Biên tập viên: EndlessFantasy Translation
They spent the night in each other's embrace.
The next morning, the sunlight fell on the windowsill.
Last night, they spent it in each other's embrace, and Alice made it known to Thomson that she wished he would not continue to participate in the show!
Everything should stop right there as she was very afraid that Thomson would make one mistake after another.
Was he willing to risk his reputation all for the sake of that so-called prize money?
However, Thomson did not agree, and he even said that he would win the final prize money for her!
Now, Alice was even more convinced that her husband and the program team were connected. In other words, he was very likely to be the program team's default winner!
Upon thinking of this, she could not help but feel somewhat regretful!
If she had known that this would happen, she would rather work overtime to earn more money than let her husband do this.
Now that things had developed to this point, feeling regretful was useless.
The program team was already knocking on the door before the husband and wife, who had just woken up, had managed to wash up.
Alice quickly put on light makeup and then went out with Thomson.
Outside the door, the program team's staff member invited them into the luxurious business car.
Once the car started, the director immediately said, "Mr. Thomson, Miss Alice, the second round of the competition is about connections!"
"Let me give you a brief introduction!"
"The so-called competition of connections consists of all the contestants who have made it through to the second round. Each person can invite five friends to the venue!"
"However, our filming takes into account of all things."
"So even if these people can't make it to the venue, they can provide the relevant documents to prove their identity!"
"If a celebrity friend appears, a C-list celebrity will be counted as 10 million, a B-list celebrity will be counted as 50 million, an A-list celebrity will be counted as 100 million, and a top-tier celebrity will be counted as 300 million."
"Public officials can also be included. District-level, city-level, and state-level, from 1 million to 100 million. The amount will increase progressively!"
...
After a series of explanations, Thomson and Alice were very clear about the rules of this competition.
However, Alice was in a bit of a dilemma. Her richest friend only had a net worth of a few hundred thousand dollars. Even the president of her company would only have a net worth of a million dollars.
It was a lot for ordinary people, but this was the second round of the competition!
The ones who made it through were a group of talented people! Compared to them, her network was simply nothing.
Despite that, a smile was etched on her face.
This was because Alice suddenly remembered that her husband and the program team from the show were in it together!
So what was there to be afraid of?
The director suddenly said, "There are a few changes to our show this season. We could..."
Just when the director opened his mouth to speak, Thomson interrupted, "Do we have to get five friends? I think one can settle it!"
Thomson planned to tell his wife Alice everything.
However, he did not want too many people to know!
Not that he wanted to hide anything, but he knew that once he got in touch with his friends, his life would never be peaceful again.
Forty percent of the reason why he chose to retire was because of these people!
From the moment he woke up, these people's calls came in one after another, and before he could hang up on one call, the second one was already calling!
Moreover, each person's call involved no small matter. They all required him to make a decision!
As such, if he informed his five friends in one go, Thomson believed that this network of connections would be activated.
That kind of life was too tiring for him!
Therefore, he interrupted the director's words at the first moment and raised his question.
Upon hearing this, the director subconsciously replied, "One is actually not a problem, but this is the bare minimum. It wouldn't be good if there is no one! But of course, I'd suggest that you invite five people! This way, the chances of winning are higher!"
Others might not know, but as the director, he knew very well.
Thomson, who was sitting in front of him, was definitely a hidden big shot!
Why?
That was because he had done an investigation after the last show.
The 100 million dollar transfer was real! There was no inside story to it at all!
It was a demonstration of this big shot's capabilities!
After his investigation, he found out that Alice did not know that her husband was a big shot. Hence, he concluded that Thomson should be a person of high standing who could not reveal his identity to the public.
There must be some hidden secrets behind it.
Even so, the director did not want to find out. After all, knowing too much was not a good thing as it may put him in danger.
All he had to do was ensure Thomson made his way into the finals because only then could the show's ratings soar and their advertising revenue increase!
