Qiqu.com is a video website in Huaxia and an Internet giant that can compete with Haiyan Video. Qiqu.com is also a group company, which is also involved in the entertainment business and has self-made programs, but compared with Haiyan Video, Xiao Yao's cooperation with Qiqu.com is not much.

Speaking of the relationship between Xiao Yao and Qiqu.com, in fact, Xiao Yao's first contact with Qiqu.com didn't make Qiqu.com feel very happy.

When Xiao Yao participated in Fashion Week in New York, he took his mobile phone to do a live broadcast on the live broadcast platform, and as a result, it took a lot of effort to get the right to report on Qiqu.com, and it took a lot of money to invite star artists to interview reporters The number of online views and subsequent clicks on the live video of Fashion Week was relatively bleak, and finally Qiqu.com still invited Wang Yuan to be a middleman to call Xiao Yao, Xiao Yao listened to Wang Yuan's words, and later stopped the live broadcast of Fashion Week, and their project was not reduced to chicken ribs.

That incident, no matter whether Xiao Yao gave face to Wang Yuan or to Qiqu.com, after all, they stopped the live broadcast of Fashion Week in the future, so that their project was successful in the end, so even if the first contact between Qiqu.com and Xiao Yao was not very pleasant, but Qiqu.com didn't have any opinions on Xiao Yao, but from that incident, he saw Xiao Yao's huge ability and paid more attention to it.

Overall, Xiao Yao's relationship with Qiqu.com is still good. Xiao Yao's participation in the performance and the online broadcast rights of the film and television works produced by the young man film and television company during the theater release and TV station broadcast have also been sold to Qiqu.com, and they have also been launched on Qiqu.com. It's just that compared with those film and television works, Xiao Yao himself appears in the self-made programs of Qiqu.com much less.

Over the years, Qiqu.com has also sent many invitations to Xiao Yao for self-made variety shows. It's not that Xiao Yao can't watch online variety shows, but he rarely goes to the show purely for exposure. Either the show is very interesting and can attract Xiao Yao's interest, such as "Singer" and "Sound Immersion", or during the promotion of the work, and those shows will at least not be too boring, or Xiao Yao will not feel too embarrassed.

Over the years, Xiao Yao has also participated in some programs on Qiqu.com, but due to time and the content of the program itself, compared with Haiyan Video, Xiao Yao has participated in many fewer programs on Qiqu.com.

If you want to say that Xiao Yao's performance in the online variety show has attracted the most attention over the years, it should be regarded as his performance in Haiyan Video's "Creation 101" the year before last.

Before this show, it was Qiqu.com that first made a program of "Idol Trainee". Yan Junlin, whom Xiao Yao met before in "Wild Kitchen", debuted from that show. These two shows are actually variety shows imported from South Korea, and they both select and train idol groups, but Qiqu.com's "Idol Trainee" is a men's group, while Haiyan Video's "Creation 101" is a women's group.

When I first made this show, Qiqu.com also wanted to invite Xiao Yao to be a mentor for the trainees. After all, in that show, two members of the debut girl group in their early twenties were hired by the program team to be dance teachers, and Xiao Yao, a person who has written songs and choreographed dances for the Korean trending girl group, is definitely qualified, whether it is a dance teacher or a vocal music teacher.

In the end, Xiao Yao refused on the grounds that there was no schedule. Of course, later Qiqu.com learned that Xiao Yao also rejected Haiyan Video's "Creation 101" mentor invitation for the same reason. But what they also know is that Xiao Yao once spent a week in that show to be a star senior at a stage, which not only made him popular on the Internet, but also made the show full of topics during that time.

Now Qiqu.com is mainly doing an online variety show called "The Character of Actors", and its model is a bit similar to "Idol Trainee" and "Creation 101", which are all for domestic entertainment companies to recommend a large group of trainees or newcomers, and after passing the primary selection, they are called to the program for centralized selection and training, and then eliminated through some assessments, and the final winner is selected.

However, unlike those two programs, the students of those two programs are trainees of idol groups, and they are tested for stage performances of singing and dancing, and the last students who stay behind make their debut in groups, while the students of this program are newcomer actors from various companies, and they are tested for acting, and those who stay in the end can get the opportunity to appear in film and television dramas.

