Chapter 17: Rain of Banknotes Incoming!
The moment the mysterious Swallow Cave broke into the live stream, many viewers were conquered by the uncanny workmanship of nature and sent barrages one after another:
【Holy crap, so shocking!】
【Too beautiful!】
【Swallow Cave? What kind of place is this?】
【Don't know, such a mysterious feeling!】
【Nature is truly magical; I really didn't expect that such a place could still exist on Earth!】
【So spectacular!】
【Where is God Chu? I want to see God Chu!】
【I want to see God Chu too! What's so good about this broken hole!】
The debut of Swallow Cave instantly triggered intense discussion among the viewers.
At the same time, it also aroused everyone's curiosity!
The next second, while the barrage was buzzing with discussion, the live stream camera switched to the interior of Swallow Cave!
In the entire sinkhole, only a single ray of sunlight could be seen at the entrance.
It revealed an indescribable mystery and eeriness!
This mysterious cave, hidden in the primeval forest of central Mexico, is called Swallow Cave precisely because the cave walls inside are covered with vast swarms of Mexican swifts.
These Mexican swifts have been breeding and living here for hundreds or thousands of years.
They have no natural predators and have never been disturbed.
But today, the tranquility here will soon be completely shattered by the arrival of one person!
However, these swifts did not seem to realize this.
They were still, as usual, leisurely enjoying the sunlight pouring down from the edge of the cave entrance!
……
……
……
"Whoosh!"
At an altitude of ten thousand meters, the wind whistled!
The next moment, Chu Chen, who had not appeared on camera for a long time, finally appeared before all the viewers again!
Right now, he was clutching those 400 million Huaxia Yuan, diving at high speed toward the vast primeval forest!
In this scene, Chu Chen almost perfectly reproduced the shot from the movie Point Break; looking from afar, it was extremely shocking!
【Holy crap!】
【Impressive, my brother!】
【This man is simply too handsome! Can't take it!】
【Hollywood blockbusters wouldn't dare to film like this! It's so damn shocking!】
【The person is flying in front, and the soul is chasing behind!】
【Alas, I'm uncultured, so I use "holy crap" for everything!】
【Mom asked me why I'm kneeling to watch the live stream!】
【Why does he dare to show off like this! Too arrogant! But, I like it!】
The free-fall speed of high-altitude parachuting is already very fast.
At this moment, because Chu Chen was holding those 4 tons of cash, his falling speed reached a terrifying peak, easily exceeding 1000 kilometers per hour!
A speed of 1000 kilometers per hour is even faster than the top speed of an ordinary civil airliner!
Comparable to a bullet leaving the chamber!
The next second!
In order to let the viewers personally experience the thrill of the dive brought by the 1000 km/h speed, the Super Intelligent Micro Sky Eye decisively adjusted the live stream shooting angle from the third-person perspective to the first-person perspective!
The sudden change in perspective caught many viewers off guard, causing everyone to cry out in various ways:
【Holy crap!】
【True death perspective!】
【Don't, I'm afraid of heights!】
【My legs have gone weak!】
【Brothers, I changed my pants three times in just one minute, what kind of gold content is this?】
【If you don't court death, you won't die!】
【This kind of operation can only be played at noon!】
【Ah! Don't dare to watch, really don't dare to!】
【God Chu is truly too strong; even if you gave me 400 million, I wouldn't dare to jump!】
【So exciting!】
The first-person perspective of the Micro Sky Eye is processed by AI.
It looks very realistic!
It's just like watching a 3D movie!
Super exciting!
At this moment, many viewers in the live stream room were shocked by this terrifying speed!
To be honest, this scene is really not something just anyone can handle!
Without super-strong psychological quality and professional special training, it's simply impossible to pull off!
If an ordinary person were to go up there, they would likely be ready for their funeral feast on the spot!
By comparison, Chu Chen appeared far more at ease, completely disregarding this extraordinary, high-speed dive!
……
……
……
At the same time!
Yanjing!
Backstage at the China Central Television studio!
At this moment, as the live broadcast deepened, the ratings for "Simulated Crime" finally broke the 60 mark!
Seeing this data, Zhang Yiwen was overjoyed, and he jumped straight up from his chair in excitement!
For a variety show, the ratings reaching 60.
Such a result was something he hadn't even dared to imagine before preparing this program!
Barring any accidents, this number would absolutely become a milestone in his career, becoming an existence unprecedented and unrepeatable!
Before "Simulated Crime" came out, domestic variety reality shows in Huaxia were never really favored by the public.
The content was monotonous, and the scripts were rigid.
To improve ratings, many television stations had to spend high prices to purchase the rights to relatively mature variety shows from abroad to ensure ratings.
Even a great director like Zhang Yiwen had once done such things for the sake of ratings.
At that time, he was fantasizing, hoping that one day he could create an excellent domestic variety show!
Now, because of "Simulated Crime," because of having Chu Chen, this walking traffic-generating machine, his wish was finally realized!
Zhang Yiwen had a premonition that if it continued to broadcast at this pace, this program would absolutely become a world-class live variety show!
Thinking of this, he suppressed the excitement in his heart and hurriedly ordered the several broadcast directors beside him:
"Everyone, during this period, lock the camera onto No. 99 Contestant!"
"Also, Xiao Wang, go notify the Technical Department immediately; tell them they must maintain the network connection for the live stream—no matter what, do not let the broadcast pause!"
……
……
……
The live broadcast continues!
Mexico!
Above Swallow Cave!
After a period of high-speed diving, Chu Chen's free-fall speed soon reached a peak of 1,200 kilometers!
The descent altitude also broke the 8,000-meter mark!
For high-altitude Fixed-point Parachuting, this speed was already terrifying!
Even professional speed parachuting was nothing more than this.
However, Chu Chen's mission this time was not speed parachuting!
Precisely because of this, throughout the entire descent process, Chu Chen did not just seek speed, but instead placed his focus on predicting the orientation, ensuring as much as possible that his descent did not deviate from the pre-determined flight path!
The accuracy of the flight path was the key to whether Fixed-point Parachuting could succeed!
This point was of vital importance for Fixed-point Parachuting!
A miss is as good as a mile!
The entrance to Swallow Cave was not large.
To want to jump from ten thousand meters in the air and hit the target in one go, without predicting the orientation and having an accurate flight path, it was simply impossible to succeed!
In that case, the subsequent parachute deployment and safe landing would be out of the question.
At this moment, the Swallow Cave below could not yet be seen in its entirety; one could only vaguely see the general shape!
At this distance, the margin for error was still quite high.
But to ensure nothing went wrong, Chu Chen dared not have the slightest bit of negligence; he braced himself with twelve times the focus, constantly monitoring the changes in orientation and path, calculating the precise time to enter the pit in his mind!
Based on his current load and descent speed, he would be able to complete the entry into the pit in no more than 20 seconds.
However, this was only under ideal conditions.
If an accident occurred, this time might increase or decrease.
But it shouldn't be far off; it should be right around this interval.
20 seconds of time, for high-altitude Fixed-point Parachuting, is neither long nor short.
But to save time, Chu Chen still decided to say goodbye to these 400 million immediately!
He couldn't take this money with him anyway.
Secondly, the system had no rigid requirement that he must bring these 400 million back.
As long as he snatched it away, that counted as completing the mission.
Thinking of this, Chu Chen did not have the slightest hesitation and decisively unfastened the buckle tied to the banknotes!
"Whoosh!"
The next second!
The moment the buckle was unfastened, one brand-new banknote after another instantly lost control, like distorted mosaics, blurring the entire sky!
Following that, a unique rain of banknotes thus raised its curtain...
