Live Streaming: Great Adventure in the Wilderness - Chapter 227:
Chapter 227: Chapter 224 Did he say it?
The usual state could still maintain an audience of over 1.2 million.
Such data, whether for Discovery Channel or YouTube, was very satisfying.
Especially for Discovery Channel, which had seen its ratings decline for years due to the development of the era, the viewership actually soared!
It was incredible!
In fact, many older generations who were not proficient in using smartphones and computers didn’t know much about live streaming, but Discovery Channel provided them a channel to get in touch with it.
Unsurprisingly, Bi Fang’s program didn’t see a decrease in its appeal to audiences of any age.
Especially for the people of Ugly Country, individual heroism was their favorite.
Discovery Channel’s new program literally gave a blood transfusion to the declining television station. Many who didn’t like watching bullet comments and wanted to enjoy family warmth with their loved ones, turned on Discovery Channel and put down their phones.
If a TV media company could make a fortune, what about the platform?
No one knows how many people were green with envy.
Not to mention the direct beneficiary Bi Fang, even the Wolf Fang boss must have been laughing in his dreams. Who could have thought that the host he had brought back at a great cost would bring in such a profit in just half a year?
In a few more days, it would be the annual New Year’s ranking day when fans of all kinds would vote for their favorite hosts. The viewership would surely increase by a lot, then what would the scene be like?
Thinking of this, the Shark boss wasn’t just envious, he was almost ready to pop his eyeballs out and play ping pong with them for three hundred rounds.
This profit should have been exclusively for them, Shark!
What the hell did Wolf Fang have to do with it?
With Bi Fang, it was like having a divine weapon in the live broadcasting circle, wreaking havoc, especially with its subsequent impact.
Whenever Bi Fang trended, didn’t the comments always mention he was a Wolf Fang host?
Gradually, Wolf Fang, which was about to drop out of the top three live streaming platforms, was milked right back up. Not only did their user downloads surge in the past six months, but their market value rose steadily and was already on par with Shark and Tiger Fang!
Damnit, something that should have been dead was bloody revived and became nauseating. If it were Shark, they would have killed their way through already, then what would Wolf Fang and Tiger Fang have to do with it? Now it had become a situation where one was superior and several were strong.
Such a powerful tool used for resurrection, and it’s no good for you, Wolf Fang!
Huge profits, huge profits!
Thinking of this made Wolf Fang’s boss’s heart ache even more. Where the hell was Wang Weifeng? Dare he still sit in the office?
Go guard the door!
No, go clean the toilets for me, scrub the toilets!!!
…
Bi Fang stayed on the edge of the life raft for a whole three hours.
Not to mention a bite, not a single fish came close.
[Air Force]
[Master Fang in the Air Force? Interesting（funny）]
[It’s noon already, I feel the hope is slim]
[Still need to use bait, this is my over ten years of experience in Air Force, roadside bums are not reliable!]
[In ancient times, The Buddha cut flesh to feed eagles, now we have Master Fang cutting flesh to fish, listen to me, you still need to use bait]
[Wow, that’s a bit too much]
“That’s not necessarily the case,” Bi Fang remained optimistic. He pointed at the big sun in the sky, “Look, the sun is so intense, maybe there will be fish that come to rest under my boat. So let’s not give up too easily. Sometimes, the more you want to give up, maybe the closer you are to success.”
“The first time is always difficult, don’t be anxious. Maybe we have to wait for a day, or two days, but as long as we get a fish on the hook, even if it’s just a little bit, I can hold on in this sea.”
Bi Fang wasn’t exaggerating. As long as he could get one fish, he could use small fish to catch larger ones. Moreover, he could use the fish bones as hooks. By then, obtaining food wouldn’t be difficult.
This is after all the North Sea.
With such an optimistic mood, Bi Fang fished until nightfall.
Throughout the day, he watched the sun traverse from east to west, the moon even rose, and yet not a single fish took the bait.
“I can’t do this anymore, I’m so tired.”
Bi Fang collapsed onto the life raft, his lips turning white, his voice weak, the entire raft shaking.
Fishing with a piece of iron, this isn’t something humans should do.
Maybe he shouldn’t have pinned his hopes on fishing at all. If he was lucky, he might encounter a lost seabird.
In foul weather, birds can be blown off their usual migratory paths and lose their way, and only a few seabirds can sleep on the ocean surface, so a life raft like this, a rare resting spot, has considerable allure…
Damn it, that’s even less likely than fishing!
Bi Fang slapped his forehead, doubting whether hunger had muddled his senses, to actually pin his hopes on such an event, the likelihood of which was even damn smaller than catching a fish.
[Hahaha, six meals missed, an achievement is about to be unlocked, too bad there are no rewards]
[Maybe the showrunners could airdrop an achievement reward—a pool of seawater as the prize!]
[Don’t laugh, Master Fang’s lips are turning white, it feels like the challenge set by the showrunners this time is beyond human capability!]
[Indeed, I feel the same way, it’s too hard, at the very least leave a tin can, a piece of iron or something, maybe pair it with a standard life raft!]
Even Jerret started to doubt himself. Originally, he only thought about the impact of the show, plus Bi Fang left a very deep impression on him—strong, invincible, a man who could turn the impossible into the possible.
That’s why he stripped everything from the life raft, he even removed all but a small section of the safety harness. Now, it seemed, maybe it really was an impossible challenge from the start.
In pursuit of the effect of the show, he had not taken objective facts into account and had not considered Bi Fang’s feelings.
Even Pan Lian, as Bi Fang mentioned, had never faced such a situation; he still had food for bait, a tin can for a knife, and various tools to help him fish and replenish nutrients, his starting point was much better.
“Do you think this task has any chance of success?”
Jerret looked towards Pondy, waiting for the safety consultant’s answer. If he said no, then Jerret would stop this farce he had initiated, even if it meant facing the TV network’s penalties.
If it was indeed impossible, why continue?
The problem lay with him; Bi Fang should not have to bear the brunt of a failed adventure for no reason.
“Impossible.”
Pondy covered his chin with one hand, gazing at the fluctuating Bi Fang on the screen, and shook his head swiftly and assertively.
Jerret sighed, “Is that really the case? Let’s suspend the show for now.”
“Wait, why?”
Pondy was stunned, not understanding why Jerret would say such a thing. The live broadcast was going well, so why suddenly suspend it?
After Jerret explained his reasoning, Pondy suddenly laughed.
“I said impossible, because it’s impossible for me. My knowledge and experience tell me it’s impossible.”
“But…” Pondy extended his hand, pointing towards the lone hero on the big screen, “Has he said so?”
…
Bi Fang leaped up from the life raft, beating his head, dispelling the last remnants of negative thoughts, rejuvenating his spirit. He continued to unravel the threads, then reattached them to the lock rope, tying the last bit around his waist.
Unable to catch anything during the day didn’t mean he couldn’t at night, when the reflection of the moon was even more apparent.
Tonight he was going to outlast the fish. As long as a fish approached, he would catch one, even if it meant going into the water!
Just as Bi Fang regrouped and focused on the ocean, he was taken aback.
Onto the sea surface filled with starry reflections, suddenly drifted a patch of shadow devoid of any starlight.
