When Huo Yaowen went to Taiwan to attend Gulong's wedding, Phoenix TV also officially launched the first episode of "Millionaire" at 6 o'clock in the evening.

"Welcome all the viewers and friends in front of the TV and in the scene to watch the first episode of our Phoenix TV special program "Millionaire". Since the temporary program of "Millionaire" was broadcast on Phoenix Channel on April 13, more than a large number of viewers and friends have come to sign up in just ten days.

Because the number of applicants is too much, serious delays and affect the normal operation of the station, so I make a special note here that the contestants who register in the future only need to mail to the TV station, as for the criteria for selection, at the end of the program, I will ask you a question, you only need to answer the correct question in the letter, and fill in the identity certificate and phone number, and there will be a reply from our staff later. ”

After Dong Bi finished this boring opening remarks, he turned around and walked to the center of the stage, and at this time, the camera also took advantage of the situation to shoot the entire scene, more than hundreds of live audiences, as well as two bank security personnel with shotguns not far away, and the silver-white boxes connected by handcuffs in their hands.

As for what's in the box?

The grand prize, of course, is a million in cash!

Dong Bi sat in his own position, smiling at the camera that advanced and smiled: "Not much to say, let's invite the first contestant to the stage, we look forward to him as the first contestant of this show, he can get a very good start, as for whether he can take away one million yuan in cash, it depends on whether he can answer fifteen questions correctly!"

Soon, a player slowly walked out of a pitch-black arch under the arrangement of the staff, and the light hit him for a while.

The feeling of the audience's attention made the contestants very nervous, Dong Bi saw that his body was trembling a little, and he also said with a smile: "Don't be nervous, although I know that there are so many viewers and friends in front of the TV, there is an illusion that I wanted to cheat in the exam when I was a child, but the examiner stared at it very hard." ”

"Hahaha......"

Suddenly, the audience was amused by Dong Bi's sudden words.

A burst of laughter also relieved the nervousness of the players.

"Introduce yourself. ”

"Hello everyone, my name is Qian Jiaxiang. ”

Dong Bi pretended to ask casually, "Mr. Qian, is it inconvenient to reveal your profession?"

"Yes, I'm an auto mechanic. Qian Jiaxiang nodded and said his profession directly.

Dong Bi couldn't help patting his chest and breathed a sigh of relief, when the audience at the scene and in front of the TV was very curious about what he was doing, they only heard him smile and said: "Then I'm relieved, although I really want to wish Mr. Qian that you can take one million, but the first contestant will take one million, I'm afraid that the program producer and the leaders of the station will kill me!"

"Haha, this Dong Bi is so interesting, I always thought he was fun to report Marseille, but I didn't expect it to be so interesting to host the show. ”

"The leader of the station will kill me?! Hahaha, Dong Bi is so funny!"

"So, is it really possible that a player will take a million?"

"What else? You think it's fake!"

"Damn, I always thought it was just a gimmick, but I didn't expect it to be possible, no, I'll sign up tomorrow, anyway, I'm also a junior high school teacher!"

Immediately, the audience burst into laughter, and even in front of the TV, there was a loud laugh of "goose goose goose" from every house.

Dong Bi saw that the atmosphere at the scene was good, and he thought that the effect would be very good after the broadcast, so he couldn't help but praise his wit, glanced at the young man in front of him, and said with a smile: "Okay, Mr. Qian, time is running out, let's start answering the questions, there are three tips in front of you, which are on-site help, off-site help, and removing two wrong answers." ”

"I know. Qian Jiaxiang responded, he already knew the rules.

"Okay, listen to the first question ......"

……

Time passed little by little, and five contestants came up one after another in the show, except for the second one who answered the fifth question correctly, lost in the sixth question, and took away more than 1,000 yuan, almost the rest of the contestants returned empty-handed.

Although the odds of five to one are very small, and the prize money is only a few hundred yuan, this still makes the audience in front of the TV very happy, and many people beat their chests and shout, eager to go on the stage to answer the questions in person!

No other, because these topics are too easy!

For example, the sixth question of the second contestant, "Excuse me, the peach blossom nunnery in the peach blossom dock of the famous poet Tang Yin in the Ming Dynasty, the peach blossom fairy in the peach blossom nunnery...... What is the name of this poem?A: Peach Blossom Temple, B Peach Blossom Fairy, C Peach Blossom Poem, D Peach Blossom Dock. ”

This option is very confusing, because there are peach blossom hermitage and peach blossom dock in the poem, and there are also peach blossom fairies, so the player is very entangled, because although he knows the poem, he really doesn't remember what the name is, so he has to ask for help in the field, but I don't know if the audience really doesn't know, or it is deliberate, and directly let the player choose A.

was helplessly eliminated.

Someone answered this kind of simple question incorrectly, and the audience in front of the TV no longer doubted the authenticity of the program, but instead turned into a god, how could all the contestants be so stupid, all of them were pig brains?

With the heartache of going door to door, the last contestant named Wei Jiale took the stage.

