Entertainment: I really want to make progress

Chapter 217 Running Man Recording, Making a Lot of Money

What is the most important function of a TV variety show?

It's nothing more than entertainment.

Indoor variety shows like "Happy Camp", although they still have many fans due to the fixed format, their ratings have been declining.

The audience's G-spot became higher and they wanted to watch more exciting programs.

As for "Running Man", a new model of variety show that breaks away from the fixed indoor model and instead uses comedy narrative to tell the show's story, there is no doubt that it is very promising.

Zhou Yutang put a lot of thought into this program and started planning it last year.

Team members were sent to South Korea to exchange experiences in outdoor variety show recording. Later, even during the filming of the movie, they had multiple video conferences with the planning department of Mingjie Company late into the night.

Currently, the variety show planning department is divided into several groups. The director group alone has 20 people and more than a dozen screenwriters.

On-site photography, post-production planning, advertising execution, service management and other teams

Such a configuration is not inferior to some high-cost movies. The production cost of this outdoor variety show is hundreds of millions.

The most critical thing is the personality and positioning of the hosts.

Outdoor variety shows are not about running around and having fun, but within a specific script framework, giving them full space to perform.

I held a meeting with several hosts and people from the program team.

Afterwards, Zhou Yutang took Jing Tian and Zhang Ruojun to the backstage lounge to have a private photo session with the main creators.

within this group of people.

Deng Chao is positioned as the captain, Sha Yi and Chen Chichi are the funny people in the team, and Wang Baoru is also an old friend of Zhou Yutang.

They also understood what Zhou Yutang meant and wanted to take care of the newcomer.

Deng Chao took the initiative and said: "Yu Tang, this is also my first time. When the time comes, we will communicate more and make the show a success."

Wang Bao's grinning eyes narrowed into slits: "Ruojun and Tiantian are very good, let's do a good show together then."

"Mr. Zhou, you are too polite. These are all small things."

Sha Yi is also very easy to talk to.

After a simple and pleasant exchange.

The official shooting started soon.

This is the first outdoor variety show in China, and several hosts are also trying to cross the river by feeling the stones.

Although I knew the character design assigned to me by the program team and the specific process of the program, when it came time to actually shoot, I didn't know exactly what I was going to do.

at this time.

Zhou Yutang's opinion was particularly important. As the chief planner of the program, he issued orders to several departments to conduct a relatively simple opening recording first.

Each episode of the program is only more than an hour long, but three or four hours of shooting material needs to be collected, and the shooting time is expected to be two to three days.

The easiest part is to record the opening of each host and give a brief introduction to each person within a few minutes.

Deng Chao wore a small suit and performed an impromptu dance similar to Ax Gang leader Chen's impromptu dance at the beginning.

Bao Hao showed off Shaolin Kung Fu, Sha Yi performed his signature sunflower acupuncture technique, Zhang Ruojun performed magic tricks, and Da Tiantian made a heroic appearance in a sports car and dressed as an agent.

"Tiantian, well done."

They are all professional actors, and the opening night shooting went smoothly. After Zhou Yutang discussed with the directing team, he was quite satisfied with the effect.

Several hosts have their own characteristics, which are easy for the audience to remember.

And Da Tiantian usually doesn't show off her beauty, but when she wears this special leather coat, she unexpectedly has a pretty good figure.

As expected, he also has a background in dance.

After changing clothes and changing scenes, Jing Tian found Zhou Yutang and said with some surprise: "Brother Yutang, I suddenly feel a little less confident."

The director team were all busy doing their own thing. Although some people were guessing about the relationship between Jing Tian and Zhou Yutang, they seemed to have ignored it.

"Don't be afraid."

Zhou Yutang gave her a tip: "Tiantian, you can follow Deng Chao and Sha Yi when the time comes. They will work on the program effects, and you will have no shortage of scenes."

"oh."

Jing Dian nodded.

Then enter the official recording.

"Hello, Brother Chao."

"Lao Sha."

"Baochao."

When we met for the first time on the show, several people greeted each other politely and yet awkwardly.

Everyone was inexperienced, so Deng Chao gave full play to his role as a runner captain and clapped his hands: "Let's have a drink!"

Number 1 follows the camera and shows the RIO cocktail on the table.

no way.

Too much money was given.

I heard that it was Zhou Yutang's variety show, and RIO Cocktail spent heavily on advertising.

"Come on, cheers!"

