Chapter 202: Daily Time Management of a Scumbag
"Qinqin!"
Song Zhi walked towards Li Qin with a smile on his face and greeted her warmly: "Long time
no see!" Although he didn't like her, he still had to save face in front of so many people.
Besides, the progress bar on his side was almost finished, so there was no need to worry about this "defeat".
Li Qin was stunned for a moment, obviously a little surprised by Song Zhi's attitude.
However, she didn't show any strangeness at all, stood up naturally, and said with a smile: "Yes, I haven't seen you for a long time. The last time I went to Jingbei, I wanted to play with you."
She was just an ex-girlfriend. If he hadn't backed down at the last minute, he would have "galloped in Akina Mountain" now. What's there to care about.
The two girls hugged each other gently and chatted for a long time with "smiling faces", looking like normal friends reminiscing about the past.
Li Qin's character basically has no rival scenes with Jin Dong, Wang Ou and other leading actors, and they don't have much contact with each other.
Hu Ge, the only half "insider", happened to be absent today.
So everyone didn't think it was strange that the two of them were talking and laughing.
There wasn't much time for free chatting, and the program staff quickly handed out the script for recording.
Everyone checked the process, and there was no need for rehearsal, so they could just start recording.
As a long-established variety show that has been on the air for nearly 20 years, the current process of the base camp is basically fixed.
First, introduce yourself, then chat and interview, and finally play a few "team building games".
Except for the guests, there is basically no big difference in each episode.
This episode of "The Pretender" special is the same. Several leading actors completed their self-introductions with He Jiong's prompts, Xie Na's interruptions, and Wei Jia's cold jokes.
Then they sat in a row on the tiered seats on the side, and laughed when it wasn't their turn, and said a few words when they were cueed.
After the first few people finished speaking, the topic gradually shifted to Song Zhi. He Jiong asked a few routine questions, such as the feelings of the role, interesting stories of the crew, and which leading actor he had a better relationship with.
"Well, it's mainly Sister Ou, and Hu Ge and Teacher Liu Yijun." Song Zhi gestured to Wang Ou in the front row and said, "Because we don't have much interaction with everyone on the 'Mingtai Line', we don't see them very often during filming."
She hasn't been on many variety shows and doesn't have much experience, so she basically says whatever comes to mind and her answers are quite conventional.
Wei Jia, who was standing on the other side, suddenly grinned deliberately and said, "I saw in the plot that she and Li Qin have a lot of rival scenes. Didn't they say that it's because their relationship is not good?"
Song Zhi was stunned. She hadn't really thought about this question just now.
Because the relationship between the two is indeed not good.
But this is definitely not something she can say. She quickly waved her hands and said, "No, no, Qinqin and I have a pretty good relationship. Just now, uh..."
Without preparation, she really couldn't think of any good excuses for a while.
"It's like this, Xiao Zhi and I are very good friends. But in the plot, we belong to different camps, and our identities are also opposite to each other, so we talked about reducing some interactions when we were off stage just now, so as to avoid the audience being distracted when watching the plot later."
Seeing that Song Zhi was about to be embarrassed, Li Qin, who was sitting next to her, took the microphone and said.
After saying that, she also held her arm, looking like "close girlfriends".
Song Zhi didn't expect Li Qin to rescue her, but she immediately reacted, leaned towards her, and nodded repeatedly in response.
Fortunately, the hosts did not ask too many questions and continued the next process.
Seeing that the topic moved away from herself, Song Zhi finally breathed a sigh of relief.
However, in order to ensure that no flaws were found, she would circle around Li Qin from time to time throughout the next episode.
When the show was broadcast, the audience saw this scene, which further confirmed the setting that the two had a "good relationship".
Even as the two people's rival scenes in the play increased, some CP fans of "Cheng Jinyun X Yu Manli" appeared on the Internet, which made the two people who saw these secondary creation videos speechless for a long time.
Back to the present, the show started at noon and was recorded for four or five hours before it finally ended.
As the main MC of the show, He Jiong invited all the guests present to have dinner together. This has been his habit for so many years.
Of course, it is not mandatory. If anyone has something to do, just say so.
But generally, unless time does not allow, most guests will accept the invitation.
Especially for newcomers, He Jiong's connections and resources in the domestic entertainment circle are not as simple as a variety show host. Even if it is not used, it is necessary to leave a good impression.
Although they are all in the same industry, they belong to different circles after all, so the topic is mainly around the performance of the series.
When it comes to the plot, it is inevitable to mention the screenwriter.
"It turns out to be Mr. Meng from Arclight Film and Television." He Jiong smiled and said, "I was wondering if there was a suspenseful spy war script with such a high-quality plot."
Xie Na asked curiously, "Why, do you know him?"
"Mango TV is planning to launch several online variety shows next year, one of which is in cooperation with Arclight Film and Television. We have met twice before."
Speaking of which, although Base Camp is the "evergreen" and "ace variety show" of Mango Satellite TV, its ratings and popularity have been declining in recent years.
