"Don't get excited, Miss Margaret." Zhang Dongcheng shrugged, smiled at Margaret, then turned his head and said to Frank who was thinking hard: "You can ask Mr. Blaise for help, but this You only have one chance to ask for help, once you use it, you can’t use it again.”

Franke scratched his hair and thought for a long time, but decided to use the method Zhang Dongcheng said: "I'm asking for help, I can't remember the answer to this question."

"Yes, but Mr. Blaise's answer is not necessarily correct. Mr. Frank, I hope you can know this." Zhang Dongcheng laughed, which made Frank, who could ask for help, blush again.

"The Statue of Liberty is 46 meters high, and the base is 93 meters." Blaise said to Frank with a suppressed smile.

"Yes, yes, it's only 93 meters high! Choose C, I choose C!" Frank suddenly realized, and shouted excitedly.

"Congratulations, you got it right. You now have $1,000. The next question will be a little harder, but the prize is $3,000."

Do you want to continue answering?"

"I choose to continue answering!" Frank was obviously a bit of a gambler, so he followed after gritting his teeth.

Frank quickly found the answers to the next few questions. His prize money had accumulated to more than 100,000 U.S. dollars. There was a large pile of checks on the table in front of him, which made his face flush with excitement. Constantly wiping sweat.

The front desk lady Margaret and assistant Alexander, just watching from the side, felt that they were about to pass out, and they were even more nervous than Frank.

"OK, then I ask you, which scientific inventor invented wireless telegraphy? A: Fulton B: Einstein C: Edison D: Marconi"

"Mr. Frank, I want to remind you that this question is correct, and you can get half a million dollars!" Zhang Dongcheng pushed the check to Frank, making him sweat even more.

The atmosphere was so tense that it was about to freeze, but Blaise burst into laughter. It turns out that not everyone is capable of taking away a million dollars!

"It's C, it's Edison." After thinking about it, Frank couldn't think of it, so he had to choose one at random.

"Congratulations. Wrong answer. It's D, the wireless telegraph invented by Marconi. I'm sorry, Mr. Frank, you can only take away 20,000 US dollars. This one million US dollars, others still have a chance! Zhang Dongcheng laughed loudly, and Frank patted his forehead annoyedly, brushing past the half a million dollars.

Blaze was the first to jump up: "Mr. Smith, I understand, this show is really super attractive, and it will definitely blow up the ratings of our TV station!"

Hearing Blaise's words, Zhang Dongcheng smiled slightly, and handed Blaze a check of one million dollars in his hand: "OK, don't wait for everything, do it yourself, do it right away!

I believe that within ten episodes, the whole of the United States will be crazy about this game, and the TV ratings will definitely go up to a higher level!"

"It doesn't need ten installments, maybe five installments will be enough!" Blaise accepted the check, but confidently issued a military order to Zhang Dongcheng!

"OK, I will fully support you. In the first three episodes, I will let Jason Statham, Keanu Reeves, and Nicolas Cage participate in each episode, so that the eyes of the whole United States will focus on us. ZDC TV!"

Among the 15 questions, there are "safety lines" in the 5th and 10th questions. Answering the safety line questions correctly can guarantee you will get the insurance line bonus. Once the question is answered incorrectly, the player will receive a bonus for passing the insurance line at the end. Assuming that the contestant answers the wrong question 9, he can get the first insurance line (that is, question 5) bonus; if the contestant answers the wrong question 12, he can get the bonus of the second insurance line (ie question 10). bonus. If you answer wrong before reaching the first insurance line, you will not get a bonus.

Competitors can use 3 tips to help answer questions when they encounter problems. The 3 tips include "50:50" (removing 2 out of 4 choices, leaving a 1-to-1 answer), "calling old friends" (letting contestants call relatives and friends outside the venue, The time limit is 30 seconds) and "Ask the audience" (the audience in the studio votes to choose the answer in their minds, and the results are for the contestants' reference). Each of the above 3 tips can only be used once, but multiple times can be used consecutively for the same question.

Participants can quit the game at any time, and can win the prize for answering the correct question at the end. (Example: If the contestant quits the game at the 12th question, he can get the bonus for the 11th question.)

That night, ZDC TV crazily promoted this program on its own TV station, one after another, the titles were all one sentence: Who wants to be a millionaire!

The publicity is so intense that even I want to see what's going on."

"Just to take a look? Nicholas, why don't you go and experience it for yourself?" Zhang Dongcheng shrugged and said with some amusement.

"Why, you invited me to participate?" Nicholas rolled his eyes, and it was obvious that he was playing tricks.

"Of course, if you are a big-name star, superstar, if you can participate, it will create a lot of topical effect. Naturally, I sincerely invite you to participate!" Zhang Dongcheng was also full of evil ideas, and he fought against Nicholas.

"Of course it's okay to participate, but I'm a big star, a big Hollywood star, you know Smith!" Nicholas grinned and laughed.

"Want an appearance fee? No problem, answer the question correctly, and get one million!" Zhang Dongcheng snapped his fingers, and poured a glass of red wine for Nicholas.

"I heard that both Keanu Reeves and Jason agreed to participate?" Nicholas smiled, and turned the topic to another side.

"Of course, they participated, and they're not a philistine like you, they confiscated my money!" Zhang Dongcheng hummed dissatisfied.

"Haha, life needs dollars, and a good life needs dollars even more. There is nothing wrong with me doing this. Well, I don't want a million, friendly price, I will play for 100,000 dollars!" Nicholas is really thick-skinned, but compared to With his fame and worth, one hundred thousand dollars is really a friendship price, which left Zhang Dongcheng speechless.