After clinking glasses, Deng Chao smacked his lips and said seriously: "Comrades, today we are here to escort the treasure."

"Ah? Brother Chao, are you just saying it now?"

Zhang Ruojun pointed to the RIO cocktail on the table in front of him, pretending to be surprised: "I thought we were here to drink."

Great fun on site.

Jing Tian stood next to Deng Chao and smiled cheerfully, which was very eye-catching.

Then enter the topic and open the task card.

Several people gathered around to see where the next mission would be.

Obtain clues by completing missions and unlock treasures at the end.

The program PD said: "The program team specially invited several agents."

"who is it?"

"Wow! Deng Ziqi!!"

Deng Ziqi came on stage with her own BGM, and Wang Baoyu's face was tangled together, holding a bottle of Ruiao cocktail in his hand, and he also sang along: "You exist deep in my mind, in my dreams, in my heart, in my heart." "In the song"

"Brother Bao'er, it's out of tune."

Jing Tian touched Wang Baoyu and said innocently with his big eyes, and everyone burst into laughter again.

Deng Ziqi greeted me calmly and generously: "Hello everyone."

"Welcome Zi Qi."

"Next, the second guest!"

Liu Shishi appeared on stage wearing a white shirt and a knee-length black skirt with long flowing hair, and a gentle and touching smile on her pretty face, which seemed to take everyone back to the campus of those years.

"The leaves are turning green!"

Chen Chichi was applauding desperately.

"Shi Shi looks really beautiful."

Deng Chao, Sha Yi and others also happily raised their hands to welcome him and sighed at the same time.

"Sword Rain" had just been released, and Liu Shishi was very popular. The scene immediately erupted in cheers that were louder than Deng Ziqi's.

"There is another guest."

"Are there any guests? Are there any beauties?"

Deng Chao interrupted the program PD to speak, and the expressions on the faces of the male hosts were also very expectant and excited.

The program PD was speechless: "The next guest is a man."

"Is that so?"

The look of anticipation on Deng Chao's face receded like a tide, and he joked: "I think it's enough to have Zi Qi and Shi Shi, so they can be grouped easily."

"The third guest is a very famous celebrity."

The program PD did not sell out the details and quickly announced the third heavyweight guest.

"Zhou Yutang!"

Zhou Yutang walked to the scene with wheat, a white shirt on the upper body, and black casual pants on the lower body, waving his hands.

"It turned out to be him."

Chen Chichi and Zhang Ruojun looked excited.

"Yu Tang!"

Wang Bao'er, Deng Chao, Sha Yi and others hugged each other excitedly, as if they had won a big prize in the lottery.

As soon as Zhou Yutang appeared on the stage, the roar of the scene was like a violent storm, which almost lifted the roof.

"Wow, uncle, Professor Zhou, my God!"

Chen Chichi's eyes widened in shock. She came up and held Zhou Yutang's hand tightly, refusing to let go. She was as excited as an ordinary person seeing a star.

Jing Tian and Liu Shishi smiled and clapped softly.

Deng Chao pulled Chen Chichi away and said with a serious face: "Everyone, please pay attention to your image and don't scare the guest Yu Tang. You are welcome."

But he himself hugged Zhou Yutang and refused to let go.

Sha Yi and others reacted, worked together to pull Deng Chao away, and asked: "Brother Chao, didn't you just say that having Zi Qi and Shi Shi is enough, why are you monopolizing Yu Tang now?"

"You are still young and don't understand."

Deng Chao looked like he had come from before: "Now that I have a good relationship with Yu Tang, if he has the opportunity to make money in the future, he can help me."

He ranks first among celebrities from across the Taiwan Strait and three places, earning hundreds of millions a year and topping the celebrity list.

Zhou Yutang is a well-known God of Wealth.

Sha Yi, Bao E and others also followed suit, begging for hugs, and the enthusiasm of the crowd directly overwhelmed Zhou Yutang.

On the other hand, Miss Jing Tian and Liu Shishi covered their mouths and smiled softly.

The on-site staff also had fun.

Zhou Yutang's topic is too strong.

Once he stops there, it will be the effect of the show.

Deng Chao's on-the-spot performance was also good.

This type of outdoor variety show does not have fixed lines. Sometimes the host needs a flash of inspiration to create a program effect.

The first night of recording the opening went relatively smoothly.

Zhou Yutang and the director team made a recording plan for the second day and returned to the hotel.

