Chapter Seventy-Five: Calculation
In the center of the oval stage, which is half a finger taller than the surrounding area, stands a solid blue arch more than 3 meters high that resembles a screen.
The surface of the arch is inlaid with countless coin-sized colorful lanterns, forming a blurred human face with eight teeth smiling and showing it.
Directly below the smiling face is a brown wide-backed office chair with a desk in front of it.
On the left and right sides of the desk, there are three comfortable beige single sofas and a multi-person bread sofa of the same color.
Three or five meters in front of the sofa, six or seven groups of professional cameras form a fan, half-surrounding the stage.
Outside the 'encirclement' is a staircase-like live auditorium, which can accommodate hundreds of lucky lottery winners to watch the whole process of the live broadcast.
This is the 'Tiantian Show' studio, the scene is very large, the specifications are very high, but the scene layout is a little old-aged.
As the absolute 'king' of this studio, Li Tian stood in front of the No. 1 camera position in the middle of the camera group, looking at his 'territory', his face was full of gloom.
This entertainment anchor, who has won the 'Haijing Golden Microphone' award 3 times, is just over 40 years old, short in stature, and has ordinary facial features, but he is born with an indescribable aura.
Laughter is contagious, but when you put your face on a straight face, this contagion can turn into a heavy sense of oppression.
And Liu Bo, the director of 'Tiantian Show' who is now standing next to Li Tian, is personally experiencing this oppression.
The photographers, drama crews, and service personnel on the side clearly felt that a terrifying depression was forming, and they all quietly retreated a few steps away.
Liu Bo didn't have such a good life, so he could only rely on the 'immunity' he had cultivated more than 10 years ago in cooperation with Li Tian, and said stubbornly: "Brother Tian, although the logistics department rejected the opinion of reinstalling the studio.
But Minister Zhao said that as long as the budget above is relaxed a little, it will be prioritized..."
"Lao Liu, how old are you, and you are still so naΓ―ve. Li Tian interrupted Liu Bo's words with a cold face, "The budget just made up before the Spring Festival, now I won't reinstall the studio for us, and wait until the Year of the Monkey."
He's just a deception.
It's better to say than to sing, but in fact, don't you think that the ratings of our show are declining, and we may be cut, and I am afraid of being scolded by the high-level, so I dare not increase investment.
I think when I was in the middle of the day, those guys in the logistics department couldn't wait to reinstall the studio for us 8 times a year and eat kickbacks, but now it's like this, what a grandson. β
Recalling the glorious days of the past, Liu Bo felt uncomfortable, sighed and said: "Brother Tian, in fact, your fame is still there, but my brain can't keep up with the situation."
Maybe it's a new director..."
"What kind of are you talking about," Li Tian interrupted Liu Bo's words angrily, "We have cooperated since I debuted to host the first show, and until today, no wind and waves have passed."
Now it's just a little hurdle, how can you bear it.
Put one hundred and eighty hearts, I have to have my Li Tian, everything is fine.
Don't they just want ratings, and I'll just raise the ratings.
Writer Xu, come over and go to my place with Lao Liu to discuss and discuss.
Tonight, we must make a comeback and get the 'big move' out." β
Interview talk shows, on the surface, seem to be a few people getting together and chatting casually, the questions asked by the actual host, the grasp of the rhythm of the program, and the answers of the guests are all within a pre-set framework.
And this framework was designed by the writers of the program team, and he is also the heaviest person in the team in addition to the host and director.
Zhang Jiao finished putting on makeup in the dressing room, changed into a performance costume, and waited for a long time, but he didn't see the writer come to read the book.
He didn't understand these things himself, but Wu Qian obviously did his homework beforehand, and whispered with a calm face: "The situation is not right."
The live show at half past 10 is now at 10:15, and no one has brought the book written by the writer yet.
The program team must be playing some kind of moth.
Luckily, we're prepared. β
Zhang Jiao smiled slightly, did not make a sound, and after waiting for a while, a staff member invited him into the studio, arranged the seats, and began the final preparations before the live broadcast.
In this issue of the daily show, in addition to Zhang Jiao, five guests were also invited, two men and three women.
One of the two male guests is the idol Xiaosheng Ge Yangyang, who just graduated from Luyang University of the Arts, and the other is Du Shan, a middle-aged representative of Luyang's entertainment industry.
The three female guests are Ouyang Youer, the lead singer and appearance of the idol group 'Crisis Girl', Zheng Shanshan, a light mature female star who has just turned 30, and Cai He, a veteran actor known as Lu Yang's 'national mother'.
In terms of the number of guests on talk shows, 6 has reached the limit, and no matter how experienced Li Tian is, it will be difficult to take care of the performance effect of each participant.
In terms of the weight of the guests, except for Zhang Jiao, a sudden Internet celebrity theater actor, who is the first time to be 'electrocuted', everyone else is a serious star who can often be seen in movies and television, and the camp is extremely strong.
It can be seen that 'Tian Tian Xiu' is dying this time, or he is trying his best to reverse the decline of the determination.
According to the customary rules of TV programs, male guests sit on a single sofa, and female guests sit on a multi-person sofa.
According to Zhang Jiao's age or coffee position, he should be assigned to the position farthest or in the middle from the host.
But in fact he sat next to the host.
Everyone else is mixed in the same circle, no matter whether the friendship is true or false, good or bad, they all know each other, and they naturally greet each other when they meet.
Zhang Jiao, who is only a theater actor, looks out of place.
At this time, according to common sense, as the host, Li Tian should introduce Zhang Jiao to other guests, so that he can integrate into the atmosphere as soon as possible and perform better during the live broadcast.
But Li Tian watched Zhang Jiao laughing there and didn't do anything.
After a while, it was 10:30 and everything was ready.
In director Liu Bo's '3, 2, 1, begins. After the countdown, cheerful music played.
Facing the No. 1 machine, a bright smile appeared on Li Tian's face, and he said loudly: "A hard and happy day is coming to an end.
Dear audience friends, are you ready to enjoy the delicious entertainment of 'Everyday Show' before going to bed, which will make you laugh and think deeply?
I am your faithful friend Li Tian, and I will be with Ms. Cai He, one of Lu Yang's most respected actresses...", introduced the guests.
Immediately afterwards, Li Tian immediately said a joke, "Everyone knows that I have a pastoral dog called Lao Mi."
Yesterday was its birthday, I wanted to give it a new look to celebrate its birthday, so I took it to a high-end pet grooming shop to shave, but the little sister at the front desk asked me for 5 gold yuan.
I was stupid and told her, "I'm going to get a haircut that's four silver horns."
No matter how advanced a dog is, it won't shave 5 gold yuan!"
As a result, she said a truth, which made me speechless, "But you don't bite when you get a haircut, of course it's cheap." β
It made the audience laugh.
