Plot

Rock (Derek Tsang), the director of a poor rating TV program, bumps into a female ghost, Tincy (Tong Ling), and helps deliver her baby from her dead body. In return, the ghost helps him create a new reality show "Life on the Line", where contestants attempt to overcome deadly traps designed purposely to kill, in hopes to win a cash prize. The show becomes a spectacular hit, but little does he know there's more to Tincy than meets the eye ...[1]

Cast
gollark: I got 4 diamonds one time, then the TBM ran out of fuel and I left.
gollark: Yes.
gollark: Thoughts? Is this *too* cheaty?
gollark: Given that our slag production makes *about* one per ten seconds (probably less), and 12.8 units of 5 coal would be needed for 1 diamond, we could get one diamond every two minutes or so.
gollark: I figured out a terrible, terrible (in the sense of being slightly cheaty) way to get diamonds:1. hook up slag production to thermal centrifuge (there's a 1 slag -> tiny gold dust + 5 coal dust recipe)2. feed coal to compactor (makes compressed coal balls; without this it would need flint, but that's easy too)3. compress the coal ball into a ... compressed coal ball4. compress the compressed coal balls into a coal chunk (usually this would require obsidian, iron or bricks, but the compactor skips that too - obsidian is automateable easily but with large power input, though)5. compress coal chunk into diamond
