Zhang Fan was indeed a little dumbfounded.

It's okay for you to let him laugh for ten minutes on a comedy show, but it's really hard for him to tell his own jokes to make people laugh.

Zhang Fan, who was in a bad mood, glanced at the three interviewers sitting behind the desk. On their desks are nameplates for directors, producers, and screenwriters. It's just that the faces of these three people are not good-looking.

The producer in the middle looks like a black face who has lost a fine light in stock speculation and is about to go to the rooftop.

The screenwriter on the left looked at him very unpleasantly, and he didn't know how he had offended him.

As for the director on the right, he has a stiff face and an expression of indifference.

When Zhang Fan was still in a daze, the screenwriter spoke, "Okay, what's the reason why you're standing there stupidly? If you can't do it, go out, don't waste our time." ”

Zhang Fan did have the idea of quitting, after all, he really had no choice but to be unprofessional.

But the screenwriter's words stimulated Zhang Fan and made his eyes widen instantly.

Soldiers can be killed, but not humiliated!

However, Zhang Fan really had no choice at this time. He's not a professional at this, so what's the best way to make these three obviously tried and tested guys laugh?

Just when Zhang Fan was in a hurry, beads of sweat began to appear on his forehead. A voice sounded in his head, "Do you want to help?"

"Help, how to help, do you have a way?" Zhang Fan's series of responses passed in an instant.

"Of course. The system said in a confident tone, "It's not a small thing, but..."

"Don't do it. Glancing at the interviewers who were already dissatisfied, Zhang Fan eagerly said, "Let's pass this pass first!"

"Good. ”

Zhang Fan's personality can't stand the stimulation the most. Whoever is good to him, he must return the favor to others. Whoever doesn't look at him squarely, then he must also slap him!

Chen Guozhong has been in Imperial Capital TV for more than 20 years, and he is a real old man of TV station.

Unfortunately, the competition in this industry is too fierce. As a producer, Chen Guozhong's program has always been at the bottom of the ratings. In this era of commercialization, not to mention a twenty-year-old man, even a two-hundred-year-old man is not easy to use.

The station has already greeted him, and if the show doesn't improve, it will be cut.

Cutting off the show is not just talking, and the interests of all parties involved behind it are simply entangled.

And he, Chen Guozhong, as a program producer, was cut at the bottom of the show because the ratings were too low, which almost meant that he would never get a chance again.

Chen Guozhong can even imagine his next fate.

He was transferred to a cold yamen like a reference room to wait for retirement. This is still the best ending. It's not impossible to say worse than just sweeping the floor out of the house. Even if you want to go to other TV stations, it is almost impossible to make a comeback. After all, no one likes to use a loser.

Chen Guozhong, who was forced to a dead end, could only desperately recruit hosts from the society after exhausting all kinds of methods to no avail, hoping to find talented people to turn over.

There are a lot of people who come to apply, but one by one they don't even have basic skills.

The thin one just now is good, and the body is funny. But it's not enough to save the show, it's far from enough.

Chen Guozhong, who was in an irritable mood, glanced at Zhang Fan, who was motionless, sighed, and was about to let him out. was stunned to hear Zhang Fan calmly speak, "Since this is the case, then I will say a cross talk." ”

Cross talk? What do you say? We are not doing cross talk competitions!

Several interviewers frowned at the same time, but before they could speak, Zhang Fan's side had already officially started.

"This story is not too far away from now..."

"Ask my uncle and uncle if I don't know, ask my grandfather if he may remember..."

"During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period..."

"In the Spring and Autumn Period, the capital of the Qi Kingdom..."

"In those days, this was Mandarin at that time..."

At the beginning, the three interviewers were still impatient, but as Zhang Fan spoke with emotion, the expressions on the faces of the three gradually changed.

Especially when Zhang Fan came to speak the Qilu dialect, the corners of Chen Guozhong's mouth, whose hometown is Quancheng, were already upturned.

Compared with the two colleagues next to him, Chen Guozhong, who is already old, has a very good impression of cross talk. When he was younger, he listened to it a lot.

But there are not many people who can be as good as the young man in front of him said. Moreover, he could hear that this was a new joke that he had never heard of before.

"You just call me a beauty..."When Zhang Fan said Zhong Wuyan's words in a rough voice. Chen Guozhong, who had already listened attentively, couldn't help laughing anymore.

The director of the program group on the side also laughed along, this cross talk is indeed very interesting. Only the smile of the screenwriter sitting on the other side was a little strange.

Zhang Fan just said this, as if he didn't hear the laughter of the interviewers.

It wasn't until there was a knock on the door that this cross talk came to an end for the time being.

"What's the matter?" Chen Guozhong, who was in a better mood, looked at the door with a somewhat unhappy expression.

I was interrupted when I was listening to a wonderful thing, and I wouldn't have a good face if I was anyone.

The young man in charge of the outside arrangements was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly responded, "It's been more than ten minutes and no one has been called, so..."

