Chapter 114 First Appearance
Nazha and Yang Zi went to collect dried grass.
Wu Tao, Chen He, and Sun Hao, each carrying an axe, headed towards the nearby woods.
The survival program team of Donghai TV had already set up many cameras in advance in the area where they were active.
In addition, each camera has a prominent yellow marking, so that people can avoid some embarrassing scenes being broadcast live.
Everyone has been in front of television viewers since they entered the island, and all three groups are now being watched by the audience.
The production team occasionally splits the camera into four shots, which can observe the group footage of the three groups or focus on a member who performs exceptionally well.
The broadcast of the scene of Wu Tao climbing a tree to cut coconuts also gave many viewers a deeper impression of this taciturn veteran.
Everyone has just arrived on the island, so the differences aren't that significant.
There weren't many funny scenes until Wu Tao started chopping down the tree, at which point the audience gasped in amazement once again.
Wu Tao chopped a halfway through a tree that would take an adult two arms to encircle.
After a few more blows, the gap widened. Wu Tao called to Chen He, and Sun Hao told them to move aside.
"Bang"
"Click"
"Thump"
Wu Tao kicked down, and the tree slowly tilted and then fell to the side.
"Alright, you two, take them back."
"Wow, my brother is amazing!"
Chen He gave a thumbs up, confirming his guess was right; Wu Tao was indeed a genius.
It's springtime now, so everyone is wearing less clothing.
Wu Tao then felled more than a dozen large trees. Because it was too hot, Wu Tao took off his shirt, revealing an olive-colored vest underneath.
At this time, all three groups were doing various odd jobs, but Wu Tao was definitely the most eye-catching.
Even the production team focused their cameras on Wu Tao, from his continuous tree-cutting to the final kick.
Wu Tao has been in the world for several months now. He was originally a retired soldier, and with his recent training in Baduanjin (Eight Pieces of Brocade), his physique is particularly outstanding.
Standing at 1.8 meters tall, with muscles all over his body, he wasn't a gym burly guy, but rather the kind of muscular man with beautifully defined lines.
Not only were the male viewers in front of the TV envious, but the female viewers were also staring intently at Wu Tao's upper body, their mouths drooling without them even realizing it.
Wu Tao has a delicate and refined appearance; if you were to lose him in a crowd, he would just be an average handsome guy.
But Wu Tao, shirtless, is a completely different person. He exudes sexual tension, which is especially true for mature women, for whom a pretty face is worthless.
Only someone like Wu Tao, who appears refined on the surface but possesses an inner strength so formidable it inspires fear, is more likely to win their favor.
The program team made the voting channel public to the audience, and each person had their own number.
Wu Tao came in second in Group 3, with the number 302, while Chen He came in first in Group 3, with the number 301.
Wang Baoqiang was the first in Group Two, and his number was clearly 201.
Voting will close one week after the survival team lands on the island.
Viewers will observe the actions of the three groups over a week to determine the final winner.
Voting is divided into two categories: group and individual. Each person can cast two votes, one for the group and one for the individual.
Only if the group you vote for wins, and the individual who voted wins, will they be included in the prize pool of ten million.
Wu Tao's first appearance, featuring two outstanding actions—climbing a tree to pick coconuts and cutting down a tree—immediately earned him the top spot in the audience vote.
The television station will also update the voting rankings and vote counts in real time.
Wu Tao currently has 2,123,641 votes. This means that two million people voted for Wu Tao, believing he can persevere to the end.
It's morning now, and up to tens of millions of viewers are watching the show. One-fifth of them voted for Wu Tao, which shows how much people think highly of him.
It's not that the audience lacks patience, but rather that the prize redemption rules have a weighting system where the earlier you vote, the more prize money you receive.
Of course, the downside is that if you miss out on other seeded players, you will directly lose the chance to win a prize.
This forces the audience to have no extra time to think or make a choice.
If it really lasts a week, everyone will see things very clearly. The reason we had you guessing during that self-organized session was to use uncertainty to create excitement and suspense.
The contestant you voted for first might leave the island a few days later. The contestant least favored by everyone might end up being the survivor.
It's like a tortoise race; it's a long race that lasts a month, and no one can guarantee what will happen the next day.
Wu Tao, Chen He, Sun Hao, and the others went back and forth several times before finally managing to drag the dozen or so large trees to the big rock.
Wu Tao himself did not feel tired. As soon as he returned to the camp, he began to prune the trees.
First, remove all branches and leaves, and sharpen the bottom of the tree into a pointed shape so that it can be planted directly into the soil later.
With the large rock behind you, build a triangular house in front of you. The large rock is side a of the triangle; now you only need to build the wooden walls on sides b and c.
Of course, three wooden posts will be erected on side a as anchor points, and four wooden posts will be erected on sides b and c respectively.
A hacksaw cuts wood into long planks, hollows out the middle, and inserts them into upright round logs to form roof beams.
Wu Tao, a level 8 fitter, automatically became a level 5 carpenter. Making a fine set of furniture is quite difficult, much like setting up a temporary campsite right now—it's not an easy task.
Once the main structure of the house was erected, Wu Tao dismantled the tent, covered the roof with tarpaulin, and kept the remaining tent ropes for later use.
"Chen He, Sun Hao, let's go outside and find some vines. As long as we wrap the area around the house with vines, it will protect it from wind and rain."
Chen He and Sun Hao were stunned by Wu Tao's abilities. When Nazha and Yang Zi returned and saw that their camp had taken shape in just one morning, they were also excited and shouted.
Wu Tao, Chen He, and Sun Hao went outside to find those vines that had been growing for who knows how many years.
They cut the vines with knives, and each person dragged dozens of kilograms of vines back to the camp.
After the vines were tied up, only a gap 50 centimeters wide and 2 meters high was left.
Wu Tao then cut down a large tree, sawed it into planks, made a simple wooden door, and installed it. A perfectly fitted wooden house was then completed.
The wooden house occupies an area of about 20 square meters, and a layer of wooden planks is laid on the ground along the side of the large rock.
Nazha and Yang Zi put the collected dried grass on the wooden board so that everyone could sleep on it.
To separate men and women, there was a simple wooden partition in the middle.
It's really just a formality, since the production crew will be coming over later to install cameras in the cabin.
The camera is always on during the day, but you can cover the lens with your clothes before going to sleep at night.
There's really nothing wrong with that; the main thing is that female celebrities don't want their embarrassing sleeping moments broadcast.
If a group of people were together, probably no one would dare to be so audacious as to do anything reckless.
