At around nine o'clock in the evening, I returned to the TV station with a tired stomach.
Su Yan still overestimated himself. In this afternoon and evening, he only traveled to six places.
Even though I deliberately controlled the amount, I still couldn't hold it in any longer. I felt like I couldn't continue to make a correct judgment, so I decided to wait until tomorrow.
Wang Yangyang was okay, most of the food was in his stomach, and it seemed he could continue to fight.
The key is that the taste is pretty good. I think it's delicious, but to him it's just average.
After finishing the last barbecue, I wanted to take him to another spot, but Su Yan stopped me. He still had some unfinished ideas.
The lights are still on in the office, and it seems that someone is still working overtime.
Except for a few staff members, Su Yan was a little surprised by the people smiling and saying hello.
Xiao Nanyuan.
"Hey, will there be a refrigerator recording tomorrow?" Su Yan asked Wang Yangyang.
The little fat man shook his head: "Not that fast."
"What are you doing here?"
"Eh!?"
Brother Nan became unnatural and the smile on his face froze.
That's not it, other people are very happy when they see me, but when I come to the director, he doesn't seem too happy.
Looking for help, Wang Yangyang looked at Wang Yangyang, who didn't look sideways and had no intention of helping.
"Director Su, I'm here to participate in the recording of tomorrow's program. Didn't you recommend me?" Brother Nan felt aggrieved.
Su Yan then remembered that yesterday Director Wang specifically reminded "The Masked Singer" that eating too much would affect the brain.
The staff next to me chatted.
"Xiao Xiao has been waiting for a few hours. Your mobile phone is turned off. We told him that he was out for business today and might not come back. We asked him to go back first and come back tomorrow. If the young man doesn't want to, just wait here."
Su Yan was a little surprised.
On the contrary, Brother Nan was a little embarrassed: "Thanks to the director for being able to participate in the show. Since I'm here, I must visit first."
"Well! I saw you, you can go now." Su Yan said with a cold face.
"Hey, no. I, what, okay." Xiao Nanyuan panicked. Did he not know that he had done something wrong and offended the director?
Seeing the other party's embarrassed look, Su Yan laughed out loud.
Only then did Brother Nan realize that he was amused.
He took a long breath with some resentment: "Director, it's so late, it should be okay. How about I invite everyone to have a midnight snack?"
Su Yan shook his head: "You go ahead, I'll forget it. I haven't digested it yet, so I probably won't be able to sleep at night."
Xiaopang explained on the side: "The director is preparing a new program about food. I ate for several hours today."
New show!
Brother Nan grasped the key point and looked at Su Yan with hope.
"I won't have you this time." Su Yan replied angrily: "Practice well first. There are plenty of opportunities. Don't try to get involved in everything."
"Director, I have something else to do this time." Xiao Nanyuan said solemnly: "Minjiang Satellite TV wants to sign a contract with me. What do you think?"
"What do you think?" Su Yan did not answer him directly.
"Privately, I asked Yoniko-kun and the others, but they didn't receive an invitation. It was just me. After hearing what I said, they were very supportive, but I still want to hear your suggestions.
After all, my income now is much more than that of hosting. If I make a sudden change and don't do well, it may be difficult for me to go back."
Brother Nan answered very seriously.
Su Yan did not answer immediately, but took him to the corridor outside the door.
"I'm not very familiar with your live broadcast industry, but I think it's similar to the entertainment industry, and the competition is very cruel.
Although you are doing well now, have you ever thought about what the mainstream is? How can you grasp it and avoid being eliminated?
Think about it, your number of fans now should be much more than before. This is because you have been blessed by participating in the show.
If you join a TV station, your income may not be as high as before for the time being, and you will be facing a group of people all over the country. By the way, local TV stations do not restrict hosts from filming commercials."
Although he didn't explain it directly, Xiao Nanyuan already understood what the other party meant.
"Thank you, director. Then I will discuss the termination of the contract with the platform as soon as possible."
Su Yan thought for a while: "If you have any questions, you can contact me. In addition, don't accept any more programs from other stations. I will join Minjiang soon. They will not be allowed in the future."
Brother Nan nodded gratefully.
He is a contracted anchor on the platform, and the liquidated damages are still quite high for him, but with Su Yan's guarantee, communication will be much easier.
After all, you are not jumping to another platform, but to a TV station. The other party should not offend a giant.
Finally, Su Yan patted the other party on the shoulder: "Do a good job, this stage is far bigger than you think."
Declining the invitation for midnight snacks and letting them go by themselves, Su Yan returned to the dormitory alone.
Now this two-bedroom apartment is his own.
After cleaning up for a while and taking a shower, I sadly discovered that it seemed to be indigestion.
I really admire the host of the original show, Uncle Bai, who is in his early 50s and still full of energy.
Before 2015, he was just an ordinary businessman, specializing in restaurants. It can be said that as long as there is a representative diet, he is involved in it, and he does it all himself.
And it's not all smooth sailing. Some stores have become popular, and many have ended up closing down.
Later, he participated in a program similar to a live broadcast. With his deep understanding of food, unique eloquence of a businessman, and his blessed mukbang, he became an instant hit.
Invitations to various food programs continued one after another, and in the end they were all named after him, a very successful transformation person.
Su Yan chose "Street Food Warrior", a program with a short filming period but very high popularity.
I remember that some of the issues were filmed in China, and everyday foods such as steamed buns, pancakes, and mapo tofu looked so tempting under Uncle Bai's performance.
The most important thing was his appetite. He ate a few kilograms of big bones without hesitation.
Since he couldn't sleep for the time being, Su Yan simply turned on the computer and started sorting out today's harvest and shooting plans.
The program is actually very simple. It is just a man holding a camera and taking the audience and friends around the country to find special food, with some humanistic geography interspersed in the middle.
As for photography, there is a unique innovation.
Generally, the program starts with the raw materials and follows the rhythm until the final product is served on the table. This is the process.
However, in street food, we do the opposite, take the prepared food backwards, strip it out one by one, and restore the essence of the ingredients.
For example, Mapo Tofu, it was not enough to recreate and photograph the tofu processing process. In the later stage, a farmer uncle was added to the scene of harvesting soybeans in the field.
Not only that, some of the slow-motion close-ups and camera tracking during cooking are all original and look very innovative.
As a result, the number of words in the document is increasing, and Su Yan has foreseen that several photographers will complain.
