Chapter Fifty-six: Crouching Dragon and Phoenix Young Gather
After finishing the song in the evening, Han Zhou was going back to his apartment.
It's inconvenient to take a shower here in the company, so you can't go to an event without taking a shower, right?
Zhang Jiuquan and Chen Xiaoyong had an awkward date at the bathhouse, but Han Zhou couldn't go.
Because if Han Zhou went to the bathhouse, he might be in the news.
Although there are not that many fans, at least there are fans who are paying attention.
This is Hengdian again, and no one can figure out which window the paparazzi is squatting behind.
The most disgusting thing was that when Han Zhou came out of the shower, Chen Xiaoyong sent him a photo, showing off how handsome the technician who pressed his feet was.
Han Zhou silently made a report call.
Of course, Chen Xiaoyong went to take a regular bath, and the police had nothing to do with it.
But someone can take care of it.
The target of Han Zhou's report was Chen Dayong.
Chen Dayong, who was filming a night scene, received a call and Xiaoyong's embarrassment disappeared.
Zhang Jiuquan asked what happened.
Chen Xiaoyong: "Accompanying you is like accompanying a tiger."
Then he sent a message to Han Zhou: "Brother, I was wrong, please come with me next time!"
Han Zhou: "No need, just discount it."
After the red envelopes were sent out, Chen Xiaoyong always felt that something was not right.
After filming a movie, I haven't received my salary yet, so how can I take out two hundred first?
…
In the morning, Han Zhou took the earliest train to Shanghai.
The theater where the roadshow will be held this time is the Bauhinia Cinema on Jinling Road in the Magic City area.
After Tianle's people received Han Zhou, the first thing they went to was not the theater, but the resting place prepared by the preparation team.
As soon as Han Zhou got out of the car, a camera with the logo of Magic City TV came over.
The executive director also followed the camera: "Hello Han Zhou, I have your letter."
The task card stuck out from under the camera.
Han Zhou took the mission card, opened it and read it.
"Hello Han Zhou, I am Tang Zhou. Due to injury, I have to withdraw from the recording of "Real Challenge", so I would like to invite you to participate in the recording of this program. You..."
Han Zhou did not read out what was said next, but directly covered the envelope: "I understand."
Previously, "Real Challenge" had a total of five guests, and three episodes have been recorded.
As a result, Tang Zhou was injured, causing the program team to re-select a guest to replace him.
Fortunately, because it is New Year's Day, this program has been postponed, otherwise the entire program team would have exploded.
And because of the postponement of New Year's Day, the impact on "Real Challenge" is actually very large.
In the third episode, the program's highest ratings reached 1.6, which is already a very high rating.
However, there was no update for a week, and there was one less guest when it came back, so the ratings dropped by at least nearly half.
In other words, if there are no accidents, the ratings of this program will be 0.8 at most.
Now by inviting Han Zhou and An Lan and promoting it, we may be able to raise the ratings to above 1.
What is being filmed now is obviously what will be broadcast in the next episode.
But the program team has another way to boost ratings.
"This is your mission card."
Han Zhou took the mission card doubtfully and was a little dazed.
Han Zhou never expected that the program team of "Real Challenge" would be so courageous after suffering such heavy losses.
You must know that they are already among the top five variety shows on the market.
As long as we can find a way to stabilize the ratings, there will be no problem in filming for three or four seasons.
But now, the program team is actually playing tricks.
"Live broadcast?" Han Zhou was a little stupid after reading the task card: "Isn't it?"
Executive director behind the camera: "We tentatively plan to live broadcast one episode, but the live broadcast format is different from that of online anchors."
"We will live broadcast the process of completing the task, and finally edit the essence to become the content broadcast on the TV station."
"It's not live broadcast all day long, it's just live broadcast every time you do a task."
"In this way, the material library can be expanded."
In fact, to put it bluntly, it is just to ride on the current wave of popularity of live broadcasts.
