Chapter 40

Views:

Survivor's behind-the-scenes personal interviews include what the contestants have to say about other players, and instant strategy ideas. And after these personal interviews are broadcast on the show, the audience can more clearly and intuitively understand whether a person is trying to fish in troubled waters in a game, or whether he is well-informed and can explain the relationship between alliance members.

The filming of the behind-the-scenes interviews began shortly after the contestants arrived at the camp, and each contestant was called away individually by the camera crew. In the Beauty Tribe, when Brian, Mario, and Austin went into the bushes to collect the leaves and branches of the palm trees for the shelter, the three women in the tribe were called separately.

Carmelita looked a lot more embarrassed than at the beginning. She sat in front of the camera and talked: "I didn't expect our tribe to be full of handsome guys and beauties! This gave me a considerable sense of crisis. Originally I planned to Use my personal charm to conquer a man as the strongest ally. But the average eight-point man likes a ten-point woman..."

"Mario is arrogant and domineering, it's not a good choice! He doesn't even have a gentleman!" she said indignantly: "And Austin looks a little silly, but that Brian is good. Still on the boat When I was around, he kept looking at me, I think he should be interested in me. I think he must be bisexual!"

After this passage was broadcast, the audience who saw it were amused by Carmelita's narcissistic words. And when this woman was still full of love between her sons and daughters and wanted to use that unreliable beautician to win over Brian, Brian had already formed a relationship with Mario and Austin, two men whom she despised. alliance.

Jenny was the second, scowling as she sat in front of the camera. "Although I'm acting very well with Carmelita, she's really too big! But I can only pretend to be with her now. Because Anna doesn't seem to be very close, when I was rushing to the camp, I I quarreled with those three men again."

"The opening was so bad, I really regret my impatience at that time. I still can't hold back my temper. It seems that my mother said that I would die first and be eliminated. It is very likely to come true. ." She said deflatedly, feeling a little self-defeating.

When it was Anna's turn, she didn't complain at length in front of the camera, but calmly analyzed: "I think when the three of them are together, Brian will definitely not say nothing. Maybe they have formed a solid relationship at this time. The alliance. But even then, there are only three of them. In order to get the majority of the votes, they will definitely win one of the girls."

"And I think I'm the most likely option. Maybe joining them would be the most outcast perimeter player in the league, but I've got two more chances before I can change things."

"Carmelita and Jenny annoyed Mario before, and I will guarantee that they will be eliminated before me. This is my only advantage." After she finished speaking, she nodded with the photographers and went back again. Trying to make a fire in front of the pile of branches.

Because of Anna's performance in personal interviews, she accumulated a lot of fans for herself from the beginning. A beautiful woman with face and wisdom will never be unloved. She saw the situation clearly from the beginning, and immediately after that, she secretly allied with Brian and used her beauty to get close to Austin, making her the second most popular contestant in the Beauty Tribe after the show aired.

Wait until the boys' alliance is over and Yoyo returns. The film crew invited the three boys over one after another with a look of excitement and fun. It is not uncommon for the survivors to form an alliance immediately after the start of the game, but the faction is immediately clear as soon as the game starts, and it seems that there is no possibility of change, but it is very rare.

Because Mario had just pulled the two men to his side and thought he had the initiative in the league, he was in a particularly happy mood at this time.

"Yes, I have already agreed with Austin and Brian. In order to preserve the strength of the tribe and fight against the power tribe. We must try our best to ensure the vitality of the beautiful tribe. The alliance of three men is the best choice. Maybe Brian It's nice to have another Anna, but that's fine with the other two blondes. They're perfect for a city party!"

Austin has always been a bit silly and no longer in the situation, and the photographer who was shooting with them knew when they shot their alliance scene. But at that time, I could comfort myself, maybe Austin was just pretending to be stupid, but he still knew the current situation in his heart!

But during the filming of the personal interview, Austin was finally confirmed to be really stupid.

"To be honest, I really don't know why I was pulled into an alliance just after the game started... Mario is really worried, and Brian is right. I feel like how did I get to another world?" Sting stared into his blue eyes and dipped his blonde hair innocently.

"But Anna is quite sexy! Just now she deliberately struck up a conversation with me. I think maybe I can have an affair here!"

