Two days later.
It was the weekend.
On Weibo.
"There aren't any shows left to watch. Can anyone recommend one?"
"I don't have any recommendations. There hasn't been anything good to watch recently."
"Yeah, the variety shows these days are all the same."
"The domestic TV series aren't good either. They're all the same."
"I'm watching an American TV series right now. It's not bad."
"Yeah, the American and British TV series are all quite exquisite."
"There are a few foreign TV shows that are also not bad. They're really good to watch. When will our China get a show like that? That would be great!"
"Isn't Face-smacking Zhang going to make an international show?"
"I heard that they've already started recording."
"Yeah, I wonder how the filming is going."
"I'm looking forward to it."
"Do you guys really expect Face-smacking Zhang to bring China's shows to the world?"
"What else can they do? If he can't do it, then no one can. "
"Let's see if Face-smacking Zhang can perform another miracle!"
…
Beijing.
At the Xijiao Airport.
This was originally a military airport that was usually used for military use and also accepted aircraft support missions. But today, the Xijiao Airport received a temporary air route approval and a small civilian plane was allowed to fly in.
On the ground.
Ha Qiqi and the others had arrived.
Little Wang looked up. "Why aren't they here yet! Why aren't they here yet! "
Ha Qiqi was also getting very anxious, but she said, "Don't worry, they should be here soon."
"How is everyone doing?" Little Zhou was very worried. "The people are all waiting for our new show. If it doesn't get filmed well, then —"
Everyone in Zhang Ye's Studio was looking up at the sky.
Most of them were female colleagues who had stayed behind at the studio.
Suddenly, a plane appeared in everyone's line of sight and slowly landed.
"They're here!"
"They're back!"
"It's their plane!"
A few of them shouted and hurried over to welcome it!
Soon after, the cabin door opened and someone came out.
The first to come out was Tong Fu.
When they saw Tong Fu, Ha Qiqi, Little Wang, and the others were dumbfounded!
They saw that Tong Fu, who used to have a fair complexion, had now turned into a black dog egg. He was tanned and his hair was a mess. It was obvious that he had not even taken a shower. His clothes were torn and his pants were torn. The most speechless thing was his feet. He only had one shoe and the other was bare.
His wife was also here today.
Huang Dandan cursed, "Hubby, what's wrong with you?"
Tears streamed down Tong Fu's face. He went down and hugged his wife. "Wife! My dear wife! Your Brother Tong thought that he would never see you again! "
Little Wang was stunned. "Where are your shoes?"
Ha Qiqi was dumbfounded. "How did they all end up like this?"
Then the second person came out.
Wu Yi said, "He lost his shoes when he was running."
Huang Dandan said in disbelief, "I prepared three pairs of shoes for you."
Tong Fu cried, "They all ran away."
Everyone fainted as they looked at the people coming down one by one. Some were in a sorry state, some were exhausted, some were tanned, and some were missing a shoe. They wondered what they had been through!
In the end, Sun Kuang and Zhang Ye also logged off.
Ha Qiqi quickly ran up to him. "Director Zhang! How are you? "
Zhang Ye was in an even worse state than them. He was in a terrible state, and there was even dirt and mud on his face. However, this fellow was in a particularly good state of mind. This was something that was clearly different from the others. He laughed and said, "Haha, I'm fine. It's just that I look a little worse for wear. As we headed straight for the airport after coming out of the barren mountains, no one wanted to stay at the local hotel to rest for a day. That's why I communicated with the military and got them to approve a flight route for us to fly back."
Little Wang asked, "Why didn't you rest a little?"
Tong Fu was in tears. He said, "What rest? I don't want to stay in that godforsaken place for another minute. I just want to go home!"
Wu Yi also had a lingering fear. "It was too dangerous. It was too dangerous this time. Have you all seen a bear before? We've all seen one this time. The bear chased us for three days and three nights! We managed to escape the first time, but another one came after us the next day. I don't know if it was the same one from the first day, but we kept running until our legs broke! "
Everyone was shocked!
"What?"
"A bear?"
