Coming out of the lounge, Lee Jun-hee went directly into the MC lounge not far away, pushed open the door, and only Jiang Hudong was alone inside, holding the script and preparing for filming.

Seeing that Li Junxi had arrived, Jiang Hudong also hurriedly got up, greeted him, and directly gave Li Junxi a big hug: "Junxi! ”

"Brother Hudong! At this time, I was still looking at the script of the table, and I hadn't seen you prepare so carefully before! ”

Li Junxi said, seeing that the VJ of "Happiness of 10,000 Yuan" was also going to follow up with the camera, Li Junxi waved his hand at him.

VJ is also a shrewd person, knowing that Lee Jun Hee and Jiang Hu Dong have private matters to say, they didn't insist, anyway, the weight of today's shooting is enough for editing, and Lee Jun Hee is such a big name, being able to come to their show is very face-saving in itself, there is no need to really force Lee Jun Hee too embarrassed for the sake of the show.

Closing the door, Jiang Hudong asked Li Junxi to sit down, when Li Junxi came in just now, he looked very happy, but now he began to frown again.

"What's the matter, Brother Hudong, if there are still few people, I'll call Brother Chengxun and ask him to come over too!"

Jiang Hudong smiled and said: "No need, the words of the guests are enough, now I am thinking about how to connect the show, Zhong Min's injury, my previous preparations were in vain, and now I am too late in time, so I can only think of a way while shooting!" ”

Li Junxi also knows that variety shows like "Love Letter" are not all free for the guests, but each episode of the program is designed by the writers of the film crew according to the participating guests, little by little, and then let the guests play freely within this framework.

"That kid, when is it not good to get injured, but at this time, it's really a headache!"

When Lee Jun-hee heard this, he also knew that Jiang Hudong was not really complaining about Kim Jong-min. But the recent ratings of "Love Letter" have been declining continuously, as the MC of the show, Jiang Hudong also feels the pressure, especially Liu Zaishi and Kim Jidong, who are also known as the three national MCs of South Korea with him, are now very popular, Liu Zaishi's "Infinite Challenge" has completely entered the regular after the song festival, and now the ratings of the show are red, and "Star Admiralty" hosted by Kim Jidong is also popular now, but Jiang Hudong is also popular after ending the recording of "NRGHousehold", It was originally the peak of popularity. But because there is no new show, he can only gnaw on such an old book as "Love Letter", which is now declining, so how can he not be in a hurry.

Li Junxi could only persuade: "Brother Hudong! Brother Zhong Min didn't mean it, it was just an accident! ”

Jiang Hudong was stunned for a moment, shook his head with a wry smile: "Junxi! Don't get me wrong, I didn't mean to blame Zhong Min, I was angry with the people in their company, obviously when I went home this morning. I was not notified of my injuries until the afternoon, which caught me off guard, and it was already a little difficult to find a guest again. It's enough for me to have to redesign the script now, but Jun-hee! This time, thankfully, you have time. Otherwise, this episode of the show will really be over! ”

Lee Jun-hee only knew. Why Jiang Hudong was so worried, I also knew why Jiang Hudong was so anxious when he called him just now.

With Jiang Hudong's connections in the entertainment industry, even if there are guests who can't appear temporarily, it is not difficult to find a new guest at all.

"That's it! Brother Hudong! At this time, don't say those words, I'm also ready, and when I record later, if there is a problem, Brother Hu Dong will use me! ”

Jiang Hudong was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly said, "No! No way! Jun-hee! I know you mean well, but this matter is absolutely not good, don't worry, even if there is no Zhongmin, there is not Shin Zhenghuan! ”

Li Junxi's "use me" is actually to let Jiang Hudong find jokes on him, in the show, this role is generally played by funny artists, but Li Junxi asked Jiang Hudong to use him directly for the sake of the show.

Although in the show, if Li Junxi is made ugly, it will definitely have a good stimulus to the ratings, but Li Junxi's current identity makes Jiang Hudong have some scruples, especially the image of Li Junxi has always been very positive, Jiang Hudong can't ruin Li Junxi's image for the sake of the show, after all, Li Junxi can come to help, and he is already very grateful.

"It's okay! Brother Hudong! I also just want to develop into the variety show industry! ”

Jiang Hudong smiled and said, "What are you kidding, Junxi!" You are now a national idol of South Korea, both singing and acting skills are first-class, how can you think of developing towards the variety show industry! ”

Li Junxi smiled: "Brother Hudong, I'm not joking with you, I really have this plan!" Singing, acting, there are still some limitations, in South Korea, naturally there is no problem, but overseas, it may not work, variety shows are different, Brother Hudong! It's not like you don't know how popular Korean variety shows are in Asia right now, and if I have the chance, I really want to try it! ”

Jiang Hudong was also a little moved by what Li Junxi said, he suddenly thought that Li Junxi had a lot of ideas, and now he happened to encounter a bottleneck in his career, if Li Junxi could come up with a good idea again, maybe it could help him get out of the current predicament.

