Chapter 214 Is this what you said, 'The Longing for Life'? (1/2)
In the variety show industry, Yang Han is indeed a layman! He had previously planned to copy the original version of "Late Night Diner" and make it into a gourmet slow variety show. But Gu Baojun's words made Yang Han suddenly wake up.
He suddenly realized that this program of his was really not feasible!
Forget about advertising, Yang Han feels that advertising sponsorship is just the icing on the cake. For the sake of the integrity and enjoyment of the program, he can give up advertising sponsorship and simply invest in a program by himself.
It's just that he still has to consider the audience's feelings!
Yang Han assumed the role of the audience, and when she looked back at the program, it seemed that there was really nothing to watch.
First of all, a restaurant that is full of literary and artistic atmosphere like Midnight Cafeteria is very out of touch. There seem to be very few Japanese restaurants like this in China, right? What everyone likes is not all those that are full of life like teahouses.
A small restaurant? Or a food stall or a fly restaurant that is not very hygienic, but has taken over the memories of many people at the bottom?
Secondly, as the protagonists of this restaurant, I and Yang Ruoyi don’t seem to have anything worth talking about. Looking back on the drama Midnight Diner, the uncle is not actually the protagonist. He is more like a warm-hearted listener. The protagonist is actually
It has to be people who have great stories, or tell their stories!
But the reason why Late Night Canteen is so popular is that the actors’ acting skills are on point and the story is deeply rooted in people’s hearts. As for the show he is going to do, the diners are all his fans, and their reactions to him are basically the same!
And they only told their stories in a narrating way. Regardless of whether the telling effect was good or not, Yang Han felt that from the perspective of an audience, such a disguised chat show must be boring!
In addition, Yang Han also thought of the domestic version of "Midnight Diner". He had not watched it because the reputation was so bad, but according to the discussions among netizens he used to watch on his mobile phone, this adapted domestic drama does exist.
The issues I mentioned above.
In particular, it also contains a lot of advertisements, which really affects the perception!
Domestic dramas are out of date, and I actually fantasize about turning it into a variety show.
…
"Teacher Gu, look at this show, how can we change it to make it more marketable? Are we going to invite some celebrities to come and participate in our show?" While Yang Han was deep in thought, Dong Yixia looked at her boss worriedly, scared.
He would be hit hard, and she even took the initiative to help Yang Han ask Gu Baojun for advice.
"Actually, Teacher Yang's idea is not unfeasible. He wants to use food as a medium to tell the stories of ordinary people. I think it is very interesting!" Gu Baojun said, "It just may need to be adjusted."
"For example, we can collect stories, but the stories need to be arranged by professional screenwriters to make the originally dull stories more compact and exciting, and a certain amount of emotional sublimation is also required, which can make the program more
Something to watch!”
"Then we can't invite inexperienced audiences to perform. We should adopt a model like a small theater and invite professional actors with acting skills to perform. They may not necessarily be stars, but their acting skills are in place and it is more important to highlight the character image. In addition, we
We also need to reshoot some plots outside the store and add them in the subsequent editing..."
"This shouldn't be considered a variety show, right? Why does it sound more like a movie to me?" Dong Yixia is also a layman, but she is also well-informed in this industry and knows a little bit about everything.
"It should be said to be a TV series!" Yang Han suddenly interjected, and after speaking, he smiled bitterly and shook his head.
He really didn't expect that he changed the idea of someone else's TV series into a variety show. This change was full of mistakes, but Gu Baojun helped him fill in the loopholes with his professional eyes. As a result, he changed, changed, and changed it back to a TV series.
went!
Gu Baojun thought that Yang Han was dissatisfied, so he quickly said: "Teacher Yang, if you really want to do a variety show, it's not impossible. Your kind of slow variety reality show should be considered a reality show. There is still a market for slow variety shows in China now."
Yes! It’s just that we may have to change it a little more.”
"The Slow Variety Show emphasizes eliminating complexity and simplifying it. There is no fierce game competition, and there is no script dictated by our program team. It will not give any special requirements to the guests. What needs to be done is to provide a real and relaxing environment for the audience to
See the guests in their most natural state!”