As soon as he opened the door, a warm and soft body rushed into his arms and took the initiative to hook his neck. Liu Shishi lightly pressed Zhou Yutang's lips:

"How many days will you stay in the magic city?"

"In two or three days, I'll leave after recording the show, and then go back to do the post-production of the movie."

A fragrant smell made Zhou Yutang's heart flutter. He hugged the blind sister's waist and patted her butt: "The number of shots in one episode of the show is limited. If you don't be more active, there won't be many shots."

"I don't know how to behave well. By the way, you brought Jingtian in, right?"

"Well, this girl has a deep background. I have some shares in Starlight Company, so she can be considered an artist under me."

"It looks pretty grand."

Liu Shishi's legs were very flexible and hung tightly on his waist. He didn't ask any questions, just bit his lip and said lazily: "Hold me to take a bath."

[Ellipsis = one thousand words]

strictly speaking.

Liu Shishi has a calm personality, does not have a strong desire to win, and does not like to compete with others.

Therefore, it is not suitable for variety shows.

It is really difficult for the blind sister to let her do the show effect.

But after all, she is a very popular actress, and it is good that she can entertain the audience.

Deng Chao, Sha Yi, and Chen Chichi are enough to be funny.

Liu Shishi also had his own little thoughts.

Usually he is in the Magic City, while Zhou Yutang is in the capital, one in the south and one in the north.

By recording the program at this time, we can naturally stay together for several days.

Besides, variety shows are much easier than filming.

the next day.

early morning.

On the square in the park.

The square dance corps of the aunts began to move out.

The men's running team has been divided into three teams: red, yellow and blue.

Zhou Yutang was in a team with Liu Shishi and Zhang Ruojun, Deng Chao, Li Cheng, and Jing Tian were in a team, and Deng Ziqi was left in a team with the others.

Some people may ask, it seems unfair that there are four people on Deng Ziqi's side.

But Chen Chichi is positioned as a game black hole in the show, so his number is probably equal to negative

When they were divided into groups, they had to give and go, which was very pitiful. In the end, Sha Yi accepted it and formed the "old and weak group". Wang Baorong showed off his muscles with confidence, saying that he would support him.

"You're not asking us to dance in the square, are you?"

Chen Chichi opened his mouth exaggeratedly, and Jing Tian suddenly chuckled.

"Tiantian, why are you laughing?"

Sha Yi asked curiously, deliberately giving Jingtian a shot.

"It's hard for me to imagine Brother Yu Tang dancing in the square."

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Liu Shishi laughed so hard that he held his stomach and squatted down.

"Is Shi Shi's smile so low?"

"But it's really funny."

Deng Chao, Chen Chichi and others seemed to also think of the scene of Zhou Yutang dancing and laughed along with them.

Zhou Yutang shook his head, looking helpless.

However, their smiles did not last long, as the aunts quickly took out their long-planned killer weapon.

Acupressure board track!

Not only is there an acupressure board track, but there are also obstacles on the track, which can only be passed by continuous vaulting. After running for a certain period, you have to jump rope on top.

They have to complete a series of rigorous tests barefoot within a limited time, and then the team with the shortest time wins.

"This... won't die, right?"

Jing Tian went up to try it on barefoot, his big eyes widened, and he murmured.

"You won't die, at most you will lose half your life."

Zhou Yutang raised his eyebrows and smiled, somewhat teasingly.

Jing Tian wanted to cry but had no tears.

It’s so exciting to play right up there.

This link was also set up by him after discussing with the directing team.

"Just standing up there is unbearable, but you have to run to the end?"

Sha Yi's expression changed, and he said to Zhou Yutang seriously: "Yutang, I suddenly remembered that my wife is about to give birth, and I have to go back quickly."

"Don't leave."

Zhou Yutang directly locked him tightly: "Ziqi, your captain wants to run, come and help."

"People will die."

Sha Yi was still begging and struggling.

Deng Ziqi, Chen Chichi and others couldn't help but immediately grabbed Sha Yi and refused to let him go.

After having fun for a while.

Start running soon.

It was the red team's turn to come first in the lottery. Zhang Ruojun immediately pushed Zhou Yutang out: "Brother Tang, give us a look."

"How about you come?"

"You are my brother, you come and you come."

"you sure?"

Zhou Yutang raised his eyebrows slightly.

Zhang Ruojun showed his signature husky smile: "It's up to you whether you are sure or not."

"come on!"

