Global Livestream: I Won 200 with Just a Hatchet

Chen Ye, a biology student at Yanda University, is accidentally swept into the live global broadcast of the Seven-Star Mountain Wilderness Survival Challenge.

Starting with nothing but a hatchet and no supplies, he must face deadly threats like torrential rain, wild animals, and starvation, while competing for the two-million-yuan grand prize. This isn’t just a life-or-death challenge to raise enough money for his mother’s surgery; it’s also a comeback unfolding before the eyes of the entire internet.

In the semifinals, contestants can compete alone or team up in pairs. In the final, all previously obtained supplies are forbidden, and contestants must start from scratch with only the designated tools. A fire must pass inspection by the judges, and any violation means disqualification. The prize money rises in stages: 20,000 yuan after 10 days and 100,000 after 30. Every step is a matter of life, death, and fortune.

There’s no golden finger and no superpowers. Chen Ye relies only on what he learned in class and the wilderness skills his grandfather taught him. He builds a shelter, filters water, makes a stove, and catches fish in the dead of night, gritting his teeth through loneliness and fear.

Billions of viewers around the world watch in real time, filling the screen with comments. Some doubt he can pull it off; others are moved to tears by his perseverance.

From a rookie who keeps landing on his backside to a survivor facing off against wild boars, can Chen Ye make it through the top ten in the semifinals and advance, then claim the two-million-yuan prize?

A wilderness survival story gritty enough to feel real, a comeback witnessed by the whole internet. Watch a college student take on Seven-Star Mountain with nothing but a hatchet!