The first few questions, he answered them correctly, to the five questions, used a field to ask for help, this time the audience answered correctly, and soon came all the way to the tenth question, he also used up almost all the tips, answer this question correctly, then it is not far from millions, and at the same time can get at least 30,000 yuan in cash and a set of household appliances worth 50,000 yuan.

"I'll choose C!" Wei Jiale thought for a moment and said.

Dong Bi glanced at the correct answer in his hand, and said expressionlessly: "Are you sure to choose C? If you don't answer the question, you can take away 15,000 yuan for the ninth question, and you must know that if you answer incorrectly, you can only get 1,500 yuan for the fifth question." ”

The price difference of ten times made Wei Jiale fall into a tangle, whether to step back and choose 15,000, or give it a fight of 30,000, or 1,05?

The audience in front of the TV is also very entangled, many people think that it is enough to take 15,000 yuan, after all, the money is given for free, but some people think that it is given for free anyway, it is better to give it a fight, and if you win, it is 30,000 yuan, or an electrical appliance worth 50,000 yuan!

This kind of bonus design rules make the players in a dilemma for a while, which is wonderful.

Wei Jiale glanced at the three empty bags in front of him, gritted his teeth and said, "I'm sure to choose C." ”

"Okay, then congratulations, you got it right!" Dong Bi said with a smile: "Do you want to continue the next round of answers?"

"A. ”

has passed the insurance line of the tenth question, Wei Jiale is naturally willing to continue to answer the question.

It's just a pity that although the difficulty of the eleventh question is not particularly high, it is better than the tricky question, Wei Jiale doesn't know which one is the correct answer, and he blinds one randomly.

"It's a pity, Ah Le, you answered incorrectly, you are only five questions away from the million-dollar prize. Dong Bi looked regretful, but turned his head and said: "But congratulations here, you have successfully arrived at the second insurance line, now do you choose 30,000 yuan in cash to leave the scene, or choose a set of electrical equipment worth 50,000 yuan?"

"I choose 50,000 yuan for electrical appliances!" Wei Jiale thought about it, and finally he chose a reward of 50,000 yuan.

When the last contestant answered the question and successfully took away the electrical appliances worth 50,000 yuan, Dong Bi smiled and said to the camera: "It's a pity that no contestant took away a prize of one million today, but it doesn't matter, we will meet again in the next issue, who is the real millionaire, we will wait and see!"

……

If the previous temporary program was just an introduction, then the first episode of "Millionaire" became a ignition point, which suddenly detonated the passion of the whole Hong Kong people, no one wants to get rich overnight, no one doesn't want to become a millionaire!

On the first day, more than 5,000 people wrote to Phoenix Terrace to seek registration qualifications, and many people still ran to Phoenix Terrace to register according to the old method.

In less than two days, the number of applicants reached 30,000, covering almost all walks of life, men, women and children.

The registration of 30,000 people, if it is still according to one issue a week, six players in one phase, the ghost knows how many years later.

Many viewers called for the TV station to change to two issues a week, or three times a week, and some people said that one issue a day is the best!

In the face of the suggestions of a large number of viewers, He Zuozhi also took the opportunity to change "Millionaire" from a weekly broadcast to a daily broadcast, and at the same time increased the advertising cost of that period.

When Huo Yaowen came back from Taiwan, the fourth episode of "Millionaire" had already aired, although it is not clear what the specific ratings were, but it is enough to see from the fact that people are all talking about this "Millionaire" on the streets and alleys, and the ratings are definitely not low.

The most interesting thing is that in order to take advantage of the popularity of "Millionaire", many Hong Kong tabloids and magazines have temporarily opened a special column, imitating "Millionaire", and will give examples of many, many different questions every day, in the name of giving readers to practice their hands and read more questions.

Not to mention, as soon as you do this, sales have suddenly increased dramatically!

Because the title of "Millionaire" is not those particularly formulaic topics in textbooks, it can almost be described as varied, and ordinary people really can't find so many topics to watch and practice by themselves.

When he returned to the TV station and listened to He Zuozhi's report on such an interesting news, Huo Yaowen grinned and muttered to himself: This is really reading more books and newspapers, eating less snacks and sleeping more.

Huo Yaowen said: "Let them toss, you must control the matter of the topic, I don't want the topic to leak!"

"Don't worry, chairman, since the first issue, I have made hundreds of question cards for Dong Bi to choose randomly in the show. He Zuozhi naturally knew that the leakage of the questions was terrible, so he made a box early in the morning, and before the contestants came to the stage, Dong Bi drew fifteen questions.

"Well, that's for the best. Huo Yaowen nodded, He Zuozhi's method is good, although it is simple, but it is very effective.

In the past few days, with the popularity of the show, at 6 o'clock in the evening, almost every household is watching Phoenix TV's "Millionaire", no matter how Li TV and TVB make changes, it is difficult to resist the temptation of getting rich overnight.

When Hong Kong was still caught in the "millionaire" craze, the Governor's Palace quietly blocked the road near Kai Tak Airport and dispatched a large number of police to maintain law and order at the scene, for the arrival of the Queen tomorrow.
