"Director, our ratings are high enough, there's no need to invite a star to stir up the heat. The staff all persuaded Director He of the program group like this.

But Director He kept frowning and didn't speak, the Demon King Challenge was a task assigned from above. With the joining of celebrities, he was originally very happy, but the current situation made him very difficult.

Because just now, he informed the contestants that he would add a game of the Demon King Challenge in the next issue, and when he learned that the contestant who came to challenge was a star in the entertainment industry, the contestants protested. Some even suggested that if they had to play an extra game, they would announce their withdrawal.

Brainstorming is different from other programs, in order to ensure the authenticity of the program, it takes the form of live broadcasting. If the contestant withdraws in the middle of the competition, then the later program will not be able to continue.

The current Director He can be said to be in a dilemma.

"I understand, but I also want to add another fire to our show. ”

It's just that this fire is really hard to add, and if it is good, it would be strange.

"Director He, why don't we talk to the leader again. We also have to take care of the emotions of these players. Now in the entertainment industry, it is difficult to find one that can convince this group of people. ”

is different from ordinary puzzle shows, the biggest gimmick of their show is this group of geniuses with superior IQ ability. And since they can be called geniuses, their abilities are naturally far beyond ordinary people, so they are inevitably a little arrogant. When they were notified that they were going to add a Demon King Challenge, they were originally very excited, but when they heard that the Demon King of the challenge was an actor, they instantly changed their faces, which meant that the program team was insulting their IQ.

But Director He also has his own considerations. When he received the notice from above, he personally reviewed Xu You's qualifications, at least he was a true scholar. Moreover, the notice he received was to let him carry it out, not to consider it.

"So decide. You go and tell those people that this show is not something they can come and go when they want to, we signed a contract when we were selected, and the Demon King challenge is imperative, as for who Xu You chooses to challenge in the end, then it will be up to her to choose, they are nothing more than afraid that we will make small moves behind our backs, you tell them, what we can guarantee is that there is absolutely no shady. ”

"Okay, Director He!"

Seeing that the director's attitude is so resolute, it is difficult for others to dissuade him.

After receiving the official notice from the crew, Zhou Hui called Xu Deshui and told him to go to the scene to cheer himself up.

"What are you going to do?" Xu Deshui looked inexplicable, "Don't want to be a star anymore?"

"That's not true, I just found a platform where I can show off my IQ. Zhou Hui smiled very proudly.

Xu Deshui: "What did those children do wrong?"

"You can form a cheerleader squad for me, and when the time comes, talk to your brother and arrange for you to sit in the front row. ”

“…… Wait, are you serious?"

"Of course. ”

Xu Deshui was silent.

"Don't worry, I'm sure. Zhou Hui comforted.

The corners of Xu Deshui's mouth twitched: I'm not worried about you, bastard!

After all......

According to the original plan, after the preliminary round, the week should be rested.

But because of the exception of Zhou Hui, the program team issued a notice two days before the live broadcast that there will be a big demon king to kick the hall this week. Therefore, despite the reluctance of the contestants, Zhou Hui finally got on the stage as he wished.

And, as the only big demon king, choose three out of twenty players to complete the challenge. The twenty defenders are all selected from the top domestic brain players and left to the last group.

The competition topics are randomly selected from the brainstorming question bank by the guests on the spot.

The Grand Demon King must defeat all three defenders in order to succeed in the challenge.

Of course, in order to ensure fairness, the Great Demon King has one chance to avoid mistakes compared to the Gatekeeper, which the Gatekeeper does not.

"Are you all ready?"

Director He seriously went back and forth to do the last check at the show site, the show was live, so there could be no mistakes, and the requirements for the host's rhythm were also extremely high.

"Everybody's ready. Director, take a sip of tea and rest for a while, there will be no time when the live broadcast starts. The assistant handed over his thermos cup.

"Well, thank you, Little Lu. Director He's expression softened a little.

"Director, who do you say, who will be chosen to challenge Zhou Hui today?"

After thinking about it carefully, Director He said cautiously: "The overall strength of these twenty players is very strong, but the fields they are good at are very different, for example, Deng Xingying is good at spatial sense, Chen Chao has excellent hearing, Zeng Qian's quick calculation, and Jia Jin's memory. ”

Director He never thought that Xu You would win. In a competition like this, a star like Xu You comes to challenge, and the chance of winning is very small, after all, the gatekeepers in the show are all top geniuses in China, and Xu You can learn to be a bully as long as he guarantees that he doesn't lose too ugly in a game. And the program team, although he tried his best to ensure fairness with the contestants, but in the face of such a huge disparity in strength, he had already passed the anger with the older contestants and released the water appropriately, as long as he ensured that Xu Yu would not lose too ugly.

Xiao Lu said regretfully: "That Xu You, in fact, her educational background seems to be quite good, but to challenge three players with outstanding strength, it seems that she will go down after a passing scene." ”

When Director He heard this, he nodded in agreement: "You are right." Xu You was parachuted, and we don't know anything about her strength except for her educational background. But don't take it too seriously, after all, the difficulty of our show is obvious to all. ”

So in Director Ding's expectations, Xu You estimated that he would lose three games in a row, and then he would be able to get a boxed lunch.

As they spoke, the contestants were in place and the show had officially begun.

Sure enough, the promotional gimmick of the show of new stars vs brain geniuses aroused great interest from the audience. As soon as the live broadcast began, the ratings skyrocketed.

So no matter what the outcome is, the plan designated by the above to let Xu Yu parachute is quite successful.

Twenty gatekeepers were already seated on the high platform, and the momentum was menacing.

"Today is the Demon King Overtime after the preliminary round of our brainstorming, and since it is the Demon King Challenge, of course, the rules are different from the past and make it more challenging. So we have a special challenger today—"

"I'm sure you've all seen the announcement before and know the identity of our challenger on today's show, but who is it? Let's reveal it now! Welcome to our challenger today, Xu You—"

The moving screen in the middle of the stage gradually opened, and Zhou Hui, who was wearing a light coffee suit, walked out, his dress today was neutral, combing his long hair into a hanging ponytail, raising his eyebrows and eyes, with his serious expression, but there was a feeling of abstinence.
