Chapter 35: Tonight's Post-80s
After hearing Zheng Long's answer, even Cheng Daren's face couldn't be hanged. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoAt that moment, he also seemed to feel that his variety show career might really be over...
"Zheng Long..."
But the child who looked like a middle school student in front of him said calmly:
"It's nothing, you give me a piece of paper and a pen, and I'll write it to you right away..."
Sun Dasheng looked at Cheng Daren with a wry smile, as if he had reached some degree of tacit understanding, and then said:
"Okay, let's take a look at the plan you wrote... Although I don't have much hope..."
As he spoke, he asked his secretary Xiao Huang to bring tea to Zheng Long, and gave him a pen and a notebook...
Cheng Daren was silently smoking a cigarette next to him, his mind was blank...
"It's written!"
In less than ten minutes, Zheng Long had already written with a pen.
In fact, he had already thought about the planning of this new show in the process of taking a taxi.
Of course, this case is not an imagination, but a show that has achieved unprecedented success in later generations.
"Tonight's post-80s?"
Producer Sun Dasheng looked at Zheng Long's planning book, touched the beard on his mouth, and became playful.
"The name is still a bit level..."
Sun Dasheng continued to read with relish, but before he was halfway through it, he jumped up:
"What? Do you want to do a talk show? Or is it the European and American kind? ”
Sun Dasheng's tone almost blurted out "You're crazy".
Zheng Long nodded:
"That's right, now only doing a talk show is the best choice."
"I heard you right..."
The little trust and hope that Sun Dasheng had just ignited was struck by Zheng Long's unreliable idea...
He had no choice but to ask for help and cast his pitiful eyes on Cheng Daren next to him.
Cheng Daren took the humble plan written in his notebook and read it carefully.
After reading it, the glimmer of hope in Cheng Daren's original eyes was almost completely extinguished...
He looked at the young genius in front of him who he couldn't understand with very serious eyes:
"Zheng Long, I'm not kidding... What do you think of this... Can a talk show really be successful? ”
Zheng Long nodded firmly and said:
"I'm sure yes, yes."
"Why, I need a reason!"
Cheng Daren, who was standing on the side, couldn't wait to shout.
"There are three reasons for this. First, the budget of our new program must not be very high, because the station's expectations for Mr. Cheng are already very low, Mr. Cheng's recent programs have not been as successful as they should be, and the ratings are bleak. Secondly, my show will definitely be popular, and its success has been tested by the market. There are similar shows in the United States and Port City, both of which have been successful in a variety of different markets. ”
Sun Dasheng shook his head, still refusing to believe this plan:
"Foreign is foreign, and China is Chinese. Your set won't work on our side, you don't know if you're not doing variety shows, the audience in China likes to be lively the most. What kind of talk show are you doing, just talking and talking on stage with empty tongues, if it's tasteless, will the audience buy it? It's not ancient now, and entertainment is so rich! ”
Cheng Daren also helped beside him:
"Yes, Aaron, it's better to see if you're thinking about a case again. I know you're talented, but don't be whimsical either. You have a certain amount of creativity in this case, but it is too bold for the station to pass it. ”
Zheng Long said without a red face and without a heartbeat:
"You don't make sense. There is no solid reason for you to refute me. You said that the audience didn't buy this form of performance, so how did cross talk endure? Isn't there so much quyi that is one or two people in a field, and everyone is still elated to watch? In the final analysis, it's still a matter of whether this book is well written, and whether the whole scene can be lively. I've written a lot of details in this case, and I think you'll understand it when you look at it. ”
Hearing Zheng Long say this, Sun Dasheng felt that it really made some sense, so he reorganized his mood and picked up the plan again and looked at it carefully.
"You're going to set up the stand-up show scene to look like a bar?"
Sun Dasheng saw half of it and hurriedly asked Zheng Long.
Zheng Long nodded:
"That's right, it livens up the atmosphere, and there can be a live DJ to adjust the atmosphere, and the young people will definitely buy it. And the core selling point of my plan is to conform to the jokes of young people. It's completely different from other forms of comedy! ”
"Sounds interesting!" Cheng Daren was half persuaded by Zheng Long, grabbed the plan and studied it carefully.
Zheng Long took advantage of the victory and pursued, saying:
"Most of these comedies now make jokes about people with disabilities, dialect accents from all over the world, and there are many meat jokes, and the jokes are relatively vulgar, most of them are developed in the bathhouse, so there is no way. And our program is aimed at the young people in the sea market. What are the characteristics of these young people? High knowledge, high income, but very lacking in their own time and other entertainment. Many of these people are tired of the glittering life, no longer want to go to the bar to have a drink, and like to stay at home and watch TV on weekends. So, if we can put out a show that is tailored to them, it will definitely be welcomed by them. ”
Sun Dasheng said thoughtfully:
"What do you mean? Launch some jokes specially written for the post-80s generation, and use these jokes to connect the whole show? Wouldn't that be a bit monotonous? I admit that if the host is chosen well, it is likely that the effect will still be a little, but one or two episodes will be like this, but if there is only one host in each issue, the audience will definitely get tired of it! ”
Zheng Long said:
"The problems you are talking about do exist. I've also thought about it, and in order to solve this problem, we can invite a few joke guests, and let these guests also go on stage to talk about a few jokes, of course, these jokes should all serve a theme. Each episode of the program has a fixed theme, such as toys from the post-80s generation, etc., and then the guests of each episode tell a joke according to this theme to see who can amuse the audience, and then select some of the best guests in each episode, which can allow the audience to participate. ”
Cheng Daren seemed to have entered a state and said:
"Yes, you can also add some street interviews, ask these young people what toys they liked when they were young, and then edit the interesting answers and put them in the show, which can add some richness to the show."
Zheng Long nodded:
"Exactly!"
