Chapter 39: Earn 4 million by lying down
"Challenge the Limit", as one of the most well-known reality show variety shows in China, has been filmed for its ninth season, and its popularity is still not low.
In the early years, in the seasons that had just started, topics related to the show could often dominate the hot searches.
Many times, when you open the entertainment hot search list, half of the hot searches are the topics of the program "Challenge the Limit".
However, in recent years, with the increase of related competing programs, the departure of the older generation of main coffee guests, and the aesthetic fatigue of the audience, the number of hot searches on the show has decreased significantly.
But just after the latest episode of the program was broadcast, there was a topic in "Challenging the Limit" that rushed directly to the top of the hot search list!
However, this topic is not the topic of the "Challenge the Limit" program itself, but a food stall owner found by guests from the roadside in the new episode.
Li Yi.
In the show, in order to complete the task, the guests walked all over the streets and alleys, looking for food.
Following the perspective of the guests, the audience also visited the bustling streets of Yangcheng, appreciated the customs of Yangcheng, and also saw the rich food culture of Yangcheng.
After some searching, each guest found the best Yangcheng food in their minds.
Some people chose wonton noodles, some people chose roast goose, and some people chose roast pigeon.
Yang Shaoyue chose a beef noodle, and it was 20,000 beef noodles per piece.
This surprised the audience, and they quarreled directly on the barrage.
Some people questioned that Li Yi's [The World's Best Beef Noodles] was indiscriminately priced, and the cost of a serving of noodles was not that high at all.
But some viewers said that with the knife skills and cooking skills shown by Li Yi in the video, they are definitely at the top level.
And [The World's Best Beef Noodles] is a set meal, which also has a [Dengying Beef] and a [Qiankun Egg].
The difficulty of making these two pairings is not at all lower than that of beef noodles.
So it is understandable that such a package sells for 20,000 yuan.
However, no one who holds these two views can convince anyone, and they have fought from the barrage area to the comment area, and from the comment area to the cutting areas of major platforms.
As a result, the popularity of related topics has also quickly become popular.
20,000 pieces of beef noodles per piece, this kind of title itself has its own eye-catching effect.
And everyone's perception of value is also different, and arguments are inevitable.
Just like some people think that shoes with 30,000 yuan should be durable, and they will break if they can't walk a few steps.
But some people think that the kind of shoes of 30,000 yuan were originally placed in the car, and after getting in the car, they were changed to relax their feet, and the original design was that they could not walk long roads, and they could not complain about others if they were broken.
But whenever there is an argument, it attracts attention.
When someone pays attention, the traffic will naturally gather.
For the program side, as long as there is traffic, it is good.
"Challenge the Limit" has not been at the top of the hot search list for a long time.
This unexpected climb to the top, the program party was also pleasantly surprised.
So, in order to maintain the popularity, the program launched all publicity channels to fully promote the topic of 20,000 pieces of beef noodles.
And Li Yi also appeared in front of many netizens with the popularity of this topic and was known by netizens.
Some people disdain him, thinking that he is grandstanding and reaping the IQ tax.
But there are also those who think he has a special skill and want to see him.
Therefore, when Li Yi woke up early in the morning of the third day, he found that his live broadcast account had more than 100,000 followers out of thin air, and his private messages were about to explode.
The few videos he posted under his account had thousands of comments.
"You are the owner of the food stall that sold 20,000 pieces of beef noodles in "Challenge the Limit"?"
"Why do you dare to sell 20,000 yuan a noodle?"
"Good script, how much money did you stuff into the program team?"
"Let's get straight to the goods! Do you want to sell pre-made dishes? ”
Of all the comments, the most were questioning and mocking.
But in the comment area, the most praised hot comments are asking him about the practice of beef noodles.
"Is your beef noodle really made with pure beef? Can you add beef broth to make it so chewy? How does it work? ”
"I read the slice you explained the method of Qiankun eggs, and tried to make it, but after steaming, the crab roe inside will sink to the bottom, and when you peel the shell, it will break, how do you do it?"
"Worship the Great God! I'm a chef, and the heat control of the Lamp Shadow beef you made is too good! Can you make a teaching video? ”
"I've always heard of carved flowers on the meat, but this time I finally saw it with my own eyes, and I saw it for a long time."
"Do you sell your knives?"
Looking at the increasing comments and the private messages that kept popping up, Li Yi ignored them, and just replied to a private message from an old fan.
The old fan asked him why he didn't start broadcasting yesterday, and he explained, saying that he overslept yesterday and didn't get up.
After that, he quit the app.
The comments and private messages have stopped, but there are still dozens of missed calls and a dozen text messages in the notification bar.
