The next day.
"If You Are the One" recording hall.
The host, Grandpa Meng, the guest commentator, Master Jiang, and the audience were all in their seats.
Before the program started recording, the audience who entered the venue began to talk a lot. The target of the discussion was not Grandpa Meng, the extremely famous host, but Master Jiang, who had just joined "If You Are the One".
"Wow, Master Jiang is really young and handsome. He looks even more handsome than the photos posted online."
"If I remember correctly, Master Jiang is only 24 years old this year, right? It's incredible that he has become a nationally renowned matchmaker at such a young age."
"Master Jiang must be the kind of super genius that only appears once in a thousand years!"
"The recording will start soon. I look forward to Master Jiang's performance!"
“…”
While the audience was talking about it, the director took control of the situation after confirming that all departments were ready, and then announced that the recording of the XXth episode of "If You Are the One" in 2024 would officially begin.
"Welcome to watch Jiangsu Satellite TV... "If You Are the One", please welcome host Meng Fei!"
"Welcome to watch If You Are the One on Jiangsu TV. Hello everyone, I am the host Meng Fei. Welcome everyone to the scene. Let us warmly welcome Master Jiang."
Following the introduction by Teacher Meng Fei, Jiang Feng smiled and waved to the camera, and the audience burst into cheers at the right time.
Then, as usual, Mr. Meng Fei read out a series of sponsor advertisements, and finally said, "Please welcome tonight's 24 beautiful single girls."
Then the music started, and 24 female guests who were all dressed very exquisitely came on stage in two rows. These female guests had good figures and looks, and they were carefully dressed up. Under the light, each of them looked beautiful and charming, which made the audience cheer again and again.
After the 24 female guests arrived at their respective seats, Teacher Meng Fei continued, "24 girls, welcome, please turn on your lights."
Then, under the operation of the female guests, 24 lights lit up one after another, and the dazzling lighting effects once again aroused cheers from the audience.
Jiang Feng had watched If You Are the One many times before, but the effect of watching it on TV and watching it live was different, and he found it quite novel.
When men and women play poker, they all focus on foreplay. Without sufficient foreplay, it is difficult to achieve the desired effect. The same is true for TV programs. It is impossible to get straight to the point right away. The host must chat with the commentators and the female guests for a few minutes before letting the male guests go on stage.
For example, you can talk about local customs and habits based on the current season, or expand the topic from the perspective of new sponsors, just chat casually.
Of course, whether to say it or not, it all has a script.
However, there was really no script for this recording, and everything was improvised.
As a senior host of marriage and love programs for more than ten years, Mr. Meng Fei is naturally not afraid of not finding topics, not to mention that the topic this time is ready-made.
Teacher Meng Fei said, "As we all know, the previous version of If You Are the One introduced the function of smart girls. The so-called smart girls are the ideal girls matched by the program team for male guests based on the newly introduced guest testing system.
When the male guests enter the power reversal, the system will use big data calculations to match the most suitable smart girls for each male guest and participate in the final selection.
Unfortunately, the girls matched by big data are often not the girls that the male guests are attracted to, and there are very few examples of successful relationships with smartly recommended girls.
Now, our program has been revised again. The smart girls have been changed to the best match girls. The best match girls are no longer matched by big data, but the best marriages matched personally by our Master Jiang.
Most viewers must be aware of how accomplished Master Jiang is in matchmaking. If you are still unclear, you can search for information about Master Jiang online.
I wonder if the best match girl selected by Master Jiang will be the girl chosen by the male guest? Will this best match girl keep her light on for our male guest?
Let us wait and see, please welcome male guest No. 1!"
What a boast... With the familiar entrance music, male guest No. 1 slowly descended from the elevator corridor, and the female guests at the scene all stretched their necks to watch.
Female guest No. 1 is none other than makeup artist Liu Piaopiao, who is looking forward to the appearance of the male guest. According to the program team, the matchmaker matched by Master Jiang for her is one of the many male guests, but it is unknown when he will appear.
It is possible that the first male guest to appear is her marriage match, or it is possible that her marriage match will not appear in this episode. In short, everything depends on her to discover it by herself, and this is also the biggest highlight of the show.
It's not just the female guest Liu Piaopiao who received this message. The other 23 female guests also received the same information. They all knew that their marriage partners were among the many male guests. It just depended on whether they could accurately find their marriage partners among the many male guests.
Many male guests who accepted the invitation of the "If You Are the One" program team also received basically the same information as the female guests. Among the 24 female guests on the stage, one is their marriage match. All they have to do is to find the person accurately and then leave hand in hand smoothly.
When the first male guest officially appeared, the scene was filled with thunderous applause. The female guests whispered to each other, all praising the No. 1 male guest for his handsome looks.
Maybe the program crew also wanted to have a good start, the first male guest was indeed quite handsome.
"Hello Master Jiang, hello Teacher Meng, and hello to the 24 female guests on the stage. My name is Zhang Chengwen, I am 28 years old, and I am from Chengdu, Sichuan." Zhang Chengwen was not at all stage fright and greeted them gracefully.
Teacher Meng Fei said: "Please ask the male guests to choose the girl they like."
Zhang Chengwen nodded, took the tablet computer handed over by the staff, and then carefully selected the girl he liked.