"Fuck, you guys encountered a bear?"
Sun Kuang rolled his eyes. "There were also venomous snakes, ferocious beasts, and cliffs. We encountered all of them this time."
Ha Qiqi said, "Did you not finish filming the show?"
Tong Fu said nervously, "Sister Ha, do you think that with Director Zhang's temper, he would have come back if he hadn't finished filming?"
Zhang Ye called out to everyone, "Let's go. This is a military airport, so let's not waste their time. We'll talk more on the way back to the studio first!" As he walked, he introduced Sun Kuang to them. "This is Sun Kuang. Some of you haven't met him yet, right? This time, it was all thanks to Old Sun that we were able to successfully complete the shoot. There were many dangerous scenes that Old Sun followed me around. From now on, Old Sun will be our studio's special cameraman."
But Sun Kuang said, "Who's from your studio? Don't drag me into this. Working with you? It wouldn't be enough even if I had several lives! "
Zhang Ye laughed, "Haha."
On the way.
In the minibus.
Everyone began to complain. One after another, they recounted the fortuitous encounters they had in the no man's land over the past few days. Ha Qiqi and the others from the studio were scared out of their wits when they heard it. They had not experienced it themselves, nor had they seen that scene with their own eyes. But just from the information they were sharing, it was enough to scare them to death. Only then did Ha Qiqi and the others realize that the film crew had been through a near-death experience over the past few days!
A bear attack?
Jumping off a cliff?
Falling into a river?
Encountering a venomous snake?
Ha Qiqi said, "I knew it! This show is too dangerous!"
Zhang Ye smiled and said, "Riches come from danger."
Sun Kuang harrumphed, "But will your show be any good?"
As for how the show would turn out, none of them knew.
Zhang Ye smiled and said, "You guys might not know now, but you'll understand when the show is edited. I'm going back to take a hot shower and have something to eat. After that, I'll go to Central TV to edit the footage, add in the dubbing, and add in the subtitles. We'll try our best to get the first episode out as soon as possible. We'll have nothing to do for the next two days, so hurry home and get some rest. If the first episode turns out well, we'll still have to record the second and third episodes. At that time, we'll be so busy that we probably won't have time to go home."
Tong Fu cried and said, "Are we still going to record?"
Sun Kuang said in shock, "I'm not going anymore!"
Zhang Ye said, "That won't do. Actually, I don't have much experience with the first episode either. This is my first time shooting a show like this, so I didn't do a lot of the preparation work properly. That's why there were so many problems. But we'll know later on. If we increase the team's manpower and make more safety preparations, there won't be any problems." He even added, "Don't worry, with me around, everyone's safety will be guaranteed. I guarantee it."
Everyone wailed in grief.
You guarantee it, my ass!
The bear is coming, and you still have to go and take a picture or two!
When the viper is coming, you still have to take a picture with it!
It's precisely because you're around that we're in danger!
The car drove back to the studio.
The film crew dispersed and went back to their respective homes.
Zhang Ye took a shower. When he came out, he did not idle around and started organizing the filming materials he had on hand. Then he got Ha Qiqi to contact Central TV.
However, Sun Kuang did not leave. "Aren't you going to rest?"
Zhang Ye smiled and said, "We'll talk about it when I'm done."
Sun Kuang was convinced. "You're really a warrior!"
Ha Qiqi said helplessly, "Director Zhang is always like this. No one can persuade him otherwise."
After surviving in the wilderness for so many days, even though everyone else was complaining, everyone knew that Zhang Ye was the one who was the most tired. But who could have expected that he would not even take a breather the moment he got back to work? On this point, no one in the entire industry dared to compare to Zhang Ye. This fellow was an iron man!
On the same day.
At night.
After Zhang Ye returned to Beijing, he did not even go back to his home. He went straight to Central TV International Channel and locked himself in the studio. Then he started editing for the entire night.
An hour.
Two hours.
Three hours.
Finally, the footage was finished!
Total runtime: 42 minutes and 30 seconds!
The first episode of Man vs. Wild was officially released!