"It's been so long?" Chen Guozhong was a little surprised. However, this also proved that what Zhang Fan said was wonderful from another aspect, which made him listen attentively.

"Young man, your cross talk is good. Chen Guozhong's face when he looked at Zhang Fan was much better, and he could be called a pleasant face.

This is not an easy thing for him, who has always been calm for a while, "It is rare for young people nowadays to specialize in traditional culture like you. ”

Zhang Fan chuckled silently, staring at the producer, waiting for his next words.

"There is a cross talk competition in Taiwan, how about I recommend you to participate?" Chen Guozhong's words made Zhang Fan's heart move slightly.

Participating in cross talk competitions can also be on TV, which can be regarded as a matter of increasing his reputation, of course he is willing to go.

It's just that Zhang Fan thought about it. Ten birds in the forest is not as good as one bird in hand. Who knows what the outcome of participating in a cross talk competition will be?

Instead of thinking about the audition competition that doesn't know when the results will be available, it is far better to finalize the things in front of you first.

"Thank you producers for your kindness. Zhang Fan smiled, "But I'm here to apply for an assistant host this time." ”

"Our show is talk, not cross talk. Before Chen Guozhong could speak, the screenwriter on the side was already a little eager.

Chen Guozhong is very clear about the little Jiujiu in the heart of his colleague. If it was in other time periods, he wouldn't lose face. It's just that now that the show is facing a life-and-death crisis, where is he still in the mood to tell him this?

Stretching out his hand and knocking on the table in front of him, Chen Guozhong was silent. The entire interview room fell silent.

After a while, Chen Guozhong looked up at Zhang Fan, "This paragraph should be very long, right?"

"Yes. Zhang Fan's heart was sudden, but on the surface, he nodded quietly.

"Good. Chen Guozhong made up his mind, "Zhang Fan, right? Leave your contact information, and we will contact you later." ”

"Okay, thank you, producer. Zhang Fan didn't know whether he was hired or not, and he was also playing drums in his heart. It's just that it doesn't show on the surface.

When he was stunned before, the system said that it could help him, and then poured this cross talk directly into his mind.

However, the help of the system also has to be charged, and Zhang Fan is now temporarily owed points, and he will have to repay it directly when he has income.

If he hadn't been selected in the end this time, Zhang Fan would have lost a lot.

"Can cross talk be famous?" Zhang Fan muttered to himself as he walked towards the door.

"I said, whatever you use. As long as you can be famous, there will be rewards. ”

After Zhang Fan left the room, the screenwriter on the side hurriedly said, "Brother Chen, our show is not about cross talk." ”

"Lao He. Chen Guozhong turned his head to look at his colleague on the side, "You want to win the opportunity for your relative to be on camera, I can understand this." It's just that you still don't understand what the situation of the program team is now? What's wrong with cross talk? The population of stand-up comedy who can speak is definitely not good. With Zhang Fan's eloquence, it is definitely more than enough to be an auxiliary host in our program team. ”

As a veteran producer, what Chen Guozhong said is indeed not wrong.

can speak stand-up comedy, and his eloquence is naturally very good. As an auxiliary host, there is absolutely no problem in accosting the genuine host on the side.

"Lao He. The director on the side also said, "Now that the program team is like this, what can you do if your relatives come in? Maybe the program will be cut after a while." The most important thing now is to find a way to keep our show alive. ”

The screenwriter stopped talking, and sat in his chair without a voice.

He originally wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to give his relative, who had never had relevant training, a chance. But I didn't expect to be cut off. What's even more infuriating is that his relative hasn't come yet!

Chen Guozhong no longer dwelled on this matter, but turned his gaze to the door, "Next, see if there are any surprises." ”

As the sun sets, the golden afterglow fills the land.

Zhang Fan and Liu Yue walked out of the small restaurant on the street, carrying a packing bag and a few bottles of beer.

Back in their rental house, the two old men directly opened the folding table and opened the bag, opened the beer, and began to blow.

"Dude, don't take it to heart. Liu Yue, who was sitting on the ground biting a beer bottle, comforted Zhang Fan with a big grin, "I just went to try." We are not professionals, so it's normal that we weren't selected. At most, there is still a subway ticket. ”

Zhang Fan glared at Liu Yue, raised his head and poured a sip of beer.

You know what? Did you know that I owe points for this interview? I also paid for the subway ticket and dinner!

Zhang Fan, who was complaining in his heart, continued to drink beer, lamenting in his heart that the points thing was really a good thing. But it's too hard to get it!

"If you want me to say, it's okay to go to a place like a TV station, so don't even think about going in. Liu Yue, who was drinking on his face, began to brag nonsense with a big grin. Unexpectedly, Zhang Fan's mobile phone rang at this time.

"Hello, who is it?" Zhang Fan glanced at his mobile phone, and it was a number he didn't recognize.

"Zhang Fan? I'm Chen Guozhong. ”

"Huh?!"
