Chapter Ninety-Four: The Laughing Point

"I advise you not to pay attention to this National Broadcast Day. Cheng Gaoge said.

"Why?"

"This thing is just a gimmick now, and the programs broadcast by TV stations are usually very continuous, like variety shows, and TV dramas, etc., if you watch it from the middle, it is difficult to understand the fun. โ€

"Isn't it okay to do a brand new project? All day. Fan Cheng asked.

"New project!?Just for this 24-hour show?," Cheng Gao sang.

"Let's calculate the accounts, variety shows, in addition to the planning of scripts, the most important investment in hardware is the use of studio sets and shooting equipment, in which the shooting work can be reused or rented except for consumables, but the studio must use a new layout, conventional variety shows, arrange a studio, at least one quarter and half a year or even longer, which will greatly share the production costs, but what about single-shot programs? For the sake of one episode of the program, a brand new studio is arranged, and no matter how rich the TV station is, it can't afford to toss it like this. โ€

"In that case, wouldn't this broadcast day be completely useless?" Fan Cheng asked.

"In fact, it is not necessarily true to say that it has no effect at all, in order to make the national broadcast date to a positive effect, the relevant departments have made a lot of efforts, such as advertising, after all, it is a national broadcast program, so there are still some advertising, and the advertising income obtained by the TV station from this day is not taxed at all. โ€

"Wouldn't that be very profitable?"

"How can it be as easy as you think, how much advertising revenue can be in a day, not to mention that the advertising of the national broadcast day channel is all ladder system, the national ratings below five percent, compared to the investment in one program, that is, mosquito legs, it is only after five percent, it can be regarded as barely breaking even, and after ten percent is a big profit, but at the national level, you can get ten percent of the ratings, I'm afraid they are the top gods, you just broadcast for a day, it is almost impossible to get this rating. โ€

"Okay, I see, look at the plan, it seems that the recent national broadcast day will not be our turn until half a year later, so let's put it on for now. Fan Cheng said.

After the broadcast content was basically determined, the daily broadcast content of the comprehensive entertainment channel of the municipal TV station became like this:

0600 to 0730, news and information programs, an hour and a half of originality.

0730 to 1630, replay other programs or breaks.

1630 to 1800, rebroadcast news and information programs,

From 1800 to 1900, the children's program lasted for an hour.

1900 to 2000, three rounds of TV series purchased in one hour.

2000 to 2130, one and a half hours "All Assemble at 8 P.m."

2130 to 2230, "Homecoming" for an hour.

2230 to 2330, a one-hour variety show purchased.

2330 to 2430, Gilgamesh

2430, end of play.

Four hours of originality a day, four hours of purchased programs, it seems that there are only eight hours of new programs, but for a TV station in the initial period, this broadcast time is enough, especially the production capacity, the production capacity of four hours a day, even the local Yangji station can not do it, you know, Yangji station except for the news at half past seven every night, occasionally hosting some puzzle game competitions and the like, there is no fixed program production, what variety shows, TV series, if you want to say do, Yangji TV can do so one or two quarters a year, but there is no way to maintain it all year roundใ€‚

In the past six months of the junior TV station, Fan Cheng has initially established a variety show production system that is small but has all kinds of organs, from the producer to the film crew to the artist, although the quality of the program is not as good as Fan Cheng's direct intervention in the production, but at least the daily broadcast time can be enough.

What Fan Cheng taught his group of young people is not only used in the curriculum, all kinds of pretending to be stupid and complaining, if they are substituted into a reasonable situation, they can directly become part of the show.

Such a small production team may not be able to come up with the best program ideas, but there is no problem in making a qualified variety show in this era, even if Fan Cheng does not intervene, the program team still has the ability to survive.

What's more, Fan Cheng is not left alone.

After the upgrade work was completely completed, the first project he did was a new project for all the staff to gather at 8 o'clock in the evening!

This new project, said to be a new project of "All Assembles at 8 O'Clock in the Night", is actually a brand new show, because the name of this project is "Laughter".

Some of Japan's national programs are actually very famous in China, such as animation, everyone knows "Robot Cat", knows "Crayon Xiaoxin", knows "Dragon Ball", but Japan's real national animation is actually called "Miss Conch", which is an animation that has been broadcast since 1969 and is known as a never-ending animation, and in the Japanese variety show circle, there is also a program similar to "Miss Conch", that is, "Laughter".

