Chapter 349: What is cross talk?
With Yang Fan's heavy footsteps, he finally came to the outside of the office of the director of the program production team.
Yang Fan knocked lightly on the door, and a middle-aged man's voice came from inside.
"Come in!"
Director Liu was working at this time, and when he saw Yang Fan coming in, a smile appeared on his face, and he said politely: "It turns out that Xiao Yang is here, come on, hurry up and sit down." β
beckoned the secretary to pour Yang Fan a cup of tea, and then waved his hand to let him out, which made him look at Yang Fan with burning eyes.
"Xiao Yang, you have been coming to our company for several days, and I have nothing else to do when I asked you to come, I just want to ask you if you have any opinions on some things in the planning of this program. β
"Actually, I won't tell you, on the side of our program production team, we haven't produced a more innovative program for a long time, and it's not a time to rely on the old foundation to support it, and if the website is here these days, the number of clicks on some original programs is also declining very fast, in fact, you should also see it, why did we call you over, and your classmate, to put it bluntly, I just want you to come over to see if fresh blood can drive the development of the company, so, can you understand my concernsοΌβ
Yang Fan is very aware of some of the difficulties that Longteng Video Website Company is facing now, and it is precisely because of these that he resolutely came here.
If he was somewhere else, he might be able to exert some strength, but it was far from being as comfortable as life here, and besides, there were challenging things, so Yang Fan wanted to do some.
Seeing the leader's eagerness, Yang Fan put the folder he was holding in his right hand on the leader's desk upright.
"Director Liu, don't worry, for such a long time, of course I haven't been mixed in the company, this is some of the planning plans I have done in the past few days, it is about my new show, I originally wanted to bring it to you to take a look, this is not what you just called me, I also took it by the way!"
Director Liu originally thought that Yang Fan didn't care about these things, but he just came here and was familiar with the environment, but he didn't expect this kid's enthusiasm for work to be so high, and he didn't speak to make the relevant copywriting a thorough job, which surprised him.
"Oh, since you've got it all done, then I have to take a good look!" To be honest, how could a leader not like such a motivated subordinate? He originally thought that Yang Fan came here, because some people ignored him, so he started to make trouble, and he didn't start working well, and he was actually quite uncomfortable in his heart, and he originally wanted to suppress this kid and let him know that he should work, and he didn't come here to play, but he didn't expect that people had begun to take on the role at this time, and they started to work so hard.
With such a delicate mind, how could the leaders not like it.
As he spoke, he had already taken the yellow folder in his hand, and then looked at it slowly.
Yang Fan sat opposite him, slowly sipping tea, his whole expression was not the slightest hesitation or excitement, and he seemed very calm, as if the leader was not looking at his plan.
But after Director Liu finished reading everything, a strange look flashed on his face, "Cross talk?"
Yang Fan smiled and nodded.
"What is cross talk?"
"Uh...... Cross talk is cross talk!"
"Uh......"
What are you kid doing? I'm your boss, can you speak with a little respect?
Director Liu was a little angry, and the smile on his face had slowly faded, but he still said bitterly: " Xiao Yang, what are you doing, it's not that I'm not optimistic about your show, in fact, I just want to tell you that now these new columns, its audience and all aspects of things to consider are too much, you should also know what a good program planning must need, you should understand that the current number of clicks on our website, as well as some things played, there is really no way to achieve a certain degree of audience data, our website company has created some paid projects, and few audiences pay. β
"But you also have to know that after all, it's the Internet era, and all major video websites are competing for market share, and from some recent data reports, some of the share of our website is losing rapidly, so this opening is too big, you must be cautious!"
Yang Fan knows what the leader is worried about, and he also knows that the thing he innovated may have some risks to a certain extent, but he also already knows that if the predicament that Longteng Video Website is facing now continues to develop so heavily, this kind of twilight wind will make the company decay sooner or later.
Yang Fan couldn't help but continue to mention: "If you don't take a look at it again, after you finish reading, let's talk about it again." β
Director Liu watched while Yang Fan explained to him, " You see, leader, this cross talk is actually very simple, it is a kind of language and literature, it can also be called a caliber, the content of the homepage is to tell some anecdotes of some celebrities at home and abroad, mainly biased towards some things in our traditional culture, but now the development of the Internet, some Internet buzzwords are also constantly improving, we can also borrow some of the above things, learn from some of the culture that young people like, rub some hot topics in, and then compose them, as well as the interpretation of related properties. β
Director Liu looked at him deeply, feeling that this young man was fooling himself, but when he saw the eyes on the other party and a hint of farewell in the depths of his eyes, he said helplessly: "What you said, what is the difference between it and the stage drama and the drama, they are all about some things, I don't think there is any difference, how dare you guarantee that the audience will like the content output in this mode, and if it is imposed, what if it can't be loved by the audience?"
