Chapter 1670: Help me up, I can still take another bite!

Translator: Legge Editor: Legge

America.

At a television station.

“Dammit!”

“Our show’s viewership numbers have dropped again!”

“It’s such a huge drop?”

“Ugh, everyone has gone to watch Man vs. Wild.”

“That show is too good.”

“Many of our American shows and series can’t even beat it!”

“That’s not necessarily true. We can always copy it.”

“That’s right, we can do a similar survival program!”

“It’s too late now. Putting aside the fact that an identical show almost always isn’t as good as the original, just who do you guys have in mind to invite as the host?”

“Anyone would do. There are so many survival specialists in the world.”

“But can they eat alligators?”

“Uh…”

“Can they eat sharks?”

“Uh…”

“So tell me, who can we get?”

“…Well, alright then.”

At this moment, the global television industry was in a state of helplessness.

Back then, they hadn’t even considered Man vs. Wild to be an opponent.

But now, they ended up not daring to go against Man vs. Wild.

The industry insiders from other countries could not do anything about Zhang Ye. They could not even imitate his style. If only Zhang Ye’s performance on the show wasn’t this good, then others could introduce their own shows and come up with a television show better than Man vs. Wild. However, Zhang Ye did not give anyone the chance to do so. He immediately stunned the entire world with his abilities and took only three episodes to capture the hearts of countless viewers around the world. There were many survival specialists in the world, but only one who behaved so “recklessly”—and that person was in China.

…

The next day.

In the morning.

At Zhang Ye’s Studio.

“Director Zhang!”

“Good morning, Director Zhang.”

“Have you seen the viewership ratings yet?”

“The third episode has broken records again!”

“We’re practically unstoppable now!”

“Ah, the international celebrity rankings have been updated.”

“Where is it? Where is it?”

“What rank is Director Zhang now?”

Today, the International Celebrity Rankings Index was refreshed again.

On the rankings, Zhang Ye’s international popularity soared once more. With unstoppable momentum, he advanced another four positions and planted himself firmly among the frontrunners of the international C-list rankings. Several famous international hosts from America and the UK who were at the top got surpassed by Zhang Ye.

Overnight, Man vs. Wild became very popular!

Overnight, Zhang Ye also became very popular!

Zhang Ye smiled and said, “We’ve edged closer to the International B-list Rankings once more.

Ha Qiqi said excitedly, “It might not be long before we really get into the International B-list Rankings. Many viewers around the world and the media have high praise for our show, but I feel that it’s still not the peak. The results from here on out could get even more astonishing.”

Zhang Zuo agreed, “I agree with that point!”

Little Wang said with a laugh, “It’s on fire! We’re on fire again!”

Ha Qiqi was overwhelmed with emotion. “The global television industry is already in chaos. Have you guys watched the news? Many people are pouring cold water on us. Actually, I can understand how they feel, I really do. They must not have expected that a TV show from China would one day ride over their heads.”

Zhang Zuo gave a wry smile. “It’s not like we expected that such a day would come either, right?”

Tong Fu said, “I expected it! It’s just that I didn’t think it would come so soon!”

Ha Qiqi grinned from ear to ear. “That’s right. This day has arrived so quickly that it feels a little unreal. When I woke up this morning, my family told me that I laughed myself awake.”

Zhang Ye smiled and said, “Then we ought to shoot the next episodes even better.”

Wu Yi said, “Don’t you worry about that, we’re all ready.”

Zhang Ye said, “Let’s get ready to set off then. I’ll be counting on everyone to put in a little more hard work!”

Tong Fu said with a grin, “It’s not hard work at all. We’ve already gotten used to it.”

The office door opened. Zhang Ye’s mother was here as well.

His mother said, “You’re leaving again?”

Zhang Ye nodded and said, “The itinerary has been established.”

His mother smacked her lips and said, “Be careful!”

“I know, Mom,” Zhang Ye said.

His mother instructed, “Don’t keep eating anything that moves!”

When she said that, the studio staff broke out into laughter.

Zhang Ye was also amused. “Alright, I’ll heed your words.”

Of course, it wasn’t clear whether those words really had an effect on this fellow.

Without getting much rest, the film crew was about to set off again.

Film!

Film!

Film!

The studio staff only had one thing on their minds right now, and that was to film Man vs. Wild to the best that they could. This was the first television show they had that went global, as well as the first Chinese television show that made it abroad. Everyone’s eyes were on them, and they needed to live up to the expectations by presenting the best show they could to everyone. As for how high Zhang Ye could lead them, they no longer cared.

…

Several days later.

The fourth episode was broadcast.

“It’s starting!”

“Quick, let’s watch it!!”

“What the hell! It’s a volcano!”

“It’s getting more and more dangerous each time.”

“What kind of bug is that?”

“Heavens, Lord Zhang! Why are you catching bugs again?”

“Your sister, you just parachuted down less than a minute ago and you’re already thinking about food?!”

“Lord Zhang is gonna sweep clean the volcanic valley.”

“I can already see barren land at the end of this.”

“Let’s see what he’s gonna eat today!”

“Ah, there’s an animal carcass.”

“Lord Zhang has spotted it!”

“Damn, how long has it been dead for?”

“He’s dug the eyes ¹ out of the carcass! Could he fucking be thinking of eating them? Damn! I refuse to believe that he’ll eat them!”

“Ah! He ate them!”

“Yeah, he ate them.”

“I’m gonna faint!”

“I’m gonna puke!”

“I’ve already puked!”

…

The fifth episode was broadcast.

“It’s a spider!”

“RIP, the spider and its family won’t be able to escape this killer!”

“Haha, it’s gonna get roasted and eaten by Zhang Ye.”

“Ah, he didn’t roast it!”

“He ate it raw!”

“He swallowed the spider raw!”

“Oh my God!”

“Does this guy have an iron stomach or something?”

“He’s putting his will to survive ahead of everything else. On this aspect, Zhang Ye is showing that he’s really dedicated to his job. I don’t think there’s another person like him.”

“Hahaha, watch this, Face-smacking Zhang is down on his knees!”

“Zhang Ye is down!”

“I’m pissing my pants laughing. You’ve finally gotten ill from eating! You deserve it for eating anything that you can find!”

“This fellow has finally fallen ill. That’s what he gets for pretending to be tough!”

“Then what will happen in this episode?”

“Who knows? I’m gonna gloat anyways!”

“You guys are awful!”

“Wait, he’s getting up again. Damn, he’s eating more insects!”

“He’s down again! It looks like he’s gotten really sick this time. He looks terrible. It’s really dangerous for this to happen in the wild! He could die!”

“Ah, there’s a snake!”

“Lord Zhang is up again!”

“The snake has been eaten!”

“I’m gonna faint! You’re in such a state, yet you can still fucking eat? You just can’t forget about eating even though you’re already this sick, can you?”

“Zhang Ye says: ‘Help me up, I can still take another bite!”

“Pfft, hahahahahaha!”

…

Man vs. Wild continued to be a global hit!

At times, there was tension.

At times, there were screams.

At times, it was shocking.

At times, it was hilarious.

—Perhaps this was the charm of the show.
