The Wind of China Entertainment 2005

Chapter 718 Silly Baitian

All seven permanent guests are present.

The program director Balabala said a few words about the setting. This episode is set in the Leifeng Pagoda in Hangzhou and the theme is the Legend of the White Snake. The gist is that a treasure has been stolen and several people are needed to find it.

At the same time, he said that he would send two agents for support.

Sa Bei was making jokes and everyone was curious about who the agent was. At this time, two flying guests came on stage, Guo Jingfei and Gao Yuanyuan.

Jingfei Guo signed with Yuanfang Studio after filming "Love Is Not Blind" a few years ago.

Later, the studio was upgraded to a company and the internal business was readjusted. Jiang Qiuyun established Sijiu Entertainment and became independent to specialize in artist work, so he transferred over.

As for Gao Yuanyuan, she has nothing to do with Yuanfang Media and Sijiu Entertainment.

However, the drama "Let's Get Married" starring the two has officially started airing.

The traditional channels chosen were CCTV-1 and Hunan Satellite TV's prime time. This was the first time that CCTV and Hunan Satellite TV "jointly cooperated and broadcast simultaneously", opening up a new broadcast mode for domestic dramas.

This broadcasting method is unprecedented, allowing China's most authoritative TV platform and the most entertaining TV platform to work together.

It's simply a miracle, the kind that I dare not even think about.

As we all know, these two satellite TV stations have never been on good terms. Hunan Satellite TV always wants to defeat the strong with its inferiors.
As for the online channels, it is exclusively provided by PPS.

However, according to the contract, the broadcast time will be one day later than the two satellite TV stations.

Lu Yuan is an old acquaintance of Hualu Baina Company, which invested in this drama. Both "Before the Dawn" and "The Unforgettable Number" were produced by this company, and he was originally approached for the role of the male lead.

With him acting as the middleman and the platform's profit-sharing model, after considering many factors, Hualu Baina chose to put this drama on PPS.

After Gao Yuanyuan and Guo Jingfei appeared, PPS users were extremely excited and started to scroll through the comments section with "Let's Get Married".

"Wow, Yuanyuan is so beautiful, Zhao Youting's hatred for stealing his wife is unforgivable!!"

"Such a beautiful leftover woman, it's incredible!"

"Taozi, Taozi, I stole an electric car to support you."

"Guo Jingfei is so cute!!"

"As expected of the person who followed Lu Yuan the earliest, his acting skills are amazing!"

Lu Yuan looked at the barrage and smiled. The urban romance drama "Let's Get Married" is really popular.

Liu Jiang is a gold medal director who has created well-received works such as "Before Dawn" and "The Good Times of Wife", and has unique insights into the creation of urban dramas.

Since its launch, it has basically maintained the top spot in the daily ratings and has also won a good reputation.

The plot rhythm, actor performances, dialogue style and other aspects have received rave reviews, and many viewers praised its production level as comparable to that of an excellent romance movie.

If it weren't for the outrageous ratings of "My Love from the Star" starring him, and the existence of another drama "The Cliff" which has not yet been aired, this drama would very likely become the best drama of the year.

Thanks to this drama, Gao Yuanyuan reached the peak of her career.

And Guo Jingfei also really began to take off.

After "Before the Dawn" was broadcast that year, Liu Jiang found Lu Yuan to play the leading male role in the drama.

Lu Yuan refused, but recommended Guo Jingfei, the first artist signed by the studio.

Guo Jingfei is not as popular as Gao Yuanyuan, but he has excellent professional skills, which is also recognized by Liu Jiang.

Unlike Gao Yuanyuan who relies on her looks to conquer the world, a truly good actor conquers the audience with her acting skills.

As soon as the show started, a large number of female audiences were attracted to Guo Jingfei, who was cute yet likable, and whose personality was likable. So they formed groups online and shouted the slogan "If I'm going to marry someone, I'm going to marry Guo Ran!"

Guo Jingfei’s popularity has skyrocketed, and he has become a new star in Yuanfang Media, and is recognized as a powerful actor in the industry!

After Gao Yuanyuan and Guo Jingfei came on stage, they introduced themselves first.

Sabe naturally led the topic to "Let's Get Married", which was considered as a promotion for the drama.

After the blah blah prelude, the director said that he would divide the nine people into three teams, each with three people.

As the captain, Sabe stood up at the right time, summarized a few words, repeated the task, and then led everyone to shout the slogan "Run, brothers!"

"Huh!" Zhu Yawen frowned.

Luo Jin was puzzled: "Why, are you biting your tongue?"

"Have you noticed that there are quite a few critics on the comments, most of whom are saying that the format is very similar to South Korea's "Running Man" and that the selection of several guests is not as good as that of South Korea."

