Chapter Forty-Nine: The First Arrival
The recording time of the last notice was at night, which also made Cheon Myung-hoon breathe a sigh of relief.
He had been a little worried that he would have to take time off if he recorded during the day. It's not much resistance, but it's certainly not as good as the best of both worlds at night.
In fact, if Cheon Myung-hoon had known about it, he would have known that "X-MAN" has always been recorded at night. The guests also have their own activities during the day, and it is difficult to squeeze out time to concentrate. After all, they are also on variety shows for their own careers, and it is impossible to put the cart before the horse.
With the current popularity of the OST song "Snow Flower", Cheon Myung-hoon has long been unable to hide it in Shangxi High School.
SEVERAL MEMBERS OF THE BAND NATURL WERE THE FIRST TO RECOGNIZE THEM. often trains together, and listening to the voice is inseparable, not to mention the singer Mingxun.
There were also big mouths in the band, and it quickly spread throughout the school. Although Qian Mingxun didn't ask for it, they still spontaneously promoted it.
There is suddenly such a "big event" in the dull high school life, and the result can be imagined.
Although Cheon Myung-hoon was originally very popular in the school, the announcement of this matter still bothered him a little.
Although the show "X-MAN" has only one concept in Cheon Myung-hoon's dream, I haven't watched it completely. But in reality, Cheon Myung-hoon is indeed a big fan who contributes to the ratings on time every week.
Because of "X-MAN" as the dividing line, the previous variety show Cheon Myung-hoon had never heard of it at all. A series of variety shows that appeared after "X-MAN" were more impressive in the dream. Therefore, "X-MAN" is indeed a special existence, and the overall concept of the show has begun to take shape as a future variety show.
Gather many guests to participate in games, tasks, and competitions in groups. It's both verbal and physical. Although in Qian Mingxun's critical eyes, he still looks immature. But Qian Mingxun couldn't help but laugh, which can be said to be full of highlights.
Although it is still confined to the interior, it is also limited by the conditions. Recording outdoors requires more sophisticated video and audio recording equipment. It will cost more people and materials, and it will take some time to appear.
Through "X-MAN", Liu Jae-seok and Jiang Hudong also found their best and most suitable variety show images. For example, Liu Zaishi is at a critical time and accurate language to get to the point of being funny. Jiang Hudong is expressions and movements, using exaggerated body movements and a loud voice to create laughter.
is finally going to appear in the official show, and Cheon Myung-hoon is also a little nervous. But he is well aware of the countless classic lines and actions of future variety shows, and he will not be cold when he grasps the timing of creating laughter. So as long as you can make it as easy as possible and face it as a game mentality, there should be enough editing weight.
At least it should be considered good among variety show newcomers.

Lee Sun-hee has been in the industry for 20 years and has many acquaintances on the three major TV stations. Not to mention thousands of families, there is still enough voice in the state-owned TV station KBS, let alone the private SBS?
However, Qian Mingxun did not find someone to check up and down in advance, which is not a good thing for long-term development.
Every industry has unique rules. People in this industry may be able to accept the unspoken rules, but they can't tolerate the explicit rules being broken.
Although the existence of unspoken rules makes people discouraged and slowly degenerate, breaking the rules can make people lose their sense of security and rise up to resist.
The success of ordinary people is not easy to come by, and it is only after experiencing many pains and failures that it is willing to come by. Especially like funny artists, it's not that they are born with a love of pretending to be stupid and ugly to entertain the public. It's all about survival. They don't have good looks, or talent for singing and dancing. But they are willing to fight for what they want with their own efforts.
These people are essentially different from the stars who are gorgeously packaged. Qian Mingxun's participation in variety shows is to enter such a group. He knows that only by letting go can his true temperament be affirmed by the other party. Self-respecting identity, taking into account the image, there is no room for survival in variety shows. Many people may feel that the stakes are high when the image is lost. But they don't understand that the people just laugh for a while, and then they will feel your cordiality and closeness. The benefits are far away for a lifetime.
The first time we worked together, we didn't know each other. Cheon Myung-hoon had already straightened his mentality and planned to perform well. I'm a complete newcomer, and even if my seniors are friendly, it takes time to build friendships.
At this stage, if you mix in other things, you will never be able to build a pure friendship.
If the order to take care of the newcomers was conveyed from the top, the label of the Airborne Forces would have been firmly attached to Chi Myung-hoon. Even if everyone is accustomed to it, it will not be shown on the bright side. But as long as the thoughts in the heart are not clear, it is inevitable to treat them differently.
Cheon Myung-hoon wants to make his own connections, especially Yoo Jae-seok and Kang Ho-dong.
Liu Zaishi's experience was also very bumpy, with days of obscurity and doubting life. Success is not easy to come by, and he doesn't want the other party to feel that he is a relation.
Otherwise, Liu Zaishi will inevitably feel: I am for survival, and you are for dreams. If I've succeeded, I'll be able to point out a few things as a senior. But I'm still struggling, and you're relying on all kinds of connections. We are not at all people of the same world, you are an outlier!