On the one hand, everything from PD to host is done step by step, with fixed links, fixed characters and similar mini-games in each episode.
Unless you meet a guest you like, many viewers are already a little tired of it.
On the other hand, various outdoor reality shows and new generation online variety shows have emerged in recent years, gradually replacing this honest studio variety show.
Just as online dramas are slowly replacing TV dramas, these new variety shows are also slowly replacing traditional TV programs.
To be honest, the most innovative and crisis-conscious person on Mango Satellite TV is the oldest He Jiong.
In addition to the several shows he still regularly hosts, he has also been trying new variety shows.
For example, Mango TV’s recently launched “Here Comes the Goddess” is an imitation of the Korean variety show “Heroes”, and “Please Take Care of My Fridge” also bought the copyright of the Korean variety show.
Of course, it also includes “Celebrity Detective”.
As a weathervane of the popularity of domestic entertainment, Mango TV has always been committed to doing whatever is popular.
For example, when Taiwan's idol dramas were popular, Mango TV liked to invite actors and artists there. Later, Korean entertainment became popular in recent years, and they began to take advantage of the Korean wave.
Then again, in the past two years, all satellite TV stations have basically been "crossing the river by feeling the way through Korean entertainment."
There are limitations to remaking TV dramas, but there are no limitations to variety shows.
Anyway, it's a similar format and game, just change a group of people. So for all the popular variety shows in Korean entertainment, the domestic entertainment side will dig up the copyright and the team together, and they are almost plundered bald.
The meal ended quickly and everyone said goodbye.
Li Qin was waiting for her assistant to drive, and suddenly felt someone approaching from behind.
Looking back, it was Song Zhi.
"Thank you for the recording today."
"Nothing, it's not just your business. There's no need to think too much about this kind of problem, just fool around, you'll have experience when you appear on more variety shows in the future."
Li Qin smiled indifferently.
The two of them were indeed unfamiliar. If it weren't for "the same man", they might not know each other at this time.
"Anyway, I want to thank you today. However, thank you, it won't affect other things."
"Other things? What are they?"
"You know it in your heart, why ask more."
The two women looked at each other's eyes and saw a hint of "hostility".
Fortunately, at this time, the assistants of both of them drove over. They looked at each other deeply, and then turned around and got into the car without saying anything.
Watching Li Qin's car go away, Song Zhi thought about it and called Meng Bai.
The other party seemed to be busy, and waited for a while before the call was connected.
"Are you busy?" Song Zhi asked curiously.
"Someone from Tencent Video came over in the afternoon and talked about cooperation on a drama. Let's go out for dinner in the evening."
Meng Bai's voice came from the phone. Listening to the background sound, some noise could indeed be heard vaguely.
"Ah, sorry, I don't know." Song Zhi hurriedly said, "Did I disturb you?"
"It doesn't matter, your call is not a disturbance."
Song Zhi heard the words, and his heart was sweet, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"What do you want to talk to me about?" Meng Bai asked.
"It's nothing. I just suddenly missed you." Song Zhi said softly, "By the way, will you go to the premiere of Teacher He's movie next month?"
"Did you invite me?"
"Yes."
"Of course I will go."
"Okay." Song Zhi smiled and said, "Then I won't bother you anymore. Go on with your work."
After hanging up the phone, she couldn't help but smile again, and then began to enjoy the next meeting.
On this side, Meng Bai had just put down his phone, and before the screen went dark, another call came in.
Glancing at the screen, he couldn't help but sigh. It was from Li Qin.
After holding the phone and counting silently for a few seconds, Meng Bai finally answered the call.
"Are you busy?" Li Qin's voice came out, asking a familiar question.
"Someone from Tencent Video came over this afternoon to discuss a collaboration on a play. Let's go out for dinner tonight."
"Ah, did I bother you?" Li Qin hurriedly said, "Then you go ahead and we'll talk after we're done."
"It's okay." Meng Bai said, "I'm tired of talking, so I'm using Teacher Li's voice to recharge."
"Well, can I recharge from such a distance?"
"As long as I can hear it."
In the colorful car at night, Li Qin couldn't help but smile brightly.
She didn't really have anything to do, but was stimulated by Song Zhi's words just now, so she suddenly wanted to hear this guy's voice.
Although Meng Bai said he didn't care, Li Qin knew he was just trying to appease her.
"Are you done now?"
"It's okay."
"It's okay, I have to save some for myself." Li Qin said with a bright smile, "You go ahead and do your work. I'll move to Beijing North at the end of the year, so I can be close to you to 'recharge'." "Okay
, I'll wait for you."
After hanging up the phone, Meng Bai let out a long sigh.
It was really a ghost, how come these two girls thought of calling at the same time today.
Fortunately, they were both very sensible. When they heard that he was "busy", they said a few words and ended the conversation.
After deleting the two call records on his phone, Meng Bai left the hotel lobby, walked a few steps along the corridor, and opened the door of a private room.
"You're back."
In the room, Li Yitong looked at Meng Bai who came in and smiled with crescent eyes.
