I didn't want to be an actor

Chapter 25: Day Day Up

"Day Day Up" has been around for 10 years!

Many years ago, Wang Han told the leaders of Hunan Satellite TV, "Happy Camp and Day Day Up are the feet of Hunan Satellite TV."

But now, "Day Day Up" is no longer worthy of a foot!
The ratings in 52 cities were only 0.3%, even lower than the usual : p.m. show "After School".

There is not a single trending search, and the online playback volume is not good either...

Even the title sponsorship is signed on a season-by-season basis—no one dares to sign for a year.

The last two seasons found sponsors who were paid for by Chen Ou, a good partner of the show. With this kind of ratings, and being able to have a sponsor, the advertising department must be really awesome!
In fact, the positioning of "Day Day Up" is quite awkward. It is marketed as a cultural talk show...

Before, we did try to develop in the direction of "public morality, etiquette and cultural talk show".

Now? I can't tell what kind of show it is. It has no characteristics!

It’s probably the personal aesthetic of Shen Xin Studio!
Oh, "Day Day Up" has changed several producers, and the current producer is Shen Xin...

It may also be because it is on Hunan TV, and entertainment is essential.

But you can't beat "Big Camp" in terms of entertainment...

This results in poor guest resources and a lack of advantage in broadcast time. In order to cater to the audience and make it more entertaining, the program already has a fixed process...

And the invited guests actually didn’t have many screen times!
In fact, with the traditional television media industry market becoming increasingly sluggish, it is already good enough for old-fashioned studio programs like "Day Day Up" to continue to exist!
Hunan Satellite TV’s dilemma: user loss and aging structure!
There was no need for the show "Day Day Up" to exist...so it was later discontinued.

Of course, at this stage, "Day Day Up" has become a rare variety show resource for Shen Liang!

Shen Liang participated in the program recording as a guest host - the guests in this episode were mainly contestants of "The Rap of China"...

A group of contestants took the stage to present...

After finishing, Wang Han asked Shen Liang: "What do you think of hip-hop as a form of music?"

"Jump and see..."

"Jump and see?"

Qian Feng jumped up deliberately: "Is it like this?"

“No,” Shen Liang smiled. “I watch The Rap of China mainly to see how the production team edits conflicts and storylines… As for the songs in the show, I don’t really like them… So, I just skip around and watch!”

"…You don't like it?"

"I don't like hip-hop, I don't like jazz... These are my personal preferences... I saw someone say online before, 'hip-hop is not popular in China, it's a loss for music', I found it very strange, hip-hop is only mainstream in the United States, it's not mainstream in Europe and Asia, what's the loss?" By the way, Cue Da Zhangwei: "I guess Da Lao Shi doesn't like it either?"

Da Zhangwei quickly said: "No, no... I like it very much... I like hip-hop the most!"

Shen Liang glanced at him: "I prefer rock..."

Hip-hop representative Gui Bian asked Shen Liang: "Do you listen to hip-hop?"

"Listen, I listen to West Coast rap, Southern rap... Eminem, Snoop Dogg, Nate Dogg, Dr. Dre... I've listened to most hip-hop singers!"

"Don't you like it?"

"I want to know why they are popular...I have to listen to them even if I don't like them..."

Da Zhangwei was very interested: "What did you gain?"

“I got a lot of beats… and I also learned about a platform called Beat Star… that platform has a lot of beats for sale… after buying them, I just added some lyrics and it became a very good song!”

Noticing that the audience didn’t quite understand, Shen Liang explained: “Beat means accompaniment…”

Da Zhangwei looked at Shen Liang and said, "You openly say you don't like them, aren't you worried about their fans?"

"What's the big deal?" Shen Liang was puzzled: "They can also dislike me... Don't they even have the right to say they don't like me?"

……

During the recording break, Da Zhangwei took the initiative to find Shen Liang...

He likes Shen Liang's straightforwardness, but he is also worried that he will be dissed by the hip-hop circle. As a person who has experienced it, Da Zhangwei advised: "Sometimes, try not to say some things if you can..."

Shen Liang smiled and said, "I have been very restrained. There is something I have been holding back and not saying..."

"What?"

Shen Liang whispered: "I actually feel that rap is similar to rap..."

"Wow! Fortunately you didn't say that!" "...If I had said that, it would probably have become a hot topic."

"More than just a trending search! I think you'll be beaten to death..."

Shen Liang chuckled: "That's not the case..."

"By the way, do you have anything to do the day after tomorrow?"

"We should be shooting a music video, what's wrong?"

"The director team of 'Masked Singer Guess Guess' is very interested in you. He mentioned you the other day... I guess he's planning to contact you to participate in the show!"

Shen Liang thought about it for a while, then shook his head: "...I still have to work on my EP, so I probably don't have time for the time being..."

"I mean, I want to contact you as a guest... to join the guessing team?"

Shen Liang chuckled: "The acting group that pretended not to know even though they knew who it was?"

Da Zhangwei also laughed: "...Don't be so blunt..."

Most of the singers in China have very unique voices, it is hard for you to guess...

Jiangsu TV is really difficult - all major TV stations have their own representative music variety shows, Zhejiang TV has "The Voice of China", Hunan TV has "Singer", Dragon TV has "The Voice of China", Beijing TV has "Crossover Singer"...

As one of the five major TV stations, Jiangsu TV cannot fall behind...

I finally got the copyright of "King of Masked Singer", so of course I have to continue playing with it!

Da Zhangwei then asked: "Then are you coming?"

"It's hard to say, maybe I don't have time..."

"Come and have some fun. It's just one day. It won't take too long!"

"I'll talk to you later if the production team contacts me."

……

In the second half of the show, Yang Di and Zhao Lusi also appeared...

It's a pity that there was no chance for anyone to show off, and Shen Liang didn't have a chance to speak either...

The process of the variety show "Day Day Up" is that the host talks more, and the guests have too few opportunities to perform...

But for an indoor variety show, or a talk show, since you have invited guests, the guests need the host's guidance to show a better self, rather than watching the host show himself...

Otherwise, why do you invite guests?

There were so many people, squeezing each other, and the key point was that what Wang Han said was meaningless...

Oh, it’s only when we’re eating - it’s a fixed template of “Day Day Up”, and some delicious food is served at the very end.

Shen Liang asked Zhao Lusi to feed him a piece of food in a low voice. Wang Han joked in a very 'professional' way: "You two should be careful and don't really talk about it..."

Yang Di immediately interrupted: "Why can't we talk?"

"Ruth is only 19 years old..."

"Shen Liang is only 22, three years older than her... I think it's a good match. Brother Han, let's not worry about handsome guys and beautiful girls!" After saying that, Yang Di shouted, "Liangsi CP, I'll protect them!"

As soon as these words came out...

The scene... immediately fell silent.

So embarrassing!

Wang Han, Qian Feng, and Da Zhangwei were not prepared...

What Liangsi CP, what are you talking about?
It's simply unbearable to watch...

Zhao Lusi's face flushed with embarrassment, and Shen Liang also felt his face getting hot... He suppressed his shame, walked forward, pulled Yang Di down, and whispered, "Brother Di, thank you for your hard work!"

Yang Di also whispered back: "If Li Wei hadn't found me, I wouldn't have done this!"

"Let Brother Li Wei treat us to a special meal later!"
