Zhong Man still remembers that the smart and dazzling woman who was comparable to a star, not long after the earthquake ended, she went against the flow of people and entered the subway station for "inspection" with a disproportionately huge box.
This is something that normal people that Zhong Man is familiar with cannot do anyway. But Zhang Yingying did it so naturally, Tian Si and Tian Qi still thought it was natural.
Frankly speaking, Zhong Mando doubted whether the car was equipped with a hidden camera or something - she felt as if she had been "planned" and unknowingly became a surreal... prank set in a modern city.
A passer-by guest from the show circle.
After that, she had no chance to verify again.
But that profound impression still remains in my mind, supporting a small amount of confidence and even expectation:
"Keep it up, new surprises will appear...right?"
It’s okay if the surprise doesn’t happen. Once it does, it will be surrounded by the current heat, and it may become a super hot spot!
Well, even if you are in the limelight, you must have unique material resources in order to become that flying pig!
So...where are the unique materials?
Zhong Man finally realized that he was busy all day long and sighed again.
"Hello, beauty. How can I help you?"
Just when I was doubting my life, this deliberately controlled voice sounded in my ears, which made people wonder if the other person was specially stuck.
Zhong Man turned his head and saw Tian Qi's seemingly gentle face.
"Sister Man, what a coincidence!" Tian Qi showed a genuine smile of surprise, and at the same time sat down opposite him without any courtesy.
Zhong Man really wanted to come up with something cold like "call me teacher at school", but thinking about the love for the ride that day, he finally just replied with a smile: "Yes, what a coincidence."
In fact, at this time, the probability of meeting Tian Qi at the headquarters of the Occult Research Society is not small at all. Zhong Man did not even deny that she had a little intention to "borrow a ladder" if things did not go well.
idea.
But when things came to an end, Zhong Man's thoughts became dull again.
Tian Qi is obviously thicker-skinned than when we first met that day. He said some words without blushing: "Sister Man, you came to the gear, didn't you come to see me?"
"Um?"
"Uh, no?" After all, Tian Qi's confidence was not enough. He gave Zhong Man a cold look and immediately changed the subject, his eyes wandering to the deep lake, "Manta Ray, you haven't been here during this time... Or is it Ruiwen? Sister Man, are you still here?
Do you want to take pictures of Ruiwen?"
This guy reacts very quickly... Zhong Man didn't understand much about the devil ray or something like that, but when Rui Wen was mentioned later, she didn't have to deny it: "Yeah, it's just right... but I didn't take the photo."
"You definitely can't take the photo!"
"Huh?" Zhong Man stared over again.
This time Tian Qi was confident: "Ruiwen didn't come to school at all, where did you go to take pictures?"
"This is exam season! The exams for the lower grades start today..."
"Hey, did I forget to mention it last time? Ruiwen has been confirmed to repeat the grade and asked for leave directly. She even skipped the final exam!"
"Repeat a grade?" Zhong Man was really dumbfounded. Can this be done during compulsory education?
"There is no way, Ruiwen's mind is not on studying at all. She was skipping classes a few months ago. Her grades are said to be a mess, and she has never been upgraded... ha?"
Tian Qi suddenly shut up because Zhong Man made a "shut up" gesture fiercely and lowered his voice: "Are you crazy? You can say this kind of news in public? If it breaks out, it will undoubtedly be a scandal.
scandal!"
Tian Qi looked at her in surprise: "Well, it's not a secret...by the way, have you already fallen in love with Ruiwen?"
When Zhong Man heard this, she was stunned. After two seconds, she suddenly stood up.
Tian Qi was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly followed: "Don't leave in a hurry, I haven't invited you to drink coffee yet... That's all, why don't we just treat you to a meal."
"No, I'm in a hurry to break the news."
Zhong Man continued to walk out, and Tian Qi followed quickly, a little confused: "Hey, isn't it?"
"It's certainly not the case."
Zhong Man didn't even look back, and responded coldly: "I am the station sister... Now I don't even count the station sister. At most, I am a proxy, not an illegitimate child, not a paparazzi. Why do you want to break the news?"
"Everyone wants to make money. If you want to use your shooting target as a cash cow, the best way is to help idols cultivate and maintain their image. It is not good for everyone if the idol's image collapses. Those who are willing to spend money are still die-hard fans.
Mostly.
"Buying negative things is mostly a one-time deal, and it can lead to enmity... I would never do that even if I was too poor!"
Tian Qi was even more confused after hearing this: "Then, why are you angry?"
Zhong Man finally turned to look at him: "Have you gone to Tianjie today?"
"No, I just got out of the examination room."
"Then go up and take a look. Also, as a friend, even if you are a 'marginal person', at this time, you should think carefully before speaking, so as not to cause trouble to others."
Tian Qi felt aggrieved: "I caused trouble, am I qualified to cause trouble?"
