After Reborn, I Became the Bigshots' Beloved novel Chapter 424

Chapter 424: Chapter 424: Arriving on the Island

The words fell, and the entire room fell silent.

If the people on the plane were given a choice earlier between being sent to a remote island or going home, most would have chosen to go home without hesitation.

However, after listening to what this Mr. S said, everyone present took a sharp breath in.

A short speech, yet brimming with information.

In essence, now presented before everyone on the plane were two paths.

The first path: press the button, and in a moment, they could fly back home with the plane. No adventure, no danger.

The second path: possibly staying on the remote island for ten days. They had no knowledge of the island’s circumstances, nor could they predict the dangers that might follow, but they might win prize money.

Just as Mr. S had mentioned earlier, the maximum prize money each person could receive was eight million.

Forget the top three in the popularity award; just finding the treasure alone yields a five-million prize. Even if they weren’t the sole individual finding the treasure and discovered it with others, the prize money shared would still be substantial.

Because if they truly ended up on the remote island, it would be improbable for everyone to cooperate entirely and would likely lead to forming teams and camps. Even if the treasure-finding team consisted of ten people, that’d still be 500,000 per person.

This was solid, tangible cash!

Participating in the show had already earned each person a 100,000 reward from the production team.

Among the participants, there were families like the wealthy Lu Family, Shi Family, Han Family, and Lan Family, as well as those from less affluent or even impoverished households.

Originally, for some of them, 100,000 was already a significant amount. But now, seeing the potential eight million prize money, the 100,000 reward seemed negligible in comparison.

If they could bring home even several hundred thousand—a sum that could buy a house in a county town.

Not to mention buying a house; at the very least, four years’ worth of college tuition and living expenses would be covered with plenty left over.

So, to gamble or to go back?

A girl with a ponytail and glasses had initially placed her hand on the button but now quietly withdrew it. freeweɓnovel~cѳm

Someone nearby noticed and asked, "Yiyi, are you not going back now? Didn’t you start crying earlier out of fear?"

The girl named Huang Yiyi looked somewhat embarrassed. "...I cried earlier because I thought we were being kidnapped, so I was scared."

"But since this is an event arranged by the production team and will be livestreamed, even if we end up on the remote island, there shouldn’t be a real danger."

"Since we’re here, I’ll go with everyone and see it through."

A boy nearby joined the conversation.

"Meng Yan, you were furious earlier, saying the production team committed kidnapping and you’d report it to the police. Now you’re not leaving?"

"Leave for what? Did you hear how exciting this game sounds?" Meng Yan said with a face full of enthusiasm.

"Survival on a remote island while treasure hunting, that’s just thrilling! I didn’t expect the production team to come up with something so creative; no wonder they kept it so secret beforehand."

Meanwhile, Lan Yu turned to Lu Sheng: "Shengsheng, what do you think?"

"I want to stay," Lu Sheng replied.

"Then I’ll stay too," Lan Yu immediately said.

Lu Sheng looked at Lu Youming and Lu Youye, "Fourth Brother, Fifth Brother..."

Lu Youye pinched Lu Sheng’s face: "What are you thinking? If you stay, do you really think we wouldn’t stick around with you?"

"Besides, this real-life survival game on a remote island sounds way more fun than playing video games. I wouldn’t want to miss it."

If Lan Yu was in, Han Jing naturally followed suit. All five of them had no disagreements; they came together and would stick together.

Meanwhile, An Xianni tugged at Shi Yuwei’s sleeve, whispering, "Yuwei, let’s not get involved in this... Those poor people might go for the money, but our families don’t even need it."

"Our luggage was all left outside the assembly hall. If we’re staying on a remote island for days, where are we sleeping? What kind of beds would there be on the island? Beds costing under two thousand are hard as rocks."

"And what are we eating? Who’s going to cook for us? Wouldn’t the food prepared for us be canned goods and compressed biscuits? Who could eat such garbage for ten days?"

"Also, if we go, what about washing, bathing, skin care? Who knows if the production team provided sunscreen? If we get sunburned, what then? It’s terrifying; let’s just head back..."

An Xianni thought since she was whispering, the camera equipment on the plane wouldn’t pick up her words clearly, and the viewers wouldn’t hear.

However, the reality was that what the viewers were currently watching wasn’t just a standard broadcast but a game livestream.

In this game livestream, every word spoken by every individual in every corner was audible to the viewers. There was even a subtitle feature, instantly displaying every spoken word as subtitles.

Because of this, many viewers who overheard An Xianni’s remarks couldn’t help but feel irritated.

What’s with "those poor people"? Coming in with such a superior attitude. Even saying beds costing under two thousand are hard as rocks and canned goods and compressed biscuits are trash.

Don’t they know how many people can’t afford beds costing over two thousand? Or how many people consider eating her so-called "trash" to be a luxury?

Thus, although no one had introduced themselves yet, the first impression this self-important heiress gave was enough to stir dissatisfaction among the viewers.
