Chapter 30: Wen Yu is the most talented actor he has ever seen
Su Xingye picked a few fans on Weibo to interact with him. He waited quietly for a while before opening the hot search.
What he didn't expect was that the name "Wen Yu" once again occupied the top spot on Weibo's hot search list.
Who the hell is this Wen Yu?
Su Xingye didn't expect that an imposter who imitated Wen Yu could be on the Weibo hot search again and again. Just when he wanted to click on the Weibo hot search to take a look, the director sent a staff member from the program team to call him.
So Su Xingye could only put the matter of "Wen Yu" aside for the time being, and forced himself to leave with the staff.
"Challenger Rules" is a program that started low and ended high. In the early days of the program, there were not many investors, and the directors could only invite some unknown small stars.
There are two reasons why it became so popular.
The first and most important reason is that the rules of the game of "Challenger Rules" are novel.
The program team's setting is the "law mutation mechanism", and the core point is the "timed mutation law."
This term sounds very high-sounding, but in layman's terms, it means "the program team automatically activates a new rule every hour." For example, all guests are prohibited from using their right hands to complete tasks, all guests must walk backwards, and the selected guests must walk blindfolded for ten minutes...
The new rules are very random, and the guests don’t know what the next new rule will be, which adds a new highlight to "Challenger Rules".
In addition to the "timed mutation" rule, the program team will also set different task rules based on the theme of each episode.
For example, the "Law of Sudden Events" - when a team is ahead by a certain number of points, a hidden mechanism will be triggered.
Another example is the "audience voting rule" - initiate a vote during the live broadcast to select the restrictions that the audience most wants to see.
Because of its relatively novel game rules, "Challenger" attracted a lot of attention from netizens after the first episode was aired.
The second reason why "Challenger Rules" became so popular is that the program team broadcasts the entire process live and there is no script. No matter how big the star's status is who comes to participate in "Challenger Rules", the program team will treat them equally and will never favor anyone.
It is precisely because of these two reasons that "Challengers Rules" gained a large number of loyal fans after the recording of the first season was completed. Because the first season of the show was so popular on the Internet, the director had start-up funds when recording the second season. He invited many famous stars to participate in "Challengers Rules". Therefore, after the second season of "Challengers Rules" was broadcast, its popularity has always been ranked first.
Until the "Pick Me" talent show came out.
Yesterday was the first day of the talent show "Pick Me". With the return of "Song Shinian" as a mentor, the show received countless attentions. Later, with the appearance of "Wen Yu", it surpassed "Challenger Rules" on the first day of its broadcast and became the number one variety show.
Not only that, the top five hot searches on Weibo were also dominated by the program "Pick Me".
This made the director of "Challenger Rules" very jealous.
He and the director of "Pick Me" were classmates and they had a good personal relationship. Before the live broadcast of "Challenger Rules" officially started, the director of "Challenger Rules" walked to his room and called the director of "Pick Me".
"……Hello?"
The director of "Pick Me" had just finished a live broadcast, and there was some obvious joy in his voice.
"Old Li, I want to ask you something."
The director of "Challenger Rules" is surnamed Zhang.
When he and the director of "Pick Me" talk on the phone, they usually call each other by their last names. He calls the other person "Lao Li" and the other person calls him "Lao Zhang".
"What's up?"
They had known each other for so many years, so Director Li could naturally tell what the other person wanted to ask, but he deliberately did not respond. Instead, he guided the other person to ask him questions actively.
When "Challenger Rules" was first broadcast, Lao Zhang showed off in front of him a lot. Now the situation has changed, and the "Pick Me" talent show he is responsible for has attracted the attention of countless netizens. Naturally, he will not miss this rare opportunity.
"I won't beat around the bush with you."
Director Zhang was afraid of delaying the live broadcast of "Challenger Rules," so he got straight to the point: "How did you invite Song Shinian?"
"Well..."
Director Li deliberately prolonged his tone: "It's a secret."
"Don't keep me in suspense. I'll treat you to a drink tomorrow."
Director Li and Director Zhang have a good relationship. They will treat each other to drinks when they need something from each other.
Director Li did not directly answer Director Zhang's question, but asked an irrelevant question: "Let me ask you a question first. What is your relationship with Wen Yu?"
When Director Zhang heard the name "Wen Yu", he was stunned for two seconds.
"Aren't we discussing Song Shinian's affairs? What do you mean by suddenly mentioning 'Wen Yu'?"
When talking about the word "Wen Yu", Director Zhang's voice was filled with undisguised regret.
If Wen Yu were still alive, there would be a long line of directors wanting to work with him...
"Answer me first. This question is very important."
Director Li deliberately emphasized the pronunciation of the word "important".
"I worked with Wen Yu once before..."
Thinking of the brilliant young man Wen Yu, Director Zhang's tone turned down. "He's a very talented actor. No matter how outrageous my requests were, he always understood what I meant and delivered them successfully."
The directors of "Challenger Rules" and "Pick Me" used to focus on TV dramas. In recent years, there have been no good variety shows, so they noticed the business opportunities in variety shows and switched to shooting variety shows.
Director Zhang had the honor of working with Wen Yu once. He is the most talented actor Director Zhang has ever seen.
Wen Yu is not only talented, but also hardworking.
Stars of Wen Yu's status usually use a stunt double when filming martial arts scenes, but Wen Yu has always insisted on doing it himself. Wen Yu has been injured many times while filming martial arts scenes. His arms and legs are often bruised and purple, and in severe cases, red blood will seep out.
As a director, he felt a little sorry when he saw this scene and wanted to let Wen Yu take a break for a while before continuing the recording, but the other party insisted on finishing the scene.
During the filming of the TV series, Wen Yu never complained of being tired.
