After the second episode of "Incredible Journey" was broadcast, although the ratings ranked first in the same period, it was obviously not comparable to the first episode.

Not only the ratings, but also the online response and topic level were not as popular as the first episode.

The show is the same, but whether the guests have jokes or whether they can create jokes will make the show completely different in terms of excitement.

In the previous episode, Lin Yanran did not try to be funny or create memes, but he is a treasure in himself. The show was a huge success and attracted many passers-by to watch.

However, when this group of people watched the second episode, they realized that Lin Yanran was actually just a flying guest and not a permanent resident.

Therefore, after he was absent from this episode, the audience felt that something was missing, so they left messages on the official Weibo account of the program team, expressing their wish that the program team would invite Lin Yanran back.

Why do these directors in the entertainment industry make variety shows?

Of course, it is to make a hit variety show and become the number one variety show director in the domestic entertainment industry!

Now that Lin Yanran is so compatible with their show, it is simply the magic formula to guarantee ratings.

Even if the audience doesn't leave comments, he will try his best to get Lin Yanran to continue participating in a few episodes!

After the trick was successful, Zhang Shanfeng proudly sent a message to his good friend Song Yingming to show off.

Zhang Shanfeng: Lao Song, I'm borrowing your time for two days to boost the ratings

Song Yingming, whose hair is getting thinner and thinner as he is busy preparing for the finale of "Super Idol", silently clicked the option to add the other party to the blacklist after seeing this.

But Zhang Shanfeng was like a worm in Song Yingming's stomach, and he immediately sent a warning.

Zhang Shanfeng: Don’t block me (dog head)

Song Yingming: ...

Tsk.

This cunning middle-aged man with even less hair than me!!!

"Director Song, please see if there is anything else that needs to be revised."

Xiao Li from the program planning team handed Song Yingming a copy of the program schedule to be recorded tomorrow.

Song Yingming glanced at the process chart, imagining Zhang Shanfeng's boasting tone in his head, and suddenly an idea flashed in his mind.

He pointed to one of the processes and said, "Change the content of this tutor interaction session."

After saying that, he told the other party his thoughts.

"Super Idol" has entered its final stage, and the competition for voting and debut positions has become fierce.

During this last period of time, the production team put almost all of their focus on the trainees, so there were relatively few recordings and shots of the mentors.

In the previous few episodes, it is rare to see a mentor like Lin Yanran who became famous by following an unconventional path.

After all, in this kind of talent show, the mentors only serve to add icing on the cake, and the biggest highlight is still the trainees.

Therefore, in the last two episodes, the production team focused the camera on the remaining 28 trainees, giving them, as well as each trainee's fans, time to vote for their final chance to debut.

The final elimination performance will no longer be conducted in the form of a PK between mentor groups. The program team will test the final results of the trainees' training during this period.

Therefore, the third public performance will be performed entirely by the trainees themselves, and the mentors will no longer intervene to help.

However, although the mentors have nothing to do with the final performance, there will be a collaboration stage between the trainees and the mentors as the opening performance on the debut night.

The finals are approaching, and today the program team gathered all the mentors together to finalize the grouping for this mentor collaboration stage.

Lin Yanran arrived quite early, but did not go to record the show immediately. Instead, she went to watch Ultraman first.

After he moved, he wanted to bring Ultraman home.

However, the staff of the program crew told him that a nearby resident had contacted them, saying that their dog was lost and looked very much like Ultraman, and they had to wait until they returned from their trip to come back in person to confirm whether it was the same dog, so they asked him to wait for two days.

When Lin Yanran was nearly twenty meters away from Ultraman's little house, Ultraman came running to greet him.

The dog's expression is very lively and happy.

"I brought you a new toy."

After saying that, Lin Yanran circled the chewing gum toy he brought for Ultraman around its head.

Ultraman seemed to particularly like this bone-shaped toy. His little head followed Lin Yanran's hand and turned several circles.

"Woo woo woo, ow ow."

The excited Ultraman stretched out his little paws, wishing he could catch it and play with it right away, but the malicious Lin Yanran refused to give it to him.

"Go pick it up for me."

Seeing that Ultraman was extremely anxious, Lin Yanran teased it for a long time before throwing the toy away.

Ultraman's eyes were fixed on the toy, and he ran out like the wind almost the moment Lin Yanran threw it out.

A few seconds later, it brought the toy back and placed it at Lin Yanran's feet, wagging its tail to show off to Lin Yanran.

"Little clever ghost."

Lin Yanran reached out and touched Ultraman's head as a reward.

Ultraman especially liked Lin Yanran to touch it. He squinted his eyes and rubbed his head against the palm of Lin Yanran's hand with great enjoyment.

