1248 Restless chickens and dogs
Lena-Krabbe stood anxiously at the elevator door, her mood bubbling like boiling water, her whole body was in a state of exploding hair at any time, and her footsteps couldn't help but exchange in place, as if she had encountered three emergencies.
The thought paused here, and the urge to go to the bathroom came to me, but this was clearly not the best time to leave the post.
Damn it!
Choosing to work in a TV station, dealing with accidents and crises is daily life, and they have to deal with all kinds of emergencies all the time, not only current news programs, but also the recording of talk shows -
Strictly speaking, in Lena's opinion, the unexpected situation of these top superstars is far more frequent and tricky, and every time it happens, they have to be careful to deal with it. There is no way, the good guys are played by the host and producer, and the bad guys are played by their little minions.
As planned, today is the first recording of the new season of the "Norton Show."
The first scene is the crew of "Iron Man 3", the second is the crew of "Fast and Thrill/Emotional 6", and the third scene is the crew of "Superman: Man of Steel".
After a long break, the whole program team was in an extremely busy and nervous state, but last night, at eleven o'clock in the middle of the night, the accident still happened.
For the past six hours, the program team has been deliberating and discussing, because BBC TV executives have decided to open the new season with an interview with Lan Li, replacing the original "Iron Man 3" crew, which also means that they have to rewrite the plan and program, and Graham Norton and the writing team have to rethink the jokes and topics.
More importantly, they have to rearrange the guests of the show, who should be invited to appear in the show with Lan Li, and whose schedule can match and match the level?
Another point, how should the recording time of the program be arranged?
Robert Downey Jr. of "Iron Man 3", Vin Diesel of "Fast and Thrill/Love 6", and Russell Crowe of "Superman: Man of Steel", these are all hard bones, and the recording schedule is temporarily adjusted at the last moment, and it is a headache for anyone to face it, and it needs to be discussed and discussed.
Unexpected situations are always unexpected, but the whole program team is still jubilant and excited, this is the Blue Gift! The famous Blue Gift Hall! Moreover, this is the first time that the Blue Gift has appeared on the British TV station!
Everyone was very motivated. Three shots of espresso are like chicken blood, and they start spinning.
At eleven o'clock in the middle of the night, the matter at hand was not yet dealt with, and then accidents appeared one after another.
First, the crew of "Iron Man 3" said that Gwyneth Paltrow had vomiting and was suspected of food poisoning, and now he is going to the hospital for examination, and they may have to adjust the recording time of the show.
For the "Norton Show" program team, this is naturally an undesirable situation, and it is just enough to arrange the recording schedule of Lan Li's program, but the accident is not over yet. To be precise, this is just the beginning.
Robert Downey Jr. wanted to be able to record the evening show instead of the afternoon show because he still had "objections" to Graham Rous's interview questions and needed further review and judgment, and then Gwyneth was sure that it was okay but asked with great fanfare to postpone the recording to the next day, but Robert Downey Jr. arranged another schedule the next day, and there was a rift within the crew.
Subsequently, the crew of "Fast & Furious 6" asked for the interview questions to be rescheduled, and the sections about Dwayne Johnson and Jason Statham were deleted in large numbers because "Mr. Diesel still has a lot of personal information to share", a request that was rejected by the program team, and then Diesel's agent said that if so, they would refuse to record the show.
Immediately afterwards, the crew of "Superman: Man of Steel" called over and was furious, making the program team confused and unclear.
After hanging up the phone, she asked carefully, and then she realized that the assistant in charge of arranging the itinerary was too anxious, she thought that the program team had already discussed it - in fact, it was not, so she informed the crew of "Superman: Man of Steel" against time, saying that their recording schedule was advanced to the first show in the morning.
Russell Crowe and Kevin Costner were both furious and expressed their strong displeasure with the schedule to record the first show at 8 a.m.
Before the chaos had time to clear its mind, waves of accidents came again.
On the one hand, Robert made a request that they have to record the afternoon show – not the evening – or else refuse to record it and postpone it until the following week. Although they didn't say it explicitly, they all knew that Robert expressed his dissatisfaction with Gwyneth with such a move: he stayed in the hospital despite his health problems, ready to use it to hype up the news.
At the same time, Robert replied to the question of the topic list in the form of an email, deleting all the jokes about the "big name rumors" and "The Comeback", which also provoked the anger of Graham, who dropped the script on the spot, believing that such a show might as well not be recorded.
