Chapter 100: Three Days and Two Nights
After Yang Yang returned to the magic capital, he learned that his total score in the art examination was the first among this batch of specially recruited candidates, and this news was still what he saw in the newspaper.
After the news came out, many people were stunned, not only because Yang Yang took the first exam, but the words in front of the first - "Film and Television Drama Director Department".
The movie "July and Ansheng" is also a hit in movie theaters, in addition to quickly becoming popular with the two newcomer actresses, Yang Yang's amazing performance also dazzled everyone.
Coupled with the popularity brought by his previous albums, it can be said that he is promising and star-studded.
But when his prospects in the entertainment industry are very good, he actually went to apply for the directing department without telling everyone, even if it is the music department, it will not be so surprising, it is really surprising.
"You kid really went to learn directing?" Zhang Bai looked at Yang Yang and laughed at himself, "My heart is really big." ”
Yang Yang's mobile phone was about to be blown up, so he simply turned it off and secretly came to drink tea with Zhang Bai to be clean.
"Didn't you instigate me to sign up?" Yang Yang pinched the small ceramic teacup and took a sip of it.
Zhang Bai smiled, and he admired Yang Yang's character - unexpected and thoughtful.
"By the way, I met an old man during the interview, and he seems to know you. Yang Yang suddenly spoke.
Zhang Bai glared at him and scolded with a smile: "What old man, that's my teacher, a professor in Nortel's directing department." ”
Yang Yang was taken aback, he only learned today that Zhang Bai also came out of Nortel. So he still became his junior brother?!
At this time, Zhang Bai took a sip of tea, and then said: "Actually, I have a friend who is coming over today, and he keeps saying that he wants to get to know you."
Zhang Bai was halfway through his words, and suddenly his eyes drifted over Yang Yang and fell behind him, and said, "Hey, he's here." ”
Yang Yang followed Zhang Bai's gaze and saw a middle-aged man wearing glasses and his unattractive appearance walking towards the two.
When the man arrived at the two, he first said hello to Zhang Bai, and then smiled at Yang Yang, and said, "Yang Yang, Chen Mingyi, I have heard your new album, and I like the songs in it very much." ”
"Thank you. Yang Yang nodded politely at him, then looked at Zhang Bai, waiting for him to introduce.
"Lao Chen is doing variety shows, I have watched "Quanming Acceleration", he planned it. ”
Yang Yang has the impression that "Quanming Acceleration" is a relatively popular large-scale variety show, and celebrities are invited as guests to break through each issue, and the ratings have always been quite high.
Chen Mingyi smiled and nodded, Zhang Bai poured him tea, he picked up the cup and just took a sip, then said to Yang Yang straight to the point: "Actually, I asked Lao Zhang to help match the bridge today, the purpose is to invite you to participate in a new program that I am planning recently." ”
Yang Yang was thoughtful, to be honest, he had never considered it in this direction, some time ago when the album was on fire, Yan Xiude picked him up a lot, but he was busy preparing for Nortel, so he pushed it all.
Now that Nortel's art examination is over, there are nearly three months to go before leaving school, and Yang Yang is still wondering whether to encourage Zhang Bai to make a movie again. (There are too many good scripts in his head, and the success of "July and Ansheng" tickles his heart.) )
If you take advantage of this time to go on a few variety shows and gather another wave of popularity, it's not that you can't consider it.
"The specific program plan is here, you can take a look at it first and then reply to me. Chen Mingyi said as he took out a document from behind him and handed it to Yang Yang.
His actions seemed quite casual, but in fact, his real thoughts were far from being as easy as they appeared.
Although Chen Mingyi has a good personal relationship with Zhang Bai, his fame is far less than that of Zhang Bai, "Quanming Acceleration" is the most important program in his hands, but because the life span of this show is not short, and the familiar stars have basically been on it, and there are so many gimmicks back and forth, the audience has long begun to have aesthetic fatigue.
Since the first episode of this year, the reputation and popularity of the show have begun to decline sharply.
Chen Mingyi was sleepy and thought about change, and planned to start planning a new show, Yang Yang is the hottest new star in recent times, and his image and temperament are also very good, so he asked Zhang Bai to help Yang Yang make an appointment.
The thin dozens of pages were quickly turned over, and Yang Yang probably figured out the content of this show. In fact, it is similar to the current mainstream outdoor variety shows, the program team sets up levels, and the celebrity guests challenge under the rules, although there are some new ideas, but they still can't get rid of the shadow of "Quanming Acceleration".
Yang Yang put down the plan and found that Chen Mingyi was looking at him with blazing eyes, he pondered for a moment and said, "Brother Chen, I have some ideas that I don't know if it's appropriate to talk about?"
"Just ask. Chen Mingyi hurriedly said.
Yang Yang nodded and glanced at Zhang Bai, this guy was drinking tea on the ground, as if he had nothing to do with him.
"I think there's still a little bit less innovation in your show. In fact, when Yang Yang said this, he was already thinking about going to this variety show, otherwise he would not be idle to give Chen Mingyi advice.
"We don't have to limit the scope of the challenge to a small area, we can expand it to more places, like on the street, in the mall, in the playground, and even I think it would be better to get out of the city and get closer to nature. ”
"The content of the challenge can also be more diversified, I have watched several foreign variety shows before, they arrange stars to be grouped, and provide necessary tools for stars to survive in the wild or in the countryside for a few days. During this period, celebrities need to make their own fires and cook, set up their own tents, and solve all the problems they encounter by themselves. I think this is very interesting, and I think the audience will be more interested in this kind of challenge when they are tired of watching the urban challenge..."
"And the theme of the show can also be sublimated, for example, why do celebrities go to great lengths to complete challenges? We can make a gimmick, set a certain amount of bonus at the end of each challenge, and this bonus is certainly not for the stars who participate in the challenge. After the challenge is completed, it will be donated to the charity fund in the name of the individual star..."
"I think if we do it in this way, not only will the invited guests be happy to participate, but the audience will also find it meaningful. ”
Yang Yang's words were like opening a skylight above Chen Mingyi's head. The first time he heard that variety shows could still be done like this, it was too whimsical.
Chen Mingyi was originally a professional, but when he was inspired by Yang Yang, his thinking was opened, and inspiration suddenly came out of his mind.
"What do you think should be done in terms of specific details..."
Chen Mingyi simply put aside the original plan and threw himself into a heated discussion with Yang Yang.
What Yang Yang said was actually what he saw on TV in his previous life, but most of the variety shows in this world didn't think of this side.
So the next two provided ideas and perfected the details, completely leaving Zhang Bai aside. Zhang Bai couldn't cry or laugh, but he wasn't annoyed, and listened quietly on the side.
After an hour, the two of them said that their mouths were dry, and a pot of tea had already been drunk by the two of them.
"Okay, how do you choose a name?
"It's just called "Three Days and Two Nights", what do you think. ”
"Three days and two nights, three days and two nights..."The more Chen Mingyi read it, the more he felt that the name had flavor and fit the theme, so he made a decision immediately, "That's it!"
Chen Mingyi listened to Yang Yang's opinions and set the highlight of the show as "celebrity guests independently survive in the specified place for three days and two nights".
The theme is also linked to public welfare, which is full of gimmicks.
"In that case, I'll go back and sort it out again, try to get the script for the first episode finalized this week, and then notify you to come over for the recording as soon as possible. What do you think?" Chen Mingyi had a slight excitement on his face, as if he couldn't wait to run back to his office now.
Yang Yang smiled and nodded, and when Chen Mingyi saw that he agreed, he excitedly greeted the two and left in a hurry.