"Jun-hee! Do you have any ideas? ”

Li Junxi said: "If you have an idea, I really have it now, but I recently watched the American show "Survival in the Wilderness" and got some inspiration!" ”

"Survival in the Wilderness" is not small in South Korea, and Jiang Hudong naturally knows: "If that's the case, isn't it a little cruel, and the cycle of the show is too long, I'm afraid few people will be willing to participate!" ”

Lee Jun-hee explained: "Of course it won't be copied, my current idea is that I can make this show a little easier, but it can't be like a tour, so let's do it!" Brother Hudong! If you're interested, we'll find a time to talk. ”

Jiang Hudong heard Li Junxi say this, although he was very interested in Li Junxi's not very mature idea, but he could only hold back his curiosity and look at the time. was about to start filming, Jiang Hudong hurriedly checked the script with Li Junxi, what he was designing just now was how to transfer the topic to Li Junxi.

After the two of them were right for a while, a staff member of the program team came in and informed them that they were going to start filming.

"Let's go! Jun-hee! ”

Lee Jun-hee followed Jiang Hudong to the filming venue, the other male guests had already arrived, and the revised version of "Love Letter" was a little different from the past, before the show started, the male and female guests didn't know who each other was.

Lee Jun-hee stood backstage with other male guests. Waiting for Jiang Hudong's call, as a senior and a popular male artist, Li Junxi is naturally going to come to the finale, and the last one will take the stage.

Jiang Hudong is already making opening remarks: "The season of love is here again~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"

Li Junxi, a variety show newcomer who has debuted for nearly ten years, couldn't help but admire Jiang Hudong's free performance on the stage.

Although the show "Love Letter" has declined, this is not Jiang Hudong's responsibility, mainly because the potential of the show has been tapped. And Jiang Hudong's hosting skills not only did not degenerate, but became more sophisticated.

It is not an exaggeration to put the title of national MC on Jiang Hudong's body.

In South Korea, there may be people who don't know who the president is. But almost no one doesn't know who Jiang Hudong is?

He is a well-known "national MC" in South Korea, and his experience is like a textbook of Korean variety shows, recording the gradual prosperity of Korean variety shows, and Jiang Hudong, a wrestling champion. Since entering the showbiz, there is no shortcut, and it is completely my own hard work step by step. finally became the top host in the Korean variety show industry.

After stepping into the entertainment industry, Jiang Hudong debuted as a "funny artist", and the past wrestling awards did not bring him much convenience, and after ten years of fighting in the entertainment industry, he gradually developed his own style.

In 2003, "X-MAN" was launched, which is a new variety show that integrates talk shows, dances, competitive games, celebrity speed dating and other variety shows, inviting first-line stars as guests, led by two deputy hosts respectively, seven team members through games, dance, and eloquence, and then let the team's male and female star speed dating become partners to complete the group confrontation game, the core of the program is to find out the hidden "spy" through a series of games, that is, X-MAN.

In the program, a host and two deputy hosts are set up, the host is responsible for grasping the general direction of the program, and the deputy host must not only cooperate with the host's work, but also cooperate with the guests, try to highlight the characteristics of the guests, and most importantly, to create "jokes", it can be said that this is a very hard job, at least let Li Junxi take the role, he absolutely does not have this ability.

Jiang Hudong is a good co-host in "X-MAN", his performance is like a "comedian", his actions are exaggerated and funny, which brings out the charm of the guests, and at the same time, he is full of vision and has a very tacit understanding with the host.

Li Junxi still remembers that in "X-MAN", the most classic scene was in this year's German World Cup special, after the guests failed to play the role of "gorilla", the atmosphere was a little cold, at this time, the host Liu Zaishi came over with a look, Jiang Hudong understood it, and the action exaggerated as a "gorilla", which not only eliminated the embarrassment of the guests, but also pushed the atmosphere of the show to a climax.

It is precisely because of Jiang Hudong's active performance that he stood out among the deputy hosts and left a deep impression on the audience. As one of the most classic programs in the history of Korean variety shows, "X-MAN" has achieved high ratings and has also become the starting point of Kang Ho-dong and Yoo Jae-seok's path to "national MC".

Then in 2004, Jiang Hudong ushered in the most important opportunity in his life - "Love Letter", "Love Letter" is a star speed dating variety show that wins with romance, male and female guests show their charm through games, dances, etc., and finally complete the "speed dating".

The program has set up a lot of links, and the responsibilities of the host include grasping the direction of the program, ensuring that the program does not deviate from the theme and proceeds smoothly, so that the male and female guests can play their own charm in the game, and make the program full of laughter.

Jiang Hudong not only fulfilled these duties, but also established his unique hosting style, that is, exaggerated movements, passionate language and hearty laughter.

