Chapter 305 Everyone is Happy
The sun shines on the plain, the wind blows along the earth, and thousands of small yellow flowers sway, covering the bare brown land after the heavy snow in severe winter melts.
The wilderness is vast, as if covered with a layer of golden sunlight.
“It’s spring.”
Bifang stood in the field, the air rushing into his nose, the fragrance so rich that he knew without looking that there must be a large area of green in front of him.
From February to March, people witnessed the Rocky Mountains ushering in spring through drones, watching the colors of the earth change again and again.
The wind brought moisture and warmth from the Pacific Ocean. The snow line of the mountains continued to rise, and the huge ice armor cracked. Snow water flowed in the cracks, like honey water.
The long-silent land was exposed to the sun again, breathing in the fresh air to its heart's content. Green and lush grass squeezed out of the ground, like emerald green spring water gushing out from the depths of the earth, overflowing along the undulating wilderness to the horizon.
Forsythia is the first to bloom.
This flower has extremely strong vitality. It spreads all over the world like weeds and plants its flag in every corner .
It grows on the ground, with branches emerging from the leaf axils, slender flower stems, and tender yellow five-petal flowers. The tender yellow flowers overwhelm the green of the weeds and stretch all the way to the horizon, forming a huge flower bed with no visible edge.
Full of vitality.
Even the audience was happy. In modern society, how many people have such an opportunity to get close to nature and spring?
In just ten days, such changes have really made people feel the existence of "spring" firsthand, rather than just a concept that exists in books or a quick glance during a busy weekend.
What’s worse, there are no weekends off…
Truly creating something from nothing.
"There's only half an hour left."
Bifang lifted up his sleeves, revealing the same watch as the contestant. The number displayed on it had long since changed from 299:59:59 at the beginning to 000:31:12.
"Has Mugalen arrived?"
“Already here.”
Pangdi pointed to a tiny human figure not far away. The figure was covered with a huge bear skin. The huge bear head was on top of Mugalen's head. If you didn't look carefully, someone might really think it was a brown bear coming.
Nor is he afraid of being shot to death.
There are many poachers these days. A bear is worth more than 100,000 gold coins. If you walk in the forest wearing a bear skin, you might get shot if you are not careful.
In the distance, Mugalen also saw the helicopter parked beside the road. He gave a thumbs up to the drone camera and shouted to Bifang and others.
“Am I number one?”
Bifang smiled and nodded: "If no miracle happens in the remaining half hour, then it is indeed the case."
"ha!"
Mugalen laughed out loud, extremely satisfied with the result.
However, there was still half an hour before the show officially ended, so he was not in a hurry. He came to the helicopter very familiarly, sat down on the chair, swayed from side to side, and let out a long sigh.
Damn, it’s still comfortable here. He wants to be a commentator .
Half an hour later, the miracle did not happen after all. Ava and Lisa were still nearly a hundred kilometers away from the human gathering, and the crossing failed.
The program team sent out a helicopter to pick up the contestants one by one to discuss the final award ceremony process.
Bifang discussed with several other judges. The first and second place were undoubtedly Mu Jialun and Ji Zuodong, but the third place...
to whom?
The judges had a dispute: who would take third place, Avalisa or the guy who survived in the wilderness for twelve days?
After all, traveling through time is harder than surviving in the same place. Although they didn't succeed, Ava and Lisa are also women, and their physical conditions are naturally weak. They should have been taken extra care of, and it would not be a problem if the conditions were relaxed a little...
"Alright, Oginga third!"
The judges were arguing loudly, and Bifang became annoyed and directly decided on the third place.
“Ah, this…”
The judges looked at each other. Those who supported Oginga were naturally happy, while those who did not support him felt choked. They had listed so many conditions, but the other party didn't even look at them.
Bifang curled his lips in disdain. These judges are all ugly Chinese people. They must have been brainwashed.
If you fail, you fail. There are no so many reasons.
He absolutely admired Ava and Lisa's will and ability. Women were indeed born with weaker conditions, but to tilt fairness because of this would be the true disrespect.
Why would a truly strong woman need your pity?
As for these judges, let Lisa come over and punch each of those crying monsters.
Moreover, this is not fair to Ogakin, because he won by his own ability. He actually persisted for twelve days, during which time he kept catching small prey, which shows that he has real ability and knows how to find animal trails. He also built his shelter very well and even put up a fence. He is really amazing.
Jarrett naturally had no objection to this decision. When he invited Bifang, he had made it clear that he was the first judge and had the power to make decisions, while others only had the right to make suggestions.
Not convinced?
Okay, go and beat the black bear yourself before you talk, if not, just keep it to yourself.
Seeing that no one had any objections, Bifang came to Mugalen, grabbed his hand and lifted it up.
"Then let us congratulate Mr. Mugalen Aberforth Weller, our champion! The king who conquered the Rocky Mountains and the warrior who hunted brown bears!"
The staff nearby immediately brought up the trophy, on which Mugalen's full name was engraved, along with a large check.
Mugalen didn't care about the trophy, he just came for the 100,000 ugly gold. But when he took it and looked at it, he found that it was not 100,000, but 600,000!
The audience almost stopped breathing when they saw it. Six hundred thousand?
Wouldn’t that be nearly four million red bills?
Oh my god!
Mu Jialun was stunned and wondered if the program team had made a mistake.
Jarrett on the side smiled and explained, "Actually, it was Bifang who proposed it. He felt that 100,000 yuan was not enough to match your performance, so he took all the tips from the audience during those two days and the tips from the time when you appeared on the show, and added them in. Our program team just rounded it up. Others who persisted also got some. All the tips they received during the time they appeared on the show were given to you."
Ji Zuodong, who came in second, and Ogakin, who came in third, also received checks. When they looked down, they found that the amounts were indeed several times higher than what they had originally agreed on!
Even Ava and Lisa, who failed the challenge, received a bonus. As long as they persevered, their hard work for half a month was worth it.
In an instant, the live broadcast room was filled with congratulations and cheers. They had absolutely no opinion on Mugalen, the first place winner. As a real heavyweight, they were all happy from the bottom of their hearts when they heard that the prize money had increased.
Similarly, there are people who praise Bifang's character. After all, there is no need for him to take out the money, and no one takes it for granted that Bifang should not take the money.
Without him, this show wouldn't be as popular as it is now. It might be popular in the future, but definitely not in the first season.
The audience who have spare money to give rewards basically come for Bifang.
After all, as a new program, no matter how exciting and popular it is, there will be a delay. Most of the viewers are those who watch the recording later. How could there be so many viewers during the live broadcast like now?
A reward of over one million U.S. dollars is considered a big deal for any program, and it also lays the best foundation for the program Wilderness Arena. Even if Bifang does not come in the future, Discovery Channel is confident that it can be carried out.
Everyone is happy!
