The Person Priced at 80,000 tells the story of a bonus scam. Qian Youdao's company is on the verge of bankruptcy, yet he suddenly announces an 80,000 cash bonus for every employee. Sensing something suspicious, Lin Wan refuses the money, resigns, and retreats to her hometown. Meanwhile, more than thirty colleagues, including He Miao, accept the money, sign contracts, and then mysteriously disappear. The police discover that the 80,000 is not a bonus but a price tag placed on each employee. Taking advantage of their financial desperation and excitement, the company tricks them into signing overseas assignment contracts, confiscates their phones, and confines them in a warehouse awaiting transportation. The criminals also track their locations, monitor them, and impersonate missing employees to lure Lin Wan into their trap. Lin Wan promptly reports the crime and cooperates with the police in turning the criminals' scheme against them. Following the tracking signals, the police launch a raid and rescue the victims. Qian Youdao and his accomplices are arrested, and the contracts are declared invalid. The story serves as a warning: money does not simply fall from the sky, and the more tempting an offer seems, the more carefully one should watch out for hidden traps.
