CBS has recently grown very close to Apple, although Disney is undoubtedly the Hollywood company with the best relationship with Apple.

However, the second best among them should be Warner, the parent company of CBS.

The two parties recently reached an agreement not only on the Netflix licensing issue, but also jointly launched various promotional activities for American TV series on DUCK Video.

With Twitter also joining in the promotion, it brought in a lot of traffic.

This time, the two parties intend to further their cooperation, and DUCK has finally secured the license from the NFL, allowing users to watch replays of all past Super Bowl games on DUCK.

The DUCK video needed to be promoted on CBS, and CBS was very cooperative. Since NBC held the broadcasting rights for this year's Super Bowl, they naturally wanted more people to know that they could watch the replay online and instead of watching the live broadcast on NBC.

Subsequently, CBS producers came up with a new idea: their hit sitcom "The Big Bang Theory" wanted to invite Chen Yiran to make a guest appearance and provide guidance on AI-related topics.

This isn't just because Chen Yiran is very controversial, but also because she's a perfect fit for the plot of "The Big Bang Theory." It's also because NBC's parent company has recently been working closely with YouTube, and they're preparing to launch a comprehensive satire of Google in the show to take a hit at them.

Although the actresses in The Big Bang Theory didn't quite fit Chen Yiran's aesthetic, the show was still quite interesting. After it was decided that the script had to be submitted to Chen Yiran for review, both parties reached an agreement.

In the last week before Christmas, Chen Yiran and Olsen went to Hollywood together.

Olsen has recently lost interest in acting. He seems to have overcome his inner demons, no longer refusing many of his two older sisters' arrangements, and has begun to participate more deeply in various brand activities.

Not only did she dress up for New York Fashion Week, but she also gained a lot of extra attention thanks to her two older sisters' introductions.

She then made a stunning appearance at a fashion gala in November, and later shot year-end specials for several top magazines such as Vogue and Harper's Bazaar with her two sisters.

Chen Yiran essentially got a buy-one-get-one-free deal on The Big Bang Theory, bringing Olson along as well. Both of them will be appearing in their own personas.

The two hadn't seen each other for over a month, and this time Chen Yiran moved directly into Olsen's home.

Looking at the scattering of flowers outside, Chen Yiran asked, "Did you cash out some of the money from the stock market? This house wasn't cheap, was it?"

As Olsen tossed the frisbee that Pidan had brought him away, he laughed and boasted, "It didn't cost me a penny! My sister bought it for me! It's my reward as a brand ambassador."

I didn't know before; my sister and her husband bought it during the 09 financial crisis and have been renovating it ever since. They originally planned to give it to me after I achieved some success in my acting career.

"I'm a bit tired of acting now, so they just gave it to me. Do you want to come with me to meet them? My two older sisters live nearby, what do you say?"

"Forget it, I wouldn't know what to say if I met them. I'll just ask them to give me some clothes later. Your clothes look pretty good."

Olsen glanced at Chen Yiran, then jumped over and lay down on Chen Yiran's lap, asking, "Why don't we just meet my parents? My parents were quite sad after the three of us moved out; now only my good-for-nothing brother is left at home. My house is also very close, only five minutes away."

Chen Yiran carried Olsen directly to the bedroom: "I feel like you need to be disciplined. I'll stop bothering you when you can't walk anymore."

After more than ten million indescribable scenes, Chen Yiran realized that the ancients were right: there are only oxen that die from exhaustion, not fields that are ruined by plowing.

Chen Yiran, who was resting in bed, watched as Olsen recovered for a while before getting up and hopping around to look at the script.

While watching, he asked, "Do you want me to teach you how to act? I've had proper training."

"No need, I don't need to be taught how to act. You should also act yourself. Why bother with the script? Just act whatever comes to mind."

---------------------------------------

The next day, Chen Yiran and Olsen arrived at Warner Bros.' Burbank studio ahead of time, mainly because Chen Yiran wanted to come early to see what fun things there were to do.

Warner Bros.' studio is very large, with a brass Warner Bros. plaque standing on two large stone pillars at the entrance.

Ordinary tourists usually have the opportunity to enter and visit by queuing up to buy tickets, although the number of places available each day is limited.

However, Chen Yiran's convoy drove straight in without any hindrance, because Warner's production assistant, a pretty Asian woman surnamed Li, was already waiting at the entrance. She led Chen Yiran and her group on a tour.

As soon as Chen Yiran entered, he felt a sense of déjà vu everywhere.

First, there was the exterior street, a cobblestone street in the style of the 1940s, lined with retro cafes, bookstores, flower shops, and barbershops. Chen Yiran was very certain he had seen this place in some movie, but he wasn't quite sure.

For the subsequent interior scenes, Chen Yiran first went to Studio 24, the largest of Warner Bros.' studios. It completely replicated a two-story hospital set, complete with an emergency room, operating room, ICU, corridors, and nurses' station.

The equipment inside is all real medical equipment; with a doctor, it can instantly transform into a real hospital. There are also many famous scenes, including those from The Matrix, Pearl Harbor, and a corridor used in a reshoot of Harry Potter.

Of course, the most popular spot, attracting the most tourists, is a small street scene at the very back of the set, which is the Central Cafe from Friends.

Chen Yiran's arrival still attracted a lot of attention, and some people even rushed over to ask for his autograph.

Fortunately, he had enough bodyguards, and he wasn't a traditional celebrity. Besides, Americans aren't as fanatical about celebrities as Asians.

Or rather, truly insane people would have already started taking off their clothes and sticking them on, while anyone who hasn't done that is considered rational.

After leaving the crowd, Chen Yiran and Olsen headed towards Studio 9, where The Big Bang Theory was being filmed.

However, when passing by Studio 8, Chen Yiran glanced inside and stopped to watch carefully. It was the set of "2 Broke Girls," and the female lead was quite voluptuous.

Olsen grinned mischievously from the side: "What's wrong? What's wrong? A C cup isn't enough for you anymore, huh? You just like big cups, right? Dada's been busy filming lately, hasn't had a chance to come see me, has she?"

Chen Yiran coughed lightly: "No, I was just curious what kind of movie this is. It looks like a sitcom. That woman is too muscular! She doesn't fit my aesthetic."

"It's still Dada getting back together, right?"

"You have to admit that Dada's slim waist is indeed the result of her hard work."

When we arrived at Studio 9, the main creative team was already waiting outside.

After greeting the creative team, a young woman surnamed Li came over to explain the day's schedule to Chen Yiran.

The filming process for sitcoms is actually not long. Usually, the script is discussed in the morning and the actors read it together in the script room in the afternoon.

Then we'll have a rehearsal with the audience, which will also be recorded, but it won't be a very formal one.

In the evening, a formal recording will be made for the live audience.

Then, depending on the situation, some outdoor shots or special effects shots will be reshot the next day.

In short, one episode can be finished in two days.

Chen Yiran followed the crew throughout the entire production and found it quite interesting. Perhaps because it was a sitcom, the plot wasn't too rigid. Chen Yiran directly offered some suggestions regarding the AI ​​aspects, and the crew made all the necessary changes.

Chen Yiran was quite satisfied with the final result.