Li Yi looked through it and found that it was basically all from former classmates and colleagues he knew during his internship.
Many of the remaining calls and messages came from Wang Tian.
Yesterday afternoon, Wang Tian called him several times.
Seeing that he didn't answer, Wang Tian sent a few more messages.
"Mr. Li, are you busy? Is it convenient to take the phone? ”
"Mr. Li, if you see the message, can you call me back? The show's desk has already replied. ”
"Mr. Li, you may not be able to answer the phone for the time being, so I will tell you about the situation on my side in the text message. I have already applied to the station, your salary is a little high, the station can be increased to 150,000 episodes, and after the show is recorded, there will be an additional 200,000 red envelopes, what do you think? ”
"Mr. Li, are you not satisfied with the salary? What is your expected price? Two hundred thousand? ”
"Mr. Li, I applied to the station again, and after my efforts, the station agreed to calculate the price according to your salary, 200,000 yuan in one phase, if you think you can, can you call me back?"
"Mr. Li? Are you there? ”
"Mr. Li, are there people from other stations who are in contact with you?"
"Mr. Li, if you have any conditions to mention, we can discuss it, and I will try my best to fight for it from Taili."
"Mr. Li, our Mango Satellite TV is still very sincere, if someone from other stations is contacting you, how much money they open, we will be 10% higher than them."
"Mr. Li, let's not go around in circles, in order to show the sincerity of our Mango Satellite TV, your salary, we will increase it directly to 300,000 per issue, if you think it's okay, just call me back." If not, then we can only look forward to the next cooperation. ”
Looking at Wang Tian's series of messages, Li Yi looked confused.
How could this eldest sister attack herself and take the initiative to increase the price all the way?
He looked at the phone and messages, and it seemed that no one from other TV stations contacted him.
So, he called Wang Tian back directly.
"Hello? Mr. Li, you finally called back. ”
On the other end of the phone, Wang Tian's tone was a little anxious: "Are you still satisfied with the salary price I mentioned to you in the text message?" ”
"It's okay, I'm satisfied."
Of course, Li Yi was satisfied.
He just slept and his salary tripled.
According to the content budget of a maximum of 20 issues, he is equivalent to earning an extra 4 million!
It was probably the most lucrative sleep he'd ever had.
"That's good."
Wang Tian seemed to breathe a sigh of relief: "Since this is the case, then I'll come to you to sign a contract!" Where are you in Yangcheng? ”
Li Yi told her the location of a nearby café, washed up, and went out.
But instead of going directly to the café, he found a law firm, hired a lawyer, and brought the lawyer to the café.
Wang Tian was already waiting for him there.
After seeing him, Wang Tian couldn't wait to take out the contract: "Mr. Li, you send me your ID number, and I will arrange for someone to book tickets for you." ”
"Don't worry, I'll look at the contract first."
Li Yi took the contract and looked through it.
"Urgent, very anxious, the show starts early, it will start next Monday, I have to ask someone to book tickets for you in advance, and I have to buy insurance for your baby bowl, I have to be busy with a lot of things!"
Hearing her explanation, Li Yi knew why she was in such a hurry to contact herself.
It turned out that the boot time was advanced.
But Li Yi was still not in a hurry, and still read the contract carefully, and then asked the lawyer to read it again.
Under the guidance of the lawyer, after revising several terms of the contract, Li Yi signed the contract.
After signing the contract, Wang Tian finally breathed a sigh of relief.
She got up with a smile and stretched out her hand to Li Yi: "Mr. Li, I have to go first, I have to go back to Taiwan for the noon plane, I will arrange for someone to send you your ticket information, let's see you in Beijing next Monday!" ”
After saying that, as soon as she turned around and took a few steps, she suddenly remembered something and walked back.
"I almost forgot, this is the final script, you can take a look at it first!"
She took out a thick stack of scripts, handed them to Li Yi, and then left in a hurry.
After settling the lawyer's fees, Li Yi took the script and went home.
The script is the script of the show, and it is something that every variety show will have.
Variety shows are similar to TV dramas, and scripts are a must-have.
In some variety shows, even which words the artist says and which stalk he says, he will write it clearly.
Fortunately, the script of "Chinese Restaurant" is not so framed.
At least for him, the chef, the requirements are relatively lenient.
There is information about the main coffee guest in the script, Li Yi looked through it, and saw a few acquaintances.
Huang Xiaoming, Zhao Jinmai, these are the two main guests.
In addition, there are two main coffee guests in the show, one of whom is the store manager and the first in line to the main coffee of this season's show, Liu Yifei.