But soon, he confirmed one thing: "Sister Man, you are starting to worry about them...Looking at it this way, the reality card played by the show is quite effective."
"reality?"
"Yes, they are all real scenes, and the people are real, not fake at all. This is how it usually is. Anyone who has been in our club for a long time knows it.
"Over there in the demiplane, some people are still wondering whether this is fake or not; the special effects in the front, the nonsense in the back... I suddenly understand why Ou Que is so agitated. There is no need to explain obvious things.
, just scold me directly!"
Tian Qi's words were not enough, so he counted on his fingers: "Ronan, Ruiwen, Mo Mo, Jerry, the laboratory...ah, where are you? That means you are late, otherwise you will be in the booth."
You should be able to see it more grandly from here."
Zhong Man was a little confused about what Tian Qi meant when he moved his hands like wings when he said it. She also didn't quite understand the "reality" in Tian Qi's words... to what extent it was real, but she didn't get a deep understanding from Tian Qi.
It means to dig.
At present, the two of them are not on the same channel, and it is too difficult to communicate.
"Then we'll see when you have time." Zhong Man waved her hand. She felt relaxed as she was not threatened by the traffic jam, so she just left. "I'll treat you to coffee next time."
After all, Tian Qi's face was not thick enough to be effective, so he could only stop sullenly and shouted without giving up: "Next time, for sure!"
I haven't decided whether to invite you next time or not. But this afternoon, Zhong Man definitely got hurt from drinking coffee. It was past midnight in the faculty dormitory, and he was still in great spirits. He crawled all over the Internet for information, and
They are all related to Raven.
Compared with the current hot trends in the Tianjie community, Zhong Man is actually more concerned about the 7-minute video uploaded on Thursday and the "reality mode" it presents. He spends a lot of time every day and painstakingly works on a large number of earthquake-related videos.
In the topic, pull out the valuable information related to it.
Of course, Zhong Man also looped the 7-minute video countless times and could almost memorize every storyboard - although the value of the video itself is not here.
In Zhong Man's eyes, this seven-minute short video, which supports a reality format and is expensive, does not focus on highlighting the charm of the protagonist Rui Wen. It has no particularly rigorous plot logic, let alone any hints of trailers and krypton gold.
.
It just uses Raven's first perspective to list her surrounding environment, especially those elements that are incompatible with the normal environment, seemingly casually, but very clearly.
From this point of view, when you are around Ruiwen, it seems that you can just find an angle to cut in and form a topic.
But after cutting it open, can you be sure that there is really something inside?
Zhong Man expressed doubts.
But today, Tian Qi's bold statement about "authenticity" made her think more - no matter what, this is just a program. If every link must be "authentic", how much will the cost increase?
ah!
Once Zhong Man thinks a few more things, he becomes pessimistic.
"It's certainly good to play the 'real' card, and it's ambitious... but how many periods can this ambition be sustained?"
It’s not like Zhong Man has never seen amazing plans, many of which are much more eye-catching than this 7-minute video. They can often grab people’s attention from the very beginning and make people extremely convinced:
A classic is about to be born.
But 99.9 percent of them will eventually form a disappointing downward curve.
It’s not that the level of planners and executors is insufficient, or that the abilities of the participants are incompetent, most of it is the result of the entanglement and interference of contradictions such as “cost and quality”, “person and program”, and “current and long-term”.
In the end, it just proves that in the field of entertainment consumption, making money is the first priority, and all "unconventional" will eventually become the "routine" planned by this established principle.
In fact, those "routines" are not unattractive or ineffective. On the contrary, they are already the most efficient means of creating hits in this circle, targeting a broad audience, and have been refined over time.
It's just that people like Zhong Man get tired of it after getting used to it.
As long as Rui Wen and her team cannot escape from the logic of "hot selling" and "encircling money", they are destined to fall into such a "routine". The difference is just the smoothness or steepness of the downward curve.
But then again, regardless of whether it's a "routine" or not, as long as the show becomes popular, she will probably follow it; if Raven becomes popular, she will get excited just thinking about the scene.
Of course, if Ruiwen and her team can outweigh the "routine" with their "ambition", even if it is only temporary, it will be a bigger surprise.
Basically, this has gone beyond the stage of casual fans, right?
Zhong Man made a self-assessment and laughed again.
It was already 2 o'clock in the morning, and he couldn't stay up any longer. Zhong Man gathered his thoughts, picked up the soundproof earplugs and other peripherals with ease, quickly set up a "convenient reality" environment, closed his eyes and lay down, clicked on the cycle
For 7 minutes countless times, the light was adjusted to the darkest level, that is, to the point where only sound could be heard.
These days, she has become accustomed to this.
Because she loved Raven's orderly and charming breathing sound, so she could endure the vampire's squeaking noise and preaching.
Obviously the effects of caffeine haven't worn off yet, but when the video loops to the third time...or maybe the second time? Zhong Man has already fallen asleep soundly.