In fact, in this so-called live broadcast, users only enjoy the content.
It's just that it's now shown directly during the live broadcast.
Therefore, when viewers watch the live broadcast, it is difficult for them to systematically understand what this variety show is about. In the end, they have to watch the edited version.
Because you can't open six web pages and watch all the guests' live broadcasts at the same time.
The person who can do this and still see clearly must be a video supervisor in the Skynet surveillance hall of the traffic police department, and he must have at least a senior professional title.
Han Zhou keenly discovered that this attempt was a very good thing for him.
Han Zhou put away the mission card and walked inside.
The camera also followed Han Zhou.
"That is to say, the live broadcast will start tomorrow."
"But only the parts that will be used for editing will be broadcast live, and the remaining parts will not be broadcast live."
That's not bad.
"I see."
The executive director was outside the screen: "In order to help you adapt to our program as soon as possible, we have arranged for you to meet with another guest today. As for the content of your chat, we will not film it."
Han Zhou was a little curious about which of the remaining four main guests they had arranged to come over.
The four guests who are still on "Real Challenge".
Wang Mingyuan, 42 years old, actor.
Luo Daming, 37 years old, regarded the emperor.
Lu Jin, 20 years old, is an idol who is proficient in dancing.
Rang Bing, 37 years old, first-line singer.
And the 27-year-old popular actor Tang Zhou, who doesn’t know if he will return.
This configuration seems to be a fool's errand, but "Real Challenge" is not a fool's errand. It is actually very simple.
Because neither Lu Jin nor Tang Zhou had the baggage of idols.
It's true that Lu Jin is an idol, but the fact that he takes on variety shows alone rather than with a group already shows the problem.
And Lu Jin is an actor who does variety shows without makeup. This alone explains everything.
With this configuration, it’s no wonder that the previous programs were so featureless and could still get a few ratings. At the end of the last season, it reached a ratings of 3% and a market share of 4.8%.
The camera will follow. As long as the last shot is taken and the meeting is filmed, it will end.
Han Zhou opened the door.
In the room, a harmless young man who looked a little shorter than Han Zhou was standing in front of the sofa, watching TV.
"It turns out to be Lu Jin."
Lu Jin turned around and was very happy to see Han Zhou: "So, you are the new guest?"
Executive Director: "Okay, turn off the camera and let's talk alone."
Han Zhou closed the door smoothly and stretched out his hand: "Hello."
Lu Jin stretched out his hand: "I heard from the director that you told him some ideas and he thought they made sense, so he asked me to come over and communicate with you in advance to prepare for some program effects."
Han Zhou smiled: "When the time comes, just look at my eyes and act."
Lu Jin: "???"
After deciding to participate in this show, Han Zhou read the information of all the main guests and chose Lu Jin.
This is a workable material!
Of course, anyone who can make it to this level in the entertainment industry and become the main guest of a popular variety show is a talented person.
The problem is that the movie king Wang Mingyuan is far ahead of the emperor Luo Daming, and there are also first-line singers. They are not people that Han Zhou can mold.
Lu Jin: "At least reveal something in advance so that I can be prepared?"
Han Zhou nodded: "Okay."
"I can tell you the plan. When An Lan and I join the show, we will form a lineup of three old and three new."
"So naturally there are two camps."
"However, we must create various combinations in up to four episodes as soon as possible."
Lu Jin thought thoughtfully: "It's hard to sell individual characters, so we should sell group characters, right?"
"Then what combination will the two of us make?"
Han Zhou: "It's not about selling characters, it's about being forced to combine... Forget it, I won't go into details about this."
"Wolong and Phoenix, the combination of the two of us will be called this name."
When he heard the name of this group, Lu Jin instantly became energetic. Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong were the most brilliant and intelligent people in the Three Kingdoms era.
In other words, they are a group famous for their IQ?
Han Zhou: "I am Wolong and you are Fengchu."