On the other hand, Diesel insisted that the interview questions must be revised, and even did not hesitate to put pressure on the crew to postpone the recording time, postponing the original recording schedule until the evening, because they had to leave enough time to discuss the interview questions slowly, otherwise Diesel would not enter the studio.
Dawn called to confirm the recording time, and after receiving an ambiguous reply, they became suspicious, and although they hung up for the time being, they planted a time bomb.
An unexpected appearance, like dominoes, triggered a chain effect, not to mention, this time all the accidents appeared collectively, even the "Norton Show" program team was already anxious, and the problems in their hands have not been solved, and other problems are actually igniting everywhere.
That's when Graham Norton stepped up.
Graham is not only the host of the show, but also the writer and producer, and at the critical moment, he shows his decisive side, "Now that the problem has arisen, let's add fuel to the fire and make this chaos more violent." These were his exact words.
The first recording, Lan Li as a guest of special program.
The second recording, "Superman: Man of Steel" crew.
The third recording, the crew of "Iron Man 3".
The next day, the first recording, the crew of "Fast and Exciting / Emotional 6".
The entire itinerary was clearly laid out and all personal requests were answered accurately.
Regarding Russell and Kevin, the program team officially apologized, and there was a deviation in the itinerary, which caused them trouble, which was obviously a mistake by the program team.
Regarding Robert, the long-standing topic of "comeback" can be removed, but "big-name rumors" must be mentioned, there is no room for discounts.
As for Gwyneth, the recording time has been adjusted to the evening, and if she can participate, then it is better, if not, although it is a pity, she can still stay in the hospital to recuperate, and it does not matter if she is absent from the show.
As for Diesel, the postponement of the recording by one day is a good name: leave enough time to discuss the scope and content of the topic slowly.
In other words, it is the crew of "Fast and Thrill/Emotion" that really hurts the nerves, Graham still has a scale in his heart, and he still has a sense of proportion in the big moves. All decisions are made vigorously, drastically, and neatly.
Under Graham's urging, the entire program team was running quickly, but before officially notifying all the crews, Graham himself called Lan Li in person to apologize and inquire.
On the one hand, the time was too tight, and the choice of the first recording program tomorrow also meant that the group of Lanli could not review the content of the conversation and related topics in advance, and it was very likely that there would be a sensitive/emotional part; on the other hand, it was announced at midnight that it was necessary to enter the studio at 8 o'clock this morning to record, which was not only rushed, but also panicked.
originally thought that this would be an extremely difficult thing, so Graham took it personally.
But unexpectedly, Lan Li didn't have any difficulties, nodded happily and agreed, the only request was added by the manager Roy Lockley, before the official recording, they hoped to be able to browse the program outline in advance to ensure that Lan Li could know it in his heart.
Such a request could not even be called a "request", Graham was overjoyed, simply nodded and agreed, and then began to inform the other crew, showing a rare tough posture.
The crew of "Iron Man 3" accepted it, the crew of "Superman: Man of Steel" accepted, and the crew of "Fast & Thrill 6" took a reserved attitude.
The whole night was restless and chaotic, but such inside information, ordinary viewers would not understand it at all, hidden behind the laughter, not only the game of interests of all parties, but also the competition of big names of all parties, for the program team, it was simply a complete disaster.
Fortunately, at 4:30 a.m., all the chaos was sorted out and brought under control for the time being, and things finally got back on track.
Just when everyone had settled the matter, the crew of "Fast and Furious 6" called and said that they were willing to cooperate with the arrangement of "Norman Show", Diesel opened up all possibilities and would not delete all topics, the only requirement was that they must participate in the recording of the first scene.
"Fan is now up and ready to make. "These are the exact words of Christian Wagner, Diesel's agent.
It was Lena who was in charge of answering the phone, she hadn't slept all night, her emotions were already on the verge of a flashpoint, and she rolled her eyes widely, who was such a straightforward lie used to deceive? Diesel's big bald head, it didn't take much time to groom at all, and there was no need to get up an hour earlier.
At first, Lena patiently replied, but Christian was impatient, "I heard that the original time of the first scene was scheduled with different recording guests, which is unfair to us. We have already discussed a month in advance, and we need the program team to respect our rights and interests. ”
Suddenly it became clear: Lan Li.
