On the top of the desert, see the burning ＂soul＂ of the sixth season of ＂Extreme Challenge＂

　　"Ahead is the highest mountain of Singing Sand Mountain. Considering the difficulty, you can also take a car to the camp!"

　　After listening to the suggestions of the program team, the six members chose to walk without hesitation – the flag symbolizing "Extreme Challenge" on the top of the desert was fluttering in the wind, guiding them to work together to complete a seemingly impossible challenge.

　　Tonight, the eighth issue of Dragon TV’s "Extreme Challenge" is themed on "Desert Brotherhood", telling a story of unity, breakthrough and fearlessness: in the vast desert, the yellow sand undulates, the scorching heat follows like a shadow, and the bright flags seem to be very close, but they need to climb many sand dunes to reach them. Along the way, the extremely challenging men’s group supported each other and cheered each other up. Relying on the belief of "never abandoning, never giving up" and "fighting together, we will definitely win", they interpreted their vows step by step: "The six of us together are the most precious!"

　　The production team used a unique and extreme Dunhuang style to condense a "very manly" life path. Shi Jianing, deputy director of the Oriental Satellite TV Center and general director of the sixth season of "Extreme Challenge", said in an interview: "This is indeed a big challenge, they can choose to give up, but they decided to persevere. This journey is very much like an outlet for them to express their hearts, to externalize the brotherhood they have accumulated since forming the group this season. They are not only here to record a show, but also to show everyone that this is a team with a burning soul."

　　On the highest mountain of Mingsha Mountain,The extremely picky boy group "group soul" flutters

　　Dunhuang, as a place where cultures blend and converge, contains the spiritual consensus needed to build a community with a shared future, such as exchange, understanding, cooperation, tolerance, and win-win. "Extreme Challenge" chose to start a special outdoor team building here, which is similar to the trip to Wulong, Chongqing in the fifth season.

　　That time, what was memorable was the spirit of unity and friendship, and the courage to move forward. This time, when the extremely picky boy group walked from the Crescent Moon Spring to Mingsha Mountain, it was easy to remind people of Xuanzang, who had a life-threatening life, walking through here, and the business travelers of the Silk Road walking through here. In this hard journey, only brothers who are united and have the courage to work together can conquer the boundless vastness. As Lei Jiayin said: "If we don’t unite today, we really can’t get out of this desert."

　　To survive in an arid zone, water supplies were especially important. Before departure, the extremely picky men’s team divided into three groups, and through the challenge mission, they each stocked up with a wide range of bottled water. To ensure that everyone could consume water in time, at each supply point, the team that gained the lead would prepare ice watermelons for other brothers without reservation, and distribute their own bottled water. For example, the domineering Guo Jingfei said: "Leave it to them, they will definitely be thirsty when they come over!"

　　As the terrain became steeper and steeper, the brothers were so tired that they couldn’t catch their breath. They used their hands and feet to crawl in a state of "embarrassment". Seeing that Xiao Yue Yue was unable to move, the other brothers took the initiative to help him lift his heavy backpack. Everyone shouted, "We are the soul of the group today, and it is impossible to defeat us no matter how you want." "There are no three words’can’t ‘today" to cheer for the team. Jia Nailiang, who was always in front of the road, stopped at the finish line: "It is meaningless for me to climb to the top alone, I want to wait for you to climb to the top together!"

　　The desert has territory, and the walkers have no boundaries. When they climbed up the sand dunes hand in hand, shoulder to shoulder, singing loudly, the little figure was like a burning flame in the big desert. That scene was beautiful to the heart.

　　On the highest peak of Singing Sand Mountain, there was not only the "Soul Flag" flying in "Extreme Challenge", but also the "most precious thing" for each of them. After walking through the desert, unplugging the flag, and returning to the open-air camp, they ate barbecues and shared precious memories of each other’s growing up years: a college admission letter, a bracelet gifted by their master, a letter written to their mother 30 years ago, a book that influenced them… And on this night when the brilliant galaxy could be seen above their heads, because of a special group walk, they integrated into each other’s life memories and created a new "precious" together.

　　The most precious thing in the desert was the plants. A particularly memorable part was that the extremely picky boy group donated the number of steps they walked that day to the ant forest, and a forest ranger planted a shuttle tree in the camp, representing the growth and germination of "Extreme Challenge" in the desert Gobi, allowing a green symbol of vitality to continue to spread.

