This celebrity became even more popular after being exposed of having multiple girlfriends-Chapter 543 - 383: In Big Trouble Now

The show’s format can be said to have completely diverged from their previous conceptions; saying the selling points and main storyline have changed is a serious matter.

With contestants competing for survival and elimination, Cui Xiangzhong felt somewhat confident in winning the audience’s favor, as this was always his comfort zone and he knew how to edit it.

But when one contestant became too strong, turning it into a game of catch, where all the contestants hide and team up against this contestant, would the audience still buy it? freewёbnoνel-com

Moreover, there is another troublesome issue: they planned the show to be eight episodes, each thirty to fifty minutes long, and released them all at once.

Originally, because there were enough contestants, each one would have a story, more spotlight on standout contestants, then filming everyone’s survival situation, the mandatory encounter rules they set, and later probing competitions, it could definitely sustain eight episodes.

But now, Wu Mu has already eliminated four people on the first day... Can this really sustain the content of eight episodes?

Although he also admits, that Hua Country celebrity’s camera shots are indeed very interesting, the things he does are completely unexpected and involved with content that ties into the Japanese mafia, which includes gang conflicts, so it can definitely attract huge attention.

However, these contents could only probably make roughly three episodes; can Wu Mu continue maintaining quality for the remaining five episodes?

Would revealing the champion too early remove suspense, and make viewers feel bored later on?

Cui Xiangzhong completely lost confidence.

For the first time, he felt like the program’s freedom setting was too high; he should have set more restrictive rules.

After hesitating for a while, Cui Xiangzhong decided to hand this issue over for the higher-ups to decide.

"President Lee, the Hua Country celebrity you recommended is too strong in the show now, it’s about to change our program’s content and format, should we contact him to tone down a bit?" He dialed Netflix executive Lee Dongxian’s phone.

"Too strong?"

Lee Dongxian seemed visibly stunned and then asked curiously, "How is he too strong?"

"The Hua Country celebrity has connected with the Japanese mafia, and now two Japanese official gangsters with over five thousand members are helping him deal with other contestants." Cui Xiangzhong summarized directly.

There was silence on the other end of the call, and only after several seconds did Lee Dongxian hesitantly repeat, "You mean, Wu Mu has connected with the Japanese mafia, and there are two big Japanese gangs helping him?"

Such niche words....

He felt a bit confused listening.

"Yes."

Again, silence on the phone for several seconds, "Give the details of the program’s progression."

"Yes, today as per our program plan, everyone..." Cui Xiangzhong elaborated in detail.

After listening to Cui Xiangzhong’s detailed explanation, Lee Dongxian was completely dumbfounded.

Although they indeed had a favorable view of Wu Mu, that was too strong!

How does a celebrity event end up relating to gangs which have nothing remotely to do with it!?

However, after triple-checking that Cui Xiangzhong wasn’t lying, Lee Dongxian instantly showed excitement.

"Tone down? No, don’t tone down! Isn’t this great! ’Variety show results involved in gang conflicts, contestant even becomes a guest of the gang,’ this explosive content, as soon as it’s released, can instantly create massive discussion!"

Cui Xiangzhong naturally knew this topic had explosive points, "But this might cause the show to end too soon, and we cannot ensure the content will be interesting later."

"Then reduce the length! Cut it to six episodes, or fewer!"

Lee Dongxian spoke decisively.

"Everything must prioritize ensuring the show’s quality and topic engagement!"

What a joke, topic engagement is exactly what their platform needs most; only with enough breakout coverage can they attract more new users to open memberships.

He pursued content that is explosive and can break the media barrier!

"Moreover, I don’t think the upcoming content will be boring. A strong contestant game of catch... it’s deviating a little from our initial plan, but I find it very interesting too."

Changing to six episodes?

Cui Xiangzhong relaxed a bit, then there would still be about three episodes’ worth of material, which shouldn’t be hard to produce.

Besides this issue, there’s another concern, "President Lee, how do we get airing permissions from these gangs? Would they allow us to broadcast footage of gang conflicts?"

Because the show pursues absolute real "urban survival," it always used a covert filming method, planning to contact those people featured for airing rights afterward, buy permission, or pixelate or remove it if unable to obtain.

This method isn’t a problem with ordinary people, but with gangs, what to do?

Would they want to appear on television? And the filmed content is their conflicts?

Lee Dongxian pondered aloud twice, "Let’s film first, then normally ask them for airing permission afterward. If not granted... then that’s out of their control!"

Netflix is a huge capitalist company from America, gangs sound tough, but they’re just a bunch of dogs for the government and those in power anyway.

If they were Hua Country’s dogs, they might not be able to deal with them, but as for Japan’s... there’s always a way.

...

While Cui Xiangzhong was worrying about program content, on the other side, someone else was discussing Wu Mu’s situation.