Lu Jin: "Why are you Wolong? How ugly the Phoenix chick is."
Han Zhou sneered: "It's better to be a bit more confident... Ahem, actually Feng Chu... the main reason is that you are from Nanyang, Beihu Province, right? You and Feng Chu Pang Tong are fellow villagers."
"And I am from Shudu. The most famous place in Shudu is Wuhou Temple."
"So this combination is not far-fetched, but makes sense."
Lu Jin nodded: "In other words, in the next few episodes, we have to establish various combination relationships, so that the program can be more interesting."
"Then I understand, I'll go back and make preparations."
Han Zhou: You know a banana sesame stick, you are very smart.
"Yes, yes, that's it, go back quickly." Han Zhou: "I'm going to the main venue."
Over at the main venue, preparations are being made for the road show.
An Lan is also there.
Obviously, Lu Jin came here today not only to chat with Han Zhou, but also to meet with An Lan in advance.
But it seems that he just said a few words briefly.
If Lu Jin really wants to make friends with An Lan or Han Zhou, he can help out with the "Hello Mr. Tree" road show.
However, how can making friends be so simple as just giving first?
This is not realistic either.
Han Zhou just thinks that Lu Jin has a good temperament and is suitable for making friends with, but he may not necessarily succeed.
There are various variety shows performed every day. On the show, everyone has a good relationship, but this is not the case on the show. Everyone becomes close to each other when they meet?
After Lu Jin went out, his manager and assistant came out. The three of them chatted for a few words, and Lu Jin's manager even came forward to chat with Han Zhou.
Then they left together.
Han Zhou watched Lu Jin leave and took a deep breath: "I hope I made the right bet."
Han Zhou's company now only has three people and no artists.
Therefore, this kind of opportunity can cultivate new people, but it can only give the opportunity in vain.
However, if Lu Jin could be made famous, given his character, he would not be a white-eyed wolf.
It can be regarded as an investment in human connections.
Han Zhou turned around and straightened his clothes.
In the hall, he saw An Lan looking towards him with a smile on his face.
Wang Xiya, on the other hand, is discussing the road show with several middle-level managers of Tianle.
Seeing Han Zhou coming, Wang Xiya stepped forward with a smile: "Han Zhou, you should find an assistant. Your time is too casual every time."
Han Zhou nodded: "Look for me when I have the opportunity."
Wang Xiya: "By the way, I found that after watching the movie yesterday, your fans started deceiving people who had not seen the movie online, saying that it was a comedy and night movies could be used to make the box office higher."
Han Zhou looked at Wang Xiya seriously: "Fans can only use it once. After using it once, they become passers-by."
Wang Xiya looked at Han Zhou and thought for a while: "Then there is no need to pursue the box office of "Mr. Hello Tree". Let's build up the reputation and win awards first."
Han Zhou nodded: "How can anyone gain fans as soon as they enter the industry? Chen Feng has been immersed in this industry for 20 years and has never gained fans once, and neither has Liu Yiling."
"Do you want to do an idol show in Tianle?"
Wang Xiya nodded: "I am a little confused. I have been thinking about this matter recently."
Han Zhou pinched his chin: "If you have this idea, I also want to make a combination, and then I will leave it to Tianle and practice with your people."
Wang Xiya raised her eyebrows: "Aren't you afraid that if your people stay in Tianle for a long time, we will pry them away?"
"If you can pry it away, just pry it away." Han Zhou:
"I'm short of money, they're short of opportunities to be famous, and you're short of top-notch people. It's a win-win-win situation."
Wang Xiya patted the chest of Han Zhou's down jacket: "Let's talk in detail later."
"I bought you a set of clothes. You go and try to see if they fit you."
"I'm going to deal with the road show first."
After Wang Xiya left, Han Zhou walked towards An Lan: "Hey, Goddess An is so beautiful today!"
An Lan smiled and said: "Han Zhou, I am going to sing "Childhood" for the first time. What are you going to sing?"