In each episode of the program, after Jiang Hudong danced and recited the opening remarks passionately, the atmosphere of the program immediately became cheerful and lively, when introducing the appearance of the guests. Jiang Hudong praised each guest "through the cracks", highlighting the charm of the guests, in the whole game link, because of his laughter throughout, so there was no "cold scene", under his hostship, the show has been carried out smoothly.

"Love Letter" is Jiang Hudong's first independent hosting and successful program, although the success of the show is largely due to the popularity and charm of the guests, but. Jiang Hudong also contributed to it. "Love Letter" not only made Jiang Hudong popular and many guests, but also made audiences outside South Korea begin to like Korean variety shows.

During this period, competitive games and celebrity speed dating became a magic weapon for variety shows to attract attention, with the help of the popularity of idol stars, variety shows increased ratings, and idol stars used variety shows as a platform to increase their appearance rate and increase their popularity.

This win-win model. Let more "Hallyu" stars enter the field of vision of overseas fans, and also make variety shows another way to spread "Hallyu" after Korean dramas, in this sense, Korean variety shows at this time. He made an important contribution to the export of Korean entertainment culture, and Kang Hudong began to form his exaggerated hosting style during this period, and his exaggerated actions and language made the audience remember him firmly.

Unfortunately, "X-MAN" is no longer on the air. Although "Love Letter" is still persistent, everyone can see that this show has come to an end. It's not far from going off the air.

With Jiang Hudong's introduction, the male guests appeared one by one and accepted the verdict of the female guests, after the revision, the male guests will be divided into two groups for a duel, namely the King team and the bomb team.

Lee Jun-hee took a sneak peek backstage, and there were a total of six female guests present today, namely actor Jiang Jinghua, COOL's female lead singer Cha Yuli, funny artist Zhao Jinglin, and Suger members Ayumi and Lu Huisheng, as well as former Suger member Huang Jingyin.

Among the six female guests, if you want to say familiar, there is only COOL's female lead singer Che Yuli, when they were active together, they could often meet in the song show, speaking of which, Cha Yuli is still Li Junxi's direct predecessor.

The other is Ayumi and Huang Jingyin, who have both recorded variety shows together before, but they are not familiar with it.

The male guests who have already appeared have been assigned to the King team and the bomb team respectively after showing their charm, so far, the King team has TIM, Choi Bili, Choi Siyuan, Xia Seok Jin, there is only one position left, the bomb team is very peculiar here, it is natural for Yoon Jung-so to be assigned to the bomb team, but Kim Hee-cheol, who debuted as a beautiful man, was also assigned to the bomb team, which made Lee Jun-hee a little surprised.

Immediately afterwards, Han Geng appeared on the stage, a wonderful solo dance, but after all, it was the first time to participate in "Love Letter", and he couldn't help but look a little nervous.

"Han Geng is SJ's Chinese BOY, I just watched his performance, it's really exciting! So, what will his fate be in the end? ”

As soon as Jiang Hudong's words fell, Ayumi, who was sitting in the guest seat, suddenly asked: "There are still a few male guests who have not appeared, Jiang Hudong XI!" Can you tell us about it? ”

Jiang Hudong looked embarrassed, but after hesitating for a moment, he said: "Among the men who have not yet appeared, they are the crown prince of the song industry, the top K-pop star, the ancestor idol, and the strange chicken!" ”

When the first two were introduced, the female guests couldn't help cheering, but at the end, everyone couldn't help laughing.

Strange chicken!

The way this introduction is introduced is too vague, and it is estimated that anyone can guess who the "strange chicken" is.

Shin Jeong-hwan, who was in the background, was also speechless.

Perhaps because of the expectations for the guests in the back, when voting for Han Geng, the female guests hesitated, and finally 2:4, Han Geng was assigned to the bomb team.

When Han Geng saw this result, he was also speechless for a while, Jin Xi saw it, and immediately stepped forward and pulled Han Geng away: "Let's go!" These women are unreasonable! ”

Ayumi in the audience hurriedly said: "It's not that OPPA is not excellent, but we are looking forward to the guests in the back more!" ”

Speaking of anticipation, the strange chicken appeared, and after a flurry of dances, the female guests unanimously sent him to the bomb team.

Now there is only one last spot left for each team, and the first to appear is Ryan, who debuted as the captain of the Paran group last year, and now it is the time to be popular, and as soon as he appears, he immediately attracts a burst of screams from female guests.

Li Junxi looked at it and couldn't help but feel as if he was in some danger.

Sure enough, at the time of voting, the four female guests gave Ryan the last spot on the King team.

Although Lee Jun-hee didn't mind, the dignified NRG's soul was assigned to the bomb team, which still made him a little speechless.

Jiang Hudong also looked at the female guests present with a wicked smile at this time: "Now let's welcome the ~~~~~~~~ that I thought the male guests were on the stage" (to be continued......)