This is a classic variety show that has been broadcast since 1966 and has just celebrated its fiftieth birthday.

Of course, there is no need to continue to use this title in Huaxia, Fan Cheng directly called it a "laughing" link.

As for the classic sets and rules in those shows, Fan Cheng has his own plans.

After the upgrade was completed, the first preparatory meeting he hosted was about "Laughing Points".

At the meeting, everyone in the troupe was very worried after hearing Fan Cheng say what he was going to do.

"Third uncle, can we really do this?" Wang Xingxing asked worriedly.

They are no longer the actors of a small troupe that they didn't know before, they have theoretical teaching, practical rehearsals, and continuous TV program resources "feeding", and they now have a general concept of TV and variety shows.

variety shows, the most difficult thing is to host, then to comment, pretending to be stupid and complaining, the simplest is reaction skills and rehearsed short plays, so far, what they are learning and practicing is actually the simplest skills, not to mention the most difficult part, even the three things of commenting and pretending to be stupid and complaining, they haven't really started yet.

The previous "Eight O'clock in the Night, All Assembled", which was a short drama and a reaction skill, did not require too much personal language ability and reaction speed, so they were barely competent, but now when it comes to doing a show like "Laughter", they are all worried.

Because "Laughter" is a thorough talk show.

A few people were sitting there with a bunch of cameras in front of them, and a group of people were just shooting for half an hour or even an hour, which was worrying to think about.

"It's okay, I'll write detailed scripts for you for the first two months, and after two months, you'll get used to it. Fan Cheng comforted everyone.

But there was one thing he didn't say.

Variety show ability is a thing that depends on talent, if you can do it, it won't take long to see it, and if you can't do it, it won't take long to see it, the so-called two months is not only the time for them to get used to this kind of talk show, but also the time for Fan Cheng to observe them, two months later, the people who can continue to make jokes, the troupe works hard to cultivate, and those who can't go back to do other shows.

Of course, there is another thing that must be done in such a mechanism of continuous cultivation and elimination.

"Uncle Cheng, how is the recruitment work?" Fan Cheng took the time to ask Cheng Gaoge.

It is not only the Yoshimoto Theater Company that recruits people, but also the technical personnel of the comprehensive entertainment channel, and the junior TV station does not need any technical personnel at all, from photography to lighting and sound props, all the technical personnel have only one word, rent! But when the TV station reaches the municipal level, the people and things you want are not so easy to rent.

People who are not their own do not worry about it, and it is also a big burden on the price of renting all the time, so it is better to grit your teeth and buy it directly.

Of course, this is still a big burden on Fan Chenghe TV's finances.

After paying off the loan for the previous program, Fan Cheng took the contract signed with the North Group and other companies, as well as the upgrade documents of the municipal TV station, and found the bank to borrow a sum of money again, this money plus advertising fees, in addition to salaries, the rest were used for various hardware purchases and program production, which directly drained his finances again, which made him even a little new, although he has only been in this world for more than half a year, there are many people who hate him, in case these people start on their own side, they may not be able to get a penny of excess funds at that timeใ€‚

It's not okay to do this, he knows it himself, but he doesn't really have time to wait, every year passes, the world will have huge changes, and the junior and municipal TV stations are not enough to display all kinds of ideas in his heart, only to be promoted to the provincial TV station as soon as possible is the right stage in his heart.

"Laughter" should be the program that Yoshimoto Theater Company is most concerned about recently, Wang Xingxing, Wanhong and others are very nervous to think about what they can do according to Fan Cheng's script, his script is very meticulous, but Fan Cheng will tell everyone once when he is in that script, I just prepare these scripts for you so carefully now, in the future, you will not only have to perform, but even participate in the script writing work, not only to consider the answer, but even what the topic has to consider.

And Fan Cheng, after handing over the script, he didn't care about the things here for the time being, and when he really started filming, it was the occasion for him to appear again, and the rest of the time, he began to grasp the news and information program he proposed, this program named "Good Morning Yangji" was pinned on by Fan Cheng, he hoped that this program would completely occupy the morning of Yangji within a month, and become the only voice in Yangji City every morning, and from the beginning of every day, the comprehensive entertainment channel would be put into the hearts of Yangji citizens.
