Dreams come true - Idol Producer Fan Chengcheng FF (RESQ SAGA PART 1)

68.

Two days after my talk with Jackson, I was fully recovered. I had rehearsed also the previous day but my throat was still a little sore.

During breakfast, the staff had told us to go to a certain place for a surprise, so we were all extremely excited. It was the day prior to eliminations, so we all hoped it would lift up the spirits even just a little.

Once we were there, we saw one of those machines that you have to punch and show you the strength you have. Immediately, we knew this would be a competition. 

I was really confident in my strength although I was a girl. As I was really tall and danced and worked out to stay fit, I was quite strong. I was really excited to see if I would be able to beat any of them.

Once we were all seated, Yanjun and Zhangjing appeared with script cards on their hands.

"Hello everyone, I am your MC for today." He greeted us. "Your favourite, Lin Yanjun!"

"You wish!" I yelled as everyone laughed and he did an <I'm going to slap you> motion making us all laugh.

"I'm your favourite MC, Xiao You (A/N: For those who don't know Chinese, Xiao means little.)" Zhangjing said and sent us a finger heart.

"Today, through this machine, we are going to elect the guy with the greatest strength." Yanjun explained.

"Dude, you know I exist too, right?!" I yelled as I stood up.

"But Lin, it's clear that we will beat you!" Said Qin Fen from his seat.

"I'm going to prove your male chauvinist ass wrong." I said looking at him with murderous eyes.

"You are so dead, Fen!" Yelled Xingjie and they all laughed. "If I have learnt something over these few months is to always take her seriously!"

"Well, without further ado, let's quickly go through the game rules." Zhangjing said trying to calm us all down. "Every trainee can-"

He pronounced the word wrong making us all laugh.

"Let me try again. 1,2,3!" He said and attempted to do it once again. "Every trainee has a chance to challenge this Punch Machine and the person with the highest score can sit on our throne!"

"I have a question!" Said suddenly Xukun. "What reward does the first place have?"

"Today, other than sitting on this throne, we also have a gift for the strongest man. " Yanjun said. "Or woman! The punch king or queen."

"iQiYi VIP for two years?" Asked Justin making me laugh.

"Slightly more expensive than that." Yanjun answered. "I think that prize is mostly the symbol of being a man."

"Damn you male chauvinistic asses..." I muttered and Chengcheng laughed.

"Also, I think it signifies the pride of a man." Zhangjing added.

"Unless they come out with a flipping viagra or something, this is getting a teensy little bit tiring." I muttered again and both Chencheng and Zeren who were close to me had to cover their mouths not to laugh out loud.

"Without further ado, let's quickly proceed with the game!" Zhangjing said and we all clapped.

"Anyone who feels they can break the machine by hitting it?" Yanjun asked and Xiao Gui raised his hand making us all cheer for him.

Instead of hitting it like a normal person would, he climbed on top of the machine and hit it directly making us all look at him confused but amused at the same time. He also only got sixty which made it even funnier.

He asked for one more chance and we all agreed, so he tried once again (this time acting like a normal human being) and got 475.

Next was Lu Dinghao followed by Qian Zhenghao, Yu Mingjun, Zhou Rui and Cai Xukun who didn't manage to beat Xiao Gui's score.

Then came Bu Fan and ended up getting a solid 485 kicking Xiao Gui out of the throne and continuing with his incessant bullying towards him.

Xingjie tried to avenge him and got the exact same score as Bu Fan. To break the tie, they both tried once again and Bu Fan got 490, sending Xingjie out.

Next were Dong Yanlei, Xu Kaihao, Ding Zeren, Zhang Dayuan, Wang Ziyi, Jeffrey, Chengcheng, Zhengting, Yanchen, Qin Fen, Lou Zibo and  Xu Shengen. They all didn't beat him either.

Then came Linong and surprised everyone as he got 490 too. They tried to tie-break, but ended up getting the same scores, so they both sat down on the throne.

Justin then challenged them and got 490 too, so he sat down with them making it look like a family photo.

Zhu Yunyi then challenged them getting 495 and kicking them all out in an instant. Then came Yuntian and also got 495.

"It's now time for the final match." Yanjun announced. "We'll see which brother wins."

They then both challenged each other for the last time. First was Yunyi and then Yuntian.

Yunyi ended up getting 475 and Yuntian 485 making him the winner of the competition. They gave him a belt like the one's in boxing, making him the punch king.

After we had all calmed down, Yanjun suddenly spoke up.

"Now, I think it's time for Lin to come up, don't you think so, Zhangjing?" Asked Yanjun and they all cheered. "Let's see if she's as strong as she says."

I then stood up as they all cheered and began stretching.

"To all my girls out there, this one's for you." I said to the camera and winked before getting into position.

"Let's see if you can beat him, Lin." Said cockily Bu Fan.

"Oh, you'll see." I said and got into position. They were all extremely silent making it even more nerve-wracking.

I then breathed in and decidedly aimed towards the target at full speed. After hitting it I had to rub my wrist as it had been slightly painful.

Zhangjing covered the score with his script quickly and turned towards the boys.

"Anyone wants to bet?" He asked them