Yang Fan hurriedly waved his hand, he understood very well that the leader was wrong, and thought of his cross talk, so he hurriedly continued to explain: "No, leader, what I got is not a drama, nor a stage play, let alone a current affairs lecture?" To tell the truth, the cross talk column I created, in fact, the fundamental purpose is to bring joy to everyone, the main content is some things that happen, and then, I tell it in a more joyful way, that is, to amuse the audience, in fact, there is no need to be too sure of the scale, that is, in the screening of content, there is a little strange thing as much as possible, even if there are some historical things or other things that cannot be studied, as long as it does not involve sensitive topics and political things, in fact, we can use itγ β
"Oh?" Director Liu was interested, "Then you mean to say that to engage in that kind of variety show of a related nature, is it necessary to invite some stars, and then you do some funny things, this foreign country is already doing it, and we have also done a lot of related programs in China, if you do it, it may be a little risky!"
Yang Fan continued to shake his head like a rattle, "It's not like this, director, this nature is still a little not very lively, in fact, I think some of our current interviews or variety shows, the artificial traces are too heavy, please tell the truth with so many guests, my words as an audience seem to be very fake, so I don't need too many audiences, I just hope that these audiences can have more weight in various industries and fields, and then let them interact accordingly on some of the things I said." β
"I heard you right, you just said something about what you said, could it be that you mean that you are going to start this show alone, you are not kidding, are you?
Director Liu's face was simply shocked, he didn't understand how this young man could have so much courage.
"This is what you call cross talk? But why does it feel like it's the same as those talk shows abroad, let's not get something that plagiarizes other people's things, if that's the case, it's likely to cause conflicts with some foreign programs and media. β
"Don't worry, our cross talk and the foreign talk show are not compatible at all, but this cross talk not only has stand-up comedy, but also group comedy, the theme is very prominent, so in terms of program planning, we only need to determine a corresponding theme, and then continue to enrich the content according to this theme, and then it will already be alive, so it is very convenient to make it up. β
At this time, Yang Fan is very confident in the performance method of cross talk, because he knows that this is a pioneering performance program, there seems to be a so-called talk show abroad, but there is not a model between the two at all, the main content of the talk show is the extension of the content and the combination of some more realistic content, and like cross talk is to determine the theme of a program, and then according to the continuous development of the theme, the two forms of artistic performance types are not together at all, so there is no plagiarism style.
Director Liu was honest, he was really not optimistic about this show, and after thinking about it, he reluctantly said: "Actually, I haven't watched this show before, I don't know where you got this idea or rather, is there a type of show abroad now?"
Yang Fan shrugged his shoulders, "Leader, this type of cross talk performance is not unique to me, but I have read a lot of ancient books, and I found a performance method from it, that is, these people don't pay much attention to those things now, so I have a chance." β
Director Liu was really helpless to be honest, he glanced at Yang Fan's plan, pondered for a long time in his heart, and then said to Yang Fan with some bitterness: " Xiao Yang, to be honest, the risk of your show is too great, I actually believe in your strength very much, but this kind of performance form of the program is really a big risk for our company, you also know the strength of our company, now relying on the economic supply of the head office, but this is not a long-distance development model, if we can't reverse the loss within a certain period of time, it is likely that we will not be funded by the next appropriation of the head office. β
"And like yours, some things with classical programs, I doubt that young people like this model or not, you should also think about it, as a young person, you take a closer look, whether young people like this model of adding content or not, as for it, and some new things on the Internet, but I think the risk is too great, if you want to do it well, it is likely to gradually turn to the direction of vulgar culture, but in this way, it will be a huge stain on our company, and we must not dare to move, but if we only rely on this show to sell laughterIt's also a loss of prestige for the company, do you know?"
Yang Fan didn't know how to explain his cross talk to the leader at this time, so he could only continue to insist: "Don't worry, leader, I am very confident in my show, like the content of this kind of show, I will definitely make him funny at the same time, with far-reaching influence and significance, as long as you believe me, I can pull up a team immediately, and we can start filming immediately!"