In addition, in response to several points complained by the audience in the show the year before last, plus the difference between the actors and idol groups, the instructors in this show have also undergone some changes. These instructors are not necessarily stars in the circle, but they are either in-service teachers from well-known film and television schools, or industry leaders who have won awards or achieved positive achievements at home or abroad, and their professionalism is beyond doubt.

The teachers are not necessarily stars, even if they are stars, they are also old actors, and the traffic is relatively limited, and those students are all newcomer actors, and their popularity is also limited. For the sake of the program's ratings and traffic, the recruiter roles of the promoter and producer in this program are similar to those in the occasional program, which are played by a well-known host and two well-known actors, who are also responsible for communicating with the students in the program, performing reviews and controlling the program process. It is worth mentioning that the two star actors in the recruiter are not very old, and they are not teachers in the show, but are called seniors.

The recording cycle of this show is also three months. Let's not talk about whether a famous star like Xiao Yao is suitable and qualified to become an instructor with the teachers of those film and television schools, that is, he is a star senior among the recruiters who are very suitable for him, Xiao Yao can't spend three months on this show, even if these three months don't need to be with those students every day, and he has to record every day.

Therefore, after a little contact between the program team and Xiao Yao's studio, it is impossible for Xiao Yao to be a resident guest of this show, but considering Xiao Yao's performance in "Creation 101" the year before last, even if it only appears in one of the episodes, it will also play a huge role in promoting the ratings and topicality of the program team.

Xiao Yao has participated in the recording of a lot of shows this month, basically to promote the movie. However, these programs are either life or music, Xiao Yao either participates in the show as a star, or participates in the show as a singer and music creator. Since it is a promotional movie, Xiao Yao also wants to participate in a program as a director or actor for promotion.

There are not many programs about acting broadcast during this time, and from the topicality of the program, recording time and broadcast time, the content of the program, the publicity effect and other aspects, "The Character of the Actor" is the only suitable one.

The program team wanted to invite Xiao Yao, and Xiao Yao wanted to participate in the show, and the two sides naturally hit it off.

Xiao Yao only participated in the recording of one episode, but it was not the first episode.

This show has been recorded since years ago.

The rookie actor trainees who initially entered the show were sixty in total. The first is the initial ranking appearance, and the recruitment team is assessed and graded. After studying for a period of time, the program team conducted the first stage of assessment, re-classification, and then the second assessment. In the second assessment, students were not only reclassified according to their grades, but also eliminated a group of students.

Now the program has reached the third stage of the assessment period. In the previous second assessment, twenty-four people were eliminated, and only thirty-six students were left in the original sixty-person student team, which was the same as the number of students Xiao Yao had when he participated in "Creation 101" the year before last.

Each stage of the assessment is composed of three parts: the big test, the small test and the additional test. The small assessment and additional test are generally made and scored by the teacher of the program group, and the big assessment generally involves ordinary audiences. The final ranking and elimination list of each stage are calculated according to the total score of the students in the program.

The third stage of the assessment is stage performances, and 36 people need to be divided into six groups to complete the performance of six stage plays. There is a live audience during the stage performance, and the audience and three recruiters with special scores watch and vote on the spot, and finally the comprehensive score is ranked. According to the different rankings, the six groups of students will also receive additional points with different scores, which will be included in their total score at this stage.

Now that the show is in the third stage, Xiao Yao is now here to participate in this show, and what he wants to do in the show is related to the big assessment at this stage. One of the six stage plays for the students to choose from was written by Xiao Yao, and Xiao Yao himself served as the stage director and instructor for the group of students who selected the script he provided.

Xiao Yao has already completed this part of providing the script. A stage play is only about ten minutes in total, and the script is not very long, Xiao Yao has already written it and sent it to the program team, and the program team has also approved it. He only needs to wait until the stage play starts and go to the filming location to participate in the recording of the show.

The third phase of the program lasted more than a week, but this more than a week was not all used to prepare for the stage play, and the students usually had basic courses and other tasks.

In the third stage of the assessment, the students got the script during the day the day before, and they had to perform on stage the next night, and the preparation time in the middle was less than 48 hours. This also means that Xiao Yao's participation in the recording time of this show will not exceed forty-eight hours, which is far easier than the previous week of participating in "Creation 101".

The recording location of this online variety show on Qiqu.com is in Shencheng, although it is a photography base located in the suburbs of Shencheng, but after all, it is still in Shencheng, and it is very convenient for Xiao Yao to go over.