　　On roads that no one has stepped on, brothers will go together; on difficult peaks, brothers will fight together! "Although this issue is a bit tiring, it is worth it," they said. Shi Jianing said: "This is also the emotion that’Extreme Challenge ‘always wants to convey to everyone. No matter what kind of challenge they face, the friendship between brothers will support them to exceed their limits. The so-called’soul group’ is not shouted out, when facing extreme environments, we can feel the sincerity and heat in their hearts more."

　　Let them go fighting fighting,What is it?

　　"That road was very difficult to walk. It was a hot day and the sun was shining. When we faced that mountain, our hearts were bottomless, even though our director team had been walking in that environment for almost a week."

　　In an interview, Shi Jianing still has a lot of feelings, "At that time, we were worried that their physical strength could not support this challenge, and we proposed not to go, but the’soul flag ‘in front of them inspired their belief. This challenge brought us a lot of emotion, and they have been encouraging each other and not giving up. I think this is the soul of" Extreme Challenge ". Their unity is radiated from the inside out, and you can see the simple truth in every bit."

　　Before you know it, "Extreme Challenge" has been in its sixth season. When Shi Jianing took over the baton of the director for the first time last year, he did not hide that he was "under a lot of pressure." "In fact, just like the name of this show, we are always facing extreme challenges, and this year is even more extreme than last year. As the earliest show to resume work in outdoor variety shows, many situations were unclear at that time. We almost completely overturned the original shooting plan. Under the premise of ensuring safety, we actively responded to social needs and made many dynamic adjustments. We hope to give full play to our energy as a national variety show and contribute to the special 2020."

　　From the first phase to the streets to collect the wishes of the public, on behalf of the audience to pay tribute to the medical workers who paid silently during the epidemic; to the form of variety shows, calling on the whole people to exercise, participate in live streaming, and help resume work and production; to the next 5G era, nightlife and other themes, the sixth season of "Extreme Challenge" is deeply in line with the macro background of 2020, closely focusing on the hot topics of social life, while bringing joy to the audience, but also delivering strong energy and confidence for everyone.

　　What made many viewers relish was that in the fifth episode of the program, Lei Jiayin, Yue Yunpeng, Wang Xun, Jia Nailiang, Guo Jingfei, and Deng Lun became "brothers who cut through thorns and thorns". They studied hard and practiced hard, and brought a well-blessed "Fighting Fighting Go" to the audience. The hilarious singing that broke through the age conveyed the unyielding perseverance of riding the wind and waves.

　　Admittedly, this season’s "Extreme Challenge" suffered some controversy at the beginning of go LIVE due to the adjustment of the lineup; but the audience soon found that the old and new boy group quickly merged and continued to burst with surprises. Especially when they entered the live stream to try public welfare delivery, they actually sold 6.61 million yuan worth of agricultural products in just 40 minutes, attracting 13.77 million audience to place orders for love – more than successfully challenging the "Queen of Delivery" Viya, what shocked everyone was that a show could leverage such a powerful public welfare energy. Subsequently, the "618 Super Show" with "Extreme Challenge" as an important content fulcrum helped the consumer "battle of confidence" in the context of the 618 mid-year promotion, achieving a double explosion of brand value and commercial value.

　　So, what is it that makes the extremely picky boy group fighting fighting fighting go on?

　　Through six years of development, "Extreme Challenge" has planted in everyone’s mind the brand mentality of "always keeping pace with the times, always sharing the same fate as the society, and always sharing the same pulse with the people". Every extreme challenge goes far beyond the scope of games and programs, and has become a spiritual cultural symbol bearing social significance. In the special year of 2020, the extremely picky boy group came together as a member of the "National Variety", and practiced a mission that was full of hardships but extremely glorious – the process of their going all out and working together to challenge is the process of accumulating energy and transferring confidence.

　　So, the Mingsha Mountain they climbed with their bare hands was not just a mountain? There was no road farther than their feet, and no mountain higher than a person. They were led by the "Soul Flag", and it was also the belief they hoped to convey to the society that "if we fight together, we will definitely win".

　　"I still remember the first episode of this season, when the Bund building was brightly lit, and when the smiling faces of the medical workers were projected on the big screen one by one, I could see a sense of heartfelt pride in each of their faces. I think from that moment on, they were aroused with a sense of sublime. They knew that this was a show with temperature, energy and mission," Shi Jianing said. It was certainly a difficult challenge, but such a gathering is destined to be a life encounter worth cherishing and cherishing.