Lin Yanran played with Ultraman for a while, but the alarm on her cell phone rang.

"I'm going to record a show."

When Ultraman saw Lin Yanran was about to leave, a pitiful look suddenly appeared in his big black eyes.

It put its little paws on Lin Yanran's hand to prevent it from leaving.

"When I come back from recording the show in a few days, if no one claims you, I'll take you home, okay?"

Lin Yanran touched Ultraman's head again to comfort it, and the other party reluctantly withdrew his claws.

As usual, after watching Lin Yanran leave, Ultraman returned to his own cabin to play with his new toys.

It had just been playing for a while when someone stopped in front of its hut.

Ultraman stopped his hand movements sharply, then looked outside vigilantly, and quickly retreated a few steps to the innermost part of the hut.

However, its movement was still a beat slow.

A hand reached into its little house and slapped it quickly and hard across the face.

Ultraman curled up in pain and whimpered miserably.

But outside its hut, a cold voice was heard.

"A dog is a dog, why pretend that he can't lick people."

After washing her hands, Lin Yanran went to the studio.

When the staff saw him, they immediately came up to him and told him in advance about the procedures for today.

"By the way, Teacher Yanran, today's tutor interaction session may require some talent performances."

There will be interactive sessions with the mentors every time she comes to record the show, and Lin Yanran is used to it.

"Do you prepare your own talent? Are there any specific requirements?"

"There are no requirements. The director has already arranged the activities in advance. You just need to follow them when the time comes."

After the staff member finished speaking, he quickly explained to Lin Yanran to reassure him, "These shouldn't be difficult, don't worry."

After the staff explained these things, Lin Yanran went backstage to put on makeup.

Soon the director team called all the mentors and trainees to the recording hall.

Different from the grand occasion of the first recording, when there were 60 trainees, the hall felt a bit crowded when everyone sat together, but now it seemed extremely spacious.

After more than three months of competition, only the last 28 people are left.

The trainees stepped into the studio again, and everyone had some emotion in their eyes.

In the near future, these 28 people will separate and each embark on a different life.

"Dear trainees, this will be your last group recording activity before your performance."

Song Yingming, who was standing at the edge of the stage, waited until everyone was seated in their respective seats before turning on the microphone.

The trainees, who were already feeling sad because they felt that there were fewer people, began to feel reluctant when they heard Song Yingming mention that this was the last group activity.

Although they had many frictions with each other during the competition, they also had a hard time practicing and the pressure of the competition was so great that they collapsed countless times.

But when I really walked to the final stage and thought that this was really the last time, the things I had experienced, when I recalled them now, were bitter but with a hint of sweetness.

These words aroused the reluctance and touching emotions of many trainees.

Song Yingming looked down and scanned everyone, then said seriously, "So we must cherish this opportunity."

After hearing this, everyone thought that Song Yingming was definitely going to do some sentimental drama next.

Some trainees have more developed tear glands, and their tears are ready, just waiting for him to finish speaking before they start to flow.

However, Song Yingming, who always plays by his own rules, suddenly laughed in a sly way, "So for the last group activity, we have to do something different."

When everyone heard what Song Yingming said, they felt something was strange and immediately looked at him curiously.

"What's different, Director Song?"

Several extroverted and naughty trainees put their hands to their mouths to amplify their voices and asked Song Yingming loudly.

Song Yingming directed his gaze towards the instructors, guiding everyone to look towards them, and then said, "In the previous episodes, the instructors watched the trainees' performances and competitions."

"So today..." Song Yingming paused here and deliberately left a blank.

After hearing this, if the trainees still couldn’t guess what Song Yingming wanted to say, they would be fools.

So the next second, screams broke out from the trainees' seats.

“Wow wow wow~~”

"Are you going to let us watch the teachers' performance???"

"Director Song did a great job!!"

"Teacher Tang, let's do a live show!!"

"I want to see Teacher Yanran's performance!!! Director, please arrange for him to be the first to appear!!"

"Director Song, you look so handsome today!!"

When Song Yingming heard the words "Director Song, you are so handsome", he touched his sparse hair and said confidently: "Thank you, no need to praise me so loudly, I am very handsome, I know it."

As expected, Song Yingming's shamelessness made everyone laugh.

After achieving the desired effect, Song Yingming put away the smile on his face and began to get into the main topic of today's recording, "Next, let's have a mentor talent show."

Before Song Yingming announced it, the mentors actually knew the general process but not the specific content.

Now hearing Song Yingming mention it, Lin Yanran couldn't help but look up at him, wanting to know what he was going to do today.

After Song Yingming finished speaking, ten projects immediately popped up on the big screen behind him.