According to the script process given to Xiao Yao by the original program team, Xiao Yao needed to come to the filming location to meet with his group of students on the 25th, that is, the afternoon when the students selected the script. However, because Li Shiyu's song had been recorded the day before, there was nothing to do, and the filming location was originally in Shencheng, so Xiao Yao drove to the filming base in advance that morning.

"Hey, Mr. Ke, I'm Xiao Yao!" Coming to the door of the shooting base, Xiao Yao dialed Ke Jun's phone, "I'm now at the door of the shooting base!"

The most famous in this show are the three recruiters. Among them, the well-known host is Ke Jun of Shonan Satellite TV, and the other two are well-known young actors. Although Xiao Yao is an actor and singer, not a host, among the three recruiters, Xiao Yao is the most familiar with Ke Jun.

"What? You're here now?" Ke Jun said with some surprise, "I remember that the director team told me that you would only come in the afternoon!"

"Yes, the program team informed me that I would arrive in the afternoon. Xiao Yao smiled, "But the place where I live is quite far from here, and there is always a traffic jam in Shencheng, so I was afraid of a traffic jam when I came out in the afternoon, so I drove out in advance." ”

"Afraid of traffic jams, then you don't need to advance so much, right?" Ke Jun smiled bitterly, "It's only morning!"

"The main Duo'er has returned to Yanjing, and I have nothing to do in the morning, I'm idle!" Xiao Yao smiled, "That's the case, I'm early, I'm afraid that going in like this will affect your normal filming process, so I want to trouble you to discuss with the program team first to see if I can arrange for me to go in and record in advance." It doesn't matter if it's not easy to arrange, I drive around the neighborhood by myself, and it's easy to find a place to pass the time. ”

"If you want to enter the filming in advance, you should call the director of the program team and discuss with the program team, why do you still want to find me?" Ke Jun smiled, "Is my power greater than that of the director?"

"No," Xiao Yao said with a smile, "I'm afraid that if I call the director, the director will be under pressure, and if it doesn't work, I will be let enter the scene in advance, which will affect your shooting." Isn't this familiar with you? I just contacted you, please make it clear to the director, no, no, no, no, I'll find a place to play nearby, and come back in the afternoon!"

"Okay, then I'll discuss it with the director and I'll call you back later!" Ke Jun agreed.

"Hmm!" Xiao Yao agreed, hung up the phone, and didn't get out of the car, just sat in the car and waited for Ke Jun's reply.

After a while, Xiao Yao's mobile phone rang. Xiao Yao picked it up and took a look, and sure enough, it was Ke Jun calling.

"Teacher Ke!" Xiao Yao picked up the phone with a smile.

"Xiao Yao, I told the director. Ke Jun said directly, "In the morning, it was mainly me and Wenbo and Qiuyue who announced the exam questions of the big assessment to the students, and recorded them in the studio, so it is not convenient for you to show up." If you come in, you probably won't have many shots to talk about, and we won't be able to accompany you. However, in the afternoon, the students auditioned for their own actors, so you can watch it in the observation room with us, or you can comment on it together. I think it's okay, there are footage and material, and it's a lot earlier than you originally scheduled, so you don't have to wait too long outside. Why don't you find a place to play by yourself in the morning, and then come in after lunch? The audition starts at two o'clock, and we can talk to you for a while before. ”

According to the original script, Xiao Yao should have been around half past five in the afternoon, when the students had selected the script and selected their team members through auditions, and after they were divided into groups, Xiao Yao showed up to meet the actors of his group. Now that his recording time has been advanced from half past five in the afternoon to after lunch, it should be that the program team has taken care of Xiao Yao, who arrived early, as much as possible.

"Observation room?" Xiao Yao didn't immediately accept such an arrangement, but still asked tentatively, "The observation room can see the situation in the studio, right? When you announced the assessment questions to them in the studio this morning, can I go to the observation room to watch? I don't need someone to accompany me, so I just sit there and take this opportunity to observe those students in advance, which should also be quite interesting." ”

"Would you like to sit alone in the observation room?" Ke Jun asked with a confirmed look.

"Yes!" Xiao Yao said, "And the program team doesn't shoot me, or I am willing not to broadcast my footage!"

There was a slight pause, and I didn't know if the director was next to Ke Jun, Ke Jun asked the director's opinion. After a few seconds, I heard Ke Jun's voice come out of the receiver of the mobile phone again: "Then you come in! Studio No. 5, I'll pick you up at the door now!"
