Once upon a time, when he had just traveled to this world, facing the genetic collapse time limit set by the system, Wei Lan considered going on a parent-child show to act cute and earn favor points.
Later, after opening the door to a new world and discovering that holographic movies could be shot, Wei Lan's source of points was no longer a problem. Naturally, she felt that she would have nothing to do with this path in her life. Unexpectedly, one day she would still take the path of participating in parent-child programs to be cute...
However, agreeing to be on the show is not an immediate thing. The focus of "Family with Two Children" is the tacit understanding between young stars and their second-child brothers and sisters. This notice is open to celebrities and idols in the entire entertainment industry. As long as you meet the condition of having second-child brothers and sisters at home, you can sign up. The deadline is half a month later. After the guests are confirmed, the program team will start filming and publicity planning.
Every member of the limited group has an indicator to participate in variety shows every quarter. Other optional announcements are to participate with teammates in the group. Wei Sijia was not very interested in any of them, but after seeing this variety show, she was very excited and thought of going with Wei Lan.
Wei Lan calculated the time and thought it was a good idea. It would not delay the filming of the movie, and the filming would almost be completed and the post-production would begin at that time. The broadcast of the program could serve as a warm-up promotion for the movie.
Thinking of this, Wei Lan couldn't help but sigh: Why does she, as the director, have to appear on variety shows to promote her films every time they are released? When will the actors in her films mature enough to use their star power to promote their films?
After finishing that stuck crying scene, the rest of the filming went smoothly.
Compared to Lu Wei's transformation from confusion to determination, which Wei Lan thought was the most difficult to grasp, Wei Sijia was able to accomplish it easily because of her personal mentality.
On June 30th, the last day of June, "The Queen" was wrapped up after a month of filming and entered the post-production stage.
From then on, it was basically all Wei Lan's work.
Regarding the soundtrack of this film, although I had a pleasant collaboration with Master Nie Chengan last time, this film has a completely different rhythm. To highlight the fast-paced life in the city, the most suitable soundtrack is naturally pop songs.
During the filming of the movie, Wei Lan's playlist changed again and became pop music.
If she chooses pop music, it will be much more convenient this time. After she has selected the song, Wei's public relations department will go out to negotiate the copyright fees. The movie can also promote the song, so not a lot of money is spent in this regard. When editing, Wei Lan can directly put in the music she thinks is suitable.
By the beginning of July, it was finally time to record "Family with Second Child".
The program lasts for two days and three nights. The program involves traveling to a scenic tourist town and carrying out some activities there. The specific content of the activities was not disclosed by the program organizer for the sake of effect.
After returning from the show, Wei Mingjie and his wife asked about their situation with interest. They saw Wei Sijia's expression which was hard to describe, while Wei Lan looked very tired. "The first episode of the show will be edited in three days. You can watch it then."
"Family with Second Child" is a parent-child program recently launched by Citrus TV. Unlike other traditional parent-child programs that invite celebrity parents to bring their children to the show, it finds celebrities who have siblings aged four to six at home and brings their second child to the show.
There are some contradictions and conflicts in this, the relationship between the brother and sister with a huge age span, as a star is busy with his career, how is the relationship with his younger siblings at home? How do they get along? Most of them can be used for show effects.
The preliminary promotional video was produced and posted online before the end of Wei Lan and her team's filming journey, announcing the participating celebrity guests, which immediately attracted a lot of attention on the Internet.
Because the four groups of guests invited are all popular stars, including the popular top star Qiao Jiamu, folk singer Ren Xiu, variety show host Han Qianwei, and Wei Sijia, who debuted in a girl group and just won the Best Director's New Film Actress award.
Handsome men and beautiful women bring cute babies with them, and what the idols’ younger brothers and sisters look like are things that make the audience very curious.
On July 8, the variety show was officially broadcast on Orange TV at 8pm in the prime time.
The audience can watch it on TV or in a hologram. However, watching this kind of video variety show in a hologram is not holographic. It is just like watching TV in a customizable scene. However, if many viewers do not plan to do other things while watching, most of them are accustomed to watching it in a hologram because sending barrage is more convenient and faster.
Accompanied by a playful and pleasant music, the title "Second Child in the Family" emerged. The rounded font and playful and cute border have highlighted the nature of the program.