1. Divine Comedy Medley

2. Cute 10-shot

3. Dance to the theme song of "Super Idol"

4. You draw and I guess

5. Cat Games

6. On-site creation

7. Acting cute and coquettish

8. Cross-dressing

…

Lin Yanran looked through these mini-games one by one and found that although some of them were not very suitable, the overall difficulty was actually lower than he had imagined.

After scanning through several games, Lin Yanran was more interested in "Guess What You Draw" and decided to choose this one.

However, who would have known that Song Yingming, a blind box enthusiast, would come up with another lottery box this time.

Seeing the box, Lin Yanran knew that there would be another lottery in this performance.

As expected, Director Song is still the same Director Song.

Just as Lin Yanran sat down and prepared to draw the lot, Song Yingming hugged his lottery box tightly in his arms.

"Do you think I'm going to draw lots again this time?"

Song Yingming had an expression that showed he had seen through everyone's little thoughts, and his eyes were so smiling that only a slit remained.

He shook his head. "You guys can guess my tricks so easily?"

Trainees: …

Mentors: …

When Lin Yanran heard this, she felt something was wrong and quickly looked up at Song Yingming again.

The other party looked at the trainees and announced word by word, "What each mentor will perform this time will be decided by the trainees' vote! Each mentor will perform two projects, and those who fail to complete them will be punished!"

After explaining the rules, Song Yingming quickly said, "You can choose what you want to see!" and then quickly slipped off the stage.

Song Yingming ran so fast that no one could react at first.

As a result, when they understood why, the trainees on the scene burst into excited screams.

If he had stayed one more second, Director Song, who came up with this bad idea, would have been killed by the eyes of several instructors!

"Stimulate!"

"Director Song, you are awesome!!"

"Director Song, you have changed! You are no longer the Director Song who was full of tricks before."

"Director Song has become even more cunning!!"

“I love it!!”

The trainees were obviously very satisfied with the way this performance came about. They screamed and clapped, and had already begun secretly discussing how to pair up the teachers.

However, the happier the trainees are, the more nervous the mentors become.

After learning that the trainees would vote on the performance content, Lin Yanran, who had never been afraid of anything before, felt a tingling sensation on her scalp for the first time.

This guilty feeling and uneasiness comes from the two options on the screen: ten cute consecutive photos and acting coquettishly and cutely.

It wasn't just Lin Yanran who felt a chill down her spine. Han Zhe and Pei Luo, who were also present, had all kinds of weird expressions on their faces after hearing this.

For the first time, the three men looked at each other in tacit understanding, and saw a look of worry and anxiety in each other's eyes.

"Where is Director Song now?" Han Zhe couldn't help but ask.

"Hiding." Pei Luo continued, and then lifted up his sleeves on both sides.

Lin Yanran smiled and nodded, and secretly clenched her fists.

The three men had fierce looks on their faces and all wanted to beat Song Yingming up.

After giving the mentors some time to prepare themselves mentally, Song Yingming sneakily stood on the edge of the stage again.

Because Gu Siye, who arrived late, also happened to arrive at this time.

He had a schedule conflict today, so he was a little late.

But he arrived just in time.

As soon as he sat down, Song Yingming slid to his side and asked, "Teacher Gu, do you want to join us?"

Although Gu Siye was late, he was able to see the live broadcast in the backstage and naturally knew what had happened.

After hearing Song Yingming's words, he didn't say a word, but just raised his eyelids and looked at Song Yingming, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

Although Song Yingming was hoping for a lucky break, he also included Gu Siye's performance in the plan.

But I knew that this arrogant guy would definitely not agree. Seeing his expression, I immediately switched to plan B and said what I had planned a long time ago, "Teacher Gu, if you don't want to participate, just be a judge."

After saying that, he immediately handed the rating card with several grades of ABCDF printed on it to Gu Siye.

After Gu Siye took it, he picked up the four BCDF cards and raised his eyebrows slightly, "Do you need these four? Who do you want me to offend?"

The trainees laughed out loud as they watched Gu Siye so ruthlessly expose Song Yingming's conspiracy.

Song Yingming is not afraid of anything for the sake of popularity and ratings. He smiled and spread his hands, "There is no other way. The program budget is tight, and there are only a few rating cards left. Teacher Gu, you can use them as you like."

After everything was arranged here, Lin Yanran and the other three mentors were called to the backstage.

The trainees who remained in the studio picked up their voting machines and began to vote for the mentors to choose the programs.

Lin Yanran sat on the sofa, closed her eyes, and silently recalled the options she had just considered.

I hope the trainees won’t go too far and choose some normal performance content for him.