"Isn't this nonsense? The model is definitely similar. They just bought the copyright of the Korean variety show and made it clear during the promotion. As for the guests, different people have different opinions. They are all personalities. Comparing with the Korean guests is preconceived and they can't let go. Isn't this just deliberately picking faults? They must be sent by the rival platform to cause trouble."

As the two analyzed, Lu Yuan raised his eyebrows.

He also noticed similar comments. In fact, the program team had anticipated this scene when selecting the guests.

South Korea's "Running Man" has its own audience in China, but the group is small.

However, audiences who have watched the Korean version tend to look at it with a critical eye. It is human nature that they tend to point out problems and gain recognition from others, thereby gaining psychological pleasure.

It is impossible to introduce the Korean "Running Man" in an unchanged way, it has to be localized.

The director team will select seven people with different personalities according to the preferences of the Chinese people, write the script in advance, and create different personalities based on their respective personalities to highlight the highlights of the guests.

This type of outdoor variety show has three core selling points: novel model + likable characters + good script.

"Running Man" is the first outdoor variety show in China and a new model.

As long as the script is well-written, and two or three of the seven regular guests can lead the pace, have a sense of variety, are relaxed, and can make the audience laugh, the show will basically be a success.

In fact, Lu Yuan did not have high expectations for this variety show. For PPS, "Running Man" was just an attempt.

The filming was led by PPS and Dragon TV, and a Korean team was invited to provide guidance.

The purpose is to inject variety show genes into PPS, learn as much as possible from the Korean team, and develop their own original variety shows.

According to feedback from the PPS Variety Show Department, the progress is good. After the filming of "Run", the team has grown significantly.

The travel variety show that Liu Shishi has been dreaming of has been prepared in full swing, with locations being selected across the country, and filming to start next year. A public welfare variety show targeting abduction is also in preparation and is nearing completion.

"Run, brother!"

During the show, nine guests, one from red, yellow and blue, compete against each other in groups of three.

The first project is "Acupressure Board".

The program team set up a massage track in the square, which is more than 100 meters long, with flat ground, steps, and different levels, such as skipping rope, hoop drilling, and horse vaulting.
Let each team of guests take turns to pass the level, and finally compete to see which team takes the shortest time.

At this time, you can initially see the characteristics of several guests.

The members of the red team are Wang Baoqiang, Xue Zhiqian and Guo Jingfei.

Wang Baoqiang’s main character is honest. Although he has the highest status among the group, he doesn’t show it at all. He is totally without airs. He rushes forward, grimacing in pain, but he is not ambiguous at all.

Xue Zhiqian has been hidden for many years. He knows that this is a rare opportunity and whether he can become popular depends on this one time. He keeps looking for shots for himself, so that his mouth is faster than his brain, and he is slow to realize it, making a lot of jokes. Under Sa Bei's instigation, he kept yelling at the side, asking Baoqiang to stop pretending, saying that it was not that painful, it was too exaggerated, and said that it was no big deal for him to carry someone on his back.

When it was his turn to perform, the director really met his request and picked a heavyweight tank from the crowd.

Xue Zhiqian had thin arms and legs, and he didn't take it seriously at first, until he saw the other person's body shape, his face turned green with fear. When he carried the other person onto the acupressure mat, his previous disdainful expression disappeared, and he kept grimacing, almost crying in pain.

The contrast between the before and after is so great that it makes the barrage of comments go crazy.

The next few people, Sa Beining, Gao Yuanyuan, and Lin Gengxin from the yellow team, and Jing Tian, ​​Sha Yi, and Su Xing from the blue team also have their own characteristics.

Sabening was very attentive and determined not to let anyone feel embarrassed. He kept passing on the message to avoid a dull moment.

Jing Tian is a beautiful lady with a quiet and gentle temperament. She is not at all reserved when she comes on stage. She is down-to-earth, not shy or pretentious, and is able to let go.

Compared with Jing Tian, ​​Gao Yuanyuan seems to be quite concerned about her image.

Sha Yi, Su Xing, Lin Gengxin and others delivered jokes quite naturally, pretending to be stupid and ignorant, which created a lot of laughter.

Generally speaking, in this session, everyone worked very hard, no one was cheating, and everyone screamed in pain, with tears in their eyes.

Zhu Yawen saw Guo Jingfei grinning and laughed out loud with gleeful joy.

Luo Jin wondered, "Does this thing really hurt that much?"

"It's obvious that you didn't learn elementary school physics well. When the pressure is constant, the smaller the area under force, the greater the effect." Zhu Yawen looked at him with contempt.

"You studied physics in elementary school." Luo Jin thought he was talking nonsense.

Lu Yuan smiled and said, "When this variety show was filmed in Hangzhou, Shi Shi and I went to visit the set. The girl didn't believe how painful it was at first. This thing is made of plastic rubber. I touched it and it was hard and uneven. It looked like nothing special, so I tricked her into going on it and made a bet. The bet was a week's worth of housework. She believed it and stepped on it barefoot. Later..."