"In this program, our celebrity brothers and sisters brought their babies to Lin'an Town, a leisurely town located in Yuhu, Province D. It is far away from the hustle and bustle and has beautiful scenery. The residents mainly work in tea and fisheries..."
The drone's long-range view swept across the entire Lin'an town. Wooden, original fishing boats could be seen on the turquoise lake, fishermen were working on the shore, and behind was a hillside with houses and tea plantations. The beautiful and quiet scenery made the audience feel a sense of ease and yearning.
After sweeping across the town, the camera switched to the lakeshore, where a speedboat appeared and the first guest arrived.
A subtitle appeared next to it: 'Who will arrive first?'
The boat stopped, but the camera did not show the guest's face at first. Instead, it shot his feet. He was wearing casual pants, and next to him was a little boy in jeans.
The picture was divided into four at this time. In each perspective, there appeared the back of an adult holding a child, two men and two women. They got off different means of transportation such as boats and cars. Then the camera slowly pulled up, and four guests who were already known to the audience appeared on the screen.
'Jojo! ! '
'Jia Jia, I love you! '
'Weiwei is beautiful!'
"Mr. Ren, let us see your sister!"
Sometimes there are some strange elements mixed in among the fans...
The scene changed, and the host Zhu Hao appeared in the camera, smiling brightly and speaking in a cheerful voice: "Hello, audience friends, you are now watching the large-scale parent-child interactive program "Family with Two Children"!"
Zhu Hao is one of the popular hosts of Citrus TV. His appearance here shows how much the planners value this program.
"Now that our four guests have all arrived, let's go and say hello to their... younger brothers and sisters!"
In a small pavilion, the four guests had already met, and as Zhu Hao approached, they completed the greeting process of shaking hands and saying hello to each other.
The cute baby pendants they each carried also appeared in the audience's field of vision. The guests were two men and two women, and the children they brought were also two men and two women. However, folk singer Ren Xiu was the younger sister, and Han Qianwei's was the younger brother.
As for why it is called a pendant...
The camera zoomed in on each celebrity guest’s younger brothers and sisters.
Ren Xiu’s fans have certified him as a man who shows off his sister. At this time, his sister was naturally held in his arms. She was still sleepy and didn’t notice that she was being filmed. She rubbed her eyes in a daze and yawned. Later, a big “Sleepy” was pasted on her head.
Qiao Jiamu's younger brother, who looked a little naughty and had a good relationship with him, saw Ren Xiu's sister being held by her brother, and jumped onto his brother's back. After succeeding, he looked around and was obviously very excited in front of the camera.
In contrast to Han Qianwei's extroverted personality as the host, her younger brother seemed very shy. He kept holding on to his sister's legs. When he saw the camera turning, he quickly hid behind her, but then couldn't help but stick his head out to look out of curiosity.
When it first appeared, the barrage of comments reached a peak with the close-ups of each child.
'Sister Ren: Who am I? Where am I?'
"Qiaodi's facial features are also very delicate, and he looks very much like Qiaoqiao. Those who criticized Qiaoqiao for plastic surgery have seen this now, right?"
'Xiao Han: Observing in secret.jpg'
Finally, the camera turned to Wei Sijia and Wei Lan.
Wei Sijia looked at the other guests being teased by their younger brothers and sisters, then looked at Wei Lan who was sitting in a row with her on a chair in the pavilion. She felt her hands itching. She even seemed to be able to smell the soft milky scent on Wei Lan's body.
She really hoped that Wei Lan would come to her for a hug like other children, but if she did that, she would no longer be Wei Lan...
There is no need to say much about Wei Lan's exquisite and lovely appearance. The most special thing about her is her temperament that is different from ordinary people.
It's not the kind of maturity that comes from a precocious child, but real maturity. As a professionally successful person, she naturally has the temperament of a big boss. People admire the strong and will instinctively chase and pay attention to such people. At the same time, people also pity the weak and will spontaneously feel caring and close to cute and tender-looking cubs. When the two attributes are combined in one person, the effect is multiplied exponentially.
If others think that this child is just very cute and has a good temperament, then in Wei Sijia's eyes, Wei Lan is the representative of the word cute itself.
Do you think that every time Wei Sijia comes home and sees Ye Luoxue sucking Wei Lan, she doesn’t feel envious?