"But obviously, ordinary fans lack a selling point as guests. If you instead invite celebrities, or invite successful people from all walks of life, and people with a certain fan base to come to the store, they order food, and then
You come and cook for them, chat while cooking, and tell their own stories while eating. I think such a variety show can be very attractive!"
"Wait a minute, isn't this "Longing for Life"?" Yang Han sat there with a dumbfounded expression.
Isn't it?
Am I the time traveler, or are you the time traveler?
Speaking of doing variety shows, will you help me change "Late Night Diner" into "Longing for Life"?
Although Gu Baojun's ideas are still limited to the "Late Night Canteen" set built by Yang Han, he talked about inviting celebrities and big names, asking them to order food, and asking them to tell their stories.
Is it the same trick as in "Longing for Life"?
"What's "Longing for Life"?" Gu Baojun was certainly not a time traveler, and he looked at Yang Han with a blank look on his face.
"No, this is another variety show I envisioned. However, this show is not set to be recorded in Yangcheng. I will choose original ecological villages in different places in the country as filming locations. For example, in the first season, we can go
Go to the small fishing village on Nanhai Island, facing the sea, with spring flowers blooming. In the second season, you can go to the small mountain village in southern Hunan, with mountains, water, and outstanding people. In the third season... this is just what I thought about, where I really want to go.
It still requires on-site inspection." Yang Han said with a smile.
"In the local area, we can buy or rent a small farmhouse and make it a little cleaner and more beautiful, but we must retain the local characteristics. Then there are four people in the small courtyard as permanent hosts. I and a person with connections in the entertainment industry
A relatively popular star, he can handle the celebrity guests who come in the future and liven up the atmosphere, and then there are two young children, I think one is Yang Ruoyi, and the other is a hard-working, capable, hard-working boy, who is also a star!"
"In each issue, we invite several celebrity guests. In addition to letting them order food, we also invite them to the fields to do some farm work such as weeding and planting rice, or to fish in small ponds.
, shopping for food at the wet market is a very common and down-to-earth job! The second thing is that I cook, and everyone tastes the food I cooked after working hard together, and chats together..."
What Yang Han described was a slow variety show with a rural theme that had never appeared on Earth before. But when Yang Han said it, Gu Baojun's eyes lit up.
"This show is good!" Gu Baojun said excitedly, "Teacher Yang, what you mentioned, all the selling points needed for a variety show are there, including celebrities, storytelling, and inviting celebrities to experience farm work. This is also very interesting.
Sex is definitely a very attractive selling point! No one dared to torment those celebrities like this before. As long as it is arranged properly, I believe there will be many people who want to watch it!"
"I also think this show is very interesting!" Dong Yixia laughed - she was thinking of the artist Ning Peidong she had led before, who also didn't like to participate in variety shows. If he and Yang Han were in a show
Working in the fields and being tortured by the program crew, I will definitely want to watch it.
Yang Han shook his head: "But I don't really want to start this show so early. Because I have just entered the industry, and I can't invite many stars..."
This is Yang Han's true words, and "Longing for Life" is also within his plan! To be more realistic, Yang Han wants to pave the way for his daughter by making such a program, because doing "Longing for Life",
Yang Ruoyi will definitely be able to get to know many celebrity seniors that she has never had the chance to meet, which will definitely help her future development!
However, he still wants to postpone it for two years before taking it out, because his foundation is still too shallow and he cannot achieve the same level of popularity and connections as Teacher He and Huang Xiaochu on earth!
If Yang Han builds a small farmhouse, who would be willing to come and be a guest?
"I think Mr. Yang, if you come up with a plan, our station will be very interested and will work with you to produce this program." Gu Baojun liked the plan Yang Han said very much. If Yang Han wanted
If he did, he would definitely spare no effort to help Yang Han promote this project. Of course, he would also strive to get the position of producer, so he told Yang Han sincerely.
Cooperating with Magic TV on "Longing for Life"? It's not impossible, but coming to your door to beg for cooperation is not what Yang Han wants.
Therefore, Yang Han was not moved, but smiled slightly. He fixed his gaze on Gu Baojun and said sincerely: "Teacher Gu, please come and help me! Whether it is the previous TV series or this "Longing for Life"
, I really need a professional producer like you!"
