As the show progressed, Zu Lan, Chao Ge, Baby, Chen He, Li Chen, and Kai Zi were eliminated one after another in the competition.
In the end, Lu Han emerged victorious.
“Hahaha, Lu Han won, he still doesn't know he's already lost,” Chao Ge laughed heartily.
Li Chen also clapped and said, “Is this the first time he's won the name tag tearing competition?”
Chu Ming grinned mischievously, “I have a suggestion.”
“When we congratulate him later, we have to be enthusiastic, we have to praise Lu Han to the skies.”
“Say whatever good things you can think of!”
Huh?
The Running Man crew's eyes lit up after hearing this.
Chen He opened his mouth wide and laughed, “That's great! We'll see Lu Han's reaction later, it's going to be hilarious.”
“You're so mean, hahaha,” Li Chen and the others agreed enthusiastically.
After all, watching someone else ‘make a fool of themselves’ was quite entertaining.
In the final round, everyone lined up.
Seeing Lu Han emerge, Chu Ming whispered, “He's coming, he's coming, get ready to clap, praise him, director, give us some music.”
Clap-clap-clap~
“Oh!!!” Everyone entered acting mode.
“Lu Han, you're amazing, how did you do it?”
“Cool, Xiao Lu, I give you a thumbs-up!”
“Too strong, why are you so good?”
“...”
Lu Han greeted everyone sheepishly, like Liu Zhuang Shi from the village, brimming with confidence.
Awaiting his crowning as “Running Hero”!
【Trickery, all tricks!】
【So naive, hahaha, kid, wise up!】
【Gotta say this episode had me rolling, Chu Ming is so mean, but handsome and mean, I love it!】
【Following Chu Ming, he's so good at playing, didn't expect him to be so uninhibited.】
【Chu Ming is truly an acting pro, this performance was seamless, I almost believed it!】
【......】
“The name tag tearing round, the last one standing, Lu Han, congratulations!”
Lu Han was already smiling.
“Congratulations on failing the mission.”
Lu Han: ???
“You will lose the right to become the Running Hero,” the director said.
Lu Han looked completely dumbfounded.
What happened?
Why did this happen?
What did all that enthusiastic welcome mean!!!
Who came up with this idea, was it the production team?
After this segment, the episode was almost over. After the show, everyone returned to the hotel for a group dinner.
“So, it's good to be on the losing side? But I finally won once,” Lu Han lamented.
Chao Ge also laughed, “You wouldn't believe how scary it was when we entered that elimination room, hahaha.”
Li Chen pondered for a moment, “Chu Ming, who tore your tag?”
This question immediately brought everyone back to reality.
Initially, everyone thought Li Chen had torn Chu Ming's tag, but it seems it wasn't so.
Chu Ming smiled, “When I was analyzing the rules, I realized that losing is actually winning, the end is the beginning, so I tore my tag off myself!”
Ah!!!
It's possible to do that!
My goodness!
Baby's eyes shone brightly, “So you tore it yourself, I'm impressed, you're amazing.”
Chen He even covered his face, “Didn't expect Chu Ming to be even quicker than me, he's a genius among geniuses!”
Chu Ming modestly said, “It was also to get camera time. Whether the prediction was right or wrong, it would leave a lasting impression on the audience, and that's a win for me.”
Huh?
That makes a lot of sense!
Isn't the point of being on a variety show to get camera time?
“Wow, Chu Ming has 2 million fans now? I remember it was only 1 million before,” Li Chen checked his phone in disbelief.
The others also took out their phones and confirmed.
“It's true, he gained a million fans from one episode, that's terrifying!” Baby exclaimed, covering her mouth.
Chao Ge was impressed, “These people are praising him for everything, gotta say you've got some real variety show charisma!”
Gaining fans is a great thing.
With the number of fans increasing, opportunities for endorsements will also increase, and the amount of contracts will grow too!!!
Now, all they need to do is let the bullet fly for a while.
Soon, those products and manufacturers will start noticing!!!
His future value surpasses Lu Han, let alone Baby!!!
While everyone was eating and drinking, the show's director walked in.
He laughed, “I have some good news for everyone. Previously, our show's online livestream audience was around 10 million, but now it's directly increased to 20 million!”
“Doubled! Thanks for everyone's hard work.”
Doubled?
That's terrifying.
The director raised his wine glass and approached Chu Ming, “Chu Ming, I looked at the livestream comments, half of them were about you.”
“It's also because of your outstanding performance that we achieved this record, thank you.”
Wow!
The director is offering a toast!
This treatment.
Few people in the Running Man crew have received this.
After the director left, Baby's eyes gleamed at Chu Ming.
She kicked off her shoes and reached out toward Chu Ming under the table.