But she knew the truth about Wei Lan's situation. Her soul was that of an adult, not as easily fooled as other human cubs. If it were a normal filming, Wei Sijia could still bear it, because although she was an image of a panda in the holographic space, her voice was that of an adult woman, and her status was that of the most authoritative director. She would naturally bring her adult soul into her heart and regard her as a good friend, a powerful authority, and a teacher-like guide.
But in reality, Wei Lan is a genuine adorable boy, who is sensible, quiet and not noisy. He seems to be thinking about the philosophy of life every day, and when he speaks, he speaks in a baby's voice. This extreme contrast of cuteness, how can anyone not like him?
At this time, the camera has moved to Wei Lan.
She was wearing a light blue knitted dress and a goose yellow cloth hat on her head. When the camera swept over, she glanced at her subconsciously, then looked away without any reaction, thinking about the editing of "The Queen".
At this moment, the audience who were watching TV were already "electrified" by this glance.
The screen was blank for a moment, and then the barrage of comments suddenly burst out:
'Ohhh what a peerless little angel this is!'
"Oh my god, what's her name? Let her debut soon. I declare that I'm a jerk!"
"So so ...
"I actually saw the 'careless elegance' described in the novel in such a young child. Come and wake me up! Have I read too many novels and over-indulged myself? ! "
Ren Xiu's sister is also very cute, but she is older than Wei Lan. She is full of innocence and childishness, giving people a completely different feeling. Even in the later period, he couldn't help but put words like "elegant" and "well-behaved" on Wei Lan.
At this time, the host Zhu Hao had already arrived at the pavilion, and the four guests stood up and greeted him when they saw him.
Now that the host has arrived, he naturally has to start introducing himself to the audience in front of the TV.
After saying hello, Zhu Hao said mischievously: "You don't need to introduce yourself. We all want to meet your brothers and sisters."
Having said that, each guest was still given an identity label later on.
"Little boy, what's your name?"
In order of distance, Zhu Hao first approached Qiao Jiamu's younger brother, who was the most lively in front of the camera.
"My name is Su Zhesheng!" The little boy stretched out his arms to the left in the puzzled eyes of the crowd, and made a familiar and childish pose to the audience. In the later stage, an animated Superman helmet was added to him at the right time: "I am Thunder Ranger Su Zhesheng!"
"Qiao Jianan! Speak properly." Qiao Jiamu's handsome face was full of headache, and the post-production added a lot of black lines on his head.
When Qiao Jiamu was still a newcomer and had just debuted, his first work was to play the role of "Thunder Cop" as Qiao Jianan called it. At that time, Qiao Jiamu had not yet stepped onto the stage to become the popular star he is today. "Thunder Cop" was a low-cost TV series for children, with immature lines, poor plot logic, and rough props. Qiao Jiamu didn't have much acting skills in the film, and fans joked that it was Qiao Jiamu's "black history."
'Qiao Jiamu: About my brother being the Thunder Ranger'
“Hahaha…” Zhu Hao laughed, thinking that this kid had great expressiveness and would be a great variety show performer. He quickly squatted down and asked, “You are Su Zhesheng, then who is your brother?”
Qiao Jianan thought about it for a moment, thinking about how his brother was when he was narcissistic: "The dream of 900 million girls."
The barrage and the scene all erupted with a burst of "Hahahaha". Qiao Jiamu simply turned his face away in embarrassment, and his ears really turned red.
Zhu Hao: "How old are you this year?"
Qiao Jianan replied: "Five and a half years old... No, I have lived for 1,800 years!"
With Qiao Jianan's rhythm, the two children behind also relaxed. Ren Xiu's sister just turned five years old. When she introduced herself, she said that she was the princess of Ula Island. Later, Ren Xiu introduced her name as Ren Zhi, which made the audience laugh. "Ula Island" is a very famous light and beautiful folk song of Ren Xiu, which has a fairy tale meaning. The lyrics mention a little princess.
"You are indeed a girl-showing maniac." "I heard from Ah Xiu before that Zhizhi means cheese!"
Han Qianwei's younger brother was still a little shy, and seemed much more gentle than Qiao Jianan. It was only after further questioning that he revealed his name was Han Linfeng.