Who knew that Director Liu's face on the side sank, and after thinking for a while, he looked at Yang Fan again, "Xiao Yang, the risk of your show is too great, it's not that I don't want to approve it, it's really an influence that I can't accept at all, and the audience of you, the audience, I don't think it's very wide, if you do this, to be honest, it's hard to get ahead, if you want to really follow the heat, there is basically no chance." β
The leader's meaning is obvious, and he just wants to give up this show, but since Yang Fan has already made a show, how can he easily let go and call his own efforts.
"Leader, just give me a chance, I'm very confident in my strength. Yang Fan looked serious, "You may think that my crosstalk related program does not follow the pace of young people, but this can change some young people's development and tolerance of our national culture, besides, we are not completely developing traditional culture, while developing culture, you have to take its essence and take its dross, and constantly absorb some favorable components from the outside world." β
Speaking of this, he saw that the leader still had a resolute look, gritted his teeth, and said directly: "Otherwise, you will allocate a little money to me, and I will make the first episode of the program first, if the first episode of the program is not in line with the broadcast volume of our program, although you can cut my program, I Yang Fan has nothing to say." β
When he first came here, in fact, Mr. Xiao Xu had already promised that when Yang Fan came, the first program he produced did not need to be reported to anyone, and the whole company would give him enough economic conditions and some manpower, and Yang Fan could live here and persuaded him bitterly, Director Liu just hoped that he would be able to make the program production smoother in the future, instead of being criticized and suppressed by the leadership.
In fact, to be honest, after being a director for so long, he has seen many people plan copywriting, and in the process of being denied, they all look like they are arguing with reason.
And when the show wasn't made, it was all over the place. pretentiously thinks that if his program is produced, it will definitely be popular all over the country, so he is a little indignant at the programs that the leaders deduct them.
But he found that Yang Fan was different from these people, although Yang Fan's eyes also had some eagerness, but his self-cultivation was very good, and there was no change in his tone, but his eyes were unusually deep, and he could even read a trace of disappointment and reluctance in Yang Fan's eyes.
Why did he have such an expression, could he really have miscalculated?
Thinking of some of the things that Deputy General Manager Wang said to himself, Director Liu gritted his teeth, "Since you are so confident, I won't say anything about other things, your show and related copywriting planning, as well as advertising placement, I think it's actually quite good, since you are so confident, then I'll help you hand it over, but I can't guarantee that it will be successful." β
Yang Fan's face showed joy, "Thank you, Director Liu!"
Director Liu waved his hand, "You don't have to thank me, you are so young now, you have already achieved such achievements, I should indeed give you a chance." β
"Then thank you so much Director Liu for giving me this opportunity. Yang Fan knew what the other party was worried about, but people could actually hand things over on such an occasion, which was already a lot of trust in himself.
After Yang Fan left, Director Liu took Yang Fan's document and studied it for a long time, and finally found that he couldn't see anything famous at all, sighed deeply, and finally took Yang Fan's document and went directly to the deputy general manager Wang.
Although he is the director of program production, he has just looked at some of the resources that Yang Fan needs, as well as the flow of funds, and found that he can't decide anything at all, of course, he has to take it and discuss it with some related personnel, and the most important thing is that everyone should discuss the possibility.
β¦β¦
After Yang Fan went out, he felt that the beating was a little too obvious, in fact, to be honest, whether his show is good or not, in his heart, there is no bottom, what he just said is so domineering, to be honest, he just wants to cheer himself up, and he also hopes that the leader will see his firmness and be able to go to his side for a while on the show.
However, to put it bluntly, what if the leaders did not discuss the production of this show and blew their own show?
Or do they feel that the nature of the new column of cross talk does not conform to the rules and regulations of their program production, so where should they go?
Speaking of which, as an emerging show, what many people are actually thinking about while watching this show is not how beautiful the show is, but what they should do if the show is not good.
But Yang Fan is actually very right, Longteng Video has an opinion on this website, think about those national TV stations, they will definitely not fight, everything is based on stability, after all, there is government funding.
Besides, some of the more sensitive topics in politics, if they say it, are not good things to talk about in terms of ideology.
This is also like this kind of column people, they are actually more conservative, but Yang Fan is still confident in his program, maybe it can't be a big hit, but at least he can make it the only one in the industry, and make it a benchmark program, in his opinion, if he can lead the trend of the industry, to some extent, it is actually successful.
