Chapter 7010: Extreme Challenge
If Pu Tong wants to find a show from his memory as a masterpiece of reality shows, then he will not hesitate to choose "Extreme Challenge".
Variety shows, many of which are fast-paced, inviting celebrities, and imitating content, are few original, even if there are some popular models, they often stimulate the desire to win and lose through fierce competitions, and quickly generate emotional bonds, but they are basically carried out in accordance with the rules, rarely change, and pay attention to fairness, justice and openness.
"Extreme Challenge" directly departs from the traditional textbook-style model, and turns out the not so bright side of real life for everyone to see, all participants do not believe in the norms, and slowly become a way to play outside the rules, with no taboos......
A self-created reality show in China, "Extreme Challenge" can be regarded as an extremely outstanding program, whether it is the program arrangement, concept, or the personal characteristics of the fixed members, they all give full play to the points they are good at.
This is a variety show that Pu Tong likes very much, it is not only funny, but also very deep, although the program team obviously has a script, but the direction of the show is always in the hands of several guests.
As the show says, the rules of their game are that there are no rules.
"Extreme Challenge" is the same as other variety shows, it has a large frame, but the direction of the show's story almost depends on the guests themselves, and every time there is a mistake, the program team can come back, and the excellent program team and excellent guests can cooperate to deduce this excellent show.
This show is not just funny and funny, in Pu Tong's opinion, the core of "Extreme Challenge" is quite deep.
Through the challenge of various tasks, the men's gang will always show a lot of philosophies outside the show, which deeply resonates and thinks among the audience.
Pu Tong's favorite thing is that the issue of Time Bridge is not only touching, but the helplessness of fate touched his heartstrings and made him feel a lot of emotion.
It's really hard to imagine that such a theme is actually from a variety show.
This issue is actually very similar to the "Slow Life Road" in the second season of "Extreme Challenge", the difference between the two is that although they are both experiencing life, the slow life road focuses on the birth of life and experiencing old age. And this issue explores a heavy topic that many variety shows are unwilling to dig into - life and inheritance.
The program team skillfully expresses life in an intuitive way, and everyone starts to move forward from their birth year and slowly meets the members of the men's gang. It's not like us in reality, under the arrangement of fate, we slowly get to know the friends and lovers in our lives.
The variety show was originally watched in a funny and relaxed mood, and after watching it, it can have some thinking and other higher-minded feelings, which makes people willing to reminisce.
This is especially true of reality shows, a short period of comedy creation sprint, creatives are easily hollowed out, so the life span of many shows is not too long, just watch the picture and have fun, few people will look back and taste it repeatedly.
But "Extreme Challenge" is not conventional, and to this day there are still people who go to watch it more or less, just because this show is classic enough and good-looking.
A variety show that can make people think, moved, and thankful is a very good show, which has enlightened the soul, has a little bit of a method, and has a blessing for the mind, even if it is a valuable work. Being able to be remembered and constantly reviewed has formed the criterion for judging classic works.
According to this assessment, the first four seasons of "Extreme Challenge" can be called classics, in Pu Tong's eyes, this show actually only has the first four seasons, and although the later seasons are not too bad, the overall quality is indeed incomparable with the previous ones!
The extreme challenge is here today, and I don't see the men's gang back then.
But there is no need to grieve for the departure of this show for a moment, because to this day, there are still many people who are revisiting the classics and rewatching the previous four seasons over and over again......
Come to think of it, this is the best way to commemorate it.
The works of excellent variety show directors can naturally stand the test of time.
The director of "Extreme Challenge" was able to make a program that could not be done at the same time, and dared to become the first variety show that paid attention to the people's livelihood of the society, it can be seen that he gave up money, heart, and affection, blurred the boundary between drama and life, and drove the actors and the audience to become part of the collective memory.
Xu Lei is already a mature variety show director, but compared with the director of "Extreme Challenge", he still has a lot of room for improvement.
Pu Tong asked him to start studying this show, which also means that he will learn more things, variety show directors also need to improve, at least the current Xu Lei can't bear the title of "Godfather" of domestic variety show directors.
Everyone is happy and convinced to call himself a teacher, he doesn't teach something anymore, and it's a bit of a secret, but how much he can learn has to be realized by Xu Lei!
Another reason is that although Xu Lei's current level is not enough, he is undoubtedly the most outstanding group of domestic reality show variety show directors, and there is no one else except him.
At least Xu Lei is still willing to learn and contact new things, which can be called a promising future, plus he has a good relationship with Pu Tong, which has undoubtedly become the best choice for coming up with these programs.
Like music, film and television works, Pu Tong doesn't want some excellent variety shows to be dusty and quietly rot in his memory.
As the saying goes, you never know which will come first, tomorrow or the accident, and if you say that you will send it one day, a lot of cultural treasures will not have time to take it out, isn't it a pity?
Just like that sketch said, the most painful thing in a person's life is that when a person dies, the money is not spent......
Therefore, Pu Tong still wants to find a few reliable people to restore these excellent works, and make them feel at ease early.
musical works, he has found a group of friends to be singing tools; game works, his company is ramping up the dosage; comic works, I also have a start-up comic studio, and I don't have a clue about variety shows and film and television works.
He sees Xu Lei's bones Qingqi, and he is the second apprentice under his name, wouldn't it be reasonable for him to be in charge of the variety show section?
"You said about this show with no rules, can you tell me in detail?"
It was the first time Xu Lei had heard such a novel variety show idea, and then he had an occupational disease, and he was eager to hear more details from Putong.
Reality shows will definitely have scripts and rules, it's just a matter of more and less, but the show Pu Tong said actually claims to have no rules at all, can he not be curious?
Not to mention as a variety show director, even as an audience, he has never seen this kind of show!
Pu Tong is going to let him do this show, so naturally he won't hide his secrets, but there are some things that can't be talked about clearly on the phone, not to mention that today is still a working day, and he has to go to school tomorrow, so naturally it is impossible to spend one night telling Xu Lei about this......
There is no need to be in a hurry, although the filming task of "Where Are You Going, Dad" has been completed, there are still some follow-ups to deal with, and it is not too late to plan a new show after he has completely dealt with the remaining problems of the previous show.
After hanging up the phone, Pu Tong only felt refreshed, he remembered that he had dabbled in all categories of works, but in comparison, the progress of film and television works was the slowest.
After all, he has found helpers in comics and variety shows, but in film and television scripts, he has always been the only one who is alone......
Pu Tong slapped his head, should he also find a helper to write the script?