Finally, Zhu Hao came to Wei Sijia's side, and Wei Lan, who had just left a deep impression, made the audience very excited.
'I'm curious about the name of the national sister's sister! '
'She looks so young, but she seems very mature and smart.'
When he came in front of Wei Lan, Zhu Hao couldn't help but soften his voice: "Hello, little friend, what's your name?"
Wei Lan was neither very enthusiastic nor very shy. She smiled politely at Zhu Hao and said, "Hello, my name is Wei Lan."
"Hello, Lanlan." Zhu Hao smiled and nodded to her. Then, as if he suddenly remembered something, he looked at Wei Sijia and asked, "Is it the Lan of Bolan or the Lan of Lan?"
"It's the Lan of Bolan." Wei Lan answered proactively.
"Huh?"
Subtitles were added later, and Zhu Hao's expression and the "???" in the comments were very interesting.
"What a coincidence! I heard before that Wei Lan and Wei Sijia are related. It turns out they are really sisters!"
"I see. The detective in front, please wait for me."
The barrage area was bustling with activity. Everyone knew that the 'Wei Lan' in front of them could not be the director Wei Lan. There was an age contrast, and the two were deliberately linked together, which made the audience immediately rule out the association that the two might be the same person.
Zhu Hao reacted quickly and asked Wei Lan with a deliberately strange expression: "So, I guess you are a director, right?"
Wei Sijia was originally very nervous, and she suddenly realized at this moment that it was risky for Wei Lan to accompany her on the show. Although she looked like a child now, the confidentiality agreement period had expired, and it was uncertain what would happen in the future. What if it caused a backlash from fans...
Although Wei Sijia had just entered the entertainment industry, she had also witnessed some vicious words. When she thought of this, she felt a chill in her heart. A feeling of regret occupied her mind. She even wanted to find a reason not to record and take Wei Lan away.
As a result, Wei Lan nodded and answered Zhu Hao seriously: "Yes."
Zhu Hao laughed and deliberately asked, "So you are the director who is filming with your sister now, right?"
Wei Lan nodded again and said seriously: "That's right."
At this time, Wei Lan had been photoshopped with a microphone and a clapboard to represent his identity as a director, and was labeled "Director Wei Lan", just like Qiao Jianan's Superman helmet and Ren Zhi's princess crown.
Because of the previous experience of Qiao Jianan, everyone thought that Wei Lan in front of them had this incident because he had the same name as the popular director Wei Lan, and his sister was filming under the director, so he might even be a fan of the director.
Zhu Hao thought he understood, and did not expose the child's vanity. Instead, he smiled and said, "Director Wei, if there is a suitable role in the future, can you consider me?"
Wei Lan looked at him carefully, and Zhu Hao deliberately cooperated by turning his head left and right and striking some narcissistic and cool poses.
"Okay." Wei Lan nodded in agreement.
Her serious look instantly increased the entertainment effect of the show, and the comments were full of excitement:
'I didn't expect that this little cutie has the same name as the great director!'
'I, Binsu Su Yining, declare that you are the four-year-old version of Wei Lan!'
'I, Cheng An Jian Yingxue, declare that Bin Su Yining said it well!'
Not only that, bored netizens have already touched Wei Lan’s Weibo, or directly @ her.
"Director Wei, it would be great if you could participate in "A Family with Two Children". "
'Awesome, the program team actually invited Director Wei to show up 2333'
Someone even made a panda emoticon pack:
'As we all know, Director Wei has only participated in one variety show...'
A panda man with the name "Actors Go Forward" was about to speak, but was covered by another panda man with the name "Family with Second Child": "It's me!"
Looking at the other guests and Zhu Hao who were amused, Wei Lan said innocently in his heart: I am telling the truth. If you still don't believe it, that's your problem.
That's right. At this time, no audience would believe that the Wei Lan in front of them and the director Wei Lan were the same person. The more directly Wei Lan himself admitted it, the more others thought that this was a child who, because of his admiration for someone, imagined himself to be the great director Wei Lan.
A long time later, the truth came to light, and countless viewers came back to rewatch this episode. The comments were quite exciting at that time.
However, the one who did the most work was @Zhu Hao, the 'enterprise-level understanding master' at the time, who was asked to find Director Wei to fulfill his promise to film the movie...
