"Xu Lu, do you know that after Rui Rui got the program authorization from you, she started working on it right away?"
I heard that the first episode of "Approaching Science" will premiere this Friday, which is the day after tomorrow night..."
At this point, Dilraba suddenly smiled and said:
"Do you know what she chose for the first episode? Oh my, it's kind of funny to think about it now."
Seeing Dilraba's overjoyed expression, Xu Lu casually remarked:
"She wouldn't have chosen the 'blood-vomiting extraordinary person' story that I told you guys that day, would she?"
"No, it's a story about an old man in a mountain village who spontaneously combusted. Hahaha, Xu Lu, do you know why this old man kept spontaneously combusting?"
Reba laughed as she spoke, clearly amused by herself.
Xu Lu glanced at the girl speechlessly, wondering if she had a low threshold for laughter.
The joke hasn't even been told yet, and you've already started laughing.
However, when Reba mentioned this, Xu Lu actually remembered this story.
He nodded and said:
"Of course I know what happened. It was the old man's granddaughter who set her grandfather's clothes on fire."
"This is it, this is it. Rui Rui plans to make it into two parts to thoroughly study the bizarre incident of the octogenarian in this ancient village spontaneously combusting."
Dilraba said with an exaggerated expression:
"Actually, if you hadn't told me the answer, I would have been deeply attracted by the story and wondered if there was something strange about the old man."
But after I found out the 'truth' about it, you know how I felt? I really wanted to punch someone. I was utterly speechless…
Xu Lu smiled upon hearing this.
This is the magic of 'Approaching Science': often at the beginning of the story, the audience is drawn in by the twists and turns of the plot and can't stop watching.
But once people get closer to the science and discover the outrageous truth behind the bizarre events, the audience will realize they've been tricked and wasted two hours.
Take, for example, the case of the octogenarian who spontaneously combusted, which could have been explained in a single sentence.
The program planning was incredibly convoluted, bizarre, and captivating.
Throughout the story, various expert analyses and villagers' corroborations draw the audience deeper into the story, making it seem as if they have discovered some earth-shattering secret.
This situation and atmosphere would continue until a few minutes before the program ended, at which point the host would change the subject, saying that the experts had finally figured out the truth.
That was the old man's granddaughter, who frequently set his clothes on fire from behind, sometimes two or three times a day, sometimes dozens of times a day, leading to the bizarre incident of the old man spontaneously combusting...
Isn't that outrageous?
Feeling like you're about to vomit blood?
Stay calm, this is just a basic operation of 'getting closer to science'.
There's also a strange person who can drink hot water; the hotter the water, the more comfortable he feels.
The production team was quite surprised. After some investigation, they discovered that there was no extraordinary person at all; the man was just being stubborn!
There was also an old man who never needed to drink water, which made the production team think he was some kind of eccentric. Experts even examined his body, and the people around him were talking about it.
It turned out that although the old man didn't drink water, he always drank soup with his meals and loved sugarcane...
To be honest, just thinking about these 'exciting stories' makes Xu Lu a little excited for the show to air.
Xu Lu's decision to bring this program to the world was actually partly motivated by a desire to be a parody.
After all, it's not just us who have been fooled by this kind of show; let everyone experience the frustration of being fooled.
Xu Lu, feeling quite satisfied, suddenly remembered something else and thought to himself:
"By the way, I wonder how the program I carefully selected for the video website is going?"
After all, the value of the variety show "Where Are We Going, Dad?" far surpasses that of "Approaching Science".
Thinking of this, Xu Lu immediately dialed a number.
On the other side.
When I heard my phone ring and saw Liu Mingqian's name in the caller ID, I felt a chill run down my spine.
Previously, he would have really hoped to receive calls from this Mr. Xu more often.
This shows that Mr. Xu attaches great importance to VideoNet, and VideoNet is indeed a close relative of DaXu Culture.
However, recently, Liu Mingqian has become somewhat wary of calls from this General Manager Xu.
As for the reason, it's of course because of that variety show called "Where Are We Going, Dad?".
When he brought it up for discussion with the key employees, most of them, unaware of its potential, were not optimistic about the show's future.
Although after Liu Mingqian explained that the program was planned by General Manager Xu, a group of people fawned over him.
But this doesn't erase the fact that these guys previously made the show sound completely worthless.
This result left Liu Mingqian in a dilemma: should he or she develop the program?
Develop it, but most people are not optimistic about it, and the show obviously requires a lot of funding.
If we don't develop it, you have to understand that this is a program personally planned by Mr. Xu. Do you dare not do it?
Caught in a dilemma, Liu Mingqian's greatest hope was that Mr. Xu would forget about it, so that he wouldn't have to face this difficult choice.
But clearly, Mr. Xu hadn't forgotten, and sure enough, he's already called.
Liu Mingqian didn't expect that besides asking about the variety show, the other party would ask about other things during the call.
