Chapter 40: Pay Me More!
On camera, Sigrid carefully folded the clothes and put them back into the wardrobe one by one.
Although Sigrid did not know the actual value of these clothes, she knew how precious they were. The price of the coat that was specially tailored by the British Royal Family alone was sky-high.
Looking at the wardrobe filled with clothes, Sigrid felt extremely emotional. This closet cost more than her entire life!
“Everyone, are you done? What are these contestants’ standards of living based on their clothes?” the host asked the few professionals.
“Full marks, it’s impeccable. Even some superstars might not have these,” Sigrid said with certainty.
Then, the host looked at the other professionals, but they did not say anything.
What else could they say about clothes that were worth a few hundred million dollars? Could they say that they had a bad standard of living?
Seeing that they said nothing, the host looked at the camera and said, “Dear viewers, it seems that Thomson and Alice do have good taste in clothes. They have all kinds of limited edition clothes and I believe everyone has seen them. Next…”
“Wait a minute.”
At this moment, someone spoke up.
One of the professionals stood up and said indignantly, “I can’t do this anymore. If this goes on, my reputation will be tarnished by your program team.”
Everyone present immediately looked at Rowan, stunned.
Rowan opened the wardrobe and pointed at the coat that was specially tailored by the British Royal Family. He raised his voice. “How do you know these sh*tty clothes are worth millions? Aren’t you deceiving the audience? Or are you playing the audience as a fool?”
“And the other clothes in this wardrobe are all limited edition? How do you get over your conscience? Believe it or not, I can find a random factory to produce them, and they’ll look better than any of these clothes.”
“What’s even more ridiculous is the painting that’s hung outside. You said it’s worth hundreds of millions? I’m sorry, I feel insulted, so I’ve decided to quit.”
Everyone present was so shocked that they looked at Rowan with their eyes wide.
They were in a live broadcast, not a recording!
Although many people thought the same, no one dare say it. After all, they were all working. If they were acting, then so be it because they were getting paid anyway.
Yet now, he had ruined the program team’s jobs by exposing that the show was a fake.
“F*ck, this is so exciting. Someone finally can’t stand it anymore.”
“Hahahaha, is he exposing them?”
“Awesome, now I feel insulted too.”
“With a painting that’s worth hundreds of millions and a piece of clothing that’s worth millions, do you think this is the home of a tycoon in Dubai?”
“I remember this guy. He’s an expert on an antique collection show, and he’s quite famous.”
In the live broadcast room, the audience got excited because of Rowan’s counter-attack. After all, it was not uncommon for shows to expose themselves on live broadcasts.
At this moment, the director was panicking. He quickly walked forward and pulled Rowan aside, asking, “Brother Rowan, what’s going on with you? I invited you to the program and paid you 50,000 dollars.”
Doing the work when you have taken the money was the rule, but to not do any of that and ruin someone else’s job in the process was not professional.
Rowan simply said, “Director, it’s not that I don’t respect you, but it’s your program team that isn’t respecting me. If I don’t say something about the counterfeits in this house, my reputation will be ruined by this live broadcast.”
Rowan was right.
The show was already being ridiculed by tens of thousands of people for the acting, and here he was, praising that everything in this show was real. For this, his reputation would definitely be tarnished.
“Brother Rowan, I’m not trying to trick you, or am I hiding anything from you. Everything in this house is real,” the director said very seriously.
“Don’t bullshit me here. You’re still lying to me.”
Rowan still refused to believe it.
To say that there were hundreds of millions of dollars worth of things in this commercial house, who would believe it?
Anyone with a discerning eye would know that the whole thing made no sense.
Seeing Rowan’s determined attitude, the director understood that it was almost impossible to make Rowan believe him.
After all, the director knew that this was all ridiculous as well.
Thus, the director asked Rowan, “Brother Rowan, tell me. Under what conditions will you consider to rejoin the live broadcast?”
When Rowan heard this, he smiled and said, “The others must’ve received money to speak up for you. Since you want to tarnish my professional ethics, you have to pay me more.”
Immediately, the director cursed in his heart.
This was all for the sake of money?
Nevertheless, the director had to admit defeat now. If Rowan was not willing to rejoin the live broadcast, then the audience would definitely think that everything was made up.
“Okay, I’ll pay you more!”
The director gritted his teeth and agreed to Rowan’s request.
“50,000 dollars and no less.” Rowan stretched out his five fingers.
“Okay!”
50,000 dollars was not a small number, but the director did not care because the show’s viewership rating was still rising. If it continued to increase at this rate, it would definitely break the highest record.
After Rowan had received the money, he walked back to the camera calmly.
The host asked from the side, “Mr. Rowan, why did you say those words just now?”
“Ahem.” Rowan cleared his throat before he said, “I’m sorry, audience and staff members. I was too rash just now. I personally don’t know enough about those aspects, and that’s why I was mistaken. Please don’t take it to heart.”
Taking money from others and helping them to avert the disaster was what Rowan was good at.
The host said with an awkward smile, “Of course, Mr. Rowan is an antique expert, so this is understandable.”
Mistaken? He was deliberately trying to cause trouble!
Even a fool would be able to tell.
Since he left with the director just now, he had probably cut a deal.
