The little girl's vicious threat, instead of making Shen Zhengyuan feel scared, he felt a little cute, and he accepted it with a smile, and he didn't take it too seriously at all.

Shen Zhengyuan's indifferent appearance naturally provoked Li Zhien to be dissatisfied again.

"Chishi Town, which received 2% of the ratings, is currently ranked second. ”

"Gary, with a 3% rating, is currently number one. ”

"Song Ji-hyo, who received 2% of the ratings, is currently ranked second. ”

After completing the task and separating from Lee Ji-eun, it didn't take long for the building radio to broadcast the successful mission of the members of "Running Man" one after another. It can also be seen from here that Song Zhixiao and others, as veterans of "Running Man", are obviously quite good at doing tasks, and the reason why Shen Zhengyuan was able to occupy the first place for a short time was purely due to luck.

Thinking of this, most of the pride in Shen Zhengyuan's heart immediately dissipated, and the sense of oppression as a secret spy returned to him.

"Shen Zhengyuan xi!"

"Gwang-so Xi!"

On the fifth floor, in an inconspicuous corridor, Shen Zhengyuan finally met his long-disappeared secret spy partner Lee Kwang-so.

It's just that, compared to the beginning, Lee Kwang-so's appearance at the moment has obviously changed a lot, and he looks sweating profusely, as if he has just completed a fierce battle.

"Kwang-so, what's going on with you?"

Faced with Shen Zhengyuan's inquiry, Lee Kwang-so let out a long sigh and began to vomit bitter water.

Giraffe's series of complaints, summed up in fact, are actually very simple, it is the word unlucky, obviously the task has just begun, and he met the most dangerous ability Kim Jong Kook, and finally died nine times, but found the ratings task but accidentally failed, that is, after a period of hard work, he bothered to work hard but was stunned and didn't get anything.

In this regard, Shen Zhengyuan was also very helpless.

There are so many members of "Running Man", but this is his teammate who is a secret spy, so even if Lee Kwang-so is so weak, Shen Zhengyuan can only grit his teeth and accept it, but he has to encourage the giraffe who is a little depressed.

"Kwangsu Xi, the next time is when we should work hard, as long as we can collect five percent of the ratings, even the capable Kim Jong Kook is not our opponent at all. "For the first candidate to be eliminated in the ratings, Shen Zhengyuan has already had a certain number in his heart, that is, Kim Jong Kook, who is the most threatening to the task.

Obviously, Kim Jong Kook's advantage in the game of tearing off the name card is too strong, and he has become the public enemy of the remaining players, and even to put it mildly, the first candidate who wants to eliminate nine out of ten actors in the mission is Kim Jong Kook himself.

"I see, Kim Jong Kook, you wait for me!"

Lee Kwang-so's depression naturally couldn't be really low, so after hearing Shen Zhengyuan's comfort, he immediately cheered up, and also thought of shouting at Kim Jong Kook's name with a variety show effect: "I will definitely repay the humiliation you gave me." ”

After shouting the vow, the two began to bow their heads and muttered again.

After some discussion, the focus of the next task was determined.

First of all, the main thing is about the ratings, the production team has made it clear that the final task is to win the first 20% of the ratings. Whether it is Shen Zhengyuan as a spy or other members, as long as they can get 20% of the ratings, the mission will be considered successful.

Therefore, in order to achieve the final victory, as well as to prevent the other members from winning, the first thing that Shim Jung-won and Lee Kwang-so have to ensure is that they will not let other people's ratings reach 20 percent ahead of them. As long as there are signs of this, it is absolutely 100% tearing off the name brand without negotiation.

Fortunately, on this issue, the other co-actors are also on the same position as Shen Zhengyuan, so there is no big problem.

Immediately afterwards, there is the problem of USB flash drive.

Regarding this, in fact, Shen Zhengyuan already has a little eyebrows, that is, the hint he deceived when he met Liu Zaishi just now.

"Before, I exchanged clues with Liu Zaishixi, and he told me that the hint for the clues of the second mission was in the basement, so I suspected that I had to go to the basement to unlock the USB flash drive. Regarding the details of the exchange of clues between himself and Yoo Jae-seok, Shen Zhengyuan did not fully inform Lee Kwang-so, but wrote it off in a vague way.

In this regard, Lee Kwang-so did not pay much attention to this, but paid more attention to the clues given by Yoo Jae-seok.

"Judging from my experience of starring in "Running Man" for so many years, although Brother Zai Shi has already exchanged the clues with Shen Zhengyuanxi, it is definitely impossible to tell you all of them, it is possible to hide half of them or even give the clues directly, so instead of going to the basement to find clues that may not exist, it is better to go directly to Brother Zai Shi himself, maybe he has secretly looked at the clues, or he has already taken the clues. ”

I have to say that Lee Kwang-so's proposal as an experience of "Running Man" is completely correct, and Shen Zhengyuan can give Yoo Jae-seok fake clues, so why can't Yoo Jae-seok tell Shen Zhengyuan the fake clues.

Thinking about this, Shen Zhengyuan simply agreed to Lee Kwang-so's suggestion and went to Liu Zaishi first.

"Before that, though......"

……

"HAHA, which has an 8% rating, is currently ranked first. ”

In the building's broadcast, the ranking order of the ratings gets better almost every once in a while, but the ratings task prepared by the production team is not as simple as imagined, so even Ha Dongxun, who is now the number one, has not broken through to more than 10% in the ratings.

Of course, Shen Zhengyuan did not feel too relieved because of this, but the speed of looking for Liu Zaishi in his hands was even faster, because judging from the rules of the game prepared by the production team for the ratings competition, with the accumulation of ratings, it will definitely become a fierce brand-tearing mode, and by that time, the rate of rising ratings will definitely be several times faster than now.

Even, Haha, the number one with the highest ratings now, will become one of the objects of everyone's scramble to tear off the famous brand in a short time.