People like to reject dissent. If a newcomer is isolated, the consequences can be as tragic as possible.

Cheon Myung-hoon came to the recording site of SBS's "X-MAN" production team and couldn't help but sigh.
Although it is seen on TV every week, the immersive feeling is still fresh. Moreover, many places are unexpected.
The material of the stage is actually very simple, and only the stage is quite regular. Other blind spots that cannot be seen in the video, all kinds of equipment and props are piled up.
It can be seen how much effort the program team has put in behind the scenes.
Under the guidance of the staff, Cheon Myung-hoon met Jang Hyuk-jae, the chief PD who was holding a meeting with the show's creators.
"This place will ...... when the time comes"
There is still an outline for indoor variety shows in this period. Although the guests are all improvised, they don't need to prepare too much in advance. However, the host still needs to be familiar with the "jokes" designed by the writer in advance, and think about how to introduce them subtly.
In this way, the host masters the rhythm and the guests follow the trend. It ensures that the highlights are sufficient, but it does not appear contrived.
"Hello PD, everyone...... Hello everyone. I'm rookie singer Myung-hoon, and I've been asked to record tonight's "X-MAN". I will do my best to perform and hope to be cared for by my seniors. ”
"You're Myeongxun, I didn't expect to be so young!"
Turning around, Zhang PD laid the style of the next conversation as soon as he spoke.
If PD Zhang is only talking about recording, it means that he doesn't plan to make small talk with you. Since I talked about other topics, there is an opportunity to get closer.
Qian Mingxun didn't know that Zhang PD was actually the connection of his teacher Li Shanji, and the other party had long known that Qian Mingxun was a disciple of Li Shanhee. But he didn't talk about age at the time, and he was really surprised when he saw it today.
And what makes Zhang PD very satisfied is that Qian Mingxun didn't mention anything about his background just now.
Cheon Myung-hoon's self-introduction is simple and straightforward, which fully reflects his personality.
You've seen too many newcomers here. Many people have moved out their companies, works, and seniors who can be related to each other. Maybe it has nothing to do with quality, but it is also a kind of performance without confidence. It's a common mistake made by newcomers.
Originally, the seniors didn't know about you, and you yourself said everything you could. Then there's nothing to talk about next, see you next time!
The seniors are not good enough to talk to you, and they are not idle enough to take the initiative to ask you for dinner!
Qian Mingxun behaved very calmly, did not introduce himself too much, and was not in a hurry to establish a relationship with his predecessors. All this shows that he is a very confident person.
is young, and there are popular works just after their debut. Coupled with such a mature mentality, the future is very bright.
"I'm seventeen years old. Qian Mingxun also immediately followed Zhang PD's meaning and showed the well-behaved nature that a child should have.
"You're only seventeen years old! You're so tall! That's what you sang "Snow Flower"?"
A few MCs haven't spoken yet, but the female writer next to them can't help it. She likes this song very much, and she is especially looking forward to the new singers who come to the show today.
Why am I here to sing it?
The question was a little embarrassing, and Cheon Myung-hoon had to smile and nod.
"Ah, it's so good! I love it. I'm still so handsome, I've become a fan of yours. ”
"Thank you Nuna for the compliment, I will continue to work hard in the future. ”
When the other party heard Qian Mingxun call him sister, he was also smiling. I'm actually very embarrassed by my age, and I belong to the kind of person who can call my aunt or sister. Everyone said that Cheon Myung-hoon was young, and if he met him on the street, he would be called Auntie. But in the studio, he called his sister was the right choice!
"It's a very polite child, I'm Liu Zaishi, and I'm an MC......"
The current Yoo Jae-seok is not a future national MC, so naturally he will not say things like "my very dear brother" when he sees people. Because it is clear that this sentence does not have enough weight and value to have the additional meaning of being recognized by a national MC.
After Liu Zaishi finished talking about himself, he began to introduce the people next to him again. Although as a loyal viewer, Cheon Myung-hoon has long been familiar with it. But he didn't make a sound, just listened quietly. I hope to take this opportunity to take a good look at what the artists are like outside the camera.
Many funny artists are not also funny in life, and may even seem cold. Because performing in front of the camera really drained my interest, it was rare to be quiet in private.
After Yoo Jae-seok finished speaking, Cheon Myung-hoon spoke: "I'm a fan of "X-MAN", and I watch every episode on time. I really didn't expect to have the opportunity to come to the scene, and now I am very happy!"
"Really? It can't be just a polite remark! I haven't seen a single episode!"
Seeing that Qian Mingxun had been behaving very decently, Jiang Hudong couldn't help but start to put pressure on his occupational disease, wanting to see Qian Mingxun's reaction.
"Of course. ”
Qian Mingxun's seemingly nonsensical words made everyone laugh. Because that's exactly what X-MAN is known for – of course.
"It seems that it is really a fan who often watches the show, and he reacted subconsciously. ”
"yes, that's right. ”
With this proof, it was immediately recognized by everyone. The atmosphere of the conversation became better and better, and Cheon Myung-hoon quickly blended in.
