A few days later, the two returned to Qinghe. Chen Jianshu welcomed the new colleague and showed him around.
A program will only have one chief director, but there can be several directors, especially for programs with a large number of participants.
Su Yan himself found Huang Lei, who was chatting with Qinghe's general manager.
"Hey, you're back." Teacher Huang was very happy to see Su Yan: "Why don't you stay at home for a few more days."
"Mr. Wang is here too. I just have something to discuss with you." Su Yan sat next to the two of them.
"I plan to make a long-term program. Sister Hong is writing a plan. At the same time, it is estimated that a lot of people will be hired. I hope the company can also help me."
Wang Tianshan, general manager of Qinghe Company, is responsible for all matters.
After hearing this, he and Teacher Huang looked at each other and smiled.
"What a coincidence. In fact, we have always wanted to make a longevity program like "Camp".
After all, it is an economic company, and the number of artists will gradually increase. It will definitely be a lot more convenient if you can have your own show during the promotion period or debut.
Teacher Huang doesn't want to force you. I told him many times, but he was rejected all the time.
I didn’t expect that Director Su would bring it up today.”
"Can you say no? What made you change your mind?"
He has known Su Yan for a long time, and Huang Lei understands him well.
I don’t have high requirements for material things or fame. To put it bluntly, I’m just a bit salty.
I was extremely serious when filming the show. Once I took a break, I tried my best not to sit down if I could lie down.
Several previous shows were only filmed for one season. Even for programs like "Run!", I never thought of striking while the iron was hot.
Su Yan took a sip of the hot tea poured by the other party: "Isn't it because the people below have some ideas? They want to eat, make money, and support their families.
Moreover, every time we film a show, we have to find people temporarily. If something goes wrong, we will be very passive.
Since we are planning to build our own team, we must ensure that we have work to do, so we might as well create a long-term program.”
Huang Lei was very relaxed when he heard what he said: "Why don't you introduce your ideas to us and gain some knowledge?"
The two of them were looking forward to it, wondering what kind of surprise Su Yan would give.
An hour later, the tea in front of Huang Lei and others had already become cold and they had forgotten to drink it.
I thought it was just an idea, but I didn't expect that good things come in pairs, and it sounds very powerful.
Mr. Wang exclaimed: "Director Su, I can only say that Qinghe is really lucky to have you."
Su Yan waved his hand: "I am also a shareholder, so naturally I should contribute. After listening, you can give me your opinion, which one should be done first?"
Huang Lei thought about it for a few minutes: "Actually, there's no rush to make a decision. Even if filming starts, it will be after the New Year, right?
For "2 Days and 1 Night", the pre-preparation needs to be more thorough. At least multiple shooting locations must be visited before starting, and the movement of so many people must also be arranged.
For "Challenge", if the link design is good, the efficiency will be higher, and there is no need to rush around. It is estimated that the filming can be completed in 1-2 days, and the post-production time can also be shortened."
"So Mr. Huang is more in favor of doing "Challenge" first?" asked Mr. Wang.
"No, only children make choices, I! Want them all."
Su Yan understood: "Actually, the problem with shooting is to arrange the time well, such as one program from Monday to Wednesday, and another program during the rest of the time.
As long as there is a tacit understanding of the team and there are enough staff, it is not a big problem, but it will be harder for people.
What I care more about is the host lineup. Mr. Huang, do you think you can span two programs?"
Huang Lei shook his head: "Both of these programs are not simple, and neither one is easy. In "21", you have to run outdoors every day. According to your plan, you may not even be able to eat well or sleep well. I'm afraid it will be too much for you.
As for "Challenge", I can barely handle it. At least I finished filming Running Man and I didn't stop exercising.
It’s just how you arrange the other choices.”
"I want Hu Shuai." That's all Su Yan said.
"Okay!" Huang Lei said simply: "Tell him yourself."
"Forget it!"
"Hahaha" the two laughed.
In fact, Su Yan also knew that it would be no problem to find Lao Hu as a guest, but it would still be difficult to secure him.
After all, he is very busy, and to be honest, he is not proactive about participating in these programs, and is even a little repellent. As a friend, he will definitely not embarrass him.
"I plan to move the Running Man lineup directly to "Challenge" because everyone is familiar with it and can get started quickly.
For "21", we still have to pick someone else."
"Are you planning to play "The Challenge" first?"
"This is the arrangement for the time being. The broadcasting of TV stations and advertisements will trouble Mr. Wang."
"In any case, this is not my responsibility, but when it comes to this, we are halfway through the filming of "Three Meals a Day". Wanbei has asked several times and wants to continue to cooperate with us."
"Yes." Huang Lei continued: "We have also watched the finished film. Although it is not the same as a traditional variety show, after watching it, I can say that it is comfortable.
The whole person felt very comfortable, and it seemed that all the troubles were forgotten. Even though I acted by myself, I was still drawn in unconsciously.
I think the ratings won’t be too bad.”
Su Yan was happy: "Since both presidents agree, there is no need to rush. There will be many special programs and parties at the end of the year, so we don't need to join in the fun.
It would be better to give the audience a surprise after the new year, that would also be good."
Huang Lei heard that it made sense and nodded in agreement.
"Also, I have a high school classmate who just came back from abroad. I plan to recruit him into the team."
"You can handle this matter yourself, I don't care."
"That's okay."
"Oh, by the way, are you confident about the China Cup next month?" Huang Lei suddenly remembered.
"Winning this award is not about doing your best and obeying fate. That's what you said."
"It's different. If they are all about the same strength, that's the truth. But once the gap is huge, then it's natural to get it. Qinghe needs a heavyweight award."
Mr. Wang is not so optimistic: "This year's situation is a little different, it's no longer the top taking the lead.
If these first-line satellite TV stations jointly host it, their elbows might turn inwards."
"Don't be too pessimistic." Huang Lei patted his shoulder: "The quality of our program is there, and we are not afraid of any challenges.
Su Yan smiled and said, "Teacher Huang, you have been shortlisted for the Variety Show Awards in the past two years. Doesn't that mean you are not doing your job properly?"
"No matter what, I'm actually just...well, as long as the audience is happy after watching it."
"By the way, I can't go to the awards ceremony."
"What's wrong?"
"It's my grandma's 80th birthday. I must go back."
After hearing this reason, the two of them didn't say much. They still had to prepare some work when the time came to avoid any gossip.
Huang Lei also specially recorded it in the memo on his mobile phone and planned to give a backup gift to Grandma Su.
