Early in the morning, the wife of the British Prime Minister was awakened by a phone call. The British Prime Minister learned that the popular British princess Susanna, a celebrity on Facebook and Twitter, had been kidnapped. The kidnapper's request is that the Prime Minister must have sex with a pig at 4 pm that day and broadcast it live to the whole world, otherwise the princess will be killed. Due to the wide spread of Youtube, Facebook and Twitter, the public soon knew all this. Although the government issued a ban on media reports, savvy media still lured cabinet officials into breaking news by bribing them. On the other hand, the prime minister's office was trying to find someone to replace it, but it was spoiled by Twitter sent by a staff member present. Because the kidnappers provided the media with another video tape and a severed finger, the contents of the video tape showed that the princess's finger was cut off by the kidnappers, and even the public who originally supported the Prime Minister not to do such stupid things turned to the Prime Minister because they were worried about the princess's safety. The so-called anti-terrorist forces rescued the princess, but it was a maze of kidnappers. After all efforts failed, the British Prime Minister had to give in despite his wife's opposition. The public also found that the joke they were watching was actually more like a tragedy. Ironically, the princess was released half an hour before the Prime Minister finally broadcast live. At that time, everyone was watching the joke of the Prime Minister, but no one found it. The last severed finger was found to belong to the kidnapper, who hanged himself. The kidnapper, later known as an artist, was controversial. A year later, the TV station reviewed the incident. The princess is still in front of people and the prime minister is still in office, but when she returns home, she is lonely. His wife never wants to fall in love with a man who has sex with a pig.

Then he tried to save money to earn points and finally bought himself a ticket. Before the performance, the empty box of drinks that the heroine drank before attending the program was mixed with the program crew, and then he performed on stage. During the performance, he suddenly took out broken glass, threatened to die, vented his anger crazily and denounced the system. But the judges skillfully resolved his criticism, regarded his criticism as a "performance" and proposed to set up a commentary program for him, in which he could continue to complain about reality. Faced with huge interests, he compromised. Those virtual viewers once again fell into a carnival and were ecstatic about the birth of a new program. Finally, the hero has his own program, and he doesn't have to ride a bike anymore. He put the broken glass in the box. He walked to the edge of the room and saw the forest projected on a larger virtual screen.