In the end, it was Brian's turn to help Anna raise the fire. Now he is sweating profusely, and his soft red hair has been sticking to his forehead with the sweat. But even so, he still gave people a feeling of being a troubled noble boy.

"At the beginning of the game, before all the players were allowed to communicate with each other, I observed all five people in the tribe. In my opinion, Ana is a very smart woman, and her ability to check her senses is also very good. So In addition to the superficial alliance with Mario and Austin, I also attracted Ana, who should be a member of the alliance's periphery, to form an invisible alliance."

"Because Mario is a standard alpha male, although he is very restrained and does not appear to be authoritarian and instructive, in our alliance, he will definitely demand the main right to speak. Otherwise, the stability of the alliance will definitely be a concern. ' Brian shook his head.

"But if I don't have a certain right to speak at the beginning, once the two victims are thrown away, then I will be in danger. Although it is not a desperate situation, it is not in my character to not deal with hidden dangers. Therefore, it is better to Let Mario stand at the top as a target. As long as Austin gradually becomes dissatisfied with Mario's strength, then Anna and I can remove him."

The film crew was taken aback by Brian's analysis of the alliance in the tribe, and the photographer who had been following them before couldn't help but quickly asked, "Aren't you afraid to win over Austin's Anna, you will end up with Austin? Alliance, abandoned you?"

"If Anna is smart enough, then I think the probability is less than fifty percent. But I don't think the Beauty Tribe will lose to a situation where there are only three people before the merger. And I am sure that after the merger, Grasp the situation again. There are too few people in the beauty tribe, and there are not many choices for me."

"Why do you think the Beauty Tribe will not lose to a situation where there are only three people left? You must know that the other two tribes have the most distinct advantages besides beauty. They will use these advantages in the immunity contest. Go up." The film crew asked again.

"There are three tribes here. The Wisdom tribe is weak in physical strength, and the Strength tribe is weak in mental strength. And I think the beauty tribe is not only beautiful." Brian replied to the photographer with a smile.

"The three men of the Beauty Tribe, including me, we all go to the gym regularly for professional reasons. So even if we are not physically as strong as the Power Tribe, we are much higher than the Wisdom Tribe. Compared with the Wisdom Tribe's brain power , Although they are known as smart people in their daily life, their intelligence is really in those special talents. There are not many almighty people."

After Brian finished analyzing the situation within the tribe, he did not hesitate to point out the difference in strength outside the tribe. That kind of confidence almost made the photographer think that today was not the first day of the competition, but the second half of the competition.

"So, the Beauty Tribe is moderate, but because of the moderation, it is able to compete in front of the two tribes with distinct advantages and distinct weaknesses." When Brian said these words, the calm and slow speed of speech, There is absolutely no doubt that he is right or wrong.

And his analysis proved its correctness in subsequent games.

Brian Moss, this is a terrible person. This is a new understanding of this reality TV star who came out of America's Next Top Model after the broadcast. If it is said that the American supermodel, he only showed his beauty to the outside world. So on the reality show of Survivor, he wears the label of a beautiful tribe, but he shows his wisdom to the audience.

The top students at Stanford University are not joking. The photographer who followed Brian all the way, also sighed in his heart. Brian not only failed to let Carmelita, who had seen America's Next Top Model, but also knew his background as a psychology student, tell his strengths. On the contrary, from the very beginning, he thought of a way to include Carmelita, who knew him the most in the beautiful tribe, as the victim.

Because of Carmelita's squeamishness, Mario and Austin have no urge to chat with her now. Originally, the film crew thought that the beautiful tribe would be the most high-profile tribe to chat at night, but now it is completely the opposite, and the night is silent. And Brian maintains a good relationship with Carmelita on the surface.

In this way, in Carmelita's view, Brian was the boy in the tribe who seemed to have the best relationship with her. Then in the following games, even if she was in danger of being thrown out, the first person she thought of to win over would only be Brian, who had already regarded her as a dead person.

After the start of the competition, the Power Tribes introduced their names and ages to each other as soon as they landed, and then the most suitable candidate was chosen. Veteran Dillon took the lead with a map.

There are not many intrigues in the power tribe, and everyone basically follows the principle of talking less nonsense and doing things first. But even so, because of the relationship between age and occupation, they were soon divided into two groups of actions.

