Chapter 1116 I don’t understand, I really don’t understand!

After Wang Xiuying and Yang Hongxia finalized the compensation terms, they began to let Shanghai Satellite TV promote the new TV series.

If a TV station wants to boost its ratings for a TV series, it will of course promote it on its own flagship variety show.

Therefore, Yang Hongxia called together Li Xiaodong and other main creative staff members, and held a meeting with their colleagues from the Propaganda Department to finalize the next publicity plan.

"Modu TV attaches great importance to this opportunity to boost ratings. In order to make the afternoon slot a second prime time slot, they have invested too much energy and money in it. If they fail this time, they will have to readjust their status again. It will take at least one or two years for this to succeed."

Therefore, Shanghai Satellite TV will pay more attention to the promotion of this drama than Earthling Studio. When Li Xiaodong and other main creative staff members participate in their variety show, Yang Hongxia is not afraid that they will be neglected.

What's more, now Li Xiaodong, Lu Bingyang and Zhou Xiang are either first-tier or quasi-first-tier stars. They are big names who will be given special treatment by the program crew wherever they go.

What's more, there is a Lin Fan above them who suppresses the whole audience. Who would be so desperate to offend the Earthling Studio for no reason? "I'm not worried about Li Xiaodong. He has always performed well in variety shows. He just needs to perform normally this time. But I'm more worried about you two, Lu Bingyang and Zhou Xiang."

Lu Bingyang is actually quite introverted, the kind of person who works hard and doesn't seek credit. He doesn't fight for the spotlight on variety shows, and can easily make the show a dull one if he's not careful.

As for Zhou Xiang, Yang Hongxia didn't allow her to participate in variety shows because she was young. This was to prevent her from developing the wrong idea that "acting is not as fast as starring in variety shows" after participating in too many variety shows.

Later, I was really busy filming and had no time to participate in other people's variety shows. I was only a regular guest in Lin Fan's "Longing for the Yard".

Although she performed well in "The Yard of Longing", other people's variety shows are different from her own after all. In her own variety shows, no matter it is editing or camera shots, all aspects will be taken into consideration for Zhou Xiang, and there will be no devilish editing that would have a bad impact on Zhou Xiang.

But other people’s variety shows are different.

Moreover, the three major variety shows of Shanghai Satellite TV do not invite just one group of guests at a time. When Li Xiaodong and his friends go to participate, they will work together with other guests to form a program.

If you are unlucky, there may be several artists gathered together, which is really lively! If you don’t fight for your own shots, even if you are a top star, the program team will not dare to cut all your shots, but the final broadcast effect will be unsatisfactory.

As luck would have it, of the three programs, two would be performed together with artists from other companies, and only one program invited Lai Siu-tung and others individually.

Zhou Xiang was both excited and nervous.

The excitement lies in the fact that the three flagship variety shows of Shanghai TV are all Zhou Xiang’s favorite variety shows. It is no exaggeration to say that he is a loyal fan of these three shows.

The tension lies in the fact that Zhou Xiang really has no idea what twists and turns are involved when recording a variety show.

Lu Bingyang also asked: "Sister Xia, don't you have a script in advance?"

Yang Hongxia shook her head: "Nowadays, variety shows generally cancel the script unless they want to promote a certain person and let others play supporting roles for him. Because I don't know when it started, the audience suddenly fell in love with the real appearance of celebrities in private without scripts."

Or your own company can prepare a character for you. As long as you don’t make any mistakes in the show, the program team won’t care about you.

In fact, it's better to fail! Wouldn't the show have a bigger gimmick this way? As for when this change started, Li Xiaodong, Lu Bingyang and Zhou Xiang all thought: Wasn't it Fan Ge's "Longing for the Yard" that started it? Lin Fan's "Longing for the Yard" actually brought a new trend to Chinese variety shows. Many people actually didn't expect that the audience's aesthetic and appreciation habits, which had been cultivated for so many years, would change so quickly and so thoroughly.

Various variety shows that were performed according to scripts were soon replaced by variety shows without scripts and supported by the real personalities of celebrity artists. Variety shows of all types began to flourish, and they emerged like mushrooms after a rain.

It would be too far-fetched to attribute all of this to Lin Fan. But it is undeniable that Lin Fan's appearance pushed the gears at the right time, making this transformation come more rapidly.

Therefore, the variety shows that are popular now, such as the three flagship variety shows of Shanghai TV, basically quickly reorganized their program content after seeing such signs. After experiencing a long period of pain, they ushered in a new round of popularity.

In short, popular variety shows do not have scripts. They rely entirely on the on-the-spot performance of the guests, as well as the host's hosting skills and ability to save the situation.

Similarly, these variety shows can no longer invite only two or three guests as they did in the past, but instead try to expand the guest lineup as much as possible to avoid dull occasions.

Under this trend, a group of excellent program hosts and likable variety show guests have emerged.

Of the three major variety shows on Shanghai TV, two are outdoor variety shows and only one is an indoor variety show. But Lu Bingyang and Zhou Xiang have never participated in either outdoor or indoor variety shows.

Fortunately, Lai Siu-tung participated in one of them.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Therefore, Li Xiaodong patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, Sister Xia, I will take good care of Brother Lu and Sister Xiangxiang! I will never let anyone bully them!"

Yang Hongxia rolled her eyes and said, "Who is so blind as to bully you? So you didn't understand what I said?"

"Hey, Sister Xia, isn't this what you meant?" Li Xiaodong was confused.

Lu Bingyang and Zhou Xiang also looked at each other, obviously confused: So Sister Xia is not worried that we will not perform well on the show? Then what is Sister Xia worried about? "Of course not!" Yang Hongxia said earnestly, "You should know that you are not only representing yourself now, but also representing the Earthling Studio, and even more so, Brother Fan! I am worried that after you are on the show, everyone will flatter you, causing the audience to have a bad impression of you and Brother Fan!"

"I'm not worried about Li Xiaodong. You're very good at making jokes and can get along with anyone. I'm worried about Lu Bingyang and Zhou Xiang because they're too reserved and introverted, and they're treated too favorably by the production team. In the eyes of the audience, this is all a sign of being a big shot, don't you understand?"

Li Xiaodong, Lu Bingyang, and Zhou Xiang all shook their heads: We don’t understand, we really don’t understand!
