"Niaoyue, my city, here, the gears driving the global economy don't stop for a moment."
"This concrete forest drives the global economy with unparalleled strength and perseverance!"
"It's not easy to survive in Manhattan. This island is a dangerous jungle. If you are not careful, you may be eaten alive..."
"But as long as you work hard, you can also become successful, famous, and prosperous!"
At the beginning of the scene, there was an ordinary aerial shot of a date, where Kathy's nine-year-old son exclaimed and was excited because he discovered his home in the shot.
But Kathy's face was expressionless. As a professional TV critic, she naturally would not have any reaction to an ordinary aerial shot, and instead she was a little disappointed.
It seems that the beginning of this show is no different from the beginning of other variety shows.
On a five-point scale, the beginning is at most three points, which is quite satisfactory...
At this time, the scene suddenly changed, and Tang Pu appeared in front of the camera: "I am Tang Pu, the largest real estate developer in Japan. The properties under my name include buildings in various places, modeling agency, Miss Universe pageant, jet
airplanes, golf courses, casinos and private resorts, where the scenery is some of the best in the world..."
Okay, only 1 star, no more.
Kathy didn't like Tang Pu. In her opinion, this old man with strange hair always liked to talk too much. Just like now, seeing him touting his industry on TV, Kathy had an even less favorable impression of the program.
But it turns out that Cathy's son really liked this.
After hearing what Tang Pu said on TV, he couldn't help but ask: "Mom, has Mr. Tang Pu ever been so powerful? Has he ever been bankrupt? That's amazing!"
"Dear, that's just him bragging. Bankruptcy is just his way of getting rid of debts. There's nothing to admire..."
Kathy began to have some doubts about whether this program was suitable for her son to watch.
Fortunately, Tang Pu's bragging finally came to an end, and all sixteen contestants took the stage to compete to become Tang Pu's apprentice.
Here, Cathy discovered something out of the ordinary.
That's the special effects subtitles, what the Chinese call "huazi".
This technology has actually been used in many places in Asia for a long time, but on the other side of the ocean, it is a new thing.
Television stations on the other side of the ocean may rarely use this technology because they worry that English fancy characters take up too much space, or they don’t want to overwhelm the guest.
Therefore, Kathy felt very fresh about these fancy words appearing on the screen.
Judging from the actual effect, the production company is also very skilled in the use of flowery characters. They seem to have fully considered the inconvenience of using flowery characters in English, so they used a large number of onomatopoeia and animation effects instead of pure text.
In this way, the whole picture looks very lively and interesting.
A few points can be made on this point.
Casey wrote it down in his notebook.
What she didn't know was that this time, Tang Pu's "The Apprentice" was able to use this technology extensively because his production company had sent relevant technical personnel to China's Donghai Satellite TV to follow "Running"
The production team of "Brothers" spent several weeks learning from their experience to achieve the perfect performance now.
After that, the plot progresses rapidly.
Here, unlike the previous version of "The Apprentice", Lin Chen specifically instructed the production team to speed up the editing in order to better improve the effect.
In the previous life, it took almost 10 minutes from the time the contestants appeared to the start of the first event!
This is the first episode of the show. Doesn’t the production team have any idea how many people can be persuaded to quit in this boring 10 minutes?
After seeing that the original script of this life had the same arrangement, Lin Chen directly instructed them to increase the speed of the program and get to the point directly. As for the background introduction of the contestants, all the background introductions were canceled or put at the back.
So not long after the first episode started, the sixteen contestants faced their first challenge.
Selling Victoria's Secret's new underwear on the street!
The sixteen contestants were divided into two groups of men and women, with eight people in each group, to take on this challenge together. The winning group will be lucky enough to stay in Trump’s luxury apartment for one night, while the losing group will be called together by Trump.
, explain why they were unsuccessful, and one person will be eliminated.
Selling underwear on the street sounds like a simple task, but it is quite difficult, especially since one group is all made up of men, which makes the show seem to have no suspense right from the start.
However, the next plot was unexpected. Although at the beginning, the girl group had good results on the street. They made full use of their advantages as girls and used underwear to sell products in various places where women often hang out. Some people also used their beauty to successfully
Sold a lot of underwear to a group of men.
But what I didn't expect was that a few people in the boys' group actually found a new way and started marketing using the Internet.
They did not run around like a girl group under the sun. Instead, they organized everyone together and found customers through mobile phones and social networks.
As a result, they successfully found an underwear dealer in China through the Internet, and successfully negotiated over the phone and online.
When finally, in the conference room of Tangpu Building, Tangpu's eldest son, Tangpu Jr., announced the results, everyone was dumbfounded.
The girls team broke their legs and took advantage of women's advantages. They even paid for their appearance and sold only more than 200 pieces of underwear in one day.
The boys' group, however, used the Internet to sell 10,000 pieces of Victoria's Secret's new underwear at once!
Such a huge disparity amazed Tang Pudu, and Cathy in front of the TV couldn't help but cover her mouth. This was the first time she knew that business could still be done like this.
Then at this time, she suddenly realized that her son had also watched it from beginning to end, and in the TV show just now, when the girls' group was selling underwear, it seemed that some scenes were not very suitable for children to watch...
Damn it! I was completely fascinated!
Casey was shocked and said, how long has it been since he watched a variety show with such devotion? He never expected that he would be in such a situation on Tang Pu's show.
Kathy had already passed the climax because of the show, but what happened next was beyond her expectation.
When the winning boys group went to Tang Pu's mansion, they visited Tang Pu's glitzy and splendid mansion together with the audience in front of the TV, and enjoyed a big meal inside.
The defeated girls group actually started to fight!