Dillon and policewoman Sandra, two people who basically do more and talk less, naturally combine together. Dave, a strong old man in his fifties, and Jane, a middle-aged woman, also became the two people who could chat the most. The rest, Tina and Paul, quickly got tired of being together because of hormones.

Maybe he was used to doing heavy work on weekdays, except that Tina, who had dreadlocks and tattoos on her arms, was a little sorry for her strong and wild appearance. The tribal shelter was quickly built with the efforts of others. It's even harder for Jane and Dave to make a fire and cook.

After all the things of the power tribe were done, the sky turned dark. Tribe members gather around the campfire to chat and get to know each other better. The taciturn Dillon just leaned on the rice bucket and did not participate.

The light of the fire on his clenched jaw made Sandra sneak a few glances at him. Dillon felt like a lion resting on the grassland. Although it seems to be relaxed without defense, it is a predator that can burst out with amazing power.

Everyone winked and didn't intend to provoke him, because it seemed that it was not easy to chat. But his professional background as a veteran of the military has deepened his credibility as a whole and played down the defensive suspicions others have of him. So there's nothing wrong with being silent at this time.

Dillon Sago served in the U.S. Navy SEALs and was a captain before retiring due to injury. But the people in the tribe didn't know that much, and Dillon only told them that he was a retired professional soldier.

After all, his unit is a special force, and speaking out would make people feel that he is a physical threat. Even in the power tribe, the actual combat troops are acceptable, and the strength of the special forces is to completely crush the strength of everyone.

Dillon was shot in the left arm during a mission, and the healing treatment was not in place due to the problems of the combat environment at that time. The result is that his left hand is no longer as nimble as it used to be, which indirectly affects his fighting skills and ability to hold a gun. Therefore, he resolutely declined the invitation of the army to return to China to become a training instructor, and was discharged directly.

Since there is no place for him in the army, he does not want to occupy that position because of the compensation of his superiors. And after returning to China, if he is still in the army, he will rarely have personal time to arrange other things.

He needs time, not only because he has been away from home more and more over the years, but also because he wants to help the families of the fallen comrades in the army.

Because the special forces screened the team members, they liked to choose soldiers with few relatives and not so great external fetters. Therefore, most of the sacrificed comrades-in-arms, and their families rely on government subsidies alone, will inevitably lead a very hard life.

Since Dillon was discharged from the army, he has been thinking about how he can get enough money for them to live comfortably in a short period of time. After all, his salary in the army is not much. Fortunately, he eventually stumbled across an advertisement for this season's Survivor recruiting contestants in the newspaper.

Survivor sounds like a game of survival in the wild, and if that's the case, the million-dollar jackpot is a steal for him. But in fact, what this game really tests is your social skills, and your survival skills can only be ranked second. It was not until he entered the game and saw the first elimination experienced by the Wisdom Tribe that he realized that maybe he was not suitable for this game.

Forge alliances with different people, and deal with enemies in a bloodless way. This kind of social game is definitely not suitable for him who is too reticent to participate. Our Captain Dillon Sago made a big mistake in his first big decision after leaving the unit.

I have been a soldier for eight years, obeying orders, performing tasks, and training daily. Dillon's social nerves haven't been used for years. In fact, such a strict self-discipline soldier did not have post-war traumatic syndrome in the end, and his psychological assessor also thought it was amazing.

After all, when other soldiers go out to rest, what they like most is to go to nightclubs to go high, get drunk, play and write exciting outdoor sports and the like. But Dillon seldom took vacations, and even on vacations, he seldom attended the carnival invitations of his comrades.

Ugh. With a sigh in his heart, Dillon left the personal interview without saying a word under the silent onlookers of the film crew.

But to say that this reality show is boring is not the case. Dillon found two guys that interested him after the Immunity Challenge the next day! Especially Brian Moss of the Beauty Tribe, who took this social game to the next level.

Spy war! This Dillon is full of familiarity. Maybe it would be good to start with Brian and double-insure yourself.

Although he is not good at words, our Captain Dillon is a man who coexists with sullenness and black belly. The social nerves are dying out, which doesn't prevent Dillon's deep black belly.

So when it was the third day of the bonus game, Dillon finally gave himself psychological construction and approached Brian Moss.

"Hi, hello." His stiff face forced a smile in the corner of his eyes, "My name is Dillon Sago, I heard them call you Brian? Let's get to know you."