At the same time, Mr. Meng Fei introduced: "While the male guest is choosing the girl he likes, our Master Jiang will also help the male guest choose his best match girl. When he enters the power reversal, we will announce the best match girl to participate in the love selection."
Zhang Chengwen carefully compared the photos of the female guests, and then selected female guest No. 8 Chen Tianyue as his dream girl based on his own feelings.
After the male guest has chosen the girl he likes, the first stage begins.
Teacher Meng Fei asked: "What is your first question?"
Zhang Chengwen said: "I hope we can cook together when we have time."
Teacher Meng Fei said: "It seems that our male guest No. 1 is also a great chef!"
Zhang Chengwen said modestly: "I don't deserve it, I don't deserve it, I just like cooking, and I think cooking with the person I love is actually a very romantic thing."
Hearing this, several female guests raised their hands.
Teacher Meng Fei said: "Number 13."
Female guest No. 13 said: "Hello everyone, I am female guest No. 13 Zhao Xuemei, 25 years old, from Zhuhai, Guangdong. I think what the male guest said is very good. I also like cooking and enjoy sharing delicious food with others.
Male guest, I am willing to cook delicious dishes with you and experience such an interesting and romantic activity together. However, my knife skills are not very good, so you may be responsible for cutting the vegetables. Is that okay? "
Zhang Chengwen smiled and said, "Of course no problem!"
Teacher Meng Fei said: "Number 8."
Female guest No. 8 said: "Hello everyone, I am female guest No. 8 Chen Tianyue, 26 years old, from Chengdu, Sichuan. I am very interested in the male guest's proposal, but I must be honest that I know nothing about cooking. In the kitchen, I often cook some simple food.
So, if we cook together, I'm afraid I can only help the male guest, just wash vegetables or peel garlic, I wonder if the male guest will dislike my clumsiness? "
This was the girl he had chosen, so Zhang Chengwen quickly said, "I don't mind. Cooking together is about enjoying the company of others. As for who does the cooking, that's not the point."
Teacher Meng Fei said: "The male guest is very good at speaking, No. 21."
Female guest No. 21 said: "Hello everyone, I am female guest No. 21 Li Zihe, I am 24 years old and from Wuhan, Hubei. The male guest's suggestion is indeed interesting. Cooking together will make you feel at home. Although my cooking skills are average, I am willing to cook with the person I like."
Jiang Feng smiled and said, "This suggestion from the male guest has won the favor of the female guests. Up to now, no female guest has turned off the light!"
Teacher Meng Fei said: "The female guests all want to have a warm home. The male guest's suggestion is exactly what the female guests want, so they will naturally not turn off the lights so hastily."
At this point, Mr. Meng Fei looked at the male guest and asked, "What is your second question?"
Zhang Chengwen said: "I hope my significant other doesn't mind me talking in my sleep."
Teacher Meng Fei said: "Many people talk in their sleep. I remember when I was in high school, there was a classmate who loved to talk in his sleep at night.
His sleep talking is different from others. Others mumble unconsciously something that others can't understand, but my classmate talks very clearly in his sleep. If you talk to him, he can communicate with you, just like he is talking normally.
But when he woke up the next day, he had no recollection of what he had said the night before. It was very strange. May I ask if the male guest's sleep talking is unconscious mumbling that others cannot understand, or is it like my high school classmate's sleep talking that can communicate with others?"
Zhang Chengwen said somewhat embarrassedly: "Teacher Meng, I talk in my sleep just like your high school classmate. Anyway, I am unconscious. When my classmates told me at first, I didn't believe it until they recorded my conversation with them. Then I knew that I had the habit of talking in my sleep at night."
At this time, several female guests raised their hands.
Teacher Meng Fei said: "Female guest number 1."
Female guest No. 1 said: "Hello everyone, I am female guest No. 1 Liu Piaopiao, from Guilin, Guangxi. I would like to ask the male guest, are you talking in your sleep or sleepwalking?"
Zhang Chengwen confirmed: "It was really just talking in sleep, not sleepwalking."
Female guest No. 1 Liu Piaopiao said: "It would be fine if he didn't sleepwalk. If he did, it would be quite scary!"
Teacher Meng Fei said: "Number 16."
Female guest No. 16 said: "Hello everyone, I am female guest No. 16 Zhou Yi, from Changsha, Hunan, and I am a chief physician. The male guest talked in his sleep at night, which may be due to excessive mental stress.
Nowadays, many people suffer from poor sleep quality at night due to work pressure. When the sleep quality decreases significantly, they may often talk in their sleep.
For sleep talking caused by excessive stress, you can relieve stress by combining work and rest and doing more things that interest you.
In this way, the situation of excessive stress is improved, the body is more likely to feel tired, and the sleepiness will accelerate the speed of falling asleep, and it is less likely to talk in sleep at night. Therefore, people who show signs of excessive stress need to adjust their bodies in time. "
Zhang Chengwen said: "Thank you, I will pay attention to it."
Teacher Meng Fei: "Okay, let's move on to the second part and see what our male guest does for a living. Please watch the video."
The stage lights dimmed and the screen switched to video footage.
The pictures show the beautiful scenery of Chengdu, Sichuan, with wide streets, ancient alleys and bustling crowds, and the music is warm and moving.