"What happened next?"

"What else can I do? Take her to the mall to buy a bag."

Luo Jin asked knowingly: "Who asked you about buying a bag? I was talking about housework, who did it in the end?"

Lu Yuan rolled his eyes. Isn't this nonsense?

He sighed, "Sometimes I feel speechless to myself. When I'm bored, I like to tease her. She's obviously very well behaved and obedient, but I have to make her angry. In the end, I have to coax her myself. Every time I tell myself in my heart that it won't happen again, but she never learns her lesson."

"What a coincidence, I often do this." Luo Jin ignored the contemptuous looks of the two and calmly took another oyster.

"Cough." Zhu Yawen coughed dryly and said, "Me too."

Lu Yuan grinned. This is probably what it means for a man to stay young until he dies.

With this thought in mind, when Liu Shishi sent him several full-body selfies and asked him which outfit looked better, he replied coldly: I’m not curvy in front or behind, how ridiculous!

The show continues.

The guests moved to the front of the swimming pool and the game entered the second stage.

The three groups of red, yellow and blue players each selected a representative to sit down at the dining table, and the remaining two players would sit on the flying chairs in front of the swimming pool.

The representative must put the corresponding ingredients on the dough according to the order in which the waiter serves the dishes, wrap it up and eat it in one bite.

If the order is wrong, the two teammates behind will be penalized and fly into the swimming pool.

In this segment, the guests can set traps for each other.

Sa Beining from the yellow team, Su Xing and Jing Tian from the blue team, these three are the most outstanding.

Sa Bei relied on his IQ to set the pace and carry the whole show. He began to reveal his dark side and quietly played tricks to interfere with or harm representatives from other groups, especially paying special attention to Jing Tian.

Whenever Jing Tian picked up some food, he would seriously mess things up.

Although it was his first time participating in an outdoor variety show, he did not look awkward at all. The academic master, Peking University admission, and CCTV host's ability to control the situation was fully demonstrated at this moment.

Su Xing was quick-witted and, as a teammate, he immediately fought back and reminded Jing Tian.

But Jing Tian is a naive person. She blinked her big eyes and finally harmed her teammates with an innocent look on her face.

This is also Jing Tian's first time as a guest on a variety show.

This girl looks like a delicate and beautiful lady, but she is actually silly, slow to react, and very easy to be deceived.

Maybe it was Xiao Sa's identity as a legal anchor for CCTV that gave her some illusions, and she trusted him so much that she took the bait with just a few words.

This caused her teammates Su Xing and Sha Yi to fall into the water repeatedly.

But Jing Tian's natural and good looks in the previous segment have already won the audience's favor.

So when she saw Sha Yi and Su Xing fall into the water, with an expression of great apology, regret and self-blame, what else could not be forgiven?
PPS, cross out the old ones, the hearts of the young perverts will melt.

As for Sha Yi and Su Xing falling into the water many times, who are they?

Therefore, whenever Sabei made mean remarks to interfere or deceive her, the army of barrages would condemn this Peking University student in unison.

There was even a comment that angrily shouted: "Xiao Sa, I regret speaking up for you on Weibo. How could you have the heart to do that to Da Tiantian? You really deserve to be the victim."

Of course, there are also comments saying: "Please keep up the good work, I just like to see real and unpretentious beauties."

While Lu Yuan was watching the show, he used part of his energy to coax Liu Shishi.

A moment later, her cell phone rang, and she sent a photo of her parents watching "Running Man" in the living room.

Liu's father and mother laughed so hard that Liu's glasses became crooked due to laughing.

Lu Yuan raised his head and saw that Luo Jin and Zhu Yawen had similar expressions, and he began to have some expectations for the results of "Running Man".

The essence of the vast majority of film and television programs is to help the audience release stress.

The fun of this water-falling segment in "Running Man" lies not only in watching the stars set traps for each other, but more in watching them get unlucky.

Normally these big stars are always so glamorous and high up, earning tens of millions for a movie and living a life of luxury.

Such a sudden change broke people's inherent impression of them.

Watching them fall into the water, watching them make a fool of themselves, watching them scream in fear, I would think, "So they also have moments like this," and thus develop a sense of "balance" or "schadenfreude."

The third part is to tear off each other's name tags, which requires both physical and mental effort.

Until the end of the show, Lu Yuan still felt a little reluctant to leave and was quite satisfied with the performances of the guests.

"Hey, I think this variety show is going to be popular, and there won't be any problem with the second season."

Luo Jin nudged him with his arm and immediately added, "Well, let's shoot the second season and let Tangtang go up and play as a guest."

"Sir, please make some arrangements for the one in our family as well." Zhu Yawen followed closely behind.

"Okay, let them go together." Lu Yuan agreed casually.

He is now looking forward to the data that the company will hand in tomorrow. There are still a few vacancies in the advertising slots when "Running Man" is broadcast on PPS.