Liu Shishi and Jing Tian waved their fists in support.

Deng Chao quickly stopped Miss Jing Tian and said, "Tiantian, what are you doing? This is our opponent."

"ah?"

Jing Tian's innocent and cute look made everyone laugh again.

"Zhou Yutang, come on!"

Many fans gathered at the scene, cheering for Zhou Yutang.

Zhou Yutang didn't show any pretense. He moved a little and took the lead.

When standing on the acupressure board, his body swayed slightly, which caused a burst of exclamation from the crowd.

However, the expression on his face did not change at all. He took a few deep breaths and started running directly.

"hiss!"

Sha Yi took a breath of cold air, his whole face was tangled with eyebrows, and he said speechlessly: "Oh my god, doesn't he feel pain?"

Deng Chao also opened his mouth in shock: "It's over, it's over, we're defeated."

Liu Shishi clapped his hands happily and said with a smile: "It's so fast!"

Zhou Yutang successfully passed the acupressure board track, vault, and rope skipping.

Flowing clouds and flowing water.

All done in one go.

Only in the final super acupressure board stage did Zhou Yutang frown slightly, but he still successfully handed the stick to Zhang Ruojun.

Even the PD who followed the show was shocked.

They also tested it when setting up the program and the acupressure board was really painful.

I didn’t expect Zhou Yutang to be so powerful.

Deng Chao, Sha Yi and others had already been stunned and asked their companions if they were dreaming.

Liu Shishi and Jing Tian's beautiful eyes burst out with strange looks.

Especially Liu Shishi, while cheering, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, revealing a faint proud smile.

Only strong willpower can achieve this level.

After finishing the race, the crowd cheered.

Deng Chao sent Jing Tian over to ask why it went so smoothly. Only then did he see the calmness on Zhou Yutang's face disappear in an instant, and he squatted aside with his feet in his arms.

He is also a human being, how could he not feel pain?

Just now, I was focused on the task without any distractions. After it was over, my attention was distracted and the pain immediately broke out.

"Yu Tang's reaction arc seems a bit long."

Deng Chao, Sha Yi and others were happy, but they also secretly admired him.

Jing Tian and Liu Shishi immediately came over to help massage the soles of their feet with concern: "Yu Tang, are you okay?"

"It's okay, it's up to Ruojun."

"Don't worry, I'm here, there will be no surprises."

Zhang Ruojun patted his chest in assurance, and with a confident smile, he stood on the acupressure board track with a confident smile.

result.

A slightly fat girl, who was estimated to be at least 250 pounds, stood in front of him, wearing a T-shirt with "Run, take me there" printed on it, covering her mouth shyly:

"Zhang Ruojun, I am your fan, and I particularly like your role as Ren Yifan."

"Hello"

The smile on Zhang Ruojun's face froze instantly, and his whole person was messy in the wind

He whispered to the program PD who was following him: "Can I ask Zhou Yutang to help me?"

"Of course not."

The program PD ruthlessly rejected his unreasonable request.

Weeping without tears, Zhang Ruojun set off with the overly plump girl on his back. Zhang Ruojun seemed to be carrying a mountain on his back. His thin body was trembling, and every step he took was extremely difficult.

"Come on, Ruojun."

Liu Shishi shouted "Come on", but he couldn't help laughing and glanced at Zhou Yutang quickly.

I really don’t know how he came up with the show.

This is too funny.

"Look at him, he's about to fall."

Deng Chao and Jing Tian had already sat down on the ground laughing.

Chen Chichi was even more exaggerated and rolled on the ground with joy.

After finally walking this section of the road, Zhang Ruojun seemed to have lost all his strength. He jumped high several times before biting the snack, which was considered a completion of the task.

The next Liu Shishi was quite bright.

Liu Shishi has relatively developed motor nerves and has practiced dancing.

She easily passed the first moving circle that tested her body's flexibility, and then showed off her graceful figure in the hurdles.

Stretch your long legs.

He passed the obstacle almost in one go.

But the result was a failure, because Zhang Ruojun was confused for a long time at the beginning, and even negotiated terms with the program team's PD, which wasted too much time.

Then Deng Chao of the Yellow Team also failed, but not far from the limited time.

On the contrary, the next four-person team formed a lot of jokes, and Deng Ziqi was responsible for singing and cheering. Wang Baoyu was in good health and knew kung fu, but he could not lead the "old and weak combination" of Sha Yi and Chen Chichi.

