Chapter 36 The night is long and the stars are about to dawn
Wei Yang and the others stayed in the lounge for two hours before it was their turn to officially record.
Yang Rong was thankful in his heart. Thanks to Wei Yang's ability, if he had waited stupidly at the scene, he would have suffered a lot even if he could find a place to rest later.
"Teachers, take another look at the script in your hand. It contains sample questions that will be mentioned. The host can also give free rein and everyone can respond randomly."
The director came over and reviewed the process for the final time. If it is a big-name star, various issues must be confirmed clearly.
Newcomers like them don't need to put in so much effort. They can just give them a range and then splice and edit from a bunch of problematic materials.
Even if the guest makes a fool of himself by giving a wrong answer, they don't care, and may even be happier because the representative has something exciting to say.
There are also some unscrupulous program crews who will even deliberately dig holes to create trouble and create problems for the program.
The managers of the three people specifically warned them to be careful in advance, but after all, "The Best of Us" is broadcast on Shanghai TV, and they are also promoting the TV series. They are half of their own people, so the program team probably won't target them in any way.
After reviewing the script and touching up their makeup, a few people came to the studio to record and exchanged a few words with the host Chen Chen.
Among the hosts of various major TV stations, the hosts of Shanghai TV are not very famous. The more well-known ones include "Nine Turns of Large Intestines" Cao Kefan, "Xue Zhiqian's good brother" Zhu Zhen, and "China's Got Talent" host Cheng Lei
.
Even a professional host is bound to gossip, so out of curiosity I asked about the female classmate.
While handing out the knife, Wei Yang also took the time to place an advertisement for "Orange in Huainan".
"Yu Huai and Lu Xinghe are also very popular. How about it? Will the audience recognize them when they go out now?"
Yang Rong nodded in thanks: "I have also received a lot of feedback from the audience, and I am especially grateful for everyone's love."
"This script was first born when I was chatting with a female classmate. She liked her deskmate in high school, but her deskmate was very good and she had a little low self-esteem. In the end, she had a crush on her deskmate for three years.
So this conversation was actually true, but the background of the story was blurred, from the current Magic City area in the show to the nationwide area after it was broadcast on the star.
"I was actually quite sorry, so I wrote another story about secret love later on. It can be regarded as a companion piece to "The Best of Us", and it also has a happy ending."
For part of the plot of the TV series, I mixed some experiences of myself and my friends in high school, which is probably 30% true and 70% false..."
Chen Chen was smart and cooperated, then changed the topic to "The Best of Us".
"I have been watching this drama. It really makes me feel the youthful days in high school. I especially like Geng Geng, who is so frank and cute."
Wei Yang explained: "These two names are taken from Bai Juyi's "Song of Everlasting Sorrow": "The bells and drums are late and the night is long, and the stars are approaching the dawn of the sky."
…
"Geng Geng Yu Huai, this name is a perfect match. In fact, you can tell who you prefer from this."
Chen Chen and Yang Rong couldn't hide their disappointment, but Wei Yang was very calm. It was so beautiful as it was described. Come on, let's watch a real-life idol drama. You'll be interested in it and do some random research. What should you do if you find something fishy?
"Life is not a TV show. Before she could muster up the courage to confess her love, her deskmate already had a girlfriend. The university was not in the same city, so the relationship ended in vain."
No wonder Wei Yang's communication skills are so strong, he probably developed them by chatting with others and accumulating inspiration!
"Did that female classmate finally confess her love to her Yu Huai? Are they together?"
"..."
In this interview, Chen Chen was very interested in Wei Yang, not because he was handsome, but because he had a special identity and was really worth exploring.
After the opening remarks and self-introduction, Chen Chen began to praise "The Best of Us".
The recording task was heavy, so Chen Chen didn't waste much time. He briefly touched on the background and personalities of several people in a few words to facilitate a short conversation, then said hello to the director and started recording the program.
For example, the program being recorded now will most likely be aired for a few days after "The Best of Us" is on the air. It will be released online after it has accumulated a certain degree of fixed influence. At that time, the audience will also be willing to know the stories behind the TV series.
It has to be so bland and uneventful that no one is interested in getting to the bottom of it.
After all, I have written a script from a female perspective, and even if I have an audience as a raft, I still have to find an excuse to cover it up.
Since Wei Yang and the others are newcomers, their early publicity role is limited, so most of the publicity activities they participate in are the latter.
Therefore, in the program, Chen Chen said that "The Best of Us" has become a hit, and Wei Yang and the others also fully felt the enthusiasm of the audience.
When I heard this story, I felt that there was a lot of room for creativity. Based on this, I created Geng Geng, and then derived characters such as Yu Huai and Lu Xinghe.
"Maybe many viewers don't know that the screenwriter of "The Best of Us" is Wei Yang. I'm curious, is the story of this drama based on your own experience? Are you Yu Huai or Lu Xinghe in reality?"
The promotional activity of "The Best of Us" is divided into two parts. One part is pre-heating to attract attention, and the other part is to cooperate with the broadcast to consolidate the ratings.
"Good evening, viewers, this is "New Entertainment Online". Today we are fortunate to invite several leading actors of the popular "The Best of Us"..."
"It turns out that their two names are also related."
It is common for screenwriters or authors to chat with someone and have an idea. They come up with an outline of a script and a novel.
In fact, it may be that you search for ancient poems by name, and use whatever words sound good to you.
And these feelings and sharing are not fake. "The Best of Us" premiered in Shanghai and is still very popular.
It’s reasonable and can be used every time!
The host Chen Chen had no doubts, and Yang Rong and Cui Peng suddenly realized it.
In almost every interview, Wei Yang has to answer this question, and he is already familiar with it.
And Chen Chen, who hosts "New Entertainment Online", should not be underestimated. She is a Hua Dan focused on training by Magic City TV and will be the first sister of Magic City TV in the future.
"What a pity."
"Get ready, we'll start right away."
This set of rhetoric is also made up of seven falsehoods and three truths. It is mixed with some of Wei Yang's own experiences and knowledge. It is true, and the idea of inspiration from chatting with female classmates is false.
"No, no, no, Geng Geng and Yu Huai's names have allusions, and Geng Geng and Lu Xinghe also have allusions."
Chen Chen was particularly fond of this kind of routine, and Balabala began to read and understand: "So these two poems imply a plot, Lu Xinghe spends a long night with Geng Geng, sends her to a new tomorrow, and then chooses to let go..."
"neither."
"Then I must take a look."
Wei Yang very interestingly shared an interesting story about being asked for an autograph while eating, and Cui Peng also said that a friend called him to compliment him on his character.
Because the name was invalid, Wei Yang, who usually searched for names in "Chinese and Western Pharmacopoeia" and "Ancient Poetry Election", strongly doubted the original author's naming ideas.
However, facing Chen Chen who was a young man, he still nodded without hesitation.
"You analyzed it very well!"
For reading comprehension, it doesn’t matter what the “original” idea is, just be direct, yes, yes, yes, and that’s it…
