Rebirth of Chinese Entertainment, the Diary of a 95 Flower

Wang Han keenly sensed that the content of Yang Chaoyue's proposal was very sensitive.

Especially the last sentence.

This shows that because power is not open to ordinary people, they work hard to make money.

Is this something you can say on a TV show?

"Brother Han, how is it? Is it not going to pass? If it is, I'll have Chaoyue prepare another one."

"Actually, it's not that sensitive."

Wang Han waved his hand: "I'll go discuss it with the director."

Upon arriving at the control room, Wang Han first showed Yang Chaoyue's proposal to Li Wei, who rejected it without hesitation. Wang Han interrupted, saying, "Director, I think this is an opportunity."

"what chance?"

“Yang Chaoyue’s three proposals are definitely not acceptable, without a doubt. But we can hold off for now and tell her that her proposals have been rejected when the official recording begins,” Wang Han said solemnly.

Hear the words.

Director Li Wei paused, then asked, "What do you mean?"

"Isn't this a highlight? Jiang Yang is the top scorer in the college entrance examination, and Yang Chaoyue is the student he tutored. Yang Chaoyue took the adult college entrance examination, but when he appeared on the variety show, he stammered and couldn't even make a proposal. When the program team announces Yang Chaoyue's college entrance examination score, the top scorer in the college entrance examination taught a student who couldn't even get into a junior college. This topic will definitely be easy to ferment."

After Wang Han said that, Li Wei fell into deep thought.

No wonder he's the top host at Hunan TV.

I immediately came up with a highlight for the show.

His gaze was fixed on Yang Chaoyue, who had returned to his seat and was sitting behind Jiang Yang, chatting with Zhao Lushi every now and then, and then laughing heartily.

"Brother Han, your idea is worth a try."

I understand what Wang Han means.

To put it bluntly, it's about exploiting the contrast between Yang Chaoyue and Jiang Yang's master-disciple personas.

Jiang Yang is the top scorer in the college entrance examination, and he has an aura of academic excellence.

Yang Chaoyue, one of his students, couldn't even get into a junior college.

The premise of top students teaching underachievers is inherently controversial.

In the variety show market, contrast is the element that most easily sparks discussion among viewers.

In particular, plots that break the conventional wisdom that great teachers produce great students can quickly pique the audience's curiosity and desire to make sarcastic comments.

“Okay, shall I go and discuss it with Jiang Yang and Yang Chaoyue?” Wang Han nodded: “They are both actors, so they should be able to pull it off.”

"Discuss what?! Brother Han, please stop!"

Li Wei grabbed Wang Han and said, "Just keep delaying the rejection of the proposal until the official recording, then tell Yang Chaoyue that the proposal has been scrapped. It's a variety show, not acting. Variety shows are supposed to be real."

"That's a bit unfair, mainly because..."

"Ha, Jiang Yang brings nine guests to the show, and that's considered 'genuine'? Nine? My God, that's outrageous. I'm using the guests he brought to create some entertainment value, which is perfectly acceptable, isn't it?"

To put it bluntly, the reason why Yang Chaoyue wasn't informed beforehand was essentially to force her to improvise.

If Yang Chaoyue's dignity is used well, it can become a point of interest that can be exploited in the program.

Being informed on the spot that a proposal is invalid will likely cause one to become nervous and incoherent.

In many cases, isn't this kind of out-of-control scene a famous moment in variety shows?

Audiences prefer to see the artists' genuine reactions rather than carefully prepared lines.

Wang Han pondered for a few seconds, then slowly nodded and asked, "What about Ruth? Does she need any arrangements?"

"Ruth?"

Li Wei looked over and sized up Zhao Lushi a few times.

I remember Zhao Lushi. I know her father, so I know that Lushi is from a wealthy family.

The audience for variety shows is mainly ordinary people. Yang Chaoyue's factory worker identity naturally allows the audience to relate to her. In comparison, Zhao Lushi has too few highlights: "We don't need to worry about Lushi. We don't need to deliberately arrange program effects for her. She's okay as an internet celebrity, but her looks are too ordinary compared to stars."

We didn't talk much about Zhao Lushi.

Li Wei confirmed the arrangements for Yang Chaoyue with Wang Han again in detail.

As the time drew to a close, Wang Han returned to his position as director to prepare for the rehearsal. He met Jiang Yang's questioning gaze: "Brother Han, how did it go? Will Chao Yue's proposal be approved?"

Wang Han remained silent.

He just made an OK gesture.

The rehearsal process began with the director, Li Wei, announcing, "All departments, get ready. Rehearsal begins."

First, everyone needs to move into position.

As the director, Wang Han took the lead and walked to the center of the main stage, holding the microphone and familiarizing himself with the opening lines.

His voice was steady and powerful, and he would pause from time to time to confirm the camera angle with the director.

Ning Jing and Guo Xuefu then walked to the sofas in the secondary areas on both sides of the stage, adjusted their posture, and adapted to the camera's field of vision.

Zhou Jie, Qian Feng, Tian Yuan, Liu Wei, Xue Zhiqian, and Jiang Yang, the six senior agents, walked to the other side of the secondary area and sat down. They rehearsed their self-introductions in the order of the schedule, each saying a brief opening line and testing the microphone volume and sound reception.

Qian Feng's voice was rather loud, and the director reminded him to lower his voice a little, repeating this several times.

Zhou Jie's lines are concise and powerful.

Just as everyone was getting familiar with the process, Jiang Yang received a message from Zhao Lushi: ["Boss, Wang Han and that director named Li Wei are targeting Chao Yue. Damn it, they want to use Chao Yue to embarrass himself to boost the ratings."]
Jiang Yang glanced back at Zhao Lushi and whispered, "Really?"

"If I lied to you, may my whole family die!" Zhao Lushi said angrily. "I heard it clearly."

Jiang Yang was stunned. How come he had both the ability to see a thousand miles and the ability to hear the wind?

Followed by.

Zhao Lushi recounted what she had just overheard to Jiang Yang.

They deliberately delayed until the official recording session, then rejected Yang Chaoyue's original proposal, allowing Yang Chaoyue to improvise and come up with a new one.

The humor stems from the contrast between the top-scoring student and his mentor.

After the show officially airs, the production team will proactively release the hashtag "Top scorer in the college entrance exam teaches a student who failed to get into a vocational college" based on Yang Chaoyue's poor performance, thus guiding netizens to discuss the topic.

After the broadcast, many netizens will definitely criticize Yang Chaoyue for being incompetent and question Jiang Yang's coaching ability.

A top student can empathize but a struggling student can't teach someone who's academically weak.

Whether the discussion is positive or negative, it can bring high popularity to the show.

After the topic gained traction, the program team then released Yang Chaoyue's college entrance examination score, using specific data to amplify the contrast.

This further propelled the topic to the top of trending searches, attracting more onlookers and ultimately translating into higher program ratings and more online views.

Jiang Yang initially thought Zhao Lushi was teasing him.

After listening to everything, I realized that it was indeed Zhao Lushi who heard it!
Because the propaganda was so logically sound, Zhao Lushi, with her stubborn and unintelligent mind, simply couldn't understand it: "Ruth, did you really hear that clearly?"

"Yeah, can't you do it?"

"I'm not good enough."

Jiang Yang then asked, "Can you hear what the other people here are saying?"

Zhao Lushi shook her head: "How could that be? Do you think I'm Erwa with super hearing?"

"Then why did you hear this so clearly? The control room is an entire audience seat away from your seat."

"Because of that guy named Li Wei, he insulted me."

She couldn't even bear the injustices she suffered herself, let alone see those she cared about being schemed against. (End of Chapter)