There was constant laughter.

Several main members were also fully involved. In the end, Zhang Ruojun withstood the pressure, and Zhou Yutang's team won and got the first clue.

This program has a total of four links.

The first link was acupressure board, and then a sudden surprise came during lunch, which took everyone directly to the second link:

Pool game bouncer.

The guests in the group were caught sitting on an ejection chair by the swimming pool. The third person in the group was responsible for recreating the order of the burrito ingredients they had eaten. If the order was wrong, the people behind would be ejected into the swimming pool by the ejection chair.

This is a specially customized ejection chair, and its safety has been confirmed. However, it is not close to the swimming pool, and the swimming pool is also very deep. The impact is great, and the makeup will definitely fall off if it falls.

Some female guests who are equipped with technology will feel frightened.

But Da Tiantian and Liu Shishi are both natural beauties, and Deng Ziqi does not rely on her looks to make a living.

In the end, Deng Ziqi’s team won.

The first day of filming was bumpy, but overall it went smoothly.

After finishing the filming, Zhou Yutang convened a summary meeting with the entire program staff.

"The director team tells us their thoughts."

"It feels like there are a lot of laughs, and the material should be enough for more than an hour."

Chief Director Cen Junyi sounded a little excited: "Mr. Zhou, would you like to consider being a regular guest on the show? I feel that your sense of variety shows is very good, and it is very topical. The ratings will definitely explode."

Zhou Yutang waved his hand: "I'll forget it."

He now has more than one "Running Man" in his career base. It's okay to come here occasionally to relax and relax, but he really doesn't have time to be a permanent guest.

After all, the company's film and television projects also take a lot of time, and time management is also required.

Zhang Yue from the writing team also said: "Mr. Zhou, according to this progress, we will be able to record the entire program directly tomorrow and then hand it over to the logistics department for editing."

"The cooperation today is still not tacit enough."

Zhou Yutang nodded slightly: "Ask several filming directors to have in-depth conversations with the artists they are cooperating with about the topics and events that will appear in the program content, mainly the fixed hosts, to deepen the tacit understanding."

If the potential of the program is further explored, the interaction between celebrities and the program PD is the communication between celebrities and ordinary people. The audience will have a sense of involvement and can create many program effects.

The main thing is to enhance the tacit understanding between each other. Many program effects can only be stimulated by knowing enough about each other.

"Okay, Mr. Zhou, where are the guests for this issue?"

"Go and communicate with Deng Ziqi."

"Where's Liu Shishi?"

"Liu Shishi, let me talk."

Liu Shishi was lying in Zhou Yutang's arms, his hair falling on his snow-white shoulders.

She leaned her head closer and took the initiative to kiss him on the mouth.

At this moment, Zhou Yutang's phone rang. He glanced at the caller number and made a "shh" gesture to her.

Baldy Xu couldn't hide the joy in his voice: "Mr. Zhou, I have good news for you."

Zhou Yutang hugged Liu Shishi and chuckled: "Has the copyright been negotiated?"

"That's right."

Bald Xu said in an excited tone: "I told you that the movie would be withdrawn. The future was not very clear, so they hesitated. After a long time, they agreed to buy out the copyright, but the asking price was 1.8 million, which is a bit high. Do you think it's good, Mr. Zhou?"

"Contact the company's legal department to negotiate the contract."

Zhou Yutang chuckled and said: "Thank you for your hard work this time. The movie schedule has been set and it will be released during the Chinese New Year. We will have a good time then."

"Wherever it goes, I should do it."

Hearing that Zhou Yutang didn't care about the copyright buyout fee, Baldy Xu breathed a sigh of relief and secretly thought that his situation was too small.

Just less than two million.

Zhou Yutang didn't take it to heart at all.

"Why are Baldy Xu looking for you so late?"

"Maybe he wanted to take me to some unhealthy place."

Liu Shishi asked curiously, Zhou Yutang held Liu Shishi's pretty and lovely face.

The cheeks, which are full of collagen, are soft and elastic, and are more comfortable to touch than a Rua cat.

Being teased like this, Liu Shishi bit Zhou Yutang's shoulder rudely, leaving a tooth mark in demonstration.

"You're smiling like this, did you find money?"

Zhou Yutang, who had made a lot of money, was in a good mood. He kissed Liu Shishi on the face and said, "I did find money."

The copyright of the "囧" series has been obtained.

How is this different from finding money?
