In the following days, the nights in Hong Kong Island seemed to be completely ignited by "Supermarket Wars".
Whenever the prime time clock strikes, more than 90% of households with televisions will see ATV's vibrant program logo flashing on the screen.
It is like a huge magnet, firmly attracting the attention of the whole city.
There is no way, the format of the show "Supermarket Wars" is really too novel.
Furthermore, Xiaolin Tianwang also gave Liu Rumeng and Lu Ruirong a brilliant idea. That was to draw and announce the lucky users who would participate in the next episode of "Supermarket Wars" in the previous episode, just like a lottery draw.
In this way, a certain number of lucky users who will be eligible for "zero-yuan purchase" in the next period will be drawn at the beginning, middle and end of the event.
Hey! This means that all users who recharge and register as members at Wellcome Supermarket have the possibility of "winning" during these three time periods every day.
Who wouldn’t want to witness the moment they “win” with their own eyes?
This one step alone is enough to make countless families hold their breath and their hearts beat faster.
After each list is announced, in every corner of Hong Kong Island, you can hear the cheers of a family or the sighs of regret from those who missed out. These have become the background music of countless families' dinner time.
It can even be said that the memory of watching Asia Television's "Supermarket Wars" with family during dinner time every night and hoping that their family will be selected will become a common youth memory for this generation of young people growing up in Hong Kong Island as "Supermarket Wars" continues to be broadcast.
However, the charm of this program itself is not at all overshadowed by the huge suspense of each "prize draw".
Every contestant's challenge is full of challenges and unexpected jokes.
You know what, activities like this, as well as the "Wisdom and Courage" type variety shows that were once very popular on TV in later generations, often look easy, but it is difficult to actually do them in person.
This also makes such programs and contestants particularly controversial.
The audience in front of the TV always feel pity and regret, and even laugh at the players for not performing well. They fantasize in their minds that if they go up, they will definitely perform better than them, and of course they will get those high-value goods.
Seeing these contestants running, choosing, and making mistakes among the dazzling array of shelves also created countless hilarious moments.
Those clumsy mistakes, exaggerated expressions, and even arguments between contestants' friends over strategic differences in front of the camera have become the talk of the town.
There were even several contestants who were more photogenic. Because of their outstanding personal performances on the show, they were noticed by scouts and signed with agencies to become artists.
Wow! Once this incident was reported by Asia Daily, Supermarket Wars became even more popular.
And the most rare thing is that "Supermarket Wars" is not just purely entertaining.
The program team carefully captured the pre-match interviews and the post-match interviews about excitement or loss, and unearthed many heartwarming stories of ordinary people in Hong Kong Island.
Maybe it's about buying urgently needed items for family members, maybe it's about helping strangers in need, or maybe it's the true feelings that burst out between family members under pressure. These stories give the program an extra touch of warmth and depth beyond just laughter.
The general public can easily see their own shadows in them, and also feel the fireworks and human touch of life.
This has resulted in a seemingly simple entertainment game show having its connotation and value unexpectedly elevated in the hearts of Hong Kong audiences.
Regarding this point, Lin Huowang also made special instructions based on later variety shows such as "The Voice of China", asking the host Lu Ruirong to deeply explore the "unique" stories of each participating user.
However, Lin Huowang still had some shame, so he did not deliberately arrange some people to make up some emotional and touching stories.
Because Lin Huowang knew that Hong Kong Island in this era had no shortage of these things. As long as Lu Ruirong used words to guide them to tell their inner stories and express their true feelings, there would definitely be stories that moved the entire Hong Kong Island.
For example, in one episode, under the bright lights of a supermarket, stood an old lady with a hunched back but neatly washed white clothes.
She rubbed her calloused hands awkwardly as she faced Lu Ruirong's microphone, her eyes filled with nervousness and a hint of indescribable anticipation.
In fact, in everyone's eyes, such a scavenger grandma, and the current scene, standing in such a supermarket with a wide range of goods, are so out of place.
It is precisely this sharp contrast that makes all the viewers in front of the TV more interested in this old lady.
"Grandma, congratulations on becoming the lucky user tonight! What do you most want to get in 61 seconds?" Lu Ruirong asked very gently.
When the old lady heard this, her lips trembled softly a few times, and her slightly cloudy eyes suddenly became tearful.
"I...I want the most expensive doll, the one on the highest shelf..."
There was a hint of sob in her voice, and then under Lu Ruirong's gentle guidance, she spoke intermittently about the fundamental reason why she wanted the doll.
She looks pretty much the same as what everyone sees, she is just an old lady who makes a living by picking up rubbish.