You and Spencer Red of the Wisdom Tribe have known each other for a long time. I have seen through your secret alliance. Do you want to cooperate with me? Of course, these words were temporarily held in the black heart under his belly. How can the clever leopard escape the big flesh of the lion, the king of the grassland

On the other side, Spencer Red, who was forced to take a vacation by a group of bau team members and was forced to pack up and join the filming of the survivors, felt miserable in his heart.

Fortunately, there is still a acquaintance of Brian Moss, otherwise, if he is a socially dysfunctional otaku to participate in social games, can the world still be friendly? No, not anymore. Serial killers are everywhere, and there are so many terrorists in a world like dogs, how can it be good

Rhett looked dumbfounded, and his face looked extraordinarily green. With such a person mixed in with a group of people in the Wisdom Tribe, he became a particularly innocent youngest. Of course, the people of the Wisdom Tribe didn't actually know that he was a profiler for bau.

All they know is that Rhett is a genius boy and a nerd. Three doctorates, two masters... Young people who can only read books, young people who have not yet experienced the world, don't have to worry about it at all! Pull it into your own alliance, it looks so easy to deceive anyway.

If he didn't tell the truth, in fact, even if the big guy from Bau didn't tell him before he came, he wouldn't be so stupid... Although his EQ is a little lower, it's impossible for someone with an IQ of 187 to get started. Even if the theme of social games is social, there is still logic to follow. If there is something logical to follow, Rhett can analyze it roughly. perhaps…

I made an appointment with Brian before, and exchanged information about their respective tribes when they met. So Rhett could only sneak in the moonlight after everyone fell asleep, and poked a lot of little passwords in the diary he brought, intending to give it to Brian in the immunity game the next day.

Then the next day's immunity match was lost unexpectedly, and Rhett felt that he was cheated by Brian again, and he was sent to the island of exile. Maybe what he thought of Brian was completely wrong before, this guy is completely antisocial personality disorder! egoism!

But even so, when Reid was still hungry and tired on the island of exile, he carefully searched for the statue of the hidden immunity god according to the clues.

On the kraft paper found in a small wooden box, there was a hint of ethereal literature and art: At the Last Supper, perhaps the chance of reversal of things was because of the lack of Judas.

The Last Supper, the world famous oil painting. What does it mean to mention this here? Rhett was sitting on the beach watching the sunset in the distance. The sunset is infinitely good, but it is only near dusk. If there is no fire at night, should I be cold to death? Reid's thoughts went astray. Then he suddenly widened his eyes, and was taken aback by his hard-fought photography.

"The last supper, thirteen people... those stones!" Reid suddenly thought of the stone that he almost tripped over when he landed just now. He turned around and hurried to the pile of stones, counting for a long time.

But there are still fifteen of them going back and forth. What went wrong? Rhett stared at the pair of stones, thinking with one hand around his chest and one hand on his chin. And the photographer who followed him was sweating a long time ago. Should he be said to be a member of the Wisdom Tribe? How can the reasoning ability be so good, a last supper can think of this.

Fortunately, he didn't realize it was the shadow's problem...

"Shadows!! There are exactly thirteen shadows of stones in the sunset, and the largest one blocks the shadows of the two small stones behind it!" Reid quickly came to a conclusion after thinking for a minute. "The Last Supper was originally intended for this purpose, because after sunset it's dark?"

"So... a chance to reverse?" Reid smiled and turned around, forcing the photographer who followed him from behind to quickly back up and change angles. "Maybe it's not that complicated. Inversion means turning around. With one Judas missing, it's the number twelve."

"Twelve steps!" Reid turned his head and smiled at the photographer's camera. He is very proud of the reasoning ability he learned in the fbi, and it is also useful in social games.

Picking up the shovel from the small wooden box where he got the clue, Rhett turned from the largest stone that covered the shadow of the other two stones, walked twelve steps straight, and digged.

The statue of Hidden Immunity was not buried very deep. After digging down half a meter, Reid's shovel touched something hard. Jumped into the pit and dug out a cloth bag. When the cloth bag is opened, it is really a statue of the sea god made according to the local mythological totem.

Next to the statue is a note: Congratulations on getting the Hidden Immunity Idol. The owner has the right to decide whether to use the idol before the votes are counted at the tribal meeting. If the person with the highest number of votes is the owner of the statue, after the statue is used, the contestant with the second most votes will be eliminated.
